- Cardiovascular diseases significantly impact children with chronic renal failure, making cardiac evaluations important before and after kidney transplants.
- A study analyzed echocardiography data from 55 pediatric patients, comparing their cardiac health before and after transplantation by looking at various measurements like left ventricular dimensions and function over a 6-month period.
- Results showed that kidney transplants led to important improvements in heart structure and function, highlighting the need for ongoing cardiac monitoring in these patients to ensure better health outcomes.
Objective: Catatonia is a syndrome that can be missed in clinical settings. Diagnosis of catatonia is important because the condition can be reversible and is associated with severe complications. This study aims to screen patients with catatonia admitted to a university hospital's psychiatry and neurology services, examine their characteristics, and compare the coverage of different catatonia scales.

Also to explore the relationship between changes in BDNF levels and the impact of perioperative factors including intraoperative body temperature, aortic cross-clamp time, perfusion time, operation time, inotropic score, vasoactive inotropic score and lactate levels.
Methods: Forty-four patients with CHD and 36 healthy neonates were included in the study.
Background: Cardiovascular system involvement is quite common and the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with Williams syndrome (WS), most of whom need surgery. The present study aimed to provide a detailed evaluation of the features of surgical procedures and outcomes of patients with WS given as single-center experience, and additionally to make a detailed review from Türkiye.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-five children with WS diagnosed between the years 1992 and 2021 were evaluated retrospectively including cardiovascular data, surgical treatment features, and outcomes.
