RESUMEN
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.

AIM: The aims of this study were: i) to report the prevalence of low-risk patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) undergoing mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) in a real-world setting; ii) to evaluate the prognostic significance of EuroSCORE II; iii) to determine whether an optimal M-TEER provides a mortality benefit regardless of EuroSCORE-II. METHODS: We analyzed data from the GIOTTO registry that enrolled patients undergoing M-TEER in Italy. We included only patients with DMR. Two groups were defined: patients with EuroSCORE<4% and with EuroSCORE≥4%. A further stratification according to variables included in the EuroSCORE-II was made. Interaction between EuroSCORE-II and optimal procedural success was evaluated. Outcome of interest was all-cause death at 2-year. RESULTS: Among 1659 patients prospectively enrolled in the GIOTTO registry, 657 had DMR, 364 with an EuroSCORE<4% (53%) and 311 with an EuroSCORE≥4% (47%). Patients with lower EuroSCORE were older with less comorbidities. All-cause mortality was higher in patients with EuroSCORE≥ vs <4%. EuroSCORE II ≥ 4% was independently associated with an increased risk of mortality (HR 2.36, 95%CI 1.28-4.38, p = 0.007). Among variables included in the EuroSCORE-II, Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction<35% and systolic Pulmonary Artery Pressure ≥ 50mmhg were independent predictors of clinical outcome. Two-year all-cause death was higher in patients without optimal MR reduction regardless of the calculated surgical risk (p for interaction 0.3). CONCLUSION: More than half of patients with DMR undergoing M-TEER had a Euroscore<4% with a median age of 81. An optimally successful M-TEER was associated with a lower mortality regardless of EuroSCORE.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: To assess the interaction between heart failure (HF) severity and optimal reduction of secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) on mortality in patients undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER). METHODS AND RESULTS: Among 1656 patients included in the Italian Society of Interventional Cardiology (GIse) registry Of Transcatheter treatment of mitral valve regurgitaTiOn (GIOTTO) 984 had SMR and complete data on advanced HF. Advanced HF was defined as NYHA class III or IV, left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 30%, and > 1 HF hospitalization during the last 12 months. Optimal M-TEER was defined as residual SMR ≤ 1 + at discharge. One hundred sixteen patients (11.8%) had advanced HF. Achievement of an optimal SMR reduction was similar in patients with and without advanced HF (65% and 60% respectively). Advanced HF was an independent predictor of 2-year all-cause death (adjusted HR 1.52, 95% CI 1.09-2.10). Optimal M-TEER, as compared to a no-optimal M-TEER, was associated with a reduced risk of death both in patients with advanced (HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.32-0.97; p = 0.039) and no-advanced HF (HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.46-0.78; p < 0.001; p = 0.778 for interaction). CONCLUSIONS: Advanced HF is associated with poor outcome in patients undergoing M-TEER. However, an optimal SMR reduction reduces the risk of 2-year mortality regardless of HF severity.
RESUMEN
Evidence regarding gender-related differences in response to transcatheter aortic valve implantation according to the valve type is lacking. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of gender on the treatment effect of Evolut PRO/PRO+ (PRO) or SAPIEN 3 Ultra (ULTRA) devices on clinical outcomes. The Comparative Analysis of Evolut PRO vs SAPIEN 3 Ultra Valves for Transfemoral Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (OPERA-TAVI) is a multicenter, multinational registry including patients who underwent the latest-iteration PRO or ULTRA implantation. Overall, 1,174 of 1,897 patients were matched based on valve type and compared according to gender, whereas 470 men and 630 women were matched and compared according to valve type. The 30-day and 1-year outcomes were evaluated. In the PRO and ULTRA groups, men had a higher co-morbidity burden, whereas women had smaller aortic root. The 30-day (device success [DS], early safety outcome, permanent pacemaker implantation, patient-prosthesis mismatch, paravalvular regurgitation, bleedings, vascular complications, and all-cause death) and 1-year outcomes (all-cause death, stroke, and heart failure hospitalization) did not differ according to gender in both valve groups. However, the male gender decreased the likelihood of 30-day DS with ULTRA versus PRO (p for interaction = 0.047). A higher risk of 30-day permanent pacemaker implantation and 1-year stroke and a lower risk of patient-prosthesis mismatch was observed in PRO versus ULTRA, regardless of gender. In conclusion, gender did not modify the treatment effect of PRO versus ULTRA on clinical outcomes, except for 30-day DS, which was decreased in men (vs women) who received ULTRA (vs PRO).
