Abstract: Background: The Italian Society of Echocardiography and Cardiovascular Imaging (SIECVI) conducted a national survey to understand better how different echocardiographic modalities are used and accessed in Italy. Methods: We analyzed echocardiography laboratory activities over a month (November 2022). Data were retrieved via an electronic survey based on a structured questionnaire, uploaded on the SIECVI website. Results: Data were obtained from 228 echocardiographic laboratories: 112 centers (49%) in the northern, 43 centers (19%) in the central, and 73 (32%) in the southern regions. During the month of observation, we collected 101,050 transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) examinations performed in all centers. As concern other modalities there were performed 5497 transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) examinations in 161/228 centers (71%); 4057 stress echocardiography (SE) examinations in 179/228 centers (79%); and examinations with ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) in 151/228 centers (66%). We did not find significant regional variations between the different modalities. The usage of picture archiving and communication system (PACS) was significantly higher in the northern (84%) versus central (49%) and southern (45%) centers (P < 0.001). Lung ultrasound (LUS) was performed in 154 centers (66%), without difference between cardiology and noncardiology centers. The evaluation of left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction was evaluated mainly using the qualitative method in 223 centers (94%), occasionally with the Simpson method in 193 centers (85%), and with selective use of the three-dimensional (3D) method in only 23 centers (10%). 3D TTE was present in 137 centers (70%), and 3D TEE in all centers where TEE was done (71%). The assessment of LV diastolic function was done routinely in 80% of the centers. Right ventricular function was evaluated using tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion in all centers, using tricuspid valve annular systolic velocity by tissue

Abstract: The Italian survey on CardiAc RehabilitatiOn and Secondary prevention after cardiac revascularization (ICAROS) was a multicenter, prospective, longitudinal survey carried out by the Italian Association on Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation (GICR/IACPR) in patients on completion of a CR program after coronary artery by pass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The aim was to evaluate in the short and medium term: i) the cardioprotective drug prescription, modification and adherence; ii) the achievement and maintenance of recommended lifestyle targets and risk factor control and their association with cardiovascular events; iii) the predictors of non-adherence to therapy and lifestyle recommendations. The ICAROS results offers a portrait of the “real world” of clinical practice concerning patients after CABG and PCI, and stresses the need to improve secondary prevention care after the index event: many patients after revascularization leave the acute wards without an optimal prescription of preventive medication but the prescription of cardiopreventive drugs and risk factors control is excellent after completion of a CR program. Following CR, the maintenance of evidence-based drugs and lifestyle adherence at one year is fairly good as far as the target goals of secondary prevention are concerned, but to investigate the influence of CR on long term outcome longer term studies are required. Last, but not least, ICAROS shows that some characteristics (PCI as index event, living alone, poor eating habits or smoking in young age, and old age, in particular with comorbidities) may identify patients with poor behavioral modification in the medium term follow-up and in these patients further support may be warranted. In conclusion, participation in CR results in excellent treatment after revascularization, as well as a good lifestyle and medication adherence at 1 year and provides further confirmation of the the benefit of secondary prevention.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Statin therapy reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and the risk of cardiovascular events, but whether the addition of ezetimibe, a nonstatin drug that reduces intestinal cholesterol absorption, can reduce the rate of cardiovascular events further is not known.METHODS: We conducted a double-blind, randomized trial involving 18,144 patients who had been hospitalized for an acute coronary syndrome within the preceding 10 days and had LDL cholesterol levels of 50 to 100 mg per deciliter (1.3 to 2.6 mmol per liter) if they were receiving lipid-lowering therapy or 50 to 125 mg per deciliter (1.3 to 3.2 mmol per liter) if they were not receiving lipid-lowering therapy. The combination of simvastatin (40 mg) and ezetimibe (10 mg) (simvastatin-ezetimibe) was compared with simvastatin (40 mg) and placebo (simvastatin monotherapy). The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina requiring rehospitalization, coronary revascularization (≥30 days after randomization), or nonfatal stroke. The median follow-up was 6 years.RESULTS: The median time-weighted average LDL cholesterol level during the study was 53.7 mg per deciliter (1.4 mmol per liter) in the simvastatin-ezetimibe group, as compared with 69.5 mg per deciliter (1.8 mmol per liter) in the simvastatin-monotherapy group (PCONCLUSIONS: When added to statin therapy, ezetimibe resulted in incremental lowering of LDL cholesterol levels and improved cardiovascular outcomes. Moreover, lowering LDL cholesterol to levels below previous targets provided additional benefit. (Funded by Merck; IMPROVE-IT ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00202878.).

