Circulating Musclin is associated with skeletal muscle function and subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients with cancer

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Musclin (osteocrin) is a skeletal muscle‐derived peptide that has been implicated in cardioprotective signalling pathways. Its relevance in cancer patients, who frequently experience muscle wasting and cardiotoxicity, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether circulating Musclin levels reflect functional capacity and

Isolated complete right bundle branch block – findings in the interventricular septum with the speckle-tracking echocardiography: a case report

Heart Vessels and Transplantation
Objective: Isolated complete right bundle branch block (CRBBB) is a known ECG finding in apparently healthy adults. However, the etiology of CRBBB is studied poorly and its prognosis still debatable.

First Pediatric Application of Bachmann's Bundle Pacing and Left Bundle Branch Area Pacing for Bi‐Physiologic Conduction System Pacing

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Atrial pacing at right atrial appendage causes nonphysiologic delays. Bachmann's bundle (BB) pacing preserves synchrony but lacks pediatric data. Case Summary We report the first pediatric combined BB and left bundle branch area pacing in a 9‐year‐old boy (23.5 kg).

Therapeutic Effect of Targeting Branched-Chain Amino Acid Catabolic Flux in Pressure-Overload Induced Heart Failure. [PDF]

, 2019
Background Branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolic defect is an emerging metabolic hallmark in failing hearts in human and animal models. The therapeutic impact of targeting BCAA catabolic flux under pathological conditions remains understudied ...

Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Hypertensive Pregnancy Disorders: A Systematic Review

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2020
Importance Hypertensive pregnancy disorders (HPDs) are associated with an increased risk of long-term cardiovascular disease. Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) might be useful in the early detection of preclinical cardiac changes in women with HPDs.

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

Advanced Echocardiography Assessment in the Management of Alcapa Syndrome: Case Report

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare and potentially life-threatening condition affecting infants that requires immediate corrective surgery to restore blood flow to the myocardium.
