However, a positive trend was observed for all WSS metrics in the BAV cohort while no trend was observed for any of the WSS metrics in the TAV cohort.
Interestingly, by accounting for the presence of AS, a negative trend was observed between WSS mag and aortic diameter ( Figures 5 , 6 ) though it did not reach statistical significance, resulting in an apparent paradox compared to when AS was not accounted for as an additional variable ( Figures 3A , 4 ).
