Females exhibit greater cardiac volume reductions with expiratory muscle loading during submaximal exercise compared to males

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Intrathoracic pressure (ITP) manipulation during submaximal exercise reveals load‐ and sex‐specific cardiac volume responses. Inspiratory loading increased oesophageal pressure swings and the work of breathing (Wb) but did not alter stroke volume (SV) or ventricular volumes in males or females.

A Meta‐Analysis and Simplified Nomenclature for Diagonal Coronary Artery and Ramus Intermedius Across Adult and Pediatric Hearts

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 305-324, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Anatomical descriptions of left‐sided oblique coronary branches remain inconsistent, hindering imaging interpretation and surgical planning. To quantify the prevalence, branching patterns and morphometry of the ramus intermedius (RI) and diagonal branches, and propose a unified nomenclature.

Enhanced Endoscope is Associated With Success Rates in B2‐ Endoscopic Ultrasound‐Guided Hepaticogastrostomy

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)‐guided hepaticogastrostomy (HGS) in intrahepatic bile duct segment 3 (B3) is widely used for biliary drainage. Post‐puncture procedures are easy to perform in intrahepatic bile duct segment 2 (B2), but using a conventional oblique‐viewing (OV) scope (GF‐UCT260) may result in transesophageal puncture.

Overtube Use Reduces the Incidence of Aspiration Pneumonia Following Gastric Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection: A Large, Single‐Center Japanese Experience

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Aspiration pneumonia (AP), a major adverse event (AE) associated with gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), particularly in older adults, has limited effective preventive strategies. Additionally, the efficacy of using overtube (OT) during gastric ESD for reducing AP incidence is not completely understood ...

Time to Sedation and Analgesia After Rapid Sequence Intubation in the Emergency Department

Emergency Medicine Australasia, Volume 38, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Rapid sequence intubation (RSI) is a common procedure within the Emergency Department. “Sedation gap”—the time between induction and post intubation sedation—has been associated with adverse outcomes. The aim of this study was to measure the median time to sedation or analgesia post intubation in adult patients within an Australian ...

Out With the Old, in With the New: Age‐Related D‐Dimer Thresholds

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, Volume 48, Issue 2, Page 402-409, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background A fixed D‐dimer cut‐off threshold of 0.500 μg/mL is used in Blackrock Health Hermitage Clinic (BHHC) and most Haematology laboratories across Ireland, however, international guidelines have evolved over the past decade, and a growing body of evidence supports the use of age‐adjusted D‐dimer thresholds.

Non‐RASopathy Genetic Syndromes Identified as the Molecular Cause of Disease in Patients Previously Diagnosed With Noonan Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 3, Page 661-672, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Noonan Syndrome (NS) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous condition characterized by typical facial dysmorphisms, short stature, congenital heart defects, and developmental delays. While variants in genes such as PTPN11, SOS1, and RAF1 account for most genetically confirmed cases, diagnosis is challenging due to phenotypic overlap ...

Recurrent Constellations of Embryonic Malformations (RCEM): Teratogenicity Linked to Transient Hypoxia and Hormone Pregnancy Tests Agrees With RCEM and Suggest a Reactive Oxygen Species Pathogenesis

Birth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background No consistent genetic etiology has been found for a group of six different conditions in humans with multiple malformations called “recurrent constellations of embryonic malformations” (RCEM). Recent studies indicate hypoxia/reoxygenation and generation Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as an underlying mechanism for RCEM with the ...

Pulmonary valve leaflet extension with bovine pericardium: for treatment of pulmonary insufficiency.

Texas Heart Institute journal, 2011
Using a homograft in a pulmonic area is sometimes inadvisable due to the lack of optimal graft materials. We report a case of pulmonary valve insufficiency that we treated by leaflet extension using the commercially available E-Leafcon template and bovine pericardium.
