Trial summary

This retrospective multicenter cohort study aims to develop and validate an artificial intelligence model integrating electrocardiography (ECG) and chest radiography (CXR) to predict future progression of regurgitant valvular heart disease (rVHD), including aortic, mitral, and tricuspid regurgitation.

Key requirements

Study population: This study population was a retrospective multicenter, echo-phenotyped longitudinal cohort derived from routine clinical care. The development cohort was obtained from Zhongshan Hospital, Shanghai, China, and included consecutive adult patients receiving care between July 14, 2017 and December 31, 2023. An external validation cohort was obtained from a second center using the same eligibility framework. The cohort was anchored to routinely acquired ECG and CXR, with baseline echocardiography used to define prevalent valvular status and follow-up echocardiography used to determine progression to clinically significant regurgitant valvular heart disease.

Who may be able to join

  • Adult patients aged ≥18 years. Underwent routine electrocardiography (ECG), chest radiography (CXR), and echocardiography within 60 days.
  • Had subsequent follow-up echocardiographic data available for outcome ascertainment.
  • Patients were identified from routine clinical practice in inpatient admission or outpatient evaluation settings.

Who cannot join

  • Age below the adult threshold. Missing any of the required baseline examinations (ECG, CXR, or echocardiography within 60 days).
  • No follow-up echocardiographic data available. For future-risk evaluation in the test cohort, samples with moderate or severe regurgitation at baseline were excluded.

About this study

Official title: A Retrospective Cohort Study of Multimodal Electrocardiography and Chest Radiography for Prediction of Progression to Moderate or Severe Regurgitant Valvular Heart Disease

This retrospective multicenter cohort study aims to develop and validate an artificial intelligence model integrating electrocardiography (ECG) and chest radiography (CXR) to predict future progression of regurgitant valvular heart disease (rVHD), including aortic, mitral, and tricuspid regurgitation. Adult patients with ECG, CXR, and echocardiography obtained within 60 days, together with follow-up echocardiographic data, are included. The primary objective is to determine whether multimodal ECG+CXR modeling improves prediction of progression to moderate or severe regurgitation beyond ECG-only or CXR-only models. Secondary objectives include evaluation of clinical utility, risk stratification, and model interpretability. This study is intended to assess whether routinely acquired ECG and CXR can be used to support surveillance echocardiography and risk-directed management in patients at risk of future rVHD progression.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incident Regurgitant Valvular Heart Disease

    Incident regurgitant valvular heart disease was defined as new progression to moderate or severe aortic regurgitation, mitral regurgitation, or tricuspid regurgitation on follow-up echocardiography after the index ECG-CXR assessment. For each target valve, patients with no or mild regurgitation at baseline were considered at risk, and the first follow-up echocardiographic examination showing moderate or severe regurgitation was considered an incident event.

    Measured: Up to 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Valvular Heart Diseases and Valvular Heart Disease Stenosis and Regurgitation, run by Shanghai Zhongshan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incident Regurgitant Valvular Heart Disease (time frame: Up to 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 May 2026.
