Refining the prognostic impact of functional mitral regurgitation in chronic heart failure
Abstract
Aims: Significant efforts are currently undertaken to reduce functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in patients with chronic heart failure in the hope to improve prognosis. We aimed to assess the prognostic impact of FMR in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) under optimal medical therapy (OMT) and various conditions of HFrEF. We further intended to identify a heart failure phenotype, where FMR is most likely a driving force and not a mere bystander of the disease. Methods and results: We prospectively included 576 consecutive HFrEF patients into our long-term observational study. Functional [i.e. New York Heart Association (NYHA) class], echocardiographic, invasive haemodynamic, and biochemical (i.e. NT-proBNP, MR-proANP, MR-proADM, CT-proET-1, copeptin) measurements were performed at baseline. During a median follow-up of 62 months (interquartile range 52-76), 47% of patients died. Severe FMR was a significant predictor of mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 1.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.34-2.30; P < 0.001], independent of clinical (adjusted HR 1.61, 95% CI 1.22-2.12; P = 0.001), and echocardiographic (adjusted HR 1.46, 95% CI 1.09-1.94; P = 0.01) confounders, OMT (adjusted HR 1.81, 95% CI 1.25-2.63; P = 0.002), and neurohumoral activation (adjusted HR 1.38, 95% CI 1.03-1.84; P = 0.03). Subanalysis revealed that severe FMR was associated with poor outcome in an intermediate-failure phenotype of HFrEF i.e. patients with NYHA class II (adjusted HR 2.17, 95% CI 1.07-4.44; P = 0.03) and III (adjusted HR 1.80, 95% CI 1.17-2.77; P = 0.008), moderately reduced left ventricular function (adjusted HR 2.37, 95% CI 1.36-4.12; P = 0.002), and within the second quartile (871-2360 pg/mL) of NT-proBNP (adjusted HR 2.16, 95% CI 1.22-3.86; P = 0.009). Conclusion: In a patient cohort under OMT, the adverse prognostic impact of FMR is given predominantly in a sub-cohort of a specific intermediate-failure phenotype-well-defined functionally, haemodynamically, biochemically, and morphologically.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
