Why the study?
The pathophysiology of bicuspid aortic valve-associated aortopathy is not fully understood, with known genetic mutations explaining only 5-10% of cases.

May refine BAV aortopathy monitoring; leaves open causal validation before practice change.
Current genetic mutations explain only a small fraction of bicuspid aortopathy cases, emphasizing the need for further research into molecular pathways for potential therapeutic targets.
Junco-Vicente et al. (2021) studied this question.
