Cardiac structure and function in psoriasis: A cross‐sectional analysis of the PSOCADIA study
Individuals with well‐treated psoriasis exhibited a higher burden of myocardial dysfunction (GLS < 16%) compared with controls, independent of cardiometabolic comorbidity. The prevalence was similar across psoriasis severity, highlighting the importance of cardiovascular assessment in all patients with psoriasis. Abstract Background Psoriasis is linked

Beyond Blood Sugar: How Left Atrium Strain Predicts Cardiac Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes
Speckle tracking echocardiography is an innovative imaging technique that evaluates myocardial motion, including the function of the left atrium (LA). The assessment of the left atrium’s function across its dimensions can have diagnostic and prognostic ...

Changes in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging [PDF]
Objectives: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics ...

ABSTRACT We describe the first natural outbreak of infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) in farmed Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in Norway. IPN was originally described in young salmonids, but the greatest losses have historically occurred in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) following sea transfer despite high vaccination coverage.

AimsSleep disordered breathing (SDB) is known to cause left atrial (LA) remodeling. However, the relationship between SDB severity and LA dysfunction is insufficiently understood and may be elucidated by detailed feature tracking (FT) strain analysis of ...

A Reassessment of Prophylactic Antibiotics in Low‐Infection‐Risk Electrophysiology Procedures
ABSTRACT Certain electrophysiology (EP) procedures are associated with minimal tissue disruption and do not involve permanent transvenous leads. As a result, these interventions carry a lower risk of device‐ or procedure‐related infection. These procedures include placement of implantable cardiac monitors, leadless pacemakers, and left atrial appendage

Impact of systemic diseases on periodontal remodeling: Mechanisms, mediators, and clinical relevance
Abstract Background Periodontal remodeling is a continuous, adaptive process essential for maintaining the structural and functional integrity of periodontal tissues. While external factors such as bacterial biofilm, excessive forces, and poor oral hygiene are recognized triggers of periodontal pathologies, they do not fully explain their persistent ...

Arrhythmogenic isolated left atrial cardiomyopathy
The atrial structure or substrate of patients with atrial arrhythmias can present very differently, and also, the “phenotype” of the arrhythmia cannot explain these differences.
