The Journal of invasive cardiology, Volume 35, Issue 11, 1 1 2023 Mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with PASCAL vs MitraClip: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Oliveri F, Al Amri I, Cabezas JM, Bingen B, Van Der Kley F, Arslan F, Scherptong R, Mazzarotto P, Bollati M, Pepe A, Tua L, Bongiorno A, Fasolino A, Gentile FR, Colombo D, Ghio S, Ferlini M, Munafo A
Background: Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) using the MitraClip (Abbott Vascular) system has emerged as a standard treatment for patients with symptomatic severe secondary or inoperable primary mitral regurgitation (MR). The relatively recent approval of the PASCAL Transcatheter Valve Repair System (Edwards Lifesciences) has expanded the options of TEER devices. However, evidence comparing PASCAL with MitraClip systems is still limited. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature rese... Abstract

Background: Use of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for treating peri-stent calcification is increasing. However, this indication remains 'off-label'. We aimed to investigate the efficacy and clinical outcomes of in-stent IVL. Methods: Patients from five European centers who underwent in-stent IVL were included between 2019 and 2023. Demographic, clinical, procedural and follow-up data were collected from electronic hospital records. Angiographic and intracoronary imaging (ICI) data wer... Abstract

Bingen BO, Al Amri I, Montero-Cabezas JM, van der Kley F
Coronary access difficulty and stent compression by the juxtaposed aortic valve leaflet hamper percutaneous management of delayed coronary artery obstruction (CAO) after valve-in-valve (Edwards Sapien 3 in St. Jude Trifecta) transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Here, we present a case of delayed post-TAVR CAO treated with intravascular lithotripsy and multistenting to overcome stent compression by the adjacent calcified leaflet. Abstract

The American journal of cardiology, Volume 118, Issue 3, 14 2 2016, Pages 326-331 Prognostic Implications of Elevated Pulmonary Artery Pressure After ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction. Haeck ML, Hoogslag GE, Boden H, Velders MA, Katsanos S, Al Amri I, Debonnaire P, Schalij MJ, Vliegen HW, Bax JJ, Marsan NA, Delgado V
Elevated systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been associated with adverse outcome. However, little is known about the development of increased SPAP after STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The aims of this study were to investigate the incidence and determinants of elevated SPAP (SPAP ≥36 mm Hg at 12 months) after first STEMI and to analyze its prognostic implications. A total of 705 patients (60 ± 12 ... Abstract

American heart journal, Volume 178, 30 5 2016, Pages 115-125 Time course, predictors, and prognostic implications of significant mitral regurgitation after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Abate E, Hoogslag GE, Al Amri I, Debonnaire P, Wolterbeek R, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Marsan NA
Background: Ischemic mitral regurgitation (MR) is a known complication of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with important prognostic implications. We evaluated changes over time in ischemic MR after STEMI and the prevalence and predictors of significant (grade ≥2) MR at 12 months. Furthermore, the prognostic additional value of significant MR at 12-month follow-up over acute MR was assessed. Methods: STEMI patients (n = 1,599; 77% male; 60 ± 12 years) treated with primary percu... Abstract

Journal of applied clinical medical physics, Volume 17, Issue 2, 8 2 2016, Pages 291-303 Diamond detector in absorbed dose measurements in high-energy linear accelerator photon and electron beams. Ravichandran R, Binukumar JP, Al Amri I, Davis CA
Diamond detectors (DD) are preferred in small field dosimetry of radiation beams because of small dose profile penumbras, better spatial resolution, and tissue-equivalent properties. We investigated a commercially available 'microdiamond' detector in realizing absorbed dose from first principles. A microdiamond detector, type TM 60019 with tandem electrometer is used to measure absorbed doses in water, nylon, and PMMA phantoms. With sensitive volume 0.004 mm3, radius 1.1mm, thickness 1...

Joyce E, Hoogslag GE, Al Amri I, Debonnaire P, Katsanos S, Bax JJ, Delgado V, Marsan NA
Background: Residual ischemia detection after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) during dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) using visual analysis is challenging. The aim of the present study was to investigate the feasibility and accuracy of two-dimensional speckle-tracking strain DSE to detect significant coronary artery disease (CAD) after STEMI. Methods: First STEMI patients (n = 105; mean age, 60 ± 11 years; 86% men) treated with primary percutaneous coronary interventio... Abstract

European heart journal, Volume 36, Issue 31, 1 1 2015, Pages 2087-2096 Low gradient severe aortic stenosis with preserved ejection fraction: reclassification of severity by fusion of Doppler and computed tomographic data. Kamperidis V, van Rosendael PJ, Katsanos S, van der Kley F, Regeer M, Al Amri I, Sianos G, Marsan NA, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Aims: Low gradient severe aortic stenosis (AS) with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) may be attributed to aortic valve area index (AVAi) underestimation due to the assumption of a circular shape of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) with 2-dimensional echocardiography. The current study evaluated whether fusing Doppler and multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) data to calculate AVAi results in significant reclassification of inconsistently graded severe AS. Methods a... Abstract

The American journal of cardiology, Volume 115, Issue 12, 24 4 2015, Pages 1726-1732 Timing of staged percutaneous coronary intervention before transcatheter aortic valve implantation. van Rosendael PJ, van der Kley F, Kamperidis V, Katsanos S, Al Amri I, Regeer M, Schalij MJ, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Significant coronary artery disease is highly prevalent in patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Timing of staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in TAVI candidates remains debated. The present study assessed the impact of timing of the staged PCI on TAVI outcomes. Ninety-six patients (age 81 ± 5 years, 57% men) who had undergone staged PCI within 1 year before TAVI were included. The population was dichotomized according to the median time elapsed betwe...

Mitral regurgitation is one of the most prevalent valvular heart diseases and its prevalence is related to population aging. Elderly patients with age-associated co-morbidities have an increased risk for conventional mitral valve surgery. Transcatheter mitral valve repair has emerged as a feasible and safe alternative in patients with contraindications for surgery or high operative risk. Several transcatheter mitral repair technologies have been developed during the last decade. While the develo... Abstract

Background: Changes in mitral valve geometry in patients with significant aortic regurgitation (AR) have not been evaluated. The aim of the present study was to assess the prevalence of significant secondary mitral regurgitation (MR; grade ≥ 2) and the geometric characteristics of the mitral valve in patients with moderate and severe AR (grade ≥ 2) undergoing aortic valve and root surgery. Methods: One-hundred twenty patients (mean age, 54 ± 15 years; 65% men) with AR grade ≥ 2 undergoing aortic... Abstract

Background: Atheroembolic renal disease, due to dislodgement of cholesterol crystals during maneuvering of a large catheter across the aorta and deployment of the transcatheter prosthesis within a calcified aortic valve, may be one of the pathophysiological mechanisms of acute kidney injury (AKI) complicating transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Objective: To investigate the association between the atherosclerotic burden and plaque characteristics of the aortic valve and thoracic aort... Abstract
