Totally thoracoscopic closure for atrial septal defect on perfused beating hearts [PDF]
European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 2011 To investigate the feasibility and safety of non-robotically assisted totally thoracoscopic closure for atrial septal defect (ASD) on perfused beating hearts.Twenty-four patients (8-45 years, mean 14.4 ± 18.7) underwent ASD closure on beating hearts by a totally thoracoscopic approach without the aid of a robotic surgical system. Additional 72 patients

The Expanding Clinical and Genetic Spectrum of Muscle Glycogen Storage Disease 0, (GSD0B)
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Glycogen storage disorders are a group of genetic disorders affecting glucose homeostasis in the body. Muscular glycogen stores are essential for liberating glucose for energy supply during bursts of activity and sustained muscle work. Muscle glycogen storage disease 0 (GSD0B) is associated with biallelic variants in GYS1 causing muscular ...

AP2M1 Is a Candidate Gene for Microcephaly and Intellectual Disability in 3q27.1 Deletions
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Deletions of the 3q26.33q27.2 region appear to correlate with a distinct phenotype, although there are few reported cases. Here, we present seven previously unreported individuals carrying de novo 3q27 deletions (under 5 Mb), which include the AP2M1 (adaptor‐related protein complex 2, mu‐1 subunit) gene and summarize data from 12 previously ...

Trisomy 5p: Long Recognized, Rarely Published‐ Three New Cases and Review of the Literature
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Complete trisomy 5p is a rare chromosomal disorder caused by a duplication of the short arm of chromosome 5. Current data suggest that complete trisomy 5p presents as a distinct clinical syndrome including but not limited to seizures, developmental delays, facial dysmorphisms, failure to thrive, and recurrent respiratory infections.

State-of-the-Art Atrial Septal Defect Closure Devices for Congenital Heart [PDF]
Interventional Cardiology Clinics, 2019 This article describes current devices and indications for transcatheter device closure of atrial septal defect (TC-ASD) and patent foramen ovale in children and young adults. TC-ASD has a proven record of efficacy and safety, but device erosion raises questions about the relative safety of TC-ASD versus operative open heart surgical ASD closure.

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of
