Objective: This study investigates the prevalence and underlying factors of fatigue in individuals with Marfan syndrome (MFS) and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndromes (hEDS), highlighting the necessity for focused research on this symptom within these patient populations.
Design: Cross-sectional, multicentre study.
Setting: Data were collected from participants diagnosed with MFS or hEDS across multiple healthcare centres.
Patients with carotid stenosis can receive indication for either carotid endarterectomy (CEA) or carotid artery stenting (CAS), with both techniques having an impact on the autonomic function and baroreflex control.Seventy carotid stenosis patients randomly assigned to CEA or CAS were enrolled. After exclusion of some recordings, 33 CEA (age 67.

Despite being a widely discussed topic, UI remains an underrecognized condition: affected individuals often refrain from reporting it due to its status as a socially sensitive topic and a source of embarrassment. UI exhibits a markedly higher prevalence in the female population compared to males and significantly diminishes the quality of life for those affected.

- Fabry Disease cardiomyopathy (FDc) and sarcomeric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) show similar hypertrophic heart features, particularly anomalies of the mitral valve apparatus (AMVA), which were assessed in this study for better diagnosis and understanding of disease progression.
- The study involved 80 Fabry patients and 40 HCM patients, utilizing cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging to measure various AMVA and compare groups with similar levels of left ventricular hypertrophy.
- Results indicated that Fabry patients exhibited greater hypertrophy of papillary muscles compared to HCM patients, alongside significant anomalies like apical displacement, supporting the idea that AMVA may serve as early indicators in Fabry disease. *
