Longitudinal Echocardiographic Surveillance of Aortic Dilation in a Phenotype‐Enriched Turner Syndrome Cohort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is associated with thoracic aortopathy and increased risk for aortic dissection, yet the natural history of aortic dilation is not well understood. We performed a retrospective longitudinal study of individuals with TS who participated in the TS Society of the United States Healthy Heart Project between 2003 and 2023 ...

Outcome of acute type A aortic dissection: single-center experience from 1998 to 2007 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Introduction. Acute aortic dissection (AAD) is a serious disease of the aorta with high mortality and morbidity, which requires emergency surgical treatment in order to close the site of the dissection and direct blood flow into the true lumen.

Aortic diameter >or = 5.5 cm is not a good predictor of type A aortic dissection: observations from the International Registry of Acute Aortic Dissection (IRAD).

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Studies of aortic aneurysm patients have shown that the risk of rupture increases with aortic size. However, few studies of acute aortic dissection patients and aortic size exist.

Descriptive, stratigraphic, and morpho‐functional study of the myocardium and myocardial bridges in domestic pig hearts

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart is the central organ of the cardiovascular system. The myocardium is composed of a three‐dimensional network of fibers arranged in clockwise and counterclockwise helices, which are essential for proper cardiac contraction. This study aimed to describe the stratigraphic and morpho‐functional pattern of the porcine myocardium to ...

Cardiopulmonary bypass time is an independent risk factor for acute kidney injury in emergent thoracic aortic surgery: a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2019
Background Thoracic aortic surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass are both associated with development of postoperative acute kidney injury. In this study, we undertook to investigate the relationship between cardiopulmonary bypass time and postoperative ...

Learning beyond the lab: A gamified approach to anatomy education in a museum‐based experience

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy education, traditionally rooted in descriptive instruction and cadaveric dissection, is undergoing a significant transformation through the integration of educational technologies and contemporary pedagogical strategies. Among these, active learning methodologies, such as gamified‐based learning, have emerged as approaches designed to ...
