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).

Identification of major congenital malformations based on healthcare databases in France: A proof‐of‐concept study using the epi‐meres nationwide mother–child register

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Besides registries, healthcare databases can provide useful information for assessing the frequency of major congenital malformations (MCMs) and investigating their risk factors, particularly medication exposures. This study aimed to assess the validity of MCMs identification based on French national, comprehensive healthcare databases ...

Single Centre Experience With the Balloon‐Expandable Myval Transcatheter Aortic Valve System in Patients With Bicuspid Anatomy: 1 Year Follow‐Up

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) anatomy remains challenging due to anatomical complexity and limited trial data. New‐generation balloon‐expandable valves, such as Myval, require further evaluation in this subgroup.

Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy: Literature review and red‐flag symptom clusters for each cardiology specialty

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 955-967, April 2025.
Abstract Wild‐type transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTRwt‐CM) is a progressive and infiltrative cardiac disorder that may cause fatal consequences if left untreated. The estimated survival time from diagnosis is approximately 3–6 years. Because of the non‐specificity of initial symptom manifestation and insufficient awareness among treating ...
