Computational fluid dynamics modelling of left valvular heart diseases during atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Although atrial fibrillation (AF), a common arrhythmia, frequently presents in patients with underlying valvular disease, its hemodynamic contributions are not fully understood. The present work aimed to computationally study how physical conditions imposed by pathologic valvular anatomy act on AF hemodynamics.

Treatment of mitral stenosis [PDF]
In patients with mitral stenosis the need for therapeutic intervention can be assessed by clinical and non-invasive data. Mitral valve replacement is indicated when marked dyspnoea on mild exertion, dyspnoea at rest or pulmonary oedema, haemoptysis, atrial fibrillation, recurrent systemic emboli or right ventricular failure occur in a patient with a ...

Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants in atrial fibrillation accompanying mitral stenosis: the concept for a trial. [PDF]
Patients at thromboembolic risk with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) can now be managed either with a vitamin K antagonist (VKA) or with a fixed dose of a non-VKA oral anticoagulant (NOAC), while patients with valvular AF have been restricted to ...

Tissue Doppler assessment of left ventricular diastolic function in rheumatic mitral stenosis
Background: Left ventricular systolic and diastolic functions are reported to be altered in mitral stenosis. Although conventional Doppler ultrasound recording of transmitral flow is used in the assessment of left ventricular diastolic function, yet, in ...

Introduction: The most common valvular heart disease is mitral stenosis. Mitral stenosis is an abnormality of the heart valve which causes reduced blood flow from the left atria to the left ventricle due to narrowing of mitral valve orifice during its ...

CardioXNet: A Novel Lightweight Deep Learning Framework for Cardiovascular Disease Classification Using Heart Sound Recordings [PDF]
The alarmingly high mortality rate and increasing global prevalence of cardiovascular diseases signify the crucial need for early detection schemes. Phonocardiogram (PCG) signals have been historically applied in this domain owing to its simplicity and cost-effectiveness.

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 ...

Awake Surgical Mitral Valve Repair after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has become a popular choice for cases with severe aortic stenosis. However, when severe mitral regurgitation is comorbid in high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis, therapeutic options must be weighed for ...

Exercise intolerance is a common complication in long‐term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem‐cell transplantation. In this study, we found reduced oxygen uptake (VO2peak) by cardio‐pulmonary exercise tests to be associated with left ventricular systolic dysfunction by echocardiography.
