(要約) There is evidence supporting the notion that excess abdominal fat is predictive of insulin resistance and the presence of related metabolic abnormalities currently referred to as the metabolic syndrome (MetS). Despite the fact that abdominal obesity is a highly prevalent feature of MetS, the mechanisms by which abdominal obesity is causally related to MetS are not fully elucidated. Besides visceral fat accumulation, ectopic lipid deposition, especially in the liver and skeletal muscle, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of diabetes, insulin resistance and obesity-related disorders. In addition, ectopic fat deposition play a critical role in the heart components such as (1) circulatory and locally recruited fat, (2) intra-and extra-myocellular fat, (3) perivascular fat, and (4) pericardial fat. In this review, the contribution of ectopic lipid deposition to global cardiometabolic risk is discussed via possible mechanisms including adipocytokine, insulin resistance and lipotoxicity.

(要約) Persistent or paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is typically treated with pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) ablation under deep sedation with propofol. Intraoperative hemodynamic or respiratory instability often interferes with the surgical procedure. We retrospectively investigated risk factors in 80 patients who underwent their first PVI ablation for atrial fibrillation at our hospital. Background and echocardiography findings were collected from their electronic charts and the questionnaires they completed during hospitalization. Total intraoperative propofol dose and bolus injections (total number and volume) were defined as surrogate measures of patient instability. Single and stepwise multiple regression were performed using each measure as the dependent variable. When total propofol dose was employed as the dependent variable, significant associations were observed with drinking status (P < 0.05) and body mass index (BMI) (P < 0.05). When total number or volume of intravenous propofol boluses were each used as the dependent variable, significant associations were noted with age (P < 0.05) and BMI (P < 0.05). Separately, statistical analyses were conducted using total propofol dose or total number of bolus injections as the dependent variable and echocardiography parameters as independent variables. A significant association was detected between total dose and left atrial dimension (P < 0.05). These results suggested that younger age, higher BMI (obesity), and current drinking status adversely affect patient stability under deep sedation. To ensure safe ablation, physicians should pay attention to these risk factors when administering deep sedation for PVI.

(要約) ApoA-I amyloidosis is an extremely rare form of systemic amyloidosis that commonly involves the heart, kidneys, and liver. ApoA-I amyloidosis is caused by amyloidogenic variants of APOA1 that are inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Here, we report a 69-year-old man with sporadic cardiac amyloidosis who was born to consanguineous parents and carried a homozygous variant of p.Leu202Arg in APOA1.

(要約) Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant multi-organ disease. The clinical manifestations include not only skin lesions and malignant tumors but also lung complications, including pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, the association between gene mutations in NF1 and the occurrence of PAH has not yet been elucidated. We herein report a case of isolated PAH in a 67-year-old woman with NF1, presumably caused by a novel heterozygous mutation, c.4485_4486delinsAT (p.Lys1496Ter), in the NF1 gene.

Case Reports, Vol.8, 2024. (要約) Background A coronary-to-pulmonary artery fistula (CPAF) with a giant aneurysm is a rare clinical occurrence. The rupture of an aneurysm leads to a fatal outcome, thus prompting the incorporation of prophylactic measures, which have encompassed surgical resections or endovascular embolization procedures. The indications for these treatment strategies are controversial, and little has been elucidated regarding the salient characteristics underpinning the selection of a therapeutic strategy. We report a case of a giant aneurysm associated with CPAFs that was thrombosed before interventional treatment. Case summary A 43-year-old woman, who had previously undergone a right adrenalectomy for primary aldosteronism, was referred for an abnormal heart silhouette on a chest X-ray, which had not been seen three years earlier. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and coronary angiography (CAG) revealed a giant aneurysm on the anterior aspect of the heart associated with two CPAFs. Because of the risk of rupture of the aneurysm, surgical resection was recommended; however, the patient requested endovascular therapy. On the day of intervention, CAG showed spontaneous occlusion of the feeding vessel to the aneurysm, and the aneurysm showed minimal contrast agent, suggesting spontaneous thrombosis. Because of possible recanalization of the aneurysm, coil embolization was performed, without complications. The patient remained asymptomatic, and the aneurysm was completely embolized at the one-year follow-up. Discussion The case shows that minimally invasive endovascular treatment is feasible instead of surgical resection for giant aneurysms associated with CPAFs, depending on their morphological characteristics. This perspective may offer novel insights into treatment strategies for CPAF.

(要約) The role of the angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) in cardiac function, particularly its impact on pulmonary circulation, remains underexplored. Recent studies have described abnormal mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP)-cardiac output (CO) responses as having the potential to assess the disease state. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of ARNI on pulmonary circulation in heart failure. We measured echocardiographic parameters post 6-min walk (6 MW) and compared the changes with baseline and follow-up. Our hypothesis was that pulmonary pressure-flow relationship of the pulmonary circulation obtained by 6 MW stress echocardiography would be improved with treatment. We prospectively enrolled 39 heart failure patients and conducted the 6 MW test indoors. Post-6 MW echocardiography measured echocardiographic variables, and CO was derived from electric cardiometry. Individualized ARNI doses were optimized, with follow-up echocardiographic evaluations after 1 year. Left ventricular (LV) volume were significantly reduced (160.7 ± 49.6 ml vs 136.0 ± 54.3 ml, P < 0.001), and LV ejection fraction was significantly improved (37.6 ± 11.3% vs 44.9 ± 11.5%, P < 0.001). Among the 31 patients who underwent 6 MW stress echocardiographic study at baseline and 1 year later, 6 MW distance increased after treatment (380 m vs 430 m, P = 0.003). The ΔmPAP/ΔCO by 6 MW stress decreased with treatment (6.9 mmHg/L/min vs 2.8 mmHg/L/min, P = 0.002). The left atrial volume index was associated with the response group receiving ARNI treatment for pulmonary circulation. Initiation of ARNI was associated with improvement of left ventricular size and LVEF. Additionally, the 6 MW distance increased and the ΔmPAP/ΔCO was improved to within normal range with treatment.

(要約) Aortic valve calcification (AVC), which causes aortic stenosis (AS), is more common in elderly persons. Controlling for conventional risk variables did not, however, reduce the incidence of AS. Thus, residual risk factors of AS should be identified. We enrolled 513 patients who underwent coronary angiography with computed tomography because of suspicion of coronary artery disease (CAD) or ruling out of CAD before aortic valve replacement. Calcium volume was calculated with a commercially available application. Conventional and lipid-related risk factors including serum levels of Lp(a) were evaluated for all patients. Calcium volume and Lp(a) levels were significantly higher in patients who underwent aortic valve replacement than in those who did not. A single regression analysis showed that the calcium volume was positively associated with age and the Lp(a) levels and negatively associated with the estimated glomerular filtration rate. No statistical significance was observed for other risk factors, including oxidized low-density lipoprotein, omega-3 fatty acids levels. The multiple regression analysis revealed that age (P<0.001), female sex (P<0.05), Lp(a) (P<0.01), and hemoglobin A1c (P<0.01) were determinants of the calcium volume. The area under the curve in receiver operating characteristic analysis of Lp(a) for implementation of AVR was 0.65 at an Lp(a) cut-off level of 16 mg/dL. In conclusion, the serum Lp(a) level is a potent risk factor of AVC in patients with high risk of atherosclerosis. J. Med. Invest. 70 : 450-456, August, 2023.

(要約) Cancer therapeutics-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) affect the prognosis of patients with breast cancer. Echocardiographic surveillance of patients treated with anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) antibodies has been recommended, but few reports have provided evidence on patients with breast cancer only. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of echocardiographic surveillance for breast cancer patients. We identified 250 patients with breast cancer who were treated with anti-HER2 antibodies from July 2007 to September 2021. We divided 48 patients with echocardiographic surveillance every 3 months into the surveillance group and 202 patients without echocardiographic surveillance into the non-surveillance group. In the surveillance group, patients with a considerable reduction in global longitudinal strain of 15 % were considered for the initiation of cardioprotective drugs. The composite outcome of CTRCD and acute heart failure was the study endpoint. The mean age was 59 ± 12 years. During the follow-up period of 15 months (12-17 months), 12 patients reached the endpoint. The surveillance group had significantly lower incidence of the composite outcome (2.1 % vs. 5.5 %, adjusted odds ratio: 0.28, 95 % confidential intervals: 0.09-0.94; p = 0.039) and higher rates of prescriptions of cardioprotective drugs than the non-surveillance group. The incidence of cardiac complications was significantly lower in the surveillance group than the non-surveillance group, which supports the effectiveness of echocardiographic surveillance in patients with breast cancer.

(要約) Pharmacological blockade of mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs) is a potential therapeutic approach to reduce cardiovascular complications since MRs play a crucial role in cardiovascular regulation. Recent studies suggest that MR antagonists affect several extrarenal tissues, including vessel function. We investigated the effect of a novel nonsteroidal selective MR blocker, esaxerenone, on diabetes-induced vascular dysfunction. Diabetes was induced by a single dose of streptozotocin in 8-week-old male C57BL/6 mice. Esaxerenone (3 mg/kg/day) or a vehicle was administered by gavage to diabetic mice for 3 weeks. Metabolic parameters, plasma aldosterone levels, and parameters related to renal function were measured. Endothelium-dependent or -independent vascular responses of the aortic segments were analyzed with acetylcholine or sodium nitroprusside, respectively. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used for the in vitro study. Induction of diabetes elevated plasma aldosterone level (P<0.05) and impaired endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation (P<0.05). The administration of esaxerenone ameliorated the endothelial dysfunction (P<0.01) without the alteration of metabolic parameters, blood pressure, and renal function. Esaxerenone improved the eNOS phosphorylation in the aorta obtained from diabetic mice (P<0.05) compared with that in the vehicle-treated group. Furthermore, a major MR agonist, aldosterone, decreased eNOS phosphorylation and increased eNOS phosphorylation in HUVECs, which recovered with esaxerenone. Esaxerenone ameliorated the endothelium-dependent vascular relaxation caused by aldosterone in the aortic segments obtained from C57BL/6 mice (P<0.001). Esaxerenone attenuates the development of diabetes-induced endothelial dysfunction in mice. These results suggest that esaxerenone has potential vascular protective effects in individuals with diabetes.

(要約) In patients with sludge or severe spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) in the left atrial appendage (LAA), cases with isoproterenol loading transesophageal echocardiography (ISP-TEE) have been reported to identify the presence of thrombus in the LAA. This study aimed to assess the validity and hemodynamic changes of ISP-TEE in the LAA. We prospectively enrolled patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who underwent ISP-TEE. The degree of sludge/SEC was categorized as being either absent (grade 0), mild SEC (grade 1), moderate SEC (grade 2), severe SEC or sludge (grade 3). The hemodynamic evaluation was performed by measuring LAA flow velocity, LAA tissue Doppler imaging (LAA-TDI) velocity, and pulmonary vein systolic forward flow velocity (PVS). In total, 35 patients (mean age 71 ± 7 years; 71% male) underwent ISP-TEE. Among 35 patients, 30 patients had grade 3 or 2 SEC, 5 patients had grade 1 SEC. After ISP loading, 23 patients (66% of all patients) showed improved sludge/SEC and one patient was diagnosed with thrombus in the LAA. There were 25 patients with grade 1 SEC, or no SEC (classified as Group1), 10 patients had residual sludge or grade 2 to 3 SEC (classified as Group2) after ISP administration. LAA flow, LAA-TDI, and PVS velocities were significantly higher in group 1 than in group 2 after ISP administration. There was no complication during the examination and after 24 h and 3 months. ISP infusion may be a potential tool to recognize LAA thrombus under the sludge/SEC during TEE in AF.

(要約) Coronary intraplaque microluminal structures (MS) are associated with plaque vulnerability, and the inward progression of vascular inflammation from the adventitia towards the media and intima has also been demonstrated. Therefore, in the present study we investigated the relationships among MS, local inflammation in adjacent epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), and coronary plaque characteristics.Methods and Results: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) revealed MS in the left anterior descending coronary artery in 10 fresh cadaveric hearts. We sampled 30 lesions and subdivided them based on the presence of MS: MS (+) group (n=19) and MS (-) group (n=11). We measured inflammatory molecule levels in the adjacent EAT and percentage lipid volume assessed by integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound in each lesion. The expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor B and C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 were significantly higher in the MS (+) group than in the MS (-) group (0.9±0.7 vs. 0.2±0.2 arbitrary units (AU), P=0.04 and 1.5±0.5 vs. 0.6±0.7 AU, P=0.02, respectively). Percentage lipid volume was significantly higher in the MS (+) group than in the MS (-) group (38.7±16.5 vs. 23.7±10.9%, P=0.03). Intraplaque MS observed on OCT were associated with lipid-rich plaques and local inflammation in the adjacent EAT. Collectively, these results suggest that local inflammation in the EAT is associated with coronary plaque vulnerability via MS.

(要約) Some cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus, have been reported to reduce left ventricular (LV) longitudinal strain (LS) even in patients with preserved LV ejection fraction. We hypothesized that multiple CV risk factors might cause changes in myocardial strain. Our study aimed to assess the association between multiple CV risk factors and strain in patients without previous CV disease (CVD). We retrospectively evaluated 137 patients without CVD, who underwent echocardiography at our institution between May 2017 and February 2020. They were divided into four groups based on the number of risk factors (group 0: no risk factor, group 1: one risk factor, group 2: two risk factors, and groups 3: three or four risk factors). Risk factors were hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease. Absolute values of global LS (GLS) and relative apical LS ratio (RALSR) defined using the equation: average apical LS/(average basal LS + average mid LS) and was used as a marker of strain distribution. Out of 137 patients, group 0 had 35 patients, group 1 had 35 patients, group 2 had 32 patients, and group 3 had 35 patients. GLS was 22.4 ± 2.0%, 21.7 ± 2.1%, 21.3 ± 1.8%, 20.7 ± 2.2%, and RALSR was 0.64 ± 0.06, 0.66 ± 0.06, 0.68 ± 0.08, 0.69 ± 0.07 in groups 0-3, respectively. The one-way ANOVA detected significant differences between groups in GLS (p = 0.005) and RALSR (p = 0.037), respectively. Group 3 had a significantly lower GLS and higher RALSR than group 0 (p < 0.05). In patients without previous CVD, LS decreased especially from the basal segment as the number of cardiovascular risks increased. The segmental LS may be markers of occult LV dysfunction in patients with CV risk factors.

