Abstract

Objective: To investigate the association between sarcopenia, as appraised with CT-derived muscle metrics, and cardiovascular status, as assessed via coronary CT angiography (CCTA) using the Coronary Artery Disease-Reporting and Data System (CAD-RADS) and with pericoronary adipose tissue (pCAT) metrics. Methods: A retrospective observational study conducted on patients who underwent CCTA. The cross-sectional area (CSA) and attenuation values of the paravertebral muscles at the T8 level and the pectoralis major muscles at the T6 level were measured. The patient height was employed for the normalization of the skeletal muscle CSA. The pCAT attenuation around the coronary arteries was assessed, and the CAD severity was graded using the CAD-RADS reporting system. Regression analyses were performed to assess the impact of demographics, clinical factors, and CT variables on the CAD-RADS and pCAT. Results: A total of 220 patients were included (132 males, median age 65 years). Regression analyses showed the associations of CAD with age and sex (p < 0.001). Familiarity with CAD was related to the left anterior descending artery pCAT (p = 0.002) and circumflex artery pCAT (p = 0.018), whereas age was related to the left anterior descending artery pCAT (p = 0.032). Weak positive correlations were found between the lower muscle density and lower pCAT attenuation (ρ = 0.144–0.240, p < 0.039). Conclusions: This study demonstrated weak associations between the sarcopenia indicators and the cardiovascular risk, as assessed by the CAD severity and pCAT inflammation. However, these correlations were not strong predictors of CAD severity, as age and traditional cardiovascular risk factors overshadowed the impact of sarcopenia in the cardiovascular risk assessment.

Abstract

Introduction: To evaluate myocardial strain and extracellular volume in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) patients as potential imaging biomarkers of subclinical cardiac pathology. Materials and methods: We retrospectively analyzed 9 DM1 patients without apparent cardiac disease who had undergone cardiac magnetic resonance at our center. Patients were age- and sex-matched with healthy controls. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare cardiac strain between the two groups. The t-test was used to compare the extracellular volume obtained in DM1 patients with that in healthy subject. Spearman's ρ was used for studying the associations among imaging parameters. Results: Global cardiac strain (median −19.1%; IQR −20.5%, −16.5%) in DM1 patients was lower (p = 0.011) than that in controls (median−21.7%; IQR−22.7%,-21.3%). Global extracellular volume in DM1 patients (median 32.3%; IQR 29.3%,36.8%) was significantly (p = 0.008) higher than that reported in literature in healthy subjects (median 25.6%; IQR 19.9%,31.9%). Global cardiac strain showed a strong, positive correlation with septal strain (ρ = 0.767, p = 0.016) and with both global (ρ = 0.733 p = 0.025) and septal extracellular volume (ρ = 0.767, p = 0.016). Discussion: The increase in cardiac extracellular volume and decrease in strain are signs of early cardiac pathology in DM1. Physicians dealing with DM1 may take into consideration cardiac magnetic resonance as a screening tool to identify early cardiac involvement in this condition.
