MITRAL VALVE REPLACEMENT ON BEATING HEART;

The Professional Medical Journal, 2018
Introduction: Cardiac reperfusion injury is a well-described complication occurringafter ischemia or following cardioplegic arrest. The primary aim of this study was to evaluateand compare safety of Mitral valve replacement on beating heart without using cross clampwith the conventional Mitral valve replacement.

Noonan Syndrome Spectrum Disorders Predispose to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Case Report and Critical Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT RASopathies are clinically overlapping neurodevelopmental syndromes resulting from germline mutations in genes involved in the rat sarcoma/mitogen‐activated protein kinases (RAS/MAPK) pathway. Historically, RASopathies have been described by clinical phenotypes, such as Noonan syndrome and Neurofibromatosis type I.

Marfan Syndrome Associated With Intellectual Disability and Behavioral Anomalies: Further Evidence for the Effect of Compound Heterozygous Variants in FBN1 on Phenotypic Severity

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a rare connective tissue disorder characterized by involvement of the cardiovascular, ocular, and musculoskeletal systems. Pathogenic variants in FBN1 cause most of the MFS cases; however, intellectual disability (ID) is rarely observed. A non‐consanguineous Pakistani family with four affected individuals was recruited.

Primary cardiac neoplasms: Coexistence of papillary fibroelastomas of the tricuspid valve and myxoma of the mitral valve

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2020
Both cardiac myxomas and papillary fibroelastomas are primary benign cardiac tumors, but it is very rare for tumors with different histologies to occur in different valves of the same heart. A 5-month-old infant underwent resection of a mitral valve mass

Isovolumic relaxation strain imaging is an accurate and sensitive approach for detection of active diastolic dysfunction: A preclinical study

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A modified approach was developed to accurately identify the isovolumetric relaxation time (IVRT) using an apical three‐chamber view. Compared with conventional echocardiography, isovolumic relaxation strain imaging (IVSI) helps to detect the earlier alternations of diastolic function in transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mice.

Quantitative planar and volumetric cardiac measurements using 64 mdct and 3t mri vs. Standard 2d and m-mode echocardiography: does anesthetic protocol matter? [PDF]

, 2015
Cross‐sectional imaging of the heart utilizing computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown to be superior for the evaluation of cardiac morphology and systolic function in humans compared to echocardiography.

TWEAK/Fn14 signaling drives oxidative cardiac injury in systemic lupus erythematosus: Evidence from patient biomarker studies, lupus mouse models, and cardiomyocyte assays

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Cardiac involvement is a major cause of morbidity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Tumor necrosis factor–like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) is elevated in SLE, but its contribution to lupus‐associated cardiac injury is unclear. We investigated the role of TWEAK/Fn14 signaling in SLE‐related cardiomyopathy and its potential as a ...

The carcinoid that doesn't select – the role of preoperative echocardiography in carcinoid heart disease

Cardiologia Hungarica
Introduction: Carcinoid heart disease (CHD) is associated with neuroendocrine tumours and carcinoid syndrome, most commonly affecting the right heart valves, potentially associated with right heart failure which determines the poor survival.
