DOI: 10.1007/s10914-020-09503-y
Abstract: Xenarthra, one of the major clades of placentals, comprises two different lineages (sloths and anteaters, and armadillos) with extant representatives showing strongly different morphologies and life habits. Sloths are arboreal herbivores, anteaters are insectivores with… read more here.

Atrial fibrillation and left atrial size and function: a Mendelian randomization study
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-87859-8
Abstract: Atrial fibrillation (AF) patients have enlarged left atria (LA), but prior studies suggested enlarged atria as both cause and consequence of AF. The aim of this study is to investigate the causal association between AF… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jvim.16496
Abstract: Abstract Background Three‐dimensional (3D) echocardiography and 2‐dimensional (2D) strain measurements of the right ventricle (RV) are important indices in humans with pulmonary hypertension (PH) and need further evaluation in dogs with PH. Objectives To evaluate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1159/000496451
Abstract: Background: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are antidepressants prescribed in 10% of pregnancies in the USA. We have previously shown in preclinical studies that sertraline exposure impacts cardiomyocyte development, leading to reductions in left ventricular… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s13054-019-2375-z
Abstract: BackgroundRight ventricle (RV) size and function assessment by echocardiography (echo) is a standard tool in the ICU. Frequently subjective assessment is performed, and guidelines suggest its utility in adequately trained clinicians. We aimed to compare… read more here.
