Subjects: marathon run, amateur runners, revision method, right ventricular motion components, right ventricular dysfunction (RV dysfunction), 3D echocardiography, Physiology, QP1-981
Abstract: Moderate physical activity has a positive impact on health, although extreme forms of sport such as marathon running may trigger exercise-induced cardiac fatigue. The explicit distinction between the right ventricular (RV) physiological response to training and maladaptive remodeling has not yet been determined. In this study, we aimed to analyze the impact of running a marathon on RV mechanics in amateur athletes using three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography (ECHO) and the ReVISION method (RV separate wall motion quantification). A group of 34 men with a mean age of 40 ± 8 years who successfully finished a marathon underwent ECHO three times, i.e., 2 weeks before the marathon (stage I), at the marathon finish line (stage II), and 2 weeks after the marathon (stage III). The ECHO findings were then correlated with the concentrations of biomarkers related to myocardial injury and overload and also obtained at the three stages. On finishing the marathon, the amateur athletes were found to have a significant (p < 0.05) increase in end-diastolic (with a median of 51.4 vs. 57.0 ml/m2) and end-systolic (with a median of 24.9 vs. 31.5 ml/m2) RV volumes indexed to body surface area, reduced RV ejection fraction (RVEF) (with a median of 51.0% vs. 46.0%), and a decrease in RV radial shortening [i.e., radial EF (REF)] (with a mean of 23.0 ± 4.5% vs. 19.3 ± 4.2%), with other RV motion components remaining unchanged. The post-competition decrease in REF was more evident in runners with larger total volume of trainings (R2 = 0.4776, p = 0.0002) and higher concentrations of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (r = 0.43, p < 0.05) during the preparation period. The decrease in REF was more prominent in the training of marathoners more than 47 km/week. At stage II, marathoners with a more marked decrease in RVEF and REF had higher galectin-3 (Gal-3) levels (r = −0.48 and r = −0.39, respectively; p < 0.05). Running a marathon significantly altered the RV performance of amateur athletes. Transient impairment in RV systolic function resulted from decreased radial shortening, which appeared in those who trained more extensively. Observed ECHO changes correlated with the concentrations of the profibrotic marker Gal-3.

4. Metabolomics Meets Clinics: A Multivariate Analysis of Plasma and Urine Metabolic Signatures in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Author: Wawrzyniak, Renata, Grešner, Peter, Lewicka, Ewa, Macioszek, Szymon, Furga, Artur, Zieba, Bożena, J. Markuszewski, Michał, and Da̧browska-Kugacka, Alicja
Abstract: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe, multifactorial, and frequently misdiagnosed disorder. The aim of this observational study was to compare the plasma and urine metabolomic profiles of PAH patients and healthy control subjects. Plasma and urine metabolomic profiles were analyzed using the GC-MS technique. Correlations between metabolite levels and clinical parameters among PAH patients, as well as the between-group differences, were evaluated. The linear discriminant analysis model, which allows for subject classification in terms of PAH with the highest possible precision, was developed and proposed. Plasma pyruvic acid, cholesterol, threonine, urine 3-(3-hydroxyphenyl)-3-hydroxypropanoic acid, butyric acid, 1,2-benzenediol, glucoheptonic acid, and 2-oxo-glutaric acid were found to build a relatively accurate classification model for PAH patients. The model reached an accuracy of 91% and significantly improved subject classification (OR = 119 [95% CI: 20.3–698.3], p< 0.0001). Five metabolites were detected in urine that provide easily available and noninvasive tests as compared to right heart catheterization. The selected panel of metabolites has potential for early recognition of patients with dyspnea and faster referral to a reference center.

Abstract: [Abstract] Aims. This study aimed to assess age‐ and sex‐related differences in management and 1‐year risk for all‐cause mortality and hospitalization in chronic heart failure (HF) patients. Methods and results. Of 16 354 patients included in the European Society of Cardiology Heart Failure Long‐Term Registry, 9428 chronic HF patients were analysed [median age: 66 years; 28.5% women; mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 37%]. Rates of use of guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) were high (angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers, beta‐blockers and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: 85.7%, 88.7% and 58.8%, respectively). Crude GDMT utilization rates were lower in women than in men (all differences: P ≤ 0.001), and GDMT use became lower with ageing in both sexes, at baseline and at 1‐year follow‐up. Sex was not an independent predictor of GDMT prescription; however, age >75 years was a significant predictor of GDMT underutilization. Rates of all‐cause mortality were lower in women than in men (7.1% vs. 8.7%; P = 0.015), as were rates of all‐cause hospitalization (21.9% vs. 27.3%; P < 0.001) and there were no differences in causes of death. All‐cause mortality and all‐cause hospitalization increased with greater age in both sexes. Sex was not an independent predictor of 1‐year all‐cause mortality (restricted to patients with LVEF ≤45%). Mortality risk was significantly lower in patients of younger age, compared to patients aged >75 years. Conclusions. There was a decline in GDMT use with advanced age in both sexes. Sex was not an independent predictor of GDMT or adverse outcomes. However, age >75 years independently predicted lower GDMT use and higher all‐cause mortality in patients with LVEF ≤45%.

