“…Amigoni et al [23] in 496 patients with left ventricular dysfunction during acute MI, demonstrated correlation between the grade of MR and end-diastolic or end-systolic left ventricular volumes, increased sphericity index and decreased LVEF at 1 year. Carrabba et al [17], similar to our results, showed that higher grade of ischemic MR assessed by ERO was an independent predictor of remodeling. In contrast, Ennezata et al [24] did not confirm that MR at discharge is a predictor of remodeling at 1 year but MR assessments at 3 months were able to predict.…”

“…Left ventricle dyssynchrony degree analyzed by Mollem et al [16] was found to predict remodeling. Carrabba et al [17] found that lower LVEF, lower LVEDV, and larger ERO at discharge and higher CKMB were independent predictors of remodeling in 184 patients with acute MI.…”

“…Annuloplasty is used in later stages of functional ischemic MR and seems to improve the prognosis in patients with end-diastolic left ventricular diameter < 65 mm [10]. Based on many reports ischemic MR is an independent and important risk factor of progressive adverse left ventricular remodeling and heart failure and therefore any patient after myocardial infarction should undergo periodic echocardiographic examinations targeted also at the assessment of MR and its dynamic component [4,5,11,12]. Pharmacological treatment of MR is based on the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and β-blockers [13].…”

“…As the size of the ageing population continues to increase, age‐related ischaemic heart diseases have become a primary contributor to mortality . Current treatments such as percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting have improved patients’ quality of life; however, long‐term cardiac function and survival in aged patients remain poor.…”
