Transcatheter closure of Ventricular Septal defects in Malta : initial experience [PDF]

, 2005
Ventricular septal defects (VSD) consist of deficiencies of the wall separating the two ventricles. VSDs are the commonest congenital cardiac defects. Small VSDs rarely require intervention, however, larger defects cause ventricular volume overload with ...

Biventricular adaptation to volume overload in mice with aortic regurgitation

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2009
Background Aortic valve regurgitation is usually caused by impaired coaptation of the aortic valve cusps during diastole. Hypercholesterolemia produces aortic valve lipid deposition, fibrosis, and calcification in both mice and humans, which could impair

Hypertension, aortic stenosis, and aortic regurgitation [PDF]

Annals of Translational Medicine, 2018
The prevalence of hypertension (1) and of valvular aortic stenosis (2) increase with age, and both hypertension (3,4) and valvular aortic stenosis (5) cause left ventricular hypertrophy. Both hypertension (1,3) and valvular aortic stenosis (2,6) are also associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular events and mortality. Hypertension (either
