We report a neonate with severe Marfan syndrome (MS), prenatally identified to have persistent atrial tachycardia, biventricular dysfunction, and an unusual structure within the atria. Detailed postnatal echocardiographic evaluation and cross-sectional imaging confirmed congenital pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa. Emergent testing by next-generation sequencing identified a FBN1 pathological variant, key to establishing goals of care. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a congenital pseudoaneurysm of the mitral-aortic intervalvular fibrosa in MS.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 August 2022.
All research outputs
#28,757,775
of 34,528,520 outputs
Outputs from American Journal of Medical Genetics. Part A
#3,504
of 4,780 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#362,957
of 474,658 outputs
Outputs of similar age from American Journal of Medical Genetics. Part A
#35
of 53 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,528,520 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 4,780 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.9. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 474,658 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 53 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 18th percentile – i.e., 18% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
