Background: Transcatheter aortic valve replacement is an evolving interventional therapy for patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Infolding (INF) as wrinkling along the valve frame is only seen in self-expandable transcatheter valves or surgical sutureless prostheses and is known to be a very rare event during delivery but probably underreported. Therefore, we aimed to (1) determine the frequency of events, (2) identify potential predictors of INF, and (3) evaluate the potential clinical impact of this adverse event.
Methods: INF cases of 2 centers were retrospectively analyzed in an all-comer cohort of 1416 patients with older- and newer-generation self-expandable (SEV) devices. The underlying functional, anatomical, and procedural conditions were evaluated by univariate analysis.
Results: INF+ was observed in 14 patients (1.0%) with the following valve size distribution: SEV-26: 14.3%, SEV-29: 28.6%, and SEV-34: 57.4%. Several dependent predictors of INF were pointed out, such as severe peripheral kinking, severe aortic calcification, resheathing maneuvers, valve-in-valve procedures, and the use of the largest valve size. INF+ patients showed a higher incidence of acute kidney injury (INF- vs. INF+: 12.3% vs. 35.7%; = 0.008), of a new atrioventricular block (INF- vs. INF+: 14.8% vs. 42.9%; = 0.003), and a higher need of permanent pacemaker implantation (INF- vs. INF+: 14.9% vs. 35.7%; = 0.031).
Conclusions: Identifying potential predictors of INF can probably influence the implantation strategy and improve safety algorithms and clinical outcomes. Even being a rare but potentially life-threatening and underreported event, safety rules must be established when expanding transcatheter aortic valve replacement treatment to younger patients.

Machine learning (ML) models now play a crucial role in predicting properties essential to drug development, such as a drug's logscale acid-dissociation constant (p). Despite recent architectural advances, these models often generalize poorly to novel compounds due to a scarcity of ground-truth data. Further, these models lack interpretability.

Despite remarkable advancements in the organic synthesis field facilitated by the use of machine learning (ML) techniques, the prediction of reaction outcomes, including yield estimation, catalyst optimization, and mechanism identification, continues to pose a significant challenge. This challenge arises primarily from the lack of appropriate descriptors capable of retaining crucial molecular information for accurate prediction while also ensuring computational efficiency. This study presents a successful application of ML for predicting the performance of Ir-catalyzed allylic substitution reactions.

In rational drug discovery, both free energy of binding and the binding half-life () are important factors in determining the efficacy of drugs. Numerous computational methods have been developed to predict these important properties, many of which rely on molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. While binding free-energy methods (thermodynamic equilibrium predictions) have been well validated and have demonstrated the ability to drive daily synthesis decisions in a commercial drug discovery setting, the prediction of (kinetics predictions) has had limited validation, and predictive methods have largely not been deployed in drug discovery settings.

Accurately predicting mutations in G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is critical for advancing disease diagnosis and drug discovery. In response to this imperative, GPTrans has emerged as a highly accurate predictor of disease-related mutations in GPCRs. The core innovation of GPTrans resides in the design of a novel feature extraction network, that is capable of integrating features from both wildtype and mutant protein variant sites, utilizing multifeature connections within a transformer framework to ensure comprehensive feature extraction.
