Introduction: Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a rare and progressive disease, frequently associated with a worsening of perceived quality of life as well as anxiety and depression symptomatology. Psychological counselling helps the patient understand the diagnosis and prevent the onset of psychopathologies. This study evaluates the effect of counselling sessions on anxiety and depression as well as the impact on self-reported quality of life in patients with PAH. Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of PAH were recruited at the Monaldi Hospital (Naples). An EQ-5D 3L que- stionnaire was administered to all patients at baseline (pre-session), three months (post-session) after the last session to patients who received psychological counselling (experimental group, EG) and after the first questionnaire to patients who did not (control group, CG). The EQ-5D index and EQ-VAS score were analysed in both groups. Results: A sample of 50 patients with a PAH diagnosis was evaluated; among them 6% had mild PAH, 66% moderate PAH, and 28% severe PAH. The majority (53%) did not receive psychological counselling. All patients showed no significant difference in EQ-5D index (P > 0.05), EQ-VAS score (P > 0.05), and the anxiety/depression dimension (P >.05) at baseline. However, between pre- and post-session evaluations, the analysis showed a significant change in the EQ-VAS score (P = 0.00) and the anxiety/depression dimension (P = 0.02) in the EG. In the CG, there was a similar change in the anxiety/depression dimension (P = 0.00) but not in the EQ-VAS score (P = 0.05) in CG. The z-test revealed significant intergroup relations, showing that the EG had a 37% increase in perceived quality of life and a 9% reduction in anxiety and depression, while a 12% reduction was observed for the CG’s perceived quality of life and a 44% increase in anxiety and depression. Discussion and Conclusions: This study showed that patients with PAH who received psychological support impro- ved their health-related quality of life by reducing anxiety and depression symptomatology. Our findings highlight the impact of psychological support in the treatment of patients with PAH.

Background: Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) is characterized by a combination of excessive erythrocytosis,severe hypoxemia, and pulmonary hypertension, all of which affect exercise capacity. METHODS: Thirteen patients with CMS and 15 healthy highlander and 15 newcomer lowlander control subjects were investigated at an altitude of 4,350 m (Cerro de Pasco, Peru). All of them underwent measurements of diffusing capacity of lung for nitric oxide and carbon monoxide at rest, echocardiography for estimation of mean pulmonary arterial pressure and cardiac output at rest and at exercise, and an incremental cycle ergometer cardiopulmonary exercise test. RESULTS: The patients with CMS, the healthy highlanders, and the newcomer lowlanders reached a similar maximal oxygen uptake at 32 1, 32 2, and 33 2 mL/min/kg, respectively, mean SE( P 5 .8), with ventilatory equivalents for C O 2 vs end-tidal P CO 2 , measured at the anaerobic threshold,of 0.9 0.1, 1.2 0.1, and 1.4 0.1 mm Hg, respectively ( P , .001); arterial oxygen content of 26 1, 21 2, and 16 1 mL/dL, respectively ( P , .001); diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide corrected for alveolar volume of 155% 4%, 150% 5%, and 120% 3% predicted, respectively( P , .001), with diffusing capacity for nitric oxide and carbon monoxide ratios of 4.7 0.1 at sea level decreased to 3.6 0.1, 3.7 0.1, and 3.9 0.1, respectively ( P , .05) and a maximal exercise mean pulmonary arterial pressure at 56 4, 42 3, and 31 2 mm Hg, respectively ( P , .001). CONCLUSIONS: The aerobic exercise capacity of patients with CMS is preserved in spite of severe pulmonary hypertension and relative hypoventilation, probably by a combination of increased oxygen carrying capacity of the blood and lung diffusion, the latter being predominantly due to an increased capillary blood volume.

RationaleDemographic characteristics of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients have changed over time, but the effects of cardiovascular risk factors on risk status and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) reduction with initial oral combination therapy are not known. Therefore, we tested the relevance of cardiovascular comorbidities in this setting.MethodsThe study enrolled 181 treatment-naive PAH patients with a 6-month (IQR 144–363 days) right heart catheterisation and risk assessment after initial oral combination therapy.ResultsGroup A included 96 (53.0%) patients without cardiac comorbidities; Group B included 54 (29.8%) patients with one cardiac comorbidity; Group C included 31 (17.1%) patients with two cardiac comorbidities or more. Group C patients were older with a balanced sex distribution. There was a significant difference in PVR reduction moving from the absence to one or at least two cardiac comorbidities, respectively: median −45.0%, −30.3%, −24.3%. A European Respiratory Society/European Society of Cardiology low-risk status was present at first follow-up in 50 (52.0%) patients in Group A, 19 (35.1%) in Group B and 9 (29.0%) in Group C; a REVEAL 2.0 low-risk status was present at first follow-up in 41 (42.0%) patients in Group A, 15 (27.7%) in Group B and 7 (22.6%) in Group C. Group A patients were 2.3 times more likely to achieve/maintain a low-risk status compared with Group B and C (OR 2.27, 95% CI 1.15–4.54, p=0.02). No significant difference was observed between patients with non-cardiac comorbidities and those without comorbidities.ConclusionInitial oral combination therapy seems associated with a less effective response for patients with cardiovascular comorbidities compared with the others, related to the magnitude of treatment-induced decrease in PVR.

