RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Although mitral valve repair is the preferred surgical strategy in children with mitral valve disease, there are cases of irreparable severe dysplastic valves that require mitral valve replacement. The aim of this study is to analyze long-term outcomes following mitral valve replacement in children in a tertiary referral center. METHODS: A total of 41 consecutive patients underwent mitral valve replacement between February 2001 and February 2021. The study data was prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed. Primary outcomes were in-hospital mortality, long-term survival, and long-term freedom from reoperation. RESULTS: Median age at operation was 23 months (IQR 5-93), median weight was 11.3 kg (IQR 4.8-19.4 kg). One (2.4%) patient died within the first 30 postoperative days. In-hospital mortality was 4.9%. Four (9.8%) patients required re-exploration for bleeding, and 2 (4.9%) patients needed extracorporeal life support. Median follow-up was 11 years (IQR 11 months - 16 years). Long-term freedom from re-operation after 1, 5, 10 and 15 years was 97.1%, 93.7%, 61.8% and 42.5%, respectively. Long-term survival after 1, 5, 10 and 15 years was 89.9%, 87%, 87% and 80.8%, respectively. CONCLUSION: If MV repair is not feasible, MV replacement offers a good surgical alternative for pediatric patients with MV disease. It provides good early- and long-term outcomes.

BACKGROUND: The impact of intraprocedural results following transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in primary mitral regurgitation (MR) is controversial. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate the prognostic impact of intraprocedural residual mitral regurgitation (rMR) and mean mitral valve gradient (MPG) in patients with primary MR undergoing TEER. METHODS: The PRIME-MR (Outcomes of Patients Treated With Mitral Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair for Primary Mitral Regurgitation) registry included consecutive patients with primary MR undergoing TEER from 2008 to 2022 at 27 international sites. Clinical outcomes were assessed according to intraprocedural rMR and mean MPG. Patients were categorized according to rMR (optimal result: ≤1+, suboptimal result: ≥2+) and MPG (low gradient: ≤5 mm Hg, high gradient: > 5 mm Hg). The prognostic impact of rMR and MPG was evaluated in a Cox regression analysis. The primary endpoint was 2-year all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization. RESULTS: Intraprocedural rMR and mean MPG were available in 1,509 patients (median age = 82 years [Q1-Q3: 76.0-86.0 years], 55.1% male). Kaplan-Meier analysis according to rMR severity showed significant differences for the primary endpoint between rMR ≤1+ (29.1%), 2+ (41.7%), and ≥3+ (58.0%; P < 0.001), whereas there was no difference between patients with a low (32.4%) and high gradient (42.1%; P = 0.12). An optimal result/low gradient was achieved in most patients (n = 1,039). The worst outcomes were observed in patients with a suboptimal result/high gradient. After adjustment, rMR ≥2+ was independently linked to the primary endpoint (HR: 1.87; 95% CI: 1.32-2.65; P < 0.001), whereas MPG >5 mm Hg was not (HR: 0.78; 95% CI: 0.47-1.31; P = 0.35). CONCLUSIONS: Intraprocedural rMR but not MPG independently predicted clinical outcomes following TEER for primary MR. When performing TEER in primary MR, optimal MR reduction seems to outweigh the impact of high transvalvular gradients.

BACKGROUND: Mitral annular calcification (MAC) is a progressive degenerative process associated with comorbidities and increased mortality. A staging system that considers extramitral cardiac damage in MAC may help improve patient selection for mitral valve interventions. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to develop a transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE)-based cardiac staging system in patients with MAC and significant mitral valve dysfunction and assess its prognostic utility. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated all adults who underwent TTE over 1 year at Mayo Clinic with MAC and significant mitral valve dysfunction defined as mitral stenosis and/or at least moderate mitral regurgitation. Patients were categorized into 5 stages according to extramitral cardiac damage by TTE. All-cause mortality and heart failure hospitalization were assessed. RESULTS: For the 953 included patients, the mean age was 76.2 ± 10.7 years, and 54.0% were women. Twenty-eight (2.9%) patients were classified in stages 0 to 1, 499 (52.4%) in stage 2, 115 (12.1%) in stage 3, and 311 (32.6%) in stage 4. At the 3.8-year follow-up, mortality was significantly higher in patients in stages 2 to 4 compared to stages 0 to 1 and increased with each stage. Survival differences were maintained after adjustment for age, diabetes mellitus, and glomerular filtration rate. The rate of heart failure hospitalization was significantly higher in stages 3 and 4 compared to stages 0 to 1. Similar results were observed in subgroup analysis in patients with moderate or severe MAC, predominant mitral stenosis, or predominant mitral regurgitation. CONCLUSIONS: Using the proposed extramitral cardiac damage staging system in patients with MAC and significant mitral valve dysfunction, more advanced stages are associated with higher mortality.

