Functional anatomy and echocardiographic assessment in secondary mitral regurgitation
BACKGROUND: Mitral valve apparatus is complex and involves the mitral annulus, the leaflets, the chordae tendinae, the papillary muscles as well as the left atrial and ventricular myocardium. Secondary mitral regurgitation is a consequence of regional or

Cardiac remodelling in the era of the recommended four pillars heart failure medical therapy
Abstract Cardiac remodelling is a key determinant of worse cardiovascular outcome in patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It affects both the left ventricle (LV) structure and function as well as the left atrium (LA) and the right ventricle (RV).

Mitral valve surgery for functional mitral regurgitation: prognostic role of tricuspid regurgitation☆ [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of untreated moderate-or-more functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) on mid-term outcome of patients with functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) undergoing mitral valve surgery (MVS).From January 1988 to April 2003, 165 patients having FMR underwent MVS with untreated FTR.

Interventional therapies for chronic heart failure: An overview of recent developments
Abstract Heart failure (HF), the final manifestation of most cardiovascular diseases, has become a major global health concern, affecting millions of individuals. Despite basic drug treatments, patients present with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, recent advancements in interventional therapy have shown promising results in improving the ...

Abstract Objectives Atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR) is a unique category of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR), and surgical outcomes compared to traditional ventricular FMR (VFMR) are limited. This study compared long-term outcomes of mitral valve surgery (MVS) for patients with AFMR

Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.

Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled

Long-term prognosis of mild functional tricuspid regurgitation after mitral valve replacement
Objective: Functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) is the most common type of tricuspid insufficiency and occurs approximately in 30% of patients with mitral valve disease.
