Current status and etiology of valvular heart disease in China: a population-based survey
Background The epidemiology of valvular heart disease (VHD) has changed markedly over the last 50 years worldwide, and the prevalence and features of VHD in China are unknown. The objective of this study was to investigate the current status and etiology

Fluid dynamics of heart valves during atrial fibrillation: a lumped parameter-based approach [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) consequences on the heart valve dynamics are usually studied along with a valvular disfunction or disease, since in medical monitoring the two pathologies are often concomitant. Aim of the present work is to study, through a stochastic lumped-parameter approach, the basic fluid dynamics variations of heart valves, when only ...

Background Success rate of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in aortic regurgitation (AR) patients is relatively low on account of the absence of calcified anchoring structures.

Predicting adverse outcomes following catheter ablation treatment for atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Objective: To develop prognostic survival models for predicting adverse outcomes after catheter ablation treatment for non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods: We used a linked dataset including hospital administrative data, prescription medicine claims, emergency department presentations, and death registrations of patients in New South Wales,

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is one of the most frequent causes of death in adult patients with congenital heart disease (ACHD). Despite the rare frequency of its occurrence, the incident appears often when unexpected, and many affected patients had not ...

Successful Triple Valve Surgery in an Undernourished Patient: What to Prepare?
Valvular heart disease accountsfor 10% to 20% of all cardiac surgical procedures in the United States. The decision to intervene, as well as the type of intervention for a patient with severe valvular heart disease, should be based on an individual risk ...

Introduction: Left heart failure (LHF) is commonly complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH), increasing morbidity and mortality. The present study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of inflammatory proteins in LHF with PH (LHF-PH).

Non-invasive hemodynamic analysis for aortic regurgitation using computational fluid dynamics and deep learning [PDF]
Changes in cardiovascular hemodynamics are closely related to the development of aortic regurgitation, a type of valvular heart disease. Metrics derived from blood flows are used to indicate aortic regurgitation onset and evaluate its severity. These metrics can be non-invasively obtained using four-dimensional (4D) flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

Health shock, medical insurance and financial asset allocation: evidence from CHFS in China
Background As health care cost is taking an increasingly substantial proportion of national wealth, health shocks and the subsequent medical expenditures have become increasingly vital contributions to financial risks. However, the individual or combined