BACKGROUND: Transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) is a therapeutic option for patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) who are ineligible for conventional surgery. There are limited data on the outcomes of large patient cohorts treated with TMVR. AIMS: This study aimed to investigate the outcomes and predictors of mortality for patients treated with transapical TMVR. METHODS: This analysis represents the clinical experience of all patients enrolled in the Tendyne Expanded Clinical Study. Patients with symptomatic MR underwent transapical TMVR with the Tendyne system between November 2014 and June 2020. Outcomes and adverse events up to 2 years, as well as predictors of short-term mortality, were assessed. RESULTS: A total of 191 patients were treated (74.1±8.0 years, 62.8% male, Society of Thoracic Surgeons Predicted Risk of Mortality 7.7±6.6%). Technical success was achieved in 96.9% (185/191), and there were no intraprocedural deaths. At 30-day, 1- and 2-year follow-up, the rates of all-cause mortality were 7.9%, 30.8% and 40.5%, respectively. Complete MR elimination (MR <1+) was observed in 99.3%, 99.1% and 96.3% of patients, respectively. TMVR treatment resulted in consistent improvement of New York Heart Association Functional Class and quality of life up to 2 years (both p<0.001). Independent predictors of early mortality were age (odds ratio [OR] 1.11; p=0.003), pulmonary hypertension (OR 3.83; p=0.007), and institutional experience (OR 0.40; p=0.047). CONCLUSIONS: This study investigated clinical outcomes in the full cohort of patients included in the Tendyne Expanded Clinical Study. The Tendyne TMVR system successfully eliminated MR with no intraprocedural deaths, resulting in an improvement in symptoms and quality of life. Continued refinement of clinical and echocardiographic risks will be important to optimise longitudinal outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Advanced heart failure (AHF) secondary to myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) in dogs has unclear predictive variables and survival time. METHODS: This retrospective study included 38 dogs with AHF and 38 with stable congestive heart failure (CHF), both due to MMVD. Predictive variables for AHF were analysed, and survival times were calculated using logistic regression and the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: Left atrium to aortic root ratio, normalised left ventricular dimension at the end-diastole and end-systole, isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) and early transmitral inflow velocity to IVRT ratio were associated with AHF progression. The median survival times were significantly longer in the stable group than in the AHF group. After AHF diagnosis, the median survival times for all-cause and cardiogenic mortality were 194 and 354 days, respectively. LIMITATIONS: This was a single-centre retrospective observational study. The study population was small, with breed bias (overrepresentation of Maltese dogs). Additionally, the treatment plans depended on clinical experience. CONCLUSIONS: AHF in dogs with CHF secondary to MMVD is linked to left heart chamber enlargement and increased left ventricular dimensions, significantly reducing survival time to around six months post-diagnosis. Early recognition and appropriate management may improve outcomes, highlighting the importance of advanced treatment strategies.

