Concomitant Tricuspid Annuloplasty During Degenerative Mitral Valve Repair: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Aug 8, 2026 by in CARDIOLOGY Comments Off on Concomitant Tricuspid Annuloplasty During Degenerative Mitral Valve Repair: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is common among patients undergoing surgery for degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) and is associated with adverse outcomes. The role of concomitant tricuspid annuloplasty (TA) during mitral valve…

Evaluating the Accessibility of Transcatheter and Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement Across the US Via Driving-Times

Aug 8, 2026 by in CARDIOLOGY Comments Off on Evaluating the Accessibility of Transcatheter and Surgical Aortic Valve Replacement Across the US Via Driving-Times
While transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a rapidly expanding minimally invasive alternative to surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), its access might be limited due to proximity to a TAVR…

Dynamic Changes in Right Ventricular-Pulmonary Arterial Coupling During Acute Heart Failure Hospitalization: Prognostic Implications

Aug 8, 2026 by in CARDIOLOGY Comments Off on Dynamic Changes in Right Ventricular-Pulmonary Arterial Coupling During Acute Heart Failure Hospitalization: Prognostic Implications
Right ventricular (RV)- pulmonary arterial (PA) uncoupling is an important predictor of outcomes in heart failure (HF), yet it may change substantially during hospitalization for acute HF. This study sought…

Comparative Performance of Machine Learning and Traditional Risk Scores in Predicting Adverse Events After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

Aug 8, 2026 by in CARDIOLOGY Comments Off on Comparative Performance of Machine Learning and Traditional Risk Scores in Predicting Adverse Events After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Highlights • ML models and risk scores showed similarly modest prediction of stroke and bleeding. • ML models highlighted TAVR procedure-related predictors absent from risk scores. • Larger external datasets…
