Author: Anna-Gaëlle Giguet-Valard, Astrid Monfort, Hugues Lucron, Helena Mosbah, Franck Boccara, Camille Vatier, Corinne Vigouroux, Pascale Richard, Karim Wahbi, Remi Bellance, Elisabeth Sarrazin, and Jocelyn Inamo
Subjects: atypical progeroid syndrome, LMNA variant, coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, dilated cardiomyopathy, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: The likely pathogenic variant c.407A>T p.Asp136Val of the LMNA gene has been recently described in a young woman presenting with atypical progeroid syndrome, associated with severe aortic valve stenosis. We further describe the cardiovascular involvement associated with the syndrome in her family. We identified seven members with a general presentation suggestive of progeroid syndrome. All of them presented heart conduction abnormalities: degenerative cardiac diseases such as coronary artery disease (two subjects) and aortic stenosis (three subjects) occurred in the 3rd–5th decade, and a young patient developed a severe dilated cardiomyopathy, leading to death at 15 years of age. The likely pathogenic variant was found in all the patients who consented to carry out the genetic test. This diverse family cardiologic phenotype emphasizes the complex molecular background at play in lamin-involved cardiac diseases, and the need for early and thorough cardiac evaluations in patients with laminopathic progeroid syndromes.

Abstract: Summary: Background: Smoking cigarettes produces carbon monoxide (CO), which can reduce the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. We aimed to determine whether elevated expiratory CO levels would be associated with a worse prognosis in smokers presenting with acute cardiac events. Methods: From 7 to 22 April 2021, expiratory CO levels were measured in a prospective registry including all consecutive patients admitted for acute cardiac event in 39 centres throughout France. The primary outcome was 1-year all-cause death. Initial in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MAE; death, resuscitated cardiac arrest and cardiogenic shock) were also analysed. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05063097). Findings: Among 1379 patients (63 ± 15 years, 70% men), 368 (27%) were active smokers. Expiratory CO levels were significantly raised in active smokers compared to non-smokers. A CO level >11 parts per million (ppm) found in 94 (25.5%) smokers was associated with a significant increase in death (14.9% for CO > 11 ppm vs. 2.9% for CO ≤ 11 ppm; p 11 ppm was associated with a significant increase in MAE in smokers during initial hospitalisation after adjustment for comorbidities (odds ratio [OR] 15.75, 95% CI [5.56–44.60]) or parameters of in-hospital severity (OR 10.67, 95% CI [4.06–28.04]). In the overall population, CO > 11 ppm but not smoking was associated with an increased rate of all-cause death (HR 4.03, 95% CI [2.33–6.98] and 1.66 [0.96–2.85] respectively). Interpretation: Elevated CO level is independently associated with a 6-fold increase in 1-year death and 10-fold in-hospital MAE in smokers hospitalized for acute cardiac events.

Subjects: Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, Registry, Incidence, Recurrence, Lipid-lowering treatment, Prognosis, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Background and aims: Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) is increasingly better diagnosed and treatments can improve the cardiovascular prognosis. We evaluated the long-term cardiovascular risk of HeFH using the French REgistry of Familial hypERCHOLesterolemia (REFERCHOL). Methods: We studied HeFH patients diagnosed genetically and clinically by the Dutch Lipid Clinic Network (DLCN) criteria in all lipid clinics across the country and their 5-year risk of cardiovascular events (all fatal and non-fatal acute coronary, cerebral and peripheral arterial disease events, aortic valve replacement surgery) using the French national health data system. Results: The database comprised 3202 individuals, 2010 (62.8%) with genetically verified HeFH and 1192 (37.2%) a DLCN score ≥6. Of these individuals, 2485 (77.6%) were in primary prevention and 717 (22.4%) in secondary prevention. The incidence of cardiovascular events was 24.58 per 1000 person-years for the overall sample, 19.15 in primary prevention and 43.40 in secondary prevention. The incidence of myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and death was 16.32 per 1000 person-years for the overall sample, 12.93 in primary prevention and 28.08 in secondary prevention. The incidence of aortic valve replacement was 1.78 per 1000 person-years. In the overall sample, at inclusion, 41% were not treated for LDL cholesterol, 48% of these in primary prevention and 20% in secondary prevention and high-dose statins were used by only 24% of individuals, 15% of these in primary prevention and 45% in secondary prevention. Conclusions: The incidence of cardiovascular events in HeFH is high and lipid-lowering treatment is far from optimal. The cardiovascular risk of HeFH is underestimated and patients are inadequately treated.

Subjects: acute coronary syndrome, coronary artery disease, dyslipidemia, heart disease, HIV, Diseases of the circulatory (Cardiovascular) system, RC666-701
Abstract: Background It is unclear whether HIV infection affects the long‐term prognosis after an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The objective of the current study was to compare rates of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events after a first ACS between people living with HIV (PLHIV) and HIV‐uninfected (HIV−) patients, and to identify determinants of cardiovascular prognosis. Methods and Results Consecutive PLHIV and matched HIV− patients with a first episode of ACS were enrolled in 23 coronary intensive care units in France. Patients were matched for age, sex, and ACS type. The primary end point was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (cardiac death, recurrent ACS, recurrent coronary revascularization, and stroke) at 36‐month follow‐up. A total of 103 PLHIV and 195 HIV− patients (mean age, 49 years [SD, 9 years]; 94.0% men) were included. After a mean of 36.6 months (SD, 6.1 months) of follow‐up, the risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events was not statistically significant between PLHIV and HIV− patients (17.8% and 15.1%, P=0.22; multivariable hazard ratio [HR], 1.60; 95% CI, 0.67–3.82 [P=0.29]). Recurrence of ACS was more frequent among PLHIV (multivariable HR, 6.31; 95% CI, 1.32–30.21 [P=0.02]). Stratified multivariable Cox models showed that HIV infection was the only independent predictor for ACS recurrence. PLHIV were less likely to stop smoking (47% versus 75%; P=0.01) and had smaller total cholesterol decreases (–22.3 versus –35.0 mg/dL; P=0.04). Conclusions Although the overall risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events was not statistically significant between PLHIV and HIV− individuals, PLHIV had a higher rate of recurrent ACS.

Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: We examined trends in the MI incidence and age at MI diagnosis among adults living with HIV-1 between 2000 and 2009, by comparison with the French MI registries, by gender. Age standardized incidence rates and standardized incidence-ratios (SIRs) were estimated for individuals included in the French hospital database on HIV (n = 71 204, MI = 663) during three periods: 2000-2002, 2003-2005 and 2006-2009. Median ages at MI diagnosis were compared using the Brown-Mood test. Over the study periods, the absolute rate difference and relative risks were higher in women than in men in 2000-2002 and 2006-2009, with respective SIRs 1.99 (1.39-2.75) and 1.12 (0.99-1.27) in 2006-2009. The trends were different for men and women with a decreasing trend in SIRs in men and no change in women. In both sexes, among individuals with CD4 ≥500/μL and controlled viral-load on cART, the risk was no longer elevated. Age at MI diagnosis was significantly younger than in the general population, especially among women (-6.2 years, p

Abstract: Autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (ADH) is a human disorder characterized phenotypically by isolated high-cholesterol levels. Mutations in the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR), APOB, and proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) genes are well known to be associated with the disease. To characterize the genetic background associated with ADH in France, the three ADH-associated genes were sequenced in a cohort of 120 children and 109 adult patients. Fifty-one percent of the cohort had a possible deleterious variant in LDLR, 3.1% in APOB, and 1.7% in PCSK9. We identified 18 new variants in LDLR and 2 in PCSK9. Three LDLR variants, including two newly identified, were studied by minigene reporter assay confirming the predicted effects on splicing. Additionally, as recently an in-frame deletion in the APOE gene was found to be linked to ADH, the sequencing of this latter gene was performed in patients without a deleterious variant in the three former genes. An APOE variant was identified in three patients with isolated severe hypercholesterolemia giving a frequency of 1.3% in the cohort. Therefore, even though LDLR mutations are the major cause of ADH with a large mutation spectrum, APOE variants were found to be significantly associated with the disease. Furthermore, using structural analysis and modeling, the identified APOE sequence changes were predicted to impact protein function.

