Comparative analysis of metabolic and functional cardiac alterations in diet‐ and genetically induced mouse models of cardiac dysfunction

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

Genetic Diagnoses Among Congenital Anomaly Cases in Europe: Data From the EUROCAT Network

open access: yesPaediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Surveillance of congenital anomaly prevalence over time can identify new teratogens. Anomalies with a genetic cause are excluded from the monitoring. Objectives We examined temporal changes in the proportion of genetic diagnoses among cases with a congenital anomaly.

Mitral bones in mitral stenosis: A rare presentation

open access: yesJournal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2017
Pulmonary ossification is described as mature bone formation with or without marrow elements in alveolar or interstitial spaces. Pulmonary ossification is a rare late sequelae that is virtually pathognomonic of mitral stenosis. Mitral bone is nothing but

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

open access: yesExperimental 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 ±

Mitral Valve Stenosis after Open Repair Surgery for Non-Rheumatic Mitral Valve Regurgitation: a Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2016
Mitral stenosis (MS) after mitral valve repair is a slowly progressive condition, usually detected many years after the index mitral valve surgery. It is defined as a transmitral pressure gradient (TMPG) of >5 mmHg or a mitral valve area (MVA)
