Cardiovascular features of possible autonomous cortisol secretion in patients with adrenal incidentalomas [PDF]
Background: Low-grade incomplete post-dexamethasone cortisol suppression in patients with adrenal incidentalomas – recently defined as possible autonomous cortisol secretion (pACS) – has been associated with increased cardiovascular events and mortality.

ABSTRACT The rare X‐linked female‐restricted Hardikar syndrome (HDKR, OMIM # 301068) is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies including orofacial clefts, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and cardiac anomalies, but cognitive and neurobehavioral development is rarely impaired.

Left ventricular remodeling patterns in children with metabolic syndrome
Introduction. Pathological left ventricular (LV) remodelling in children with metabolic syndrome (MS) is associated with a significant increase in cardiometabolic risk. However, data regarding the prevalence of LV remodelling patterns in children with MS

ABSTRACT Arrhythmias affect approximately half of patients with Costello syndrome (CS, OMIM # 218040), with non‐reentrant atrial tachycardia being the most common. This case describes an infant with Costello syndrome carrying the pathogenic HRAS c.34G>A (p.G12S) variant who developed early‐onset, drug‐refractory multifocal atrial tachycardia (MAT ...

Diagnostic value of R wave in aVL lead in left ventricular hypertrophy
Introduction: left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is defined as the increase in the thickness of the wall or the interventricular septal portion (or both). This entity represents an important risk factor that is related to the increase in mortality.

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.

The Role of Natriuretic peptides in Renovascular Hypertension and its correlation with the Evolution of Myocardial Hypertrophy [PDF]
The interactions between pressure and volume overload that occur in hypertension lead to different patterns of cardiac hypertrophy and to increase in natriuretic peptides (NPs).
