ABSTRACT The patent foramen ovale (PFO), present in 25% of the population, can cause paradoxical embolism and stroke. Transcatheter PFO closure is the gold standard for recurrent embolism with significant inter‐atrial shunting, with recent trials confirming its superiority in reducing ischemic stroke recurrence over medical therapy.

ABSTRACT Objective Possible pleiotropic effects of apolipoprotein E4 (APOE E4) in individuals with congenital brain malformations are relatively unknown. Our goal was to determine if neurodegeneration‐linked brain region volumes differ significantly between E4 carriers and noncarriers in young adults with spina bifida (SB). Methods Eleven individuals (

Abstract Background Previous experiments inducing leakage of embryonic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suggest the necessity of intraventricular CSF pressure (PCSF) for brain morphogenesis. Nevertheless, how embryonic PCSF occurs is unclear, especially in utero. Results Using a Landis water manometer, we measured PCSF in fetal mice isolated from the amniotic

Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...