Subjects: lipodystrophy, lmna, cardiovascular disease, Cytology, QH573-671
Abstract: Variants in LMNA, encoding A-type lamins, are responsible for laminopathies including muscular dystrophies, lipodystrophies, and progeroid syndromes. Cardiovascular laminopathic involvement is classically described as cardiomyopathy in striated muscle laminopathies, and arterial wall dysfunction and/or valvulopathy in lipodystrophic and/or progeroid laminopathies. We report unexpected cardiovascular phenotypes in patients with LMNA-associated lipodystrophies, illustrating the complex multitissular pathophysiology of the disease and the need for specific cardiovascular investigations in affected patients. A 33-year-old woman was diagnosed with generalized lipodystrophy and atypical progeroid syndrome due to the newly identified heterozygous LMNA p.(Asp136Val) variant. Her complex cardiovascular phenotype was associated with atherosclerosis, aortic valvular disease and left ventricular hypertrophy with rhythm and conduction defects. A 29-year-old woman presented with a partial lipodystrophy syndrome and a severe coronary atherosclerosis which required a triple coronary artery bypass grafting. She carried the novel heterozygous p.(Arg60Pro) LMNA variant inherited from her mother, affected with partial lipodystrophy and dilated cardiomyopathy. Different lipodystrophy-associated LMNA pathogenic variants could target cardiac vasculature and/or muscle, leading to complex overlapping phenotypes. Unifying pathophysiological hypotheses should be explored in several cell models including adipocytes, cardiomyocytes and vascular cells. Patients with LMNA-associated lipodystrophy should be systematically investigated with 24-h ECG monitoring, echocardiography and non-invasive coronary function testing.

Subjects: Medicine, Science
Abstract: The effect of statins on all-cause mortality in the general population has been estimated as 0.86 (95%CI 0.79-0.94) for primary prevention. Reported values in HIV-infected individuals have been discordant. We assessed the impact of statin-based primary prevention on all-cause mortality among HIV-infected individuals.Patients were selected among controls from a multicentre nested case-control study on the risk of myocardial infarction. Patients with prior cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disorders were not eligible. Potential confounders, including variables that were associated either with statin use and/or death occurrence and statin use were evaluated within the last 3 months prior to inclusion in the case-control study. Using an intention to continue approach, multiple imputation of missing data, Cox's proportional hazard models or propensity based weighting, the impact of statins on the 7-year all-cause mortality was evaluated.Among 1,776 HIV-infected individuals, 138 (8%) were statins users. During a median follow-up of 53 months, 76 deaths occurred, including 6 in statin users. Statin users had more cardiovascular risk factors and a lower CD4 T cell nadir than statin non-users. In univariable analysis, the death rate was higher in statins users (11% vs 7%, HR 1.22, 95%CI 0.53-2.82). The confounders accounted for were age, HIV transmission group, current CD4 T cell count, haemoglobin level, body mass index, smoking status, anti-HCV antibodies positivity, HBs antigen positivity, diabetes and hypertension. In the Cox multivariable model the estimated hazard ratio of statin on all-cause mortality was estimated as 0.86 (95%CI 0.34-2.19) and it was 0.83 (95%CI 0.51-1.35) using inverse probability treatment weights.The impact of statin for primary prevention appears similar in HIV-infected individuals and in the general population.

Abstract: BackgroundWhile residual plasma viremia is commonly observed in HIV-infected patients undergoing antiretroviral treatment (ART), little is known about its subclinical consequences.MethodsThis cross-sectional study included 47 male, never-smoking, non-diabetic patients with ≥4 years of ART and controlled HIV-replication (HIV-viral load, VL ResultsNo significant differences were observed between viremia groups with respect to median ART-duration (9.6 years, IQR = 6.8-10.9), nadir CD4+T-cell (208/mm3, IQR = 143-378), and CD4+T-cell count (555/mm3, IQR = 458-707). Median adjusted inflammatory markers tended to be higher in patients with D- than UD-viremia, with differences in IL-10 being significant (p = 0.03). After adjustment on age, systolic blood pressure, and insulin resistance, mean cca-IMT was significantly lower in patients with undetectable (0.668 mm±0.010) versus detectable viremia (0.727 mm±0.015, p = 0.002). Cca-IMT was also independently associated with age and insulin resistance. Mean adjusted total c-IMT was no different between viremia groups (p = 0.2), however there was large variability in bifurcation c-IMT measurements.ConclusionsHigher cca-IMT was observed in patients with detectable, compared to undetectable, HIV-VL in never-smoking ART-controlled patients, suggesting that residual HIV viremia may be linked to atherosclerosis.

Abstract: Background: Animal studies have demonstrated that fetal exposure to high maternal cholesterol levels during pregnancy predisposes to aortic atheroma in the offspring. In humans, little is known about the consequences of this exposure on the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease later in life. We wanted to assess whether maternal/paternal inheritance of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) gene mutation could be associated with subclinical coronary atherosclerosis. Methods: We retrospectively included 1350 patients, followed in the French registry of FH, with a documented genetic diagnosis. We selected 556 age- and sex-matched pair of patients based on the sex of the parents who transmitted the FH gene mutation, free of coronary cardiovascular event, and with a subclinical coronary atherosclerosis evaluation assessed using coronary artery calcium (CAC) score. We performed univariate and multivariate analysis to assess the individual effect of parental inheritance of the FH gene mutation on the CAC score. Results: In the whole population, patients with maternal inheritance of FH gene mutation (n=639) less frequently had a family history of premature cardiovascular events (27.7% versus 45%, P P =0.02) than those with paternal inheritance (n=711). There was no difference in the prevalence of cardiovascular events between the two groups. In the matched subgroup, maternal inheritance was significantly associated with an increase in CAC score value by 86% (95% CI, 23%–170%; P =0.003), a 1.81-fold risk of having a CAC score ≥100 Agatston units (95% CI, 1.06–3.11; P =0.03), and a 2.72-fold risk of having a CAC score ≥400 Agatston units (95% CI, 1.39–5.51; P =0.004) when compared with paternal inheritance in multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Maternal inheritance of FH gene mutation was associated with more severe subclinical coronary atherosclerosis assessed by CAC score and may be considered as a potential cardiovascular risk factor.

