Dexmedetomidine as a Ropivacaine Adjuvant in a Thoracic Paravertebral Block Combined With an Erector Spinae Plane Block for Improving Early Quality of Recovery After Transapical Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of dexmedetomidine (Dex) as an adjuvant for ropivacaine in a thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) combined with an erector spinae plane block (ESPB) for improving early quality of recovery and postoperative pain after transapical transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

Relation of Bicuspid Aortic Valve Morphology to the Dilatation Pattern of the Proximal Aorta: Focus on the Transvalvular Flow

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2012
Whether the dilatation of proximal aorta in patients with bicuspid aortic valve is secondary to hemodynamic effects related to the abnormal aortic valve or a primary manifestation of the genetic disorder remains controversial.

Cyclin‐dependent kinase 13 is indispensable for normal mouse heart development

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 616-630, April 2025.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common defect in live births. The role of cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK13) in cardiogenesis and CHD was studied using a transgenic mouse model (Cdk13tm1b) carrying deletion of exons 3 and 4, causing loss of function.

Bicuspid aortic valve disease

open access: yesSA Heart, 2017
The prevalence of bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is 0.5 - 2% of the population with a 3:1 male predominance. The genetic basis remains unknown although 9% of families have more than one affected individual. Life expectancy in patients with BAV is similar to the general population with a 10-year survival of over 95%. Adverse outcomes are most often

Embryonic development of bicuspid aortic valves

open access: yesProgress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2020
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, frequently associated with aortopathies and valvulopathies. The congenital origin of BAV is suspected to impact the development of the disease in the adult life. During the last decade, a number of studies dealing with the embryonic development of congenital heart disease ...

Bicuspid Aortic Valve and Ascending Aortic Aneurysm in a Twin Pregnancy

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
Bicuspid aortic valve with ascending aortic aneurysm is a common condition encountered in pregnancy. There are limited data on how to manage these patients.

Aortic and cardiovascular remodelling after thoracic endovascular aortic repair for blunt traumatic aortic injury in younger patients: A narrative review of physiological and clinical outcomes

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Blunt traumatic aortic injury (BTAI) is severe, often fatal in younger populations due to high‐energy deceleration mechanisms. Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) has revolutionised BTAI treatment, surpassing the previously standard open surgical repair in mortality and complication rates.

Loss of wall stress homoeostasis in ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm: histomorphometric insights into patient variants

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Dynamic interplay between the extracellular matrix (ECM) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the medial layer of ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms (ATAA) associated with two variants: thickening (hypertrophic) and thinning (hypotrophic) aneurysm remodelling.

The Natural Course of Bosch‐Boonstra‐Schaaf Optic Atrophy Syndrome

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 168-178, August 2025.
Here, we present data on genetic variants and phenotype development of 47 individuals with Bosch‐Boonstra‐Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder, highlighting the fact that the disease does not appear to be fundamentally progressive.

Emergent Cardiac Surgery After Transcatheter Structural Heart Procedures: Narrative Review

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 136-143, July 1, 2025.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter structural heart procedures have become standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risk. Over time, these procedures have significantly increased worldwide, accompanied by a concomitant reduction of major complications, including those requiring emergent cardiac surgery (ECS).
