Mitral valve regurgitation in twins: Concordance and survival

open access: yesAmerican Heart Journal, 2016
Smaller observational studies have suggested familial clustering of mitral regurgitation (MR). Using a large twin cohort, the aims were to assess MR concordance rates and assess mortality in MR twins and unaffected cotwins.Through the Danish Twin Registry, twins with an International Classification of Diseases, Eighth Revision and Tenth Revision ...
