Background: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disorder that can lead to right ventricular failure and severe consequences. Despite extensive efforts, limited progress has been made in preventing the progression of PAH. Mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in the development of PAH, but the key mitochondrial functional alterations in the pathogenesis have yet to be elucidated.

Purpose: The impact of ventriculomegaly (VM) on cortical development and brain functionality has been extensively explored in existing literature. VM has been associated with higher risks of attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorders, as well as cognitive, language, and behavior deficits. Some studies have also shown a relationship between VM and cortical overgrowth, along with reduced cortical folding, both in fetuses and neonates.

Predicting right ventricular failure after left ventricular assist device implant: A novel approach.

ESC Heart Fail

January 2025

Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Perelman School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.

Aims: Right ventricular (RV) failure (RVF) after left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implant is an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Modern, data-driven approaches for defining and predicting RVF have been under-utilized.

Methods: Two hundred thirty-two patients were identified with a mean age of 55 years; 40 (17%) were women, 132 were (59%) Caucasian and 74 (32%) were Black.

Anderson-Fabry disease (AFD) is a X-linked lysosomal storage disorder that can result in cardiac dysfunction including left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and conduction abnormalities (Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine vol. 10) [1]. The manifestations of AFD in women may be isolated to one organ and occur late in life due to the random inactivation of the X chromosome.

Pooled microarray expression analysis of failing left ventricles reveals extensive cellular-level dysregulation independent of age and sex.

J Mol Cell Cardiol Plus

March 2024

National Coalition of Independent Scholars, 125 Putney Road, Battleboro, VT 05301, United States.

Existing cardiovascular studies tend to suffer from small sample sizes and unaddressed confounders. Re-profiling of 9 microarray datasets revealed significant global gene expression differences between 358 failing and 191 non-failing left ventricles independent of age and sex ( = 5.1e-10).