(要約) Esaxerenone is a novel, non-steroidal selective mineralocorticoid receptor (Csige et al.) blocker. MR activation plays a crucial role in the development of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. In this study, we investigated the effects of esaxerenone on various metabolic parameters in mice. Esaxerenone (3 mg/kg/day) was orally administered to high-fat diet (HFD)-fed male C57BL/6 mice. Mice fed a normal diet (ND) served as controls. Glucose and insulin tolerance, plasma lipid levels, and transaminase levels were assessed as metabolic parameters. Macrophage accumulation in the adipose tissue was evaluated using histological analysis. 3T3-L1 adipocytes, HepG2 cells, and C2C12 myotubes were used for in vitro experiments. Gene expression and insulin signaling were examined using quantitative RT-PCR and western blotting, respectively. HFD successfully induced insulin resistance compared with that in ND. Esaxerenone ameliorated insulin resistance (P < 0.05) without altering other metabolic parameters, such as the lipid profile. Esaxerenone administration tended to decrease plasma transaminase levels compared with those in the non-treated group. In the adipose tissue, esaxerenone decreased macrophage accumulation (P < 0.05) and increased the expression levels of adiponectin and PPARγ. Aldosterone significantly decreased the expression levels of PPARγ and adiponectin in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Furthermore, aldosterone attenuated insulin-induced Akt phosphorylation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, HepG2 cells, and C2C12 myotubes in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.01). These effects were ameliorated by pretreatment with esaxerenone. Esaxerenone ameliorated insulin resistance in HFD-fed mice. Reduction of inflammation and improvement in insulin signaling may underlie the beneficial effects of esaxerenone.

(要約) Abnormal left ventricular diastolic response to preload stress can be an early marker of heart failure (HF). The aim of this study was to assess clinical course in patients with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) who underwent preload stress echocardiography. In the subgroup analysis, we assessed the prognosis of patients with unstable signs during preload stress classified by treatment strategies. We prospectively conducted preload stress echocardiographic studies between January 2006 and December 2013 in 211 patients with HFpEF. Fifty-eight patients had abnormal diastolic reserve during preload stress (unstable impaired relaxation: unstable IR). Of 58 patients with unstable IR, 19 patients were assigned to additional therapy by increased or additional therapy and 39 patients were assigned to standard therapy. Composite outcomes were prespecified as the primary endpoint of death and hospitalization for deteriorating HF. During a median period of 6.9 years, 19 patients (33%) reached the composite outcome. Unstable group with standard therapy had significantly shorter event-free survival than stable group. Patients with uptitration of therapy had longer event-free survival than those with standard therapy group after adjustment of laboratory data (hazard ratio, 0.20, 95% confidence interval, 0.05-0.90; P = 0.036); the 10 year event-free survival in patients with and without uptitration of therapy was 93% and 51%, respectively (P = 0.023). Patients with unstable sign had significantly shorter event-free survival than patients with stable sign. After additional therapy, the prognosis of patients with unstable signs improved. This technique may impact decision-making for improving their prognosis.

(要約) The choice of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) is at the physician's discretion; however, it is useful to know the differences in the clinical data of DOACs to help physicians choose. We aimed to compare the mortality associated with the use of rivaroxaban, edoxaban, and apixaban in clinical practice. We identified 38,245 patients with first hospitalization for VTE from the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in the Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Datasets (JROAD-DPC). We classified patients into three groups by DOAC (rivaroxaban and edoxaban group, rivaroxaban and apixaban group, and edoxaban and apixaban group) and compared the in-hospital mortality and bleeding risk by propensity score (PS) matching in each group. After PS matching, patients with rivaroxaban use had significantly lower total in-hospital mortality (1.2% vs. 2.1%; odds ratio [OR] 0.55, p = 0.012) and in-hospital mortality within 21 days (0.4% vs. 1.0%; OR 0.41, p = 0.020) and 28 days (0.7% vs. 1.3%; OR 0.53, p = 0.042) than patients with apixaban use. In the subanalysis, significant differences were only observed in patients younger than 80 years of age, patients with pulmonary embolism, and patients without heart failure. There was no significant difference in in-hospital mortality in the other groups and in the rate of bleeding events among the three groups. On PS-matched analysis, there was a difference in in-hospital mortality, especially in the rivaroxaban and apixaban group. Identifying the clinical characteristics of patients associated with each DOAC, as well as prognosis, will be useful in determining treatment strategies for VTE.

(要約) Previous studies examined the right atrial (RA) input site of the antegrade fast pathway (AFp) (AFpI). However, the left atrial (LA) input to the atrioventricular (AV) node has not been extensively evaluated. In this study, we created three-dimensional (3-D) bi-atrial stimulus-ventricle (St-V) maps and analyzed the input site and characteristics of the AFp in both the RA and LA. Forty-four patients diagnosed with atrial fibrillation or WPW syndrome were included in this study. Three-dimensional bi-atrial St-V mapping was performed using an electroanatomical mapping system. Sites exhibiting the minimal St-V interval (MinSt-V) were defined as AFpIs and were classified into seven segments, four in the RA (F, S, M, and I) and three in the LA (M1, M2, and M3). By combining the MinSt-V in the RA and LA, the AFpIs were classified into three types: RA, LA, and bi-atrial (BA) types. The clinical and electrophysiological characteristics were compared. AFpIs were most frequently observed at site S in the RA (34%) and M2 in the LA (50%), and the BA type was the most common (57%). AFpIs in the LA were recognized in 75% of the patients. There were no clinical or electrophysiological indicators for predicting AFpI sites. Three-dimensional bi-atrial St-V maps could classify AFpIs in both the RA and LA. AFpIs in the LA were frequently recognized. There were no significant clinical or electrophysiological indicators for predicting AFpI sites, and 3-D bi-atrial St-V mapping was the only method to reveal the precise AFp input site.

(要約) The COVID-19 pandemic has caused an unprecedented disruption in medical education. Students and lecturers had to adapt to online education. The current study aimed to investigate the level of satisfaction and future preference for online lectures among clinical clerkship students and elucidated the factors that affect these outcomes. We selected a sample of 114 medical students undergoing clinical clerkship during the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted onsite lectures before the pandemic and online lectures after the outbreak. A survey was conducted, and the sample included students and 17 lecturers. The average scores of total satisfaction and future preference related to online lectures were computed. Students' scores on total satisfaction with online lectures and their future preference were higher than those for onsite lectures. Scores on the ease of debating dimension were low and those on accessibility of lectures in online lectures were higher than those in onsite lectures. There was no difference between the two groups in the scores on the comprehensibility and ease of asking questions dimensions. Results of the multiple regression analysis revealed that accessibility determined total satisfaction, and future preference was determined by comprehensibility as well as accessibility. Contrary to students' future preferences, lecturers favored onsite lectures to online ones. Online lectures are an acceptable mode of teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic for students undergoing clinical clerkship. Online lectures are expected to become more pervasive to avoid the spread of COVID-19.

(要約) The effects of catheter ablation on exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) have been reported. We assessed cardiac function in more detail using the leg positive pressure (LPP) technique and found that contractile reserve is particularly important in relation to exercise tolerance and prognosis. In this study, we used the LPP technique to examine changes in contractile reserve immediately after ablation and 6 months later. We prospectively enrolled patients who underwent catheter ablation for AF at 2 institutes. We performed LPP stress echocardiography 2 to 3 days after (FU-1) and 6 months after (FU-2) ablation to examine changes in cardiac function indexes. The primary end point was improvement in contractile reserve. Ultimately, 109 patients (mean age 67.4 ± 9.6 years; 70% men) underwent 2 sessions of LPP stress echocardiography. The median CHADS-VAS score was 2 (interquartile range 13). From FU-1 to FU-2, the change in the stroke volume index after the LPP maneuver increased in patients with paroxysmal and persistent AF with low CHADS-VAS scores (both p <0.05). Regardless of AF subtype, contractile reserve at FU-2 improved in patients with low CHADS-VAS scores compared with that at FU-1. In contrast, patients with high CHADS-VAS scores had no change. In conclusion, patients with AF with a low CHADS-VAS score had improved contractile reserve after ablation, whereas patients with high scores did not show any improvement. Aggressive interventions in patients with high scores may lead to better management after catheter ablation.

(要約) The overlap time of transmitral flow can be a novel marker of subclinical left ventricular (LV) dysfunction for predicting adverse events in heart failure (HF). We aimed to 1) investigate the role of overlap time of E-A wave in association with clinical parameters, and 2) evaluate whether the overlap time could add prognostic information with respect to other conventional clinical prognosticators in HF. We prospectively evaluated 153 patients hospitalized with HF (mean age 68±15 years; 63% male). The primary endpoint was readmission following HF and cardiac death. During a median period of 25 months, 43 patients were either readmitted or died. Overlap time appeared to be associated with worse outcomes. After adjustment for readmission score and ratio of diastolic filling period and cardiac cycle length in a Cox proportional-hazards model, overlap time was associated with event free survival, independent of elevated left atrial pressure (LAP) based on guidelines. When overlap time was added to the model based on clinical variables and elevated LAP, the C-statistic significantly improves from 0.70 (95% CI: 0.63-0.77) to 0.77 (95% CI: 0.69-0.83, compared P=0.035). This preliminary study suggested that prolonged overlap time may have potential for predicting readmission and cardiac mortality risk assessment in HF.

(要約) In patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS), paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) is often diagnosed, however, the risk of paroxysmal AF in ESUS has not been well described. Several studies have suggested a linkage between left atrial (LA) functional parameters and risk of AF in stroke patients. The aim of this study was to assess the role of LA functional parameters as predictors of latent paroxysmal AF in ESUS on admission. Between January 2015 and December 2019, consecutive stroke patients with suspected ESUS at admission were prospectively included in this study. They were under hospital electrocardiographic monitoring for detection of new-onset AF. Various echocardiographic parameters including left atrial strain were assessed for association with new-onset AF. We gathered 1082 consecutive patients with ischemic stroke. After exclusions, 121 patients with suspected ESUS at admission formed the study cohort. New-onset AF was detected in 46 (38%) patients during hospital electrocardiographic monitoring (median follow-up: 18 days). LA pump and reservoir strains were significantly and independently associated with new-onset AF. Receiver operating characteristic analysis for the association with new-onset AF showed that the areas under the curve (AUCs) of clinical parameters plus one of each strain (LA pump strain: AUC: 0.86±0.04 and LA reservoir strain: AUC: 0.76±0.05) models were significantly better than plus LA volume index (AUC: 0.68±0.04, compared p-values <0.05). LA strain was significantly associated with new development of AF. Patients with impaired LA function at admission should be carefully monitored to find AF.

(要約) Echocardiography requires a high degree of skill on the part of the examiner, and the skill may be more improved in larger volume centers. This study investigated trends and outcomes associated with the use and volume of echocardiographic exams from a real-world registry database of heart failure (HF) hospitalizations. This study was based on the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in the Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Datasets (JROAD-DPC). A first analysis was performed to assess the trend of echocardiographic examinations between 2012 and 2016. A secondary analysis was performed to assess whether echocardiographic use was associated with in-hospital mortality in 2015. During this period, the use of echocardiography grew at an average annual rate of 6%. Patients with echocardiography had declining rates of hospital mortality, and these trends were associated with high hospitalization costs. In the 2015 sample, a total of 52,832 echocardiograms were examined, corresponding to 65.6% of all HF hospital admissions for that year. We found that the use and volume of echocardiography exams were associated with significantly lower odds of all-cause hospital mortality in heart failure (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 0.48 for use of echocardiography and 0.78 for the third tertile; both < 0.001). The use of echocardiography was associated with decreased odds of hospital mortality in HF. The volumes of echocardiographic examinations were also associated with hospital mortality.

(要約) Heart failure with recovered ejection fraction (HFrecEF) has been reported in several previous studies to have a better prognosis than heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, the factors associated with HFrecEF have not been identified. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that left atrial (LA) strain could help identify patients with recovered ejection fraction (EF) among those with heart failure (HF) with low EF on admission. One hundred consecutive patients hospitalized for the first time for new-onset HF were enrolled. Patients were clinically diagnosed with HFrEF on admission (left ventricular EF < 40%) and received optimal treatment for HF. Twenty-eight patients improved to HFrecEF during 6 months of follow-up. Regarding clinical background, there were significantly more women and a lower rate of atrial fibrillation in the HFrecEF group than in the HFrEF group. In a multivariate logistic regression analysis, LA strain was an independent predictor of HFrecEF, even after adjustment for gender and left ventricular EF (odds ratio: 4.06; 95% CI: 2.04-8.07; P < .001). A cutoff value of 10.8% for LA strain showed high sensitivity (96%) and specificity (82%) in identifying HFrecEF in patients with HF presenting with low EF on admission. During a follow-up period of 24 ± 13 months, 31 patients (31%) had cardiovascular death or readmission for HF. Patients with reduced LA strain (<10.8%) had significantly shorter event-free survival than those with preserved LA strain (P = .02). LA strain is a useful indicator for predicting HFrecEF and should be considered as a routine measurement in patients with HFrEF on admission.

(要約) Activated factor X (FXa), which contributes to chronic inflammation via protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2), might play an important role in atrial fibrillation (AF) arrhythmogenesis. This study aimed to assess whether PAR2 signaling contributes to AF arrhythmogenesis and whether rivaroxaban ameliorates atrial inflammation and prevents AF.Methods and Results:In Study 1, PAR2 deficient (PAR2-/-) and wild-type mice were infused with angiotensin II (Ang II) or a vehicle via an osmotic minipump for 2 weeks. In Study 2, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) were treated with rivaroxaban, warfarin, or vehicle for 2 weeks after 8 h of right atrial rapid pacing. The AF inducibility and atrial remodeling in both studies were examined. Ang II-treated PAR2-/- mice had a lower incidence of AF and less mRNA expression of collagen1 and collagen3 in the atrium compared to wild-type mice treated with Ang II. Rivaroxaban significantly reduced AF inducibility compared with warfarin or vehicle. In SHRs treated with a vehicle, rapid atrial pacing promoted gene expression of inflammatory and fibrosis-related biomarkers in the atrium. Rivaroxaban, but not warfarin, significantly reduced expression levels of these genes. The FXa-PAR2 signaling pathway might contribute to AF arrhythmogenesis associated with atrial inflammation. A direct FXa inhibitor, rivaroxaban, could prevent atrial inflammation and reduce AF inducibility, probably by inhibiting the pro-inflammatory activation.

