Prognostic value of left atrial strain in acute and chronic heart failure: A meta‐analysis
The prognostic evaluation of heart failure (HF) beyond ejection fraction remains challenging. Moreover, reliable prognosticators in chronic HF sometimes lose their value in acute settings or vice versa. Speckle tracking echocardiography offers new sensitive parameters for prognostic stratification in heart failure with reduced and preserved ejection ...

Time Course of Ventricular Remodeling after Atrial Septal Defect Closure in Adult Patients
Background: Atrial septal defect (ASD) is the most common congenital heart disease. However, the details of cardiac chamber remodeling after surgery are not well known, although this is an important issue that should be analyzed to understand long-term

Surgical correction of total anomalous pulmonary venous return in an adult patient
Background Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) is rare congenital heart disease. Most TAPVRs require surgical corrections in the neonatal period and survival to adulthood without surgical correction is extremely rare.

Percutaneous mechanical circulatory support for acute right heart failure: A practical approach
This is an overview of percutaneous mechanical circulatory support options for acute right heart failure, illustrating key clinical scenarios, device types, and principles of tailored device selection based on haemodynamics and underlying pathology. Abstract Acute right heart failure (RHF) represents a critical entity with significant morbidity and ...

The Hemodynamic Basis of Exercise Intolerance in Tricuspid Regurgitation
Background—Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) frequently present with exertional fatigue and dyspnea, but the hemodynamic basis for exercise limitation in people with TR remains unclear. Methods and Results—Twelve subjects with normal left

Background: The Fontan circulation is associated with low skeletal muscle mass, which affects the accuracy of creatinine-based glomerular filtration rate estimates (eGFR/GFR). Cystatin C, another filtration marker, is less impacted by muscle mass.

Abstract Background Interventional valve implantation into the inferior vena cava (CAVI) lowers venous congestion in patients with tricuspid regurgitation (TR). We evaluated the impact of a reduction of abdominal venous congestion following CAVI on circulating immune cells and inflammatory mediators.
