Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

ABSTRACT Introduction The prevalence of bioprosthetic aortic valve failure is increasing due to the broader use of bioprosthetic valves, both surgical and transcatheter, and an ageing population. Registry data indicate a higher risk of coronary obstruction and elevated gradients following valve‐in‐valve transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI ...

ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...

Sex-dependent aortic valve pathology in patients with rheumatic heart disease.
BackgroundRheumatic heart disease is an autoimmune disease caused by group A streptococci infection and frequently affects the aortic valve. Sex differences are common in the disease progression, treatment, and outcome. However, little is known about the

ABSTRACT Background Despite recommendations in international guidelines, Intracoronary pressure wire assessment (PWA) utilization remains limited in clinical practice. This study aims to describe (i) trends of PWA during Percutaneous coronary interventional (PCI), (ii) factors that predict its application, and (iii) association with in‐hospital ...

ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with the Acurate Neo has been linked to a significant incidence of paravalvular leakage (PVL), addressed by the Acurate Neo 2 incorporating an active sealing skirt. Recent findings suggest that midframe under‐expansion is associated with worse outcomes.

Almanac 2014: Aortic Valve Disease
The past few years have seen major advances in the diagnosis of aortic valve disease and in our understanding of the pathophysiology of disease. In addition, transcatheter aortic valve implantation has transformed our clinical management options. This article summarises new aortic valve disease research published in Heart in 2013 and 2014, within the ...
