Arrhythmic risk in elderly patients candidates to transcatheter aortic valve replacement. predicative role of repolarization temporal dispersion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Degenerative aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated to ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death, as well as mental stress in specific patients. In such a context, substrate, autonomic imbalance as well as repolarization dispersion abnormalities ...

Racial Differences in the Use of Aortic Valve Replacement for Treatment of Symptomatic Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis in the Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement Era

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
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.

Epidemiology and cardiovascular risk factors of aortic stenosis

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2006
The abnormalities of aortic valve morphology and function represent the most common cardiac-valve lesion particularly in elderly. The etiology of aortic stenosis is degenerative-calcific in the majority of patients.

Incidence of Ischemic Stroke in Individuals With and Without Aortic Valve Stenosis

open access: yesStroke, 2020
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background and Purpose— Aortic valve stenosis may lead to atrial and ventricular remodeling, predisposes to atrial fibrillation, and may also be an independent risk factor of ischemic stroke. However,

Galectin-3 as a novel biotarget in cardiovascular alterations associated to development of severe aortic stenosis

open access: yesAnales del Sistema Sanitario de Navarra, 2019
Aortic stenosis is one of the most common heart valve diseases, as well as one of the most common causes of heart failure in the elderly. Currently, there are no medical therapies to prevent or slow the progression of the disease.

How rare is isolated rheumatic tricuspid valve disease? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The incidence of rheumatic fever (RF) has markedly decreased in Europe since the beginning of the 20th century due to improved living conditions, early antibiotic therapy in streptococcal pharyngitis, and changes in serotypes of circulating streptococci.
