Risk factor and outcome (population) | Number of studies | Effect (95% CI) | Risk of bias | Imprecision | Indirectness | GRADE Quality |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mitral regurgitant volume per 10 mL on cardiac MRI for predicting mortality during follow-up Median follow-up 5.0 years (asymptomatic moderate or severe chronic organic MR; mean age 63 years) | 1 (n=258) | Adjusted HR: 1.10 (1.05–1.20)a | Very seriousb | None | None | LOW |
Mitral regurgitant volume per 10 mL on cardiac MRI for predicting indication for surgery during follow-up Median follow-up 5.0 years (asymptomatic moderate or severe chronic organic MR; mean age 63 years) | 1 (n=258) | Adjusted HR: 1.23 (1.06–1.29)a | Very seriousb | None | None | LOW |
MR volume ≤55 ml vs. >55 ml on cardiac MRI for predicting indication for surgery during follow-up Mean follow-up 2.5 years (asymptomatic moderate or severe chronic organic MR; mean age 64.8 years) | 1 (n=109) | Unadjusted HR: 0.20 (0.09 to 0.45)c | Very seriousb | None | None | LOW |
Methods: Adjusted for age, sex, and LVESVI on MRI.
Downgraded by 1 increment if the majority of the evidence was at high risk of bias, and downgraded by 2 increments if the majority of the evidence was at very high risk of bias
Methods: no multivariable analysis, unadjusted HR reported in the paper