Abstract: International audience; ObjectivesThis study aimed at investigating the additional contribution of coronary artery calcium (CAC) score to SAFEHEART (Spanish Familial Hypercholesterolemia Cohort Study) risk equation (SAFEHEART-RE) for cardiovascular risk prediction in heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).BackgroundCommon cardiovascular risk equations are imprecise for HeFH. Because of the high phenotype variability of HeFH, CAC score could help to better stratify the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD).MethodsREFERCHOL (French Registry of Familial Hypercholesterolemia) and SAFEHEART are 2 ongoing national registries on HeFH. We analyzed data from primary prevention HeFH patients undergoing CAC quantification. We used probability-weighted Cox proportional hazards models to estimate HRs. Area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) and net reclassification improvement (NRI) were used to compare the incremental contribution of CAC score when added to the SAFEHEART-RE for ASCVD prediction. ASCVD was defined as coronary heart disease, stroke or transient ischemic attack, peripheral artery disease, resuscitated sudden death, and cardiovascular death.ResultsWe included 1,624 patients (mean age: 48.5 ± 12.8 years; men: 45.7%) from both registries. After a median follow-up of 2.7 years (interquartile range: 0.4-5.0 years), ASCVD occurred in 81 subjects. The presence of a CAC score of >100 was associated with an HR of 32.05 (95% CI: 10.08-101.94) of developing ASCVD as compared to a CAC score of 0. Receiving-operating curve analysis showed a good performance of CAC score alone in ASCVD prediction (AUC: 0.860 [95% CI: 0.853-0.869]). The addition of log(CAC + 1) to SAFEHEART-RE resulted in a significantly improved prediction of ASCVD (AUC: 0.884 [95% CI: 0.871-0.894] for SAFEHEART-RE + log(CAC + 1) vs AUC: 0.793 [95% CI: 0.779-0.818] for SAFEHEART-RE; P < 0.001). These results were confirmed also when considering only hard cardiovascular endpoints. The addition of CAC score was associated with an estimated overall net reclassification improvement of 45.4%.ConclusionsCAC score proved its use in improving cardiovascular risk stratification and ASCVD prediction in statin-treated HeFH.

Abstract: International audience; Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-related myonecrosis is frequent and can affect the long-term prognosis of patients. To our knowledge, ticagrelor has not been evaluated in elective PCI and could reduce periprocedural ischaemic complications compared with clopidogrel, the currently recommended treatment. The aim of the ALPHEUS study was to examine if ticagrelor was superior to clopidogrel in reducing periprocedural myocardial necrosis in stable coronary patients undergoing high-risk elective PCI.Methods: The ALPHEUS study, a phase 3b, randomised, open-label trial, was done at 49 hospitals in France and Czech Republic. Patients with stable coronary artery disease were eligible for the study if they had an indication for PCI and at least one high-risk characteristic. Eligible patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to either ticagrelor (180 mg loading dose, 90 mg twice daily thereafter for 30 days) or clopidogrel (300-600 mg loading dose, 75 mg daily thereafter for 30 days) by use of an interactive web response system, and stratified by centre. The primary outcome was a composite of PCI-related type 4 (a or b) myocardial infarction or major myocardial injury and the primary safety outcome was major bleeding, both of which were evaluated within 48 h of PCI (or at hospital discharge if earlier). The primary analysis was based on all events that occurred in the intention-to-treat population. The trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02617290.Findings: Between Jan 9, 2017, and May 28, 2020, 1910 patients were randomly assigned at 49 sites, 956 to the ticagrelor group and 954 to the clopidogrel group. 15 patients were excluded from the ticagrelor group and 12 from the clopidogrel group. At 48 h, the primary outcome was observed in 334 (35%) of 941 patients in the ticagrelor group and 341 (36%) of 942 patients in the clopidogrel group (odds ratio [OR] 0·97, 95% CI 0·80-1·17; p=0·75). The primary safety outcome did not differ between the two groups, but minor bleeding events were more frequently observed with ticagrelor than clopidogrel at 30 days (105 [11%] of 941 patients in the ticagrelor group vs 71 [8%] of 942 patients in the clopidogrel group; OR 1·54, 95% CI 1·12-2·11; p=0·0070).Interpretation: Ticagrelor was not superior to clopidogrel in reducing periprocedural myocardial necrosis after elective PCI and did not cause an increase in major bleeding, but did increase the rate of minor bleeding at 30 days. These results support the use of clopidogrel as the standard of care for elective PCI.Funding: ACTION Study Group and AstraZeneca.

Abstract: International audience; An increasing number of studies of left ventricular myocardial deformation have been published. Layer-specific strain using speckle tracking echocardiography to evaluate left ventricular function is not recommended in clinical practice. However, evaluation of myocardial mechanics using longitudinal and circumferential layer-specific strain enables the detection of subclinical impairment of myocardial deformation in various diseases. Unfortunately, normal values for longitudinal and circumferential strain have not been clearly defined. In normal subjects, layer-specific strain decreases from the endocardial to the epicardial layer, and from the apex to the base of the left ventricle. Although various studies have tried to define normal values for each layer in healthy subjects, studies with more subjects are needed. This tool has good reproducibility in terms of intraobserver and interobserver variability, but, as with monolayer strain, it has poor intervendor variability. Efforts that aim for standardization between vendors will be required before widespread use of this technique can be advocated.

Abstract: In patients admitted for acute myocardial infarction, the communication and transition from specialists to primary care physicians is often delayed, and the information imparted to subsequent healthcare providers (HCPs) may be sub-optimal. A French group of cardiologists, lipidologists and diabetologists decided to establish a consensus to optimize the discharge letter after hospitalization for acute myocardial infarction. The aim is to improve both the timeframe and the quality of the content transmitted to subsequent HCPs, including information regarding baseline assessment, procedures during hospitalization, residual risk, discharge treatments, therapeutic targets and follow-up recommendations in compliance with European Society of Cardiology guidelines. A consensus was obtained regarding a template discharge letter, to be released within two days after patient’s discharge, and containing the description of the patient’s history, risk factors, acute management, risk assessment, discharge treatments and follow-up pathway. Specifically for post acute MI patients, tailored details are necessary regarding the antithrombotic regimen, lipid-lowering and anti-diabetic treatments, including therapeutic targets. Lastly, the follow-up pathway needs to be precisely mentioned in the discharge letter. Additional information such as technical descriptions, imaging, and quality indicators may be provided separately. A template for a standardized discharge letter based on 8 major headings could be useful for implementation in routine practice and help to improve the quality and timing of information transmission between HCPs after acute MI.

Abstract: Background People living with HIV (PLHIV) are at increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and prone to statin-related adverse events from drug-drug interactions with certain antiretroviral regimens. Objectives This study sought to evaluate the efficacy and safety of evolocumab in dyslipidemic PLHIV. Methods BEIJERINCK is a randomized, double-blind, multinational trial comparing monthly subcutaneous evolocumab 420 mg with placebo in PLHIV with hypercholesterolemia/mixed dyslipidemia taking maximally-tolerated statin therapy. The primary endpoint was the percent change (baseline to week 24) in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C); secondary endpoints included achievement of LDL-C Results A total of 464 patients were analyzed (mean age of 56.4 years, 82.5% male, mean duration with HIV of 17.4 years). ASCVD was documented in 35.6% of patients, and statin intolerance/contraindications to statin use were present in 20.7% of patients. Evolocumab reduced LDL-C by 56.9% (95% CI: 61.6%, 52.3%) from baseline to week 24 versus placebo. An LDL-C level of Conclusions Evolocumab was safe and significantly reduced lipid levels in dyslipidemic PLHIV on maximally-tolerated statin therapy. Evolocumab is an effective therapy for lowering atherogenic lipoproteins in PLHIV with high cardiovascular risk.

