Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

A Large Retrospective Study to Evaluate Utility of Zephyr Covered Stent in Transcatheter Closure of Sinus Venosus Defects

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter closure (TCC) of sinus venosus defects (SVD) using balloon‐expandable covered stents is an emerging alternative to surgery. ZephyrCS (Sahajanand Laser Technologies, Gandhinagar, India) is available in long lengths to suit SVD closure.

Secretopathies emerge as a new class of neurocristopathies

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population of cells that give rise to a wide range of structures, including craniofacial cartilage and bone, peripheral neurons and glia, as well as components of the cardiac outflow tract, among others.

Closure of insufficient, native right ventricular outflow tract with AMPLATZER™ muscular ventricular septal defect occluder in a patient with tetralogy of Fallot post-Melody® valve

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2019
AMPLATZER™ muscular ventricular septal defect occluder is used commonly for off-label purposes. We describe an unusual case of a patient with tetralogy of Fallot who underwent repair with a right ventricle to pulmonary artery homograft due to abnormal ...

Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 799-808, April 2025.
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

A 6-year experience of the Ross procedure in children with congenital aortic valve disease

Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2020
Background: The choice of an optimal method for correction of aortic valve stenosis or insufficiency remains the matter of debate. Some clinicians prefer transluminal balloon angioplasty, some would perform an open type commissurotomy, or aortic valve ...

Short-term effect of monocuspid valves on pulmonary insufficiency and clinical outcome after surgical repair of tetralogy of fallot [PDF]

, 1996
In the surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot, monocuspid valves are sometimes inserted within a transannular patch to prevent pulmonary insufficiency. To determine whether this monocuspid valve prevents short-term postoperative pulmonary insufficiency ...

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 ...

Comprehensive exploration of unexplained dyspnoea in subjects with normal ejection fraction and low natriuretic peptides

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 879-887, April 2025.
Abstract Background Unexplained exertional dyspnoea without significant elevation of natriuretic peptides is common. One of the causes might be early heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Aims This study aimed to characterize patients with exertional dyspnoea and normal/near‐to‐normal N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT ...
