Unlabelled: Fish trade and aquaculture activities are considered the major causes of fish and shellfish disease spread and transfer. An outbreak of infectious nature in captive stock of Java rabbitfish () in brackish water tanks was investigated. Microscopic examination revealed different stages of the parasitic dinoflagellate m in the gill filaments of moribund fish.

- This study investigates the relationship between left atrial (LA) remodeling and exercise capacity in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients, aiming to establish LA function as a prognostic marker.
- Out of 171 patients analyzed, significant differences in left atrial volume and function were found between those with low exercise capacity (pVO < 14 mL/kg/min) and those with better capacity.
- LA reservoir strain was identified as a strong predictor of exercise impairment, with a cut-off value of <23% indicating a high risk of reduced exercise capacity in CHF patients.
Aims: Exercise intolerance is the leading manifestation of heart failure with preserved or mid-range ejection fraction (HFpEF or HFmrEF), and left atrial (LA) function might contribute to modulating left ventricular filling and pulmonary venous pressures. We aim to assess the association between LA function and maximal exercise capacity in patients with HFpEF or HFmrEF.
Methods And Results: Sixty-five patients, prospectively enrolled in the German HFpEF Registry, were analysed.