(要約) Lifestyle-related diseases promote atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease; however, the molecular mechanism remains largely unknown. Endogenous DNA fragments released under over-nutrient condition provoke sterile inflammation through the recognition by DNA sensors. Here, we investigated the role of stimulator of interferon genes (STING), a cytosolic DNA sensor, in atherogenesis. Apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apoe-/-) mice fed a western-type diet (WTD), a hypercholesterolaemic mouse model, showed higher STING expression and markers for DNA damage such as γH2AX, p53, and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) accumulation in macrophages in the aorta compared with wild-type (WT) mice. The level of cGAMP, a STING agonist, in the aorta was higher in Apoe-/- mice. Genetic deletion of Sting in Apoe-/- mice reduced atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic arch, lipid, and macrophage accumulation in plaques, and inflammatory molecule expression in the aorta compared with the control. Pharmacological blockade of STING using a specific inhibitor, C-176, ameliorated atherogenesis in Apoe-/- mice. In contrast, bone marrow-specific STING expression in Apoe-/- mice stimulated atherogenesis. Expression or deletion of STING did not affect metabolic parameters and blood pressure. In vitro studies revealed that STING activation by cGAMP or mitochondrial DNA accelerated inflammatory molecule expression (e.g. TNF-α or IFN-β) in mouse and human macrophages. Activation of nuclear factor-κB and TANK binding kinase 1 was involved in STING-associated vascular inflammation and macrophage activation. Furthermore, human atherosclerotic lesions in the carotid arteries expressed STING and cGAMP. Stimulator of interferon genes stimulates pro-inflammatory activation of macrophages, leading to the development of atherosclerosis. Stimulator of interferon genes signalling may serve as a potential therapeutic target for atherosclerosis.

(要約) Background The prognosis of patients with cancer-venous thromboembolism (VTE) is not well known because of a lack of registry data. Moreover, there is also no knowledge on how specific types are related to prognosis. We sought to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with cancer-associated VTE, compared with a matched cohort without cancer using real-world registry data of VTE. Methods and Results This study was based on the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in the JROAD-DPC (Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Diseases and the Diagnosis Procedure Combination). Of 5 106 151 total patients included in JROAD-DPC, we identified 49 580 patients who were first hospitalized with VTE from April 2012 to March 2017. Propensity score was estimated with a logistic regression model, with cancer as the dependent variable and 18 clinically relevant covariates. After propensity matching, there were 25 148 patients with VTE with or without cancer. On propensity score-matched analysis with 25 148 patients with VTE, patients with cancer had higher total in-hospital mortality within 7 days (1.3% versus 1.1%, odds ratio [OR], 1.66; 95% CI, 1.31-2.11; <0.0001), 14 days (2.5% versus 1.5%, OR, 2.07; 95% CI, 1.72-2.49; <0.0001), and 30 days (4.8% versus 2.0%, OR, 2.85; 95% CI, 2.45-3.31; <0.0001). On analysis for each type of cancer, in-hospital mortality in 11 types of cancer was significantly high, especially pancreas (OR, 12.96; 95% CI, 6.41-26.20), biliary tract (OR, 8.67; 95% CI, 3.00-25.03), and liver (OR, 7.31; 95% CI, 3.05-17.50). Conclusions Patients with cancer had a higher in-hospital acute mortality for VTE than those without cancer, especially in pancreatic, biliary tract, and liver cancers.

(要約) A broad range of chronic conditions, including heart failure (HF), have been associated with vitamin D deficiency. Existing clinical trials involving vitamin D supplementation in chronic HF patients have been inconclusive. We sought to evaluate the outcomes of patients with vitamin D supplementation, compared with a matched cohort using real-world big data of HF hospitalization. This study was based on the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database in the Japanese Registry of All Cardiac and Vascular Datasets (JROAD-DPC). After exclusion criteria, we identified 93,692 patients who were first hospitalized with HF between April 2012 and March 2017 (mean age was 79 ± 12 years, and 52.2% were male). Propensity score (PS) was estimated with logistic regression model, with vitamin D supplementation as the dependent variable and clinically relevant covariates. On PS-matched analysis with 10,974 patients, patients with vitamin D supplementation had lower total in-hospital mortality (6.5 vs. 9.4%, odds ratio: 0.67, < 0.001) and in-hospital mortality within 7 days and 30 days (0.9 vs. 2.5%, OR, 0.34, and 3.8 vs. 6.5%, OR: 0.56, both < 0.001). In the sub-group analysis, mortalities in patients with age < 75, diabetes, dyslipidemia, atrial arrhythmia, cancer, renin-angiotensin system blocker, and β-blocker were not affected by vitamin D supplementation. Patients with vitamin D supplementation had a lower in-hospital mortality for HF than patients without vitamin D supplementation in the propensity matched cohort. The identification of specific clinical characteristics in patients benefitting from vitamin D may be useful for determining targets of future randomized control trials.

(要約) The patient with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (HH) shows low serum levels of androgen, which is a group of sex hormones including testosterone, caused by the decreased gonadotropin release in the hypothalamus. Recent reports showed androgens exert protective effects against insulin resistance or atherosclerotic diseases, such as diabetes mellitus or coronary artery disease. However, whether the juvenile hypogonadism affects the diabetes or cardiovascular disease is unclear. We report a case of a middle-aged man with congenital HH who had severe coronary artery disease complicated with metabolic disorders. J. Med. Invest. 68 : 189-191, February, 2021.

(要約) The ultra-short dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by P2Y inhibitor monotherapy might be promising after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, CYP2C19 loss-of-function (LOF) alleles have been reported to diminish the effect of clopidogrel, and clopidogrel monotherapy has a concern about the increased ischemic risk for patients with such alleles. STOPDAPT-2 is the multicenter prospective open-label, but adjudicator-blinded randomized control study comparing 1-month DAPT followed by clopidogrel monotherapy with the standard 12-month DAPT after PCI with cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents. Among the participants of STOPDAPT-2, selected patients participated in a substudy of the CYP2C19 gene test. Patients with two CYP2C192 or 3 alleles were defined as the poor metabolizer (PM), one allele as the intermediate metabolizer (IM), and no allele as the extensive metabolizer (EM). The primary endpoint was the composite of cardiovascular and bleeding events, as defined in STOPDAPT-2. Among 750 (24.9%) patients with known CYP2C19 genotypes, 129 (17.2%) were PM, 367 (49.0%) were IM, and 254 (33.9%) were EM. The hazard ratios of 1-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT for the primary endpoint in PM, IM, and EM strata were 0.66 (95% CI 0.11-3.94), 1.94 (95% CI 0.60-6.31), and 0.21 (95% CI 0.02-1.78), respectively (P interaction = 0.17), and those for cardiovascular composite endpoint were 1.00 (95% CI 0.14-7.10), 6.10 (95% CI 0.75-49.55), and 0.26 (95% CI 0.03-2.34), respectively (P interaction = 0.12). In conclusion, for the selected patients in STOPDAPT-2 trial, CYP2C19 LOF alleles had no significant, consistent interaction with the effect of 1-month DAPT relative to 12-month DAPT for clinical outcomes, although the study was overtly underpowered.

(要約) The risks of bleeding and cardiovascular events in high bleeding risk (HBR) Japanese patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) while receiving single-antiplatelet therapy (SAPT) remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate the frequency of bleeding and cardiovascular events associated with prasugrel monotherapy after short-term dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in Japanese HBR patients after PCI.Methods and Results:The PENDULUM mono study was a multicenter, non-interventional, prospective registry (n=1,173). The primary endpoint was the cumulative incidence of clinically relevant bleeding (CRB; Bleeding Academic Research Consortium types 2, 3, and 5) from 1 to 12 months after PCI. Secondary endpoints included major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). The proportion of patients who received prasugrel monotherapy at 12 months after PCI was 79.7%, and no cases of stent thrombosis were observed among these patients. The cumulative incidence of CRB was 3.2% from 1 to 12 months after PCI; that of MACCE was 3.8%. Severe anemia, chronic kidney disease, oral anticoagulant use at discharge, and heart failure were significantly associated with CRB. Among HBR patients undergoing PCI who were not suitable for concomitant aspirin and were scheduled for prasugrel monotherapy, most patients were on prasugrel monotherapy after DAPT. Cumulative incidences of CRB and MACCE after periprocedural period were 3.2% and 3.8%, respectively, and no cases of stent thrombosis were reported. SAPT might be a suitable alternative to DAPT.

(要約) Recent studies have shown that patients with combined pre- and postcapillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH) had worse outcomes than those with isolated postcapillary pulmonary hypertension (IpcPH). However, the prognostic factors including right ventricular (RV) function have not been well documented. The aim of this study was to assess the differentiation of PH phenotypes, using echocardiography, and the association between RV longitudinal strain and cardiac events. We prospectively recruited consecutive patients who had undergone right heart catheterization. The primary endpoint was cardiovascular death or readmission due to heart failure. We included 137 patients with Group 2 PH. A RV longitudinal strain of 17% was sensitive (85%) and specific (70%) to determine the CpcPH. During a median period of 31 months, 43 patients experienced the primary endpoint during follow-up. In a multivariate analysis, RV longitudinal strain was associated with the primary endpoint in both CpcPH and IpcPH (HR: 0.84, P = 0.003; HR: 0.86, P = 0.001). Lower RV longitudinal strain was independently associated with worse outcomes in CpcPH and IpcPH. RV longitudinal strain may play a prognostic role in PH phenotypes.

(要約) Advanced age, obesity, and muscle weakness are independent factors in the onset of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Recently, an association between sarcopenia and DVT has been reported. We hypothesized that sarcopenia related factors, observed by ultrasonography, are associated with the regression effect on the thrombus following anticoagulation therapy. The present study focused on gastrocnemius muscle (GCM) thickness and the GCM's internal echogenic brightness. We examined the association with DVT regression following direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) treatment.The prospective cohort study period was between October 2017 and August 2018. We enrolled 46 patients diagnosed with DVT by ultrasonography, who were aged >60 years old and treated with DOACs. Sarcopenia was evaluated using the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia flowchart. The average DOACs treatment period was 94 days, and 29 patients exhibited thrombus regression. On univariate logistic regression analysis, sarcopenia, average GCM diameter index, and gastrocnemius integrated backscatter index were significantly associated with thrombus regression. In a multivariate model, only the average GCM diameter index correlated with thrombus regression.The average GCM diameter index is associated with DVT regression treated with DOACs. Considering the GCM diameter during DVT treatment can be a marker to make a decision for the treatment of DVT.

(要約) Risk assessment of developing cardiac involvement in systemic sarcoidosis can be challenging because of limited data. Recently, attention has been given to left ventricular and right ventricular (LV and RV) involvement in cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) and its prevalence, relevance, and prognostic value. The aim of this study was to assess the role of biventricular strain to predict prognosis in confirmed sarcoidosis patients. LV and RV longitudinal strains (LSs) were evaluated by 2D speckle tracking in 139 consecutive confirmed sarcoidosis patients without other pre-existing structural heart diseases, and 52 age- and gender-matched control subjects. The primary endpoint was CS-related events (cardiac death or development of cardiac involvement). Sarcoidosis without cardiac involvement had significantly lower LV and RV free wall LS compared with control subjects. Basal LS had a higher area under the curve for differentiation of sarcoidosis in patients without cardiac involvement compared to control (cut-off value: -18% with 89% sensitivity and 69% specificity). During a median period of 50 months, the occurrence of CS-related events was observed in 20 patients. In a multivariate analysis, basal LV LS and RV free wall LS were associated with the events [hazard ratio (HR) 0.72, P < 0.001 and HR: 0.83, P = 0.006, respectively]. Patients with impaired biventricular function had significantly shorter event-free survival than those with preserved biventricular function (P < 0.001). Deterioration of biventricular strain was associated with CS-related events. This information might be useful for clinical evaluation and follow-up in sarcoidosis.

(要約) Whether preoperative echocardiography improves postoperative outcomes is not well established, so we examined the value of echocardiographic assessment on the onset of postoperative heart failure (HF), and determining which patients benefitted most from undergoing echocardiography prior to major elective non-cardiac surgery.Methods and Results:We identified all patients aged 50 years and older who had major elective non-cardiac surgery, and excluded patients with previously identified severe cardiovascular disease. The primary endpoint was the onset of HF during hospitalization. A total of 806 patients were included in the analysis. During hospitalization, 49 patients (6%) reached the primary endpoint. Within the matched cohort, preoperative echocardiography was associated with a statistically significant decrease in postoperative HF (hazard ratio: 0.46, P=0.01). In subgroup analyses, age, sex, body surface area, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, prior HF, surgical type, chronic kidney disease, pulmonary disease, and malignancy influenced the association of echocardiography with postoperative HF. The use of echocardiography in elderly patients with certain risk factors was associated with improved postoperative outcomes. The basis for this finding remains to be determined; particularly whether echocardiography is simply a marker of a population with better outcomes or whether it leads to better management that improves outcomes.

(要約) Evaluation of diastolic dysfunction is crucial in determining elevated left atrial pressure. However, a validation of the long-term prognostic value of the newly proposed algorithm updated in 2016 has not been performed. The aim of the present study was to investigate the relative value of the updated 2016 diastolic dysfunction grading system for the incidence of readmission in patients with heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Two hundred thirty-two patients hospitalized with HF were retrospectively evaluated. Subjects were divided into two subgroups: those with HFrEF (n = 127) and those with HFpEF (n = 105). Readmission risk scores were calculated using the Yale Center for Outcomes Research and Evaluation HF, LACE index, and HOSPITAL scores. The primary end point was readmission following HF and cardiac death. Over a period of 24 months, 86 patients were either readmitted or died. Multivariate Cox analysis was performed on both the HFrEF and HFpEF groups. In the HFrEF group, both the 2009 and 2016 algorithms had superior incremental value for the association of the primary end point to several readmission risk scores. In the HFpEF group, only the 2016 algorithm led to significant improvement in association with the primary end point. The 2016 algorithm had incremental value over several readmission risk scores alone. The recommendations of the 2016 algorithm can be useful for readmission and cardiac mortality risk assessment in patients with HFrEF and HFpEF. The use of echocardiography to estimate elevated left atrial pressure appears to identify a higher risk group and may allow a more tailored approach to therapy.

