Genotype‐guided cardiac device intervention in LMNA‐related cardiac conduction disorder: The need for timely genetic testing

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Sudden cardiac death is a catastrophic event, making its prevention important. However, patient selection for primary prevention remains controversial. We report two cases of cardiac conduction disorder initially treated with permanent pacemaker implantation.

ILAE neuroimaging task force highlight: MRI detection of early life epilepsy caused by focal cortical dysplasia

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract The ILAE Neuroimaging Task Force aims to publish educational case reports that highlight basic aspects of neuroimaging in epilepsy consistent with the ILAE's educational mission. Here, we describe a case series of three neonates with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD)‐related drug‐resistant epilepsy who underwent surgical intervention. The purpose

What determines the timing of epilepsy surgery in children with cortical malformations and low‐grade epilepsy‐associated tumors?

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Timely referral and efficient presurgical evaluation are important to optimize postoperative seizure and developmental outcomes in epilepsy surgery patients. We aimed to identify determinants of time intervals from epilepsy diagnosis to referral to specialized centers and epilepsy surgery in children with malformations of cortical ...

The Failure Rate of Internal Fixation Increases With Sagittal Displacement of the Femoral Head: A Retrospective Study

Health Care Science, EarlyView.
This study found that the degree of femoral head sagittal displacement is linked to the risk of internal fixation failure in femoral neck fracture. Measurements of the sagittal tilt angle of the femoral head (STAFH) using CT‐3D imaging showed high reliability (ICC = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.96–0.98). Patients with excessive sagittal displacement (anterior tilt ≥

Treatment of esophageal achalasia in children: Today and tomorrow [PDF]

, 2015
Esophageal achalasia (EA) is a rare esophageal motility disorder in children. Laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM) represents the treatment of choice in young patients. Peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is becoming an alternative to LHM.

Multidimensional Prognostic Index as a Predictor of Mortality in Head and Neck Cancer Patients: A Cohort Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck cancer (HNC) significantly impacts older adults, with mortality influenced by multiple factors. The Multidimensional Prognostic Index (MPI), derived from comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), may improve risk stratification and clinical decision making. Methods An observational cohort study was conducted at Erasmus
