Bleeding and vascular complications were more common, but one-year outcomes confirmed patients in their nineties should still be considered for TAVR.

Patients presenting for TAVR or M-TEER with baseline moderate or severe tricuspid regurgitation were associated with lower post-treatment KCCQ scores and a higher mortality rate. Perhaps treating more of these patients with tricuspid valve repair or replacement could make a difference, researchers noted. 

MRI exams are crucial for investigating fetal abnormalities, but past concerns have been expressed about whether the modality could affect intrauterine growth. 

In addition to more traditional presentations, this year's meeting will also include "Rapid Fire" sessions designed to pack a lot of late-breaking data into a relatively small amount of time.

Prior studies have hypothesized that reduced functional connectivity in the amygdala was more common among people on the spectrum.

Specific brain connectivity patterns evident during childhood might make people more vulnerable to developing psychiatric disorders.

The findings, based on data from more than 800 TAVR patients, suggest that skipping OAC medications for a small amount of time could make a big impact.

When PCI patients present with complex lesions, optical coherence tomography may provide significant value.