Abstract: Background and aim: Secondary prevention is a priority after coronary revascularization. We investigate the impact of a cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program on lifestyle, risk factors and medication modifications and analyze predictors of poor behavioral changes and events in patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: Multicenter (n = 62), prospective, longitudinal survey in post-CABG or -PCI consecutive patients after a comprehensive CR program. Cardiac risk factors, lifestyle habits, medication and 1 year cardiovascular events were collected. Logistic regression analyzed the association between risk factors, events and predictors of non-adherence to treatment and lifestyle. Results: At 1 year, of the 1262 patients (66 ± 10 years, CABG 69%, PCI 31%), 94% were taking antiplatelet agents (vs. 91.8% at CR admission and 91.7% at CR discharge, p = ns), 87% statins (vs. 67.5%, p

Abstract: Background— Moderate, regular alcohol consumption is generally associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular events but data in patients with chronic heart failure are scarce. We evaluated the relations between wine consumption, health status, circulating biomarkers, and clinical outcomes in a large Italian population of patients with chronic heart failure enrolled in a multicenter clinical trial. Methods and Results— A brief questionnaire on dietary habits was administered at baseline to 6973 patients enrolled in the Gruppo Italiano per lo Studio della Sopravvivenza nell’Insufficienza Cardiaca-Heart Failure (GISSI-HF) trial. The relations between wine consumption, fatal and nonfatal clinical end points, quality of life, symptoms of depression, and circulating biomarkers of cardiac function and inflammation (in subsets of patients) were evaluated with simple and multivariable-adjusted statistical models. Almost 56% of the patients reported drinking at least 1 glass of wine per day. After adjustment, clinical outcomes were not significantly different in the predefined 4 groups of wine consumption. However, patients with more frequent wine consumption had a significantly better perception of health status (Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire score, adjusted P P =0.01), and lower plasma levels of biomarkers of vascular inflammation (osteoprotegerin and C-terminal proendothelin-1, adjusted P P =0.01) after adjusting for possible confounders. Conclusions— We show for the first time in a large cohort of patients with chronic heart failure that moderate wine consumption is associated with a better perceived and objective health status, lower prevalence of depression, and less vascular inflammation, but does not translate into more favorable clinical 4-year outcomes.

9. Transient heart failure occurring in the acute and/or rehabilitative phase after coronary revascularization as a determinant of 1-year prognosis

Subjects: coronary revascularization, Transient heart failure, rehabilitative
Abstract: Transient heart failure (THF) after cardiac events is associated to worse cardiovascular prognosis, however little is known about THF occurring in the acute and rehabilitative phase following coronary artery bypass grafting and percutaneous coronary intervention interventions. To address this issue, patients in the Italian survey on cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention after cardiac revascularization (ICAROS) were analysed for time of onset, associated factors, and outcome of THF. ICAROS was a prospective, multicentre registry involving 1,262 patients discharged from 62 cardiac rehabilitation (CR) facilities nationwide, comprehensive of risk factors, lifestyle habits, drug treatments, and major cardiovascular events (MACE) assessment during a 1-year follow-up. THF was defined either as signs and symptoms consistent with decompensation or patients presenting with either cardiogenic shock or pulmonary oedema. Overall, 96 (7.6%) patients developed THF after coronary revascularization, with 69.8% of cases in acute wards, 22.9% during CR, and 7.3% in both settings. THF affected more frequently patients with chronic heart failure or long history of coronary artery disease (42.7% versus 30.6% in patients without chronic cardiac condition, p < 0.005). Age 75 years (33.3%), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (19.8%), and chronic renal failure (17.7%) were also significantly more represented in the THF group. At the end of CR, THF patients were prescribed more diuretics (78.9% non-potassium sparing, 36.8% potassium sparing) insulin (17.9%), and anticoagulants (32.3%). During follow-up, THF patients maintained similar rates of ongoing cardioprotective drugs as compared to controls, with less prescription of statins (64.6% versus 82.2%, p < 0.001). The case crossover comparison between the end of CR and after one year showed good persistence of reninangiotensin- aldosterone system modulators (90.6%) and beta-blockers (83.3%). Mortality (8.3% versus 1.6%, p < 0.001) and MACEs (21.9% versus 8.1%, p < 0.001) occurred more frequently among THF patients; further episodes of decompensated heart failure (10.4 versus 2.4%, p < 0.001) were the most represented events. THF independently predicted adverse outcome with a OR for recurrent events of 2.451 (CI 1.403-4.282), as compared to patients without THF. THF is a major determinant of prognosis after coronary revascularization, with a good predictive value also for episodes occurring during the CR program.

During follow-up, THF patients maintained similar rates of ongoing cardioprotective drugs as compared to controls, with less prescription of statins (64.6% versus 82.2%, p < 0.001). The case crossover comparison between the end of CR and after one year showed good persistence of reninangiotensin- aldosterone system modulators (90.6%) and beta-blockers (83.3%). Mortality (8.3% versus 1.6%, p < 0.001) and MACEs (21.9% versus 8.1%, p < 0.001) occurred more frequently among THF patients; further episodes of decompensated heart failure (10.4 versus 2.4%, p < 0.001) were the most represented events. THF independently predicted adverse outcome with a OR for recurrent events of 2.451 (CI 1.403-4.282), as compared to patients without THF. THF is a major determinant of prognosis after coronary revascularization, with a good predictive value also for episodes occurring during the CR program.

