Quadricuspid aortic valve (QAV) is rare. However, to repair a quadricuspid aortic valve is not as easy to realize as in bicuspid aortic valve. The surgical design is crucial to rebuild the stable structure. He...

CONCLUSIONS: These results show that ALDH1A1 is downregulated in calcified valves, hence promoting VIC transition into an osteoblastic phenotype. Retinoic acid receptor alpha agonists, including all-trans retinoic acid through a drug repositioning strategy, represent a promising and innovative pharmacological approach to prevent calcification of native aortic valves and BPV.

This study compares sleep duration and stroke risk between residents of China and the U.S. during and outside the COVID-19 pandemic, examining age as an interaction effect.

The objective was to assess the clinical efficacy of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) alpha-2-macroglobulin-antisense 1 (A2M-AS1) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