Abstract: People with HIV (PWH) are at an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Suboptimal responses to statin therapy in PWH may result from antiretroviral therapies (ARTs). This open-label extension study aimed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of evolocumab up to 52 weeks in PWH.This final analysis of a multinational, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized phase 3 trial evaluated the effect of monthly subcutaneous evolocumab 420 mg on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) during the open-label period (OLP) following 24 weeks of double-blind period in PWH with hypercholesterolemia/mixed dyslipidemia. All participants enrolled had elevated LDL-C or nonhigh-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) and were on stable maximally tolerated statin and stable ART.Efficacy was assessed by percentage change from baseline in LDL-C, triglycerides, and atherogenic lipoproteins. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were examined.Of the 467 participants randomized in the double-blind period, 451 (96.6%) received at least one dose of evolocumab during the OLP (mean age of 56.4 years, 82.5% male, mean duration with HIV of 17.4 years). By the end of the 52-week OLP, the overall mean (SD) percentage change in LDL-C from baseline was -57.8% (22.8%). Evolocumab also reduced triglycerides, atherogenic lipid parameters (non-HDL-C, apolipoprotein B, total cholesterol, very-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and lipoprotein[a]), and increased HDL-C. TEAEs were similar between placebo and evolocumab during the OLP.Long-term administration of evolocumab lowered LDL-C and non-HDL-C, allowing more PWH to achieve recommended lipid goals with no serious adverse events.NCT02833844.http://links.lww.com/QAD/C441.

Abstract: International audience; Lipoprotein(a) is an apolipoprotein B100-containing low-density lipoprotein-like particle that is rich in cholesterol, and is associated with a second major protein, apolipoprotein(a). Apolipoprotein(a) possesses structural similarity to plasminogen but lacks fibrinolytic activity. As a consequence of its composite structure, lipoprotein(a) may: (1) elicit a prothrombotic/antifibrinolytic action favouring clot stability; and (2) enhance atherosclerosis progression via its propensity for retention in the arterial intima, with deposition of its cholesterol load at sites of plaque formation. Equally, lipoprotein(a) may induce inflammation and calcification in the aortic leaflet valve interstitium, leading to calcific aortic valve stenosis. Experimental, epidemiological and genetic evidence support the contention that elevated concentrations of lipoprotein(a) are causally related to atherothrombotic risk and equally to calcific aortic valve stenosis. The plasma concentration of lipoprotein(a) is principally determined by genetic factors, is not influenced by dietary habits, remains essentially constant over the lifetime of a given individual and is the most powerful variable for prediction of lipoprotein(a)-associated cardiovascular risk. However, major interindividual variations (up to 1000-fold) are characteristic of lipoprotein(a) concentrations. In this context, lipoprotein(a) assays, although currently insufficiently standardized, are of considerable interest, not only in stratifying cardiovascular risk, but equally in the clinical follow-up of patients treated with novel lipid-lowering therapies targeted at lipoprotein(a) (e.g. antiapolipoprotein(a) antisense oligonucleotides and small interfering ribonucleic acids) that markedly reduce circulating lipoprotein(a) concentrations. We recommend that lipoprotein(a) be measured once in subjects at high cardiovascular risk with premature coronary heart disease, in familial hypercholesterolaemia, in those with a family history of coronary heart disease and in those with recurrent coronary heart disease despite lipid-lowering treatment. Because of its clinical relevance, the cost of lipoprotein(a) testing should be covered by social security and health authorities.

Abstract: Cardiac chamber remodeling in atrial fibrillation (AF) reflects the progression of cardiac rhythm and may affect functional regurgitation.The purpose of this study was to explore the 3-dimensional echocardiographic variables of cardiac cavity remodeling and the impact on functional regurgitation in patients with AF with/without sinus rhythm restoration at 12 months.A total of 117 consecutive patients hospitalized for AF were examined using serial 3-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography at admission, at 6 months, and at 12 months (337 examinations).During follow-up, 47 patients with active restoration of sinus rhythm (SR) (through cardioversion and/or ablation) had a decrease in all atrial indexed volumes (Vi), end-systolic (ES) right ventricular (RV) Vi, an increase in end-diastolic (ED) left ventricular Vi, and an improvement in 4-chambers function (P 0.05). Patients with absence/failure of restoration of SR (n = 39) had an increase in ED left atrial Vi and ED/ES RV Vi without modification of 4-chambers function, except for a decrease in left atrial emptying fraction (P 0.05). Patients with spontaneous restoration of SR (n = 31) had no changes in Vi or function. The authors found an improvement vs baseline in severity of functional regurgitation in patients with active restoration of SR (tricuspid and mitral regurgitation) and in spontaneous restoration of SR (tricuspid regurgitation) (P 0.05). In multivariable analysis, right atrial and/or left atrial reverse remodeling exclusively correlated with intervention (cardioversion and/or ablation) during 12-month follow-up.Management of AF should focus on restoration of SR to induce anatomical (all atrial Vi, ES RV Vi) and/or functional (4 chambers) cardiac cavity reverse remodeling and reduce severity of functional regurgitation.

Abstract: Background An increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) was reported in patients coinfected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), without identifying factors associated with atherosclerotic CVD (ASCVD) events. Methods HIV-HCV coinfected patients were enrolled in the Agence Nationale de Recherches sur le Sida et les hépatites virales (ANRS) CO13 HEPAVIH nationwide cohort. Primary outcome was total ASCVD events. Secondary outcomes were coronary and/or cerebral ASCVD events, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) ASCVD events. Incidences were estimated using the Aalen-Johansen method. Factors associated with ASCVD were identified using cause-specific Cox proportional hazards models. Results At baseline, median age of the study population (N = 1213) was 45.4 (interquartile range [IQR] 42.1−49.0) years and 70.3% were men. After a median follow-up of 5.1 (IQR 3.9−7.0) years, the incidence was 6.98 (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.19−9.38) per 1000 person-years for total ASCVD events, 4.01 (2.78−6.00) for coronary and/or cerebral events, and 3.17 (2.05−4.92) for PAD ASCVD events. Aging (hazard ratio [HR] 1.06; 95% CI, 1.01−1.12), prior CVD (HR 8.48; 95% CI, 3.14−22.91), high total cholesterol (HR 1.43; 95% CI, 1.11−1.83), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HR 0.22; 95% CI, 0.08−0.63), statin use (HR 3.31; 95% CI, 1.31−8.38), and high alcohol intake (HR 3.18; 95% CI, 1.35−7.52) were independently associated with total ASCVD events, whereas undetectable baseline viral load (HR 0.41, 95% CI, 0.18−0.96) was associated with coronary and/or cerebral events. Conclusions HIV-HCV coinfected patients experienced a high incidence of ASCVD events. Some traditional cardiovascular risk factors were the main determinants of ASCVD. Controlling cholesterol abnormalities and maintaining undetectable HIV RNA are essential to control cardiovascular risk.

Abstract: Digital, Background Guidelines recommend nonstatin lipid-lowering agents in patients at very high risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) if low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) remains ≥70 mg/dL on maximum tolerated statin treatment. It is uncertain if this approach benefits patients with LDL-C near 70 mg/dL. Lipoprotein(a) levels may influence residual risk. Objectives In a post hoc analysis of the ODYSSEY Outcomes (Evaluation of Cardiovascular Outcomes After an Acute Coronary Syndrome During Treatment With Alirocumab) trial, the authors evaluated the benefit of adding the proprotein subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibitor alirocumab to optimized statin treatment in patients with LDL-C levels near 70 mg/dL. Effects were evaluated according to concurrent lipoprotein(a) levels. Methods ODYSSEY Outcomes compared alirocumab with placebo in 18,924 patients with recent acute coronary syndromes receiving optimized statin treatment. In 4,351 patients (23.0%), screening or randomization LDL-C was 13.7 mg/dL or ≤13.7 mg/dL; corresponding adjusted treatment hazard ratios were 0.82 (95% CI: 0.72-0.92) and 0.89 (95% CI: 0.75-1.06), with Pinteraction = 0.43. Conclusions In patients with recent acute coronary syndromes and LDL-C near 70 mg/dL on optimized statin therapy, proprotein subtilisin/kexin type 9 inhibition provides incremental clinical benefit only when lipoprotein(a) concentration is at least mildly elevated.

