Predicting the Propensity of Atrial Cardiopathy and Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation in Patients with Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS).
Arq Bras Cardiol
January 2025
Cardiovascular Medicine Department, Faculty of Medicine, Tanta University, Tanta - Egito.
Background: There is still a significant population of patients with embolic stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS) whose specific attributable cause of the stroke remains unknown.
Objectives: Our research aimed to assess clinical, electrocardiogram, laboratory, and echocardiographic parameters that may predict the propensity of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).
Methods: We enrolled seventy-five ESUS patients who were in sinus rhythm at the time of stroke diagnosis to undergo in-hospital 7-day Holter monitoring, testing for Pro-BNP, and a standard echocardiographic examination.
Assessment of Left Ventricular function and Aortic blood flow in children with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) attending two health institutions in Enugu Metropolis.

Department of Paediatrics, College of Medicine, University of Nigeria Ituku/Ozalla and University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital Ituku/Ozalla, Enugu, Enugu State, Nigeria.
Background: Children with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) usually present with right heart abnormalities, however much is not known if these children presents with left ventricular dysfunction.
Objectives: This article is aimed to ascertain the left ventricular function of children with TOF compared with those without any congenital heart disease. It also elicits the correlation if any, between left ventricular mass and descending aorta blood flow.
Predictive value of CT-based and AI-reconstructed 3D-TAPSE in patients undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve repair.

Clinic for General and Interventional Cardiology/Angiology, Herz- und Diabeteszentrum, NRW, Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Medizinische Fakultät OWL (Universität Bielefeld), Bad Oeynhausen, Germany.
Background: The tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) assessed by echocardiography has failed in predicting outcomes in patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) undergoing transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention (TTVI). Considering the complex shape of the tricuspid annulus and right ventricle, as well as the difficult echocardiographic image acquisition of the right heart, cardiac computed tomography (CT) might be superior for the analysis of the annular excursion. Thus, this study aimed to analyze whether CT-captured TAPSE provides additional value in predicting outcomes after TTVI.

Clin Endocrinol (Oxf)
January 2025
Department of Endocrinology, Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences (SKIMS), Srinagar, J&K, India.
Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is associated with hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, and myocardial and valvular calcifications, leading to increased mortality rates. While the association between PHPT and diastolic dysfunction has been well-documented, data on systolic dysfunction and its reversal after curative parathyroidectomy (PTX) remains limited.
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of PTX on cardiovascular parameters, especially systolic dysfunction, in PHPT patients using conventional and speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE).
Left atrial appendage velocity, association with inflammatory indices in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients.

Echocardiography research Center, Rajaie cardiovascular medical and research Center, Iran University of Medical Science, Tehran, Iran.
Introduction: Decreased left atrial appendage emptying velocity (LAAV) is a marker for thrombus formation. This study evaluates the association between LAAV and inflammatory indices in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) patients.
Methods: The study population was 1428 patients with AF, 875 of whom enrolled.
