Little is known about ethnic and gender disparities for transcatheter aortic
valve replacement (TAVR) procedures in the United States. We queried the
Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) database (2011–2014) to identify patients who
underwent TAVR. We described the temporal trends in the uptake of TAVR
procedures among various ethnicities and genders. Our analysis identified 39,253
records; 20,497 (5... hiện toàn bộ

Troponin elevation is an independent risk factor for mortality, but the
prognosis of patients with troponin elevation and non-obstructive coronary
artery disease (CAD) is unknown. Recent data have suggested an increased risk of
mortality. This study was performed to further investigate the outcomes of
troponin-positive patients with obstructive and non-obstructive CAD. A
retrospective cohort analy... hiện toàn bộ

Severe aortic stenosis patients with bicuspid anatomy have been excluded from
the major transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVI) randomized clinical
trials. As a result, there is no official recommendation on bicuspid TAVI. A
panel of bicuspid experts was created to fill this gap. In this consensus
statement, an algorithm is proposed to guide the choice of surgery or TAVI

Inadequate stent implantation is associated with stent thrombosis and
restenosis. StentBoost can enhance stent visualization and evaluate stent
expansion. Currently, there are limited comparison studies between StentBoost
and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). We aimed to test the correlation and
agreement between IVUS and StentBoost measurements. From December 2010 to
December 2011, 38 patients (54... hiện toàn bộ
