- Abstract
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) represent a group of rare lysosomal storage disorders, with a heterogeneous clinical presentation in terms of inheritance (autosomal and X-linked recessive), age of onset (infants, children, and adults), systemic and cardiac manifestations (mild to severe disease forms). Evidence-based recommendations on the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disease in MPS are scarce. GICEM (Gruppo Italiano Cardiologi Esperti Malattie Metaboliche) is a group of cardiologists, cardiac surgeons and pediatricians with a specific expertise in metabolic diseases including MPS. In this paper, we report our experience and recommendations on the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular aspects in MPS, with a tailored approach based on current evidence, and taking into account MPS phenotype (particularly, I, II, IVa, VI), age at presentation, and severity of systemic and cardiac manifestations.

- Abstract
Quantification of cardiac chambers size, geometry and function represent the most frequent indications for an echocardiographic study and are pivotal for patient evaluation and management. Three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) enables an easier, more accurate and reproducible interpretation of the complex geometry of cardiac chambers, overcoming the intrinsic limitations of conventional two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE). One major advantage of the third dimension is the improvement in the accuracy and reproducibility of chamber volume measurement by eliminating geometric assumptions and errors caused by foreshortened views. This feature render the technique feasible and reliable even in patients with asymmetric or distorted cardiac chambers, paradoxically the subjects in whom an accurate quantification is most needed. The purpose of this review is to analyze the role of 3DE in chamber quantification, emphasizing the incremental benefits of 3DE over conventional 2DE.

- Abstract
Tricuspid valve (TV) disease commonly occurs in combination with left-sided heart disease. Despite the growing enthusiasm for developing novel minimally invasive therapies for the mitral or aortic valve, the TV disease formerly received less attention and was frequently left untreated. Strong evidence has increased the awareness of the impact of severe TV regurgitation on patient survival, functional capacity, and surgical risk. Preoperative TV accurate description is challenging because, unlike left-sided valves, a complete visualization of tricuspid annulus and all three leaflets in one view is routinely impossible by two-dimensional transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiography. Three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) with its unrestricted imaging capabilities has sparked significant research interest for a better understanding and improved treatment of valvular heart disease. This review summarizes the current status of 3DE for the assessment of TV morphology and function, with its clinical applications and current limitations, as well as its potential implications for designing TV repair techniques.

Fabry disease is a rare tesaurismosis due to a deficit of the lysosomal enzyme activity of α-galactosidase, needed for the normal catabolism of globotriaosylceramides (GL3). Fabry cardiac involvement has several clinical manifestations: concentric left ventricular hypertrophy without left ventricular dilation and severe loss of left ventricular systolic function, mitral and aortic valvulopathy, disorders of the atrioventricular conduction or repolarization, and compromised diastolic function. Differentiating Fabry disease from similar conditions is often quite straightforward, e.g. cardiac amyloidosis is often associated with low electrocardiographic voltages, and systemic symptoms are usually associated with hemochromatosis and sarcoidosis. However, sometimes second-level (genetic analysis, α-galactosidase levels) or invasive investigations are required, which can include endomyocardial biopsy. Diagnostic imaging techniques have been described, but they lack specificity. Echocardiographic imaging with tissue Doppler analysis and/or strain rate analysis can allow diagnosis of Fabry disease even before left ventricular hypertrophy becomes apparent. This review illustrates the techniques for staging cardiac involvement and damage in Fabry disease and for the long-term follow-up of Fabry patients with or without cardiac involvement. Careful cardiac monitoring is especially important in elderly female carriers, who often develop renal disorders and/or left ventricular hypertrophy as the only manifestations of their late Fabry disease. In some clinical series, Fabry disease was diagnosed in 12% of women with adult-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Cardiological problems and outcomes of enzyme replacement therapy, associated with or without other cardiological treatments, are also discussed. © 2010 AIM Publishing Srl.

- Abstract
Integrating volumetric rendering with motion in real-time, three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography is the most suitable imaging technique for assessing heart valves. Today, the rapidly advancing 3D technology allows us to perform a virtual 'dissection' of the heart intra vitam and to discover unprecedented, realistic views of cardiac valves in just a few minutes. The mitral valve is the cardiac structure easiest to visualize by transthoracic or transoesophageal approach. Three-dimensional echocardiography is able to display the non-planar valve leaflets and annulus, the complex subvalvular apparatus and their spatial relationships with the surrounding structures. The complementary use of 3D colour flow adds data about valve integrity and allows the quantitation of valvular diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests that 3D echocardiography is emerging as the reference technique to assess mitral valve morphology and function and guide valvular procedures of mounting complexity. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the current clinical applications of 3D echocardiography for assessing mitral valves and to stress the incremental benefits of 3D echocardiography over conventional two-dimensional echocardiography.

