High Agatston aortic valve calcium score predicts transcatheter paravalvular aortic regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2014
MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the records of 303 patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement with the SAPIEN/SAPIEN XT valve (Edwards Lifesciences Corporation, Irvine, Calif) from November 2008 through August 2013. From this population, a study group was created of the 99 patients (32.9%) who underwent preopertive contrast ...

Mitral Annular and Coronary Artery Calcification Are Associated with Mortality in HIV-Infected Individuals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundHIV infection increases cardiovascular risk. Coronary artery calcification (CAC) and mitral annular calcification (MAC) identify patients at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The purpose of this study was to examine the association between

Possible predicative role of electrical risk score on transcatheter aortic valve replacement outcomes in older patients. preliminary data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background:Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an effective procedure capable to change the natural history of the degenerative aortic valve stenosis.

Pre-interventional assessment and calcification score of the aortic valve and annulus, with multi-detector CT, in transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) using the Medtronic CoreValve

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Radiology, 2015
Background: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) provides an acceptable alternative for aortic valve replacement in the elderly, but needs accurate pre-procedural imaging to optimise intervention.

Paravalvular leak with ACURATE neo and neo2: a comparative study with calcium quantification

open access: yesREC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2023
Introduction and objectives: Moderate or severe paravalvular leak (PVL) following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has been associated with worse outcomes. Aortic valve (AV) calcification is a strong predictor of PVL.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Dialysis Patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background/Aims: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has emerged as a new therapeutic option for high-risk patients. However, dialysis patients were excluded from all previous studies.

HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aortic calcification is an important independent predictor of future cardiovascular events. We performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis to determine SNPs associated with the extent of abdominal aortic calcification (n = 9,417) or descending ...

18F-sodium fluoride and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography for assessment of aortic valve inflammation and calcification in patients with aortic stenosis

open access: yesРоссийский кардиологический журнал, 2019
Aim. To determine the inflammation and calcification activity in aortic stenosis (AS) by assessing the accumulation of 18F-FDG and 18F-NaF in the aortic valve; to study the relationship of the AS severity, aortic calcification and the accumulation of 18F-

Impact of aortic valve replacement in symptomatic low-risk patients with less than severe aortic stenosis

open access: yesOpen Heart, 2023
Objective To evaluate whether transcatheter or surgical aortic valve replacement (TAVR or SAVR) affects clinical and haemodynamic outcomes in symptomatic patients with moderately-severe aortic stenosis (AS).Methods Echocardiographic evidence of severe AS

Arrhythmic risk in elderly patients candidates to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. predicative role of repolarization temporal dispersion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, as well as mental stress in specific patients. In such a context, substrate, autonomic imbalance as well as repolarization dispersion abnormalities ...
