Long-term Follow up after Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in Lower Risk Patients Using the Balloon-Expandable Bioprosthesis: Gender-Dependent Outcomes
CONCLUSION: Although considerably more prone to procedural complications, women had a significantly long-term survival benefit after TF-TAVI in lower-risk patients despite similar baseline characteristics.PMID:35486061 | DOI:10.1532/hsf.4451

Dual versus triple antithrombotic therapy after percutaneous coronary intervention: the prospective multicentre WOEST 2 Study
CONCLUSIONS: Dual antithrombotic therapy is associated with a substantially lower risk of clinically relevant bleeding without a statistically significant penalty in ischaemic events.PMID:35370126 | DOI:10.4244/EIJ-D-21-00703

Impact of left ventricle outflow tract calcification on the outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve implantation: A study ‐level meta‐analysis
ConclusionThe presence of significant LVOT calcification increases the risk of periprocedural and 1-year mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, PVL and aortic annulus/root rupture after TAVI. Self-expandable valves may be a preferrable option in this scenario. Structural heart surgeons and interventional cardiologists should consider this factor when referring patients for TAVI and technical aspects (such as the type of transcatheter heart valve to be deployed or the use of pre-/post-dilatation) should be factored in.

Atrial Fibrillation after Rheumatic Heart Valve Surgery: Incidence, Predictors, and Outcomes
CONCLUSION: This study identifies risk factors associated with the development of atrial fibrillation after rheumatic valve heart surgery. Older patients, male gender, type of surgery, preoperative AF, BMI, EF before surgery, and LA diameter are independent predictors of AF after cardiac valve surgery.PMID:35108734 | DOI:10.1055/s-0041-1740985

Impact of left ventricular outflow tract calcification in patients undergoing transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation
CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing TAVI, the presence of significant LVOT calcification is common and associated with worse short-term clinical and functional outcomes as well as higher one-year mortality rates compared to patients w/o LVOT calcification.PMID:34658340 | DOI:10.4244/EIJ-D-21-00464

Beating vs Arrested Heart Isolated Tricuspid Valve Surgery: Long-term Outcomes
CONCLUSIONS: Isolated tricuspid valve surgery performed with a beating heart strategy is a safe option and resulted in a trend of increased long-term survival and freedom from reoperation when compared with the standard arrested heart technique. Patients undergoing beating heart valve repair had the best long-term outcome.PMID:33831392 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.03.070
