Energy loss and adults with congenital heart disease: a novel marker of cardiac workload beyond right ventricular size.
Cardiovasc Diagn Ther
December 2024
Cardiovascular Center, St. Luke's International Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction after biventricular repair is critical in most adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD). Conventional 2D magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurement is considered as a 'gold standard' for RV evaluation; however, addition information on ACHD after biventricular repair is sometimes required. The reasons why adjunctive information is required is as follows: (I) to evaluate the severity of cardiac burden in symptomatic patients with normal RV size and ejection fraction (EF), (II) to determine the optimal timing of invasive treatments in asymptomatic ones, and (III) to detect proactively a potential cardiac burden leading to ventricular deterioration, from a fluid dynamics perspective.

Background: Penetrating cardiac trauma is an entity with high pre and intrahospital mortality due to complications such as cardiac tamponade and massive hemothorax. A ventricular septal defect (VSD) occurs in 1-5% of cases and can present early or late. The management strategy for VSD resulting from penetrating cardiac trauma is uncertain.

January 2025
Department of Coronary Artery Disease and Cardiac Rehabilitation, National Institute of Cardiology, Warsaw, Poland.
Background: Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) risk stratification in patients with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) may be complicated by other potential causes of arrhythmia.
Objectives: We aimed to characterize SCA survivors with isolated (iMVP) and non-isolated MVP (non-iMVP) and to assess their long-term follow-up.
Methods: This ambispective study included 75 patients with MVP who experienced SCA and were treated in our center between 2009-2024.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
National Center for Neurological Disorders, Shanghai, Shanghai, China.
Background: The heart-brain connection has been proposed to correlate cardiac disorders with brain health. However, the associations between subclinical alterations in cardiac structure or function and Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathologies haven't been fully elucidated. This study aimed to delineate the interrelationships between the subclinical alterations in the left heart, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) AD biomarkers, and cognition.

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Division of Geriatrics, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Sao Paulo Medical School, São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil.
Background: Hypertension is a midlife modifiable risk factor for dementia. Uncontrolled hypertension is related to brain damage that could result in cognitive impairment, and one way of evaluating uncontrolled hypertension through life is assessing left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Previous imaging studies have shown a relationship between LVH and cognitive impairment.