Abstract: Background: An accurate estimation of the risk of life-threatening (LT) ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VTA) in patients with LMNA mutations is crucial to select candidates for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation. Methods: We included 839 adult patients with LMNA mutations, including 660 from a French nationwide registry in the development sample, and 179 from other countries, referred to 5 tertiary centers for cardiomyopathies, in the validation sample. LTVTA was defined as (1) sudden cardiac death or (2) implantable cardioverter defibrillator–treated or hemodynamically unstable VTA. The prognostic model was derived using the Fine-Gray regression model. The net reclassification was compared with current clinical practice guidelines. The results are presented as means (SD) or medians [interquartile range]. Results: We included 444 patients, 40.6 (14.1) years of age, in the derivation sample and 145 patients, 38.2 (15.0) years, in the validation sample, of whom 86 (19.3%) and 34 (23.4%) experienced LTVTA over 3.6 [1.0–7.2] and 5.1 [2.0–9.3] years of follow-up, respectively. Predictors of LTVTA in the derivation sample were: male sex, nonmissense LMNA mutation, first degree and higher atrioventricular block, nonsustained ventricular tachycardia, and left ventricular ejection fraction (https://lmna-risk-vta.fr). In the derivation sample, C-index (95% CI) of the model was 0.776 (0.711–0.842), and the calibration slope 0.827. In the external validation sample, the C-index was 0.800 (0.642–0.959), and the calibration slope was 1.082 (95% CI, 0.643–1.522). A 5-year estimated risk threshold ≥7% predicted 96.2% of LTVTA and net reclassified 28.8% of patients with LTVTA in comparison with the guidelines-based approach. Conclusions: In comparison with the current standard of care, this risk prediction model for LTVTA in laminopathies significantly facilitated the choice of candidates for implantable cardioverter defibrillators.

Abstract: Resume La mortalite cardiovasculaire et le risque de complications au decours d’un syndrome coronaire aigu ont largement diminue avec l’avenement de l’angioplastie primaire et ses progres techniques. Neanmoins, malgre un traitement medical optimal, associant en particulier differentes strategies antithrombotiques, et une compliance adequate avec la prise en charge de l’ensemble des facteurs de risque cardiovasculaire, les recurrences ischemiques restent frequentes et emaillent le pronostic de la maladie coronaire. Ainsi, le pronostic des patients apparait lie a la severite et la prise en charge de l’evenement ischemique initial, mais surtout a la progression de la maladie atheromateuse aussi bien coronaire qu’au niveau d’autres localisations, cerebrale ou peripherique. Les objectifs de cette revue sont de definir le risque ischemique persistant apres un premier evenement coronaire, son incidence, ses facteurs de risque et les differentes strategies antithrombotiques pour tenter d’en limiter l’impact et d’individualiser la prise en charge. © 2019 Elsevier Masson SAS.

Abstract: Background The European Atherosclerosis Society Familial Hypercholesterolaemia Studies Collaboration (FHSC) global registry provides a platform for the global surveillance of familial hypercholesterolaemia through harmonisation and pooling of multinational data. In this study, we aimed to characterise the adult population with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia and described how it is detected and managed globally. Methods Using FHSC global registry data, we did a cross-sectional assessment of adults (aged 18 years or older) with a clinical or genetic diagnosis of probable or definite heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia at the time they were entered into the registries. Data were assessed overall and by WHO regions, sex, and index versus non-index cases. Findings Of the 61 612 individuals in the registry, 42 167 adults (21 999 [53.6%] women) from 56 countries were included in the study. Of these, 31 798 (75.4%) were diagnosed with the Dutch Lipid Clinic Network criteria, and 35 490 (84.2%) were from the WHO region of Europe. Median age of participants at entry in the registry was 46.2 years (IQR 34.3-58.0); median age at diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolaemia was 44.4 years (32.5-56.5), with 40.2% of participants younger than 40 years when diagnosed. Prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors increased progressively with age and varied by WHO region. Prevalence of coronary disease was 17.4% (2.1% for stroke and 5.2% for peripheral artery disease), increasing with concentrations of untreated LDL cholesterol, and was about two times lower in women than in men. Among patients receiving lipid-lowering medications, 16 803 (81.1%) were receiving statins and 3691 (21.2%) were on combination therapy, with greater use of more potent lipid-lowering medication in men than in women. Median LDL cholesterol was 5.43 mmol/L (IQR 4.32-6.72) among patients not taking lipid-lowering medications and 4.23 mmol/L (3.20-5.66) among those taking them. Among patients taking lipid-lowering medications, 2.7% had LDL cholesterol lower than 1.8 mmol/L; the use of combination therapy, particularly with three drugs and with proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 inhibitors, was associated with a higher proportion and greater odds of having LDL cholesterol lower than 1.8 mmol/L. Compared with index cases, patients who were non-index cases were younger, with lower LDL cholesterol and lower prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular diseases (all p, Pfizer Independent Grant for Learning Change [16157823]; Amgen; Merck Sharp Dohme; Sanofi-Aventis; Daiichi Sankyo; Regeneron; National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Imperial Biomedical Research Centre, UK; NIHR; Czech Ministry of Health [NU20-02-00261]; Canadian Institutes of Health Research; Austrian Heart Foundation; Tyrolean Regional Government; Gulf Heart Association, The EAS FHSC is an academic initiative that has received funding from a Pfizer Independent Grant for Learning & Change 2014 (16157823) and from investigator-initiated research grants to the European Atherosclerosis Society-Imperial College London from Amgen, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Sanofi-Aventis, Daiichi Sankyo, and Regeneron.

Abstract: Introduction: The natural history of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and right heart chambers remodeling in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) according to the cardiac rhythm at mid-term follow-up has been poorly assessed. Hypothesis: Restoration of sinus rhythm in AF patients is beneficial to the remodeling of right heart chambers and decrease in TR severity. Methods: We prospectively and serially evaluated 24 consecutive patients hospitalized for AF using three dimensional (3D) transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) at admission (M0) and every 6 months during a 2 years-follow-up (FU, M6, M12, M18, M24) (120 TTE exams). Patients were divided into two groups according to their cardiac rhythm at M24: restoration to SR (SR group, n=14) and persistence of AF (AF group, n=10). TR grade severity was divided into 4 grades using an integrated approach (0: none or trace; 1: mild; 2: moderate; 3: severe TR). 3D indexed volumes (3D Vi) of the right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) as well as 3D tricuspid annulus (TA) area were analyzed in end systole (ES) and end diastole (ED). Results: Beyond 6 months of FU, the SR group had overall significantly lower 3D ES RA Vi, 3D ED RA Vi, 3D TA ES area and TR severity in comparison with AF group (Figure). There were no significant differences between the 2 groups with regard to 3D RV Volumes and 3D ED TA area. Conclusions: According to our results on both TR evolution and right heart cavities reverse remodeling, strategies aiming at SR restoration in patients with AF and TR should be broadly discussed.

