Influence of metabolic syndrome and diabetes on progression of calcific aortic valve stenosis
Determinants of the progression of aortic stenosis (AS) remained unclear. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and diabetes are suspected to play an active role but literature is scarce and results conflicting. We sought to assess their impact in an ongoing prospective cohort of asymptomatic patients with at least mild AS
Impact of Fetuin-A on progression of calcific aortic valve stenosis - The COFRASA - GENERAC study
Aortic stenosis (AS) is an active disease, but the determinants of AS progression remain largely unknown. Low levels of Fetuin-A, a powerful inhibitor of ectopic calcification, have been linked to ectopic calcium tissue deposition but its role in AS progression has not been clearly evaluated
