Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review it to summarize the current literature
on remodeling after myocardial infarction, inclusive of pathophysiological considerations …

Objectives To determine the factors influencing left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) area
reduction after a mitral valve‐in‐valve (VIV) or a valve‐in‐ring (VIR) procedure. Background …

Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has demonstrated the feasibility of treating
valvular heart disease with transcatheter therapy. On the back of this success, various …

Surgical implantation of a complete or incomplete ring to reduce the mitral valve annulus
and improve leaflet coaptation is the foundation of valve repair for degenerative and …

Background Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most serious and lethal manifestation of
coronary heart disease worldwide, presenting extremely high disability and mortality. Our …

Background The aim of this study was to compare treatment of moderate to severe
symptomatic mitral regurgitation (MR) with either conventional surgery or the mitral valve …

In literature, there are limited data comparing ischemic mitral regurgitation (I-MR) versus
nonischemic MR regarding outcomes after percutaneous “edge-to-edge” repair. We aimed …

Propolis, a traditional medicine, has been widely used for a thousand years as an anti‐
inflammatory and antioxidant drug. The flavonoid fraction is the main active component of …

Mitral valve regurgitation is a challenging clinical condition that is frequent, highly varied,