Abstract: In this paper, the Italian Society of Cardiac Rehabilitation and Prevention (GICR) presents the third survey on the status of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in Italy. The Italian SurveY on carDiac rEhabilitation 2008 (ISYDE 2008) is a multicenter, observational study aimed at identifying the number and characteristics of Italian CR facilities, both in terms of health operators and interventions. Clinical records of all patients consecutively discharged within the whole network--composed of up to 200 CR units--from January 28 to February 10, 2008 will also be reviewed for diagnosis of admission, comorbidities, rehabilitation programs, and drug therapy, in order to obtain a snapshot of current implementation strategies in daily clinical practice. The survey will adopt a web-based methodology for data provision and transmission. Preliminary results of the survey are expected in the late summer 2008.

Abstract: Statin therapy reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and the risk of cardiovascular events, but whether the addition of ezetimibe, a nonstatin drug that reduces intestinal cholesterol absorption, can reduce the rate of cardiovascular events further is not known. We conducted a double-blind, randomized trial involving 18,144 patients who had been hospitalized for an acute coronary syndrome within the preceding 10 days and had LDL cholesterol levels of 50 to 100 mg per deciliter (1.3 to 2.6 mmol per liter) if they were receiving lipid-lowering therapy or 50 to 125 mg per deciliter (1.3 to 3.2 mmol per liter) if they were not receiving lipid-lowering therapy. The combination of simvastatin (40 mg) and ezetimibe (10 mg) (simvastatin-ezetimibe) was compared with simvastatin (40 mg) and placebo (simvastatin monotherapy). The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina requiring rehospitalization, coronary revascularization (≥30 days after randomization), or nonfatal stroke. The median follow-up was 6 years. The median time-weighted average LDL cholesterol level during the study was 53.7 mg per deciliter (1.4 mmol per liter) in the simvastatin-ezetimibe group, as compared with 69.5 mg per deciliter (1.8 mmol per liter) in the simvastatin-monotherapy group (P<0.001). The Kaplan-Meier event rate for the primary end point at 7 years was 32.7% in the simvastatin-ezetimibe group, as compared with 34.7% in the simvastatin-monotherapy group (absolute risk difference, 2.0 percentage points; hazard ratio, 0.936; 95% confidence interval, 0.89 to 0.99; P=0.016). Rates of prespecified muscle, gallbladder, and hepatic adverse effects and cancer were similar in the two groups. When added to statin therapy, ezetimibe resulted in incremental lowering of LDL cholesterol levels and improved cardiovascular outcomes. Moreover, lowering LDL cholesterol to levels below previous targets provided additional benef

23. Distance walked in the 6-minute test soon after cardiac surgery: toward an efficient use in the individual patient.

Author: Opasich C, De Feo S, Pinna GD, Furgi G, Pedretti R, Scrutinio D, and Tramarin R
Abstract: STUDY OBJECTIVES: To describe the results of the 6-min walking test performed on admission to an intensive rehabilitation program after cardiac surgery and to develop, through an algorithm based on a few clinical indicators, reference tables in order to apply distance walked values more efficiently in the individual patient at his/her entry into a cardiac rehabilitation program. SETTING: Intensive cardiac rehabilitation units. PATIENTS AND INTERVENTION: A total of 2,555 consecutive patients admitted between January 2001 and December 2002 to the Cardiac Rehabilitation Department of the S. Maugeri Foundation early after cardiac surgery performed a 6-min walking test within the fourth day of hospital admission. RESULTS: The mean walked distance was 296 +/- 111 m (+/- SD). At multiple regression analysis, age, sex, and comorbidity were independent predictors of walking test performance. The left ventricular ejection fraction only influenced the walked distance in men. Starting from these variables, we propose an algorithm and specific reference tables. CONCLUSIONS: Reference values for gender-, age-, comorbidity-, and systolic function-related test performance in patients after cardiac surgery at the beginning of the rehabilitative phase are provided. Once a new patient has been categorized through simple parameters, the actual distance walked could be compared with the matched reference value, thus making the interpretation of the result more efficient. The walked distance might be used to define different levels of disability and to personalize therapeutic exercise prescriptions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: From January 28th to February 10th 2008, the Italian Association for Cardiovascular Prevention, Rehabilitation and Epidemiology (IACPR-GICR) conducted the ISYDE- 2008 study, the primary aim of which was to take a detailed snapshot of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) provision in Italy – in terms of number and distribution of facilities, staffing levels, organization and setting – and compare the actual CR provision with the recommendations of national guidelines for CR and secondary prevention. The secondary aim was to describe the patient population currently being referred to CR and the components of the programs offered. Out of 190 cardiac rehabilitation centers existing in Italy in 2008, 165 (87%) took part in the study. On a national basis, there is one CR unit every 299,977 inhabitants: in northern Italy there is one CR unit every 263,578 inhabitants, while in central and southern Italy there is one every 384,034 and 434,170 inhabitants, respectively. The majority of CR units are located in public hospitals (59%), the remainder in privately owned health care organizations (41%). Fifty-nine percent are located in hospitals providing both acute and rehabilitation care, 32% are in specifically dedicated rehabilitation structures, while 8% operate in the context of residential long term care for chronic conditions. Almost three-quarters of CR units currently operating are linked to dedicated cardiology divisions (74%), 5% are linked to physical medicine and rehabilitation divisions, 2% to internal medicine, and 19% to cardiac surgery and other divisions. Inhospital care is provided by 62.4% of the centers; outpatient care is provided on a day-hospital basis by 10.9% of facilities and on an ambulatory basis by 20%. The CR units are led in 86% of cases by a cardiologist and in only 14% of cases by specialists in internal medicine, geriatrics, physical medicine and rehabilitation, pneumology or other disciplines. In terms of staffing, each cardiac rehabilitation unit has 4.0±2.7 dedicated physicians (range 1-16, mode 2), 10.1±8.0 nurses, 3.3±2.5 physiotherapists (range 0 – 20; 16% of services have no physiotherapist in the rehabilitation team), 1.5±0.8 psychologists, and a dietitian (present in 62% of CR units). Phase II CR programs are available in 67.9% of cases in residential (inpatient) and in 30.9% of cases in outpatient (day-hospital and ambulatory) settings. Phase III programs are offered by 56.4% of the centers in ambulatory outpatient regime, and on an at home basis by 4.8% with telecare supervision, 7.3% without. Long term secondary prevention follow up programs are provided by 42.4% of CR services.

