Sex differences in bicuspid aortic valve disease
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2020 Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most frequent congenital heart disease, is characterized by an uneven distribution between sexes. BAV is three to four times more frequent in men than in women which could be associated with a reduced dosage of X chromosome genes.
