Secondary Mitral Regurgitation

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2015
In their review of secondary mitral regurgitation (MR), Asgar et al. [(1)][1] attribute abnormal leaflet tethering largely to apical and lateral papillary muscle displacement. To our knowledge the first comprehensive quantitative echocardiographic study of this topic was reported in 1983 [(2)][2].

Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor for Functional Mitral Regurgitation: PRIME Study

Circulation, 2019
Background: The morbidity and mortality of patients with functional mitral regurgitation (MR) remain high, but no pharmacological therapy has been proven effective. The hypothesis of this study was that sacubitril/valsartan would be superior to valsartan
