DOI: 10.1002/ppul.23531
Abstract: Background: Lung ultrasounds show vertical artifacts known as B‐lines in the presence of increased extravascular lung water (EVLW). We aimed to investigate whether lung ultrasound could estimate EVLW after congenital cardiac surgery. Methods: This prospective… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951122003316
Abstract: Decision-making in congenital cardiac care, although sometimes appearing simple, may prove challenging due to lack of data, uncertainty about outcomes, underlying heuristics, and potential biases in how we reach decisions. We report on the decision-making… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cge.14107
Abstract: Here, we delineate the phenotype of two siblings with a bi‐allelic frameshift variant in MMP15 gene with congenital cardiac defects, cholestasis, and dysmorphism. Genome sequencing analysis revealed a recently reported homozygous frameshift variant (c.1058delC, p.Pro353Glnfs*102)… read more here.
