From structural heart lesions to host burden: changing epidemiology and outcomes of native valve infective endocarditis, a nationwide study, 2006–2023

Native valve IE in Korea has shifted toward an elderly, multimorbid population with persistently high mortality. Despite declining utilisation, the survival benefit of surgery was preserved across the age spectrum, supporting operative consideration in appropriately selected older adults.