Abstract: Background The independent prognostic impact of diabetes mellitus ( DM ) and prediabetes mellitus (pre‐ DM ) on survival outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure has been investigated in observational registries and randomized, clinical trials, but the results have been often inconclusive or conflicting. We examined the independent prognostic impact of DM and pre‐ DM on survival outcomes in the GISSI ‐HF (Gruppo Italiano per lo Studio della Sopravvivenza nella Insufficienza Cardiaca‐Heart Failure) trial. Methods and Results We assessed the risk of all‐cause death and the composite of all‐cause death or cardiovascular hospitalization over a median follow‐up period of 3.9 years among the 6935 chronic heart failure participants of the GISSI ‐ HF trial, who were stratified by presence of DM (n=2852), pre‐ DM (n=2013), and non‐ DM (n=2070) at baseline. Compared with non‐ DM patients, those with DM had remarkably higher incidence rates of all‐cause death (34.5% versus 24.6%) and the composite end point (63.6% versus 54.7%). Conversely, both event rates were similar between non‐ DM patients and those with pre‐ DM . Cox regression analysis showed that DM , but not pre‐ DM , was associated with an increased risk of all‐cause death (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.43; 95% CI , 1.28–1.60) and of the composite end point (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.23; 95% CI , 1.13–1.32), independently of established risk factors. In the DM subgroup, higher hemoglobin A1c was also independently associated with increased risk of both study outcomes (all‐cause death: adjusted hazard ratio, 1.21; 95% CI , 1.02–1.43; and composite end point: adjusted hazard ratio, 1.14; 95% CI , 1.01–1.29, respectively). Conclusions Presence of DM was independently associated with poor long‐term survival outcomes in patients with chronic heart failure. Clinical Trial Registration URL : http://www.clinicaltrials.gov .

Abstract: Patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) have high cardiovascular event rates. The additional effect of MetS on left ventricular (LV) systolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unknown. We studied the relation between MetS and LV systolic function in T2DM patients without coronary artery disease (CAD). Clinical and echocardiographic data from 331 T2DM patients were analyzed. Prevalence of MetS was assessed based on NCEP ATPIII definition. Stress-corrected midwall shortening (sc-MS) and mitral annular peak systolic velocity (S’) were analyzed as indexes of circumferential and longitudinal shortening, respectively. Sc-MS was impaired if

Abstract: Background: The Italian Society of Echography and Cardiovascular Imaging (SIECVI) conducted a national survey to understand the volumes of activity, modalities and stressors used during stress echocardiography (SE) in Italy., Methods: We analyzed echocardiography laboratory activities over a month (November 2022). Data were retrieved through an electronic survey based on a structured questionnaire, uploaded on the SIECVI website., Results: Data were obtained from 228 echocardiographic laboratories, and SE examinations were performed in 179 centers (80.6%): 87 centers (47.5%) were in the northern regions of Italy, 33 centers (18.4%) were in the central regions, and 61 (34.1%) in the southern regions. We annotated a total of 4057 SE. We divided the SE centers into three groups, according to the numbers of SE performed: <10 SE (low-volume activity, 40 centers), between 10 and 39 SE (moderate volume activity, 102 centers) and ≥40 SE (high volume activity, 37 centers). Dipyridamole was used in 139 centers (77.6%); exercise in 120 centers (67.0%); dobutamine in 153 centers (85.4%); pacing in 37 centers (21.1%); and adenosine in 7 centers (4.0%). We found a significant difference between the stressors used and volume of activity of the centers, with a progressive increase in the prevalence of number of stressors from low to high volume activity ( P = 0.033). The traditional evaluation of regional wall motion of the left ventricle was performed in all centers, with combined assessment of coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) in 90 centers (50.3%): there was a significant difference in the centers with different volume of SE activity: the incidence of analysis of CFVR was significantly higher in high volume centers compared to low - moderate - volume (32.5%, 41.0% and 73.0%, respectively, P < 0.001). The lung ultrasound (LUS) was assessed in 67 centers (37.4%). Furthermore for LUS, we found a significant difference in the centers with different volume of SE activity: significantly higher in high volume centers compared to low - moderate - volume (25.0%, 35.3% and 56.8%, respectively, P < 0.001)., Conclusions: This nationwide survey demonstrated that SE was significantly widespread and practiced throughout Italy. In addition to the traditional indication to coronary artery disease based on regional wall motion analysis, other indications are emerging with an increase in the use of LUS and CFVR, especially in high-volume centers., Competing Interests: There are no conflicts of interest., (Copyright: © 2023 Journal of Cardiovascular Echography.)