(要約) It is speculated that statin therapy modulates the synthesis of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). However, the data available on the effects of statin therapy on the serum levels of PUFA and the subsequent impact on in-stent restenosis (ISR) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are limited. A total of 120 ACS patients who received emergent coronary stent implantation, follow-up coronary angiography to evaluate ISR, and new statin therapy were enrolled. We measured the serum levels of the PUFA and lipids at the onset of ACS and at the follow-up coronary angiography. The follow-up coronary angiography revealed 38 ISR cases. New statin therapy significantly reduced the serum levels of DHA and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), while it did not affect EPA level. Single regression analysis revealed that a decreased serum level of LDL-C was associated with decreased DHA level. The multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that the decreased DHA level after statin therapy and low serum level of EPA on admission were determinants of prevalence of ISR. Statin therapy decreased the serum level of DHA with a parallel reduction in LDL-C level in patients with ACS. Decreased DHA level after statin therapy and low EPA level on admission are risk factors for ISR, indicating that in patients with ACS, decreased serum levels of DHA may be a residual target for the prevention of ISR.

(要約) A 68-year-old woman with VT storm and frequent appropriate ICD therapy was referred for catheter ablation. Her past history was notable for aortic valve replacement by mechanical valve due to infectious endocarditis 17 years prior to presentation and left ventricular apical old myocardial infarction with unknown onset. At 67 years old, She admitted to the prior hospital due to ventricular tachycardia with LBBB and superior axis at heart rate of 210 per minutes. Administration of amiodarone and magnesium sulfate was ineffective and cardioversion of 200J was successfully terminated the tachycardia. Intra-cardiac defibrillator was implanted and the administration of amiodarone and mexiletine was started. 5 months after, she admitted to the hospital due to the frequent appropriate shock against the same ventricular tachycardia. Administration of lidocaine, sotalol, pilsicainide, and magnesium sulfate could not control the tachycardia and she was referred to our hospital for catheter ablation. During the first session, ventricular tachycardia was easily induced and electroanatomical mapping was performed both during tachycardia and during sinus rhythm. Late diastolic potential preceding the onset of QRS wave by 45ms was detected at the infero-septal side of the apical aneurysm. 7 5s of the RF energy application at this site could terminate the tachycardia and thereafter no ventricular tachycardia was induced. But after dose-reduction or cessation of some anti-arrhythmic drugs, ventricular tachycardia was recurred and second session was performed. This time, no ventricular tachycardia was induced, then we performed isthmus transection and core isolation against the apical aneurysm. Thereafter no ventricular tachycardia was occurred in spite of dose-reduction or cessation of some anti-arrhythmic drugs.

(要約) Primary non-Hodgkin bone lymphoma (PBL) can involve solitary or multiple destructive bone lesions such as those of the femur or pelvis humerus, and some cases have osteolytic lesions. PBL is a rare disease in adults. Thus, PBL is rarely considered a differential diagnosis of the osteolytic tumor. In addition, PBL can be underdiagnosed because patients do not experience symptoms or show objective abnormalities in the early stage. Here, we reported an elderly patient with PBL in multiple bones, including the cranial and femoral bones that were fractured due to falling. J. Med. Invest. 66 : 347-350, August, 2019.

(要約) Immunoglobulin A vasculitis (IgAV), formerly known as Henoch-Schönlein purpura, primarily occurs during childhood between the ages of 3 and 15 years and is the most common form of systemic vasculitis in children ; its occurrence in adults has been rarely reported. Such low incidence could be attributable to either under-diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Thus, not only pediatricians but also physicians should be able to diagnose IgAV accurately to manage the patients appropriately and avoid its associated complications. In addition, treatment of adult onset IgAV with renal involvement has not been fully established yet. We describe here a case of adult onset IgAV complicated by proteinuria and pharyngitis, which was cured by no specific treatment. J. Med. Invest. 66 : 344-346, August, 2019.

(要約) To improve the prognosis of patients with heart failure, risk stratification in their early stage is important. We assessed whether the change in transmitral flow (TMF) velocity pattern during preload augmentation can predict future hemodynamic worsening in early-stage heart failure patients with impaired relaxation TMF pattern. We designed a prospective cohort study that included 155 consecutive patients with impaired relaxation (IR) pattern at rest. Preload stress echocardiography was achieved using leg-positive pressure (LPP), and changes in TMF pattern during the LPP was observed during baseline echocardiographic examination. The patients whose TMF pattern developed to pseudonormal (PN) pattern throughout the study period were classified into the change to PN group, and patients whose TMF pattern stayed in IR pattern were classified into the stay in IR group. The median follow-up period was 17 months. The average age was 68 ± 11 years old, and 97 patients (63%) were male. Among 155 patients, 27 were classified into the change to PN group. A Cox proportional hazard analysis confirmed that the change in the peak atrial systolic TMF velocity during the LPP (ΔA, hazard ratio = 0.58 per 1SD; 95% CI = 0.39-0.88, P = 0.010) was the powerful independent predictor of change into PN pattern. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the patients with ΔA -7 cm/s had more likely to develop into PN pattern than patients with ΔA > -7 cm/s (P = 0.001). Evaluation of a response in TMF during the LPP might provide an incremental diagnostic value to detect future overt heart failure in patients with early-stage heart failure.

(要約) It has been recognized that a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program improves mortality in patients with chronic heart failure. On the other hand, the magnitude of the improvement in exercise capacity after CR differs among individuals. The aim of this study was to assess the echocardiographic determinants of responders to CR using preload stress echocardiography. We prospectively enrolled 58 chronic heart failure patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (aged 62 ± 11 years; 69% male; left ventricular ejection fraction 43% ± 7%) who had received optimized medical treatment in a CR program for 5 months. We performed preload echocardiographic studies using leg positive pressure (LPP) to assess the echocardiographic parameters during preload augmentation. We defined 41 patients as a development cohort to assess the predictive value of echocardiographic variables. Next, we validated results in the remaining 17 patients as a validation cohort. In the development cohort, significant improvement in peak oxygen uptake (VO) (>10%) after CR was observed in 58% patients. In a multivariable logistic regression model, the significant predictor of improvement in exercise capacity was right ventricular (RV) strain during LPP (odds ratio: 3.96 per 1 standard deviation; P = 0.01). An RV strain value of -16% during LPP had a good sensitivity of 0.79 and a specificity of 0.71 to identify patients with improvement in peak VO. In the validation cohort, an optimal cutoff value of RV strain value was the same (area under the curve: 0.77, sensitivity: 0.78, specificity: 0.65). RV strain during LPP may be an echocardiographic parameter for assessing beneficial effects of CR.

(要約) The ability to identify risk markers for new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) is critical to the development of preventive strategies, but it remains unknown whether a combination of clinical, electrocardiographic, and echocardiographic parameters predicts the onset of AF. In the present study, we evaluated the predictive value of a combined score that includes these parameters.Methods and Results:We retrospectively studied 1,040 patients without AF who underwent both echocardiography and 24-h Holter electrocardiography between May 2005 and December 2010. During a median follow-up period of 68.4 months (IQR, 49.9-93.3 months), we investigated the incidence of new-onset AF. Of the 1,040 patients, 103 (9.9%) developed AF. Patients who developed AF were older than patients who did not. Total heart beats, premature atrial contraction (PAC) count, maximum RR interval, and frequency of sinus pause quantified on 24-h electrocardiography were associated with new-onset AF. LA diameter (LAD) on echocardiography was also associated with the development of AF. On multivariate Cox analysis, age 58 years, PAC count 80 beats/day, maximum RR interval 1.64 s, and LAD 4.5 cm were independently associated with the development of AF. The incidence rate of new-onset AF significantly increased as the combined score (i.e., the sum of the risk score determined using hazard ratios) increased. A combined score that includes age, PAC count, maximum RR interval, and LAD could help characterize the risk of new-onset AF.

(要約) Although increasing evidence suggests that epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) is associated with atrial fibrillation (AF), it is controversial whether there is a dose-response relationship of increasing EATV along the continuum of AF. We evaluated the effect of the EATV on the prevalence of paroxysmal AF (PAF) and persistent AF (PeAF) and the relationships with cardiac structure and functional remodeling.Methods and Results:Subjects who underwent multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) coronary angiography because of symptoms suggestive of coronary artery disease were divided into sinus rhythm (SR) (n=112), PAF (n=133), and PeAF (n=71) groups. The EATV index (EATV/body surface area, mL/m) was strongly associated with the prevalence of PAF and PeAF on the model adjusted for known AF risk factors. The effect of the EATV index on the prevalence of PeAF, but not on that of PAF, was modified by the left atrial (LA) dimension, suggesting that extension of the LA dimension is related to EATV expansion in PeAF. The cutoff value of the EATV index for the prevalence was higher in PeAF than in PAF (64 vs. 55 mL/m, P<0.01). The EATV index is associated with the prevalence of PAF and PeAF, and its cutoff values are predictive for PAF and PeAF development independently of other AF risk factors.

(要約) High prevalence of frailty and of diastolic dysfunction (DD) in heart failure and high mortality in frail adults have been noted. We characterized frailty by quantifying differences on echocardiography, and assessed the added prognostic utility of frailty and DD grade in an elderly population. One hundred and ninety-one patients 65 years who had at least 1 cardiovascular risk factor were prospectively recruited for clinically indicated echocardiography at the present institute. Weight loss, exhaustion, and deficits in physical activity, gait speed, and handgrip strength were used to categorize patients as frail (3 features), intermediately frail (1 or 2 features), or non-frail (0 features). DD grade 2 was defined as severe. Frailty was associated with larger left atrial volume, smaller stroke volume, and worse DD grade after adjustment for age. In a period of 14 months, 29 patients (15%) had cardiovascular events. The addition of frailty score and severe DD significantly improved the prognostic power of a model containing male gender (model 1, male gender, χ=6.4; model 2, model 1 plus frailty score, χ=16.7, P=0.004; model 3, model 2 plus severe DD, χ=25.5, P=0.015). Both frailty and DD grade were significantly associated with future cardiovascular events in an elderly population with preserved ejection fraction and 1 risk factor of cardiovascular disease.

(要約) -The coagulation system is closely linked with vascular inflammation, although the underlying mechanisms are still obscure. Recent studies show that protease-activated receptor (PAR)-2, a major receptor of activated factor X (FXa), are expressed in both vascular cells and leukocytes, suggesting that PAR-2 may contribute to the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. Here we investigated the role of PAR-2 in vascular inflammation and atherogenesis. -We generated apolipoprotein E-deficient ( ) mice lacking systemic PAR-2 expression ( ). mice which lack or express PAR-2 only in bone-marrow (BM) cells were also generated by BM transplantation. Atherosclerotic lesions were investigated after 20 weeks on a western-type diet (WTD) by histological analyses, quantitative RT-PCR, and western blotting. In vitro experiments using BM-derived macrophages were performed to confirm pro-inflammatory roles of PAR-2. The association between plasma FXa level and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis was also examined in humans who underwent coronary intervention. - mice showed reduced atherosclerotic lesions in the aortic arch (<0.05) along with features of stabilized atherosclerotic plaques such as less lipid deposition (<0.05), collagen loss (<0.01), macrophage accumulation (<0.05), and inflammatory molecule expression (<0.05) compared with mice. Systemic PAR2 deletion in mice significantly decreased the expression of inflammatory molecules in the aorta. The results of BM transplantation experiments demonstrated that PAR-2 in hematopoietic cells contributed to atherogenesis in mice. PAR-2 deletion did not alter metabolic parameters. In vitro experiments demonstrated that FXa or a specific peptide agonist of PAR-2 significantly increased expression of inflammatory molecules and lipid uptake in BM-derived macrophages from wild-type mice compared with those from PAR-2-deficient mice. Activation of NF- κB signaling was involved in PAR-2-associated vascular inflammation and macrophage activation. In humans who underwent coronary intervention, plasma FXa level independently correlated with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis as determined by Gensini score (<0.05) and plaque volume (<0.01). -PAR-2 signaling activates macrophages and promotes vascular inflammation, increasing atherosclerosis in mice. This signaling pathway may also participate in atherogenesis in humans.

(要約) Compared with global cardiac adiposity, the local accumulation of fat surrounding coronary arteries might have a more direct impact on coronary artery disease (CAD). Here, we compared the local epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness and global cardiac adiposity volumes for predicting CAD.Methods and Results:A total of 197 consecutive subjects underwent 320-slice multi-detector computed tomography coronary angiography and were segregated into CAD (1 coronary artery branch stenosis 50%) and non-CAD groups. EAT thickness was measured at the right coronary artery (EAT), the left anterior descending artery (EAT), and the left circumflex artery (EAT). Although EATand EATwere similar between the 2 groups, EATwas larger in the CAD group than in the non-CAD group (5.45±2.16 mm vs. 6.86±2.19 mm, P<0.001). EAT, after correcting for confounding factors, was strongly associated with CAD (r=0.276, P<0.001) and Gensini score (r=0.239, P<0.001). On multiple regression analysis, Framingham risk score combined with EATwas a strong predictor of CAD (adjusted R=0.121; P<0.001). The local fat thickness surrounding the LAD is a simple and useful surrogate marker for estimating the presence, severity, and extent of CAD, independent of classical cardiovascular risk factors.

(要約) It is well known that warfarin inhibits the synthesis of vitamin K-dependent anticoagulants, including thrombin, protein C and S, and factor Xa, leading, paradoxically, to an initial hypercoagulable state. Edoxaban, a direct inhibitor of activated factor X is widely used for the treatment of acute venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, the effect of edoxaban on circulating coagulation factors, in patients with acute VTE, remains unknown. We enrolled 57 patients with acute VTE with/without pulmonary embolism treated with edoxaban (n=37) or warfarin (n=20) in a clinical setting. Before treatment and 2 weeks after treatment, we evaluated thrombotic burden using ultrasound or computed tomography angiography. We also evaluated thrombin generation, represented by prothrombin fragment F1+2; thrombus degradation, represented by D-dimer; and levels of anticoagulants, including protein C, protein S, and antithrombin III. Both edoxaban and warfarin treatment improved thrombotic burden and decreased prothrombin fragment F1+2, and D-dimer. Edoxaban treatment preserved protein C and protein S levels. In contrast, warfarin decreased protein C and protein S levels. Neither treatment affected antithrombin III. Edoxaban improves VTE while preserving protein C and protein S levels, thereby indicating that edoxaban improves thrombotic burden while maintaining levels of anticoagulants.