Objective. To evaluate patient characteristics and 5-year outcomes after surgical mitral valve (MV) repair for leaflet prolapse at a medium-sized cardiothoracic center. Background. Contemporary reports on the outcome of MV repair at medium-sized cardiothoracic centers are sparse. Methods. Patients receiving open-heart surgery with MV repair due to primary mitral regurgitation caused by leaflet prolapse between 2015 and 2021, without active endocarditis, were included. Clinical data, complications, re-interventions, mortality, and echocardiographic data were retrospectively registered from electronical patient charts, both pre-operatively and from post-operative follow-ups. Results. One hundred and three patients were included, 83% male, with a mean age of 62 years. All-cause mortality was 9% during a median follow-up time of 4.9 years. Re-intervention rate on the MV was 4%. Post-operative complications before last available follow-up visit at median 3.0 years were infrequent, with new-onset atrial fibrillation/flutter in 16%, post-operative MV regurgitation grade II or above in 17% and post-operative tricuspid regurgitation grade II or above in 14%. Conclusions. These data demonstrate that surgical MV repair for leaflet prolapse at a medium-sized cardiothoracic center was associated with low re-intervention rate and few severe complications. The presented results are comparable to data from surgical high-volume centers, indicating that surgical MV repair can be safely performed at selected medium-sized cardiothoracic centers.

BACKGROUND: The epidemiological distribution of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in heart failure (HF) and mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF) patients and its impact on outcomes remains unclear. We attempt to investigate the prognosis of FMR in patients with HFmrEF. METHODS: The HF center registry study is a prospective, single, observational study conducted at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shenzhen University, where 2330 patients with acute HF (AHF) were enrolled and 890 HFmrEF patients were included in the analysis. The patients were stratified into three categories based on the severity of FMR: none/mild, moderate, and moderate-to-severe/severe groups. Subsequently, a comparison of the clinical characteristics among these groups was conducted, along with an assessment of the incidence of the primary endpoint (comprising all-cause mortality and readmission for HF) during a one-year follow-up period. RESULTS: The one-year follow-up results indicated that the primary composite endpoint occurrence rates in the three groups were 23.5%, 32.9%, and 36.5%, respectively. The all-cause mortality rates in the three groups were 9.3%, 13.7%, and 16.4% respectively. Survival analysis demonstrated a statistically significant difference in the occurrence rates of the primary composite endpoint and all-cause mortality among the three groups (P < 0.05). Multifactor Cox regression revealed that moderate FMR and moderate-to-severe/severe FMR were independent risk factors for adverse clinical prognosis in HFmrEF patients, with hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals of 1.382 (1.020-1.872, P = 0.037) and 1.546 (1.092-2.190, P = 0.014) respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Moderate FMR and moderate-to-severe/severe FMR independently predict an unfavorable prognosis in patients with HFmrEF.

BACKGROUND: Right ventricular impairment is common among patients undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair for secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). Adherence to guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) for heart failure is poor in these patients. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of GDMT on long-term survival in this patient cohort. METHODS: Within the EuroSMR (European Registry of Transcatheter Repair for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation) international registry, we selected patients with SMR and right ventricular impairment (tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion ≤17 mm and/or echocardiographic right ventricular-to-pulmonary artery coupling <0.40 mm/mm Hg). Titrated guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMTtit) was defined as a coprescription of 3 drug classes with at least one-half of the target dose at the latest follow-up. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality at 6 years. RESULTS: Among 1,213 patients with SMR and right ventricular impairment, 852 had complete data on medical therapy. The 123 patients who were on GDMTtit showed a significantly higher long-term survival vs the 729 patients not on GDMTtit (61.8% vs 36.0%; P < 0.00001). Propensity score-matched analysis confirmed a significant association between GDMTtit and higher survival (61.0% vs 43.1%; P = 0.018). GDMTtit was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality (HR: 0.61; 95% CI: 0.39-0.93; P = 0.02 for patients on GDMTtit vs those not on GDMTtit). Its association with better outcomes was confirmed among all subgroups analyzed. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with right ventricular impairment undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair for SMR, titration of GDMT to at least one-half of the target dose is associated with a 40% lower risk of all-cause death up to 6 years and should be pursued independent of comorbidities.

