1 Are mechanical valves with enhanced inner diameter advantageous in the small sized aortic annulus? 
Johannes M Albes, MD, Martin Hartrumpf, MD, Volker Rudolph, MD, Tanja Krempl, MD, Egbert Hüttemann, MD, Rüdiger Vollandt, PhD, Thorsten Wahlers, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 76, Issue 5, Pages (November 2003) DOI: /S (03)

2 Fig 1 Regression analysis. Correlation of mean transvalvular gradients obtained with direct pressure measurement (TVGCATH; mm Hg) and echocardiographic Doppler assessment (TVGTEE; mm Hg) is shown. Correlation is indicated by a regression line ± 95% confidence interval (dashed lines) (correlation coefficient, 0.84; R2, 0.71). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /S (03) )
