Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Juvenile Mitral Stenosis Presenting as Acute Pulmonary Edema Treated with Balloon Mitral Valvotomy
Juvenile mitral stenosis is defined by poor left atrial emptying due to limited opening of the mitral-valve orifice in patients under the age of 20 years. Balloon mitral valvotomy is the current treatment of choice for juvenile mitral stenosis.

A phenomap of TTR amyloidosis to aid diagnostic screening
Abstract Cardiac amyloidosis due to transthyretin (ATTR) remains an underdiagnosed cause of cardiomyopathy. As awareness of the disease grows and referrals for ATTR increase, clinicians are likely to encounter more atypical forms of the condition in clinical practice.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled
