Transcatheter interventions for functional mitral regurgitation [PDF]
Annals of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018 Mitral regurgitation is considered the most prevalent valve disease in the United States and its incidence is increasing due to the aging population. Surgical mitral valve repair and replacement are effective at reducing regurgitation due to ischemia, but many patients with secondary mitral regurgitation do not undergo surgery because they are too high

Incidence and causal association of functional atrial mitral regurgitation in HFpEF
Hellenic Journal of Cardiology, 2023 Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is as common as heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Atrial fibrillation (AF), as well as the presence of mitral regurgitation (MR), is highly prevalent in these patients.