- Abstract
Background: In TAVI procedures, accurate sizing of aortic annulus (AA) is paramount to avoid complications. Novel 3D transoesophageal echo (3DTOE) platform enables direct measurements on volume-rendered 3D datasets, speeding up AA sizing in the cath lab. Our aim was to validate AA measurements by novel 3DTOE against computerized tomography (CT). Methods: Minimum (Min) and maximum (Max) AA diameters, and their ratio (ellipticity index, EI) were obtained in 12 consecutive patients (9 men, aged 84 ± 4 y) who underwent pre-TAVI 2D and 3DTOE (Vivid E9 with 6VT-D probe, GE Ultrasound, N) and CT scan less than 1 week apart. Results: AA sizing required 58 ± 20 sec on 3D volume-rendered datasets and 95 ± 17 sec on multislice (MS) views (p < 0.003) (Figure). At CT, Max was 25.4 ± 2 mm, Min was 21.6 ± 2.1 mm, and EI was 1.2 ± 0.07. Accuracy of 3DTOE is reported in Table. Conventional 2D antero-posterior diameters underestimated Max in comparison to both 3D volume-rendered and MS (bias=-2.8 mm and -2.9 mm, respectively). Conclusions: AA sizing can be performed in a fast and reliable way using novel 3DTOE. Direct measurement on 3D volume-rendered seems as accurate as measuring on MS views, but significantly less time-consuming.

- Abstract
After menopause, most healthy women show an impairment of peripheral vasodilation and an increase of plasma cholesterol levels. Statins have been shown to improve endothelial function in hypercholesterolemic men and women. The present study tests whether atorvastatin (10 mg) influences endothelium-dependent vasodilation in postmenopausal normocholesterolemic women. Twenty-eight healthy, postmenopausal women (mean age 51 +/- 2 years) with serum total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol within the desirable range entered a double-blind, single-crossover study. Postmenopausal women were randomized to receive either atorvastatin (10 mg/day) or placebo for 10 days and then crossed to the complementary treatment. Endothelium-dependent and -independent responses were assessed by means of strain-gauge plethysmography before and after intra-arterial infusion of acethylcholine (ACh) and sodium nitroprusside, in comparison to physiologic saline. The nitric oxide pathway was evaluated by repeating the infusion of ACh during admininstration of L-arginine and (G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA). Serum lipoproteins were not significantly modified by the active treatment. The vasodilation induced by ACh was significantly higher in the atorvastatin-treated women compared with the placebo-treated group (24 +/- 3 vs 13 +/- 2 ml/100 ml tissue/min, p <0.01). In contrast, responses to the endothelium-independent vasodilator sodium nitroprusside were not significantly modified by atorvastatin. The ACh-stimulated vasodilation induced by atorvastatin was additionally potentiated by L-arginine (800 +/- 105% vs 370 +/- 60%, p <0.05) and blunted by L-NMMA. No correlation was found between changes in plasma cholesterol and improvement in forearm blood flow. Our data show that the beneficial effect of atorvastatin on endothelium-dependent vasodilation is independent from changes in the lipid profile. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Integrating volumetric rendering with motion in real-time, three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography is the most suitable imaging technique for assessing heart valves. Today, the rapidly advancing 3D technology allows us to perform a virtual 'dissection' of the heart intra vitam and to discover unprecedented, realistic views of cardiac valves in just a few minutes. The mitral valve is the cardiac structure easiest to visualize by transthoracic or transoesophageal approach. Three-dimensional echocardiography is able to display the non-planar valve leaflets and annulus, the complex subvalvular apparatus and their spatial relationships with the surrounding structures. The complementary use of 3D colour flow adds data about valve integrity and allows the quantitation of valvular diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests that 3D echocardiography is emerging as the reference technique to assess mitral valve morphology and function and guide valvular procedures of mounting complexity. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the current clinical applications of 3D echocardiography for assessing mitral valves and to stress the incremental benefits of 3D echocardiography over conventional two-dimensional echocardiography.

AIMS: Since there is insufficient data available about the inter-vendor consistency of three-dimensional (3D) speckle-tracking (STE) measurements, we undertook this study to (i) assess the inter-vendor consistency of 3D LV global strain values obtained using two different scanners; (ii) identify the sources of inter-vendor inconsistencies, if any; and (iii) compare their respective intrinsic variability. METHODS AND RESULTS: Sixty patients (38 ± 12 years, 64% males) with a wide range of LV end-diastolic volumes (from 74 to 205 ml) and ejection fractions (from 17 to 70%) underwent two 3D LV data set acquisitions using VividE9 and Artida ultrasound systems. Global longitudinal (Lε), radial (Rε), circumferential (Cε) and area (Aε) strain values were obtained offline using the corresponding 3D STE softwares. Despite being significantly different, Lε showed the closest values between the two platforms (bias = 1.5%, limits of agreement (LOA) from -2.9 to -5.9%, P < 0.05). Artida produced significantly higher values of both Cε and Aε than VividE9 (bias = 6.6, LOA: -14.1 to 0.9%, and bias = 6.0, LOA = -28.2-8.6%, respectively, P < 0.001). Conversely, Rε values obtained with Artida were significantly lower than those measured using VividE9 platform (bias = -24.2, LOA: 1.5-49.9, P < 0.001). All strain components showed good reproducibility (intra-class correlation coefficients: 0.82-0.98), except for Rε by Artida, which showed only a moderate reproducibility. CONCLUSION: Apart from Lε, the inter-vendor agreement of Rε, Cε and Aε measured with Artida and VividE9 was poor. Reference values should be specific for each system and baseline and follow-up data in longitudinal studies should be obtained using the same 3D STE platform.
