Prophylactic Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion During Mitral Valve Repair in Patients Without Atral Fibrillation: A Meta‐Analysis of Time to Event Data

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 3, June 2026.
In patients without atrial fibrillation undergoing mitral valve repair, prophylactic left atrial appendage occlusion significantly reduces long‐term thromboembolic events and early in‐hospital stroke, without increasing mortality, although it is associated with a higher incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation.

Noonan Syndrome Spectrum Disorders Predispose to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Case Report and Critical Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 1091-1097, May 2026.
ABSTRACT RASopathies are clinically overlapping neurodevelopmental syndromes resulting from germline mutations in genes involved in the rat sarcoma/mitogen‐activated protein kinases (RAS/MAPK) pathway. Historically, RASopathies have been described by clinical phenotypes, such as Noonan syndrome and Neurofibromatosis type I.

Marfan Syndrome Associated With Intellectual Disability and Behavioral Anomalies: Further Evidence for the Effect of Compound Heterozygous Variants in FBN1 on Phenotypic Severity

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 1021-1035, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a rare connective tissue disorder characterized by involvement of the cardiovascular, ocular, and musculoskeletal systems. Pathogenic variants in FBN1 cause most of the MFS cases; however, intellectual disability (ID) is rarely observed. A non‐consanguineous Pakistani family with four affected individuals was recruited.

Reassessing Discordant Exudative Pleural Effusion in Heart Failure: A Rare Case of Occult Malignancy Uncovered by Post‐Thoracentesis Tension Pneumothorax

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Pleural effusions can be manifestations of heart failure, pulmonary embolism, infection, and malignancy. Symptom assessment, imaging, and pleural fluid analysis serve as key determinants in guiding clinical management. We present the case of a 75‐year‐old woman with a history of heart failure who developed worsening dyspnea and lower extremity

Quantitative Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion in Physiological and Pathological Hypertrophy Using Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 5, May 2026.
Myocardial hypertrophy can be classified into physiological and pathological types based on etiology, with significant differences in clinical outcomes. This study utilized myocardial contrast echocardiography to quantitatively assess myocardial microcirculatory perfusion in patients with different types of hypertrophy.