Abstract: Background: The Italian Society of Echocardiography and Cardiovascular Imaging (SIECVI) conducted a national survey to understand better how different echocardiographic modalities are used and accessed in Italy., Methods: We analyzed echocardiography laboratory activities over a month (November 2022). Data were retrieved via an electronic survey based on a structured questionnaire, uploaded on the SIECVI website., Results: Data were obtained from 228 echocardiographic laboratories: 112 centers (49%) in the northern, 43 centers (19%) in the central, and 73 (32%) in the southern regions. During the month of observation, we collected 101,050 transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) examinations performed in all centers. As concern other modalities there were performed 5497 transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) examinations in 161/228 centers (71%); 4057 stress echocardiography (SE) examinations in 179/228 centers (79%); and examinations with ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) in 151/228 centers (66%). We did not find significant regional variations between the different modalities. The usage of picture archiving and communication system (PACS) was significantly higher in the northern (84%) versus central (49%) and southern (45%) centers ( P < 0.001). Lung ultrasound (LUS) was performed in 154 centers (66%), without difference between cardiology and noncardiology centers. The evaluation of left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction was evaluated mainly using the qualitative method in 223 centers (94%), occasionally with the Simpson method in 193 centers (85%), and with selective use of the three-dimensional (3D) method in only 23 centers (10%). 3D TTE was present in 137 centers (70%), and 3D TEE in all centers where TEE was done (71%). The assessment of LV diastolic function was done routinely in 80% of the centers. Right ventricular function was evaluated using tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion in all centers, using tricuspid valve annular systolic velocity by tissue Doppler imaging in 53% of the centers, and using fractional area change in 33% of the centers. When we divided into cardiology (179, 78%) and noncardiology (49, 22%) centers, we found significant differences in the SE (93% vs. 26%, P < 0.001), TEE (85% vs. 18%), UCA (67% vs. 43%, P < 0001), and STE (87% vs. 20%, P < 0.001). The incidence of LUS evaluation was similar between the cardiology and noncardiology centers (69% vs. 61%, P = NS)., Conclusions: This nationwide survey demonstrated that digital infrastructures and advanced echocardiography modalities, such as 3D and STE, are widely available in Italy with a notable diffuse uptake of LUS in the core TTE examination, a suboptimal diffusion of PACS recording, and conservative use of UCA, 3D, and strain. There are significant differences between northern and central-southern regions and echocardiographic laboratories that pertain to the cardiac unit. This inhomogeneous distribution of technology represents one of the main issues that must be solved to standardize the practice of echocardiography., Competing Interests: There are no conflicts of interest., (Copyright: © 2023 Journal of Cardiovascular Echography.)

Abstract: Patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) have high cardiovascular event rates. The additional effect of MetS on left ventricular (LV) systolic function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is unknown. We studied the relation between MetS and LV systolic function in T2DM patients without coronary artery disease (CAD). Clinical and echocardiographic data from 331 T2DM patients were analyzed. Prevalence of MetS was assessed based on NCEP ATPIII definition. Stress-corrected midwall shortening (sc-MS) and mitral annular peak systolic velocity (S') were analyzed as indexes of circumferential and longitudinal shortening, respectively. Sc-MS was impaired if <89 %, S' if <8.5 cm/s (10th percentile of healthy controls). MetS was diagnosed in 172 patients. Sc-MS and S' were similar in T2DM patients with and without MetS (91 ± 14 vs 92 ± 15 %; 9.8 ± 2.0 vs 9.5 ± 2.1 cm/s, respectively; p = ns) but significantly reduced comparing to controls (102 ± 11 % and 10.8 cm/s; p < 0.0001). Impairment of sc-MS and S' were detected in 37 vs 40 % and in 29 vs 32 % of T2DM patients with and without MetS (p = ns), respectively. LV systolic function measured as sc-MS and S' is frequently impaired in T2DM patients without CAD; however, the coexistence of MetS is not associated with more severe LV systolic dysfunction. Further pathological mechanisms have to be considered to explain the negative prognostic impact of MetS in T2DM patients.

