Mashup Score: 0
Acute rheumatic fever and its chronic sequela, rheumatic heart disease (RHD), pose major health problems globally, and remain the most common cardiovascular disease in children and young people worldwide. Echocardiography is the most important diagnostic tool in recognizing this preventable and treatable disease and plays an invaluable role in detecting the presence of subclinical disease needing…

Mashup Score: 3Atrial Cardiomyopathy with Impaired Functional Reserve in Patients with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation - 2 year(s) ago
Impaired atrial functional reserve during exercise may represent an early stage of atrial cardiomyopathy. To test this hypothesis, the authors evaluated left atrial (LA) and left ventricular (LV) function reserve during exercise in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).

Autologous bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) therapy and withdrawal of calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) has been shown to improve systemic blood pressure control and left ventricular hypertrophy regression in kidney transplant recipients. In the current subanalysis, we aimed to evaluate the impact of this novel immunosuppressive regimen on the longitudinal changes of left atrial…

Mashup Score: 0The Left Atrium Makes Headlines - 2 year(s) ago
The associations of left atrial (LA) enlargement with chronic diastolic dysfunction1 and increased mortality in various cardiac conditions2,3 have long been recognized. However, the LA’s active and complex relationship with total cardiac performance has only more recently become appreciated. This issue of JASE includes four important papers on LA remodeling and mechanics.4-7

Mashup Score: 6Key Echocardiographic Considerations for Tricuspid Valve Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair. - 2 year(s) ago
Chronic tricuspid regurgitation (TR) results in progressive right ventricular (RV) volume overload, followed by right-sided chamber dilatation, RV systolic dysfunction and eventual low-output cardiac failure. Severe TR is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality, and yet until recently, patients in the late stage of their disease course had limited treatment options. Cognisant of the…

Mashup Score: 2Video-Based Deep Learning for Automated Assessment of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction in Pediatric Patients - 2 year(s) ago
Significant interobserver and interstudy variability occurs for left ventricular functional indices despite standardization of measurement techniques. Artificial intelligence models trained on adult echocardiograms are not likely to be applicable to a pediatric population. We present EchoNet-Peds, a video-based deep learning algorithm, which matches human expert performance of left ventricular…

The role of left atrial (LA) strain as an imaging biomarker in aortic stenosis is not well established. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic performance of phasic LA strain in relation to clinical and echocardiographic variables and N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide in asymptomatic and minimally symptomatic patients with moderate to severe aortic stenosis and left…
