Does functional mitral regurgitation predict 1-year mortality in elderly patients with systolic chronic heart failure?
This study establishes the direct and independent relationship between MR severity and one-year mortality among elders with systolic CHF. Conversely, MR does not provide useful information regarding the risk of subsequent hospitalization for worsening CHF.
Our experimental findings suggest that afatinib is especially effective against NSCLC carrying an EGFR exon 19 deletion.
