Prognostic role of TAPSE to PASP ratio in outpatients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction
Abstract Aims Few data are available regarding the role of tricuspid annulus plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP), a measurement of right ventricular to pulmonary artery coupling, in patients with chronic heart failure and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Comparison of short- and long-term outcomes between isolated and concomitant tricuspid valve surgery
Background Accurate reflections of long-term outcomes of isolated tricuspid valve surgery are underreported in the literature. Most published cohort studies consisted of patients receiving tricuspid valve surgery concomitant with left-sided procedures ...

Isolated surgical tricuspid repair versus replacement: meta-analysis of 15 069 patients
ObjectivesTricuspid valve disease is increasingly encountered, but surgery is rarely performed in isolation, in part because of a reported higher operative risk than other single-valve operations.

Non-linear finite element analyses of the aortic heart valve
Includes bibliographical references.Finite element models of the aortic heart valve have been successfully used in the past to gain insight into the mechanics of the valve and to aid in understanding of valve failure.

Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Reoperations after tricuspid valve repair
ObjectiveThe objective was to analyze the short- and long-term results of patients with previous tricuspid valve repair who had valve dysfunction and required cardiac reoperations.MethodsBetween 1976 and 2002, 74 patients with a mean age of 53.8 ± 12.2 ...

Abstract Objectives Improving and maintaining high detection rates for major congenital heart disease (CHD) is a priority for successful prenatal anatomy screening programmes. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of on‐site multidimensional targeted training in fetal cardiac screening. Methods A prospective study evaluating a
