Echocardiography is a noninvasive imaging technique useful to provide clinical data
regarding physiological adaptations of athlete's heart. Echocardiographic characteristics …

Observing mitral or tricuspid valve disease in an athlete raises many considerations for the
clinician. Initially, the etiology must be clarified, with causes differing depending on whether …

Background Describing severity of mitral regurgitation (MR) in dogs with degenerative mitral
valve disease (DMVD) is challenging. Hypothesis/Objectives Mitral regurgitant fraction (RF) …

Importance Most patients with severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) are likely to
require surgery, but years can pass until there is a clear indication for it. The timing of mitral …

Background The authors describe a previously unreported Doppler signal associated with
mitral regurgitation (MR) as imaged using transthoracic echocardiography. Horizontal …

Background Transcatheter tricuspid valve edge‐to‐edge repair (TTEER) is associated with
improvement in outcomes for symptomatic patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) …

Background and aim The number of percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral regurgitation (MR)
valve repairs with MitraClip® implantations increased exponentially in recent years. Studies …

OBJECTIVES Degenerative mitral regurgitation is associated with heart failure, arrhythmia
and mortality. The impact of sex on timing of surgical referral and outcomes has not been …

This study evaluated the effects of mitral regurgitation (MR) on cardiac structure and function
in left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) patients. The clinical and cardiovascular magnetic …

Background Myxomatous mitral valve degeneration is a common cause of mitral
regurgitation and is often associated with mitral valve prolapse. With no known targets to …