Abstract: Background: Using data from the Italian SurveY on carDiac rEhabilitation (ISYDE-2008), this study provides insight into the level of implementation of Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) in patients with diabetes., Methods: Data from 165 CR units were collected online from January 28th to February 10th, 2008., Results: The study cohort consisted of 2281 patients (66.9 ± 12 yrs); 475 (69.7 ± 10 yrs, 74% male) patients with diabetes and 1806 (66.2 ± 12 yrs, 72% male) non-diabetic patients. Compared to non-diabetic patients, patients with diabetes were older and showed more comorbidity [myocardial infarction (32% vs. 19%, p < 0.0001), peripheral artery disease (10% vs. 5%, p < 0.0001), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (20% vs. 11%, p < 0.0001), chronic kidney disease (20% vs. 6%, p < 0.0001), and cognitive impairment (5% vs. 2%, p = 0.0009), respectively], and complications during CR [re-infarction (3% vs. 1%, p = 0.04), acute renal failure (9% vs. 4%, p < 0.0001), sternal revision (3% vs. 1%, p = 0.01), inotropic support/mechanical assistance (7% vs. 4%, p = 0.01), respectively]; a more complex clinical course and interventions with less functional evaluation and a different pattern of drug therapy at hospital discharge. Notably, in 51 (3%) and in 104 (6%) of the non-diabetic cohort, insulin and hypoglycemic agents were prescribed, respectively, at hospital discharge from CR suggesting a careful evaluation of the glycemic metabolism during CR program, independent of the diagnosis at the admission. Mortality was similar among diabetic compared to non-diabetic patients (1% vs. 0.5%, p = 0.23)., Conclusions: This survey provided a detailed overview of the clinical characteristics, complexity and more severe clinical course of diabetic patients admitted to CR., (Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Abstract: Objectives: In patients with chronic pressure overload, higher left atrial systolic force (LASF) is associated with high-risk cardiovascular (CV) phenotype, with increased left ventricular (LV) mass, concentric hypertrophy, and diastolic dysfunction. In hypertension and aortic stenosis, LASF predicts increased rate of CV events independent of traditional risk factors. Moreover, LASF is an independent predictor of heart failure in diabetic and nondiabetic patients. Limited data are available about LASF and its relationship with LV systolic function in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)., Methods: We used baseline clinic and echocardiographic data from 333 patients recruited in the SHORTWAVE study evaluating LV and left atrial performance in T2DM patients without cardiac disease. LASF was calculated by Manning's method and defined high when exceeded 16 Kdynes (90th percentile of LASF found in 120 healthy subjects used as controls)., Results: Mean LASF was 15.8 Â ± 9.4 Kdynes/cm(2) and showed a close positive correlation with peak mitral annular systolic velocity (function of LV longitudinal fibers), independent of E/E', age, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, and concentric geometry (multiple R = 0.57, P < 0.0001). Such independent correlation (tested in patients with and without concomitant hypertension) was confirmed at multiple logistic regression analysis where patients were dichotomized for having high (119 = 36%) or normal LASF., Conclusions: High LASF is present in one third of T2DM patients without overt cardiac disease and is positively and independently related to an increased LV longitudinal shortening function, suggesting a close interaction between LV systolic and diastolic function., (© 2014, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.)

Abstract: The occurrence of heart failure during the whole pre-discharge course of coronary revascularization, as far as its influence on subsequent prognosis, is poorly understood. The present study examined the effect of transient heart failure (THF) developing in the acute and rehabilitative phase on survival after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients in the Italian survey on cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention after cardiac revascularization (ICAROS) were analyzed for THF, the latter being defined either as signs and symptoms consistent with decompensation or cardiogenic shock. ICAROS was a prospective, multicenter registry of 1,262 consecutive patients discharged from 62 cardiac rehabilitation (CR) facilities, providing data on risk factors, lifestyle habits, drug treatments, and major cardiovascular events (MACE) during a 1-year follow-up. Records were linked to the official website of the Italian Association of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation (GICR-IACPR). The overall prevalence of pre-discharge THF was 7.6%, with 69.8% of cases in acute wards, 22.9% during CR, and 7.3% in both settings. THF affected more frequently patients with chronic cardiac condition (42.7 vs. 30.6%; p < 0.05), age ≥75 years (33.3 vs. 23.1%; p < 0.005), COPD (19.8 vs. 12.3%; p < 0.05), and chronic kidney disease (17.7 vs. 7%; p < 0.001). After discharge, THF patients showed good maintenance rates of RAAS modulators (90.6%) and beta-blockers (83.3%), while statin therapy significantly decreased from 81.3 to 64.6% (p < 0.05). The pursuit of secondary prevention targets, as far as self-reported drug adherence, was not different among groups. Patients with THF had increased 1-year mortality (8.3 vs. 1.6%, p < 0.001). Moreover, THF independently predicted adverse outcome with OR for recurrent events (mainly further episodes of decompensation) of 2.4 (CI 1.4-4.3). Patients who experienced THF after coronary revascularization had increased post-discharge mortality and cardiovascular events. Hemodynamic instability, rather than recurrent myocardial ischemia, seems to be linked with worse prognosis.

