Comparison Between the Acurate Neo and the Acurate Neo 2 Transcatheter Heart Valve System: Impact of Midframe Under‐Expansion

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) with the Acurate Neo has been linked to a significant incidence of paravalvular leakage (PVL), addressed by the Acurate Neo 2 incorporating an active sealing skirt. Recent findings suggest that midframe under‐expansion is associated with worse outcomes.

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Literature review and red‐flag symptom clusters for each cardiology specialty

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 955-967, April 2025.
Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1029-1044, April 2025.
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).
