Repair Versus Replacement for Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2008
Background: This study was undertaken to compare the outcome in patients with moderate to severe ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with either mitral valve repair or mitral valve replacement.

Is Mitral Valve Repair Superior to Mitral Valve Replacement in Elderly Patients? Comparison of Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes in a Propensity‐Matched Cohort

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundBecause of demographic changes, a growing number of elderly patients present with mitral valve (MV) disease. Although mitral valve repair (MV‐repair) is the “gold standard” treatment for MV disease, in elderly patients, there is controversy ...

Proportionate and Disproportionate Functional Mitral Regurgitation: A New Conceptual Framework That Reconciles the Results of the MITRA-FR and COAPT Trials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Traditional approaches to the characterization of secondary or functional mitral regurgitation (MR) have largely ignored the critical importance of the left ventricle (LV).

Atrial‐secondary tricuspid regurgitation: a better prognosis in early stage heart failure, but not in late stage

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Atrial TR as more favourable prognosis except in advanced patients. Abstract Background and Aims Although the classification of secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR) by atrial or ventricular aetiology (A‐STR or V‐STR) carries prognostic importance, the confounding effects of New York Heart Association (NYHA) class have not yet been elucidated.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...

Clinical impact of tricuspid regurgitation in patients with acute myocardial infarction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
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).

The pulmonary artery pulsatility index in patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing valve replacement

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims The pulmonary artery pulsatility index (PAPi), that is, the pulmonary artery pulse pressure (PAPP) divided by the mean right atrial pressure (mRAP), is an increasingly used invasive index of right ventricular function. We sought to assess the prognostic impact of the PAPi in unselected patients with aortic stenosis (AS ...

Coronin 1 deficiency protects from the development of autoimmune myocarditis by reducing CD4+ T cells

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) caused by viral myocarditis and autoimmune processes is a frequent cause for heart failure. CD4+ T cells are indispensable for autoimmune myocarditis. Coronin 1 is required for peripheral T cell survival.
