Design Improvement of Transcatheter Aortic Valves for Aortic Stenosis Patients [PDF]
Aortic valve disease is a common condition in patients above 60 years of age and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Aortic valve stenosis is characterized by the narrowing of the aortic valve, which can be quite debilitating.

Abbreviations: TAVI, transcatheter aortic valve implantation; ATTR‐CM, transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis. We aimed to diagnose occult ATTR‐CM in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing TAVI using bone scintigraphy. We verified a diagnosis of ATTR‐CM in 8 of 171 (4.7 %) consecutive aortic stenosis patients who underwent TAVI.

Dapagliflozin effect on functional mitral regurgitation and myocardial remodelling: The DEFORM trial
Abstract Aims Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is associated with adverse outcomes in patients with heart failure, and current guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) offers limited efficacy in managing FMR. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic impact of the sodium‐glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) dapagliflozin in patients with ...

Experimental investigation of the flow downstream of a dysfunctional bileaflet mechanical aortic valve [PDF]
Mechanical heart valve replacement is the preferred alternative in younger patients with severe symptomatic aortic valve disease. However, thrombus and pannus formations are common complications associated with bileaflet mechanical heart valves. This leads to risks of valve leaflet dysfunction, a life threatening event.

Mitral regurgitation in patients with severe aortic stenosis: Diagnosis and management [PDF]
Severe aortic stenosis (AS) and mitral regurgitation (MR) frequently coexist. Although some observational studies have reported that moderate or severe MR is associated with higher mortality, the optimal management of such patients is still unclear ...

Abstract Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has been shown to be an effective treatment option for patients experiencing cardiogenic shock (CS) with concomitant high‐grade mitral valve regurgitation. However, haemodynamic changes following M‐TEER have not been thoroughly investigated. Afterload mismatch, leading to the deterioration of

Abstract Veno‐arterial extracorporeal life support (VA ECLS) is crucial for neonatal and paediatric patients with severe circulatory collapse but may cause left ventricular (LV) overload, affecting myocardial recovery and causing complications. Evidence on optimal LV decompression strategies in paediatric patients remains limited.
