However, researchers observed higher reintervention rates among those assigned to TAVR compared with surgery, largely due to increased incidence of aortic regurgitation (AR). 1771254000000 Articles and Stories /Latest-in-Cardiology/Journal-Scans/2026/02/09/18/56/Noninvasive-Predictors In patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR), low left atrial (LA) reservoir strain (LASr) and prior atrial fibrillation (AFib) intervention or LA appendage (LAA) ligation may predict low invasive LA compliance and limited V-wave reduction after transcatheter mitral valve therapy (TMVT)... 1770667920000 Articles and Stories
