ABSTRACT: Background
The aim of this study was to characterize the burden of valvular heart disease (VHD)-related heart failure (HF) in Group of 20 (G20) countries.Methods and results
Using data from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study, we estimated VHD-related HF burdens (cases, age-standardized prevalence rates, and years lived with disabilities rates) in G20 countries from 1990 to 2019 by age, sex, and sociodemographic index. The burden of VHD-related HF increased in G20 countries from 1990 to 2019, exhibiting heterogeneity across VHD subtypes. In 2019, Italy, the United States, and the Russian Federation had the highest age-standardized prevalence rates of nonrheumatic VHD-related HF, whereas India, Brazil, and Mexico had the lowest. Rheumatic VHD-related HF was most prevalen
