TL;DR: Clinically silent new foci of restricted diffusion on cerebral magnetic resonance imaging were detected in almost all patients undergoing TAVI, although typically multiple, these foci were not associated with apparent neurological events or measurable deterioration of neurocognitive function during 3-month follow-up.

TL;DR: In this article, high-intensity transient signals (HITS) were detected in all patients, predominantly during manipulation of the calcified aortic valve while stent valves were being positioned and implanted.

TL;DR: This meta‐analysis aims to determine whether cardiac troponins and (N‐terminal pro) brain natriuretic peptide (BNP/NT‐proBNP) predict cancer therapy‐related left ventricular (LV) dysfunction.

TL;DR: The patient collective appears to be prone to vascular complications which remain an important limitation of this novel technique, and further technological developments are obliged to reduce the vascular complication rate.

TL;DR: Transesophageal echocardiography identified 17.6% of patients with thrombus formation on the ACP despite dual antiplatelet therapy, and CHADS2 and CHA2DS2-VASc scores, platelet count, and ejection fraction are risk factors for such thrombi.
