ABSTRACT Background Valve‐in‐valve (ViV) procedures are an established therapy. Self‐expanding (SE) supra‐annular transcatheter heart valves (THV) achieve superior hemodynamics compared to balloon‐expandable (BE) intra‐annular THV, but influence of stent design versus valve position remains unclear.

Aims High-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays provide higher diagnostic accuracy for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) when compared with conventional assays, but may result in increased use of unnecessary coronary angiographies due to their ...

ABSTRACT Background Despite the emergence of the transcaval (TCv) access route for transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in the treatment of patients with hostile iliofemoral anatomy, the number of patients reported in clinical series of TCv TAVI has been relatively small (< 500 published cases). We assessed procedural and clinical outcomes in

Breaking the Barrier: Unraveling the No‐Reflow Phenomenon in Cardiovascular Medicine
ABSTRACT The no‐reflow phenomenon is a stubborn and often devastating complication in cardiovascular medicine, where blood flow is restored to an artery, yet the microvasculature remains unresponsive. First identified in 1967, this phenomenon has haunted clinicians and researchers alike, particularly in the context of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Carotid artery disease screening : assessment of criteria [PDF]
The Department of Radiology at St. Luke’s Hospital has provided a screening service for stroke related disease since April 1991. This consisted of Duplex Ultrasound screening (DUS) for Extracranial Carotid Artery Disease (ECAD) followed by angiography or

ABSTRACT Surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) is the standard treatment for symptomatic severe neo‐aortic regurgitation in Ross patients. The only previous report of a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in a Ross patient required valve‐in‐valve rescue. Thus, this is the first uncomplicated TAVI procedure in a Ross patient.

Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Background: Isolated coronary artery anomalies are usually clinically silent and mostly detected incidentally during angiography or autopsy. However, few of them may be implicated in cases of sudden cardiac death even in the absence of additional heart ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Diagnosing significant left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenoses based on anatomical criteria remains challenging. The ARMYDA FINISH multicenter study evaluated whether indexing intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)‐derived minimum lumen area (MLA) provides greater diagnostic accuracy than unindexed MLA for detecting ...
