Mitral valve cleft associated with secundum atrial septal defect: case report and review of the literature

Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2016
Mitral valve cleft associated with secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) is uncommon. We report a 39-year-old male patient manifesting symptoms of congestive heart failure 3 months before admission. Echocardiography showed typical mitral valve prolapse and

Left Atrial Function Is Associated with Earlier Need for Cardiac Surgery in Moderate to Severe Mitral Regurgitation: Usefulness in Targeting for Early Surgery [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to determine whether assessment of left atrial (LA) function helps identify patients at risk for early deterioration during follow-up with mitral valve prolapse and mitral regurgitation.

Submaximal 2‐day cardiopulmonary exercise testing to assess exercise capacity and post‐exertional symptom exacerbation in people with long COVID

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long COVID has a complex pathology and a heterogeneous symptom profile that impacts quality of life and functional status. Post‐exertional symptom exacerbation (PESE) affects one‐third of people living with long COVID, but the physiological basis of impaired physical function remains poorly understood. Sixty‐eight people (age (mean ± SD): 50 ±

Oral White Sponge Nevus: A Rare Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT White sponge nevus (WSN) is a rare, benign genetic disorder characterized by distinctive white or gray mucosal lesions, most commonly affecting the oral cavity. Inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, WSN results from mutations in keratin genes—primarily KRT4 and KRT13.

Association of Cardiovascular Events Between Mitral Annular Disjunction and Left Atrial Reservoir Strain in Barlow's Disease

Echocardiography, Volume 42, Issue 9, September 2025.
The present study suggested that MAD and low LARS are associated with an increased risk of arrhythmia and cardiac events in patients with BD. LARS, left atrial reservoir strain; MAD, mitral annular disjunction. ABSTRACT Aims Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) has been suggested to be associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac ...

Computational estimates of annular diameter reveal genetic determinants of mitral valve function and disease

JCI Insight, 2022
The fibrous annulus of the mitral valve plays an important role in valvular function and cardiac physiology, while normal variation in the size of cardiovascular anatomy may share a genetic link with common and rare disease.