Rationale: An initial oral combination of drugs is being recommended in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), but the effects of this approach on risk reduction and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) are not known.Objectives: To test the hypothesis that a low-risk status would be determined by the reduction of PVR in patients with PAH treated upfront with a combination of oral drugs.Methods: The study enrolled 181 treatment-naive patients with PAH (81% idiopathic) with a follow-up right heart catheterization at 6 months (interquartile range, 144-363 d) after the initial combination of endothelin receptor antagonist + phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor drugs and clinical evaluation and risk assessments by European guidelines and Registry to Evaluate Early and Long-Term PAH Disease Management scores.Measurements and Main Results: Initial combination therapy improved functional class and 6-minute-walk distance and decreased PVR by an average of 35% (median, 40%). One-third of the patients had a decrease in PVR

ObjectiveThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has led to significant restrictions on routine medical care. We conducted a multicentre nationwide survey of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) to determine the consequences of governance measures on PAH management and risk of poor outcome in patients with COVID-19.Materials and methodsThe present study, which included 25 Italian centres, considered demographic data, the number of in-person visits, 6-min walk and echocardiographic test results, brain natriuretic peptide/N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide test results, World Health Organization functional class assessment, presence of elective and non-elective hospitalisation, need for treatment escalation/initiation, newly diagnosed PAH, incidence of COVID-19 and mortality rates. Data were collected, double-checked and tracked by institutional records between March 1 and May 1, 2020, to coincide with the first peak of COVID-19 and compared with the same time period in 2019.ResultsAmong 1922 PAH patients, the incidences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and COVID-19 were 1.0% and 0.46%, respectively, with the latter comparable to that in the overall Italian population (0.34%) but associated with 100% mortality. Less systematic activities were converted into more effective remote interfacing between clinicians and PAH patients, resulting in lower rates of hospitalisation (1.2% versus 1.9%) and related death (0.3% versus 0.5%) compared with 2019 (pConclusionA cohesive partnership between healthcare providers and regional public health officials is needed to prioritise PAH patients for remote monitoring by dedicated tools.

Abstract: Background: Percutaneous valve repair with MitraClip System is an emerging alternative for high surgical risk patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR). QoL is a critical measure of effectiveness of this procedure. We sought to evaluate quality of life (QoL) and NYHA class following this novel procedure. Methods: The study included 39 consecutive patients who underwent mitral valve repair with the MitraClip System, both for functional (64%) and degenerative (36%) MR. All patients received the SF-12v2® questionnaire pre-procedure and at 6months follow-up to assess the physical and mental health. Results: Acute procedural success was obtained in 100%. Three patients experienced minor procedural complications. At follow-up 86% of patients had MR≤1+ and 14% experienced a moderate MR. Mean pre-procedural SF-12v2 scores of our patients showed a severe impairment of perceived QoL, both for physical and mental scores; after six months a striking improvement in physical (PCS 35.44 vs 44.67, p<0.0001) and mental (MCS 38.07 vs 46.94, p<0.0001) aspect of QoL was observed. Furthermore, physical and mental status upgrading was higher in patients with functional MR. NYHA functional class improved in all patients. Conclusion: Our results show an early marked improvement in functional status and physical and mental health in patients underwent percutaneous mitral valve repair with the MitraClip System.

- Abstract
Background: Percutaneous aortic valve replacement (PAVR) is an emerging alternative for high-risk patients with severe aortic stenosis. The aim of this study was to report acute and short-term outcomes of PAVR with the 18 Fr CoreValve Revalving System., Methods: From January 2007 to July 2008, 69 high-risk symptomatic patients with severe aortic stenosis were screened to assess their eligibility criteria for PAVR. All candidates were evaluated by a cardiac surgeon and a cardiologist. Thirty patients (13 men, 17 women, ages 82 +/- 5 years, range 73-88 years) met all the eligibility criteria and were enrolled in the study., Results: Twenty-nine patients (97%) underwent successful valve implantation by a retrograde approach, with improvement in valve area (0.61 +/- 0.18 cm(2) to 1.49 +/- 0.39 cm(2); p < 0.001) and transvalvular gradient (58.1 +/- 17.6 mmHg to 9.2 +/- 4.0; p < 0.001). Paravalvular leakages were 1+ (n = 12) and 2+ (n = 2). Procedural success was achieved in 93% of patients, with 1 case of pericardial tamponade occurred during the first 48 hours after implantation. At 30-day mortality was 7%. The mean NYHA Functional Class declined from 2.72 +/- 0.59 to 1.31 +/- 0.47 (p < 0.001). No other major adverse events occurred at a mean follow up of 4.9 +/- 4.0 months (range 1-13 months)., Conclusions: Our initial experience of PAVR in a cohort of older and high-risk surgical patients has been positive, with excellent acute and encouraging short-term results in terms of safety and efficacy.
