Patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) can be treated with a double switch operation (DSO) to restore the normal anatomical connection of the left ventricle (LV) to the systemic circulation and the right ventricle (RV) to the pulmonary circulation. The subpulmonary LV progressively deconditions over time due to its connection to the low pressure pulmonary circulation and needs to be retrained using a surgical pulmonary artery band (PAB) for 6-12 months prior to the DSO. The subsequent clinical follow-up, consisting of invasive cardiac pressure and non-invasive imaging data, evaluates LV preparedness for the DSO.

Neurodegeneration refers to the gradual loss of neurons and extensive changes in glial cells like tau inclusions in astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, α-synuclein inclusions in oligodendrocytes and SOD1 aggregates in astrocytes along with deterioration in the motor, cognition, learning, and behavior. Common neurodegenerative disorders are Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Huntington's disease (HD), spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), and supranuclear palsy. There is a lack of effective treatment for neurodegenerative diseases, and scientists are putting their efforts into developing therapies against them.

Introduction: The incidence of severe BPD (sBPD), defined as needing oxygen or positive pressure at 36 weeks corrected gestational age (CGA), has remained unchanged. These infants are at risk for developing late pulmonary hypertension (LPHN) or needing surgical interventions such as Gastrostomy Tubes (GT) or Tracheostomy Tubes (TT). The finding of pepsin in the lungs of infants who were extremely low birth weight (ELBW) with sBPD has led to the speculation that gastroesophageal reflux (GER) and aspiration could contribute to their lung disease.
