Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Artificial chordae for mitral valve repair
Background: Mitral valve repair using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene sutures to replace mitral chordae tendineae is a well-established procedure. However, the incidence of neo-chordae failure causing recurrent mitral regurgitation is not well defined ...

Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Repair Options for Mitral Regurgitation
Mitral valve repair is the treatment of choice for severe degenerative mitral regurgitation providing better freedom from cardiac events, quality of life and long-term survival compared with mitral valve replacement. Increasing numbers of asymptomatic patients are therefore referred for mitral repair.

Abstract Aims Amyloid cardiomyopathy is caused by the deposition of light chain (AL) or transthyretin amyloid (ATTR) fibrils, that leads to a restrictive cardiomyopathy, often resulting in heart failure (HF) with preserved or reduced ejection fraction.

Transcatheter mitral valve repair with the PASCAL precision system: First case in Singapore
Severe mitral regurgitation (MR) is associated with significant mortality and morbidity when left untreated.1 In patients who are not suitable for surgery, transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) provides a minimally-invasive therapeutic option.
