Although premature ventricular beats (PVBs) in young people and athletes are usually benign, they may rarely mark underlying heart disease and risk of sudden cardiac death during sport. This review ...

Objective Pharmacological options for patients with a failing systemic right ventricle (RV) in the context of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) after atrial switch or congenitally corrected ...

Dangerous ideas are born of necessary creativity in challenging circumstances. In this case, the challenging circumstance, and the real reason for acute interest in unusual survival with untreated ...

Radiologists worldwide use mammography as a reliable tool for breast cancer screening. However, mammography assessment is challenging even for well-trained radiologists, leading to a pressing need for ...

Alzheimers disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease most prevalent in the elderly. Distinguishing disease-related memory decline from normal age-related memory decline has been ...

The left ventricle responds by developing hypertrophy to overcome the stenosis. The increased wall thickness helps normalize wall stress and maintain cardiac output in the normal range.

Sclerostin is most recognized for its role in controlling bone formation but is also expressed in the heart, aorta, coronary, and peripheral arteries. This review summarizes research on sclerostin’s ...

Figure 1 In A, axial CT scan of the chest with lung window setting at the level of the upper lobes shows nodular ground-glass opacities in a predominantly centrilobular distribution. In B, mediastinal ...

In this pilot study, we demonstrate that calcification in brain microvasculature can be quantified precisely using high-resolution micro-computed tomography (microCT) ex vivo and we utilize this ...
