Clinical characteristics and outcomes of adults with acute heart failure in a South African teaching hospital

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
In this study of 406 adults admitted with acute heart failure, the overall in‐hospital mortality rate was 3.4%. Independent predictors of in‐hospital mortality included elevated neutrophil‐lymphocyte ratio, C‐reactive protein, and potassium levels, along with moderate or severe aortic regurgitation and lower diastolic blood pressure.

Indexed left atrial size predicts all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients undergoing aortic valve surgery [PDF]

, 2017
[Abstract] OBJECTIVES: The enlargement of the left atrium has been identified as a marker of chronically increased left ventricular filling pressure and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction.

Using Shockwave Lithotripsy to Treat Severe Calcified Mitral Stenosis in a Pregnant Woman. [PDF]

Catheter Cardiovasc Interv
ABSTRACT Rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) with significant calcification presents challenges for both surgical and transcatheter interventions. Percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) is often limited in these cases due to valve rigidity, increasing the risk of mitral regurgitation (MR).

Mean pulmonary arterial pressure after percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty predicts long-term adverse outcomes [PDF]

, 2012
INTRODUCTION AND AIM: Percutaneous mitral valvuloplasty (PMV) is an effective treatment option for mitral stenosis (MS), but its success is assessed on the basis of clinical and echocardiographic outcomes in studies with relatively short follow-up.

Disappearance of Spontaneous Echographic Contrast after Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty: An Indicator of Sustained Hemodynamic Improvement [PDF]

, 1990
In three patients undergoing mitral balloon valvuloplasty for mitral stenosis transesophageal echocardiography was performed before, immediately after, and 6 months after the procedure. In the one patient with persistent hemodynamically favorable result,

Severe tricuspid valve stenosis A cause of silent mitral stenosis.

Japanese Heart Journal, 1983
The diastolic rumbling murmur of mitral stenosis (MS) may be attenuated in the presence of low cardiac output, right ventricular enlargement, Lutembacher's syndrome, pulmonary emphysema, and obesity. In this report we would like to stress that the presence of tricuspid stenosis (TS) is an additional significant cause of silent MS. The clinical material
