Iron Deposition following Chronic Myocardial Infarction as a Substrate for Cardiac Electrical Anomalies: Initial Findings in a Canine Model [PDF]

, 2013
Purpose: Iron deposition has been shown to occur following myocardial infarction (MI). We investigated whether such focal iron deposition within chronic MI lead to electrical anomalies. Methods: Two groups of dogs (ex-vivo (n = 12) and in-vivo (n = 10))

Intra-cardiac pressure drop and flow distribution of bicuspid aortic valve disease in preserved ejection fraction

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundBicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is more than a congenital defect since it is accompanied by several secondary complications that intensify induced impairments. Hence, BAV patients need lifelong evaluations to prevent severe clinical sequelae.