Abstract: We compared the effects of right ventricular (RVP, n = 26) and His bundle (HBP, n = 24) pacing in patients with atrioventricular conduction disorders and preserved LVEF. Postoperatively (1D), and after six months (6M), the patients underwent global longitudinal strain (GLS) and peak systolic dispersion (PSD) evaluation with 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography, assessment of left atrial volume index (LAVI) and QRS duration (QRSd), and sensing/pacing parameter testing. The RVP threshold was lower than the HBP threshold at 1D (0.65 ± 0.13 vs. 1.05 ± 0.20 V, p &lt, 0.001), and then it remained stable, while the HBP threshold increased at 6M (1.05 ± 0.20 vs. 1.31 ± 0.30 V, p &lt, 0.001). The RVP R-wave was higher than the HBP R-wave at 1D (11.52 ± 2.99 vs. 4.82 ± 1.41 mV, p &lt, 0.001). The RVP R-wave also remained stable, while the HBP R-wave decreased at 6M (4.82 ± 1.41 vs. 4.50 ± 1.09 mV, p &lt, 0.02). RVP QRSd was longer than HBP QRSd at 6M (145.0 ± 11.1 vs. 112.3 ± 9.3 ms, p &lt, 0.001). The absolute value of RVP GLS decreased at 6M (16.32 ± 2.57 vs. 14.03 ± 3.78%, p &lt, 0.001), and HBP GLS remained stable. Simultaneously, RVP PSD increased (72.53 ± 24.15 vs. 88.33 ± 30.51 ms, p &lt, 0.001) and HBP PSD decreased (96.28 ± 33.99 vs. 84.95 ± 28.98 ms, p &lt, 0.001) after 6 months. RVP LAVI increased (26.73 ± 5.7 vs. 28.40 ± 6.4 mL/m2, p &lt, 0.05), while HBP LAVI decreased at 6M (30.03 ± 7.8 vs. 28.73 ± 8.7 mL/m2, p &lt, 0.01). These results confirm that HBP does not disrupt ventricular synchrony and provides advantages over RVP.

Abstract: Introduction Running the marathon may be followed by post-exercise “cardiac fatigue” manifesting as transient right ventricular (RV) systolic and diastolic impairment. It is the thin-walled RV that is predominantly affected by the exercise-induced overload, with little if any, impact on the left ventricle (LV) [1]. The 2-D echocardiographic (ECHO) assessment of RV is challenging and may be incomplete since conventional measures reflect only the longitudinal motion (displacement of tricuspid annulus towards the apex) [2]. The mechanics of RV can be separated into two more components, anteroposterior (stretching RV wall by contracting septum) and radial (internal relocation of the RV free wall) [2]. The significance and relative contribution of motion components to global RV function may not be equal, and their interplay can vary depending on concomitant diseases [3]. Purpose We aimed to analyse the pathophysiology of RV exhaustion associated with a marathon run with 3-D ECHO, which allows precise estimation of all RV motion components and their contribution to RV global function. Methods The study included 34 healthy males (mean age of 40±8 years), amateurs, who finished the marathon in northern Poland. The 3-D ECHO was performed 2 weeks before (stage I), at the marathon finish line (stage II) and 2 weeks after the competition (stage III). According to the ReVISION method (Right ventricular separate wall motion quantification) the global RV function was decomposed to longitudinal (L_), anteroposterior (AP_) and radial (R_) [3]. By dividing componential ejection fractions (EF) with global RV EF, L_EFi, AP_EFi, and R_EFi ratios were obtained. Results When comparing results from stage I and III there were no significant differences (Table 1). The analysis revealed post-run decline in RV EF with no changes in LV EF. The quantification of the RV motion components showed reduction in R_EF after the marathon with no changes in AP_EF or L_EF. The relative contribution of componential EF to global RV function were permanent and was not influenced by the competition. Conclusions Marathon run resulted in transient RV dysfunction arising from decline in radial shortening. Noteworthy, the componential interplay between wall motion compartments was preserved in pre- and post-run assessment. The ReVISION method enables the comprehensive analysis of the competing RV.

