Article Synopsis
- Secondary mitral regurgitation (MR) worsens in 10-15% of heart failure patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), and transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with Mitra-Clip shows promise in improving outcomes for those who are CRT non-responders.
- A meta-analysis of 439 patients indicated that Mitra-Clip significantly reduced MR severity and improved symptoms in a majority of CRT non-responders within six months and one year post-procedure.
- The mortality rates for patients after undergoing TEER with Mitra-Clip were similar to those observed in previous studies, with 30-day, 6-month, 1-year, and 2-year mortality rates at
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a well-known complication following a transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with higher morbidity and mortality.
Objective: We aim to compare the risk of developing AKI after transfemoral (TF), transapical (TA), and transaortic (TAo) approaches following TAVR.
Methods: We searched Medline and EMBASE databases from January 2009 to January 2021.
Background: Heart block requiring permanent pacemaker (PPM) implantation is a relatively frequent complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
Objective: The purpose of this study was to perform a contemporary meta-analysis to provide an updated assessment of clinically useful predictors of PPM implantation post-TAVR.
Methods: Medline and EMBASE searches were performed to include all studies reporting PPM post-TAVR between 2015 and 2020.
Aims: Percutaneous mitral balloon valvotomy PMBV is an acceptable alternative to Mitral valve surgery for patients with mitral stenosis. The purpose of this study was to explore the immediate results of PMBV with respect to echocardiographic changes, outcomes, and complications, using a -analysis approach.
Methods: MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases were searched (01/2012 to 10/2018) for original research articles regarding the efficacy and safety of PMBV.
Current evidence regarding the benefit of preoperative embolization (POE) of meningiomas is inconclusive. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the safety profile of the procedure and to compare outcomes in embolized versus non-embolized meningiomas. PubMed was queried for studies after January 1990 reporting outcomes of POE.

We aimed to elaborate the relationship between CVA and LAA morphology in AF patients.
Methods: Medline and EMBASE databases were thoroughly searched between 2010-2018 for studies that included atrial fibrillation patients and classified them into two groups based on CVA occurrence.
