Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most common congenital cardiovascular malformation with prevalence of 1-2% in the human population (Hoffman, 1990; Hoffman & Kaplan, 2002). Current clinical and scientific studies reveal that bicuspid aortic disease is not a simple valve condition.

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.

Risk factors for paravalvular leak after transcatheter aortic valve replacement [PDF]
Objective. To assess risk factors for paravalvular leak (PVL) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in a large single-center cohort, including measurement of aortic valve calcification using a reproducible method. Methods.

Aortendilatation und Funktion des linken Ventrikels bei bikuspider Aortenklappe [PDF]
Einleitung: Die bikuspide Aortenklappe (BAK) ist mit einer Prävalenz von 0.5-2% der häufigste angeborene Herzfehler. Die Dilatation der Aorta ascendens ist eine häufige Begleiterkrankung der BAK, die im schlimmsten Fall zum plötzlichen Herztod bei ...

NOTCH signalling is indispensable for tissue homeostasis and, consequently, corruption of its normal function promotes numerous diseases, including cancer. However, the development of targeted therapies has been hampered by inefficacy and overt toxicity. Here, we show that NOTCH receptor dimerization is necessary for receptor transactivation, which has

Study of the correlation between bicuspid aortic valve and the development of aortic dissection [PDF]
La disección aórtica (AD) es la condición letal más comúnmente diagnosticada de la arteria aorta y consiste en el redireccionamiento del flujo sanguíneo desde el lumen de la aorta hasta la media de la pared de la aorta a través de una pequeña fisura en ...

Sequencing of NOTCH1, GATA5, TGFBR1 and TGFBR2genes in familial cases of bicuspid aortic valve [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The purpose of our study was to investigate the potential contribution of germline mutations in NOTCH1, GATA5 and TGFBR1 and TGFBR2 genes in a cohort of Italian patients with familial Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV). METHODS: All the coding exons

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

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.

The Evolving Landscape of CHD Genetics: A Contemporary Guide to Genetic Testing and Management
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, affecting an estimated 9.4/1000 infants globally. The genetics of CHD is complex, with most cases thought to have multifactorial aetiology, implicating both genetic and environmental factors.
