Left subclavian-left coronary artery anastomosis for anomalous origin of the left coronary artery
From 1972 to 1987, seven patients, from two to 28 months of age, underwent left subclavian artery-left coronary artery anastomosis for anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary trunk. All of these infants, median age 4 months, had severe congestive heart failure caused by anterolateral myocardial infarctions.

Subpar reporting of pre‐analytical variables in RNA‐focused blood plasma studies
Pre‐analytical variables strongly influence the analysis of extracellular RNA (cell‐free RNA; exRNA) derived from blood plasma. Their reporting is essential to allow interpretation and replication of results. By evaluating 200 exRNA studies, we pinpoint a lack of reporting pre‐analytical variables associated with blood collection, plasma preparation ...