44. Combined circumferential and longitudinal left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without myocardial ischemia.

Author: Cioffi G, Faganello G, De Feo S, Berlinghieri N, Tarantini L, Di Lenarda A, Pinamonti B, Candido R, and Faggiano P
Abstract: Background/objective: Left ventricular (LV) circumferential or longitudinal shortening may be impaired in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). In the present study, patients with type 2 DM without myocardial ischemia and combined impairment of circumferential and longitudinal (C+L) shortening were studied to assess the prevalence and factors associated with this condition., Methods: Data from 386 patients with type 2 DM enrolled in the SHORTening of midWall and longitudinAl left Ventricular fibers in diabEtes study were analyzed. One hundred twenty healthy subjects were used to define C+L dysfunction. Stress-corrected midwall shortening and mitral annular peak systolic velocity were considered as indexes of C+L shortening and classified as low if <89% and <8.5 cm/s, respectively (10th percentiles of controls)., Results: Combined C+L dysfunction was detected in 66 patients (17%). The variables associated with this condition were lower glomerular filtration rate (OR 0.98 [95% CI 0.96 to 0.99], greater LV mass (OR 1.05 [95% CI 1.02 to 1.08]), high pulmonary artery wedge pressure (OR 1.23 [95% CI 1.04 to 1.44]) and mitral annular calcifications (OR 3.35 [95% CI 1.71 to 6.55]). Considering the entire population, the relationship between stress-corrected midwall shortening and peak systolic velocity was poor (r=0.20), and the model was linear. The relationship was considerably closer and nonlinear in patients with combined C+L dysfunction (r=0.61; P<0.001), having the best fit by cubic function., Conclusions: Combined C+L dysfunction was present in one-sixth of patients with type 2 DM without myocardial ischemia. This condition was associated with reduced renal function, worse hemodynamic status and structural LV abnormalities, and may be considered a preclinical risk factor for heart failure.

Abstract: Aims: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with higher risk of heart failure. Over the last three decades several studies demonstrated the presence of asymptomatic systolic and/or diastolic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (asymLVD) in patients with normal LV ejection fraction (LVEF). Purpose of our study was to assess the prevalence and factors associated with asymLVD in DM patients by echocardiographic indexes more sensitive than LVEF and transmitral flow detected by pulsed Doppler., Methods: 386 DM patients without overt cardiac disease were enrolled from January to October 2011. Stress-corrected midwall shortening (sc-MS) and mitral annular peak systolic velocity (S') were considered as indexes of systolic function of circumferential and longitudinal myocardial fibers, respectively. Early diastolic velocity of transmitral flow was divided by early diastolic Tissue Doppler velocity of mitral annulus for identifying diastolic LVD., Results: asymLVD was detected in 262 patients (68%). 106 (27%) had isolated systolic asymLVD, 61 (16%) isolated diastolic asymLVD; in 95 (25%) systolic and diastolic asymLVD coexisted. Patients with asymLVD were older, had lower glomerular filtration rate, higher levels of glycated hemoglobin, C reactive protein, LV mass, relative wall thickness and prevalence of valve calcifications. Older age (HR 1.1 [1.02-1.18], p=0.01), aortic valve calcifications (HR 6.3 [1.31-30.31], p=0.02), LV concentric geometry defined as relative wall thickness ≥0.43 (HR 15.44 [2.96-80.44], p=0.001) were independent predictors of asymLVD at multivariate analysis., Conclusions: Using suitable echocardiographic indexes, asymLVD is detectable in two/third of DM patients without overt cardiac disease and is predicted by older age, cardiac valve calcifications and LV concentric remodeling., (Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Abstract: Purpose: In recent years epidemiological and clinical evidence has shown gender disparities in several aspects of cardiovascular disease. Aim of this study was to identify gender differences in the clinical profile and management of patients admitted to cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs., Population: Patients enrolled in the ISYDE-2008 survey were considered., Results: The ISYDE-2008 survey enrolled 2281 patients; 604 (26.5%) were women. Compared to men, women were older (mean age 70.8 ± 11.5 versus men's 65.6 ± 11.5 years), had less traditional risk factors (low cardiovascular risk profile in 45.3% of women and 38.0% of men, p=0.003), were more frequently admitted after valvular surgery and heart failure, but less for post-acute myocardial infarction and post-by-pass procedure. Women were more frequently admitted to an in-hospital rehabilitation program. Women showed a more complicated acute and rehabilitative course, with 63.2% of them having at least one complication during acute-phase, compared to 52.5% of men, and 48.3% during rehabilitation, compared to 35.0% of men (p<0.0001). During rehabilitation, women underwent exercise tests less frequently, except for the 6-minute walking test. At discharge, women received ACE-inhibitors/ARBs, β-blockers, statins, omega-3 fatty acids, antiplatelet agents less frequently, but more frequently digoxin, amiodarone, diuretics, oral anticoagulants, insulin and anti-depressive drugs. The duration of the rehabilitation program was longer for women. Mortality was very low in the entire population., Conclusions: Women are less frequently admitted to CR than men. They are older and show a greater cardiovascular burden. Women are more likely to be enrolled in CR after valvular surgery and heart failure than men., (Copyright © 2011 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Abstract: The Italian survey on CardiAc RehabilitatiOn and Secondary prevention after cardiac revascularization (ICAROS) was a multicenter, prospective, longitudinal survey carried out by the Italian Association on Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation (GICR/IACPR) in patients on completion of a CR program after coronary artery by pass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The aim was to evaluate in the short and medium-term: i) the cardioprotective drug prescription, modification and adherence; ii) the achievement and maintenance of recommended lifestyle targets and risk factor control and their association with cardiovascular events; iii) the predictors of non-adherence to therapy and lifestyle recommendations. The ICAROS results offers a portrait of the "real world" of clinical practice concerning patients after CABG and PCI, and stresses the need to improve secondary prevention care after the index event: many patients after revascularization leave the acute wards without an optimal prescription of preventive medication but the prescription of cardiopreventive drugs and risk factors control is excellent after completion of a CR program. Following CR, the maintenance of evidence-based drugs and lifestyle adherence at one year is fairly good as far as the target goals of secondary prevention are concerned, but to investigate the influence of CR on long-term outcome longer-term studies are required. Last, but not least, ICAROS shows that some characteristics (PCI as index event, living alone, poor eating habits or smoking in young age, and old age, in particular with comorbidities) may identify patients with poor behavioral modification in the medium-term follow-up and in these patients further support may be warranted. In conclusion, participation in CR results in excellent treatment after revascularization, as well as a good lifestyle and medication adherence at 1 year and provides further confirmation of the the benefit of secondary prevention.

