Mitral Valve Stenosis after Open Repair Surgery for Non-Rheumatic Mitral Valve Regurgitation: a Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2016
Mitral stenosis (MS) after mitral valve repair is a slowly progressive condition, usually detected many years after the index mitral valve surgery. It is defined as a transmitral pressure gradient (TMPG) of >5 mmHg or a mitral valve area (MVA)

Right ventricle to pulmonary artery coupling as a prognostic factor in tricuspid regurgitation: A systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
The TAPSE/SPAP ratio is associated with worse prognosis in patients with significant tricuspid regurgitation and could indicate at‐risk patients. The exact cutoff value for RV‐PA uncoupling remains difficult to define and in available studies ranged from 0.26 to 0.49 mm/mmHg.