BACKGROUND: Gender- and sex-based disparities in mitral valve disease exist; however the factors associated with these differences are unknown. Identifying these differences is essential in devising mitigating strategies. We evaluated gender and sex differences among patients with severe primary mitral regurgitation (MR) across treatment phases. METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with new diagnoses of severe primary MR between 2016 and 2020. We compared multidisciplinary evaluation incidence and 2-year survival between men and women. We analyzed a subgroup meeting class 1 indications for intervention, which includes severe symptomatic MR or severe asymptomatic MR with ejection fraction <60% or left ventricular end-systolic diameter >40 mm. Logistic regression models identified predictors associated with the likelihood of multidisciplinary evaluation. Among 330 patients meeting class 1 indications, women were older (79 versus 76 years, P=0.01) and had higher Society of Thoracic Surgeons risk scores for mitral valve repair than men (2.5% versus 1.4%, P=0.003). Women were less likely to undergo multidisciplinary evaluation (57% versus 84%, P<0.001) and intervention (47% versus 69%, P<0.001) than men. Median days to intervention for women and men were 77 and 43, respectively. Women had a higher 2-year mortality rate than men (31% versus 21%, P=0.035). On a multivariable model, female sex and older age were associated with lower odds of undergoing multidisciplinary evaluation (odds ratio, 0.26; P<0.001; odds ratio, 0.95; P<0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Women with severe primary MR with class 1 indication for intervention were less likely to undergo multidisciplinary evaluation and intervention and had a longer interval to intervention than men. Survival was comparable after accounting for age and comorbidity differences.

AIMS: This study assessed the outcomes of concomitant mitral valve disease and severe aortic stenosis in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). METHODS: Echocardiographic data of 813 patients with severe aortic stenosis undergoing transfemoral TAVR were collected, and clinical outcomes were analyzed for individuals with mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation. RESULTS: The final cohort includes 788 patients with severe calcific aortic stenosis. Among single parameters of mitral stenosis, a smaller baseline mitral valve area (MVA) by the continuity equation and higher postprocedural mean mitral gradients (MMG) were associated with an increased risk of death at 1 year (P-values 0.02 and <0.01, respectively), but no correlation with outcomes was demonstrated after multivariate adjustment for major prognosticators. Mitral stenosis (based on MVA + MMG) was not associated with complications or mortality. Mitral regurgitation was present in 94.6% of the population at baseline and regressed by at least one grade post-TAVR in 28% of the patients. The improvement in mitral regurgitation was associated with a greater prosthetic effective orifice area (P-value 0.03). Significant (at least moderate) residual mitral regurgitation was correlated with short-term complications and shown to be an independent predictor of 1-year mortality (P-value 0.02, odds ratio (OR) 5.37, confidence interval 1.34-21.5). CONCLUSION: Mitral regurgitation has a greater impact on TAVR patients than mitral stenosis as assessed by functional methods.

BACKGROUND: Vasopressor test (VPT) might be useful in patients with functional mitral regurgitation (MR) and left ventricular dysfunction (MITRA-FR-like patients) during transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER). AIMS: We aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of VPT. METHODS: MR treated with TEER were included in a multicenter prospective registry. VPT was used intraprocedurally in patients with left ventricular dysfunction and/or hypotension. The 1-year echocardiographic and clinical outcomes were compared according to the use of VPT. The primary endpoint was a combination of mortality + heart failure (HF) readmission at 1-year. RESULTS: A total of 1115 patients were included, mean age was 72.8 ± 10.5 years and 30.4% were women. VPT was performed in 128 subjects (11.5%), more often in critically ill patients with biventricular dysfunction. Postprocedurally the VPT group had greater rate of MR ≥ 2+ (46.9% vs. 31.7%, p = 0.003) despite greater number of devices (≥2 clips, 52% vs. 40.6 p = 0.008) and device repositioning or new clip in 12.5%. At 1-year, the primary endpoint occurred more often in the VPT group (27.3% vs. 16.9%, p = 0.002) as well as all-cause mortality (21.9% vs. 8.1%, p ≤ 0.001) but no differences existed in HF readmission rate (14.8% vs. 13.2%, p = 0.610), cardiovascular mortality (4.4% vs. 3.9%, p = 0.713) or residual MR ≥ 2+ (51.1% vs 51.7%, p = 0.371). CONCLUSIONS: Dynamic evaluation of MR during TEER procedure through VPT was performed in patients with worse baseline risk who also presented higher all-cause mortality at 1-year follow-up. However, 1-year residual MR, cardiovascular mortality and HF readmission rate remained comparable suggesting that VPT might help in the management of MITRA-FR-like patients.

