Hemodynamics and Prognostic Impact of Concomitant Mitral Stenosis in Patients Undergoing Surgical or Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement for Aortic Stenosis [PDF]

Circulation, 2019
BACKGROUND Mitral stenosis frequently coexists in patients with severe aortic stenosis. Mitral stenosis severity evaluation is challenging in the setting of combined aortic stenosis and mitral stenosis because of hemodynamic interactions between the 2 ...

Posterior to Anterior Mitral Valve Leaflets Length Ratio as a Simple Parameter in Assessing the Severity of Mitral Stenosis

Majalah Kardiologi Indonesia, 2017
Background: Determining the severity of mitral stenosis is important for both prognostic and therapeutic reasons. TTE is the gold standard method for assessment of severity mitral stenosis by using planimetry and pressure half time (PHT).

Mitral Valve Repair for Congenital Mitral Valve Stenosis in the Pediatric Population

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2010
Mitral valve repair is the preferred approach for congenital mitral valve stenosis in children. However, repairs in this population remain challenging.From 2001 to 2009, mitral valve repair was attempted in 20 consecutive congenital mitral valve stenosis patients.

The molecular genetics of RASopathies: An update on novel disease genes and new disorders

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, Volume 190, Issue 4, Page 425-439, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Enhanced signaling through RAS and the mitogen‐associated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade underlies the RASopathies, a family of clinically related disorders affecting development and growth. In RASopathies, increased RAS‐MAPK signaling can result from the upregulated activity of various RAS GTPases, enhanced function of proteins positively ...

Clinical overview on RASopathies

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, Volume 190, Issue 4, Page 414-424, December 2022., 2022
Abstract RASopathies comprise a group of clinically overlapping developmental disorders caused by genetic variations affecting components or modulators of the RAS‐MAPK signaling cascade, which lead to dysregulation of signal flow through this pathway.
