- Abstract
Introduction: Ivabradine reduces heart rate (HR), episodes of angina, and nitrate consumption, and increases exercise capacity in patients with chronic angina (CA). In this exploratory study, myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) was used to evaluate changes in the percentage of myocardial ischemia after ivabradine therapy in patients with CA. Methods: This prospective, open-label, single-arm study included patients with CA receiving maximum tolerated doses of beta blockers, who had a resting HR ≥ 70 bpm and had experienced ischemia according to MPS during an exercise test at baseline. Participants received ivabradine 5 mg twice daily (titrated according to HR) concomitant with beta blockers. A second MPS was performed after 3 months, without interruption of treatment with beta blockers or ivabradine. The primary outcome was change in the percentage of myocardial ischemia from baseline to 3 months. Time to ischemia during the exercise test, the proportion of patients presenting angina during the exercise test, and health status, assessed using the seven-item Seattle Angina Questionnaire-7 (SAQ-7), were also evaluated. Results: Twenty patients (3 females) with a mean (± standard deviation [SD]) age of 62.2 ± 6.5 years were included in the study, of whom 55% had diabetes, 70% had previous myocardial revascularization, and 45% had previous myocardial infarction. The percentage of patients with myocardial ischemia significantly decreased from baseline to 3 months after initiation of treatment with ivabradine (− 2.9%; 95% confidence interval [CI] − 0.3 to − 5.5; p= 0.031). Mean time to appearance of ischemia increased from 403 ± 176 s at baseline to 466 ± 136 s at 3 months after initiation of ivabradine (Δ62 s; 95% CI 18–106 s; p= 0.008), and the proportion of patients experiencing angina during the exercise test decreased from 40% at baseline to 5% also at 3 months (p= 0.016). Mean resting HR decreased from 76 ± 7 bpm at baseline to 55 ± 8 bpm at 3 months (p< 0.001). The mean SAQ-7 summary score improved from 69 ± 21 at baseline to 83 ± 12 at 3 months (p= 0.001). No serious adverse effects were reported. Conclusion: Ivabradine added to beta blockers was associated with a reduction in detectable myocardial ischemia by MPS in patients with CA. Trial Registration: The trial has been retrospectively registered with the Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials (REBEC) under the following number RBR-5fysqrh (date of registration: 30 November 2023).

- Abstract
Background Total atherosclerotic plaque burden assessment by CT angiography (CTA) is a promising tool for diagnosis and prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) but its validation is restricted to small clinical studies. We tested the feasibility of semi-automatically derived coronary atheroma burden assessment for identifying patients with hemodynamically significant CAD in a large cohort of patients with heterogenous characteristics. Methods This study focused on the CTA component of the CORE320 study population. A semi-automated contour detection algorithm quantified total coronary atheroma volume defined as the difference between vessel and lumen volume. Percent atheroma volume (PAV = [total atheroma volume/total vessel volume] × 100) was the primary metric for assessment (n = 374). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) determined the diagnostic accuracy for identifying patients with hemodynamically significant CAD defined as ≥50% stenosis by quantitative coronary angiography and associated myocardial perfusion abnormality by SPECT. Results Of 374 patients, 139 (37%) had hemodynamically significant CAD. The AUC for PAV was 0.78 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.73–0.83) compared with 0.84 [0.79–0.88] by standard expert CTA interpretation (p = 0.02). Accuracy for both CTA (0.91 [0.87, 0.96]) and PAV (0.86 [0.81–0.91]) increased after excluding patients with history of CAD (p < 0.01 for both). Bland-Altman analysis revealed good agreement between two observers (bias of 280.2 mm 3 [161.8, 398.7]). Conclusions A semi-automatically derived index of total coronary atheroma volume yields good accuracy for identifying patients with hemodynamically significant CAD, though marginally inferior to CTA expert reading. These results convey promise for rapid, reliable evaluation of clinically relevant CAD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Di, and Lima, João A. C.
- Abstract
Combined CT angiography and CT myocardial perfusion enables similar prediction of 2-year major adverse cardiovascular event–free survival, including the need for myocardial revascularization procedures, similar to that achieved with standard invasive coronary angiography and single photon emission CT perfusion imaging.

The article presents a study which examined the diagnostic efficiency of 320-row detector computed tomography (CT) in detecting coronary artery luminal stenosis and its corresponding myocardial perfusion deficits in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. The method is compared with the gold standard of traditional coronary angiography and single-photon emission CT myocardial perfusion imaging. The aim of the study is to develop a new left ventricular segmentation model.

- Abstract
Appropriate clinical decisions concerning diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease rely on correct integration of data on coronary anatomy and myocardial perfusion. The purpose of this article is to introduce a new left ventricular segmentation model for improved alignment of coronary arterial segments and myocardial perfusion territories, designed for the CORE320 study.