BACKGROUND: The COAPT Trial was the first ever to demonstrate a survival benefit in treating functional mitral regurgitation (FMR). That was achieved through transcatheter mitral repair in selected patients. The exact proportion of patients fulfilling COAPT selection criteria in the real-world is unknown. AIMS: To assess the applicability of COAPT criteria in real world and its impact on patients' survival. METHODS: We assessed the clinical data and follow-up results of all consecutive patients admitted for FMR at our Department between January 2016 and May 2021 according to COAPT eligibility. COAPT eligibility was retrospectively assessed by a cardiac surgeon and a cardiologist. RESULTS: Among 394 patients, 56 (14%) were COAPT eligible. The most frequent reasons for exclusion were MR ≤ 2 (22%), LVEF < 20% or >50% (19%), and non-optimized GDMT (21.3%). Among Non-COAPT patients, weighted 4-year survival was higher in patients who received MitraClip compared to those who were left in optimized medical therapy (91.5% confidence interval [CI: 0.864, 0.96] vs. 71.8% [CI: 0.509, 0.926], respectively, p = 0.027). CONCLUSIONS: Only a minority (14%) of real-world patients with FMR referred to a tertiary hospital fulfilled the COAPT selection criteria. Among Non-COAPT patients, weighted 4-year survival was higher in patients who received MitraClip compared to those who were left in optimized medical therapy (91.5% [0.864, 0.96] vs. 71.8% [0.509, 0.926], respectively, p = 0.027).

BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive mitral valve repair has a favorable risk-benefit profile in patients with significant de novo mitral regurgitation. Its role in patients with prior mitral valve repair is uncertain. We aimed to appraise the outcome of patients undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with prior transcatheter or surgical mitral valve repair (SMVR). METHODS AND RESULTS: We queried the Italian multicenter registry on TEER with MitraClip, distinguishing naïve patients from those with prior TEER or (SMVR). Inhospital and long-term clinical/echocardiographic outcomes were appraised. The primary outcome was the occurrence of death or rehospitalization for heart failure. A total of 2238 patients were included, with 2169 (96.9%) who were naïve to any mitral intervention, 29 (1.3%) with prior TEER, and 40 (1.8%) with prior SMVR. Several significant differences were found in baseline clinical and imaging features. Respectively, device success was obtained in 2120 (97.7%), 28 (96.6%), and 38 (95.0%, P=0.261) patients; procedural success in 2080 (95.9%), 25 (86.2%), and 38 (95.0%; P=0.047); and inhospital death in 61 (2.8%), 1 (3.5%), and no (P=0.558) patients. Clinical follow-up after a mean of 14 months showed similar rates of death, cardiac death, rehospitalization, rehospitalization for heart failure, and their composite (all P>0.05). Propensity score-adjusted analysis confirmed unadjusted analysis, with lower procedural success for the prior TEER group (odds ratio, 0.28 [95% CI, 0.09-0.81]; P=0.019) but similar odds ratios and hazard ratios for all other outcomes in the naïve, TEER, and SMVR groups (all P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In carefully selected patients, TEER can be performed using the MitraClip device even after prior TEER or SMVR.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Presentation, outcome, and management of females with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) are undefined. We analysed sex-specific baseline clinical and echocardiographic characteristics at referral for DMR due to flail leaflets and subsequent management and outcomes. METHODS: In the Mitral Regurgitation International Database (MIDA) international registry, females were compared with males regarding presentation at referral, management, and outcome (survival/heart failure), under medical treatment, post-operatively, and encompassing all follow-up. RESULTS: At referral, females (n = 650) vs. males (n = 1660) were older with more severe symptoms and higher MIDA score. Smaller cavity diameters belied higher cardiac dimension indexed to body surface area. Under conservative management, excess mortality vs. expected was observed in males [standardized mortality ratio (SMR) 1.45 (1.27-1.65), P < .001] but was higher in females [SMR 2.00 (1.67-2.38), P < .001]. Female sex was independently associated with mortality [adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 1.29 (1.04-1.61), P = .02], cardiovascular mortality [adjusted HR 1.58 (1.14-2.18), P = .007], and heart failure [adjusted HR 1.36 (1.02-1.81), P = .04] under medical management. Females vs. males were less offered surgical correction (72% vs. 80%, P < .001); however, surgical outcome, adjusted for more severe presentation in females, was similar (P ≥ .09). Ultimately, overall outcome throughout follow-up was worse in females who displayed persistent excess mortality vs. expected [SMR 1.31 (1.16-1.47), P < .001], whereas males enjoyed normal life expectancy restoration [SMR 0.92 (0.85-0.99), P = .036]. CONCLUSIONS: Females with severe DMR were referred to tertiary centers at a more advanced stage, incurred higher mortality and morbidity under conservative management, and were offered surgery less and later after referral. Ultimately, these sex-related differences yielded persistent excess mortality despite surgery in females with DMR, while males enjoyed restoration of life expectancy, warranting imperative re-evaluation of sex-specific DMR management.

