1 Early surgical intervention versus watchful waiting and outcomes for asymptomatic severe aortic regurgitation  Christophe de Meester, MS, Bernhard L. Gerber, MD, PhD, David Vancraeynest, MD, PhD, Anne-Catherine Pouleur, MD, PhD, Philippe Noirhomme, MD, Agnès Pasquet, MD, PhD, Gébrine El Khoury, MD, Jean-Louis Vanoverschelde, MD, PhD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 150, Issue 5, Pages (November 2015) DOI: /j.jtcvs Copyright © 2015 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Flow chart of the study population. AR, Aortic regurgitation; MR, mitral regurgitation; AS, aortic stenosis; LV, left ventricular; LVEDD, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension; GFR, glomerular filtration rate.

3 Figure 2 Kaplan–Meier survival curves comparing 10-year overall postoperative survival in patients undergoing early surgery (blue line) or initial medical management (red line). Survival in the overall population (A), propensity score–matched cohorts (B), and IPW-adjusted cohorts (C). Numbers at bottom indicate patients at risk. IPW, Inverse probability-weighted.

4 Figure 3 Kaplan–Meier survival curves comparing major cardiovascular events in initially asymptomatic patients with severe AR between those undergoing early surgery (blue line) and those managed conservatively (red line).

5 Figure 4 Kaplan–Meier survival curves comparing overall mortality in initially asymptomatic patients with severe AR managed conservatively, according to the regularity and quality of follow-up (yearly regular follow-up [red line], looser follow-up [brown line]).
