Evaluation of a novel fetal echocardiography training programme in two tertiary care obstetric Centres

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Improving and maintaining high detection rates for major congenital heart disease (CHD) is a priority for successful prenatal anatomy screening programmes. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of on‐site multidimensional targeted training in fetal cardiac screening. Methods A prospective study evaluating a

Hormone therapy (HT) in women with premature ovarian insufficiency or early menopause: Time to think of a new paradigm for healthy aging. A joint FIGO and IMS position paper

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early menopause (EM) affect millions of women worldwide. Compared with normal menopause, they confer a longer duration of estrogen deficiency and are associated not only with a shorter lifespan, but with a reduced healthspan, owing to an increased risk of cardiovascular, skeletal, cognitive and ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Integrin-mediated mTOR signaling drives TGF-β overactivity and myxomatous mitral valve degeneration in hypomorphic fibrillin-1 mice

The Journal of Clinical Investigation
Mitral valve prolapse is often benign, but progression to mitral regurgitation may require invasive intervention and there is no specific medical therapy.

Autonomous Velocity Encoding (VENC) Selection Improves Precision of Quantitative Flow Measurement

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The optimal velocity encoding limit (VENC) in phase contrast MRI is subject‐specific because it depends on peak flow rate and the presence of flow jets. Currently, VENC is set manually with limited prior knowledge of the peak velocity. Setting the correct VENC might improve measurement precision or shorten scan times.

Therapeutic‐dose verapamil‐induced cardiogenic shock in an older patient: a case report

Journal of Pharmacy Practice and Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Calcium channel blocker (CCB) toxicity most commonly follows deliberate overdose. However, severe toxicity at therapeutic doses may occur in susceptible individuals. Severe CCB toxicity often presents with clinical features of bradycardia, hypotension, hyperglycaemia, and lactic acidosis.
