Impact of the indexed effective orifice area on mid-term cardiac-related mortality after aortic valve replacement [PDF]
Background There has been ongoing controversy as to whether prosthesis-patient mismatch (PPM, defined as indexed effective orifice area (EOAI)

Progression of aortic valve sclerosis to aortic stenosis
level or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations. Itwould be interesting to know the effects of thesefactors on severe calcific AS.In summary, this large case-control study showsthat the development of severe AS caused by thecalcific degenerative process is not simply a conse-quence of aging.

Resolution of Occlusive Carotid Artery Thrombus Treated with Anticoagulation as Demonstrated on Duplex Ultrasonography. [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While the majority of cerebral ischemic events due to carotid occlusive disease result from atherosclerotic plaque rupture, intraluminal carotid artery thrombus occasionally occurs in patients without preexisting carotid ...

Patient-specific image-based computer simulation for theprediction of valve morphology and calcium displacement after TAVI with the Medtronic CoreValve and the Edwards SAPIEN valve [PDF]
AIMS: Our aim was to validate patient-specific software integrating baseline anatomy and biomechanical properties of both the aortic root and valve for the prediction of valve morphology and aortic leaflet calcium displacement after TAVI.

Stenosis of systemic semilunar valve in cyanotic congenital heart defects is rare. It can happen in truncus arteriosus with truncal valve stenosis and the very rare anomaly of tetralogy of fallot with aortic valve stenosis.

A 3-month-old female was diagnosed at 1 month of age with DeSanto-Shinawi syndrome (DSS) and bicuspid aortic valve with trivial stenosis. The aortic valve stenosis progressed to severe within 2 months and required balloon aortic valvuloplasty.

Experimental aortic valve stenosis in rabbits
We studied a known rabbit model of atherosclerosis to assess the effect of a hypercholesterolemic diet on aortic valve morphology and function. We also evaluated the effects of the combination of this diet with vitamin D supplements on the development of the disease and the occurrence of valve calcification.Aortic valve stenosis (AVS) is the most ...

This study reveals how vorticity—a swirling flow pattern—enhances platelet aggregation and thrombus formation in high‐shear conditions. Using a custom microfluidic model, it is shows that vorticity promotes vWF–GPIbα interactions and calcium signaling, providing new insights into thrombosis mechanobiology and informing safer blood‐contacting medical ...
