    Intracardiac echocardiography for percutaneous closure of atrial septal defects: initial experiences in Japan

    Transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) has been widely performed as a less invasive alternative to surgery with zero mortality so far in Japan. In the US and Europe, intracardiac echocard...

    Eicosapentaenoic acid suppresses adverse effects of C-reactive protein overexpression on pressure overload-induced cardiac remodeling

    Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) elevation is associated with poor clinical outcome in patients with heart failure (HF). We previously reported that CRP exacerbates the development of pressure overload-induced c...
