Abstract

Background: The assessment of coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) in left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) expands the risk stratification potential of stress echocardiography (SE) based on stress-induced regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA). Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and functional correlates of CFVR. Methods: This prospective, observational, multicenter study initially screened 3,410 patients (2,061 [60%] male; age 63 ± 11 years; ejection fraction 61 ± 9%) with known or suspected coronary artery disease and/or heart failure. All patients underwent SE (exercise, n = 1,288; vasodilator, n = 1,860; dobutamine, n = 262) based on new or worsening RWMA in 20 accredited laboratories of 8 countries. CFVR was calculated as the stress/rest ratio of diastolic peak flow velocity pulsed-Doppler assessment of LAD flow. A subset of 1,867 patients was followed up. Results: The success rate for CFVR on LAD was 3,002 of 3,410 (feasibility = 88%). Reduced (≤2.0) CFVR was found in 896 of 3,002 (30%) patients. At multivariable logistic regression analysis, inducible RWMA (odds ratio [OR]: 6.5; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.9 to 8.5; p < 0.01), abnormal left ventricular contractile reserve (OR: 3.4; 95% CI: 2.7 to 4.2; p < 0.01), and B-lines (OR: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.1 to 1.9; p = 0.01) were associated with reduced CFVR. During a median follow-up time of 16 months, 218 events occurred. RWMA (hazard ratio: 3.8; 95% CI: 2.3 to 6.3; p < 0.001) and reduced CFVR (hazard ratio: 1.5; 95% CI: 1.1 to 2.2; p = 0.009) were independently associated with adverse outcome. Conclusions: CFVR is feasible with all SE protocols. Reduced CFVR is often accompanied by RWMA, abnormal LVCR, and pulmonary congestion during stress, and shows independent value over RWMA in predicting an adverse outcome.

Abstract

Microvascular dysfunction (MVD) is associated with adverse prognosis and may account for abnormal stress tests and angina symptoms in women with cardiac syndrome X (CSX). The aim of our study was to assess MVD by coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) and left ventricular (LV) contractile function by LV global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) in CSX patients with respect to presence of slow coronary flow (SCF). It was of additional importance to evaluate clinical status of CSX patients using Seattle Angina Questionnaire.Study population included 70 women with CSX (mean age 61 ± 7 years) and 34 age-matched controls. CSX group was stratified into two subgroups depending on SCF presence: CSX-Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) 3- normal flow subgroup (n = 38) and CSX-TIMI 2- SCF subgroup (n = 32) as defined by coronary angiography. LVGLS measurements and CFVR of left anterior descending (LAD) and posterior descending (PD) artery were performed. CFVR-LAD and PD were markedly impaired in CSX group compared to controls (2.34 ± 0.25 vs 3.05 ± 0.21, p 0.001; 2.32 ± 0.24 vs 3.01 ± 0.13, p 0.001), and furthermore decreased in CSX-TIMI 2 patients. Resting, peak, and ΔLVGLS were all significantly impaired in CSX group compared to controls (for all p 0.001), and furthermore reduced in CSX-TIMI 2 subgroup. Strongest correlation was found between peak LVGLS and CFVR LAD (r = -0.784, p 0.001) and PD (r = -0.772, p 0.001). CSX-TIMI 2 subgroup had more frequent angina symptoms and more impaired quality of life.MVD in CSX patients is demonstrated by reduction in CFVR and LVGLS values. SCF implies more profound impairment of microvascular and LV systolic function along with worse clinical presentation.

