The Fate of the Outflow Tract Septal Complex in Relation to the Classification of Ventricular Septal Defects

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2019
It is now established that the entity often described as an “aortopulmonary septal complex„ is better considered as an “outflow tract septal complex„.

Soluble ST2 levels and left ventricular structure and function in patients with metabolic syndrome [PDF]

, 2016
Background: A biomarker that is of great interest in relation to adverse cardiovascular events is soluble ST2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin family.

Irgm1 Improves Postinfarction Cardiac Repair by Promoting Neutrophil Clearance and Efferocytosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The Irgm1‐PDIA3 axis enhances post‐infarction cardiac repair by accelerating neutrophil clearance and facilitating efferocytosis. Irgm1 holds potential as a prognostic biomarker in MI, and LOC14 may represent a therapeutic option to improve cardiac repair, especially in cases of Irgm1 deficiency.

Deteriorated biomechanical properties of human hypertrophied septum in response to cardiomyocyte enlargement, overexpressed collagen, and disarrayed microstructures

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is often caused by genetic mutations, resulting in abnormal thickening of ventricular muscle, particularly the septum, and causing left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction and inferior cardiac performance.

Atrial septal defect--echocardiographic assessment before and after surgical repair.

Acta Médica Portuguesa, 1979
Twenty-two patients with atrial septal defect (ostium secundum type and sinus venosus) were studied by echocardiography before and after surgery. The sizes of the various heart chambers - right and left ventricles, left atrium and aortic root - and the ...

Ventricular interdependence in critically ill patients: from physiology to bedside

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
The review focuses on the mechanism of ventricular interdependence, a frequently encountered phenomena, especially in critically ill patients. It is explained by the anatomy of the heart, with two ventricles sharing a common wall, the septum, and nested ...

Quantification of left ventricular longitudinal strain, strain rate, velocity and displacement in healthy horses by 2-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]

, 2011
Background: The quantification of equine left ventricular (LV) function is generally limited to short-axis M-mode measurements. However, LV deformation is 3-dimensional (3D) and consists of longitudinal shortening, circumferential shortening, and radial ...

A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

Characterization of an Inherited Neurologic Syndrome in Toyger Cats with Forebrain Commissural Malformations, Ventriculomegaly and Interhemispheric Cysts. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundIn children, frequent congenital malformations with concomitant agenesis of the corpus callosum are diagnosed by neuroimaging in association with other cerebral malformations, including interhemispheric cysts and ventriculomegaly.

Significance of myocardial tenascin-C expression in left ventricular remodelling and long-term outcome in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2015
Aim Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has a variety of causes, and no useful approach to predict left ventricular (LV) remodelling and long-term outcome has yet been established.