Abstract: Background The severity of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients with restored normal sinus rhythm (SR) after atrial fibrillation (AF) has been poorly assessed. Purpose Our study aimed to assess (1) right chamber remodelling and (2) TR severity in patients with AF who have had their rhythms restored to normal sinus. Methods We prospectively evaluated 94 consecutive patients hospitalized for AF who received either ablation, direct current cardioversion, or pharmacological therapy. Patients were divided into two groups according to their cardiac rhythm at 6 months follow up (6M): restoration to SR (SR group, n=54), persistence of AF (AF group, n=40). TR vena contracta (VC), TR grade severity was divided into 4 grades using an integrated approach (0: none or trace; 1: mild; 2: moderate; 3: severe TR). Two dimensional (2D) end diastolic (ED) tricuspid annulus (TA) diameter in the apical 4 chambers view, three-dimensional (3D) indexed volumes (3D Vi) of the right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) in end systole (ES) and ED were acquired using transthoracic echocardiography at admission and at 6M. Results At 6M, in the SR group a significant improvement in TR VC (Figure A) and TR grade (Figure B) were noted, whereas there was no differences in the AF group (0.41 vs. 0.42cm, p=0.24 for TR VC; 1.70 vs. 1.76, p=0.16 for mean TR grade). In the SR group a significant reduction in 3D ES RV Vi, 2D ED TA diameter, 3D ES and ED Vi of the RA (Table) were observed. Regression of TR VC was correlated with regression of right cavities parameters (ρ=0.47, p Conclusion Restoration of normal SR in patients with AF results in beneficial remodelling of right cavities at 6M of follow-up which were associated with a significant decrease in TR severity. Strategies for normal SR restoration in patients with AF and TR should be vigorously attempted. TR Evolution Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Abstract: Background Few studies have assessed the evolution of cardiac chambers deformation imaging in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) according to cardiac rhythm outcome. Purpose To evaluate cardiac chamber deformation imaging in patients admitted for AF and the evolution at 6-month follow-up (M6). Methods In forty-one consecutive patients hospitalised for AF two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography was performed at admission (M0) and after six months (M6) of follow up. In addition to the usual parameters of chamber size and function, chamber deformation imaging was obtained including global left atrium (LA) and right atrium (RA) reservoir strain, global left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) free wall longitudinal strain. Patients were divided into three groups according to their cardiac rhythm at M0 and M6: AF at M0 and sinus rhythm (SR) at M6 (AF-SR) (n=23), AF at M0 and AF at M6 (AF-AF) (n=11), SR at M0 (spontaneous conversion before the first echocardiography exam) and SR in M6 (SR-SR) (n=7) Results In comparison with SR patients (n=7), at M0, AF patients (n=34)) had lower global LA reservoir strain (+5.2 (+0.4 to 12.8) versus +33.2 (+27.0 to +51.5)%; p Conclusion Initial atrial and ventricular deformations were not associated with rhythm outcome at six-month follow up in AF. The improvement in strain in all four chambers strain suggests global reverse remodelling all cardiac cavities with the restoration of sinus rhythm.

Abstract: Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently occurs after diuretic treatment initiation during acute heart failure (AHF). Treatment-induced hemoconcentration seems associated with improved prognosis. Transient AKI, with or without hemoconcentration, is of unsettled prognosis. Purpose We aimed to determine the independent prognostic values of transient AKI, persistent AKI and hemoconcentration in the context of hospitalized AHF. Methods Data were obtained from our institution's Clinical Data Warehouse. Patients that visited our unit at least once were screened. All hospitalizations in our institution were examined (>30 hospitals). Inclusion criteria were: ≥1 hospitalization with ≥1 recorded furosemide administration and ≥1 AHF ICD-10 code. Only the first hospitalization fulfilling these criteria was considered. AKI during 1–13 days following first furosemide administration was defined based on Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome guidelines. Hemoconcentration was defined as an increase in serum proteins ≥5 g/l during the same period. We performed multivariate logistic regression to determine which characteristics were predictive of AKI. We used Cox regression of 100-days all-cause mortality using several confounders to determine the prognostic values of transient AKI (lasting Results We included 579 patients in the study. Median follow-up was 114 days. AKI following furosemide initiation occurred in 234 patients (40.4%). Patients that experienced AKI more frequently suffered from chronic kidney disease (43.6% vs. 33%, p=0.01) or presented with right ventricular dilatation (12% vs. 6.7%, p=0.04). Independent predictors of AKI were arterial hypertension (adjusted OR: 1.86 [1.08–3.22]), elevated serum creatinine at baseline (adjusted OR: 1.07 [1.01–1.14] per 10 μmol/l increase) and initial intravenous furosemide (adjusted OR: 2.42 [1.39–4.29]). Death during follow-up occurred in 35% of patients in the AKI group compared to 21% in the non-AKI group (p Conclusion In the context of hospitalized AHF, AKI that developed 1–13 days after furosemide initiation and that lasted ≥14 days was independently associated with decreased 100 days survival. Hemoconcentration, using a clinically relevant definition, was independently associated with improved survival. These findings show that serum creatinine and proteins, routinely used and with limited cost, accurately stratify mortality risk during AHF.

Abstract: Background The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound effect on general health care. We aimed to evaluate the effect of a nationwide lockdown in France on admissions to hospital for acute myocardial infarction, by patient characteristics and regional prevalence of the pandemic. Methods In this registry study, we collected data from 21 centres participating in the ongoing French Cohort of Myocardial Infarction Evaluation (FRENCHIE) registry, which collects data from all patients admitted for ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) within 48 h of symptom onset. We analysed weekly hospital admissions over 8 weeks: the 4 weeks preceding the institution of the lockdown and the 4 weeks following lockdown. The primary outcome was the change in the number of hospital admissions for all types of acute myocardial infarction, NSTEMI, and STEMI between the 4 weeks before lockdown and the 4 weeks after lockdown. Comparisons between categorical variables were made using χ2 tests or Fisher's exact tests. Comparisons of continuous variables were made using Student's t tests or Mann-Whitney tests. Poisson regression was used to determine the significance of change in hospital admissions over the two periods, after verifying the absence of overdispersion. Age category, region, and type of acute myocardial infarction (STEMI or NSTEMI) were used as covariables. The FRENCHIE cohort is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04050956. Findings Between Feb 17 and April 12, 2020, 1167 patients were consecutively admitted within 48 h of acute myocardial infarction (583 with STEMI, 584 with NSTEMI) and were included in the study. Admissions for acute myocardial infarction decreased between the periods before and after lockdown was instituted, from 686 before to 481 after lockdown (30% decrease; incidence rate ratio 0·69 [95% CI 0·51–0·70]). Admissions for STEMI decreased from 331 to 252 (24%; 0·72 [0·62–0·85]), and admissions for NSTEMI decreased from 355 to 229 (35%; 0·64 [0·55–0·76]) following institution of the lockdown, with similar trends according to sex, risk factors, and regional prevalence of hospital admissions for COVID-19. Interpretation A marked decrease in hospital admissions was observed following the lockdown, irrespective of patient characteristics and regional prevalence of COVID-19. Health authorities should be aware of these findings, in order to adapt their message if the COVID-19 pandemic persists or recurs, or in case of future major epidemics.

