Predictors of Long-Term Outcomes in Patients with Significant Myxomatous Mitral Regurgitation Undergoing Exercise Echocardiography.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with ≥III+ myxomatous MR undergoing ExEc, lower %age-gender predicted METS, lower HRR, atrial fibrillation, lower LV ejection fraction and high resting RVSP predicted worse outcomes. PMID: 24396041 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Importance of Exercise Capacity in Predicting Outcomes and Determining Optimal Timing of Surgery in Significant Primary Mitral Regurgitation Valvular Heart Disease
Conclusion In patients with primary MR that underwent exercise echocardiography followed by MV surgery, lower achieved metabolic equivalents were associated with worse long-term outcomes. In those with preserved exercise capacity, delaying MV surgery by ≥1 year did not adversely affect outcomes.

Incidence of cardiometabolic outcomes among people living with HIV-1 initiated on integrase strand transfer inhibitor versus non-integrase strand transfer inhibitor antiretroviral therapies: a retrospective analysis of insurance claims in the United States
CONCLUSIONS: Over a short average follow-up period of <2 years, INSTI use among treatment-naïve PLWH was associated with an increased risk of several cardiometabolic outcomes, such as CHF, myocardial infarction and lipid disorders, compared to non-INSTI use. Further research accounting for additional potential confounders and with longer follow-up is warranted to more accurately and precisely quantify the impact of INSTI-containing ART on long-term cardiometabolic outcomes.PMID:37306118 | DOI:10.1002/jia2.26123
