Clinical impact of tricuspid regurgitation in patients with acute myocardial infarction
Abstract Aims The clinical impact of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is largely unknown. The aim of this study was to clarify the prevalence and prognostic impact of TR in post‐AMI patients treated with appropriate primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Impact of mitral transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (M‐TEER) on left and right heart function. IQR, interquartile range; LA, left atrial; RVEF, right ventricular ejection fraction; sPAP, systolic pulmonary artery pressure; TAPSE, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion. Abstract Aims Long‐standing severe mitral regurgitation (MR) leads to left atrial