BACKGROUND: Currently, no clear impact of sex on short- and long-term survival following transcatheter edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (TEER) is evident, although no data are available on postprocedural life expectancy. Our aim was to assess sex-specific differences in outcomes of patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) treated by TEER. METHODS AND RESULTS: Short-term and 5-year outcomes in men and women undergoing TEER between 2011 and 2018 who were included in the large, multicenter, real-world MitraSwiss registry were analyzed. Outcomes were compared stratified by sex and according to MR cause (primary versus secondary). The impact of TEER on postprocedural life expectancy was estimated by relative survival analysis. Among 1142 patients aged 60 to 89 years, 39.8% were women. They were older, with fewer cardiovascular risk factors and lower functional capacity compared with men. Thirty-day mortality was higher in men than in women (3.3% versus 1.1%; odds ratio, 3.16 [95% CI, 1.16-10.7]; P=0.020). Five-year survival was comparable in both sexes (adjusted hazard ratio for 5-year mortality in men, 1.14 [95% CI, 0.90-1.44], P=0.275). Both men and women with either primary or secondary MR showed similar clinical efficacy over time. TEER provided high relative survival estimates among all groups, and fully restored predicted life expectancy in women with primary MR (5-year relative survival estimate, 97.4% [95% CI, 85.5-107.0]). CONCLUSIONS: TEER is not associated with increased short-term mortality in women, whereas 5-year outcomes are comparable between sexes. Moreover, TEER completely restored normal life expectancy in women with primary MR. A residual excess mortality persists in secondary MR, independently of sex.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The ideal surgical intervention for secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR), a disease of the left ventricle not the mitral valve itself, is still debated. We performed an updated systematic review and study-level meta-analysis investigating mitral valve repair (MVr) versus mitral valve replacement (MVR) for adult patients with SMR, with or without coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS: PubMed, CENTRAL and EMBASE were searched for studies comparing MVr versus MVR. Randomized trial or observational studies were considered eligible. Primary endpoint was long-term mortality for any cause. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were reconstructed and compared with Cox linear regression. Landmark analysis and time-varying hazard ratio (HR) were analyzed. Sensitivity analyses included meta-regression and separate sub-analysis. A random effects model was used. RESULTS: Twenty-three studies (MVr=3,727 and MVR=2,839) were included. One study was a randomized trial, and 19 studies were adjusted. The mean weighted follow-up was 3.7±2.8 years. MVR was associated with significative greater late mortality (HR=1.26; 95 % CI, 1.14-1.39; P<0.0001) at 10-year follow-up. There was a time-varying trend showing an increased risk of mortality in the first 2 years after MVR (HR=1.38; 95 % CI, 1.21-1.56; P<0.0001), after which this difference dissipated (HR=0.94; 95 % CI, 0.81-1.09; P=0.41). Separate sub-analyses showed comparable long-term mortality in patients with concomitant coronary surgery ≥90 %, left ventricle ejection fraction ≤40 %, and sub-valvular apparatus preservation rate of 100 %. CONCLUSIONS: Compared to repair, MVR is associated with higher probability of mortality in the first 2 years following surgery, after which the two procedures showed comparable late mortality rate.

