Article Abstract
Global and regional biventricular functions were analyzed in 14 patients diagnosed with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy using cine magnetic resonance imaging and compared with similar data from 18 age-matched controls. In this study, we report results of quantitative evaluation of biventricular global and regional function using peak ejection rate and peak filling rate as measures of systolic and diastolic function, respectively (volumetric method).

Ultrasonographic assessment of bypass capacity after revascularization surgery in moyamoya disease: a systematic review and single-arm meta-analysis.
Acta Neurochir (Wien)
September 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Medical University of Gdańsk, Gdańsk, Poland.
Purpose: Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a chronic cerebrovascular disorder characterized by progressive arterial stenosis and fragile collateral formation, elevating stroke risk. Revascularization is the standard treatment, yet up to 27% of patients experience ischemic events within a year due to bypass insufficiency. While digital subtraction angiography (DSA) remains the gold standard for assessing bypass function, it is invasive and time-consuming.

Background: Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a rare connective tissue disorder (CTD) with musculoskeletal, craniofacial, and cardiovascular features with a prevalence of approximately 1:50,000. Morbidity and mortality often occur earlier in patients with LDS compared to patients with other CTDs.
Case Summary: We present a teenager with subacute heart failure, 4/6 holosystolic murmur with diastolic rumble, facial differences, and arachnodactyly.
Impact of Urate-Lowering Therapy after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention on the Long- Term Prognosis of Patients with Hyperuricemia.

Department of Cardiology, The Ninth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital.
Background Hyperuricemia (HUA) frequently coexists with coronary artery disease (CAD) and is linked to adverse cardiovascular outcomes. The long-term impact of urate-lowering therapy (ULT) on clinical outcomes, including all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), in CAD patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been determined. That was the aim of this study.
