e' increased rapidly after TAVI. The increase in E velocity was independently associated with the increase in e′ even after adjustment for stroke volume, suggesting that early e′ enhancement reflects both improved myocardial relaxation and load‐related mechanisms. ABSTRACT Purpose Early improvements in left ventricular (LV) diastolic function have been

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity

Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,