Abstract: Introduction The long-term endurance training is associated with an increased risk of both right (RV) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. However, males and females exhibit different cardiac adaptation to exercise. The aim of our study was to evaluate three-dimensional (3D) echocardiographic parameters of ventricular function before and after the marathon in male and female amateur athletes, and compare them between sexes. Methods The study included 40 male (39±8 years) and 27 female (40±7 years) amateur athletes. Echocardiography was performed 2–3 weeks before (Stage 1) and immediately after (Stage 2) the marathon run. RV and LV area and function were assessed using standard and 3D echocardiography. Results After the marathon, there was a significant increase in the RV size (indexed RV end-diastolic volume, 51.1±12.0 vs. 59.0±9.1 ml/m2, p=0.003 in males; 48.8±11.0 vs. 60.0±11.1 ml/m2, p Conclusions In both male and female amateur athletes, marathon running resulted in RV dilatation and reduction in function, with concomitant decrease in LV dimensions. However, 3D analysis revealed that strenuous exercise alters LV systolic function to a greater degree in men relative to women. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding sources: None.

Abstract: Background/Introduction Postprocedural radial artery occlusion (RAO) is still the Achilles' heel of conventional transradial approach (cTRA) as it limits its reuse for future coronary procedures. A distal transradial access (dTRA) via the anatomical snuffbox has been proposed as an alternative. It is hypothesised that dTRA may reduce the incidence of RAO. Purpose To assess whether routine dTRA reduce the risk of RAO in consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography or intervention, in comparison with cTRA. Methods Out of 465 subjects, 400 patients were included in a prospective, single-center, randomized (1:1) study. Hemodynamic instability, ST-elevation myocardial infarction, forearm artery occlusion or prior radial access failure were the exclusion criteria. Ultrasound-guided follow-up was obtained after 1 day and 60 days to evaluate the incidence of acute and late RAO. Results Baseline characteristics of patients were matched. Results are presented in table 1. Conclusion(s) The incidence of postprocedural acute and late RAO after routine dTRA and cTRA is low and occur with similar frequency when evaluated by ultrasound.

Abstract: Background Pulmonary hypertension constitutes a rare disease characterized by a severe development and a high risk of premature death. One of its main clinical types is pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), in which the highest percentage of patients are affected by idiopathic PAH. The pathogenesis of this disease has not completely been discovered and elucidated so far, and non-specific clinical symptoms make the diagnosis of PAH a serious problem. Currently, PAH is confirmed with invasive examination based on right heart catheterization. Purpose The main aim of the study was to evaluate and compare both plasma and urine fingerprints of PAH patients and control group with the use of an untargeted metabolomics approach. The study also focused on correlation analysis between the observed metabolic changes and the clinical parameters to select specific indicators of PAH disease. Methods An untargeted metabolomics approach was applied to the plasma and urine samples with the use of gas chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-QqQ/MS) and advanced statistical tests were applied to evaluate the potential metabolic indicators of PAH. The PAH patients (n=40) and healthy controls (n=39) were matched for age, sex, BMI and included in the study. The obtained raw datasets were properly processed (data deconvolution, signal correction using QCSVR method and PQN normalization) and subsequently subjected to uni- and multivariate statistical tests (Student's t-test, Welch's test, U Mann-Whitney test, PCA and OPLS-DA). The identification of the statistically significant metabolites was performed using universal libraries, such as: Fiehn's and NIST11. Results The statistically significant metabolites (n=10 and 11 for urine and plasma samples, respectively)originate from various biochemical pathways associated with the carbohydrate, amino acid, lipid, fatty acid and pyrimidine metabolism. The metabolic changes observed in the urine samples of PAH patients (compared to the control group) included different concentrations in: threonic acid, hippuric acid, acetic acid, sorbitol, butanoic acid and propionic acid. The metabolic alterations in the plasma samples covered changes in the levels of valine, leucine, lactic acid, hydroxybutanoic acid, nonanoic acid, cholesterol and octadecanoic acid. Metabolites representing the highest correlation with mean pulmonary arterial pressure include, for instance: propionic acid (r=0.85), valine (r=0.75) and lactic acid (r=0.63) Conclusions The observed metabolic changes are related to various biological processes that are disturbed in the course of PAH, namely: proliferation of pulmonary vascular cells or the functions of cardiomyocytes and the right ventricle of the heart. The obtained results confirmed the potential of a metabolomics approach to uncover and explain the underlying molecular mechanisms of PAH.

