The association of obstructive sleep apnea and left ventricular hypertrophy in obese and overweight children with history of elevated blood pressure
TLDR
OSA was significantly associated with LVH among overweight/obese youth with EBP, even after adjustment for age, sex, race, and BMI z‐score, and future studies exploring the impact of OSA treatment on CVD risk in children are needed.

Personalized computational heart models with T1-mapped fibrotic remodeling predict sudden death risk in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
TLDR
An imaging-based computational heart approach is used to analyze how HCM-specific remodeling of the heart promotes arrhythmogenesis and to develop a personalized strategy to forecast risk of VAs in HCM patients and indicates that the presence of diffuse fibrosis, which is rarely assessed in these patients, increases arrh rhythmogenic propensity.

Myocardial strain abnormalities in fetuses with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum
TLDR
Speckle‐tracking echocardiography (STE), an angle‐independent technique for assessing global and regional strain, may be a more sensitive way of determining ventricular systolic dysfunction compared with traditional 2D echOCardiography.