(要約) Predictors for the effect of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors at lowering hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients remain unclear. We therefore aimed to elucidate these predictors in type 2 diabetes patients after 3 months of SGLT2 treatment. A total of 302 consecutive type 2 diabetes patients who had been treated with SGLT2 inhibitors as monotherapy or add-on therapy to existing antidiabetic treatments were enrolled retrospectively. After excluding 27 patients whose HbA1c levels could not be evaluated 3 months after treatment, the glucose-lowering effects of SGLT2 inhibitors were assessed in 275 patients by measuring HbA1c levels before and 3 months after treatment. The predictors for changes in HbA1c levels after 3 months of treatment were evaluated. SGLT2 inhibitor treatment for 3 months decreased HbA1c levels from 7.8 ± 1.2% to 7.4 ± 1.0% (p < 0.0001). A multiple regression analysis showed that the independent determinants for SGLT2 inhibitor treatment effect included decreased HbA1c levels after 1 month of treatment, high baseline HbA1c levels, and a high estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). We show that type 2 diabetes patients who received the greatest glucose-lowering effect with SGLT2 inhibitor treatment were those with preserved renal function (high baseline eGFR) and high baseline HbA1c levels. Moreover, SGLT2 inhibitor treatment efficacy could be predicted by the patients' initial response to treatment.

(要約) The n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), have antiarrhythmic effects, possibly via modulation of the cardiac ion channels. Nevertheless, it is unknown whether low serum levels of n-3 PUFAs are risk factors for ventricular fibrillation in patients with Brugada syndrome (BrS). We retrospectively reviewed data from 62 men with BrS and evaluated their serum levels of EPA and DHA, and the risk factors for sudden cardiac death, including a history of cardiogenic syncope. Nineteen patients had a history of cardiogenic syncope, and their EPA and DHA levels were significantly lower than those of the patients without syncope. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that low EPA and DHA levels were associated with the incidence of syncope. The receiver-operator characteristic curve showed the area under the curves of EPA and DHA for history of syncope were 0.84 and 0.72, respectively. In conclusion, low levels of EPA and DHA are risk factors for cardiogenic syncope in patients with BrS, which suggests that n-3 PUFAs play important roles in preventing ventricular fibrillation in BrS.

(要約) Participation in a comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation (CR) program has been shown to reduce mortality and improve exercise capacity and symptoms in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Reduced exercise capacity leads to a concomitant reduction of skeletal muscle mass and accumulation of body fat. However, it is currently unknown whether CR reduces visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and/or subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SAT) in patients with CHF. In addition, the body composition associated with improved exercise capacity after CR in patients with CHF has not been previously studied. Nineteen CHF patients who were categorized as NYHA functional class II or III and had received optimal medical treatment including a CR program for 5 months were enrolled in this study. The CR program significantly increased peak VO and reduced B-type natriuretic peptide. In addition, fat and body composition analysis showed reductions in the visceral fat tissue (VAT) area, subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SAT) area, body weight, and total fat weight after CR. There were no changes in total water weight and total muscle weight. Single regression analysis revealed that the amelioration of reduced exercise capacity seen after CR is associated with reduced VAT area but not with SAT area or body weight. In conclusion, CR reduces VAT and improves exercise capacity in patients with CHF. This suggests that reducing VAT is important for CR to be most effective in the treatment of CHF.

(要約) It is unknown whether canagliflozin, a selective sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor, reduces epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) thickness, which is associated with insulin resistance and is a risk factor for coronary artery disease. We administered 100 mg of canagliflozin for 6 months to 13 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We evaluated glycemic control, visceral adipose tissue (VAT) area and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) area, and skeletal muscle mass by using impedance methods, and EAT thickness by using echocardiography. Canagliflozin treatment for 6 months decreased hemoglobin A1c level from 7.1 ± 0.5% to 6.7 ± 0.6% (P < 0.05) and decreased EAT thickness from 9.3 ± 2.5 to 7.3 ± 2.0 mm (P < 0.001), along with a trend of decreasing VAT and SAT area. No association was found between any of these changes. Canagliflozin reduced EAT thickness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus independent of its effect on lowering blood glucose, suggesting that canagliflozin may have an effect in preventing cardiovascular events in these patients (UMIN000021327).

Cardiovascular Imaging, Vol.10, No.10, 2017. (要約) The projected aortic valve area (AVA) at a normal transvalvular flow rate using dobutamine is helpful to determine the actual severity of aortic stenosis (AS) and to predict risk of adverse events in low-gradient AS cases with unclear surgical indication. Our study aimed to identify the independent and incremental value of preload stress echocardiography-derived AVA to predict outcomes in patients with preserved ejection fraction and low-gradient AS. We prospectively performed echocardiographic studies in 79 patients with low-gradient AS (age, 77±7 years; 30% men) with preload stress echocardiography using leg positive pressure. AVA was calculated using AVA and transvalvular flow rate at baseline and during leg positive pressure. The primary end point was the decision for aortic valve surgery or cardiac death. During a median period of 19 months, 23 patients had the decision for aortic valve surgery, and none died during follow-up. In a stepwise multivariable analysis, indexed AVA (AVAi; hazard ratio, 2.00 per 0.1 cm/m decrease; 95% confidence interval, 1.36-2.96; <0.001) was associated with the primary end point. Using a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the best cutoff value of AVAi for predicting cardiac events was <0.72 cm/m. By incorporating AVAi into AVAi at baseline, continuous net reclassification index for cardiac events was 0.48 (=0.04). In patients with low-gradient AS, indexed AVA derived from preload stress echocardiography can be useful to predict risk of adverse events. The present article should be considered as a proof of concept study, and we think that larger multicenter studies are warranted.

(要約) Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is the ectopic visceral fat surrounding the heart, which plays an important role in atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries via endothelial damage. Several studies have also suggested that vasospasm with angina (VSA) causes endothelial dysfunction in the coronary arteries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the thickness of EAT in the anterior interventricular groove (EAT-AIG) using echocardiography in patients who had no obstructive coronary artery disease and were suspected of having VSA. Sixty-five patients who underwent intracoronary acetylcholine provocation testing for clinical indications were prospectively enrolled. VSA was diagnosed by coronary artery stenosis increase of >90% and the presentation of chest pain with ischemic changes on electrocardiography. Subjects were divided into two groups, with and without significant coronary spasm (VSA group, 30 patients; non-VSA group, 35 patients), consistent with acetylcholine provocation testing. EAT-AIG thickness was significantly greater in the VSA group than in the non-VSA group (8.2 2.7 vs 6.1 2.5 mm, P = .002). By receiver operating characteristic analysis, EAT-AIG thickness had a high C statistic (area under the curve = 0.81, P < .001) after adjustment for conventional risk factors (smoking, diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia). EAT-AIG thickness had incremental diagnostic value over other conventional risk factors (area under the curve = 0.81 vs 0.64, P for comparison = .020). EAT-AIG thickness, which is noninvasively and easily measured using transthoracic echocardiography, can be one of multiple clinical variables associated with VSA.

Determinants and worsening of 6MWD remain a matter of debate because nonpulmonary factors have an impact on the 6MWD. We hypothesized that future reduction of 6MWD in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) was more closely associated with cardiac dysfunction. We prospectively performed standard clinical and echocardiographic evaluations in SSc patients with the 6-minute walk test at enrollment. Features associated with the 6MWD were sought in a multiple linear regression analysis and compared using standardized . Worsening of the 6MWD was defined as a 15% reduction and served as the primary outcome. Eighty-one patients were included. In the multivariate analysis, baseline 6MWD was related to SSc severity score ( = -0.250, p = 0.024), left atrial volume index ( = -0.222, p = 0.046), right ventricular fractional area change ( = 0.252, p = 0.025), and the ratio of mean pulmonary artery pressure and cardiac output ( = -0.31, p = 0.002). During follow-up, 20 patients reached the primary outcome. In sequential Cox models, a model based on right ventricular fractional area change at baseline (chi-square 4.8) was improved by left atrial volume index (chi-square 10.3, p = 0.007). In conclusion, determinants and worsening of 6MWD are explained by cardiac factors. When using the 6MWD as a clinical marker in pulmonary hypertension patients, their left ventricular diastolic function and right ventricular systolic function should be taken into consideration.

Cardiovascular Imaging, Vol.10, No.10, 1240-1249, 2017. (要約) The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between right ventricular (RV) function during pre-load augmentation and exercise tolerance. Peak oxygen uptake (VO2) is a strong predictor of mortality in chronic heart failure. Cardiac function during pre-load augmentation is an important part of the phenomenon in the evaluation of exercise capacity. We prospectively performed echocardiographic studies in 68 chronic heart failure patients with cardiopulmonary exercise testing (mean age 60 ± 12 years; 69% male). After resting evaluations, echocardiographic parameters were repeated during leg positive pressure (LPP). Exercise capacity was assessed by peak VO2 in all patients (left ventricular ejection fraction: 43 ± 15%). Patients with severely reduced exercise capacity (peak VO2 <14 ml/kg/min) had significantly lower stroke volume index, left ventricular global longitudinal strain and RV strain and higher filling pressure (E/e' and pulmonary arterial systolic pressure) than the remainder. Stroke volume index ( = 0.49), global longitudinal strain ( = -0.61), E/e' ( = -0.32), pulmonary arterial systolic pressure ( = -0.57), and RV strain ( = -0.66) during LPP were independently correlated to peak VO2 (all p < 0.01). RV strain during LPP was the most powerful predictor in identifying patients with severely reduced exercise capacity (cut off value: -17%; sensitivity: 81%; specificity: 88%; areas under the curve: 0.88; p < 0.001) compared with other variables including resting parameters. RV strain during pre-load augmentation correlated independently to peak VO2 and was a powerful predictor in identifying patients with severely reduced exercise capacity.

(要約) Natriuretic peptides have been proposed as biomarkers of cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) has also been shown to be upregulated at the transcriptional and translational levels by pro-inflammatory cytokines in cardiac myocytes. Although we often measure plasma BNP levels in cancer patients, it remains unknown whether cancer-related inflammation affects the plasma BNP levels. We investigated the relationship between the BNP and human cancers. We retrospectively studied 2,923 patients in whom the plasma BNP levels and serum C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured and echocardiography was performed. Patients with clinically evident heart failure (NYHA II or higher), heart disease requiring medical treatment or surgery, renal dysfunction, and inflammatory disease were excluded. There were 234 patients in the final analysis. Blood sampling was performed before surgery and chemotherapy. In addition, we evaluated the relationship between the inflammation and plasma BNP levels in mouse models of colon cancer. Of the 234 patients, 80 were diagnosed with cancer. Both the plasma BNP and serum CRP levels were significantly higher in cancer patients than those without. There were no significant differences in the echocardiographic parameters. There was a significant positive correlation between the plasma BNP and serum CRP levels in cancer patients (r = 0.360, P<0.01) but not in those without. In cancer patients, only the CRP correlated with the BNP independent of the age, creatinine level, hypertension, and body mass index. In addition, in nude mice with subcutaneous colon cancer, the plasma BNP level was elevated compared with that in non-cancer mice, and there was a significant relationship between the plasma BNP and serum levels of the inflammatory markers. In cancer patients, as well as colon cancer model mice, the plasma BNP levels were elevated, possibly due to cancer-related inflammation. The effect of cancer on the BNP levels should be considered when using BNP as an indicator of heart failure in cancer patients.

Cardiovascular Imaging, Vol.10, No.2, 118-126, 2017. (要約) Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the time course of presumptive TIC and the predictors of LV functional recovery in such patients.Background: Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (TIC) is a potentially reversible cardiomyopathy with effective treatment of the tachyarrhythmia. However, cases without improvement of left ventricular (LV) systolic function were found occasionally. The diagnosis of TIC can be challenging, and the role of echocardiographic imaging in the prediction of LV functional recovery is limited.Methods: LV segmental longitudinal strains (LS) were evaluated by 2-dimensional speckle tracking in 71 consecutive patients (65±16 years; 61% men) with tachyarrhythmia and reduced LV ejection fraction (EF) without any other known cardiovascular disease, and 30 age and gender matched control subjects. Relative apical LS ratio (RALSR) was defined using the equation: average apical LS / (average basal LS + average mid LS) as a marker of strain distribution.Results: Compared to control subjects, patients with tachyarrhythmia had significantly lower global LS. Improvement in LVEF within 6 months after treatment of index arrhythmia was observed in 41 patients, and LVEF did not improve in 30 patients. In univariate analysis, lower LVEF at baseline (hazard ratio: HR: 0.59 per 1SD, p=0.04) and higher RALSR (HR: 11.2 per 1SD, p <0.001) were associated with no recovery in LVEF during follow-up. In a multivariate logistic regression model, the significant predictor of LV systolic functional recovery was RALSR (HR: 22.9 per 1SD, p=0.001). A RALSR of 0.61 was sensitive (71%) and specific (90%) in differentiating LV systolic functional recovery (area under the curve: 0.88).Conclusions: The RALSR was associated with LV systolic functional recovery. This information might be useful for clinical evaluation and follow-up in patients with reduced LVEF.

(要約) BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are major components of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) which inhibit atherogenesis, although few studies have examined the effects of the combination of EPA and DHA on atherogenesis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether DHA has additional anti-atherosclerotic effects when combined with EPA.METHODS: Male 8-week-old apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apoe-/-) mice were fed a western-type diet supplemented with different amounts of EPA and DHA; EPA (2.5%, w/w), low-dose EPA + DHA (2.5%, w/w), or high-dose EPA + DHA (5%, w/w) for 20 weeks. The control group was fed a western-type diet containing no n-3 PUFA. Histological and gene expression analysis were performed in atherosclerotic lesions in the aorta. To address the mechanisms, RAW264.7 cells were used.RESULTS: All n-3 PUFA treatments significantly attenuated the development and destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques compared with the control. The anti-atherosclerotic effects were enhanced in the high-dose EPA + DHA group (p < 0.001), whereas the pure EPA group and low-dose EPA + DHA group showed similar results. EPA and DHA additively attenuated the expression of inflammatory molecules in RAW264.7 cells stimulated with LPS. DHA or EPA + DHA suppressed LPS-induced toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression in lipid rafts on RAW264.7 cells (p < 0.05). Lipid raft disruption by methyl--cyclodextrin suppressed mRNA expression of inflammatory molecules in LPS-stimulated macrophages.CONCLUSION: n-3 PUFAs suppressed atherogenesis. DHA combined with EPA had additional anti-inflammatory effects and inhibited atherogenesis in Apoe-/- mice. The reduction of TLR4 expression in lipid rafts in macrophages by DHA might be involved in this mechanism, at least partially.

