Slope of the anterior mitral valve leaflet: A new measurement of left ventricular unloading for left ventricular assist devices and systolic dysfunction [PDF]
, 2014 Left ventricular assist device (LVAD)-supported patients are evaluated routinely with use of transthoracic echocardiography. Values of left ventricular unloading in this unique patient population are needed to evaluate LVAD function and assist in patient

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.

Effects of human immunodeficiency virus and metabolic complications on myocardial nutrient metabolism, blood flow, and oxygen consumption: a cross-sectional analysis [PDF]
, 2011 Background In the general population, peripheral metabolic complications (MC) increase the risk for left ventricular dysfunction. Human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV) and combination anti-retroviral therapy (cART) are associated with MC, left ...

Cardiac Imaging to Evaluate Left Ventricular Diastolic Function.
JACC Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015 Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in clinical practice is generally diagnosed by imaging. Recognition of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has increased interest in the detection and evaluation of this condition and prompted an improved

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive decline is a disabling and variable feature of Parkinson disease (PD). While cholinergic system degeneration is linked to cognitive impairments in PD, most prior research reported cross‐sectional associations. We aimed to fill this gap by investigating whether baseline regional cerebral vesicular acetylcholine transporter ...

Cardiovascular dynamics of Canadian Indigenous peoples
International Journal of Circumpolar Health, 2018 Limited understanding of Indigenous adults’ cardiovascular structure and function exists despite high rates of cardiovascular disease. This investigation characterised cardiovascular structure and function among young Indigenous adults and compared to ...

Increased baseline ECG R-R dispersion predicts improvement in systolic function after atrial fibrillation ablation. [PDF]
, 2019 BackgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction which may improve after AF ablation. We hypothesised that increased ventricular irregularity, as measured by R-R dispersion on the baseline ECG, would ...

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe
