    Abstract Mutations in sarcomere genes can cause both hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, the complex genotype-phenotype relationships in pathophysiology of cardiomyopathies by gene or mutation location are not fully understood. In addition, it is still unclear how mutations within same molecule result in different clinical phenotypes such as HCM and DCM. To clarify how the initial functional insult caused by a subtle change in one protein component of the sarcomere with a given mutation is critical for the development of proper effective treatments for cardiomyopathies. Fortunately, recent technological advances and the development of direct sarcomere modulators have provided a more detailed understanding of the molecular mechanisms that govern the effects of specific mutations. The direct inhibition of sarcomere contractility may be able to suppress the development and progression of HCM with hypercontractile mutations and improve clinical parameters in patients with HCM. On the other hand, direct activation of sarcomere contractility appears to exert unexpected beneficial effects such as reverse remodeling and lower heart rate without increasing adverse cardiovascular events in patients with systolic heart failure due to DCM. Direct sarcomere modulators that can positively influence the natural history of cardiomyopathies represent promising treatment options.

    Abstract To propose reference values for air-kerma at the reference point (Ka,r), air-kerma area product (PKA), fluoroscopy time (FT) and number of cine images (CI) for four age groups in Japan, a nationwide questionnaire was posted to 132 pediatric catheterisation of certified facility in Japan, using the conventional post system, to which 43 facilities responded. For diagnostic cardiac angiography, reference values were as follows: Ka,r: 86, 102, 165 and 264 mGy; PKA: 9.3, 9.5, 16 and 34 Gy.cm2; FT: 33, 29, 26 and 30 min and CI: 1904, 1966, 2405 and 1871 images. For therapeutic cardiac angiography, reference values were as follows: Ka,r: 107, 163, 103 and 202 mGy; PKA: 7.5, 18, 7 and 24 Gy.cm2; FT: 56, 52, 42 and 30 min and CI: 3886, 3232, 2212 and 4316 images for less than 1, 1-5, 6-10 and 11-15 y, respectively. To optimal patient exposure from diagnostic and therapeutic cardiac catheterisation, it is therefore necessary to establish reference values for pediatric cardiac catheterisation examinations for four age groups.

    Abstract Background: The mediastinal shift angle is a new fetal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) index that is reportedly correlated with postnatal survival in fetuses with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. However, its correlation in patients with congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) has not been assessed.
    Objective: This study aimed to establish a normal range for the right/left mediastinal shift angles, to evaluate the mediastinal shift angle in fetuses with CPAM, to compare the mediastinal shift angle with the CPAM volume ratio, and to evaluate the predictive value of the mediastinal shift angle measurements.
    Materials and methods: To establish the normal range, we measured the mediastinal shift angle bilaterally in 124 fetuses without any lung abnormality (the control group). Subsequently, the mediastinal shift angle was measured in 32 fetuses pathologically diagnosed with CPAM. Moreover, the mediastinal shift angle and CPAM volume ratio were compared using fetal MRI.
    Results: The mean values for the right/left mediastinal shift angles were 18.6°/26.3° and 39.2°/35.9° for control fetuses and fetuses with CPAM, respectively. The mediastinal shift angle and the CPAM volume ratio showed a positive statistical correlation. The area under the curve demonstrated high discriminatory accuracy for the mediastinal shift angle (0.76).
    Conclusion: The mediastinal shift angle has potential to replace the CPAM volume ratio for evaluating the severity of CPAM in fetal MRI.
