Diagnosis and Management of Prenatal Hereditary Pyropoikilocytosis
ABSTRACT Hereditary pyropoikilocytosis (HPP) is a severe hemolytic anemia caused by variants in SPTA1, SPTB, and EPB41. These weaken horizontal interactions in the erythrocyte cytoskeleton, causing membrane fragmentation and splenic sequestration. It will readily cause fetal anemia and often hydrops fetalis. Prenatal diagnosis requires first ruling out

Surgical Treatment Strategy of Functional Tricuspid Regurgitation
Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is a common type of tricuspid regurgitation (TR), particularly in cases of left heart valve disease. Historically, cardiac surgeons have not placed much emphasis on FTR and instead focused primarily on managing ...

Neuroimaging Findings and Risk Factors for Brain Injury in Foetuses Treated for Anaemia
ABSTRACT Objective Characterize neuroimaging findings in foetuses with anaemia and identify associated risk factors. Methods Retrospective cohort study of pregnancies with foetal anaemia (defined as haemoglobin > 2 standard deviations below the gestational age mean) confirmed by foetal blood sampling (FBS) and treated with intrauterine transfusion (IUT)

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

Tissue Doppler imaging following paediatric cardiac surgery : early patterns of change and relationship to outcome [PDF]
In this study, tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) was used to assess changes in ventricular function following repair of congenital heart defects. The relationship between TDI indices, myocardial injury and clinical outcome was explored.

A pKa‐engineered near‐infrared fluorescent probe (DCM‐2F‐B) enables sensitive imaging of oxidative stress in atherosclerotic plaques. Difluoro substitution lowers the phenolic hydroxyl pKa from 9.1 to 6.0, achieving near‐complete ionization at physiological pH.

ABSTRACT Sex chromosome aneuploidies represent a heterogeneous group of chromosomal conditions, in which phenotypic complexity generally increases with the number of supernumerary sex chromosomes. While Turner syndrome and sex chromosome trisomies are relatively well characterized, less is known about congenital malformations in sex chromosome ...
