Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...

Sympatho‐Excitation in Pulmonary Hypertension: The Potential Role of Pulmonary Arterial Baroreceptors: An Acute Physiologic Intervention Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
Pulmonary arterial baroreceptors reflexively stimulate sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in response to elevated pulmonary artery pressure and distension. In pulmonary hypertension patients, changes in muscle SNA were proportional to changes in pulmonary haemodynamics following nebulised iloprost.

Heart‐On‐a‐Chip with Integrated Ultrasoft Mechanosensors for Continuous Measurement of Cell‐ and Tissue‐Scale Contractile Stresses

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
We present a heart‐on‐a‐chip platform embedded with ultrasoft mechanosensors for real‐time, multi‐scale stress mapping in engineered cardiac tissues. The system enables simultaneous quantification of local cell‐generated stresses and global tissue contractile forces.

Deep learning assessment of fetal brain maturation on 3D ultrasound volumes in early‐onset fetal growth restriction

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To quantify fetal brain maturation in fetuses with early‐onset fetal growth restriction (FGR) by estimating gestational age (GA) based on the appearance of gyrification and individual brain structures from three‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound volumes using a deep‐learning model trained on optimally developing subjects.

Anti‐desmoglein‐2 autoantibodies do not discriminate between UK boxer dogs with and without arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evidence regarding the diagnostic utility of serum anti‐desmoglein‐2 (DSG2) autoantibodies for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in boxer dogs is conflicting. Methods Prospective standardised evaluation of apparently healthy boxer dogs for ARVC was performed at three referral centres, including blood pressure ...

A new strategy of construction of porcine myocardial infarction model for preclinical research

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
This study proposes a strategy based on the anatomical classification of the porcine left coronary artery (LCA) to establish a stable and reproducible myocardial infarction (MI) model for preclinical research. A combination of LCA classification into nine types via angiography, screening of candidate subtypes, and application of a novel embolic ...

Evaluation of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function

Cardiology Clinics, 1990
Doppler echocardiography can provide insight into the diastolic properties of the left ventricle. The hemodynamic origins of the diastolic mitral flow velocity profile are reviewed and Doppler information is compared to other measures of left ventricular diastolic function. Factors affecting the mitral diastolic flow velocity in both normal populations
