Abstract:
Aortic stenosis is the commonest valve disorder in the Western World. The natural history of the disease is very well described; with a decreased survival once symptoms occur. There is currently, no medical therapy available to reduce the natural progression of the aortic stenosis, and therefore, aortic valve replacement has been recognised as the standard of care treatment for symptomatic aortic stenosis, with TAVI having merged as alternative for those cases with high/prohibitive surgical risk. All types of aortic stenosis have in common a reduced valve area (AVA <1.0cm2), but depending o

Abstract:
Abstract Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is one of the most diffuse valvular diseases in developed countries. AS is a progressive disease, which usually results in serious life-threatening adverse events. Defining a treatment strategy for AS is a focus of cardiovascular research, although the topic is still controversial because of its related clinical and economical implications. Surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR),which is regarded as the gold standard for the treatment of severe symptomatic AS, affords excellent results, particularly in asymptomatic patients with good functional status.

Abstract:
Abstract Calcified aortic valve disease represents a spectrum of disease spanning from mild aortic valve sclerosis to severe aortic valve stenosis (AS), being an actively regulated disease process and showing some hallmarks of atherosclerosis. The calcified aortic valve lesion develops endothelial injury and is characterized by inflammation, lipid accumulation, renin-angiotensin system activation and fibrosis. There is no approved pharmacological treatment available in AS. This study was aimed to characterize gene expression of endothelial factors in aortic valves in patients representing

Abstract:
Calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS) is the most common form of heart valve disease and affects about 3% of the population. Its prevalence increases with age, without a causal relation between ageing and CAVS development. To date, CAVS is a slow, progressive, multifactorial disorder considered to be actively driven by several cellular and molecular processes. Its natural history consists of a long clinically silent phase of non-uniform leaflet thickening with or without minimal calcification, known as aortic valve sclerosis (AVSc), without significant obstruction of blood flow, followed by th

BACKGROUND Aortic stenosis is a common and potentially fatal condition in which fibro-calcific changes within the valve leaflets lead to the obstruction of blood flow. Severe symptomatic stenosis is an indication for aortic valve replacement and timely referral is essential to prevent adverse clinical events. Calcification is believed to represent the central process driving disease progression. 18F-Fluoride positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET-CT) and CT aortic valve calcium scoring (CT-AVC) quantify calcification activity and burden respectively.

Symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS) is an increasing phenomenon as more adults live longer. The gold standard for treating AS is surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR). Frequently, as older individuals with AS often have multiple comorbidities, a SAVR is determined to be too high risk. Therefore, a less invasive treatment option is available, namely a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Such biomedical procedures have encouraged life extension and the decision to intervene commonplace with the aging population. Without an intervention

Abstract Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is the most common valvular heart disease in the Western world. Although it shares mainly the same risk factors as coronary heart disease (CHD), i.e. similar initial events in both diseases but with time, they lead to different clinical outcomes. Thus, when it affects the coronary arteries, the disease leads to an obstructive or rupture-prone plaque whereas in the aortic valve, it causes massive calcification and ossification.

Abstract:
Background: The etiology of congenital heart valve defects is not well understood; little is known about the risk factors that contribute to the survival and mortality outcomes of children with these defects. Methods: Using data from the Texas Birth Defects Registry (TBDR) we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 2070 singleton infants with congenital aortic, pulmonary, or tricuspid valve atresia or stenosis born in Texas between January 1, 1996 and December 31, 2007 to Hispanic, Non-Hispanic (NH) black, and NH white women. TBDR data were death-to-birth matched by the Texas Vital Statistic

Abstract:
This diploma work is focused on using economic analysis methods to compare cost-effectivness of an innovative technology for treating aortic stenosis that is transcatheter implantation of an artificial valve CoreValve by Medtronic with traditional treatments. During the analyses we utilized only publicly available data which are often too general while more specific data might not be available because they do not exist or are not publicly available. This work sets up a theoretical foundation for the analyses, performs the analyse sof the product, PEST analyses and cost analyses. Since pacient'

Abstract:
Abstract Heart failure (HF) and aortic valve stenosis (AS) are complex disorders affected by functional alterations and actively regulated remodelling of the heart and the aortic valve, respectively. In addition to structural proteins, such as collagens and elastin, the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the heart and the aortic valve comprises non-collagenous factors that are not strictly involved in the architecture but may modulate cardiac and valvular remodelling. In the present study the expression of non-collagenous fibrosis- and calcification-related ECM proteins was investigated in HF-assoc
