Etiology of bicuspid aortic valve disease: Focus on hemodynamics

World Journal of Cardiology, 2014
The bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common form of inheritable cardiac defect. Although this abnormality may still achieve normal valvular function, it is often associated with secondary valvular and aortic complications such as calcific aortic valve disease and aortic dilation.

An Infective Endocarditis Case Report Involving Both Native Aortic and Mitral Valves Due to Streptococcus Vestibularis

Prague Medical Report
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a life-threatening disease, with its mortality rate varying depending on the infectious agent. Streptococci are among the most common causes of infective endocarditis.

The Duke minor criterion "predisposing heart condition" in native valve infective endocarditis – a systematic review

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2018
BACKGROUND The term “predisposition” is used as an indication of antimicrobial prophylaxis to prevent infective endocarditis and as a criterion for diagnosing infective endocarditis according to the modified Duke criteria.

Interval changes in aortic peak velocity and wall shear stress in patients with bicuspid aortic valve disease

The International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging, 2019
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is associated with abnormal valve-mediated hemodynamics including high velocity jets and elevated wall shear stress (WSS). This study investigated interval changes in flow and WSS in a multi-year follow-up study.

Specific circulating microRNA signature of bicuspid aortic valve disease

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2017
BackgroundWe aimed to determine the circulating miRNA expression profile associated with BAV and aortic dilation to provide diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for BAV and/or aortic dilation.Methods and resultsWe applied a miRNome-wide microarray ...

The bicuspid aortic valve and thoracic aortic disease

, 2023
About 1% of the population is born with an aortic valve composed of only two cusps, called a bicuspid aortic valve. Bicuspid aortic valve is associated with a high risk of both aortic valve disease and ascending aortic dilatation, which develop at a significantly earlier age than in patients with a normal tricuspid aortic valve.

Valvulopathies and Genetics: Where are We?

Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine
Valvulopathies are among the most common cardiovascular diseases, significantly increasing morbidity and mortality. While many valvular heart diseases are acquired later in life, an important genetic component has been described, particularly in mitral ...
