However, information on the long-term risk of first-time IE after MV replacement or repair is lacking. The 10-year incidence of first-time IE was examined in patients undergoing MV replacement or repair, compared with those at moderate risk of IE.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Using Danish nationwide registries (2000\u20132020), the study population included patients undergoing isolated MV replacement or repair and patients at moderate risk of IE. The moderate-risk group included cardiac implantable electronic devices, congenital heart valve anomalies, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, rheumatic heart diseases, and non-rheumatic degenerative valve diseases. The Aalen\u2013Johansen estimator and cause-specific Cox regression models were used to determine the 10-year comparative incidences of IE.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>The study population included 1220 patients undergoing MV replacement, 3239 undergoing MV repair, and 209 517 at moderate risk of IE. The 10-year cumulative incidences of IE were 6.1% [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.8%\u20137.7%] for MV replacement, 1.6% (95% CI 1.1%\u20132.1%) for MV repair, and 1.7% (95% CI 1.6%\u20131.7%) for the moderate-risk group. Compared with the moderate-risk group, after multivariable adjustment, MV replacement was associated with a higher 10-year IE rate (hazard ratio 3.52, 95% CI 2.73\u20134.52), whereas MV repair was not associated with IE (hazard ratio 0.76, 95% CI 0.56\u20131.04).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>In this nationwide study, MV replacement was associated with a 3.5-fold increased 10-year IE rate, whereas MV repair was not significantly associated with IE, compared with patients at moderate risk of IE.
