Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have overlapping clinical features and share pathobiological mechanisms but are often considered distinct disorders. Prospective, observational studies across asthma, COPD and asthma-COPD overlap are limited. NOVELTY is a global, prospective observational 3-year study enrolling ∼12 000 patients ≥12 years of age from primary and specialist clinical practices in 19 countries (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02760329). NOVELTY's primary objectives are to describe patient characteristics, treatment patterns and disease burden over time, and to identify phenotypes and molecular endotypes associated with differential outcomes over time in patients with a diagnosis/suspected diagnosis of asthma and/or COPD.

The right ventricle provides systemic circulation in individuals with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) and in those with complete transposition who have had an atrial switch repair (DTGA).

Preventing A Catastrophe: Increasing Awareness Of Loeys-Dietz Syndrome, Bradley S Kane, Kamran Shamsa Feb 2019

Preventing A Catastrophe: Increasing Awareness Of Loeys-Dietz Syndrome, Bradley S Kane, Kamran Shamsa

The Texas Heart Institute Journal

Loeys-Dietz syndrome is a genetic disorder that predisposes patients to aortic aneurysms. If left untreated, the natural history of the associated aortopathy often culminates in fatal aortic dissection. We describe the case of a 21-year-old man who was diagnosed with Loeys-Dietz syndrome after 2 family members died of aortic dissection. This case highlights the importance of increased physician awareness of this syndrome, which can play a crucial role in preventing premature sudden cardiac death caused by aortic catastrophe.

Role Of Multimodal Cardiac Imaging In Diagnosing A Primary Intimal Sarcoma Of The Left Atrial Appendage, Kara L Raphael, Anthony P Martinez, Stephen D Clements, Ijeoma Isiadinso Feb 2019

Role Of Multimodal Cardiac Imaging In Diagnosing A Primary Intimal Sarcoma Of The Left Atrial Appendage, Kara L Raphael, Anthony P Martinez, Stephen D Clements, Ijeoma Isiadinso

The Texas Heart Institute Journal

Primary cardiac tumors are rare, and most are benign. Intimal sarcomas are among the rarest of the malignant cardiac tumors; they are aggressive and associated with a poor prognosis. Whereas transesophageal echocardiography has been instrumental in evaluating cardiac masses, other imaging methods, such as cardiac magnetic resonance, have proved invaluable in accurately characterizing these masses. We present the case of a 49-year-old woman in whom we diagnosed a primary intimal sarcoma of the left atrial appendage, and we discuss the importance of multimodal imaging in the evaluation and diagnosis of cardiac masses.
