Lipoprotein(a) and Its Autoantibodies in Association with Calcific Aortic Valve Stenosis
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common valvular heart disease in the Western world. Lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is an independent risk factor of coronary heart disease (CHD) and calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS).

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Dialysis Patients [PDF]
Background/Aims: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has emerged as a new therapeutic option for high-risk patients. However, dialysis patients were excluded from all previous studies.

Post-stenotic aortic dilatation. [PDF]
Aortic stenosis is the most common valvular heart disease affecting up to 4% of the elderly population. It can be associated with dilatation of the ascending aorta and subsequent dissection.

SENILE CALCIFIC AORTIC VALVE STENOSIS: MODERN INTERVENTIONS IN UKRAINE
Background. Aortic valve stenosis remains the most dominant form of valvular heart disease. The aortic valve area below 1.0 cm2 is an assignment to the interventions.

A Coupled Multiscale Approach to Modeling Aortic Valve Mechanics in Health and Disease
Mechano-biological processes in the aortic valve span multiple length scales ranging from the molecular and cell to tissue and organ levels. The valvular interstitial cells residing within the valve cusps sense and actively respond to leaflet tissue ...

Transcatheter aortic-valve replacement for inoperable severe aortic stenosis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Transcatheter aortic-valve replacement (TAVR) is the recommended therapy for patients with severe aortic stenosis who are not suitable candidates for surgery. The outcomes beyond 1 year in such patients are not known.

Animal Models of Calcific Aortic Valve Disease [PDF]
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD), once thought to be a degenerative disease, is now recognized to be an active pathobiological process, with chronic inflammation emerging as a predominant, and possibly driving, factor. However, many details of the pathobiological mechanisms of CAVD remain to be described, and new approaches to treat CAVD need to be
