PURPOSE: Assess systemic vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF) levels after treatment with intravitreous aflibercept, bevacizumab or ranibizumab. DESIGN: Comparative-effectiveness trial with participants randomly assigned to 2-mg aflibercept, 1.25-mg bevacizumab, or 0.3-mg ranibizumab following a retreatment algorithm. PARTICIPANTS: Participants with available plasma samples (N=436) METHODS: Plasma samples were collected before injections at baseline, 4-week, 52-week and 104-week visits. In a pre-planned secondary analysis, systemic free-VEGF levels from an ELISA immunoassay were compared across anti-VEGF agents and correlated with systemic side effects. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in the natural log (ln) of plasma VEGF levels. RESULTS: Baseline free-VEGF levels were similar across all 3 groups. At 4 weeks, mean ln(VEGF) changes were −0.30±0.61, −0.31±0.54, −0.02±0.44 pg/ml for the aflibercept, bevacizumab, and ranibizumab groups, respectively. The adjusted differences between treatment groups (adjusted CI; P-value) were −0.01 (−0.12, +0.10; P=0.89), −0.31 (−0.44, −0.18; P

Objectives The goal of this study was to define the mechanism of preserved ejection fraction (EF) despite depressed myocardial strains in hypertension (HTN). Background Concentric left ventricular (LV) remodeling in HTN may have normal or supranormal EF despite depressed myocardial strains. The reason for such discordance is not clear. The aim of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the LV mechanics in a well-defined HTN population to define underlying reasons for such a paradox. Methods Sixty-seven patients with resistant HTN and 45 healthy control subjects were studied by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and tissue tagging with 3-dimensional analysis. Amplitude and directional vector of longitudinal (Ell), circumferential (Ecc), and principal strain for maximal shortening (E3) were computed at basal, mid, and distal LV levels, respectively. LV torsion, defined as the rotation angle of apex relative to base, and LV twist, which accounts for the effects of differential LV remodeling on torsion for comparison among the 2 groups, were also calculated. Results LV mass index and LV mass/LV end-diastolic volume ratio were significantly higher in the HTN group compared with controls, consistent with concentric LV remodeling. Ell and Ecc were significantly decreased in amplitude with altered directional vector in HTN compared with controls. However, the amplitude of E3 was similar in the 2 groups. Torsion and twist were significantly higher in HTN, which was mainly due to increase in apical rotation. The HTN group demonstrated significantly increased LV wall thickening compared with controls that resulted in greater LVEF in the HTN group compared with controls (70% vs. 65%, p Conclusions In compensated LV remodeling secondary to HTN, there is increased LV wall thickening with preserved E3 and increased torsion compared with normal controls. This, therefore, contributes to supranormal LVEF in HTN despite depressed longitudinal and circumferential strains.

The late-systolic murmur of mitral regurgitation (MR) in degenerative mitral valve disease is widely believed to represent regurgitation of a degree that is not associated with hemodynamic significance. However, the extent of left ventricular (LV) remodeling associated with the late-systolic murmur has not been systematically assessed. Accordingly, we studied 82 patients sent for evaluation of at least moderate isolated MR by echocardiography/Doppler examination. All patients had a physical examination and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to measure LV volumes by summation of serial short-axis slices. Forty-five patients had a pan-systolic murmur and 37 had a late-systolic murmur on auscultation that was verified by timing of onset of regurgitant turbulence by cine magnetic resonance imaging. Systolic blood pressures (124 +/- 3 versus 124 +/- 3 mm Hg) and LV ejection fraction (61 +/- 1% versus 61 +/- 1%) did not differ significantly between pan-systolic and late-systolic murmur groups. Although LV end-diastolic volume index was greater in the pan-systolic versus late-systolic murmur (108 +/- 4 versus 95 +/- 4 mL/m2, P = 0.007), both groups were significantly greater than normals (68 +/- 2 mL/m2, P0.0001). However, LV end-systolic volume index (42 +/- 2 versus 38 +/- 2 mL/m2) and LV end-systolic dimension (38 +/- 1 versus 37 +/- 1 mm), critical markers of adverse LV remodeling in isolated MR, did not differ significantly between pan-systolic and late-systolic murmur groups. In conclusion, the late systolic isolated MR murmur may be associated with significant adverse LV remodeling, and should not be considered evidence of hemodynamically unimportant MR.
