Physiological and clinical consequences of relief of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction late after repair of congenital heart defects. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (RVOTO) is a common problem after repair of congenital heart disease. Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) can treat this condition without consequent pulmonary regurgitation or ...

Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor for Functional Mitral Regurgitation: PRIME Study

open access: yesCirculation, 2019
Background: The morbidity and mortality of patients with functional mitral regurgitation (MR) remain high, but no pharmacological therapy has been proven effective. The hypothesis of this study was that sacubitril/valsartan would be superior to valsartan

Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation in humans - Results in 59 consecutive patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Background - Right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction with valved conduits in infancy and childhood leads to reintervention for pulmonary regurgitation and stenosis in later life.Methods and Results - Patients with pulmonary regurgitation ...

Tricuspid regurgitation and the right ventricle in risk stratification and timing of intervention

open access: yesEcho Research and Practice, 2019
Tricuspid regurgitation natural history and treatment remains poorly understood. Right ventricular function is a key factor in determining prognosis, timing for intervention and longer-term outcome.

Role of cardiac resynchronization therapy in the development of new-onset atrial fibrillation: A single-center prospective study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Albeit several studies examined the association between cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) and atrial fibrillation (AF) in heart failure (HF), results are still unclear and quite conflicting.

Percutaneous edge-to-edge tricuspid valve repair in congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries

open access: yesREC: Interventional Cardiology (English Ed.), 2022
To the Editor, The congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries is a rare congenital defect characterized by atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance.

Intramachine and intermachine variability in transesophageal color doppler images of pulsatile jets: in vitro studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Background: Color Doppler flow mapping is widely used as a marker of severity of valvular regurgitation, and the transesophageal approach has provided high-quality images in patients with poor acoustic windows.

Effect of Bileaflet Valve Orientation on the 3D Flow Dynamics in the Sinus of Valsalva

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2011
Three-dimensional (3D) evolutional behavior of flow dynamics in the aortic sinus of Valsalva was studied in vitro for finding the effects of bileaflet valve orientations in an effort to investigate possible linkages between the sinus flow and coronary ...

Risk Factors for Mortality and Circulatory Outcome Among Neonates Prenatally Diagnosed With Ebstein Anomaly or Tricuspid Valve Dysplasia: A Multicenter Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background In a recent multicenter study of perinatal outcome in fetuses with Ebstein anomaly or tricuspid valve dysplasia, we found that one third of live‐born patients died before hospital discharge.

Circulating Progenitor and Apoptotic Progenitor Cells in Patients With Aortic Regurgitation

open access: yesCirculation Journal, 2013
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have a role in the repair of endothelial surfaces after injury. Reduced numbers of EPCs are related to endothelial dysfunction and adverse clinical events, suggesting that endothelial injury in the absence of sufficient repair by circulating EPCs promotes the progression of vascular disease or valvular disorder.
