Cardiac morphological and morphometric analysis of Ardea alba

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is a widely distributed heron species whose cardiovascular morphology remains poorly described. This study aimed to characterize the cardiac morphology and morphometry of adult A. alba. Ten specimens were analyzed using radiographic, morphometric, histological, scanning electron microscopy, and three‐dimensional ...

SOX6 is expressed in various cell lineages in the developing mouse heart and contributes to proper valvuloseptal development

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cells derived from the endocardium, epicardium, cardiac neural crest, and second heart field play a critical role in the formation of the valvuloseptal structures of the heart. Previous studies have shown that the expression of the transcription factor SOX9 in these cell populations is essential in the regulation of this process.

Coexistence of left ventricular noncompaction and double-orifice mitral valve in a patient with congestive heart failure

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2012
Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a rare cardiomyopathy. It usually presents with ventricular dysfunction, thromboembolic events and arrhythmias. An asymptomatic clinical course is also possible.

Descriptive, stratigraphic, and morpho‐functional study of the myocardium and myocardial bridges in domestic pig hearts

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart is the central organ of the cardiovascular system. The myocardium is composed of a three‐dimensional network of fibers arranged in clockwise and counterclockwise helices, which are essential for proper cardiac contraction. This study aimed to describe the stratigraphic and morpho‐functional pattern of the porcine myocardium to ...

Case‐malformed signal detection and prioritisation using EUROmediCAT data for pharmacovigilance in pregnancy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Many women take medications during pregnancy. However, the risk to the fetus from most medications is uncertain. Congenital anomalies are one of the leading causes of infant death and contribute to long‐term disability. Signal detection methods can be used to systematically identify possible medication–anomaly associations that require further ...

Dynamic impact stress analysis of a bileaflet mechanical heart valve

open access: yes, 2010
[[abstract]]Background and aims of the study: Mechanical heart valves (MHV) are widely used to replace dysfunctional and failed heart valves. The bileaflet MHV is very popular due to its superior hemodynamics. At present, bileaflet MHVs account for about

Mobile health interventions to improve adherence to oral anticoagulant treatment: A systematic review and critical analysis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Non‐adherence to oral anticoagulants (OACs) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Mobile health (mHealth) interventions have been used to improve medication adherence across the three phases of initiation, implementation and persistence.

Implementation and use of risk minimization control tools in the EU: A multistakeholder survey

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims This study characterized stakeholders' experiences with national implementation of risk minimization control tools (RMCTs), such as healthcare professional qualification, healthcare facility accreditation and medical intervention prior to treatment initiation, for eight medicinal products across eight European Union countries. Methods We conducted

Acute aortic valve insufficiency and cardiogenic shock due to an isolated giant cell inflammation of the aortic valve leaflets: case report and review of the literature.

open access: yes, 2008
Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is a well-known entity, creating aortic valve regurgitation secondary to dilatation of the aortic wall. No direct involvement of the aortic valve leaflets has yet been documented.
