Clinical implications of the biomechanics of bicuspid aortic valve and bicuspid aortopathy
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), which affects up to 2% of the general population, results from the abnormal fusion of the cusps of the aortic valve. Patients with BAV are at a higher risk for developing aortic dilatation, a condition known as bicuspid ...

Long‐Term Durability of Transcatheter Aortic Valves in Patients With Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis
ABSTRACT Background Data concerning the long‐term durability of transcatheter aortic valves (TAVs) in patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis (AS) are lacking. Aims The study aims to report data on long‐term valve durability following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in bicuspid AS.

Abnormal Haemodynamic Flow Patterns in Bicuspid Pulmonary Valve Disease
Abnormal flow patterns in the aortas of those with bicuspid aortic valves (BAVs) are increasingly recognized as important in the pathogenesis of aortic dilatation but pulmonary flow patterns in bicuspid pulmonary valves have not been studied.

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Valve-preserving surgery on the bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]
Valve repair has emerged as an important intervention for the management of bicuspid aortic valve disease. This systematic review aims to assess the safety, efficacy and durability of bicuspid aortic valve repair. Initial searches yielded 682 abstracts, reduced by de-duplication to 370, of which 56 full papers were accessed and 30 met the inclusion ...

Increased calcification by erythrophagocytosis in aortic valvular interstitial cells
Abstract Background Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) progresses over time to severe aortic stenosis and eventually heart failure. Recent evidence indicates that intraleaflet haemorrhage (ILH) strongly promotes CAVD progression. However, it remains poorly understood how it mechanistically contributes to valvular calcification.

Reconstruction of the Bicuspid Aortic Valve [PDF]
Abicuspid aortic valve (BAV) occurs in 2% of the population and is a common reason for significant aortic regurgitation, particularly in the third and fourth decades of life.1 In these young patients, the choice of valve substitute is difficult. With a mechanical valve, the linearized risk of thromboembolic complications and anticoagulation-related ...

Multi‐omics sequencing and correlation analysis identified the beneficial role of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii (F. prausnitzii)‐derived butyric acid (BA) as a key metabolite in the restoration of valve function in calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). The therapeutic efficacy of BA in attenuating CAVD progression was confirmed in vitro, ex vivo, and in
