TL;DR: Attempts to standardize options for all cardiac imaging modalities should be based on the sound principles that have evolved from cardiac anatomy and clinical needs, and selection of standardized methods must bebased on the following criteria.

TL;DR: A report from the American Society of Echocardiography’s Nomenclature and Standards Committee and The Task Force on Valvular Regurgitation developed in conjunction with the American College of Cardiology EchOCardiography Committee.

TL;DR: William A. Zoghbi, MD, FASE (Chair), David Adams, RCS, RDCS, Fase, Robert O. Bonow,MD, Maurice Enriquez-Sarano, MDs, Elyse Foster, Md, Fases, Paul A. Grayburn, MD-FASE, Rebecca T. Hahn,MD-MMSc, Yuchi Han, PhD, MMSc,* Judy Hung, MD.

TL;DR: The strength of the evidence that untreated subclinical thyroid disease is associated with clinical symptoms and adverse clinical outcomes was assessed and recommendations for clinical practice developed and insufficient evidence to support population-based screening was found.

TL;DR: Among patients with heart failure and moderate‐to‐severe or severe secondary mitral regurgitation who remained symptomatic despite the use of maximal doses of guideline‐directed medical therapy, transcatheter mitral‐valve repair resulted in a lower rate of hospitalization forHeart failure and lower all‐cause mortality within 24 months of follow‐up than medical therapy alone.
