Planar Cell Polarity Signaling in Mammalian Cardiac MorphogenesisPediatric Cardiology - Tập 39 - Trang 1052-1062 - 2018
Ding Li, Jianbo Wang
The mammalian heart is the first organ to form and is critical for embryonic
survival and development. With an occurrence of 1%, congenital heart defects
(CHDs) are also the most common birth defects in humans, and major cause of
childhood morbidity and mortality (Hoffman and Kaplan in J Am Coll Cardiol
39(12):1890–1900, 2002; Samanek in Cardiol Young 10(3):179–185, 2000).

Effective Radiation Dose in Computed Tomographic Angiography of the Chest and Diagnostic Cardiac Catheterization in Pediatric PatientsPediatric Cardiology - Tập 34 - Trang 518-524 - 2012

Computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and cardiac catheterization are useful
adjuncts to echocardiography for delineating cardiovascular anatomy in pediatric
patients. These studies require ionizing radiation, and it is paramount to
understand the amount of radiation pediatric patients receive when these tests
are performed. Modern dosimetry methods facilitate the conversion of radiation
doses of... hiện toàn bộ
Safety of Magnetic Resonance Imaging After Implantation of Stainless Steel Embolization CoilsPediatric Cardiology - Tập 37 - Trang 62-67 - 2015

Stainless steel embolization coils (SSEC) have been used for over four decades
for vascular occlusion. Recently, the safety of these coils in a magnetic
resonance environment has been called into question, with important
ramifications for thousands of patients with existing coils in place. We
performed a retrospective chart review at five tertiary care pediatric centers
evaluating all children and... hiện toàn bộ
Partially Penetrant Cardiac Neural Crest Defects in Hand1 Phosphomutant Mice: Dimer Choice That Is Not So CriticalPediatric Cardiology - Tập 40 - Trang 1339-1344 - 2019
Beth A. Firulli, Anthony B. Firulli
Hand1 is a basic Helix–loop–Helix transcription factor that exhibits
post-translationally regulated dimer partner choice that allows for a diverse
set of Hand1 transcriptional complexes. Indeed, when Hand1 phosphoregulation is
altered, conditionally activated hypophorylation (Hand1PO4−) and phosphorylation
mimic (Hand1PO4+) Hand1 alleles disrupt both craniofacial and limb morphogenesis
with 100% p... hiện toàn bộ

Cardiac Function After Repair of Tetralogy of Fallot: How are the Atria Performing? Pilot Study by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance ImagingPediatric Cardiology - Tập 36 - Trang 96-105 - 2014

The atria of the heart function as reservoir, conduit, and active pump and are
critical for ventricular filling and cardiac output. We sought to evaluate right
(RA) and left atrial (LA) function in patients after tetralogy of Fallot (TOF)
repair by using cardiovascular magnetic resonance. Twelve TOF patients, age
16.7 ± 6.1 years, weight 50.9 ± 14.9 kg, were compared to 10 healthy volunteers,
