Presence Of A Congenitally Bicuspid Aortic Valve Among Patients Having Combined Mitral And Aortic Valve Replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Although bicuspid aortic valve occurs in an estimated 1% of adults and mitral valve prolapse in an estimated 5% of adults, occurrence of the 2 in the same patient is infrequent.

Trends in Isolated Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2019
We read with interest the paper by Kundi et al. [(1)][1] that assessed trends in transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) volume, and the effect of TAVR volume on SAVR mortality.

Amyloid β Instigates Cardiac Neurotrophic Signaling Impairment, Driving Alzheimer's Associated Heart Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This research identified cardiac amyloid pathology, neurotrophic factor depletion, and reduced myocardial nerve function in a transgenic model of cerebral amyloidosis (Tg2576), Aβ‐challenged cardiomyocytes, and in human AD heart tissue. These findings carry significant diagnostic and therapeutic implications, emphasizing the role of neuro‐signaling ...

Patient-specific image-based computer simulation for theprediction of valve morphology and calcium displacement after TAVI with the Medtronic CoreValve and the Edwards SAPIEN valve [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AIMS: Our aim was to validate patient-specific software integrating baseline anatomy and biomechanical properties of both the aortic root and valve for the prediction of valve morphology and aortic leaflet calcium displacement after TAVI.

A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation with SAPIEN 3 versus surgical aortic valve replacement in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis at low risk of surgical mortality: a cost-utility analysis for Switzerland

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly
AIMS OF THE STUDY: The 2021 European Society of Cardiology Guidelines on valvular heart disease recommend transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis at low surgical risk and age ≥75 years who are ...

F‐Box and Leucine‐Rich Repeat Protein 4 (FBXL4) Maintains Sarcomere Integrity and Cardiac Function by Enhancing K48‐Linked Ubiquitinated Degradation of Profilin‐1 (PFN1)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram depicting the proposed signaling mechanisms underlying the effects of FBXL4 in the setting of cardiac hypertrophy. Under hypertrophic stimulation, cardiomyocytes‐specific overexpression FBXL4 maintains sarcomere integrity and cardiac function by enhancing K48‐linked ubiquitinated degradation of PFN1 at the K70 site.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Durability: Focus on Structural Valve Deterioration

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement has emerged as a valuable alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement in patients with severe aortic stenosis. Given the expansion of transcatheter aortic valve replacement to lower‐risk and younger populations