Abstract: Introduction Endurance athletes have an increased risk of atrial remodeling and atrial arrhythmias. However, data regarding atrial adaptation to physical exercise in non-elite athletes are limited. We aimed to assess exercise-induced alternations in atrial morphology and function in male and female amateur marathon runners, using real-time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography. Methods The study group consisted of 40 male (39±8 years) and 27 female (40±7 years) amateur athletes. 3D echocardiography was performed 2–3 weeks before (Stage 1) and immediately after (Stage 2) the marathon run. Right (RA) and left atrial (LA) remodeling was assessed by volumetric measures, total ejection fraction (EF) and volume (EV). Speckle tracking was used to determine the temporal evaluation of atrial function by strain analysis. Results The main results are presented in Table 1. At rest, male athletes demonstrated greater RA size and decreased RA contractility, as assessed by EF and atrial strains, in comparison to females. At Stage 1, LA morphology and function did not differ significantly between genders. After the marathon, a remarkable increase in RA maximal volume (RAVmax, 32.9±8.6 vs. 36.4±8.2 ml/m2, p=0.016) and RAEF (49.5±9.7 vs. 57.3±9.2%, p=0.002) was observed only in female athletes (p Conclusions In amateur athletes, marathon running promotes biatrial remodelling with significant gender discrepancies. Females are more susceptible to exercise-induced morphological and functional changes of RA, while postrace alternations in males concern principally LA. 3D echocardiography of the atria is a useful indicator of exercise capacity, not only in elite, but also in amateur athletes.

Abstract: [Abstract] Aims. We assessed the interplay between hyperkalaemia (HK) and renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) use, dose and discontinuation, and their association with all‐cause or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic heart failure (HF). We hypothesized that HK‐associated increased death may be related to RAASi withdrawal. Methods and results. The ESC‐HFA‐EORP Heart Failure Long‐Term Registry was used. Among 9222 outpatients (HF with reduced ejection fraction: 60.6%, HF with mid‐range ejection fraction: 22.9%, HF with preserved ejection fraction: 16.5%) from 31 countries, 16.6% had HK (≥5.0 mmol/L) at baseline. Angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) was used in 88.3%, a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) in 58.7%, or a combination in 53.2%; of these, at ≥50% of target dose in ACEi: 61.8%; ARB: 64.7%; and MRA: 90.3%. At a median follow‐up of 12.2 months, there were 789 deaths (8.6%). Both hypokalaemia and HK were independently associated with higher mortality, and ACEi/ARB prescription at baseline with lower mortality. MRA prescription was not retained in the model. In multivariable analyses, HK at baseline was independently associated with MRA non‐prescription at baseline and subsequent discontinuation. When considering subsequent discontinuation of RAASi (instead of baseline use), HK was no longer found associated with all‐cause deaths. Importantly, all RAASi (ACEi, ARB, or MRA) discontinuations were strongly associated with mortality. Conclusions. In HF, hyper‐ and hypokalaemia were associated with mortality. However, when adjusting for RAASi discontinuation, HK was no longer associated with mortality, suggesting that HK may be a risk marker for RAASi discontinuation rather than a risk factor for worse outcomes.

Abstract: [Abstract] Aims. Guidelines recommend down-titration of loop diuretics (LD) once euvolaemia is achieved. In outpatients with heart failure (HF), we investigated LD dose changes in daily cardiology practice, agreement with guideline recommendations, predictors of successful LD down-titration and association between dose changes and outcomes. Methods and results. We included 8130 HF patients from the ESC-EORP Heart Failure Long-Term Registry. Among patients who had dose decreased, successful decrease was defined as the decrease not followed by death, HF hospitalization, New York Heart Association class deterioration, or subsequent increase in LD dose. Mean age was 66±13 years, 71% men, 62% HF with reduced ejection fraction, 19% HF with mid-range ejection fraction, 19% HF with preserved ejection fraction. Median [interquartile range (IQR)] LD dose was 40 (25–80) mg. LD dose was increased in 16%, decreased in 8.3% and unchanged in 76%. Median (IQR) follow-up was 372 (363–419) days. Diuretic dose increase (vs. no change) was associated with HF death [hazard ratio (HR) 1.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.12–2.08; P = 0.008] and nominally with cardiovascular death (HR 1.25, 95% CI 0.96–1.63; P = 0.103). Decrease of diuretic dose (vs. no change) was associated with nominally lower HF (HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.33–1.07; P = 0.083) and cardiovascular mortality (HR 0.62 95% CI 0.38–1.00; P = 0.052). Among patients who had LD dose decreased, systolic blood pressure [odds ratio (OR) 1.11 per 10 mmHg increase, 95% CI 1.01–1.22; P = 0.032], and absence of (i) sleep apnoea (OR 0.24, 95% CI 0.09–0.69; P = 0.008), (ii) peripheral congestion (OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.29–0.80; P = 0.005), and (iii) moderate/severe mitral regurgitation (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.37–0.87; P = 0.008) were independently associated with successful decrease. Conclusion. Diuretic dose was unchanged in 76% and decreased in 8.3% of outpatients with chronic HF. LD dose increase was associated with worse outcomes, while the LD dose decrease group showed a trend for better outcomes compared with the no-change group. Higher systolic blood pressure, and absence of (i) sleep apnoea, (ii) peripheral congestion, and (iii) moderate/severe mitral regurgitation were independently associated with successful dose decrease.

