Summary: For patients with d-TGA and a systemic right ventricle after atrial switch surgery, the progression to end-stage heart failure or death is slow. The study identified predictive factors associated with adverse outcomes and developed a simplified scoring system to identify high-risk patients.

Summary: The factors associated with progression to end-stage congestive heart failure (CHF) in patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) remain unclear. A retrospective cohort study of 558 adults with ccTGA found that older age, history of atrial arrhythmia, and severe right ventricular (RV) dysfunction were independent predictors for the primary outcome. The primary outcome was highest in patients with both moderate/severe RV dysfunction and tricuspid regurgitation.

Summary: This study reveals the genetic mechanism of dextro-transposition of the great arteries (D-TGA), identifies a susceptibility locus near the WNT5A gene, and confirms the role of WNT5A in D-TGA. The findings provide important insights for the treatment of D-TGA.

Summary: Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries is a rare condition representing approximately 0.5% of congenital heart disease, characterized by atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance. Patients with cc-TGA are at risk for cardiac arrhythmias due to abnormalities of the conduction system. Autopsy can help grossly identify the cardiac pathology characteristic of cc-TGA.

Summary: Nonverbal emotion recognition accuracy (ERA) is essential for successful communication, and two different training programs focusing on multimodal expressions and micro expressions respectively were evaluated. Results showed that the training program focusing on multimodal expressions was more effective in improving overall ERA, while the one focusing on micro expressions was more effective in improving micro expression ERA specifically. Transfer effects of the training programs were not observed, and participants with lower baseline ERA showed more improvements.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of abnormal perinatal loading conditions on the cardiac geometry and function of term fetuses and neonates with transposition of the great arteries. It found that fetal cardiac parameters could predict the need for an urgent balloon atrial septostomy after birth in neonates with transposition of the great arteries. The findings suggest that detailed cardiac assessment of fetuses with transposition of the great arteries near term could improve perinatal management and timing of intervention strategies.

Summary: This study investigated humans' ability to recognize facial expressions represented by a small set of landmarks and differences in conscious observational behaviors. The results show that humans can recognize positive expressions with high accuracy, but recognition of negative expressions is not as high. Personality traits and observational behaviors significantly influence the recognition of facial expressions.

Summary: The systematic literature review presented the state-of-the-art on emotion expression recognition from facial images, classifying the methods into classical and neural networks approaches and finding a marginally better recognition precision for classical approaches. Additionally, it verified the most popular datasets for facial expression and emotion recognition, demonstrating a real demand for reliable data-sources.

Summary: Facial microexpressions are brief, subtle, and involuntary movements of facial muscles reflecting genuine emotions. A study developed fEMG and EEG-based methods for detection and recognition of emotions reflected in microexpressions, showing potential usability in practical scenarios. EEG was found to be more useful than fEMG for classifying discrete emotions, with the best F1 scores being 0.962 for EEG and 0.797 for fEMG.

Summary: The increased trend of pregnancy among women with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) has led to a growing demand for specialized care. Maternal CHD, especially in cases of Systemic Right Ventricle (SRV), may pose additional risks and challenges during pregnancy. Current literature lacks conclusive evidence on the feasibility and long-term effects of successful pregnancies in women with SRV.

Summary: The current longitudinal study examined maternal facial emotion recognition and infant affect-based attention using eye-tracking at different ages. The results showed consistent maternal responses to angry facial expressions, indicating a trait-like response to social threat among mothers. However, neither maternal responses to happy or fearful facial expressions nor infants' responses to all three facial emotions showed such consistency, suggesting the changeable nature of facial emotion processing, especially in infants. The study also found dynamic changes in infants' attention to negative emotions and limited evidence for developmental continuity in processing negative emotions and the bidirectional interplay of infant affect-biased attention and maternal facial emotion recognition.

Summary: This study examined Doppler parameters in the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and umbilical artery (UA) in fetuses with transposition of the great arteries (TGA) and evaluated their potential in predicting the need for urgent balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) in neonates. The results showed that the Doppler parameters in TGA fetuses were generally within normal limits, and the presence of a ventricular septal defect did not significantly affect these parameters. Additionally, the peak systolic velocity (PSV) in the MCA increased after 35 weeks, and a low MCA-PSV value measured at 38 weeks or later could predict the need for urgent BAS.

Summary: The study suggests that early anatomic repair may be preferable to physiologic repair for select ccTGA patients. Late attrition after physiologic repair represents failure of expectant management and progressive tricuspid valve and morphologic right ventricular dysfunction compared with anatomic repair, where morphologic left ventricular function is relatively preserved.

Summary: Individuals with congenital heart disease show moderate deficits in executive functions, including cognitive flexibility, inhibition, working memory, planning/problem solving. More attention should be paid to identifying executive dysfunction in this vulnerable group.

Summary: Research in neurodevelopmental and psychosocial interventions for congenital heart disease (CHD) has shown the benefits of early individualized care in improving outcomes. However, interventions tailored for individuals with CHD and their families are still needed to address challenges in cognitive, social-emotional, and self-regulatory aspects, as well as to ensure inclusivity and cultural sensitivity.

Summary: This study aimed to develop a specific and valid intelligence assessment tool for patients with DM1. Through data analysis, three short-forms were developed, all showing a strong correlation with Full-Scale IQ and being considered psychometrically acceptable. Assessing FSIQ in this population will help avoid lengthy assessment procedures.

Summary: Functional hemispherectomy has good outcomes for refractory epilepsy and provides an opportunity to study cerebral plasticity and reorganization of lateralized brain functions. Previous studies have shown the brain's remarkable ability to recover language after left hemispherectomy. However, right hemispherectomy leads to greater impairment in face and emotional facial expression processing.

Summary: Social dysfunction in myotonic dystrophy type 1 may result from impaired cognitive flexibility and social contextualization, rather than a specific deficit in social cognition such as emotion recognition. Neuroimaging analysis revealed atrophy mainly in the parahippocampal and hippocampal regions, indicating their involvement in social navigation and mental flexibility.

Summary: This study evaluated the predictive ability of RACHS-1 and ABC scores for infant mortality risk in newborns with structural CHD. The results showed that the RACHS-1 score had better predictive ability, but both scores had low predictive ability when assessed using a variance-explained measure. It is important to develop new predictive models that encompass all newborns with structural CHD.
