Objective: We aimed to evaluate the mitral valve calcification and mitral structure detected by cardiac computed tomography (cardiac CT) and establish a scoring model based on cardiac CT and clinical factors to predict early good mitral valve repair (EGMR) and guide surgical strategy in rheumatic mitral disease (RMD).
Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective bi-center cohort study. Based on cardiac CT, mitral valve calcification and mitral structure in RMD were quantified and evaluated.
Objective: To determine whether different changes of pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) after surgeries have an impact on the long-term outcomes in patients with rheumatic and degenerative mitral valve (MV) disease and atrial fibrillation.
Methods: Between 2004 and 2016, 1,188 patients with rheumatic and degenerative MV disease undergoing MV and Cox-Maze procedure were identified. Clinic outcomes, as well as rhythm state and echocardiography indices in long-term follow-up were recorded.
Background: Mitral valve stenosis (MS) is the primary pathologic feature of rheumatic mitral valve disease, and the complex repair affects its clinical outcome. This study aimed to examine the efficacy of the 4-step commisuroplasty "SCORe" procedure by assessing changes in the mobility of mitral valve leaflets and its clinical effects.
Methods: From September 1, 2018, to January 13, 2019, patients with MS who underwent mitral valve repair with the SCORe procedure in the study center were analyzed in this prospective study.
Background: To identify the association between tricuspid annular circumference and secondary tricuspid regurgitation and analyze the risk factors of recurrent tricuspid regurgitation after concomitant tricuspid annuloplasty during left heart surgery.
Methods: From October 2018 to June 2019, a total of 117 patients receiving concomitant tricuspid annuloplasty within left heart surgery were enrolled. Severity of tricuspid regurgitation was classified as 4 subtypes: normal, mild, moderate and severe.
Background: Many comparative studies of percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) and surgical mitral commissurotomy (SMC) in rheumatic mitral stenosis (MS) were done in the last few decades. With the development of valve repair techniques, various surgical rheumatic valve repair techniques have been applied in clinic, but there is a lack of comparison with PBMV. Our study was designed to compare the perioperative and mid-term outcomes of PBMV and mitral valve repair with "four-step" procedure in the treatment of rheumatic MS.

Methods: This study prospectively enrolled 633 patients who underwent isolated off-pump CABG from January 2019 to May 2019. Serum cTnI levels were measured in all patients at two examinations within 24 hours postoperatively (1 hour and 12-18 hours), and a proportional hazards model was used to determine the association between cTnI levels and their change with adverse events, which were defined as a composite of 30-day mortality, stroke, heart failure, myocardial infarction (MI), and ventricular fibrillation.
Background: This study assessed the role of surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF) in decreasing tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and right-sided heart remodeling in patients after mitral valve procedure.
Methods And Results: Between 1994 and 2014, 1568 consecutive patients with AF undergoing mitral valve procedure were identified. In 26.
