An eikonal model with re‐excitability for fast simulations in cardiac electrophysiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Restitution properties obtained from cable‐equation simulations and anisotropic remeshing informed by local fibre orientation are combined in an eikonal model with re‐excitability. The resulting reduced electrophysiology model enables efficient simulations of recurrent activation patterns, here illustrated by atrial re‐entry ...

Culture‐Negative Infective Endocarditis Presumed due to Brucella Causing Rapid Native Aortic Valve Destruction in a Young Adult: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Culture‐negative endocarditis with features consistent with Brucella can rapidly destroy a normal aortic valve in young adults. 2023 Duke‐ISCVID criteria (clinical/imaging findings plus histopathology), supported by serology and occupational exposure enabled urgent combined antimicrobial‐surgical management without culture confirmation ...

Staging Extramitral Cardiac Damage in Mitral Annular Calcification With Mitral Valve Dysfunction.

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions
BACKGROUND Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is a progressive degenerative process associated with comorbidities and increased mortality. A staging system that considers extramitral cardiac damage in MAC may help improve patient selection for mitral ...

Permanent Cardiac Pacing in Children: A 30‐Year Follow‐Up Retrospective Study in a Single Pediatric Asian Center

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
This 30‐year retrospective study of pediatric permanent pacing found acceptable long‐term device complication rates, with epicardial leads used predominantly. Pacing‐induced cardiomyopathy occurred only in children with congenital heart disease, highlighting the need for individualized pacing strategies in this cohort and long‐term echocardiographic ...

Atherosclerosis, calcific aortic valve disease and mitral annular calcification: same or different?

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology
There are similarities in the pathophysiologic mechanisms of atherosclerosis, calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) and mitral annular calcification (MAC), however, medical treatment to slow or stop the progression of CAVD or MAC has been more elusive as ...

Response to equine cardiac adverse events during sports

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 10, Page 556-564, October 2026.
Summary Cardiac adverse events and sudden death are a feared scenario for equine veterinarians, with serious consequences for animal health, riders' safety and the social licence to operate equestrian sports. The response to equine cardiac adverse events (CAEs) during sports is poorly defined.

Handling Extensive Mitral Annular Calcification via a Minimally Invasive Right Mini-Thoracotomy Approach

open access: yes
Mitral annular calcification is a chronic and degenerative process of the fibrous base of the mitral valve. Surgical management of mitral valve dysfunction with severe annular calcification remains technically demanding and, to date, the preferred ...

Do Complex Pathologies Remain a Challenge in Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery?

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Minimally invasive mitral valve repair (MI-MVr) is the preferred treatment approach in experienced centers for mitral valve disease (MVD), offering reduced surgical trauma and fast recovery.

Mitral Valve Annuloplasty Ring Dehiscence Diagnosed Intraoperative With Real-Time 3D Transesophageal Echocardiogram

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2014
Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is often a result of the accumulation of lipids around the annulus, which can lead to degeneration and calcification of the valve.
