Segmentation of jet area to quantity the severity of mitral regurgitation by color Doppler echocardiography

open access: yesInternational Journal of Noncommunicable Diseases, 2018
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a disorder of mitral valve and it is one of the most common causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Mitral valve allows blood to flow from left atrium, to the left ventricle and Mitral Valve regurgitation results in

Potential Prognostic Relevance of Left-Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain and of the Summation of the Mitral and Tricuspid Regurgitation Volume in Patients with Non-Ischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Background: The aim of this pilot study was to determine the potential prognostic relevance of novel multidirectional myocardial and volumetric echocardiographic parameters in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM).

One-Year Outcomes After MitraClip for Functional Mitral Regurgitation

open access: yesCirculation, 2019
Background: Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) occurs in the absence of organic mitral valve disease and may develop as the left ventricle dilates or remodels or as a result of leaflet tethering with impaired coaptation, most commonly from apical and ...

Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.

Mitral Anterior Leaflet Perforation Due to Jet Flow in Aortic Valve Insufficiency

open access: yesKardiyovasküler Tıp E Dergisi/E Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine
Mitral valve disease is one of the most common pathologies of heart valve diseases. Mitral regurgitation may develop due to pathologies in the valve apparatus (primary regurgitation) or due to pathologies related to the atrium and/or ventricle (secondary

MitraClip as a therapeutic strategy for post-myocardial infarction mitral regurgitation

open access: yesJournal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023
Mitral regurgitation is a serious complication of post-myocardial infarction, with increasing mortality. Surgery as the primary treatment carries a high risk. MitraClip is a new therapeutic to treat post-myocardial infarction mitral regurgitation.

Two-Year Outcomes of Surgical Treatment of Moderate Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2016
BACKGROUND In a trial comparing coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) alone with CABG plus mitral-valve repair in patients with moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation, we found no significant difference in the left ventricular end-systolic volume index (

Emergent Cardiac Surgery After Transcatheter Structural Heart Procedures: Narrative Review

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transcatheter structural heart procedures have become standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risk. Over time, these procedures have significantly increased worldwide, accompanied by a concomitant reduction of major complications, including those requiring emergent cardiac surgery (ECS).
