Don't judge an orogen by its cover: Kinematics of the Appalachian décollement from seismic anisotropy

Don’t judge the myocardium by its cover

A 51-year-old female presenting with fatigue demonstrated cardiac enlargement on her chest x-ray. The electrocardiogram was normal (Fig. 1). However, echocardiography suggested asymmetrical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging was performed for further evaluation. The cine images showed a maximum wall thickness of 28mm at the mid anterolateral segment (Fig. 2a; ...

Cortical Evolution: Judge the Brain by Its Cover

To understand the emergence of human higher cognition, we must understand its biological substrate--the cerebral cortex, which considers itself the crowning achievement of evolution. Here, we describe how advances in developmental neurobiology, coupled with those in genetics, including adaptive protein evolution via gene duplications and the emergence of novel regulatory elements, can provide i...

Don't judge a book by its cover: don't judge stenosis severity solely by intravascular ultrasound.

In this issue of Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, Kang et al1 compare intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) parameters against a gold standard of fractional flow reserve (FFR) for evaluating intermediate stenoses. Their work adds another piece of evidence to a debate whose outcome is fundamentally changing interventional cardiology. As encapsulated by the title of the “FFR versus Angiograph...
