Plus–minus values are means±SD. *BNP was measured in 58 of the 140 patients in the landmark-studied group and in 68 of the 164 patients in the not-included group, and NT-proBNP in 68 and 79 patients, respectively. ACEi: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. ARB: angiotensin receptor blocker; EROA: effective regurgitant orifice area; GDMT: guideline-directed medical treatment; IQR: interquartile range; LVEDV: left ventricular end-diastolic volume; LVESV: left ventricular end-systolic volume; NYHA: New York Heart Association; PASP: pulmonary arterial systolic pressure; STS: Society of Thoracic Surgeons; TVMR: transcatheter mitral valve repair
