The Associations of Aortic Valve Sclerosis, Aortic Annular Increased Reflectivity, and Mitral Annular Calcification with Subsequent Aortic Stenosis in Older Individuals: Findings from the Cardiovascular Health Study

Background Although aortic valve sclerosis (AVS) is well described as preceding aortic stenosis (AS), the associations of AS with antecedent mitral annular calcification (MAC) and aortic annular increased reflectivity (AAIR) have not been characterized. In a population-based prospective study, the authors evaluated whether MAC, AAIR, and AVS are associated with the risk for incident AS.

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Asymptomatic Nonsevere Aortic Stenosis

Increased biomechanical stress on cardiomyocytes because of outflow obstruction secondary to aortic stenosis (AS) is thought to induce reexpression of the fetal gene program, which modifies myocyte efficiency, sarcomere composition, and regulation of extracellular matrix, as well as various nuclear signal transduction pathways resulting in autocrine production and secretion of cytokines, neurohormones and growth factors that ultimately promote ventricular hypertrophy.1,2 See Article by Gerdts...
