In this review, we provide a brief description of recently published articles addressing topics relevant to pediatric cardiologists. Our hope is to provide a summary of the latest articles published recently in other journals in our field. The articles address (1) preterm birth association with ventricular fibrosis and diastolic dysfunction in adulthood, (2) shared decision-making as a viable strategy to counsel patients with long QT syndrome to return to play, (3) using pulmonary-to-aortic surgical shunt in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension which is associated with similar 5-year survival compared to lung transplant, (4) the use of donor-derived cell-free DNA to screen for heart transplant rejection, and (5) the role of microvasculature in hypoplastic left heart syndrome using cardiac magnetic resonance.

在这篇综述中，我们简要描述了最近发表的涉及儿科心脏病专家相关主题的文章。我们希望提供最近在我们领域的其他期刊上发表的最新文章的摘要。这些文章涉及 (1) 早产与成年期心室纤维化和舒张功能障碍的关联，(2) 共同决策作为建议长 QT 综合征患者重返赛场的可行策略，(3) 使用肺主动脉严重肺动脉高压患者的外科分流术，与肺移植相比，其 5 年生存率相似，(4) 使用供体来源的无细胞 DNA 筛查心脏移植排斥反应，以及 (5) 微血管系统的作用使用心脏磁共振检查左心发育不全综合征。
