Missile embolism from pulmonary vein to left ventricle: report of a case.

Missile embolization is rare in penetrating trauma, occurring in 0.3% of cases. Bullet embolism into the left ventricle is less frequent, with few instances described in the literature.

Comparison of Machine Learning Algorithms Using Manual/Automated Features on 12-Lead Signal Electrocardiogram Classification: A Large Cohort Study on Students Aged Between 6 to 18 Years Old.

Propose: An electrocardiogram (ECG) has been extensively used to detect rhythm disturbances. We sought to determine the accuracy of different machine learning in distinguishing abnormal ECGs from normal ones in children who were examined using a resting 12-Lead ECG machine, and we also compared the manual and automated measurement using the modular ECG Analysis System (MEANS) algorithm of ECG features.

Methods: Altogether, 10745 ECGs were recorded for students aged 6 to 18.

QTc interval measurement in patients with right bundle branch block: A practical method.

Background And Aim: Prolonging the QT interval in the right bundle branch block (RBBB) can create challenges for electrophysiologists in estimating repolarization time and eliminating the effect of depolarization changes on QT interval. In this study, we aimed to develop a practice formula to eliminate the effect of depolarization changes on QT interval in patients with RBBB.

Methods: This prospective study evaluated accidentally induced RBBB in patients undergoing electrophysiological study.

Electrocardiographic indices and pregnancy: A focus on changes between first and third trimesters.

Introduction And Objectives: Pregnancy can affect the cardiac conduction system, causing changes to the electrocardiographic indices that may mimic pathologic ones. The aim of this study was to discover these changes in normal pregnant women.

Methods: We included 103 healthy pregnant women, aged between 18-35 years.

Percutaneous Balloon Pulmonary Valvuloplasty of Critical Pulmonary Stenosis and severe pulmonary stenosis in Neonates and Early Infancy: A Challenge in the Cyanotic.

Pulmonary stenosis with an intact ventricular septum (PS-IVS) is one of the common causes of cyanotic heart disease in neonates with diverse morphologies as well as management and treatment protocols. The aim of this study was to evaluate short and midterm results of balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty (BPV) for this disorder. Between 2012 and 2016, Totally 45 neonates and infants under 6 months old were evaluated.

The Role of Thyroid Diseases and their Medications in Cardiovascular Disorders: A Review of the Literature.

The association between thyroid disease and cardiovascular manifestations is significant and undeniable. Previous studies have explained several aspects of the effects of thyroid hormone on the heart and cardiovascular system. Accordingly, both hyper and hypothyroidism can cause important alterations in cardiac rhythm, output and contractility as well as vascular resistance and blood pressure.

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with Infective Endocarditis Presented with Unusual Intracardiac Mass.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a systemic disease that is presented with different symptoms and signs. Cardiac manifestation is rare in ALL, but it is very important and needs appropriate management. It usually presents as leukemic myocardial infiltration and in the presence of cardiac mass comprehensive evaluation for other etiologies is mandatory.