Abstract

Various lung ultrasound (LUS) scanning modalities have been proposed for the detection of B-lines, also referred to as ultrasound lung comets , which are an important indication of extravascular lung water at rest and after exercise stress echo (ESE). The aim of our study was to assess the lung water spatial distribution ( comet map ) at rest and after ESE. We performed LUS at rest and immediately after semi-supine ESE in 135 patients (45 women, 90 men; age 62 ± 12 y, resting left ventricular ejection fraction = 41 ± 13%) with known or suspected heart failure or coronary artery disease. B-lines were measured by scanning 28 intercostal spaces (ISs) on the antero-lateral chest, 2nd–5th IS, along with the midaxillary (MA), anterior axillary (AA), mid-clavicular (MC) and parasternal (PS) lines. Complete 28-region, 16-region (3rd and 4th IS), 8-region (3rd IS), 4-region (3rd IS, only AA and MA) and 1-region (left 3rd IS, MA) scans were analyzed. In each space, the B-lines were counted from 0 = black lung to 10 = white lung. Interpretable images were obtained in all spaces (feasibility = 100 %). B-lines (>0 in at least 1 space) were present at ESE in 93 patients (69%) and absent in 42. More B-lines were found in the 3rd IS and along AA and MA lines. The B-line cumulative distribution was symmetric at rest (right/left = 1.10) and asymmetric with left lung predominance during stress (right/left = 0.67). The correlation of per-patient B-line number between 28-S and 16-S (R 2 = 0.9478), 8-S (R 2 = 0.9478) and 4-S scan (R 2 = 0.9146) was excellent, but only good with 1-S (R 2 = 0.8101). The average imaging and online analysis time were 5 s per space. In conclusion, during ESE, the comet map of lung water accumulation follows a predictable spatial pattern with wet spots preferentially aligned with the third IS and along the AA and MA lines. The time-saving 4-region scan is especially convenient during stress, simply dismissing dry regions and focusing on wet regions alone.

Abstract

Background The relations of elevated N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) and cardiac ischemia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients is uncertain. Therefore we designed the study with the following aims: (1) to analyze plasma concentrations of NT-pro-BNP in various subsets of HCM patients; (2) to reveal the correlations of NT-pro-BNP, myocardial ischemia, and diastolic dysfunction; (3) to assess predictors of the elevated plasma levels of NT-pro-BNP. Methods and results In 61 patients (mean age 48.9 ± 16.3 years; 26 male) with asymmetric HCM plasma levels of NT-pro-BNP were obtained. Standard transthoracic examination, tissue Doppler echocardiography with measurement of transthoracic coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) in left anterior descending artery (LAD) was done. Mean natural logarithm value of NT-pro-BNP was 7.11 ± 0.95 pg/ml [median value 1133 (interquartile range 561–2442) pg/ml]. NT-pro-BNP was significantly higher in patients with higher NYHA class, in obstructive HCM, more severe mitral regurgitation, increased left atrial volume index (LAVI), presence of calcified mitral annulus, elevated left ventricular (LV) filling pressure and in decreased CFVR. Levels of NT-pro-BNP significantly correlated with the ratio of E/e′ (r = 0.534, p

Abstract

Early experimental and clinical reports on glycogen phosphorylase BB (GPBB) kinetics following myocardial ischemic injury suggested that it could be a useful diagnostic marker for early detection of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). After more than two decades of investigation, there is now overwhelming body of evidence that do not support the use of GPBB measurement in diagnosis of acute AMI in patients presenting with acute chest pain. Currently, GPBB cannot be recommended as a diagnostic marker of AMI either as a stand-alone test or as an addition to (high-sensitive) troponin testing. It should be noted that these considerations apply to the early diagnosis of AMI, not to the prognostic stratification, which is also suggested but it warrants further investigation. The aim of this review is to summarize available evidence of GPBB measurement in early diagnosis of myocardial infarction.

Abstract

Patients in chronic phase of myocardial infarction (MI) have decreased coronary flow reserve (CFR) in infarct related artery (IRA) that is proportional to the extent of microvascular/myocardial damage. We proposed a novel model for the assessment of microvascular damage and infarct size using Doppler echocardiography evaluation of CFRs of the IRA (LAD) and reference artery (RCA).Our study included 34 consecutive patients (28 men, mean age 50 ± 11 years) with first anterior STEMI and single vessel disease successfully treated with primary PCI. All patients underwent SPECT MPI for the assessment of infarct size (expressed as a percentage of myocardium with fixed perfusion abnormalities) and CFR evaluation of LAD and RCA. CFR derived percentage of microvascular damage (CFR PMD) was calculated as: CFR PMD=(CFR RCA-CFR LAD)/(CFR RCA-1)×100 (%).CFR PMD correlated significantly with all parameters evaluating the severity of myocardial damage including: peak CK activity (r=0.632, p0.001), WMSI (r=0.857, p0.001), ejection fraction (r=-0.820, p0.001), left ventricular end diastolic (r=0.757, p0.001) and end systolic volume (r=0.794, p0.001). Most importantly, CFR PMD (22 ± 17%) correlated significantly with infarct size by SPECT MPI (21 ± 17%) (r=0.874, p0.001).CFR PMD derived from the proposed model was significantly related to echocardiographic and enzymatic parameters of infarct size, as well as to myocardial damage assessed by SPECT MPI in patients with successfully reperfused first anterior STEMI.

