It's Wrong!
Thickening of the aortic valve can result in a heart murmur. A heart murmur is an abnormal sound heard during a heartbeat, which is caused by turbulent blood flow. When the aortic valve thickens, it can disrupt the normal flow of blood through the heart, leading to turbulent blood flow and the production of a heart murmur. This can be a sign of aortic valve stenosis, a condition where the valve becomes narrowed and obstructs blood flow from the heart.
