Computational estimates of annular diameter reveal genetic determinants of mitral valve function and disease

JCI Insight, 2022
The fibrous annulus of the mitral valve plays an important role in valvular function and cardiac physiology, while normal variation in the size of cardiovascular anatomy may share a genetic link with common and rare disease.

Parameters of the mitral apparatus in patients with ischemic and nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy

Journal of International Medical Research, 2023
The mitral valve apparatus is a complex structure consisting of several coordinating components: the annulus , two leaflets, the chordae tendineae, and the papillary muscles. Due to the intricate interplay between the mitral valve and the left ventricle,

Resolution of severe secondary mitral valve regurgitation following aortic valve replacement in infective endocarditis [PDF]

, 2021
We present the case of a patient with infective endocarditis anesthetized for replacement of severely regurgitant aortic valve. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography revealed a new diagnosis of severe secondary mitral regurgitation.

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...
