J Cardiovasc Magn Reson . 2025 Jan; 27(1):101413. PMID: 39742974
Background: Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is a controversial entity. Recently, a distinction between pseudo-MAD, present in systole and secondary to juxtaposition of the billowing posterior leaflet on the left atrial...

Gomes D, Bello A, Freitas P, Pereira J, Matos D, Lopes P, et al.
J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol . 2024 Nov; 36(2):323-330. PMID: 39611529
Background: Left atrial (LA) remodeling plays a significant role in the progression of atrial fibrillation (AF). Although LA wall thickness (LAWT) has emerged as an indicator of structural remodeling, its...

J Cardiovasc Imaging . 2024 Sep; 32(1):29. PMID: 39238055
Background: Aortic regurgitation (AR) has an important impact on myocardial mechanics and recent studies have proved the value of global longitudinal strain (GLS) in the assessment of its severity and...

Akyea R, Figliozzi S, Lopes P, Bauer K, Moura-Ferreira S, Tondi L, et al.
Radiol Cardiothorac Imaging . 2024 Jun; 6(3):e230247. PMID: 38900026
Purpose To use unsupervised machine learning to identify phenotypic clusters with increased risk of arrhythmic mitral valve prolapse (MVP). Materials and Methods This retrospective study included patients with MVP without...

Reis Santos R, Abecasis J, Maltes S, Lopes P, Oliveira L, Freitas P, et al.
Sci Rep . 2024 Mar; 14(1):7085. PMID: 38528043
Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy is a common finding in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold-standard technique to evaluate LV remodeling. Our aim was...

Abecasis J, Lopes P, Maltes S, Reis Santos R, Ferreira A, Ribeiras R, et al.
Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging . 2024 Jan; 25(6):839-848. PMID: 38246861
Aims: Myocardial fibrosis (MF) takes part in left ventricular (LV) remodelling in patients with aortic stenosis (AS), driving the transition from hypertrophy to heart failure. The structural changes that occur...

Abecasis J, Maltes S, Reis Santos R, Lopes P, Manso R, Gil V, et al.
Cardiovasc Pathol . 2023 Nov; 69:107589. PMID: 38029890
Background: Myocardial adaptation to severe aortic stenosis (AS) is a complex process that involves myocardial fibrosis (MF) beyond cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Perfusion impairment is believed to be involved in myocardial remodeling...

Albuquerque F, Lopes P, Freitas P, de Araujo Goncalves P, Presume J, Guerreiro S, et al.
Am J Cardiol . 2023 Aug; 205:35-39. PMID: 37586119
Concerns have been raised about the added diagnostic value of coronary artery calcium score (CACS) of 0 for reducing the likelihood of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in younger patients....
