Background: Right ventricular volume overload (RVVO) is one of the most important hemodynamic characteristics in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) and heart failure, and cardiomyocyte (CM) proliferation is one of the most vital factors for improving cardiac performance. However, whether and how RVVO reboots CM proliferation remains elusive.

Methods And Results: We first created a neonatal RVVO mouse model via abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava-fistula microsurgery at postnatal day 7 (P7), the edge of CM proliferation window. We subsequently performed bulk RNA-seq, single cell RNA-seq/flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence staining on the right ventricles (RV) of RVVO mice at P14/P21, defined as prepubertal stage, revealing that RVVO temporarily reboots prepubertal CM proliferation via immune responses.

Conclusions: In considering the importance of RVVO and CM proliferation, this study may bring an opportunity to create a novel paradigm to treat pediatric CHDs or heart failure.

Effect of heart rate on B-type natriuretic peptide in sinus rhythm.

B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels accurately reflect the degree of cardiac overload in heart failure. Considering cardiac morphology and intracardiac pressure, including the left ventricular end-systolic volume index (LVESVI) and left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI), is essential for cardiac overload assessment. These indexes influence plasma BNP levels, and high heart rate is likely associated with cardiac morphology.

Aims: Right ventricular (RV) failure causes high mortality in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). RV stroke work index (RVSWi) poses as a potential predictor of outcome. We evaluated how RVSWi by echocardiography (ECHO) or right heart catheterization (RHC) is altered following PAH treatment and if RVSWi is an indicator of outcome in PAH.

Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (A-AAD) with severe acute aortic regurgitation (AR) and coronary involvement is a potentially fatal condition that causes left ventricular volume overload and catastrophic acute myocardial infarction. We present the successful management of a patient using Impella 5.5 following cardiopulmonary arrest caused by A-AAD with severe acute AR and left main trunk (LMT) obstruction.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between spontaneous echocardiographic contrast (SEC) and left atrial (LA) parameters such as size, volume, and function in cats with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Cats were assigned into following groups: clinically healthy cats (n=8), HCM without SEC (n=12), and HCM with SEC (n=8). Left atrial shortening fraction (LAFS%) and left atrial fractional area change (LAFAC) had statistical significance between groups.

Background: Ventricular diverticula are a rare congenital cardiac disorder presenting with an extremely low incidence. The presence of an apical diverticulum of the right ventricle has been associated with other congenital heart diseases such as tetralogy of Fallot. An important defining characteristic of ventricular diverticula that separates them from aneurysms through imaging techniques, is that they possess myocardial contraction synchronous to the adjacent walls, contributing to the ventricular stroke volume, so they do not usually require surgical treatment.
