Relationship between pressure recovery distance via momentum recovery (PRecDist-M) and studied factors in 32 bicuspid aortic valve subjects. A Linear relationship with the magnitude of aortic stenotic burden (assessed by the simplified advective work energy relative pressure, ΔPSAW), and identification of two subgroups that do not fit well the model. B Lack of relationship with remaining factors considered and that have been reported to influence net pressure drop: radius, eccentricity angle (Ecc Angle) and eccentricity displacement (Ecc disp.) analysed at the effective and geometric orifice area location (respectively, EOA and GOA locations). Note that the patients presenting a single plateau of pressure recovery are presented in blue and those with double pressure recovery plateau are presented in red