Abstract: [Abstract] Aims: Classification of acute heart failure (AHF) patients into four clinical profiles defined by evidence of congestion and perfusion is advocated by the 2016 European Society of Cardiology (ESC)guidelines. Based on the ESC-EORP-HFA Heart Failure Long-Term Registry, we compared differences in baseline characteristics, in-hospital management and outcomes among congestion/perfusion profiles using this classification. Methods and results: We included 7865 AHF patients classified at admission as: 'dry-warm' (9.9%), 'wet-warm' (69.9%), 'wet-cold' (19.8%) and 'dry-cold' (0.4%). These groups differed significantly in terms of baseline characteristics, in-hospital management and outcomes. In-hospital mortality was 2.0% in 'dry-warm', 3.8% in 'wet-warm', 9.1% in 'dry-cold' and 12.1% in 'wet-cold' patients. Based on clinical classification at admission, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for 1-year mortality were: 'wet-warm' vs. 'dry-warm' 1.78 (1.43-2.21) and 'wet-cold' vs. 'wet-warm' 1.33 (1.19-1.48). For profiles resulting from discharge classification, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for 1-year mortality were: 'wet-warm' vs. 'dry-warm' 1.46 (1.31-1.63) and 'wet-cold' vs. 'wet-warm' 2.20 (1.89-2.56). Among patients discharged alive, 30.9% had residual congestion, and these patients had higher 1-year mortality compared to patients discharged without congestion (28.0 vs. 18.5%). Tricuspid regurgitation, diabetes, anaemia and high New York Heart Association class were independently associated with higher risk of congestion at discharge, while beta-blockers at admission, de novo heart failure, or any cardiovascular procedure during hospitalization were associated with lower risk of residual congestion. Conclusion: Classification based on congestion/perfusion status provides clinically relevant information at hospital admission and discharge. A better understanding of the clinical course of the two entities could play an important role towards the implementation of targeted strategies that may improve outcomes.

Abstract: Aims To assess the proportion of patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) who are eligible for sacubitril/valsartan (LCZ696) based on the European Medicines Agency/Food and Drug Administration (EMA/FDA) label, the PARADIGM-HF trial and the 2016 ESC guidelines, and the association between eligibility and outcomes. Methods and results Outpatients with HFrEF in the ESC-EORP-HFA Long-Term Heart Failure (HF-LT) Registry between March 2011 and November 2013 were considered. Criteria for LCZ696 based on EMA/FDA label, PARADIGM-HF and ESC guidelines were applied. Of 5443 patients, 2197 and 2373 had complete information for trial and guideline eligibility assessment, and 84%, 12% and 12% met EMA/FDA label, PARADIGM-HF and guideline criteria, respectively. Absent PARADIGM-HF criteria were low natriuretic peptides (21%), hyperkalemia (4%), hypotension (7%) and sub-optimal pharmacotherapy (74%); absent Guidelines criteria were LVEF>35% (23%), insufficient NP levels (30%) and sub-optimal pharmacotherapy (82%); absent label criteria were absence of symptoms (New York Heart Association class I). When a daily requirement of ACEi/ARB >= 10mg enalapril (instead of >= 20 mg) was used, eligibility rose from 12% to 28% based on both PARADIGM-HF and guidelines. One-year heart failure hospitalization was higher (12% and 17% vs. 12%) and all-cause mortality lower (5.3% and 6.5% vs. 7.7%) in registry eligible patients compared to the enalapril arm of PARADIGM-HF. Conclusions Among outpatients with HFrEF in the ESC-EORP-HFA HF-LT Registry, 84% met label criteria, while only 12% and 28% met PARADIGM-HF and guideline criteria for LCZ696 if requiring >= 20 mg and >= 10mg enalapril, respectively. Registry patients eligible for LCZ696 had greater heart failure hospitalization but lower mortality rates than the PARADIGM-HF enalapril group.

