This pathology is related to the disappearance of the 'Windkessel' phenomenon, normally enabling the aortic walls to store potential energy during systole, which is released to the thoracic aorta blood flow during diastole. Furthermore, severe low-output syndrome or distributive shock can render the aortic walls incapable of exploiting their elasticity, which usually enhances the power of aortic blood flow. Moreover, the increased release of catecholamines, or their large-scale administration, causes vasoconstriction, mainly in the abdominal aorta and iliac-femoral branches. This increases peripheral resistance, but to a lesser extent in the supra-aortic branches, whose network becomes competitive and remains supplied with a sufficient amount of blood. From a pathological point of view, aortitis can be caused by an increase in the release of inflammatory cytokines, enhanced by ischemia resulting from a decrease in blood supply from the vasa vasorum, a consequence of shock. This pathology, easily detected by Echocardiography, must be considered an important sign of shock and is worthy of further investigation using 4D MRI aortic angiography.</p>","PeriodicalId":19814,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145302553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Selected D-TGA fetuses between January 2019 and June 2024 as the D-TGA group and an equal number of normal fetuses (gestational age (GA) matched ± 1 week) as the control group. The AAO-DAO outer/internal distance (AAO-DAO OD/ID) and DAO diameter were measured in the aortic arch long-axis view, and the AAO-DAO ODI/IDI were calculated, which are the ratios of AAO-DAO OD/ID to DAO. The relationship between AAO-DAO OD/ID and AAO-DAO ODI/IDI and GA of the normal group was analyzed. The differences in AAO-DAO ODI/IDI between the D-TGA and the normal fetuses were compared, and the difference between the D-TGA with intact ventricular septum (D-TGA-IVS) and the D-TGA with ventricular septal defects (D-TGA-VSD) was compared. The sensitivity and specificity of the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were applied to analyze the discrimination ability of AAO-DAO ODI/IDI for D-TGA and normal fetuses and D-TGA-IVS and D-TGA-VSD. In the normal control group, the DOA ICC was 0.972 (95% CI 0.958-0.982), the AAO-DAO OD ICC was 0.988 (95% CI 0.983-0.992), and the AAO-DAO ID ICC was 0.978 (95% CI 0.967-0.985); in the D-TDA group, the DAO ICC was 0.975 (95% CI 0.956-0.989), the AAO-DAO OD ICC was 0.994 (95% CI 0.991-0.996), and the AAO-DAO ID ICC was 0.991 (95% CI 0.987-0.994). The AAO-DAO OD (r = 0.811, P &lt; 0.001) and AAO-DAO ID (r = 0.707, P &lt; 0.001) increased with increasing GA.

The AAO-DAO ODI (r = 0.080, P = 0.511) and AAO-DAO IDI (r = 0.096, P = 0.433) did not significantly correlate with GA. In the D-TGA group, the AAO-DAO ODI/IDI were greater than the normal group (6.35 ± 0.43 vs 4.65 ± 0.35, t = - 25.385, P &lt; 0.001) and (4.30 ± 0.42 vs 2.69 ± 0.30, t = - 26.050, P &lt; 0.001).

A retrospective analysis of the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) database was conducted for survival of pediatric candidates (ages 0-18) listed for heart transplant from 1987 to 2023.

Analysis involved unadjusted and adjusted survival rates, with Kaplan-Meier survival curves and competing risk analysis models used to assess survival. For competing risk analysis, the primary outcome was waitlist mortality, while transplantation and removal from the waiting list due to improvement were competing outcomes.

