Journal ArticleDOI

Novel missense mutations in exon 15 of desmoglein-2: Role of the intracellular cadherin segment in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy?

TL;DR: Loss of plakoglobin immunoreactivity from the intercalated disks appears to be the endpoint of complex pathologic changes, and functional data suggest that yet unknown posttranslational modifications of desmoglein-2 might be involved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Community prevalence, mechanisms and outcome of mitral or tricuspid regurgitation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the community prevalence of moderate or greater mitral or tricuspid regurgitation (MR/TR), and compare subjects identified by population screening with those with known valvular heart disease (VHD), to understand the mechanisms of MR/TR and to assess the rate of valve intervention and long-term outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial Infarction With Intracardiac Thrombosis as the Presentation of Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Diagnosis and Follow-Up by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

TL;DR: A 29-year-old woman presented in February 2010 with acute-onset severe chest pain and was diagnosed with myopericarditis and discharged from the accident and emergency department with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories.
Journal ArticleDOI

Do patients at risk of infective endocarditis need antibiotics before dental procedures

TL;DR: Specific patient subgroups are at increased risk of infective endocarditis as a result of damaged cardiac endothelium, abnormal blood flow, intracardiac prosthetic material, immunosuppression, or recurrent bacteraemia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infective endocarditis complicating transcatheter aortic valve implantation

TL;DR: Research is required to better select patients for advanced hybrid imaging, to guide surgical management and to inform prevention in this challenging patient cohort of TAVI-IE, where robust evidence for specific preventative strategies is lacking.
