Biological versus Mechanical Prostheses for Aortic Valve Replacement.
The objective was to compare long-term survival and major adverse cardiac and cardiovascular events (i.e. stroke, reoperation, and major bleeding) within this population.

Commentary: The case for a comprehensive clinical, basic, and translational research strategy to understand, prevent, detect, and treat cerebrovascular injury in Fontan patients
In this issue of the Journal, the Australian and New-Zealand Fontan Registry Research group compares long-term rates of cerebrovascular injury, thrombosis, bleeding, bone mineral density, and quality of life in Fontan patients receiving warfarin and those receiving aspirin.1 Their take-home messages are (1) asymptomatic cerebrovascular injury is a frequent occurrence in Fontan patients, including stroke (39%), microhemorrhage (96%), and white matter injury (86%); (2) warfarin does not seem to protect against the risk of cerebrovascular injury when compared with aspirin; and (3) warfarin is associated with a greater risk of...

Commentary: Direct oral anticoagulants in heart surgery: A  question in need of an answer
The Invited Expert Opinion by Drs Kapadia and Svensson1 is focused on an important clinical challenge of whether direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) can be used in patients with bioprosthetic valves who have atrial fibrillation (AF). Recommendations for anticoagulation therapy should focus on potential risks of early postoperative bleeding with DOAC treatment and not only on its long-term superiority over vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) for stroke prevention in patients with AF, with or without a bioprosthetic valve.
