Balloon Versus Self-Expandable Valve for the Treatment of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Stenosis
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Large data comparing the performance of new-generation self-expandable versus balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valves in bicuspid aortic stenosis are lacking.

High-sensitivity troponin I concentrations are a marker of an advanced hypertrophic response and adverse outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis [PDF]
Aims: High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (cTnI) assays hold promise in detecting the transition from hypertrophy to heart failure in aortic stenosis.

Transcatheter or Surgical Aortic-Valve Replacement in Intermediate-Risk Patients.
BACKGROUND Previous trials have shown that among high-risk patients with aortic stenosis, survival rates are similar with transcatheter aortic-valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic-valve replacement. We evaluated the two procedures in a randomized

Abstract Background Severe atherosclerosis of the ascending aorta (SAA) in patients undergoing surgical revascularization by coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is becoming an increasing problem as more elderly patients are diagnosed with coronary artery disease.

Aortic valve stenosis: Prognosis and therapy
There is a long latent period in the clinical course of aortic valve stenosis in adults. Symptoms usually occur in the case of critical stenosis, when aortic orifice area is under 0.7cm2 (0.4 cm2/m2). In this study 78 patients with critical aortic valve stenosis were investigated. The first manifestation of the disease was dyspnea (78.2%), angina (52.5%

A Role for MMP-10 (Matrix Metalloproteinase-10) in Calcific Aortic Valve Stenosis
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Objective: Aortic valve (AV) calcification plays an important role in the progression of aortic stenosis (AS).

Predicting progression of aortic stenosis by measuring serum calcification propensity
Abstract Background The aim of this prospective, double‐blinded study in patients with aortic sclerosis was to determine whether a new calcification propensity measure in the serum could predict disease progression. Methods We included 129 consecutive patients with aortic sclerosis as assessed during a routine clinical echocardiographic exam. Clinical,

Impact of Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis on Coexisting Mitral Stenosis
The course of coexisting mitral valve stenosis is not clear after aortic valve replacement (AVR) for aortic stenosis (AS). We investigated the effect of AVR for AS on coexisting mitral stenosis (MS).Between January 2002 and December 2019, 1338 consecutive patients underwent surgical AVR at Shiga University of Medical Science.

Background Aortic valve replacement (AVR) is a life‐saving treatment for patients with symptomatic severe aortic valve stenosis. We sought to determine whether transcatheter AVR has resulted in a more equitable treatment rate by race in the United States.
