Diagnostic performance of pressure-bounded coronary flow reserve
Fluid dynamics studies have proposed that coronary flow reserve can be calculated from coronary artery pressure instead of coronary blood flow. We sought to investigate the diagnostic performance of pressure-b...

Correlation between driveline features and driveline infection in left ventricular assist device selection
Although the survival rate for left ventricular assist device (LVAD) therapy has improved, device-related complications are an unpredictable threat to the patient’s quality of life. We focused on driveline inf...

Brachial artery diameter has a predictive value in the improvement of flow-mediated dilation after aortic valve replacement for aortic stenosis
Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular disease and aortic valve replacement (AVR) is one of its most effective interventions. AS affects not only the left ventricle, but also vascular function beyond...
