A Case of Atrial Septal Defect Unveiled by the Treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT We present a case of a 51‐year‐old woman with atrial septal defect (ASD) masked by pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Three months after PAH treatment with a combination of endothelin receptor antagonist and phosphodiesterase five inhibitor, the transthoracic echocardiography revealed left‐to‐right shunting through a secundum ASD.

Impact of ischemic and valvular heart disease on atrial excitation [PDF]
, 2018 Background--The influence of underlying heart disease or presence of atrial fibrillation (AF) on atrial excitation during sinus rhythm (SR) is unknown. We investigated atrial activation patterns and total activation times of the entire atrial epicardial ...

Predictive signal modeling and multi‐rate filtering in accelerated cardiac MRI
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 1, Page 585-600, January 2026.Abstract Purpose True real‐time cardiac MRI (CMR), necessary for capturing live cardiac dynamics and imaging irregular cardiac rhythms, remains challenging. In this article, we move toward real‐time CMR in multiple reconstruction frameworks via strategies to predict cardiac motion, improve computational efficiency, reduce artifacts, and preserve ...

Clinical Neuroimaging, Volume 3, Issue 1, 2026.ABSTRACT Background and purpose Detection of patent foramen ovale (PFO) has become important with the increasing use of left ventricular assist devices (LVAD) for advanced heart failure. After LVAD implantation there may be increased right to left shunting through a PFO causing hypoxemia.

Annals of Noninvasive Electrocardiology, Volume 31, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Introduction Catheter ablation for atrial tachycardia (AT) in Budd‐Chiari syndrome (BCS) presents unique challenges due to altered venous anatomy. This case demonstrates an innovative approach to overcome complete inferior vena cava (IVC) occlusion.
