Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Perventricular Device Closure of Native Congenital Muscular Ventricular Septal Defects in Small Infants   $\hspace{0.17em}$ ≤ 5 kg: Single‐Center Study of the Risk Factors for Failure of the Intervention and Non‐Optimal Outcome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Perventricular device closure of muscular VSD in small infants is a less invasive option than surgical closure under cardiopulmonary bypass and offers better outcomes than palliative pulmonary artery banding. However, the specific risk factors that could affect procedural success and optimal outcomes have not been ...

Degenerative mitral valve regurgitation: best practice revolution [PDF]

, 2017
Degenerative mitral valve disease often leads to leaflet prolapse due to chordal elongation or rupture, and resulting in mitral valve regurgitation. Guideline referral for surgical intervention centres primarily on symptoms and ventricular dysfunction ...

Transcatheter Management of Severe Paravalvular Leak in the Inferior Vena Cava Prosthesis of the TricValve Bicaval Valve System

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a 74‐year‐old female with a history of mechanical aortic and mitral valve implantation and non‐Hodgkin lymphoma. She presented with right sided heart failure due to severe functional tricuspid regurgitation and was treated with transcatheter TricValve bicaval system implantation.

Collagen birefringence assessment in heart chordae tendineae through PS-OCT [PDF]

, 2017
Degenerative mitral regurgitation is a serious and frequent human heart valve disease. Malfunctioning of this valve brings the left-sided heart through a significant increase of pressure and volume overload.

MELD score predicts outcomes in patients with advanced heart failure: A longitudinal evaluation

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 839-847, April 2025.
Abstract Aims Advanced heart failure (AHF) is characterized by recurrent episodes of haemodynamic instability and frequent hospitalizations, leading to a progressive decline in quality of life and high mortality rates. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of the model for end‐stage liver disease (MELD) score and its variations in ...