(要約) The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) regulate body fluids. Although conventional diuretics have been used for treating heart failure, they activate RAAS and exacerbate renal function. Tolvaptan, a newly developed vasopressin-2 receptor antagonist, elicits aquaresis and improves volume overload in heart failure patients, however, the predictors of tolvaptan effectiveness and the influence on the RAAS and renal function according to tolvaptan therapy are not established. We evaluated 26 chronic heart failure patients receiving therapy with 15 mg/day tolvaptan and examined their laboratory and urinary data before and after tolvaptan therapy. A response to tolvaptan was defined as a body weight decrease by more than 2 kg in a week and a urine volume increase by 500 mL/ day compared with that before tolvaptan administration. Body weight, urine volume, and brain natriuretic peptide levels significantly improved (P < 0.05), without any worsening of renal function represented by serum creatinine, sodium, and potassium. Moreover, no significant changes were observed in the plasma renin activity and plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC). In the responder group, urine osmolality before tolvaptan administration was significantly higher (P < 0.05) but declined significantly after tolvaptan administration (P < 0.05). The AVP/PAC ratio before administration was positively correlated with the efficacy of tolvaptan. Tolvaptan treatment could prevent RAAS activation in chronic heart failure patients. Moreover, monitoring the AVP/PAC ratio may be useful in predicting the tolvaptan response.

(要約) BACKGROUND: The underlying mechanism of atrial substrate remodeling in atrial fibrillation (AF) remains unknown. In this study, we investigated whether local and systemic levels of microRNA (miR) might be associated with the presence of AF and with left atrial (LA) substrate properties.METHODS: Blood from the periphery, pulmonary vein (PV), and left atrial appendage (LAA) was sampled from 30 patients with AF undergoing PV isolation, and from 10 control subjects with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and without AF. We measured peripheral, PV, and LAA plasma levels of miR-1, -26, -133a, -328, and -590 by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. LA global contact mapping during sinus rhythm was performed before PV isolation.RESULTS: Plasma levels of miR-328 were higher in patients with AF than in control subjects. Plasma miR-328 levels were significantly higher in the LAA than in the periphery and PV in patients with AF, but not in control subjects. Plasma miR-1 levels were also higher in the LAA than in the PV in AF patients. Interestingly, LAA plasma levels of miR-328 showed a positive correlation with the LA voltage zone index (area with voltage <0.5mV divided by total LA surface area) and a weak correlation with LA volume.CONCLUSION: Local production of miR-328 in the left atrium may be involved in the process of atrial remodeling in patients with AF.

(要約) BACKGROUND: The effects of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on coronary artery disease have been previously reported; however, those of the addition of EPA to strong statins on coronary plaque components and local inflammatory cytokines are not known.METHODSANDRESULTS: A total of 95 patients who had been treated with strong statin for at least 6 months were randomized into 2 groups: an EPA group (additional treatment with EPA at 1,800 mg/day, n=48) or a control group (no additional treatment, n=47), for 6 months. The tissue characteristics of target coronary plaque in each patient were analyzed using IB-IVUS before and after treatment. We also measured plasma levels of inflammatory cytokines sampled in the coronary sinus (CS) and peripheral vein.A significant reduction in lipid volume (18.5±1.3 to 15.0±1.5 mm(3), P=0.007) and a significant increase in fibrous volume (22.9±0.8 to 25.6±1.1 mm(3), P=0.01) were observed in IB-IVUS image analyses in the EPA group, but no significant changes in the plaque components in the control group. CS levels of pentraxin 3 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 were lower after than before treatment with EPA (3.3±2.1 to 2.6±1.2 ng/ml, 120.4±26.2 to 110.2±26.8 pg/ml, P=0.015 and P=0.008, respectively); however, there were no significant changes in those inflammatory cytokines between pre- and post-treatment in the control group.CONCLUSIONS: The addition of EPA was associated with reduced lipid volume in coronary plaques and decreased inflammatory cytokines.

(要約) BACKGROUND: The hospitalization rate for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) for people aged 50 has remained stable over the past decade. Increased serum levels of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), are associated with a decreased incidence of cardiovascular events and mortality in older patients; however, it is currently unknown whether reduced serum levels of n-3 PUFAs is also a risk factor for ACS in patients aged 50 years.METHODS AND RESULTS: We retrospectively reviewed 102 (male/ female 73/29) Japanese ACS patients whose serum levels of EPA/arachidonic acid (AA) and DHA/AA were evaluated on admission. The EPA/AA ratio was the lowest in patients aged 50 compared to patients aged 51-74 and 75. Pearson correlation analysis showed that early ACS onset was associated with low EPA/AA and DHA/AA ratios, and multiple regression analysis determined that decreased ratios of EPA/AA and DHA/AA, and male sex, current smoker status, increased body mass index and triglyceride levels, independently correlated with early ACS onset. Conversely, low-density and high-density lipoproteins, glycated hemoglobin, and hypertension did not correlate with early ACS onset. Subgroup analyses of male patients revealed that decreased ratios of EPA/AA and DHA/AA independently correlated with early ACS onset.CONCLUSION: Decreased EPA/AA and DHA/AA ratios may be risk factors for early onset of ACS, suggesting that reduced EPA/AA and DHA/AA may represent targets for preventing ACS in Japanese young people.

(要約) ObjectivesThe promotion of adipose tissue inflammation by lifestyle-related diseases such as obesity and diabetes accelerates atherogenesis; however, the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Nucleotide-binding domain, leucine-rich-containing family, pyrin domain-containing-3 (NLRP3) inflammasome contributes to chronic inflammation in adipose tissue. Here, we investigated the link between NLRP3 expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.Methods and resultsSAT was obtained from 72 patients who underwent heart device implantation and coronary angiography. Expression of NLRP3 inflammasome-related molecules (NLRP3, IL-1 and IL-18) in SAT were evaluated by quantitative RT-PCR. Laboratory markers related to lifestyle-related diseases were measured. Patients with obesity, dyslipidemia (P < 0.05, respectively), diabetes or hyperuricemia (P < 0.01, respectively) had significantly higher expression of NLRP3. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that body mass index and serum level of uric acid were predictors of NLRP3 expression in SAT. The expression of NLRP3 in SAT correlated negatively with serum adiponectin level (r = 0.23, P < 0.05). Patients with coronary artery disease showed higher NLRP3 expression than patients without significant stenosis (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the expression of NLRP3 in SAT correlated positively with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis as determined by Gensini score (r = 0.47, P < 0.0001) or SYNTAX score (r = 0.55, P < 0.0001). Multiple regression analysis revealed that the expression of NLRP3 in SAT remains as an independent predictors for the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.ConclusionsThe expression of NLRP3 in SAT, which is affected by lifestyle-related diseases, is associated with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis. Our results suggest that NLRP3 inflammasome in SAT may have a role in atherogenesis.

(要約) OBJECTIVE: Activated factor X (FXa) plays a key role in the coagulation cascade, whereas accumulating evidence suggests that it also contributes to the pathophysiology of chronic inflammation on the vasculature. In this study, we assessed the hypothesis that rivaroxaban (Riv), a direct FXa inhibitor, inhibits atherogenesis by reducing macrophage activation.METHODS AND RESULTS: Expression levels of PAR-1 and PAR-2, receptors for FXa, increased in the aorta of apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE(-/-)) mice compared with wild-type mice (P < 0.01, P < 0.05, respectively). Administration of Riv (5 mg/kg/day) for 20 weeks to 8-week-old ApoE(-/-) mice reduced atherosclerotic lesion progression in the aortic arch as determined by en-face Sudan IV staining compared with the non-treated group (P < 0.05) without alteration of plasma lipid levels and blood pressure. Histological analyses demonstrated that Riv significantly decreased lipid deposition, collagen loss, macrophage accumulation and matrix metallopeptidase-9 (MMP-9) expression in atherosclerotic plaques in the aortic root. Quantitative RT-PCR analyses using abdominal aorta revealed that Riv significantly reduced mRNA expression of inflammatory molecules, such as MMP-9, tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-). In vitro experiments using mouse peritoneal macrophages or murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7 demonstrated that FXa increased mRNA expression of inflammatory molecules (e.g., interleukin (IL)-1 and TNF-), which was blocked in the presence of Riv.CONCLUSIONS: Riv attenuates atherosclerotic plaque progression and destabilization in ApoE(-/-) mice, at least in part by inhibiting pro-inflammatory activation of macrophages. These results indicate that Riv may be particularly beneficial for the management of atherosclerotic diseases, in addition to its antithrombotic activity.

(要約) The relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and coronary artery disease (CAD) has recently attracted a great deal of attention in the medical community. The objective of this study was to determine whether measuring EAT thickness in the anterior interventricular groove (AIG) using echocardiography is feasible and whether this index can be a marker of CAD. A total of 311 patients (mean age, 67 ± 11 years; 208 men) who underwent coronary angiography between December 2011 and December 2013 were prospectively enrolled. EAT-AIG thickness and EAT thickness on the free wall of the right ventricle (RV) were measured in systole using a high-frequency linear probe. Seventy-one patients who underwent multidetector-row computed tomography were enrolled to validate the method for measuring EAT thickness using echocardiography. Subjects were divided into two groups, those with and without significant coronary stenosis, on the basis of findings on coronary angiography (≥ 75% luminal narrowing). EAT-AIG thickness measured using echocardiography was validated by computed tomography. EAT-AIG thickness was strongly correlated with EAT volume (r = 0.714, P < .001). The CAD group had thicker EAT-AIG than the non-CAD group (8.3 ± 3.0 vs 6.3 ± 2.5 mm, P < .001). EAT-RV thickness was greater in the CAD group than in the non-CAD group (5.0 ± 2.1 vs 4.4 ± 2.3 mm, P = .009) as well. The area under the curve on receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of EAT-AIG thickness for predicting CAD was 0.704, which was higher than the EAT-RV thickness. Measuring EAT thickness using echocardiography with a high-frequency linear probe was validated with computed tomography. EAT-AIG was thicker in the CAD group than in the non-CAD group, as was EAT-RV thickness. This noninvasive index may have potential as a diagnostic marker for predicting coronary atherosclerosis.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Predictive factors for the efficacy of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors for lowering glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) remain unclear in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study is therefore to clarify predictive factors of the efficacy of DPP-4 inhibitors for lowering HbA1c after 12 months of treatment.METHODS: A total of 191 consecutive type 2 diabetic patients (male sex 55%, mean age, 68.3±35.8 years), who had been treated with DPP-4 inhibitors for 12 months, were enrolled in this study and evaluated retrospectively.RESULTS: After 12 months of DPP-4 inhibitor treatment, random blood glucose level, and HbA1c level, decreased from 167±63 to 151±49 mg/dL (P<0.01), and from 7.5%±1.3% to 6.9%±0.9% (P<0.01) respectively, without severe side effects. Multiple regression analysis showed that predictors of DPP-4 inhibitor treatment efficacy in lowering HbA1c level after 12 months were a decrease in HbA1c level after 3 months of treatment, a high baseline HbA1c level, a low baseline body mass index, and the absence of coronary artery disease.CONCLUSION: Most suitable candidates for treatment with DPP-4 inhibitors are diabetics who are not obese and do not have coronary artery disease. In addition, long-term efficacy of DPP-4 inhibitors can be predicted by decrement of HbA1c after 3 months of treatment.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Early detection of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in connective tissue disease (CTD) is crucial to ensuring that patients receive timely treatment for this progressive disease. Exercise stress tests have been used to screen patients in an attempt to identify early-stage PH. Recent studies have described abnormal mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP)-cardiac output (Q) responses as having the potential to assess the disease state.OBJECTIVES: This study hypothesized that pulmonary circulation pressure-flow relationships obtained by 6-min walk (6MW) stress echocardiography would better delineate differential progression of PH and predict development of PH during follow-up.METHODS: We prospectively performed 6MW stress echocardiographic studies in 78 CTD patients (age 58 ± 12 years; 9% male) at baseline and follow-up. All patients underwent yearly echocardiographic follow-up studies for up to 5 years.RESULTS: During a median period of 32 months (range: 15 to 62 months), 16 patients reached the clinical endpoint of development of PH and none died during follow-up. PH was confirmed by right heart catheterization in all 16 patients (mPAP 25 mm Hg and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure 15 mm Hg). In a Cox proportional-hazards survival model, 6MW distance (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.99; p = 0.010), early diastolic tricuspid annulus motion velocity (HR: 0.79; p = 0.025), and mPAP/Q by 6MW stress (HR: 1.10; p = 0.005) were associated with development of PH. In sequential Cox models, a model on the basis of 6MW distance (chi-square, 6.6) was improved by mPAP/Q (chi-square: 14.4; p = 0.019). Using a receiver-operating characteristic curve, we found that the best cutoff value of mPAP/Q for predicting development of pulmonary hypertension was >3.3 mm Hg/l/min.CONCLUSIONS: The 6MW stress echocardiography noninvasively provides an incremental prognostic value of PH development in CTD. This is a single-center prospective cohort study. Larger multicenter studies are warranted to confirm this result.

