In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether valsartan can slow the progression of atrial functional mitral regurgitation (AFMR) in adults with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. The study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of valsartan in this population. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does treatment with valsartan reduce the progression of atrial functional mitral regurgitation compared with placebo? * Does valsartan have favorable effects on mitral valve leaflet remodeling and related cardiac structure and function? * Is valsartan safe and well tolerated in patients with atrial functional mitral regurgitation who do not currently require angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers? Researchers will compare valsartan to a placebo (a look-alike substance with no active drug) to see if valsartan reduces the progr
