Modeling the Mitral Valve [PDF]

, 2019
This work is concerned with modeling and simulation of the mitral valve, one of the four valves in the human heart. The valve is composed of leaflets, the free edges of which are supported by a system of chordae, which themselves are anchored to the papillary muscles inside the left ventricle.

Genotypic and Phenotypic Characterization of Seven Individuals With Predicted Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 (BMP2) Haploinsufficiency

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
BMP2 haploinsufficiency is known to be associated with short stature, skeletal malformations, specific craniofacial traits and cardiac malformations. This study including individuals with predicted BMP2 haploinsufficiency provides additional insight regarding less established and sometimes controversial phenotypes such as degree of developmental delay,

Alfieri versus conventional repair for bileaflet mitral valve prolapseCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open, 2023
Objective: Mitral valve repair for bileaflet prolapse can be complex, involving multiple chords or resection. The Alfieri technique for bileaflet disease is simple but may be associated with mitral stenosis or recurrent mitral regurgitation.

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

Automated and Interpretable Patient ECG Profiles for Disease Detection, Tracking, and Discovery [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
The electrocardiogram or ECG has been in use for over 100 years and remains the most widely performed diagnostic test to characterize cardiac structure and electrical activity. We hypothesized that parallel advances in computing power, innovations in machine learning algorithms, and availability of large-scale digitized ECG data would enable extending ...

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.

Does a Smartphone‐Based ECG Recording System in Pediatric Patients With Palpitations Improve Diagnostic Yield?

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Palpitations in children are common and obtaining symptom‐rhythm correlation is diagnostic, but challenging to obtain. The AliveCor KardiaMobile monitor is a smartphone‐based single‐lead ECG event recorder with limited study in children.
