Epidemiology and cardiovascular risk factors of aortic stenosis

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
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.

The Impact of Hydrostatic Pressure on Fractional Flow Reserve in Saphenous Vein Grafts

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The relationship between height differences related to graft anatomy and physiological pressure indices in coronary bypass grafts has not been studied. We sought to study the impact of hydrostatic pressure on fractional flow reserve (FFR) in saphenous vein grafts (SVGs).

Left Ventricular Unloading in Nonischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy Improves Coronary Haemodynamic Reserve

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Impella CP is a catheter‐based ventricular assist device used in the management of cardiogenic shock and to support high‐risk percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Despite its growing use, the effects of Impella CP on coronary flow dynamics as measured by intracoronary continuous thermodilution have not been fully ...

Ischaemic Heart Disease Masquerading as Headache: A Case Series

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Headache is a rare yet clinically significant presentation of ischaemic heart disease (IHD). While chest pain is the hallmark symptom of myocardial ischaemia (MI), some patients present with atypical symptoms, such as headaches, which lead to diagnostic challenges and potential delays in treatment.
