Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 9, Issue 10, Page 1964-1981, October 2026.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Echocardiography in the follow-up of patients with prosthetic heart valves

Archives of Acoustics, 2015
In 26 patients with aortic and in 25 with mitral valve disease changes in the size, hypertrophy and function of the left ventricle (LV) within 2 years of aortic or mitral valve replacement were evaluated and compared with the preoperative ...

Culture‐Negative Infective Endocarditis Presumed due to Brucella Causing Rapid Native Aortic Valve Destruction in a Young Adult: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Culture‐negative endocarditis with features consistent with Brucella can rapidly destroy a normal aortic valve in young adults. 2023 Duke‐ISCVID criteria (clinical/imaging findings plus histopathology), supported by serology and occupational exposure enabled urgent combined antimicrobial‐surgical management without culture confirmation ...

Diagnostic Performance of a Deep Learning Model Using Phonocardiogram and Single‐Lead ECG Signals for Detecting Moderate‐or‐Greater Aortic Stenosis: Multicenter External Validation

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 49, Issue 10, October 2026.
In an independent multicenter cohort of 951 patients undergoing echocardiography, a deep learning model analyzing an 8‐s heart sound and ECG recording detected moderate‐or‐greater aortic stenosis with 92.9% sensitivity and 87.9% specificity. This approach may support the decision to refer patients from auscultation to echocardiography.

Effect of the Mitral Valve on the Intra Ventricular Hemodynamics

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 10, October 2026.
Patient‐specific Computational Fluid Dynamics was employed to analyze the impact of four distinct mitral valve geometries, varying in area and jet direction, on left‐ventricular flow and overall heart efficiency. The valve design influenced intraventricular vortices, turbulent kinetic energy, and dissipation.

Hormone therapy (HT) in women with premature ovarian insufficiency or early menopause: Time to think of a new paradigm for healthy aging. A joint FIGO and IMS position paper

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 175, Issue 1, Page 26-47, October 2026.
Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early menopause (EM) affect millions of women worldwide. Compared with normal menopause, they confer a longer duration of estrogen deficiency and are associated not only with a shorter lifespan, but with a reduced healthspan, owing to an increased risk of cardiovascular, skeletal, cognitive and ...

Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, Volume 54, Issue 8, Page 1867-1875, October 2026.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Permanent Cardiac Pacing in Children: A 30‐Year Follow‐Up Retrospective Study in a Single Pediatric Asian Center

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 5, October 2026.
This 30‐year retrospective study of pediatric permanent pacing found acceptable long‐term device complication rates, with epicardial leads used predominantly. Pacing‐induced cardiomyopathy occurred only in children with congenital heart disease, highlighting the need for individualized pacing strategies in this cohort and long‐term echocardiographic ...
