Transcatheter mitral valve repair with the PASCAL precision system: First case in Singapore

Severe mitral regurgitation (MR) is associated with significant mortality and morbidity when left untreated.1 In patients who are not suitable for surgery, transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) provides a minimally-invasive therapeutic option.

Mitral valve repair in heart failure [PDF]

, 2000
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a frequent complication of end‐stage heart failure. Historically, these patients were either managed medically or with mitral valve replacement, both associated with poor outcomes.

Percutaneous Mitral Valve Repair

Journal of Interventional Cardiology, 2007
Nonsurgical treatment of clinically important mitral regurgitation (MR) has evolved tremendously over the past decade. Recent studies of percutaneous mitral valve repair procedures have shown that less invasive procedures are safe and can be effective in selected patients. MitraClip has been studied most extensively.

Long-term outcome of isolated mitral valve repair versus replacement for degenerative mitral regurgitation in propensity-matched patients

Objective This study was performed to investigate the long-term outcomes in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing mitral valve repair (MVr) versus mitral valve replacement (MVR) without concomitant surgeries.

Immunomodulators, associated or not with systemic antibiotics, to treat periodontitis: A 1‐year multicenter, placebo‐controlled, double‐blind, randomized clinical trial

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Immunomodulatory agents such as omega‐3 (ω‐3) and low‐dose aspirin (ASA) have been proposed as effective adjuncts in the treatment of periodontitis. However, they still lack long‐term studies and head‐to‐head evaluation with metronidazole (MTZ) and amoxicillin (AMX), the adjunct protocol with the strongest scientific evidence of ...
