Attenuated Cardiac–Ocular Phenotype of Sanfilippo Syndrome (MPS IIIA) Presenting With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and Cone-Rod Dystrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
We describe a 39-year-old woman with cone-rod dystrophy and hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy complicated by an apical aneurysm, ventricular tachycardia, and ischemic stroke, ultimately requiring heart transplantation.

Fibroblast Activation Protein Promotes Thoracic Aortic Dissection via PLAUR/ITGB1‐Mediated Pro‐inflammatory Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
This study reveals that FAP promotes thoracic aortic dissection (TAD) through a nonenzymatic mechanism involving fibroblast‐macrophage crosstalk via the FAP/PLAUR/ITGB1/FAK axis. Targeting this pathway might offer a promising therapeutic strategy for TAD.

Systematic Benchmarking of a Noise‐Tolerant Conductive Hydrogel Electrode for Epidermal Bioelectronics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 20, 9 April 2026.
General schematic of the approach. Abstract Conventional Silver/Silver Chloride (Ag/AgCl) electrodes remain the clinical standard for electrophysiological monitoring but are hindered by poor skin conformity, mechanical rigidity, and signal degradation, particularly under motion or sweat.

Differences in the Impact of Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction on Intraventricular Pressure Gradient in Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesAnimals
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common form of cardiomyopathy in cats, and heart failure occurs as diastolic dysfunction progresses. HCM in cats is broadly classified as non-obstructive and obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, depending on the

3D Bioprinted Fat‐Myocardium Model Unravels the Role of Adipocyte Hypertrophy in Atrial Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
A human‐derived 3D bioprinted fat–myocardium model is developed to investigate how adipocyte hypertrophy drives atrial dysfunction in obesity. Palmitate‐induced adipocyte hypertrophy promotes adipose dysfunction that impairs atrial cardiomyocyte metabolism and electrophysiology through both paracrine and direct interactions. This platform recapitulates

Vascularized Cardiac Tissue Engineering: From Advances in Biofabrication to Translational Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 23, 23 April 2026.
This review presents a process‐oriented framework for vascularized cardiac tissue engineering, highlighting how the coordinated design of cells, biomaterials, and biofabrication strategies enables the functional development or vascularized myocardium for disease modelling and drug discovery.

A Case of Heart Failure With Reduced Ejection Fraction Secondary to Dilated Cardiomyopathy due to Long‐Standing Untreated Acromegaly: A Case Report and Focused Literature Review

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Echocardiographic findings in dilated cardiomyopathy secondary to untreated acromegaly. (A) Apical four‐chamber view showing biventricular and biatrial dilation. (B‐C) Colour Doppler demonstrating mitral, aortic, and tricuspid regurgitation. (D) Reduced global longitudinal strain (GLS: −6.5%), consistent with severe systolic dysfunction.

The Metabolic Role of Mitochondria in the Perinatal Cardiac Development and Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesExploration, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review explores the critical role of mitochondria in heart development and cardiovascular disease. It highlights how mitochondrial maturation during embryonic‐to‐postnatal transition, regulated by oxygen and metabolic changes, shapes cardiac structure and function.

Diastolic function in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: effects of propranolol and verapamil on diastolic stiffness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), impaired left ventricular (LV) relaxation and diastolic filling have been reported. Therefore, we determined LV diastolic stiffness in nine patients with HCM before and 10 to 15 min after 0·15 mg/kg ...
