Background: Sizing for transcatheter aortic valve implantation in bicuspid valves (BAV) remains controversial. Methods and Results: The aim of the BAVARD (Bicuspid Aortic Valve Anatomy Relationship With Devices) retrospective registry is to capture sizing ratios used BAV analyze second-generation prostheses geometry postimplantation. About 101 patients with along available pre- post-transcatheter multidetector computed tomography were compared 88 tricuspid (TAV) patients. Preprocedural...
Large data comparing the performance of new-generation self-expandable versus balloon-expandable transcatheter heart valves in bicuspid aortic stenosis are lacking. We aim to compare safety and treatment stenosis.The BEAT (balloon valve for stenosis) registry included 353 consecutive patients who underwent implantation using Evolut R/PRO or Sapien 3 valve.A total (n=242 [68.6%] treated with n=111 R (n=70)/PRO [n=41]) were included. Mean age was 77.8±8.3 years mean Society Thoracic Surgeons...
Prospective data about transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in bicuspid (BAV) patients are limited.
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in patients with bicuspid (BAV) stenosis is technically challenging and burdened by an increased risk of paravalvular regurgitation (PVR).
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are present in the systemic circulation and home to sites of ischemic injury where they promote neoangiogenesis. β2-Adrenergic receptor (β2AR) plays a critical role vascular tone regulation neoangiogenesis.We aimed evaluate β2AR on EPCs' function.We firstly performed vitro analysis showing expression EPCs. Stimulation wild-type EPCs with β-agonist isoproterenol induced significant increase Flk-1 as assessed by fluorescence-activated cell sorter. Moreover,...
Breathlessness is a common and distressing symptom affecting many patients with advanced disease both from malignant non-malignant origin. A combination of pharmacological non-pharmacological measures necessary to treat this successfully. services in various compositions aim provide comprehensive care for their carers by multiprofessional team but effectiveness cost-effectiveness have not yet been proven. The Support Service (BSS) newly created interdisciplinary outpatient service at large...
Charles T. Dotter is a recognized pioneer of interventional cardiology as much the inventor angioplasty balloon himself, Andreas R. Grüntzig. Yet, despite Dotter's pioneering role in developing transluminal angioplasty, recent survey revealed significant lack awareness among younger cardiologists and fellows about his contributions, contrasting sharply with their familiarity We thereby shed light on innovations reasons behind relative obscurity contemporary discourse, urging medical...
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) health care providers report a desire to improve long-term outcomes and quality of life for their patients. One the items frequently cited by patients in terms transitioning from being patient back pre-HCT is return work (RTW). However, these little support facilitating this process, only 50% 60% achieve RTW, at median 3 years post-HCT. Barriers are physical, psychological, logistical, as well poor communication between employer. We convened group...
Background The UK has an informed choice testing policy for prostate cancer. prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test is available free to any man aged ≥50 years who requests it and been of the harms benefits. This leads differences in PSA rates, which can exacerbate health inequalities. Aim To assess whether Prostate Cancer UK’s risk checker helps men at cancer make about test. Design & setting Mixed-methods study UK. Method In total, 1181 risk, their partners, clinical experts...
