Multiple arterial embolization from left atrial myxoma in a Maltese boy [PDF]

, 1994
Atrial myxoma is rare in adults and even rarer in children. In this article the author describes. The presentation may be with embolic, obstructive or constitutional symptoms, which may be dramatic and life-threatening.

Association of reduced peak left atrial strain with supraventricular arrhythmia in adults with congenital heart disease. [PDF]

Atrial arrhythmias are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD). In acquired heart disease, the left atrial (LA) strain has been shown to predict supraventricular tachyarrhythmias (SVT).

Beyond wound sealing: A dual‐functional adhesive nanofiber membrane promoting coagulation and osteogenesis in extraction sites

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Inspired by the suction mechanics of octopus suckers, a dual‐layer nanofiber membrane integrates antibacterial protection, strong wet adhesion, and osteogenic support, offering a bioinspired strategy for effective hemostasis and alveolar bone preservation.

Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

The Value of Left Atrial Longitudinal Strain In Evaluating Left Atrial Appendage Spontaneous Echo Contrast In Atrial Fibrillation patients [PDF]

Zagazig University Medical Journal
Background: The most prevalent persistent heart arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation (AF), is linked to a higher risk of thromboembolic stroke. The left atrial appendage spontaneous echo contrast (LAASEC) tests for thrombogenic risk and blood stasis ...

Spatial Mismatch Between Angiographic Obstruction and Plaque Destabilization in Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Conceptual Narrative Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The identification of the “culprit lesion” in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) traditionally relies on coronary angiography, assuming that the most severe stenosis, abrupt occlusion, or largest filling defect marks the site of plaque destabilization.

Long‐Term Prognostic Value of Angiography‐Derived Quantitative Flow Ratio and Radial Wall Strain in Untreated Intermediate Coronary Stenoses: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) measures angiography‐derived coronary physiology, whereas radial wall strain (RWS) characterizes cyclic lumen deformation. We investigated their complementary long‐term prognostic information in untreated intermediate coronary stenoses and assessed the internal validity of their combined prediction ...

Evaluation of myocardial function by strain echocardiography in cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy phenotypes [PDF]

Veterinary World
Background and Aim: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common cardiac disease in cats, and early detection of myocardial dysfunction remains challenging using conventional echocardiography alone.

Left Atrial Myxoma presenting as Stroke-Case Report & Review of Literature [PDF]

, 2011
Left Atrial Myxomas present as a wide variety of symptoms. We describe one such case which initially presented with hemiparesis and was diagnosed as cerebral infarction. On retrospective work up, the main cause was found to be a left atrial myxoma.
