TAVI Matches SAVR in Lower Risk Aortic Valve Patients: 10 year outcomes

Cardiology Update

Patients were evaluated based on a composite outcome of all-cause mortality, stroke, or myocardial infarction. Bioprosthetic valve dysfunction (BVD) was categorized into structural valve deterioration (SVD), non-structural valve dysfunction (NSVD), clinical valve thrombosis, or endocarditis.

Commentary on Anti-thrombotic effect of protoparaxotriol saponins from Panax notoginseng using zebrafish model

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology

Thrombosis continues to pose a significant challenge in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, contributing to severe health complications such as myocardial infarction, acute ischemic stroke, and venous thromboembolism. In this paper, we comment the findings reported by Liu et al.

Apixaban versus vitamin K antagonists in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome: a cohort study

Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology

Current guidelines recommend that direct anticoagulants should not be used in prevention of recurrent thrombosis in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). During a median follow-up of 53 months, we recorded venous thromboembolism (VTE), ischemic stroke or myocardial infarction, along with major bleeding.
