Heatmap-based 2D Landmark Detection with a Varying Number of Landmarks [PDF]
Mitral valve repair is a surgery to restore the function of the mitral valve. To achieve this, a prosthetic ring is sewed onto the mitral annulus. Analyzing the sutures, which are punctured through the annulus for ring implantation, can be useful in surgical skill assessment, for quantitative surgery and for positioning a virtual prosthetic ring model ...

Abstract CNOT2 haploinsufficiency underlies a rare neurodevelopmental disorder named Intellectual Developmental disorder with NAsal speech, Dysmorphic Facies, and variable Skeletal anomalies (IDNADFS, OMIM 618608). The condition clinically overlaps with chromosome 12q15 deletion syndrome, suggesting a major contribution of CNOT2 haploinsufficiency to ...

Serial blood pressure measurements, left ventricular remodelling and cardiovascular outcomes
We assessed systolic blood pressure (BP), diastolic BP and pulse pressure at several time points during adulthood in 2544 subjects participating in the Akershus Cardiac Examination 1950 Study. Serial blood pressure measurements are strongly associated with indexed LV mass, LV systolic function, and LV volumes, as well as risk of incident myocardial ...

A Computational Framework for Atrioventricular Valve Modeling using Open-Source Software [PDF]
Atrioventricular valve regurgitation is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with acquired and congenital cardiac valve disease. Image-derived computational modeling of atrioventricular valves has advanced substantially over the last decade and holds particular promise to inform valve repair in small and heterogeneous populations ...

Objective To determine the optimal anticoagulation intensity of warfarin in a South‐East Asian population with moderate‐to‐severe rheumatic mitral stenosis. Methods A multicentre, retrospective study examined patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis who had not undergone valve replacement or repair and required long‐term warfarin therapy at two ...

Pathophysiology of Mitral Valve Stenosis
Mitral valve stenosis (MS) can be congenital or acquired. Congenital MS is mainly the consequence of abnormalities of the subvalvular apparatus and occurs mainly in infants and children. [1] The congenital causes include parachute mitral valve deformity, congenital MS, supravalvular mitral ring and cor-triatriatum.

The right ventricle under pressure: Anatomy and imaging in sickness and health
The RV is essential to the homeostasis of normal physiology and disturbances in RV structure and function has a substantial effect on patient outcomes. This review sets out to describe the developmental and anatomical complexities of the right ventricle while exploring the modern techniques employed to image and understand its function from a clinical ...
