Objectives Non-contrast CT aortic valve calcium scoring ignores the contribution of valvular fibrosis in aortic stenosis. We assessed aortic valve calcific and non-calcific disease using ...

New 20-year data show a survival rate of 90% with few repeat surgeries after this complex operation that can only be ...

In patients greater than age 65, more than 90% of aortic stenosis involves trileaflet valves which have developed heavy calcification. [5] In these instances the calcium deposits are thought to ...

The coexistence of transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR‐CA) and aortic stenosis (AS) is increasingly recognized, but the clinical consequences are unclear. We aimed to characterize clinical ...

To understand the role of cardiac CT aortic valve calcium (CT-AVC) in defining stenosis severity in patients with aortic stenosis and discordant echocardiographic measures. To understand the ...

Background Cardiogenic shock (CS) induced by severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a life-threatening condition with high mortality. Despite advancements in emergency interventions, the optimal treatment ...

All compounds are either investigational or being studied for (a) new use(s). Efficacy and safety have not been established. There is no guarantee that they will become commercially available for the ...

Underweight pregnancy is associated with decreased risks for some pregnancy complications such as post-partum hemorrhage but significantly increased risks for adverse neonatal outcomes, according to ...

Recovery from spinal stenosis surgery can vary based on what type of procedure was performed and the number of vertebrae operated on. Activity restrictions will be put in place during the initial ...
