Non-linear finite element analyses of the aortic heart valve [PDF]

, 2004
Includes bibliographical references.Finite element models of the aortic heart valve have been successfully used in the past to gain insight into the mechanics of the valve and to aid in understanding of valve failure.

C-reactive protein in degenerative aortic valve stenosis

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis includes a range of disorder severity from mild leaflet thickening without valve obstruction, "aortic sclerosis", to severe calcified aortic stenosis.

Gene expression profiling of human calcific aortic valve disease

Genomics Data, 2016
Calcific aortic valve disease is a slowly progressive disorder that ranges from mild valve thickening (i.e. aortic sclerosis) to severe calcification of valves (i.e. aortic stenosis).

Regular exercise or changing diet does not influence aortic valve disease progression in LDLR deficient mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: The development and progression of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) shares a number of similarities with atherosclerosis. Recently we could demonstrate that regular exercise training (ET) as primary prevention prevents aortic valve ...

Association between Aortic Valve Sclerosis and Adverse Cardiovascular Events

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2015
As established in international guidelines, aortic valve sclerosis (AVS) is defined as an increased thickness and hardening of the aortic leaflets with no commissural fusion 1. One of the pioneers in the study of aortic sclerosis was Catherine Otto, who conducted several studies on this topic and verified the association between AVS and various ...

Aortic valve sclerosis is associatedwith systemic endothelial dysfunction

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2003
We sought to examine the association between aortic valve sclerosis (AVS) and systemic endothelial manifestations of the atherosclerotic process.Clinical and experimental studies suggest that AVS is a manifestation of the atherosclerotic process. Systemic endothelial dysfunction is an early sign of the atherosclerotic process and can be assessed by ...

Interdisciplinary three-step strategy to treat aortic stenosis and coronary artery disease in a patient with end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Valvular aortic stenosis is a common disease in the elderly, often in multimorbid patients. It is often associated with coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease.

Cost-utility of transcatheter aortic valve implantation for inoperable patients with severe aortic stenosis treated by medical management: a UK cost-utility analysis based on patient-level data from the ADVANCE study. [PDF]

, 2014
OBJECTIVE: To use patient-level data from the ADVANCE study to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) compared to medical management (MM) in patients with severe aortic stenosis from the perspective of the UK ...
