Interventional Mitral Valve Edge‐to‐Edge Repair in Patients Above 85 Years of Age
Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Mitral valve transcatheter‐edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) is routinely performed in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) at high operative risk, frequently including elderly patients. Patients ≥ 85 years, however, are frequently excluded in clinical studies.

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.Kaplan–Meier hypertension‐free survival by baseline body mass index category, primary adult cohort (men aged ≥ 18 years, n = 12,742). Time since baseline in years is plotted on the horizontal axis and the probability of remaining free of treated hypertension is plotted on the vertical axis. Numbers at risk are shown beneath the plot.

Systemic aging fuels heart failure: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic avenues
ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1059-1080, April 2025.Abstract Systemic aging influences various physiological processes and contributes to structural and functional decline in cardiac tissue. These alterations include an increased incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, a decline in left ventricular diastolic function, left atrial dilation, atrial fibrillation, myocardial fibrosis and cardiac ...
