Impairments in Adipose Tissue Microcirculation in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Assessed by Real-Time Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound [Microvascular Disease]
Conclusions: Impaired microvascular function in adipose tissue during T2D is not conditionally linked to systemic inflammation but is associated with other characteristics of the metabolic syndrome (obesity, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia).

Acute Versus Chronic Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation: An Echocardiographic Study of Anatomy and Physiology [Original Articles]
Conclusions: Sudden-onset left ventricular dysfunction in acute MI may cause loss of coaptation of the MV even with a relatively mild degree of valve tethering. Compared with previously studied chronic IMR, a smaller leaflet area without leaflet adaptation and a larger hemodynamic burden at the acute onset of MI could result in clinically significant IMR despite relatively small leaflet tethering.

Early Cardiac Involvement Affects Left Ventricular Longitudinal Function in Females Carrying {alpha}-Galactosidase A Mutation: Role of Hybrid Positron Emission Tomography and Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography [Original Articles]
Conclusions: In females carrying α-galactosidase A mutation, focal 18F-FDG uptake represents an early sign of disease-related myocardial damage and is associated with impaired left ventricular longitudinal function. These findings support the hypothesis that inflammation plays an important role in glycosphingolipids storage disorders. (Source: Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging)

Multiplexed Optical Imaging of Energy Substrates Reveals That Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Is Associated With Brown Adipose Tissue Activation [Molecular Imaging]
Conclusions— A multiplexed optical imaging technique is presented that allows substrate uptake to be simultaneously quantified in multiple tissues in a high throughput manner. The activation of brown adipose tissue occurs early in the onset of left ventricular hypertrophy, which produces tissue-specific changes in substrate uptake that may play a role in the systemic response to cardiac pressure overload.
