: Retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator () gene mutations are a common cause of X-linked retinitis pigmentosa and X-linked cone-rod dystrophy. There have been no previous reports of association with crystalline retinopathy or pseudo-crystalline retinopathy.: We describe the history, clinical findings, retinal imaging, and electrodiagnostic studies of a patient with a tapetal-like reflex (TLR) and pseudo-crystalline retinopathy secondary to mutation.

The impact of partial hemodynamic support with a microaxial percutaneous left ventricular assist device (pLVAD) on renal function after high-risk PCI remains unknown.
Objective: We tested the hypothesis that partial hemodynamic support with the Impella 2.
