Transcatheter Closure of Residual Atrial Septal Defects After Surgical Closure
The repair of an ostium secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs) by an open heart operation is a safe procedure associated with low mortality and morbidity. Transcatheter closure of ASDs is a less invasive method of repairing ASDs and may also be the procedure of first choice in residual postsurgical ASD.

Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Abstract Large clinical data underscore that heart failure is independently associated to an increased risk of negative cognitive outcome and dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that cerebral hypoperfusion, stemming from reduced cardiac output and vascular pathology, may contribute to the largely overlapping vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease ...
