Impact of Triglycerides and Remnant Particles on Hemodynamic Valve Deterioration After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

JACC AdvPublished Retrospective cohort study

Authors' conclusion

Elevated triglycerides and remnant cholesterol were associated with a higher cumulative incidence of HVD, and elevated triglycerides were associated with a higher annualized rate of change in peak aortic jet velocity.

Study context

Outcome
Moderate or severe HVD (VARC-3), all-cause death as competing risk
