Aorta Bivalvulada muda tudo

Characteristics of Carotid Artery Structure and Mechanical Function and Their Relationships with Aortopathy in Patients with Bicuspid Aortic Valves

.

In conclusion, Bicuspid Aortic Valve  patients have different carotid artery structure and function compared with TAV patients, suggesting intrinsic vascular abnormalities that are less affected by established cardiovascular risk factors and more strongly related to the presence of aortopathy.

Hoje sabemos que a valvula bivalvulada é uma aortopatia. Mais ainda, uma vasculopatia.

.

Isto explica muitos dos achados e eventos em paciente com aorta bivalvulada.

.

Conclusion

We demonstrated improved classification performance with cognitive measures associated with executive function with our additional strain indices beyond the maximum accumulated strain indices and the local peak to trough strain indices that were described previously.

Since decline in the cognition measure of executive function is related to events like strokes, transient ischemic attacks and silent strokes, the relationship of the strain values and strain distribution to cognitive deficits demonstrates that multiple strain maxima and the underlying strain distribution and variability in plaque may provide additional new information and a relationship to the probability of plaque rupture.

.

Conclusions

Carotid plaque strain is reliably computed from routine B-mode imaging using clinical ultrasound machines. High plaque strain correlates with known high-risk echolucent morphology. Strain measurement can complement identification of patients at high risk for plaque disruption and stroke.

Estudo brilhante de Strain na placa de carótida.

Fácil de realizar , sem contraste e não invasivo.

O papel do Strain (Deformação) ainda está longe de ser definido, colocando o ultra-som em primeiro plano novamente.