CHD affects nearly 1% of live births globally, with a significant subset eventually requiring PVR due to valve dysfunction following primary repair procedures. Choosing between mechanical and biological valves is challenging, as both have significant limitations, including thrombosis, bleeding, degradation, and the need for reoperations. This study systematically evaluates the long-term outcomes and complications of PVR options to provide evidence-based guidance. Its goal is to optimize care and improve outcomes for pediatric CHD patients. This systematic review and meta-analysis followed PRISMA guidelines to compare outcomes and complications of mechanical versus biological PVR in congenital heart disease patients. A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, World of Science, and Scopus, screening studies based on defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data extraction and analysis were performed independently by two reviewers, with pooled prevalence rates calculated using a random-effects model. Ethical approval was not required as only published data were analyzed. This meta-analysis included 158 studies with a marked imbalance between valve types: 145 biological PVR studies (20,499 patients) versus only 13 mechanical PVR studies (1060 patients) from 7178 screened articles. This 19:1 patient ratio reflects the clinical rarity of mechanical PVR in CHD patients. For biological PVR, valve dysfunction rates increased over time: 4% at 1 year, 8% at 2-3 years, 12% at 4-6 years, 31% at 7-10 years, and 27% at 15-20 years. Reintervention rates also rose: 3% at 1 year, 7% at 2-3 years, 12% at 4-6 years, 29% at 7-10 years, and 43% at 15-20 years. Redo-PVR rates followed a similar trend: 2% at 1 year, 4% at 2-3 years, 8% at 4-6 years, 22% at 7-10 years, and 26% at 15-20 years. Mortality rates remained stable: 4% at 1-3 years, 6% at 4-6 years, and 6% at 15-20 years. Complications included arrhythmias (5%), infective endocarditis (3%), and overall complications (11%). For mechanical PVR, valve dysfunction was 4%, reoperation 6%, and redo-PVR 5%. Thrombosis occurred in 9%, bleeding in 4%, and mortality was 1%. Mechanical valves showed lower reintervention rates but higher thrombosis risks compared to biological valves. PVR shows low long-term mortality and complication rates for both mechanical and biological valves, though mechanical valves reduce redo-PVR but increase thrombosis and bleeding risks. The limited mechanical PVR data necessitates cautious interpretation due to small sample sizes and potential selection bias.

Instead, these meetings often become lengthy summaries of the patient's medical history, bringing us no closer to the goal of family centered partnership, an essential component of care for children with complex cardiac conditions. We propose the Trauma Informed Family Meeting (TIFM), which draws upon relational ethics, trauma informed care principles, and the most current empirical research on teamwork and family centered care in CICUs. Central to an effective TIFM are structured, pre-family meeting huddles, which provide opportunities for critical care teams to support one another, establish a shared understanding of medical facts and treatment recommendations, and develop an effective communication strategy. We propose guidelines for TIFMs, including those to be used before and during a TIFM. By shifting our perspective on the purpose of family meetings, a TIFM has the potential to set families on a trajectory to be fully engaged in treatment planning and medical decision-making, to ensure clinicians receive necessary supports, and for teams and families to emerge as strong partners in a child's cardiac care.</p>","PeriodicalId":19814,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145244790","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We identified isomeric bodily situs by ultrasound of upper abdominal inferior caval vein-descending aorta relationships. We identified 91 cases: 65 (71%) with left-isomeric (LI) and 26 (29%) with right-isomeric (RI) bodily situs. Of the 91, 87 had prenatal care, and 86 (99%) were prenatally diagnosed; however, 100% of those with CCVMs were prenatally diagnosed. Of the 91, 78 were live-born. Of the 78, 34 with LI bodily situs had no CCVM, and 44 (24 with LI and 20 with RI) had CCVM. Of the 44, 42 underwent a surgical procedure, and 31/42 (74%) had a preoperative CT scan. Of the 31, 14 had LI bodily situs, in which 79% had left atrial appendage isomerism (LAAI), 79% had left bronchial isomerism, 71% had polysplenia, and 64% had a transverse liver. Of the 31, 17 had RI bodily situs, in which 64% had right atrial appendage isomerism (RAAI), 59% had right bronchial isomerism, 82% had asplenia, and 82% had a transverse liver. Isomeric situses manifest heterogenic thoracoabdominal anatomical features; however, the majority with LI bodily situs had LAAI, left bronchial isomerism, polysplenia, and a transverse liver; and the majority with RI bodily situs had RAAI, right bronchial isomerism, asplenia, and a transverse liver. Further, the prenatal diagnosis was universal in Nevada for those with isomeric bodily situs and CCVMs.</p>","PeriodicalId":19814,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145252271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
