Ischaemic mitral regurgitation: pathophysiology, outcomes and the conundrum of treatment. [PDF]
peer reviewedIschaemic mitral regurgitation is a frequent complication of left ventricular global or regional pathological remodelling due to chronic coronary artery disease. It is not a valve disease but represents the valvular consequences of increased

Revisiting tricuspid regurgitation: Historical insights and emerging research perspectives
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR), once seen as benign, is now recognized as a serious and increasingly prevalent condition linked to aging and better imaging. Its association with greater morbidity and mortality has shifted clinical perspectives towards early diagnosis and intervention.

Aim The aim of this study is to share our experience of the combined double‐orifice and single‐patch technique for the correction of partial atrioventricular septal defect (pAVSD) and its associated tricuspid valve dysplasia (TVD). Methods Between January 2014 and May 2024, 99 patients (age ≥ 18 years) who underwent repair of pAVSD and its associated ...

Background Linezolid is an oxazolidinone antibiotic used in the treatment of Gram‐positive bacterial infections. However, its prolonged use is often limited by adverse effects, including thrombocytopenia. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has been proposed to individualize linezolid dosing to mitigate such adverse effects. This study presents a case of

Infective endocarditis (IE) imposes a challenge in clinical practice, often demanding rapid and precise identification of the causative agent to guide tailored therapeutic interventions. However, a subset of cases presents an elusive diagnostic dilemma with culture‐negative results, thereby complicating the management strategy.
