More troponin values were measured at the cardiac center: 2327- 267 ng/L 0821- 355 ng/L 1108- 305 ng/L An echocardiogram on day three of the patients admission showed an ejection fraction of 46% with abnormal basal inferior and basal lateral segments, and severe aortic stenosis. What "initiates" the aortic stenosis cascade?
