ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis, but there is limited comparative data on balloon‐expandable (BEV) versus self‐expanding valves (SEV) in this population. Aim To compare clinical and hemodynamic outcomes between BEVs and SEVs in patients with BAV

ABSTRACT Background For over a decade, transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacements (TF‐TAVR) have been performed at the University Hospital of Nancy. A minimalistic approach to TF‐TAVR, conducted without general anesthesia and entirely percutaneously in a catheterization suite (simplified approach), has been reported to be as safe and ...

The Effect of ACE Inhibition on the Pulmonary Vasculature in Combined Models of Chronic Hypoxia and Pulmonary Arterial Banding in Sprague Dawley Rats [PDF]
Microfocal CT was used to image the pulmonary arterial (PA) tree in rodent models of pulmonary hypertension (PH). CT images were used to measure the arterial tree diameter along the main arterial trunk at several hydrostatic intravascular pressures and ...

ABSTRACT Background Optimal projection views during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) procedures are critical for procedural success and patient outcomes. Aims This study investigated the influence of 3‐cusp view orientation—line of alignment (LOA) versus non‐LOA—on procedural outcomes in patients undergoing TAVI with contemporary ...

ABSTRACT Background Despite achieving complete revascularization, patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) may experience adverse outcomes, potentially attributable to coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). Coronary flow reserve (CFR), which integrates both epicardial and microvascular coronary function, and a reduced CFR following complete ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension outcomes upon endothelin-1 receptor antagonist switch to macitentan [PDF]
Objectives: To assess whether switching patients with suboptimally controlled pulmonary arterial hypertension from bosentan or ambrisentan to macitentan would improve six-minute walk test (6MWT) distance and World Health Organization functional class ...

ABSTRACT Background Mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) remains high despite advanced treatment strategies in CS patients, underlining the need for the identification of predictors of prognosis in CS patients. Therefore, the present study investigates the prognostic impact of coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO) in patients with CS ...

ABSTRACT Background Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is a hereditary myocardial disease. Percutaneous endocardial septal radiofrequency ablation (PESA) is an innovative approach for treating HOCM. Consequently, we present the outcomes of the PESA for HOCM. Methods This study included 20 patients with HOCM who received PESA.
