Central arterial stiffness in young adults with perinatal HIV exposure & infection.
AIDS
January 2025
Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, University of Buffalo, Buffalo NY.
Objective: To compare arterial stiffness between young adults with perinatally acquired HIV (YAPHIV) and young adults perinatally HIV exposed but uninfected (YAPHEU).
Design: Cross-sectional analysis of pulse wave velocity (PWV) measures among participants with echocardiography in the PHACS Cardiac Toxicity Substudy.
Methods: A total of 150 participants (95 YAPHIV, 55 YAPHEU, mean 23.
Left atrial appendage velocity, association with inflammatory indices in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients.
Future Cardiol
January 2025
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.
The association between systolic and diastolic dysfunction and autonomic nervous system function in children receiving chronic hemodialysis.
Pediatr Nephrol
January 2025
Cardiology Department, Faculty of Medicine (Girls), Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt.
Background: Changes in cardiac function and structure as well as their association with the cardiac autonomic nervous system remain incompletely characterized in children with stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving hemodialysis (HD).
Methods: A prospective observational cohort study was conducted on 40 Egyptian children with CKD on regular HD compared to 40 age- and sex-matched healthy children. All participants underwent thorough clinical examination, laboratory investigations, 24-h Holter monitoring, and 2D/4D echocardiographic study (conventional and advanced modalities).
Comprehensive Echocardiographic Protocol for Pigs with Emphasis on Diastolic Function: Advantages over MRI Assessment.
Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol
January 2025
Interdisciplinary Stem Cell Institute, University of Miami Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine, Miami, Florida.
Swine are increasingly utilized in cardiovascular research due to their anatomical and physiological similarities to humans, particularly for studying diastolic dysfunction. While MRI offers excellent structural imaging, echocardiography provides superior real-time assessment of diastolic parameters. To address the lack of standardized methods and reduce variability across studies, we present a comprehensive guide for performing echocardiography in Yorkshire pigs, detailing anatomical considerations, equipment requirements, and technical approaches.

Echocardiography
February 2025
Cardiovascular Department, Tokushima University Hospital, Tokushima, Japan.
Background: Speckles tracking echocardiography imaging enables clinicians to detect subtle systolic dysfunction. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the differences in speckle tracking echocardiographic findings between immunoglobulin light chain amyloid cardiomyopathy (AL-CM) and transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (TTR-CM).
Methods: The patients with a confirmed diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis through cardiac biopsy from March 2013 to October 2022 were included.
