Interventional Partial Cavopulmonary Connection: Initial Clinical Experience With Acute Procedural up to Midterm Results

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Creation of a partial cavopulmonary anasthomosis in patients with isolated right‐sided heart failure or patients with cyanosis and intracardial right‐to‐left shunt and reduced blood flow in the pulmonary circulation may provide a significant ...

Impact of incomplete ventricular coverage on diagnostic performance of myocardial perfusion imaging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the context of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), there is ongoing debate on the merits of using technically complex acquisition methods to achieve whole-heart spatial coverage, rather than conventional 3-slice ...

Nationwide Survey Reveals High Prevalence of Non-Swimmers among Children with Congenital Heart Defects

open access: yesChildren, 2023
Background: Physical activity is important for children with congenital heart defects (CHD), not only for somatic health, but also for neurologic, emotional, and psychosocial development. Swimming is a popular endurance sport which is in general suitable

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Spatio-Temporal Distribution and Demographic Characteristics of Congenital Heart Defects in Guangdong, China, 2016–2020

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health, 2022
BackgroundCongenital heart defects are the most common type of birth defects and bring a heavy disease burden in China. Examining the temporal and spatial trends of congenital heart defects epidemics can give some elementary knowledge for succeeding ...

Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Endothelium in the pharyngeal arches 3, 4 and 6 is derived from the second heart field. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oxygenated blood from the heart is directed into the systemic circulation through the aortic arch arteries (AAAs). The AAAs arise by remodeling of three symmetrical pairs of pharyngeal arch arteries (PAAs), which connect the heart with the paired dorsal ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