(要約) BACKGROUND: The association of the tissue characteristics of carotid plaques with coronary artery disease has attracted interest. The present study compared the tissue characteristics of carotid plaques in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with those in patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) using the iPlaque system, which is based on ultrasound integrated backscatter.METHODS AND RESULTS: Carotid ultrasound examinations were performed in 26 patients with ACS, and 38 age- and gender-matched patients with SAP. Neither plaque area nor maximal intima-media thickness differed significantly between the two groups. However, the average integrated backscatter value within the plaque was greater in the ACS patients than in the SAP patients. iPlaque analysis revealed that the percentage blue area (lipid pool) was greater in the ACS patients than in the SAP patients (43.4±11.2 vs 18.3±10.3 %, p<0.0001), and that the percentage green area (fibrosis) was lower in the ACS than in the SAP patients (7.5±7.5 % vs 20.7±11.7 %, p<0.0001).CONCLUSIONS: The lipid component of carotid plaques is greater in ACS patients than in SAP patients. Our iPlaque system provides a useful and feasible method for the tissue characterization of carotid plaques in the clinical setting.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Uremic toxin has emerged as an important determinant of cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between serum uremic toxin and coronary plaque composition on integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS).MethodsandResults:IB-IVUS was performed in 47 patients with planned treatment for angina pectoris. Non-culprit intermediate plaque analyzed in this study had to be >5 mm apart from the intervention site. 3-D IB-IVUS analysis was performed to determine percent lipid volume (LV) and fibrous volume (FV). We also measured serum uremic toxins (indoxyl sulfate [IS], asymmetric dimethylarginine [ADMA], and p-cresol [PC]). Glomerular filtration rate correlated with IS (r=-0.329, P=0.04), but did not correlate with ADMA or PC. Percent LV correlated with IS (r=0.365, P=0.02), but did not correlate with ADMA or PC. Percent FV also correlated with IS (r=-0.356, P=0.03), but did not correlate with ADMA or PC. On multivariate regression, only IS was associated with percent LV (r=0.359, P=0.04) and percent FV (r=-0.305, P=0.04) independently of potentially confounding coronary risk factors.CONCLUSIONS: Among the uremic toxins, serum IS might be a novel useful biomarker to detect and monitor lipid-rich coronary plaque on IB imaging.

(要約) AIM: The consumption of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), including docosahexaenoic acid DHA), reduces the incidence of cardiovascular events, and reduced serum levels of n-3 PUFA may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. However, controversy remains regarding which components of PUFA are associated with the endothelial function in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). We therefore examined the associations between the n-3 and n-6 PUFA levels and CAD.METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 160 consecutive Japanese patients with CAD whose endothelial function was measured according to the percent change in flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and the serum levels of n-3 PUFA, including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and DHA, and n-6 PUFA, including arachidonic acid (AA) and dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DHLA).RESULTS: A single regression analysis showed no relationships between the FMD and the serum levels of PUFA, including EPA, DHA, AA and DHLA. In contrast, a multiple regression analysis showed that the DHA level was a positive (P0.01) and age was a negative (P0.001) contributor to an increased FMD; however, sex, body mass index, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, current/past smoking and the levels of HbA1c, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, EPA, AA and DHLA did not significantly affect the outcome.CONCLUSIONS: The serum level of DHA is associated with the endothelial function evaluated according to the FMD in patients with CAD, thus suggesting that a low serum level of DHA may be a predictive biomarker for endothelial dysfunction.

(要約) Several studies have shown that various chemokines are more highly expressed in atherosclerotic plaques than in normal vessel walls. In the present study, we investigated the relationship between coronary atherosclerosis and noteworthy chemokines, including interferon-inducible protein of 10 kD (IP-10); monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1); regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted (RANTES); and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP), an established marker of atherosclerotic disease. We studied 28 patients who underwent coronary angiography because of suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD was defined as stenosis of more than 50% of the vessel diameter on coronary angiograms. Blood samples were obtained both from the aorta and the coronary sinus (CS) just before coronary angiography. Relative to CAD (-) patients, those who were CAD (+) tended to have higher plasma concentrations of IP-10 in the aorta, as well as significantly higher transcoronary concentration gradients of circulating IP-10. There were no significant differences between the two groups in aortic plasma concentrations or transcoronary concentration gradients of MCP-1, RANTES, and hsCRP. Furthermore, both the aortic plasma concentrations and transcoronary concentration gradients of IP-10 correlated with the Gensini score (r = 0.58 and r = 0.63, respectively, P < 0.01), while the plasma MCP-1, RANTES, and serum hsCRP concentrations did not. This study suggests that IP-10 is a good surrogate marker of coronary atherosclerosis.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Although numerous studies have reported altered plasma levels of various microRNAs (miRNAs) in patients with cardiovascular disease, there are no data on the relationship between plasma miRNAs and vulnerable coronary plaque. In this study, we investigated whether plasma miRNAs might be a sensitive marker of coronary plaque vulnerability.MethodsandResults:Integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS) was performed in 32 consecutive patients with angina pectoris who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. Three-dimensional analysis of IB-IVUS was performed to determine the percentage of lipid volume (%LV) and fibrous volume (%FV). Circulating miRNAs were measured in EDTA-plasma simultaneously obtained from the aorta and the coronary sinus (CS). Muscle-enriched (miR-133a, miR-208a, miR-499), vascular-enriched (miR-92a, miR-100, miR-126, miR-127, miR-145), and myeloid cell-enriched miRNAs (miR-155, miR-223) were measured. Plasma miR-100 was higher in the CS than in the aorta, but there were no significant differences in the levels of other miRNAs between the aorta and CS. Plasma miR-100 in the aorta was positively correlated with %LV (r=0.48, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with %FV (r=-0.41, P<0.05). Importantly, transcoronary concentration gradient of circulating miR-100 was more strongly correlated with %LV (r=0.53, P<0.01) and %FV (r=-0.56, P<0.01).CONCLUSIONS: miR-100 might be released into the coronary circulation from vulnerable coronary plaques. This study provides insights into the role of miRNAs in coronary atherosclerotic disease. (Circ J 2015; 79: 413-418).

(要約) Urinary albumin excretion is a predictor of cardiovascular death. Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) with exercise training (ET) has been shown to improve exercise capacity and prognosis in patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, it remains unclear whether CR reduces urinary albumin excretion in CVD patients. We performed a retrospective, observational study using data obtained from 98 male CVD patients without macroalbuminuria and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 30 mL/minute/1.73 m(2) who participated in CR with ET during hospitalization. Twenty-three patients continued supervised ET for 6 months (supervised group) and 75 patients quit supervised ET (non-supervised group). The supervised ET program consisted of 60 minutes of supervised sessions 1-3 times a week and 30-60 minutes of home exercise at least twice a week. Urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) was significantly decreased in the supervised group at 6 months after enrollment (43 ± 71 mg/g to 17 ± 20 mg/g creatinine, P < 0.05) but not in the non-supervised group. eGFR was unchanged in the supervised group but was significantly decreased in the non-supervised group (72 ± 18 mL/minute/1.73 m(2) to 67 ± 17 mL/minute/1.73 m(2), P < 0.001). The results of multiple regression analysis showed that only supervised ET was an independent contributor to ACR. CR with supervised ET decreased urinary albumin excretion without deterioration of renal function. These findings suggest that continuation of a supervised ET program is associated with reduction in the development of CVD and reduction in cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in CVD patients.

(要約) Background: Hypertension is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease and mortality. Patients who receive insufficient doses of antihypertensive agents or who are poorly adherent to multidrug treatment regimens often fail to achieve adequate blood pressure (BP) control. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) and calcium channel blocker (CCB) combination tablet containing a regular dose of irbesartan (100 mg) and a high dose of amlodipine (10 mg) with regard to lowering BP and other risk factors for cardiovascular disease.Methods: We retrospectively evaluated data from 68 patients with essential hypertension whose treatment regimen was changed either from combination treatment with an independent ARB and a low-dose or regular-dose CCB or from a combination tablet of ARB and a low-dose or regular-dose CCB to a combination tablet containing amlodipine 10 mg and irbesartan 100 mg, because of incomplete BP control. Previous treatments did not include irbesartan as the ARB.Results: The combination tablet decreased systolic and diastolic BP. In addition, it significantly decreased serum uric acid, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and increased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, independent of the BP-lowering effect. Treatment with the combination tablet did not affect serum triglycerides, plasma glucose, glycated hemoglobin, serum potassium or creatinine levels, or the urinary albumin excretion rate.Conclusion: The combination tablet containing amlodipine 10 mg and irbesartan 100 mg had a greater BP-lowering effect than an ARB and a low-dose or regular-dose CCB. In addition, the combination tablet had more favorable effects on serum uric acid, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in patients with hypertension.

(要約) The impact of the fractional flow reserve (FFR) on clinical decision-making remains unclear in daily practice. The CVIT-DEFER registry is a prospective multicenter registry enrolling consecutive patients with angiographically intermediate coronary stenosis for whom FFR measurement is clinically indicated. The treatment strategy determined from angiographic findings alone and the strategy selected after FFR measurement were compared. Data on the treatment strategy were obtained for 3093 subjects. The average age of these subjects was 69.5 ± 10.2 years and 73.8 % were men. The majority had stable coronary artery disease, including 60.4 % with stable angina pectoris. The treatment strategy based on angiographic findings was medical management in 34.5 %, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in 63.5 %, and coronary artery bypass grafting in 2.1 %. The FFR was 0.8 in 1566 lesions (42.2 %). After FFR measurement, medical treatment was changed to revascularization in 19.7 %, while PCI was switched to medical treatment in 57.4 % at the lesion level. As a result, reclassification of the treatment strategy at the patient level was done in 39.0 % of the patients. Revascularization was frequently switched to medical treatment after FFR measurement. These findings support the clinical utility of employing FFR data to guide selection of PCI.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Recent studies have shown that intake of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) is associated with reduced risk of cognitive impairment and coronary artery disease (CAD); however, it is currently unknown whether reduced serum n-3 PUFA is associated with cognitive impairment in patients with CAD.METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated cognitive function with the mini-mental state examination (MMSE), serum levels of PUFAs (including eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA], docosahexaenoic acid [DHA], dihomogammalinolenic acid [DGLA], and arachidonic acid [AA]), cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular disease, and history of current/previous smoking), and parameters of cardiac function (left ventricular ejection fraction and brain natriuretic peptide levels) in 146 Japanese CAD patients. The associations between the MMSE scores and the other parameters were evaluated.RESULTS: Pearson correlation analysis showed that EPA (R =0.25, P <0.01), EPA/AA ratio (R =0.22, P =0.01), and left ventricular ejection fraction (R =0.15, P =0.04) were positively associated with MMSE score, and that age (R = -0.20, P <0.01) and brain natriuretic peptide levels (R = -0.28, P <0.01) were inversely associated with MMSE score. Multiple regression analysis showed that age (P <0.05) was negatively associated with MMSE score, while EPA (P <0.01) and EPA/AA ratio (P <0.05) were positively associated with MMSE score; however, sex; body mass index; left ventricular ejection fraction; levels of DHA, AA, and DGLA; DHA/AA ratio; brain natriuretic peptide; and presence of hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus, cerebrovascular disease, and history of current/previous smoking were statistically excluded.CONCLUSIONS: Serum EPA concentration is associated with cognitive function in patients with CAD, suggesting that a low serum EPA level is a risk factor for cognitive impairment independent of cardiac function, including left ventricular ejection fraction. This correlation potentially lends further support to a role of dietary n-3 PUFAs in preventing the cognitive decline in CAD patients.

(要約) Ghrelin is a novel growth hormone (GH)-releasing peptide originally isolated from the stomach. Recently, we have shown that ghrelin suppresses cardiac sympathetic activity and prevents early left ventricular remodeling in rats with myocardial infarction. In the present study, we evaluated the effect of ghrelin on autonomic nerve activity in healthy human subjects. An intravenous bolus of human synthetic ghrelin (10g/kg) was administered to 10 healthy men (mean age, 33 years). Holter monitoring assessment was performed before and during 2h after the ghrelin therapy. The standard deviation of normal RR intervals (SDNN), square root of the mean of the sum of the squares of differences between adjacent RR intervals (rMSSD), high-frequency power (HF), and low-frequency power (LF) were analyzed. Blood samples were also obtained before and after the therapy. A single administration of ghrelin decreased both heart rate and blood pressure. Interestingly, ghrelin significantly decreased the LF and LF/HF ratio of heart rate variability and increased the SDNN, rMSSD, and HF. Ghrelin also elicited a marked increase in circulating GH, but not insulin-like growth factor-1. These data suggest that ghrelin might suppress cardiac sympathetic nerve activity and stimulate cardiac parasympathetic nerve activity.

(要約) Telmisartan has unique pleiotropic effects in addition to renin-angiotensin system (RAS)-inhibition effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of telmisartan on the coronary plaque component and local inflammatory cytokines. A total of 50 patients with hypertension were randomized to 2 groups: the telmisartan group (additional treatment with telmisartan 80mg/day, n=25) or the control group (additional treatment with other anti-hypertensive drugs except RAS blockers, n=25) for 6 months. Tissue characteristics of target coronary plaque were analyzed using integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS) before and after treatment. Plasma levels of inflammatory cytokines sampled in the coronary sinus (CS) and peripheral vein were also measured. Significant increases in fibrous volume (51.2±10.4 to 58.3±7.7%, P=0.03) and reductions in lipid volume (38.4±12.4 to 32.8±9.7%, P=0.03) were observed on IB in the telmisartan group, while there were no significant changes in the plaque component in the control group. CS levels of inflammatory cytokines (matrix metalloproteinase [MMP]3, tumor necrosis factor-, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and MMP9) were lower after than before treatment in the only telmisartan group (7.7±6.1 to 5.5±4.9ng/ml, 3.1±1.9 to 2.3±2.0pg/ml, 5.6±6.0 to 2.2±2.4mg/L, 36.1±39.3 to 19.9±27.5ng/ml, P=0.02, P=0.03, P=0.04, P=0.07, respectively). Decreased local inflammatory response and plaque stabilization on IB imaging were observed after 6 months of telmisartan treatment. These findings might be associated with local anti-inflammatory and anti-arteriosclerotic effects of telmisartan.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) levels have been found to play an important role in the progression of atherosclerosis. However, methods for effectively reducing oxLDL levels have not been established. Comprehensive cardiac rehabilitation (CR) with exercise training prevents the progression of atherosclerosis, and might reduce oxLDL levels.MethodsandResults:We measured the serum levels of malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL), a marker of oxLDL, in 136 patients who were enrolled in a 6-month CR program. Peak oxygen consumption (VO2) and MDA-LDL levels were analyzed, before and 6 months after enrolment. In total, 67 patients completed the CR program (CR group) and 69 patients failed to complete the program (non-CR group). Peak VO2increased significantly in the CR group (P<0.01). The levels of MDA-LDL decreased significantly in the CR group (P<0.01) but not in the non-CR group. VO2(peak VO2after CR-peak VO2before CR) was negatively associated with MDA-LDL (MDA-LDL after CR-MDA-LDL before CR) (R(2)=0.11, P=0.01). Multiple regression analysis showed that continuing CR was an independent determining factor for lowering MDA-LDL levels.CONCLUSIONS: CR decreases oxLDL levels in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, CR may prevent cardiovascular events through an antioxidative effect. (Circ J 2014; 78: 2682-2687).