48. [Acquired and congenital heart diseases during pregancy].

Author: De Feo S, Iacovoni A, and Faggiano P
Subjects: Female, Humans, Pregnancy, Heart Diseases congenital, Heart Diseases diagnosis, Pregnancy Complications, Cardiovascular diagnosis
Abstract: Heart diseases are the leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. The number of patients with congenital heart diseases reaching childbearing age, as well as the proportion of women with acquired conditions, such as ischemic heart disease, becoming pregnant is constantly increasing. All women with known heart disease should have pre-pregnancy counseling, to assess maternal and fetal risk. Women at moderate or high risk should be under the care of a specialist prenatal team with experience in managing women with heart disease during pregnancy. Conditions that are considered at particularly high risk (mortality >10%) include Marfan syndrome with dilated aortic root, severe left ventricular dysfunction, severe left heart obstructive lesions, and pulmonary hypertension. Peripartum cardiomyopathy is a rare and potentially fatal disease related to pregnancy and the postnatal period that presents with symptoms of congestion and/or hypoperfusion and may rapidly progress to acute and life-threatening heart failure. However, the majority of women with heart disease can tolerate pregnancy; therefore an adequate multidisciplinary approach with the gynecologist, anesthesiologist and cardiologist should be advocated in order to reduce maternal and fetal risks associated with pregnancy.

Five years later, a questionnaire has been proposed to each Italian Regional President of the Association, in order to assess the implementation of the proposed management strategies in the different clinical scenarios of the Italian Regions. Although the Document utilization is not homogeneous through Italy, it is still considered a valuable tool of work.

Abstract: Background: Cardiovascular complications, such as death, myocardial infarction, or heart failure, are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in adult patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery., Objective: To evaluate the effects of an accurate preoperative cardiac evaluation, together with optimized perioperative drug therapy, in reducing cardiovascular events in patients undergoing open aortic surgery for abdominal aneurysm., Methods: Between January 2000 and December 2008, we considered all consecutive patients undergoing elective abdominal aortic open surgery at the Vascular Surgery Unit of the University of Study-Spedali Civili (Italy). Since January 2003, we have used an intensive cardiac preoperative evaluation: patients with at least one cardiac risk factor received a preoperative cardiac evaluation; all non-invasive and invasive tests were performed preoperatively when indicated by the consultant cardiologist, that also optimized the pharmacological perioperative therapy. The outcome of the 418 patients undergoing surgery between 2003 and 2008 was compared with those of the 204 patients in the previous triennium 2000 to 2002, when only patients with positive history for cardiac disease received a standard preoperative cardiological clinical or instrumental evaluation., Results: Patients enrolled in the 2003 to 2008 interval were slightly older and with a higher prevalence of comorbidities compared with those observed in the previous triennium; furthermore, the number of noninvasive tests performed before surgery increased significantly. Nevertheless, the number of major cardiac perioperative complications decreased over time: particularly, in-hospital mortality rate was 0.9% in the latter period, compared with 3.4% in the years 2000 to 2002. Also, the long-term mortality was significantly reduced in patients operated on between 2003 and 2008 compared with those operated on in the previous triennium., Conclusion: These data suggest a significant benefit of an intensive cardiac preoperative evaluation in reducing the incidence of perioperative and postoperative cardiac morbidity and mortality., (Copyright © 2012 Annals of Vascular Surgery Inc.
