This study aimed to describe the features and identify predictors of ascending aorta dilatation in patients with congenital bicuspid aortic valve (BAV).In 280 adult isolated BAV undergoing echocardiography, multivariate logistic regression models, including clinical echocardiographic variables, were developed predict (aortic ratio exceeding 1.1) at both root level. Factors predicting aneurysm surgical indication also investigated. Classification tree models used factors influencing...
This International Consensus Classification and Nomenclature for the congenital bicuspid aortic valve condition recognizes 3 types of valves: 1. The fused type (right-left cusp fusion, right-non-coronary fusion left-non-coronary phenotypes); 2. 2-sinus (latero-lateral antero-posterior 3. partial-fusion (forme fruste) type. presence raphe symmetry phenotypes are critical aspects to describe. also valve-associated aortopathy: ascending phenotype; root Extended phenotypes.
A clinical guideline aims to apply all patients with a specific condition.However, there will inevitably be situations where its recommendations aren't suitable for particular patient.While healthcare professionals and others are encouraged consider these guidelines in their professional judgement, they don't override the responsibility of make decisions tailored each patient's unique circumstances.Such should aligned latest official recommendations, from relevant public health authorities,...
Clinical evidence in coronary surgery is usually derived from retrospective, single institutional series. This may introduce significant biases the analysis of critical issues treatment these patients. In order to avoid such methodological limitations, we planned a European multicenter, prospective study on artery bypass grafting, E-CABG registry. The registry multicenter and its data are prospectively collected 13 centers cardiac university community hospitals located six countries...
Stably suppressed viremia during ART is essential for establishing reliable simian models HIV/AIDS. We tested the efficacy of a multidrug (highly intensified ART) in wide range viremic conditions (103–107 viral RNA copies/mL) SIVmac251-infected rhesus macaques, and its impact on reservoir. Eleven macaques pre-AIDS stage disease were treated with combination consisting two nucleosidic/nucleotidic reverse transcriptase inhibitors (emtricitabine tenofovir), an integrase inhibitor (raltegravir),...
The need for a specific risk score system infective endocarditis (IE) surgery has been previously claimed. In single-center pilot study, preliminary to future multicentric development and validation, bivariate multivariate (logistic regression) analysis of early postoperative mortality predictors in 440 native valve IE patients were performed. Mathematical procedures assigned scores the independent emerged (AUC ROC curve: 0.88). Overall was 9.1%. Six identified scores, including age (5-13...
