Journal ArticleDOI
Benefits of Early Surgical Repair in Fixed Subaortic Stenosis
TL;DR: The data suggest that surgical resection of fixed subaortic stenosis before the development of a significant outflow tract gradient may prevent recurrence, reoperation and secondary progressive aortic valve disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Abnormal dynamic cardiorespiratory responses to exercise in pediatric patients after Fontan procedure
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that submaximal gas exchange responses to progressive exercise and recovery times after brief high intensity exercise are abnormal in patients after the Fontan procedure and speculate that the prolonged recovery of HR and VO2 provides a possible mechanism for reduced physical activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors influencing survival in patients undergoing the bidirectional Glenn anastomosis
Juan C. Alejos,Roberta G. Williams,Jay M. Jarmakani,Alvaro Galindo,Josephine Isabel-Jones,Davis C. Drinkwater,Hillel Laks,Samuel Kaplan +7 more
TL;DR: Several factors were related to failure in patients who underwent BGA including pulmonary artery pressure, systemic right ventricle, and presence of anomolous pulmonary venous drainage and heterotaxy syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of assist devices and ECMO to bridge pediatric patients with cardiomyopathy to transplantation.

TL;DR: Pulsatile and continuous-flow devices can complement each other to significantly extend the lives of a wide range of pediatric patients with severe cardiomyopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolated isobutyryl-coa dehydrogenase deficiency : an unrecognized defect in human valine metabolism
Charles R. Roe,Stephen D. Cederbaum,Diane S. Roe,Rebecca Mardach,Alvaro Galindo,Lawrence Sweetman +5 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that in the human, there is an isobutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase which exists as a separate enzyme serving only the valine pathway in addition to the 2-methyl branched-chain dehydrogen enzyme which serves both the valines and the isoleucine pathways in both rat and human.
