Non-invasive cardiovascular magnetic resonance assessment of pressure recovery distance after aortic valve stenosis
BackgroundDecisions in the management of aortic stenosis are based on the peak pressure drop, captured by Doppler echocardiography, whereas gold...

Individual versus integration of multiple components of central blood pressure and aortic stiffness in predicting cardiovascular mortality in end-stage renal diseases
Aortic stiffness, measured by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), is a predictor of cardiovascular (CV) mortality in patients with end-stage...

Short-Term Variability of Both Brachial and Aortic Blood Pressure is Increased in Patients with Immune-mediated Chronic Inflammation
IntroductionBlood pressure (BP) variability (BPV) has emerged as an indicator of subclinical organ damage and an independent predictor of...

Orthostatic blood pressure adaptations, aortic stiffness, and central hemodynamics in the general population: insights from the Malmö Offspring Study (MOS)
PurposeArterial stiffness is independently associated with orthostatic hypotension in older individuals. The relationship between orthostatic blood...

Viewpoint: The Case for Non-Invasive Central Aortic Pressure Monitoring in the Management of Hypertension
Elevated central aortic pressure indices (e.g., systolic pressure and pulse pressure) predict cardiovascular (CV) events and mortality in addition to...

Total aortic arch debranching with antegrade Thoracic Endovascular Aortic Repair (TEVAR) in acute non-A non-B aortic dissection
BackgroundThe surgical evaluation and management of non-A non-B aortic dissections, in the absence of ascending aortic involvement, remains a grey...
-
Computational fluid dynamics-based prediction of aortic aneurysm rupture in a patient with chronic aortic dissection
BackgroundThe indication of additional aortic arch surgery for residual aortic dissection remains controversial as some patients experience aneurysm...
