All statements and opinions expressed in the journal are the sole responsibility of the authors. A letter of transmittal accompanying the manuscript signifies that all authors actively participated in the research, reviewed, and concur with the article’s content.
3. Open Access Opportunities: Authors are encouraged to explore the open access companion titles, CJC Open and CJC Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease, providing additional avenues for disseminating research to a broader audience.
