Background: Right ventricular restrictive physiology (RVRP) is a common occurrence in repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). The relationship of RVRP with biventricular blood flow components and kinetic energy (KE) from 4-dimensional (4D) flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is unclear.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of 4D flow CMR parameters with RVRP in rTOF patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how childhood trauma affects brain connectivity in patients experiencing their first episode of psychosis compared to healthy controls.
  • Higher scores of sexual abuse and emotional neglect from childhood trauma were linked to increased functional connectivity between specific brain regions (like the amygdala and prefrontal cortex) in these patients.
  • The findings suggest that different types of childhood trauma have distinct long-term effects on brain function, highlighting the complex relationship between trauma and psychosis.

Understanding the origin of enhanced catalytic activity is critical to heterogeneous catalyst design. This is especially important for non-noble metal-based catalysts, notably metal oxides, which have recently emerged as viable alternatives for numerous thermal catalytic processes. For thermal catalytic reduction/hydrogenation using metal oxide nanoparticles, enhanced catalytic performance is typically attributed to increased surface area and oxygen vacancies.

Background: Emergency medical services attend out-of-hospital cardiac arrests all across Australia. Resuscitation by emergency medical services is attempted in nearly half of all cases. However, resuscitation skills can degrade over time without adequate exposure, which negatively impacts patient survival.
