Transapical aortic valve replacement in extreme-risk patients: outcome, risk factors and mid-term results ADULT CARDIAC
CONCLUSIONS TA-TAVR in extreme-risk patients carries a moderate risk of hospital mortality. Severe comorbidities and presence of residual paravalvular leakages affect the mid-term survival, whereas surviving patients have an acceptable quality of life without rehospitalizations for cardiac decompensation.

316 * ministernotomy versus conventional sternotomy for aortic valve replacement: propensity score analysis of 808 patients
Conclusions: Aortic valve replacement can be safely conducted through a partial ministernotomy. This approach is not associated with an increased rate of complications. Prospective studies with special emphasis on endpoints such as postoperative pain, duration of postoperative recovery, and quality of life during follow-up, are needed to further clarify the role of ministernotomy for aortic valve replacement.

Mechanical versus bioprosthetic valves in chronic dialysis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Mechanical valves were associated with reduced mortality, but increased rate of bleeding and stroke. Given very low certainty for evidence of mortality and stroke outcomes, patients and clinicians may choose prosthetic valves based on factors such as bleeding risk and valve longevity.STUDY REGISTRATION: PROSPERO no.
