<link>/Latest-in-Cardiology/Journal-Scans/2026/05/18/18/10/JACC-Journals-Science-From-EuroPCR-2026</link>                    <description>Findings from four late-breaking clinical trials presented at EuroPCR 2026 in Paris, France, were simultaneously published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions. Together they lend new insights into residual tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after tricuspid valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (T-TEER), the safety of transfemoral (TF) transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR), the novel BATMAN-TMVR technique, and the effect of implant depth on TAVR outcomes.</description>
