BP during treadmill test predicts risk of CV events, hypertension

Measuring blood pressure (BP) during rest, exercise, and recovery phases of exercise stress training (EST) can offer incremental prognostic information on the long-term risk for cardiovascular events and the probability for developing hypertension, suggests a recent study.

Adapted COAPT criteria tied to lower death rates in patients undergoing mitral edge-to-edge repair

A recent study has successfully identified a specific phenotype demonstrating reduced mortality rates in patients with secondary mitral regurgitation undergoing mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) by retrospectively applying the adapted COAPT* enrolment criteria.
