Cardiac surgery in a patient with retroperitoneal fibrosis and heart valvulopathy, both due to pergolide medication for Parkinson's disease

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2009
Retroperitoneal fibrosis is best described as a chronic inflammatory process which may be idiopathic, but can rarely be brought about by medications, such as pergolide, used for treating Parkinson's disease.

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity

Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

Diagnostic Delay in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: Clinical Predictors and Implications for Earlier Recognition

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study aimed to assess diagnostic delay among patients with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) and identify clinical characteristics associated with delayed recognition. EGPA diagnosis was delayed by nearly five years from symptom onset in this single‐center cohort.

Assessing a Model for a Complex Systemic Disorder—The Value of Male Mice With a Supernumerary X Chromosome for Klinefelter Syndrome Research

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Direct experimental investigation of Klinefelter syndrome (KS) in patients is limited because the syndrome manifests heterogeneously and affects multiple organ systems. Studying KS therefore requires a model that captures this complexity as accurately as possible while still permitting controlled experimental manipulation ...

Elevated antistreptolysin O titer is closely related to cardiac mitral insufficiency in untreated patients with Takayasu arteritis

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background The etiology of Takayasu arteritis (TA) is unknown; however, a possible relationship between streptococcal infection and TA has been proposed.

Characterization of AF Recurrence and Substrate Health by Electrographic Flow (EGF) Consistency in EGF Mapping

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Electrographic flow (EGF) mapping is an FDA 510(k)‐cleared method for visualizing atrial activation wavefronts in atrial fibrillation (AF). Its clinical efficacy in detecting AF sources was demonstrated in the FLOW‐AF randomized controlled trial, and the underlying machine learning strategy used to develop and refine EGF source ...
