Implementation and Performance of First‐Trimester Referral Ultrasound Scan Following the Introduction of National Guidelines

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 1335-1348, July/August 2026.
The expert assessment of fetal anatomy before 14 weeks is feasible when adopting a standardized protocol and allows an early diagnosis in most cases at risk for fetal anomaly following first trimester screening ultrasound. ABSTRACT Background To report the implementation across Fetal Medicine units and the agreement between first and second trimester ...

Heart Transplant for Noncompaction Cardiomyopathy in NONO‐Related Syndromic Intellectual Disability

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Silent NONO variant c.348G>A caused exon 4 skipping, frameshift, and nonsense‐mediated decay in a boy with neurodevelopmental delay and severe left ventricular noncompaction requiring heart transplantation in early childhood. Stable graft function at 14 years highlights favorable long‐term cardiac outcome; literature review confirms a recognizable ...

The Level and Clinical Significance of Red Blood Cell Distribution Width in Patients With Congenital Heart Disease Associated With Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Previous studies have shown that red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is an independent risk factor for the prognosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and is also associated with cardiovascular events in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD).

Refractory Chylothorax in Primary Mediastinal Large B‐Cell Lymphoma: A Case of Superior Vena Cava Obstruction Thrombosis‐Induced Lymphatic Leak Salvaged by Mechanical Thrombectomy

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
A patient with mediastinal lymphoma developed refractory chylothorax due to SVC thrombosis. Mechanical thrombectomy restored venous patency and resolved the chylothorax, avoiding thrombolysis and upfront stenting. ABSTRACT Chylothorax is an uncommon presentation of mediastinal lymphoma, typically attributed to direct tumour invasion.

How to facilitate ultrasound examination of the fetal heart: the 5‐4‐3‐2‐1 method

open access: yesUltrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, Page 124-129, July 2026.
ABSTRACT We propose a new standardized, systematic method of fetal cardiac screening, the step‐by‐step ‘5‐4‐3‐2‐1’ method. This method is based on understanding the cardiac structures through a process of navigating between the different recommended views during an abdominothoracic sweep, following a user‐friendly checklist to identify the main ...

Central Venous Pressure Referencing in the Lateral Position: Comparison With Direct Right Atrial Pressure in Mechanically Ventilated ICU Patients

open access: yesActa Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Right atrial pressure (RAP) is a key determinant of venous return and reflects right‐sided filling pressures in critically ill patients. Central venous pressure (CVP) is commonly used as a surrogate, but its accuracy depends on appropriate transducer levelling. While reference points have been evaluated in supine positions, evidence

Inferior Vena Cava Ultrasound for Decongestion Assessment in Acute Heart Failure: Systematic Review

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 7, July 2026.
This systematic review of 629 patients suggests that using IVC ultrasound to guide decongestion in acute heart failure significantly improves clinical outcomes. This approach leads to reduced NT‐proBNP levels, hospitalizations, mortality, and adverse events, highlighting its effectiveness as a potential tool for optimizing AHF treatment and monitoring .

Bioelectrical Impedance in Pediatric Dialysis: Clinical Applications, Limitations, and Opportunities

open access: yesHemodialysis International, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 486-498, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Optimizing fluid and nutritional management is a cornerstone of care for children with end‐stage kidney disease on dialysis. Inaccurate assessment of hydration status contributes to hypertension, fluid overload, and increased cardiovascular risk, while masking important changes in muscle and fat compartments that affect growth and ...
