The Pan African Medical Journal, 2016 Rheumatic valve disease, a consequence of acute rheumatic fever, remains endemic in developing countries in the sub-Saharan region where it is the leading cause of heart failure and cardiovascular death, involving predominantly a young population.

Mitral Valve Repair: The Chordae Tendineae
Journal of Tehran University Heart Center, 2015 Repair of the mitral valve is the treatment of choice for mitral valve regurgitation when the anatomy is favorable. It is well known that mitral valve repair enjoys better clinical and functional results than any other type of valve substitute. This fact

Temporal profiling of M‐TEER‐related complications
ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair of the mitral valve (M‐TEER) is known for its low complication rates. However, the optimal level and duration of post‐procedural care remain unclear. This study aimed to identify the specific timeframe of post‐procedural complications following M‐TEER.

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2017 Objective: Ischemic mitral regurgitation is common and increases mortality, even when mild. (American Heart Association) AHA and European association have both stressed the need of mitral valve repair in patients with moderate or more regurgitation.

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Background Atrial secondary mitral valve regurgitation (ASMR) is a distinct anatomical subset of secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). Evidence of the effect of transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) on left atrial (LA) anatomy and function, especially reverse remodelling (LARR), is still sparse.

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2010 Libman-Sacks endocarditis of the mitral valve was first described by Libman and Sacks in 1924. Currently, the sterile verrucous vegetative lesions seen in Libman-Sacks endocarditis are regarded as a cardiac manifestation of both systemic lupus ...

Right ventricular reserve post mitral valve repair is associated with heart failure hospitalization
Pulmonary Circulation, 2020 Right ventricular impairment is a predictor of cardiovascular outcomes in patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation. However, the time course of right ventricular functional changes post-surgical mitral valve repair remains largely unknown. Herein,

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Information about current use of finerenone in patients with heart failure (HF) finerenone in clinical practice is scarce, and its effectiveness in clinical practice in patients is scarce. We aim to assess both the baseline clinical profile and prognostic role of finerenone in patients with HF, irrespective of ejection fraction.
