Tricuspid valve dysplasia in dogs [PDF]
A general overview of tricuspid valve dysplasia in dogs is presented in this review. This congenital disease has been described in numerous large dog breeds but especially the Labrador retriever is predisposed.

ABSTRACT Background Survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) often exhibit early deficits in muscle and movement competence, which can compromise long‐term health. Integrative neuromuscular training (INT), a multifaceted approach combining fundamental movement activities with strength exercises, may help address these deficits during ...

Sex-based considerations for implementation of ventricular assist device therapy
Women with advanced heart failure receive advanced surgical therapies such as durable left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation or heart transplantation at a rate much lower compared to males. Reasons for this discrepancy remain largely unknown.

Single-cell analysis of cardiogenesis reveals basis for organ-level developmental defects. [PDF]
Organogenesis involves integration of diverse cell types; dysregulation of cell-type-specific gene networks results in birth defects, which affect 5% of live births.

Three-dimensional echocardiography and 2D-3D speckle tracking imaging in chronic pulmonary hypertension. diagnostic accuracy in detecting hemodynamic signs of RV failure [PDF]
Background and objective. Our aim was to compare three-dimensional (3D) and 2D and 3D speckle tracking (2D-STE, 3D-STE) echocardiographic parameters with conventional right ventricular (RV) indexes in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Right Heart Dysfunction in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction:the Impact of Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and atrial fibrillation (AF) frequently coexist in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). The mechanisms underlying the association between AF and RV dysfunction are incompletely understood.
