Large scale genome-wide association analyses identify novel genetic loci and mechanisms in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Open
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality with both monogenic and polygenic components. We here report results from the largest HCM genome-wide association study (GWAS) and multi-trait analysis (MTA…

Left Ventricle Structure and Function in Young Adults Born Very Preterm and Association with Neonatal Characteristics Open
Preterm birth increases risk of cardiovascular disease and early death. A body of evidence suggests left ventricle (LV) echocardiographic alterations in children and adults born preterm. We aimed to determine if neonatal characteristics we…

Percutaneous transmitral balloon commissurotomy using a single balloon with arteriovenous loop stabilisation: an alternative when there is no Inoue balloon Open
Our modified Nucleus balloon technique for mitral valve dilation in young patients with mitral stenosis is effective and safe. The technique differs from other over-the-wire techniques in that it avoids placing stiff wire in the left ventr…
