Medical devices for tricuspid regurgitation have emerged as viable treatment options for patients who do not respond to drug therapy or who are unsuitable for open-heart surgery due to high surgical risk. Recently, numerous new medical devices have been proposed and approved for use. Therefore, comprehensive reviews of the literature on the current medical devices for tricuspid regurgitation are necessary.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of asthma severity on biventricular cardiac functions using tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE), and three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE).
Methods: Sixty-three children with asthma, aged between 5 and 16 years, were enrolled in the study along with 63 matched controls. All participants underwent cardiac assessments, including TDI, 2D-STE, 3D-STE, conventional echocardiography, and pulmonary function testing with spirometry.

Cor triatriatum is a rare congenital heart defect that divides the right or left atrium into three chambers. Although the diagnosis is typically made within the first years of birth, it can occasionally be made later in adulthood and is frequently associated with other cardiac defects but may be present in isolation. Clinical manifestations range from lung congestion, exhaustion, coughing, and dyspnea to the onset of heart failure.

Introduction: The natural history of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) remains inadequately characterized, leaving uncertainties regarding whether associated aortic dilatation arises from an inherent susceptibility or primarily results from altered flow dynamics across the aortic valve. We aimed to describe the evolution of valve function and aortic dilatation at preschool-age in children diagnosed with BAV neonatally.
Methods: The population study, Copenhagen Baby Heart Study (n >25,000) performed in 2016-2018, diagnosed 196 newborns (0.

Background And Objective: To develop an end-to-end artificial intelligence solution-video-based Multi-Point Tracking Network (MPTN), for detecting and tracking atrioventricular junction (AVJ) points from cardiovascular magnetic resonance and deriving AVJ motion parameters.
Methods: The MPTN model consists of two modules: AVJ point detection and AVJ motion tracking. The detection module utilizes convolutional-based feature extraction and elastic regression to detect all candidate AVJ points.
