Two women presenting aborted sudden cardiac arrest as the first event of mitral valve disease [PDF]
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a relatively common valvular heart disease and is known to have a benign course. However, a certain subtype of MVP has a pathologic prognosis and can be accompanied by malignant cardiac arrhythmia causing sudden cardiac ...

ABSTRACT Background Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is a potentially curative treatment for children with hematological or immunological disorders. However, treatment‐related morbidity and mortality remain concerning. Various comorbidity indices are currently used to assess the risk of complications following pediatric HCT.

Psychotropic Polypharmacy and QT Prolonging Medications in Hospitalized Patients
ABSTRACT It is common for patients with mental illnesses to be prescribed multiple psychotropic medications to effectively manage their conditions. Psychotropic polypharmacy has been shown to potentiate and increase the risks of several adverse effects, including QT prolongation. This study aimed to investigate the prescribing trends of and differences

A novel mathematical technique to assess of the mitral valve dynamics based on echocardiography [PDF]
Purpose: The mechanics of the mitral valve leaflet as a nonlinear, inelastic and anisotropic soft tissue results from an integrated response of many mathematical/physical indexes' that illustrate the tissue. In the past decade, finite element modeling of complete heart valves has greatly aided evaluation of heart valve surgery, design of bioprosthetic ...

Overestimated Myocardial Ischemia
We introduced a case of a 69‐year‐old female patient with mitral valve prolapse with severe regurgitation. Postoperative routine ECG examination showed that the precordial leads were affected by the apical pulsation, leading to pseudo‐ST segment depression and a prolonged QT interval.