Abstract: Background and aims Patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) present elevated cardiovascular (CV) risk. Current CV risk stratification algorithms developed for the general population are not adapted for heFH patients. It is therefore of singular importance to develop and validate CV prediction tools, which are dedicated to the HeFH population. Methods Our first objective was to validate the Spanish SAFEHEART-risk equation (RE) in the French HeFH cohort (REFERCHOL), and the second to compare SAFEHEART-RE with the low-density-lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C)-year-score for the prediction of CV events in the HeFH French population. Results We included HeFH (n = 1473) patients with a genetic or clinical diagnosis (DLCN score ≥8). Among them, 512 patients with a 5-year follow-up were included to validate the 5 year-CV-RE. A total of 152 events (10.3%) occurred in the entire population of 1473 patients during a mean follow-up of 3.9 years. Over the five-year follow-up, non-fatal CV events occurred in 103 patients (20.2%). Almost all the parameters used in the SAFEHEART-RE were confirmed as strong predictors of CV events in the REFERCHOL cohort. The C-statistic revealed a satisfactory performance of both the SAFEHEART-RE and LDL-C-year-scores in predicting CV events for all the patients (primary and secondary prevention) (C-index 0.77 and 0.70, respectively) as well as for those in primary prevention at inclusion (C-index 0.78 and 0.77, respectively). Conclusions This analysis represents the first external validation of the SAFEHEART-RE and demonstrated that both SAFEHEART-RE and the LDL-C-year-score are good predictors of CV events in primary prevention HeFH patients.

Abstract: International audience; Background: Clopidogrel associated with aspirin is the recommended treatment for patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Although severe PCI-related events are rare, evidence suggests that PCI-related myocardial infarction and myocardial injury are frequent complications that can impact the clinical prognosis of the patients. Antiplatelet therapy with a potent P2Y12 receptor inhibitor such as ticagrelor may reduce periprocedural ischemic complications while maintaining a similar safety profile as compared with conventional dual antiplatelet therapy by aspirin and clopidogrel in this setting. Methods: Assessment of Loading with the P2Y12 inhibitor ticagrelor or clopidogrel to Halt ischemic Events in patients Undergoing elective coronary Stenting (ALPHEUS) (NCT02617290) is an international, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, open-label study in patients with stable coronary artery disease who are planned for an elective PCI. In total, 1,900 patients will be randomized before a planned PCI to a loading dose of ticagrelor 180 mg or a loading dose of clopidogrel (300 or 600 mg) in addition to aspirin. Patients will then receive a dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and ticagrelor 90 mg twice daily or clopidogrel 75 mg once daily for 30 days. The primary ischemic end point is PCI-related myocardial infarction (myocardial infarction type 4a or 4b) or major myocardial injury within 48 hours (or at hospital discharge if earlier) after elective PCI/stent. Safety will be evaluated by major bleeding events (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 3 or 5) at 48 hours (or discharge if it occurs earlier). Conclusion: ALPHEUS is the first properly sized trial comparing ticagrelor to clopidogrel in the setting of elective PCI and is especially designed to show a reduction in periprocedural events, a surrogate end point for mortality.

Abstract: Background and Aims Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurring after diuretic treatment initiation for acute heart failure (AHF) is a common phenomenon, with an incidence estimated between 20 and 50% of AHF hospitalizations. Previous studies found that persistent AKI is associated with poor prognosis. Treatment-induced hemoconcentration is associated with improved prognosis, but several definitions previously used are not suited for clinical practice. Transient AKI, with or without hemoconcentration, is of unsettled prognosis. We aim to determine the independent prognostic value of transient AKI, persistent AKI and hemoconcentration in the context of AHF hospitalization, using practical definitions. Method Data were obtained from the Greater Paris University Hospitals (GPUH) Clinical Data Warehouse. Patients hospitalized for AHF in various GPUH units were included. AHF hospitalization was defined as hospitalization with at least one AHF ICD-10 code and at least one recorded furosemide administration. Bumetanide is rarely used in GPUH hospitals hence it was not considered. AKI in a period of 14 days following first furosemide administration was defined based on KDIGO guidelines. Hemoconcentration was defined as an increase in serum proteins ≥ 5 g/l during the same period. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine which characteristics were predictive of AKI. Cox regression of 100 days all-cause mortality using multiple confounders was performed to determine the prognostic value of transient AKI (< 14 days), persistent AKI (≥ 14 days) and hemoconcentration. Patients with AKI upon hospital entry were excluded from regression analyses. AKI and hemoconcentration were treated as time-dependent covariates to adjust for immortality bias. Results Five hundred seventy nine patients were included. Among them, 529 had no AKI upon hospital entry and 513 had at least one recorded serum proteins and creatinine value following furosemide initiation. Median follow-up was 114 days. AKI in a period of 14 days following furosemide initiation occurred in 234 patients (40.4%). At baseline, patients in the AKI group more frequently suffered from chronic kidney disease or presented with clinical and echocardiographic signs of right heart failure. Independent predictors of AKI were arterial hypertension upon furosemide initiation (adjusted OR 1.86 [1.08 – 3.22]), elevated serum creatinine upon furosemide initiation (adjusted OR 1.07 [1.01 – 1.14] per 10 µmol/l increase) and initial intravenous administration of furosemide (adjusted OR 2.42 [1.39 – 4.29]). Death during follow-up occurred in 35% of patients in the AKI group compared to 21% in the non-AKI group (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, persistent AKI was independently associated with increased mortality in a period of 100 days following furosemide initiation (adjusted HR 2.31 [1.07 – 4.99]). Transient AKI was not significantly associated with mortality (adjusted HR 0.64 [0.34 – 1.19]). Hemoconcentration was independently associated with decreased mortality (adjusted HR 0.46 [0.27 – 0.79]). Conclusion After furosemide initiation during hospitalization for AHF, persistent AKI (≥ 14 days) was independently associated with increased 100 days mortality. Hemoconcentration, using a definition suited for clinical practice (≥ 5 g/l increase in serum proteins), was independently associated with decreased 100 days mortality. No significant association was found between mortality and transient AKI (< 14 days). Those findings show that laboratory tests at a limited cost – serum proteins and creatinine – are helpful to evaluate treatment response and mortality risk during AHF. Prospective randomized controlled trials are needed to establish diuretic strategies based on both AKI and hemoconcentration.

Abstract: Variants in LMNA, encoding A-type lamins, are responsible for laminopathies including muscular dystrophies, lipodystrophies, and progeroid syndromes. Cardiovascular laminopathic involvement is classically described as cardiomyopathy in striated muscle laminopathies, and arterial wall dysfunction and/or valvulopathy in lipodystrophic and/or progeroid laminopathies. We report unexpected cardiovascular phenotypes in patients with LMNA-associated lipodystrophies, illustrating the complex multitissular pathophysiology of the disease and the need for specific cardiovascular investigations in affected patients. A 33-year-old woman was diagnosed with generalized lipodystrophy and atypical progeroid syndrome due to the newly identified heterozygous LMNA p.(Asp136Val) variant. Her complex cardiovascular phenotype was associated with atherosclerosis, aortic valvular disease and left ventricular hypertrophy with rhythm and conduction defects. A 29-year-old woman presented with a partial lipodystrophy syndrome and a severe coronary atherosclerosis which required a triple coronary artery bypass grafting. She carried the novel heterozygous p.(Arg60Pro) LMNA variant inherited from her mother, affected with partial lipodystrophy and dilated cardiomyopathy. Different lipodystrophy-associated LMNA pathogenic variants could target cardiac vasculature and/or muscle, leading to complex overlapping phenotypes. Unifying pathophysiological hypotheses should be explored in several cell models including adipocytes, cardiomyocytes and vascular cells. Patients with LMNA-associated lipodystrophy should be systematically investigated with 24-h ECG monitoring, echocardiography and non-invasive coronary function testing.

