Percutaneous Closure of Paravalvular Regurgitation After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: A Systematic Review.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We previously reported that an index of afterload-related left ventricular diastolic function, operant diastolic elastance (Ed)/effective arterial elastance (Ea) = E/e'/(0.9 × systolic blood pressure), was significantly higher in elderly hypertensive women. We aimed to determine sex-related differences in th...