Abstract: Background/Introduction Conventional transradial approach (c-TRA) at the wrist is considered as the default strategy for catheter-based procedures providing less serious access-related complications and better patients' comfort than transfemoral route. A novel distal transradial artery approach (d-TRA) via the anatomical snuffbox has been proposed recently as an noteworthy alternative. It is hypothesised that d-TRA may provide additional benefits without losing the efficacy of c-TRA. Purpose To assess consecutive patients' comfort undergoing coronary angiography or intervention by novel d-TRA in comparison with c-TRA. Methods In a span of 4 months, out of 465 caucasian subjects, 400 patients were included in a prospective, single-center, randomized (1:1) distAl vs traditioNal Transradial Access for coRonary procEdures Study (ANTARES). Hemodynamic instability, ST-elevation myocardial infarction, forearm artery occlusion or prior radial access failure were the exclusion criteria. An artery was punctured with anterior wall modified Seldinger technique, and standard 5F or 6F vascular sheaths were used. Pain/discomfort when access gaining, radial spasm, early (within 24 hours) postprocedural local neuropathy (thumb numbness) were the analyzed parameters determining patients' comfort in both groups. Results Baseline characteristics of patients were matched. Conclusion(s) Coronary procedures performed in consecutive patients via novel d-TRA are associated with worse patient's comfort determined by higer rate of radial spasm and early postprocedural local neuropathy, and greater pain/discomfort when access gaining, in comparison with c-TRA.

Abstract: Alterations in iron metabolism after physical activity are manifested through the rise of blood hepcidin (Hpc) levels. However, in many athletes, no changes in Hpc levels are observed after exercise despite the presence of inflammation. The missing links could be erythropoietin (EPO) and erythroferrone (ERFE), which down-regulate Hpc biosynthesis. EPO, ERFE and Hpc biosynthesis is modified by serum iron through transferrin receptor 2. Consequently, we investigated whether marathon-induced changes in EPO, ERFE and Hpc levels are blood iron-dependent. Twenty-nine healthy male marathon runners were analyzed. Serum iron, ferritin, transferrin, EPO, ERFE and Hpc levels were assessed before, immediately after, and 9 &plusmn, 2 days after the marathon. The runners whose serum Hpc decreased after the marathon (n = 15), showed a significant increase in ERFE levels. In athletes whose serum iron levels were below 105 &micro, g/day (n = 15), serum EPO (p = 0.00) and ERFE levels (p = 0.00) increased with no changes in Hpc concentration. However, in athletes with low serum iron, no changes in EPO levels were observed when serum ferritin exceeded 70 ng/mL (n = 7). Conversely, an increase in ERFE levels was observed in marathoners with low serum iron, independently of serum ferritin (n = 7). This indicates modulation of blood iron may affect exercise-induced changes in the EPO/ERFE/Hpc axis. Further study is needed to fully understand the physiological meaning of the interdependence between iron and the EPO/ERFE/Hpc axis.

Abstract: Aims: Guidelines recommend down-titration of loop diuretics (LD) once euvolaemia is achieved. In outpatients with heart failure (HF), we investigated LD dose changes in daily cardiology practice, agreement with guideline recommendations, predictors of successful LD down-titration and association between dose changes and outcomes. Methods and results: We included 8130 HF patients from the ESC-EORP Heart Failure Long-Term Registry. Among patients who had dose decreased, successful decrease was defined as the decrease not followed by death, HF hospitalization, New York Heart Association class deterioration, or subsequent increase in LD dose. Mean age was 66 ± 13 years, 71% men, 62% HF with reduced ejection fraction, 19% HF with mid-range ejection fraction, 19% HF with preserved ejection fraction. Median [interquartile range (IQR)] LD dose was 40 (25–80) mg. LD dose was increased in 16%, decreased in 8.3% and unchanged in 76%. Median (IQR) follow-up was 372 (363–419) days. Diuretic dose increase (vs. no change) was associated with HF death [hazard ratio (HR) 1.53, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.12–2.08; P = 0.008] and nominally with cardiovascular death (HR 1.25, 95% CI 0.96–1.63; P = 0.103). Decrease of diuretic dose (vs. no change) was associated with nominally lower HF (HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.33–1.07; P = 0.083) and cardiovascular mortality (HR 0.62,. 95% CI 0.38–1.00; P = 0.052). Among patients who had LD dose decreased, systolic blood pressure [odds ratio (OR) 1.11 per 10 mmHg increase, 95% CI 1.01–1.22; P = 0.032], and absence of (i) sleep apnoea (OR 0.24, 95% CI 0.09–0.69; P = 0.008), (ii) peripheral congestion (OR 0.48, 95% CI 0.29–0.80; P = 0.005), and (iii) moderate/severe mitral regurgitation (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.37–0.87; P = 0.008) were independently associated with successful decrease. Conclusion: Diuretic dose was unchanged in 76% and decreased in 8.3% of outpatients with chronic HF. LD dose increase was associated with worse outcomes, while the LD dose decrease group showed a trend for better outcomes compared with the no-change group. Higher systolic blood pressure, and absence of (i) sleep apnoea, (ii) peripheral congestion, and (iii) moderate/severe mitral regurgitation were independently associated with successful dose decrease. © 2020 European Society of Cardiology