BACKGROUND: Malnutrition is associated with poor prognosis in several cardiovascular diseases; however, its role in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) is poorly known. AIMS: To evaluate the impact of nutritional status, assessed using different scores, on clinical outcomes in patients with SMR undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in a real-world setting. METHODS: A total of 658 patients with SMR and complete nutritional data were identified from the MIVNUT registry. Nutritional status has been assessed using controlling nutritional status index (CONUT), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) scores. Outcomes of interest were all-cause mortality and all-cause mortality or heart failure (HF) hospitalization. RESULTS: Any malnutrition grade was observed in 79.4%, 16.7%, and 47.9% of patients by using CONUT, PNI, and GNRI, respectively, while moderate to severe malnutrition was noted in 24.7%, 16.7%, and 25.6% of patients, respectively. At a median follow-up of 2.2 years, 212 patients (32.2%) died. Moderate-severe malnutrition was associated with a higher rate of all-cause mortality (HR: 2.46 [95% CI: 1.69-3.58], HR: 2.18 [95% CI: 1.46-3.26], HR: 1.97 [95% CI: 1.41-2.74] for CONUT, PNI, and GNRI scores, respectively). The combined secondary endpoint of all-cause mortality and HF rehospitalization occurred in 306 patients (46.5%). Patients with moderate-severe malnutrition had a higher risk of the composite endpoint (HR: 1.56 [95% CI: 1.20-2.28], HR: 1.55 [95% CI: 1.01-2.19], HR: 1.36 [95% CI: 1.02-1.80] for CONUT, PNI, and GNRI scores, respectively). After adjustment for multiple confounders, moderate-severe malnutrition remained independently associated with clinical outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Moderate-severe malnutrition was common in patients with SMR undergoing TEER. It was independently associated with poor prognosis regardless of the different scores used.

BACKGROUND: Most patients undergoing the mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) technique are elderly comorbid patients. Low body mass index (BMI) < 23 kg/m2 has been identified in other elderly populations as a risk factor, but has not been studied sufficiently in mitral TEER. AIMS: We aimed to study the impact of low BMI (23 kg/m2) on the outcome after mitral TEER. METHODS: Patients undergoing first-time TEER for mitral regurgitation at a single tertiary center were included, with the exclusion of patients with preprocedural hemodynamic instability or missing BMI. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. Secondary endpoints were long-term major bleeding or admission with heart failure. RESULTS: A total of 120 patients (mean age 76 ± 10 years, 76% men) were included in the study. Thirty-nine (31%) had low BMI. Patients with low BMI had a similar symptomatic benefit as patients with BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2 at 1 year regarding decrease in diuretics dose and decrease in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class (p > 0.05). In a multivariable Cox regression analysis, BMI as a continuous variable (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.93 [95% confidence interval, CI: 0.87-0.99], p = 0.03) and low BMI (HR: 1.99 [95% CI: 1.12-3.52], p = 0.02) were associated with the primary outcome. Low BMI was not significantly associated with major bleeding (subdistribution hazard ratio [SHR]: 2.39 [95% CI: 0.96-5.97], p = 0.06) or admission with heart failure (SHR: 1.06 [95% CI: 0.61-1.88], p = 0.83) during follow-up with univariable competing risk regression analysis. CONCLUSION: Low BMI is a risk factor for mortality after mitral valve TEER, confirming the presence of an "obesity paradox" in this population and should receive attention in patient selection.

