Predictors of post-operative cardiovascular events, focused on atrial fibrillation, after valve surgery for primary mitral regurgitation.

Abstract excerpt

Aims: Primary mitral regurgitation (PMR) can be considered as a heterogeneous clinical disease. The optimal timing of valve surgery for severe PMR remains unknown. To determine whether unbiased clustering analysis using dense phenotypic data (phenomapping) could identify phenotypically distinct PMR categories of patients. Methods and results: One hundred and twenty-two patients who underwent surgery were...