Abstract: Aims: This study aimed to assess age- and sex-related differences in management and 1-year risk for all-cause mortality and hospitalization in chronic heart failure (HF) patients. Methods and results: Of 16 354 patients included in the European Society of Cardiology Heart Failure Long-Term Registry, 9428 chronic HF patients were analysed [median age: 66 years; 28.5% women; mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 37%]. Rates of use of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) were high (angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers, beta-blockers and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists: 85.7%, 88.7% and 58.8%, respectively). Crude GDMT utilization rates were lower in women than in men (all differences: P ≤ 0.001), and GDMT use became lower with ageing in both sexes, at baseline and at 1-year follow-up. Sex was not an independent predictor of GDMT prescription; however, age >75 years was a significant predictor of GDMT underutilization. Rates of all-cause mortality were lower in women than in men (7.1% vs. 8.7%; P = 0.015), as were rates of all-cause hospitalization (21.9% vs. 27.3%; P 75 years. Conclusions: There was a decline in GDMT use with advanced age in both sexes. Sex was not an independent predictor of GDMT or adverse outcomes. However, age >75 years independently predicted lower GDMT use and higher all-cause mortality in patients with LVEF ≤45%. © 2019 The Authors.

Subjects: cardiovascular diseases
Abstract: Aims: We assessed the interplay between hyperkalaemia (HK) and renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system inhibitor (RAASi) use, dose and discontinuation, and their association with all-cause or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic heart failure (HF). We hypothesized that HK-associated increased death may be related to RAASi withdrawal. Methods and results: The ESC-HFA-EORP Heart Failure Long-Term Registry was used. Among 9222 outpatients (HF with reduced ejection fraction: 60.6%, HF with mid-range ejection fraction: 22.9%, HF with preserved ejection fraction: 16.5%) from 31 countries, 16.6% had HK (≥5.0 mmol/L) at baseline. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) was used in 88.3%, a mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) in 58.7%, or a combination in 53.2%; of these, at ≥50% of target dose in ACEi: 61.8%; ARB: 64.7%; and MRA: 90.3%. At a median follow-up of 12.2 months, there were 789 deaths (8.6%). Both hypokalaemia and HK were independently. associated with higher mortality, and ACEi/ARB prescription at baseline with lower mortality. MRA prescription was not retained in the model. In multivariable analyses, HK at baseline was independently associated with MRA non-prescription at baseline and subsequent discontinuation. When considering subsequent discontinuation of RAASi (instead of baseline use), HK was no longer found associated with all-cause deaths. Importantly, all RAASi (ACEi, ARB, or MRA) discontinuations were strongly associated with mortality. Conclusions: In HF, hyper- and hypokalaemia were associated with mortality. However, when adjusting for RAASi discontinuation, HK was no longer associated with mortality, suggesting that HK may be a risk marker for RAASi discontinuation rather than a risk factor for worse outcomes. © 2020 European Society of Cardiology