AIMS: Significant changes in tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and mitral regurgitation (MR) post-cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are increasingly recognized. However, uncertainty remains as to whether the risk of CIED-associated TR and MR differs with right ventricular pacing (RVP) via CIED with trans-tricuspid RV leads, compared with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), conduction system pacing (CSP), and leadless pacing (LP). The study aims to synthesize extant data on risk and prognosis of significant post-CIED TR and MR across pacing strategies. METHODS AND RESULTS: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases published until 31 October 2023. Significant post-CIED TR and MR were defined as ≥ moderate. Fifty-seven TR studies (n = 13 723 patients) and 90 MR studies (n = 14 387 patients) were included. For all CIED, the risk of post-CIED TR increased [pooled odds ratio (OR) = 2.46 and 95% CI = 1.88-3.22], while the risk of post-CIED MR reduced (OR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.58-0.94) after 12 and 6 months of median follow-up, respectively. Right ventricular pacing via CIED with trans-tricuspid RV leads was associated with increased risk of post-CIED TR (OR = 4.54, 95% CI = 3.14-6.57) and post-CIED MR (OR = 2.24, 95% CI = 1.18-4.26). Binarily, CSP did not alter TR risk (OR = 0.37, 95% CI = 0.13-1.02), but significantly reduced MR (OR = 0.15, 95% CI = 0.03-0.62). Cardiac resynchronization therapy did not significantly change TR risk (OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.55-2.17), but significantly reduced MR with prevalence pre-CRT of 43%, decreasing post-CRT to 22% (OR = 0.49, 95% CI = 0.40-0.61). There was no significant association of LP with post-CIED TR (OR = 1.15, 95% CI = 0.83-1.59) or MR (OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 0.72-2.39). Cardiac implantable electronic device-associated TR was independently predictive of all-cause mortality [pooled hazard ratio (HR) = 1.64, 95% CI = 1.40-1.90] after median of 53 months. Mitral regurgitation persisting post-CRT independently predicted all-cause mortality (HR = 2.00, 95% CI = 1.57-2.55) after 38 months. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that, when possible, adoption of pacing strategies that avoid isolated trans-tricuspid RV leads may be beneficial in preventing incident or deteriorating atrioventricular valvular regurgitation and might reduce mortality.

BACKGROUND: The clinical efficacy and safety of alcohol septal ablation (ASA) for obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) have been well-established; however, less is known about outcomes in patients undergoing preemptive ASA before transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR). AIMS: The goal of this study is to characterize the procedural characteristics and examine the clinical outcomes of ASA in both HCM and pre-TMVR. METHODS: This retrospective study compared procedural characteristics and outcomes in patient who underwent ASA for HCM and TMVR. RESULTS: In total, 137 patients were included, 86 in the HCM group and 51 in the TMVR group. The intraventricular septal thickness (mean 1.8 vs. 1.2 cm; p < 0.0001) and the pre-ASA LVOT gradient (73.6 vs. 33.8 mmHg; p ≤ 0.001) were higher in the HCM group vs the TMVR group. The mean volume of ethanol injected was higher (mean 2.4 vs. 1.7 cc; p < 0.0001). The average neo-left ventricular outflow tract area increased significantly after ASA in the patients undergoing TMVR (99.2 ± 83.37 mm2 vs. 196.5 ± 114.55 mm2; p = <0.0001). The HCM group had a greater reduction in the LVOT gradient after ASA vs the TMVR group (49.3 vs. 18 mmHg; p = 0.0040). The primary composite endpoint was higher in the TMVR group versus the HCM group (50.9% vs. 25.6%; p = 0.0404) and had a higher incidence of new permanent pacemaker (PPM) (25.5% vs. 18.6%; p = 0.3402). The TMVR group had a higher rate of all-cause mortality (9.8% vs. 1.2%; p = 0.0268). CONCLUSIONS: Preemptive ASA before TMVR was performed in patients with higher degree of clinical comorbidities, and correspondingly is associated with worse short-term clinical outcomes in comparison to ASA for HCM patients. ASA before TMVR enabled percutaneous mitral interventions in a small but significant minority of patients that would have otherwise been excluded. The degree of LVOT and neoLVOT area increase is significant and predictable.
