Real-time imaging required for optimal echocardiographic assessment of aortic valve calcification [PDF]

, 2012
Introduction Aortic valve calcification (AVC), even without haemodynamic significance, may be prognostically import as an expression of generalized atherosclerosis, but techniques for echocardiographic assessment are essentially unexplored.

Long‐term outcomes of microsurgical interdental papilla reconstruction: 13‐year and 18‐year case follow‐ups

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Loss of the interdental papilla compromises esthetics, speech, and hygiene, significantly affecting quality of life and psychological well‐being. Reconstruction has long been considered unpredictable, particularly in Cairo RT3 cases with advanced interproximal bone loss.

Balloon‐Expandable Versus Self‐Expanding Valves in Low‐Flow, Low‐Gradient Aortic Stenosis: Does Valve Type Matter?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The optimal choice between balloon‐expandable (BE) and self‐expanding (SE) transcatheter heart valves (THVs) in patients with low‐flow low‐gradient aortic stenosis (LFLG AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) remains unclear.
