Epidemiology and cardiovascular risk factors of aortic stenosis
The abnormalities of aortic valve morphology and function represent the most common cardiac-valve lesion particularly in elderly. The etiology of aortic stenosis is degenerative-calcific in the majority of patients.

Early Outcomes of Aortic Valve Bicuspidization Using Autologous Pericardium in Pediatric Aortic Stenosis: a Preliminary Case Series [PDF]
Aortic valve bicuspidization using autologous pericardium is a promising valve-sparing technique for treating aortic stenosis in pediatric patients. However, literature describing this procedure in children remains limited.

This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Objective Although Takayasu arteritis (TAK) is not a prototypical autoantibody‐mediated disease, accumulating evidence suggests that B cells are involved. This study aimed to investigate the pathway of B cell activation and its contributions to TAK pathogenesis. Methods Histologic analysis of paravascular lymph nodes and affected arteries was conducted

Aim Temporal shifts in patient characteristics can influence comparative treatment effects within a certain indication. We investigated patient characteristics and comparative effectiveness and safety for direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and warfarin over the time period where DOACs replaced warfarin as preferred stroke prophylaxis in patients with ...

How to achieve balloon stability in aortic valvuloplasty using rapid ventricular pacing [PDF]
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty is now the treatment of choice for congenital aortic stenosis. Balloon stability may be difficult to achieve and this may result in a suboptimal result or even valve damage.
