Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedure in the case of an anteroposterior relationship of great vessels.
Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedure in the case of an anteroposterior relationship of great vessels.: New evidence identified. See linked sources for details.
The patient remains clinically stable at the 6-month follow-up.
Relevance: Video tutorial of Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedure with bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt in pediatric patient with complex congenital heart disease. Directly relevant to single ventricle outcomes and Fontan circulation research interests. Demonstrates surgical management of anatomic variations in single ventricle physiology.

Truncal valve repair combined with right atrial appendage valved right ventricular-to-pulmonary connection in truncus arteriosus type II with single coronary artery.
Truncal valve repair combined with right atrial appendage valved right ventricular-to-pulmonary connection in truncus arteriosus type II with single coronary artery.: New evidence identified. See linked sources for details.
The patient also had a single coronary artery.
Relevance: Case of truncus arteriosus type II repair in 2-month-old infant with heart failure and cyanosis, including truncal valve repair. Directly relevant to pediatric congenital heart disease management. While truncus arteriosus is not explicitly listed in diagnoses, it shares single-outlet physiology relevant to single ventricle outcomes research interest.

Barriers to Optimization of Medical Therapy and the Role of Checklist-Based Decision Support in Heart Failure.
Barriers to Optimization of Medical Therapy and the Role of Checklist-Based Decision Support in Heart Failure.: New evidence identified. See linked sources for details.
These data suggest that attention to cost, clinical inertia, and desire to minimize medications should be prioritized in future iterations.
Relevance: Article discusses guideline-directed medical therapy optimization for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction in adult populations. While heart failure is a research interest in the profile, the focus is on adult HFrEF management strategies and decision support tools rather than pediatric congenital heart disease populations (HLHS, TOF, TGA, Fontan) that are central to this practice.

Modified double-volume exchange transfusion in 2 infants with severe pertussis and hyperleukocytosis.
Modified double-volume exchange transfusion in 2 infants with severe pertussis and hyperleukocytosis.: New evidence identified. See linked sources for details.
Modified double-volume exchange transfusion is a safe and effective treatment for infants with severe pertussis and hyperleukocytosis.
Relevance: Case series of infants with severe pertussis and hyperleukocytosis treated with exchange transfusion. Discusses pulmonary hypertension and heart failure complicating infection in pediatric patients. Related to pulmonary hypertension and heart failure research interests but not about profile diagnoses directly.

Echocardiographic characterization and markers of cardiovascular risk in adults with sickle cell disease in a Colombian tertiary referral centre: A cross-sectional study.
Echocardiographic characterization and markers of cardiovascular risk in adults with sickle cell disease in a Colombian tertiary referral centre: A cross-sectional study.: New evidence identified. See linked sources for details.
These findings support the routine use of transthoracic echocardiography as an accessible tool for early cardiovascular risk stratification in adults with SCD in low- and...
Relevance: Echocardiographic characterization of cardiovascular involvement in sickle cell disease adults, with findings of pulmonary hypertension in subset. Related to pulmonary hypertension research interest but not about profile diagnoses. Adult population data may inform understanding of pulmonary hypertension pathophysiology relevant to pediatric cardiology.