Abstract

To evaluate, by noninvasive coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR), whether patients with asymmetric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC), with or without left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, demonstrate significant regional differences of CFVR.We evaluated 61 patients with HC (27 men; mean age 49 ± 16 years), including 20 patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and 41 patients without obstruction (HCM). The control group included 20 age- and sex-matched subjects. Transthoracic Doppler echocardiography CFVR of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) and the posterior descending coronary artery (PD) were performed, including calculation of relative CFVR as the ratio between CFVR LAD and CFVR PD.Compared with the controls, all the patients with HC had lower CFVR LAD (2.12 ± 0.53 vs 3.34 ± 0.67; P.001) and CFVR PD (2.29 ± 0.49 vs 3.21 ± 0.65; P.001). CFVR LAD in HOCM group in comparison with the HCM group was significantly lower (1.93 ± 0.42 vs 2.22 ± 0.55; P = .047), due to higher basal diastolic coronary flow velocities (0.40 ± 0.09 vs 0.33 ± 0.07 m/sec; P = .002), with similar hyperemic diastolic flow velocities (0.71 ± 0.16 vs 0.76 ± 0.19 m/sec; P = .330), respectively. There was no significant difference in CFVR PD between patients with HOCM and those with HCM (2.33 ± 0.46 vs 2.27 ± 0.50; P = .636), respectively. Relative CFVR was lower in the HOCM group compared with the HCM group (0.84 ± 0.16 vs 0.98 ± 0.14; P = .001). By multivariable regression analysis, left ventricular outflow tract gradient was the independent predictor of CFVR LAD (B = -0.24; P = .008) and relative CFVR (B = -0.34; P = .016).CFVR LAD and relative CFVR were significantly lower in patients with HOCM compared with patients with HCM. Regional differences of CFVR are present only in patients with significant left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, which suggests that obstruction per se, by increasing wall stress in basal conditions, leads to higher basal diastolic coronary flow velocities and results in lower CFVR in LAD compared with PD.

Abstract

According to American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions 2005 guidelines on percutaneous intervention, intracoronary physiologic measurement in the assessment of effects of intermediate coronary stenoses in patients with anginal symptoms is a class IIa indication. This study assessed the additional prognostic value of Doppler echocardiographically derived coronary flow reserve (CFR) in patients with single-vessel disease and intermediate stenosis severity. We enrolled 86 patients (44 men; 66 +/- 10 years of age) with angiographically assessed single-vessel coronary artery disease of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) with quantitatively assessed diameter stenosis severity 50% to 75%. All patients underwent dipyridamole (up to 0.84 mg/kg over 6 minutes) stress echocardiography with wall motion analysis by 2-dimensional echocardiography and CFR evaluation of the affected artery by Doppler. All patients were followed up for a median of 14 months (first quartile 10, third quartile 18) after diagnostic coronary angiography (without percutaneous intervention for a clinically driven decision). Mean diameter stenosis of the LAD was 58 +/- 10%. Mean CFR of the LAD was 2.09 +/- 0.5. Regional wall motion abnormality at peak stress was present in 17 patients. During follow-up, 24 events occurred: 6 nonfatal ST-elevation myocardial infarctions and 18 non-ST-elevation myocardial infarctions. Thirty-month spontaneous event-free survival was higher in patients with normal CFR and lower in patients with decreased CFR (86% vs 30%, p = 0.0001). At Cox analysis, a CFR
