Results following valve replacement for ischemic mitral regurgitation.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Although several authors have favoured mitral repair in ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR), mitral valve replacement is a valuable option and most often a necessity in patients with structural IMR. OBJECTIVE: To review the authors' experience with valve replacement for patients with acute and chronic IMR. The effect of preserving the valve leaflets and the subvalvular apparatus during replacement was also evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The authors' experience with mitral valve replacement for IMR between 1990 and 1999 was retrospectively analyzed at the Montreal Heart Institute, Montreal, Quebec. Results obtained with mitral valve replacement due to degenerative disease were used for comparative purposes. RESULTS: Ninety-two patients with IMR and 213 patients with degenerative mitral regurgitation underwent valve replacement with mechanical prostheses (262 of 305 [86%]) or biological prostheses (43 of 305 [14%]). Fifteen patients (15 of 92 [16%]) died within 30 days of mitral valve replacement among IMR patients compared with eight (eight of 213 [4%)] among patients with degenerative mitral valve disease (P=0.01). The seven-year survival average following mitral valve replacement was 66+/-7% in patients with ischemic disease compared with 72+/-4% in patients with degenerative disease (P=0.07). Cardiopulmonary bypass time (odds ratio [OR] 1.01) and emergency operation (OR 2.5) were correlated with the 30-day mortality; the patient's age (OR 1.04) was the only risk factor correlated with the seven-year mortality after valve replacement. The five-year survival of patients with papillary muscle rupture averaged 59+/-12% compared with 78+/-7% in those with functional IMR. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative risk factors and higher early mortality in patients with mitral valve replacement for ischemic disease contribute to a lower seven-year survival than with mitral valve surgery for degenerative disease. The short and long term survival of the patients in the acute structural mitral disease subgroup was significantly worse.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