Abstract: Background The Data Collection on Adverse Events of Anti-HIV Drugs (DAD) study has reported an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases in people with human immunodeficiency virus who were exposed to darunavir (DRV) but not to atazanavir (ATV). Our objective was to evaluate associations between ATV or DRV exposures and the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) in a nested case-control study within ANRS-CO4 French Hospital Database on HIV (FHDH). Methods Cases were individuals who had a first validated MI between 2006 and 2012. Up to 5 controls were selected at random with replacement among individuals with no history of MI, followed at the time of MI diagnosis, and matched for age and sex. Conditional logistic regression models were used to adjust for potential confounders (MI risk factors and HIV-related parameters) and for cumulative exposure to each antiretroviral drug (ARV). Results Overall, 408 MI cases and 1250 controls were included: 109 (27%) cases and 288 (23%) controls had been exposed to ATV, and 41 (10%) cases and 107 (9%) controls had been exposed to DRV. There was no significant association between exposure to ATV (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 1.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], .87–2.73) or DRV (adjusted OR = 0.51; 95% CI, .11–2.32) and the risk of MI. Conclusions In FHDH, exposures to ATV or to DRV were not significantly associated with the risk of MI, adjusting for complete ARV history, contrary to the analysis in DAD.

Abstract: International audience; Background: People living with human immunodeficiency virus (PLHIV) are at higher risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) due to traditional and HIV- or antiretroviral treatment (ART)-related risk factors. The use of high-intensity statin therapy is often limited by comorbidities and drug-drug interactions with ART. Herein, we present the design and baseline characteristics of the BEIJERINCK study, which will assess the safety and efficacy of evolocumab in PLHIV and hypercholesterolemia/mixed dyslipidemia.Methods: Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multinational trial that investigates monthly subcutaneous evolocumab 420 mg versus placebo in PLHIV with hypercholesterolemia/mixed dyslipidemia who are treated with maximally-tolerated statin therapy. The primary outcome is the baseline to week 24 percent change in low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). Secondary outcomes include achievement of LDL-C < 70 mg/dL and percent change in other plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels. Safety will also be examined.Results: This study enrolled and dosed 464 patients who had a mean age of 56.4 years and were mostly male (82.5%). Mean duration with HIV was 17.4 years, and, by design, HIV viral load at screening was ≤50 copies/mL. ASCVD was documented in 35.6% of patients. Mean LDL-C of enrolled patients at baseline was 133.3 mg/dL. Statin use was prevalent (79.3% overall) with 74.6% receiving moderate or high-intensity statins. In total, 20.7% of patients did not receive statins due to intolerance/contraindications.Conclusions: The BEIJERINCK study is the first clinical trial to examine the lipid-lowering efficacy and safety of a fully human PCSK9 monoclonal antibody inhibitor in a moderate/high cardiovascular risk population of PLHIV.

Abstract: Background Evaluation of right atrial cavities and right atrial (RA) remodelling in atrial fibrillation (AF) has been poorly studied. Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate in AF, the role of three-dimensional (3D) transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and strain to refine the evaluation of the RA according to evolution of cardiac rhythm ad mid-term follow-up. Methods A complete 2D and 3D TTE was performed in patient hospitalized for AF. In addition to the usual parameters, RA parameters were specifically assessed: 3D RA end-systolic (ES) and end-diastolic (ED) volume, RA ejection fraction (EF) and the global longitudinal strain (GLS) of the RA. A complete clinical evaluation and electrocardiogram were performed at admission (M0) and 6 months after inclusion (M6) to determine the cardiac rhythm at follow-up. Results 34 consecutive patients hospitalized for AF were analysed. At M0, there was no significant difference between 2D RA ES volume and the 3D RA ES volume. Three groups of patients were individualized according to cardiac rhythm at M0 and M6: AF at M0 and AF at M6 (AF-AF), AF at M0 and sinus rhythm (SR) at M6 (AF-SR), SR at M0 (spontaneous reduction before the admission ECG) and SR at M6 (SR-SR). At M0 echocardiography, in the AF-AF group and AF-SR in comparison with SR-SR group were as follow: the 3D RA ED volume was significantly higher (respectively 21.6 (18.2-26.6) and 26.9 (19.4-36.8) versus 11.3 (6.9-16.6) mL/m2 ; p = 0.0025), the 3D RAEF was significantly lower (42.2 (35.1-44.7) and 34.5 (24.1-38.6) versus 57.6 (53.4-62.2)%; p = 0.0105) and the RA GLS was also significantly lower (7.6 (6.5-10.5) and 9.1 (5.8-11.2) versus 26.6 (22.0-35.0)%; p = 0.0001) (Figure 1). Conclusion 3D ultrasound and strain could be useful tools for evaluating the anatomical and functional RA remodelling in AF, to be further validated in a larger ongoing study. Abstract P350 Figure 1

Abstract: Transthoracic echocardiography remains the first-line cardiac imaging for diagnosis, management and screening of heart failure, whatever its phenotype (heart failure with reduced, mid-range and preserved ejection fraction). It allows anatomic characterization, systolic and diastolic functions of left and right ventricles assessment, intracardiac hemodynamic evaluation and for the assessment of valve disease. Myocardial deformation imaging (strain) is indicated in patients with heart failure for the assessment of systolic ventricles function and the diagnosis of specific heart diseases. Strain is indicated for the screening of preclinical myocardial dysfunction in patients at risk or exposed to cardiotoxic treatment. Altered global longitudinal strain is associated with a poor prognosis in heart failure. Cardiac magnetic resonance is recommended for the assessment of myocardial structure and function in subjects with poor acoustic window and patients with complex congenital heart diseases, in order to distinguish between ischemic and non-ischemic myocardial damage in patients with dilated cardiopathy and to characterize myocardial tissue in case of suspected specific heart disease.

Abstract: Background HIV-infected individuals undergoing effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) present an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We identified serum metabolites associated with carotid intima-media-thickness (c-IMT) and its evolution. Methods 143 hydrophilic serum metabolites were measured by ultra-performance-liquid-chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass-spectrometry in 49 HIV+ART+, 48 HIV+ART-naïve, and 50 HIV-negative age-matched, never-smoking, male triads. Metabolites differentially altered between groups (“features”) were defined as having a Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted p-value 0.25 log2 absolute mean fold-change in metabolite levels. c-IMT was measured across 12 sites at inclusion in all individuals and at the carotid-artery (cca) after a median 5.1 years in 32 HIV+ART+ individuals. Difference in c-IMT (cross-sectional analysis) and slope of cca-IMT regression/progression per year (longitudinal analysis) for each log10(area) increase in metabolite level was estimated with linear regression. Results Compared to HIV-, metabolite features of HIV+ART+ were increased N6,N6,N6-trimethyl-L-lysine and decreased ferulate and 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan; while features of HIV+ART-naïve were increased malate, kynurenine, 2-oxoglutarate, and indole-3-acetate and decreased succinate and 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan. In HIV+ART+ individuals, quinolinate and/or indole-3-acetate were positively associated with c-IMT (p Conclusion In these highly-selected HIV-positive ART-controlled males, two novel metabolites derived from tryptophan catabolism, indole-3-acetate and quinolinate, were associated with c-IMT and its progression.
