First transfemoral biologic aortic valve implantation in Slovenia
Calcified aortic stenosis is the most frequent valvular heart disease in the Western world. It is a progressive, degenerative, atheroscleroticlike process that involves the aortic valve with increasing prevalence as the population ages.

The frequency and severity of congenital heart disease vary extensively in individuals with 22q11.22–23 distal deletions. Reduced gene dosage particularly within the low copy repeat (LCR22) D–E region including MAPK1 and HIC2 conveys risk for these defects.

Summary An 18‐year‐old Warmblood mare was presented to the Royal Veterinary College Equine Referral Hospital for investigation of progressive periocular and facial swelling, weight loss and tachycardia. Physical examination additionally identified bilateral pansystolic (grade 5/6 basilar left‐sided, 2/6 right‐sided), cardiac murmurs, submandibular ...

Neurological Complications after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation Procedure
Aortic stenosis is the most common primary valvular heart disease in both Europe and North America. In patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, early surgical treatment is recommended because of the very poor prognosis and the lack of effect of ...

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Dietary and genetic stress trigger different routes to heart failure. In mice, a carbohydrate‐free high‐fat diet caused mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired energy production with preserved pumping function, while genetic obesity led to heart enlargement, fibrosis, and reduced function.

ABSTRACT Aim To provide a structured analysis of the acceptability of transcatheter aortic valve implantation to support clinical conversations, decision making and recovery for older adults with aortic stenosis and their carers. Background While transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an effective treatment for heart valve disease, its ...