Abstract: Aims: Classification of acute heart failure (AHF) patients into four clinical profiles defined by evidence of congestion and perfusion is advocated by the 2016 European Society of Cardiology (ESC)guidelines. Based on the ESC-EORP-HFA Heart Failure Long-Term Registry, we compared differences in baseline characteristics, in-hospital management and outcomes among congestion/perfusion profiles using this classification. Methods and results: We included 7865 AHF patients classified at admission as: ‘dry-warm’ (9.9%), ‘wet-warm’ (69.9%), ‘wet-cold’ (19.8%) and ‘dry-cold’ (0.4%). These groups differed significantly in terms of baseline characteristics, in-hospital management and outcomes. In-hospital mortality was 2.0% in ‘dry-warm’, 3.8% in ‘wet-warm’, 9.1% in ‘dry-cold’ and 12.1% in ‘wet-cold’ patients. Based on clinical classification at admission, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for 1-year mortality were: ‘wet-warm’ vs. ‘dry-warm’ 1.78 (1.43–2.21) and ‘wet-cold’ vs. ‘wet-warm’ 1.33 (1.19–1.48). For profiles resulting from discharge classification, the adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence interval) for 1-year mortality were: ‘wet-warm’ vs. ‘dry-warm’ 1.46 (1.31–1.63) and ‘wet-cold’ vs. ‘wet-warm’ 2.20 (1.89–2.56). Among patients discharged alive, 30.9% had residual congestion, and these patients had higher 1-year mortality compared to patients discharged without congestion (28.0 vs. 18.5%). Tricuspid regurgitation, diabetes, anaemia and high New York Heart Association class were independently associated with higher risk of congestion at discharge, while beta-blockers at admission, de novo heart failure, or any cardiovascular procedure during hospitalization were associated with lower risk of residual congestion. Conclusion: Classification based on congestion/perfusion status provides clinically relevant information at hospital admission and discharge. A better understanding of the clinical course of the two entities could play an important role towards the implementation of targeted strategies that may improve outcomes. © 2019 The Authors.

Abstract: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease with a high mortality and complex pathomechanism. Recent studies suggest an important role of genetic factors in the development of PAH. It was shown that patients with BMPR2 mutations present a disease at an earlier age and have more severe haemodynamics at diagnosis. Interestingly, in this disorder lifelong penetrance is estimated to be only about 20% and the mechanism of this phenomenon remains unknown. More recent studies focused on the mutational analysis of genes involved in TGFs signaling pathway in patients with PAH. The results of these studies are very promising but they still need to be confirmed. Moreover, data on the impact of identified mutations on the clinical course, PAH-specific treatment and prognosis in PAH is required. In Poland a multi-center study is planned to include patients from referral centers for pulmonary hypertension with diagnosed idiopathic, hereditary and drug-induced PAH or of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) and pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH). The aim of the study is to perform an extended molecular analysis for better understanding the molecular basis of pathogenesis of PAH, incomplete penetrance and to create an algorithm of molecular diagnosis of PAH patients. On the basis of the nationwide registry of patients with PAH treated in referral centers in Poland the effect of the detected mutations on the clinical course, the effect of PAH-specific treatment and the prognosis in PAH will be assessed.

Abstract: Purpose Interatrial block (IAB) frequently coexists with sinus node disease and is considered a risk factor of left atrial dysfunction, atrial arrhythmias, and heart failure development. Conventional right atrial appendage (RAA) pacing impairs intra- and interatrial conductions and consequently prolongs P wave duration. Biatrial (BiA) pacing helps correct IAB, but its advantageous influence remains controversial. The aim of the study was to compare the effects of BiA and RAA pacing on cardiac hemodynamics and serum concentrations of inflammatory markers and neuropeptides. Methods Twenty-eight patients with IAB and preserved atrio-ventricular conduction treated with BiA pacing were studied. Standard invasive hemodynamic measurements were performed during BiA and RAA pacings. Furthermore, the influence of 1 week of BiA and RAA pacing on neuropeptides: atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and markers of inflammation: high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and neopterin was examined. Results BiA pacing resulted in significant increase of cardiac output (CO) and reduction of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. We demonstrated significantly lower concentrations of ANP, hs-CRP, IL-6, and neopterin after 1 week of BiA in comparison to RAA pacing. BNP levels remained unchanged. Conclusions BiA pacing in comparison to RAA pacing improves hemodynamic performance in patients with IAB and preserved atrio-ventricular conduction. BiA pacing is associated with reduction of ANP and markers of inflammation (hs-CRP, IL-6, and neopterin).

Abstract: Objective: Available evidence suggests that inflammation may be associated with atrial fibrillation (AF). This prospective and observational study aimed to assess whether plasma neopterin (NPT) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels before and after electrical cardioversion (CV) predict AF recurrence. Methods: The study was designed as a prospective observational trial. Blood samples were collected (24 hours before, 24 h after CV, and 7 days after CV) in 60 patients with a dual-chamber pacemakar and preserved left ventricular systolic function who underwent successful CV of persistent AF. All significant parameters associated with AF recurrence lasting ≥30 min and detected by pacemaker data logs were evaluated in multivariate logistic regression analysis. Echocardiography was performed 7 days after CV in patients with sinus rhythm. The control group included 17 subjects without AF. Results: The analysis included 51 patients who remained in sinus rhythm 7 days after CV. During 12 months of follow-up, AF recurred in 46 patients. Baseline IL-6 levels did not differ between the two groups, but baseline NPT levels were higher in the study group than in the control group (19±7 vs. 11±5 nmol/mL, p
