Department of Neonatology, Children's Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China.
This study investigated the correlation between quantitative echocardiographic characteristics within 3 days of birth and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and its severity in preterm infants. A retrospective study was conducted on 168 preterm infants with a gestational age of < 34 weeks. Patients were categorized into NEC and non-NEC groups.

A significant proportion of elderly patients referred to transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) do not experience an improvement of their symptoms. New tools are needed to better select candidates and avoid futile procedures. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of a new echocardiographic classification which assesses the consequences of chronic elevation of afterload on mortality and hospitalizations for heart failure (HF) in patients with severe AS undergoing TAVR.

Background: Patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) typically present with heterogeneity in the extent of cardiac dysfunction and extra-cardiac comorbidities, which play a decisive role for survival after transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI).
Objectives: This aim of this study was to create a survival tree-based model to determine the cardiac and extra-cardiac features associated with 2-year survival after TTVI.
Methods: The study included 918 patients (derivation set, n = 631; validation set, n = 287) undergoing TTVI for severe TR.
The Role of Fetal Echocardiography in Predicting Postnatal Pulmonary Venous Obstruction in Neonates with TAPVR: A Single Center Experience.

Division of Pediatric Cardiology, UT Southwestern, Children's Medical Center, Dallas, TX, USA.
Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) is a high risk and rare cardiac malformation with a low prenatal detection rate and predicting obstruction in these cases is difficult. We sought to investigate fetal echocardiographic parameters associated with postnatal pulmonary venous obstruction (PPVO). We performed a retrospective review of 26 patients with TAPVR who had a fetal echocardiogram from 2010 to 2021.

Cardiac tamponade is widely known to be associated with life-threatening hypotension and rarely with hypertension. We present the case of a 53-year-old woman with hypertension and echocardiographic features of tamponade who had a cardiac arrest on intubation. The paradoxical hypertension is thought to be due to tachycardia and increased peripheral vascular resistance resulting from the compensatory sympathetic surge following impaired cardiac filling caused by the effusion.