(要約) The fractional flow reserve (FFR) is considered to be a reliable index for the assessment of clinically relevant coronary artery stenosis. However, mismatch in assessing the severity of coronary stenosis between coronary angiography and the FFR has been pointed out. The cardiovascular intervention therapeutics (CVIT)-DEFER registry is a prospective multicenter registry study that has enrolled 3,228 consecutive patients among 3,804 patients with angiographically moderate coronary artery lesions in whom FFR analysis was clinically indicated. The demographic and angiographic parameters associated with an FFR 0.8 were analyzed, and the incidence of discrepancy between the angiographic severity of coronary stenosis and the FFR was assessed. Based on the visual assessment, 1,609 (42.9%) lesions were categorized as showing 50% stenosis, 1,882 lesions (50.2%) as 75% stenosis, and 257 lesions (6.9%) as 90% stenosis. Angiographic-FFR "mismatch," which was defined as visual stenosis 75% with FFR >0.80, was found in 43.4% of lesions, while reverse angiographic mismatch (visual stenosis <75% with FFR 0.8) was found in 23.2%. The independent predictors for "angiographic-FFR mismatch" were the presence of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) history, one-vessel disease, non-left anterior descending artery (LAD) location, non-diffuse lesion, non-ostial lesion, and non-tandem lesion. Conversely, "reverse angiographic mismatch" was independently associated with the multivessel disease, LAD location, and diffuse lesion. The FFR is not only influenced by luminal stenosis but also by coronary artery morphology and the amount of jeopardized myocardium. Angiographic-FFR mismatch is frequent in patients with moderate coronary stenosis, which suggests the clinical importance of using physiological assessment to guide PCI.

(要約) Increasing evidence indicates that inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is produced abundantly in local inflammatory lesions while C-reactive protein (CRP) is produced mainly in the liver. In this study, we investigated whether a local level of PTX3 might be a sensitive marker for the local inflammation of AF. Blood from the periphery and left atrial appendage (LAA) was sampled from 23 patients with AF undergoing pulmonary vein isolation, and from 10 control subjects with Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. We measured peripheral and LAA plasma concentrations of CRP, interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-), and PTX3. Plasma PTX3 concentrations in both locations were higher in patients with AF than in control subjects. PTX3 concentrations were significantly higher in the LAA than the periphery in patients with AF (3.7 ± 1.4 vs 3.3 ± 1.2 ng/ml, P < 0.01), but not in control subjects (2.4 ± 0.5 vs 2.4 ± 0.5 ng/ml, not significant). Patients and controls showed no significant differences in CRP, IL-6, or TNF- concentrations between the periphery and LAA. Interestingly, there was a significant positive correlation between LAA plasma concentrations of PTX3 and left atrial volume (r = 0.55, P < 0.01). These data demonstrate that Local PTX3 production in the left atrium might reflect the local inflammation of AF.

We present a case of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) presumably caused by exacerbation of chronic inflammation of RA, in which an abrupt increase in serum triglyceride was seen on the day of onset of ACS but not during effort angina. This case suggests that RA patients with an abrupt increase in triglyceride need intensive care including anti-platelet and statin therapy for the prevention of coronary plaque rupture.<Learning objective: Triglyceride might be a sensitive biomarker of activated macrophages and plaque vulnerability in patients with RA.

(要約) Congenital long QT syndrome is a genetic disorder encompassing a family of mutations that can lead to aberrant ventricular electrical activity. We report on two brothers with long QT syndrome caused by compound mutations in the KCNH2 gene inherited from parents who had no prolonged QT interval on electrocardiography. The proband had syncope, and his elder brother suffered from ventricular fibrillation. Genetic testing revealed that both brothers had multiple mutations in the KCNH2 gene, including a missense mutation of C1474T (exon 6) as well as a frameshift/nonsense mutation, resulting from the insertion of 25 nucleotides, which caused an altered amino acid sequence beginning at codon 302 and a premature termination codon (i.e., TAG) at codon 339 (exon 4). Family genetic screening found that their father had the same frameshift mutation, and their mother and sister had the same missense mutation, in the KCNH2 gene. However, these other family members were asymptomatic, with normal QT intervals on electrocardiography. These results suggest that compound mutations in the KCNH2 gene inherited independently from the parents made the phenotypes of their sons more severe.

(要約) BACKGROUND: Augmentation index (AI) has been used as a clinical index of arterial stiffness and has been reported to be an independent predictor of cardiovascular events, but some investigators have reported that AI is not a useful marker to identify coronary artery disease (CAD) in elderly patients. The majority of CAD patients are elderly people, therefore the aim of this study was to examine whether AI is a useful marker to identify the risk of CAD.METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 120 patients (69±10 years of age; 83 male) who underwent cardiac catheterization for suspected CAD were enrolled. Invasive central blood pressure (BP) was measured using a fluid-filled catheter. Non-invasive AI was calculated by the SphygmoCor (AtCor Medical) system at the end of catheterization. Subjects consisted of 99 patients with CAD and 21 patients without CAD. There was no significant difference in AI between the CAD and the non-CAD groups (24±10 vs. 24±14%). Non-invasive systolic central BP was lower than the invasive systolic central BP (115±18 vs. 130±23 mmHg, P<0.001) in all patients. Non-invasive diastolic central BP was greater than the invasive diastolic central BP (67±10 vs. 63±10 mmHg, P<0.001).CONCLUSIONS: In elderly patients, AI may not be a useful marker to identify CAD (キーワード) Arterial stiffness / Augmentation index / Central blood pressure / Coronary artery disease (徳島大学機関リポジトリ) ● Metadata: 106070 (出版サイトへのリンク) ● Publication site (DOI): 10.1253/circj.CJ-13-1422 (文献検索サイトへのリンク) ● PubMed @ National Institutes of Health, US National Library of Medicine (PMID): 24562676 ● CiNii @ 国立情報学研究所 (CRID): 1390001205107150592 ● Summary page in Scopus @ Elsevier: 2-s2.0-84899659435 (徳島大学機関リポジトリ: 106070, DOI: 10.1253/circj.CJ-13-1422, PubMed: 24562676, CiNii: 1390001205107150592, Elsevier: Scopus)

(要約) Acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) is mainly caused by deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and sometimes leads to a fatal outcome. Few cases of sport-related lower extremity DVT, involving direct external trauma, have been reported. A 58-year-old man, without any risk factors for thromboembolism suffered acute PTE from DVT after playing tennis. A detailed history revealed that he had hit his popliteal vein with each swing of his tennis racket and the site of the trauma, at popliteal fossa, was exactly the same as the site of the DVT formation. Therefore, the cause of DVT was suspected to be the repeated trauma to the popliteal vein. The repeated external trauma to the popliteal vein may have caused vascular endothelial damage, leading to DVT.

Kishimoto, Kenji Kangawa and Masataka Sata : Ghrelin protects the heart against ischemia-induced arrhythmias by preserving connexin-43 protein., Heart and Vessels, Vol.28, No.6, 795-801, 2013. (要約) Vagal nerve stimulation has been postulated to confer an antifibrillatory effect. We studied whether ghrelin administration would exert an antiarrhythmic effect via modulation of autonomic nerve activity in rats after acute myocardial ischemia (MI). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 30 min of ischemia following ligation of the left coronary artery. Animals were then randomized to receive either ghrelin (n = 26) or saline (n = 26) during the period of coronary ligation. Power spectral analysis of heart-rate variability revealed that the administration of ghrelin increased the high-frequency (HF) power and decreased the low-frequency (LF)/HF ratio. Ventricular tachyarrhythmias were less frequent in rats after MI who received ghrelin in comparison with rats that received saline. Immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry revealed that rats given saline alone during MI exhibited a marked reduction in phosphorylated connexin-43 within the left ventricle, whereas those that received ghrelin displayed only minor reductions in comparison with sham-operated rats. These effects of ghrelin were diminished by the coadministration of atropine or the blockade of vagal afferents. These data demonstrate that the beneficial effect of ghrelin might be mediated by modulation of cardiac autonomic nerve activity.

(要約) Antiplatelet therapy could prevent stent thrombosis, but may be associated with an increased risk of bleeding. Recent studies have revealed that bleeding complications are relatively frequent in patients with acute coronary syndromes. Our aim was to describe the current status of antiplatelet therapy for Japanese patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The Japan AMI (J-AMI) registry is a prospective observational study that has enrolled 2,030 consecutive patients with stent thrombosis elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) admitted to 213 participating Japanese institutions. Current antiplatelet therapy for STEMI was assessed, and the occurrence of bleeding complications (based on GUSTO bleeding criteria) and stent thrombosis was also evaluated. Additionally, the clinical course after bleeding episodes was investigated. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was done in 97.2 % of the patients, using a drug-eluting stent in 30 % and a bare metal stent in 63 % of PCI cases. A 300-mg loading dose of clopidogrel followed by its administration at 75 mg/day with aspirin was the current standard treatment for Japanese STEMI patients. In-hospital bleeding complications occurred in 1.9 %, especially in patients with severe clinical features or a history of cerebrovascular disease. Moderate to severe bleeding complications were associated with 10 deaths. The in-hospital stent thrombosis (ST) rate was 1.47 %, and loading with clopidogrel prior to PCI was significantly less frequent in patients who developed ST (P < 0.001). In conclusion, the J-AMI registry revealed that severe symptoms of STEMI increased the risk of bleeding, while delay of clopidogrel loading was associated with ST. These findings suggest the need for treatment based on risk stratification to improve the balance between the beneficial and adverse effects of antiplatelet therapy in Japanese STEMI patients.

(要約) A 67-year-old woman with asthma visited our hospital with increasing dyspnea and new-onset paresthesia and purpura in her legs. Physical examination showed a wheeze, pretibial edema, and surrounding purpura. Chest X-rays showed cardiac decompensation and an electrocardiogram revealed a new ST-T change. Laboratory data showed leukocytosis, hypereosinophilia (10,450/μL), troponin T(+), elevated BNP, and markedly elevated eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) (> 150 ng/mL). Echocardiography revealed diffuse left ventricular hypokinesis (ejection fraction 30%) with increased wall thickness. Coronary angiography was normal. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging implied diffuse myocardial edema and subendocardial late gadolinium enhancement. Skin biopsy of purpura showed superfi cial perivascular dermatitis with remarkable eosinophilic infiltrations. No evidence of drug allergies, parasitic infection, or myeloproliferative disorder was detected. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of eosinophilic myocarditis due to Churg-Strauss syndrome was considered. She was administered prednisolone at a dose of 1 mg/kg, cyclophosphamide, and diuretics. Several markers of eosinophilic myocarditis and heart failure gradually improved, including ECP. She was discharged 30 days later with no cardiac event. Eosinophilic myocarditis is characterized by predominantly eosinophilic infi ltration. Eosinophilic granule proteins, such as ECP and major basic protein, play important roles in the pathogenesis of eosinophilic myocarditis. We experienced a rare case of eosinophilic myocarditis due to Churg-Strauss syndrome. Markedly elevated ECP played an important role in the early diagnosis and subsequent reduction in ECP served as a marker of monitoring. In an asthmatic patient with dyspnea, hypereosinophilia, and vasculitis, Churg-Strauss syndrome with eosinophilic myocarditis should be considered.

(要約) A basket-shaped microsnare has various uses such as the pull through technique during coronary intervention to chronic total occlusion (CTO). A 79-year-old man underwent angioplasty for the femoral artery occlusion. We performed a controlled antegrade and retrograde tracking (CART) with dilatation of a balloon on the antegrade guidewire. The retrograde guidewire partly ran in the true lumen but could not pass through the CTO lesion because of inadequate CART. Eventually, we successfully gripped the top of the retrograde guidewire in the CTO lesion using the basket-shaped microsnare (Soutenir(®)). The microsnare may be useful for bidirectional approach in peripheral CTO lesions.

(要約) The door-to-balloon time and total ischemic time are important predictors of the outcome in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) receiving primary angioplasty, but the current situation in Japan is unknown. The Japan Acute Myocardial Infarction registry is a prospective observational study of 2,030 consecutive STEMI patients admitted to 213 Japanese institutions. The time from symptom onset to hospital arrival, door-to-balloon time, and in-hospital outcome were assessed. Data were compared between patients treated during regular hours or after hours. Percutaneous coronary angioplasty was done in 97.2 % of the patients, using drug-eluting stents in 30 % and bare metal stents in 63 % of the treated cases. The median symptom onset-to-door time (25th and 75th percentiles) was 135 min (64305 min), median door-to-balloon time was 42 min (2866 min), and mean procedural time was 98 ± 51 min. The on-call catheterization team performed 48.5 % of the procedures. There was no significant difference of door-to-balloon time between the patients treated after hours and those treated during regular hours. The cardiac mortality rate was 3.2 %, and it increased with longer door-to-balloon times (P = 0.03). The relationship between total ischemic time and cardiac mortality showed 2 peaks, with a trough at 5 h. Median door-to-balloon time was <90 min and was not longer in after hours cases. These findings suggest that Japanese institutions can provide primary angioplasty within an acceptable time frame.

(要約) Growing evidence suggests that epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) may contribute to the development of coronary artery disease (CAD). In this study, we explored gender disparities in EAT volume (EATV) and its impact on coronary atherosclerosis. The study population consisted of 90 consecutive subjects (age: 63 ± 12 years; men: 47, women: 43) who underwent 256-slice multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) coronary angiography. EATV was measured as the sum of cross-sectional epicardial fat area on CT images, from the lower surface of the left pulmonary artery origin to the apex. Subjects were segregated into the CAD group (coronary luminal narrowing > 50%) and non-CAD group. EATV/body surface area (BSA) was higher among men in the CAD group than in the non-CAD group (62 ± 13 vs. 33 ± 10 cm3/m2, p < 0.0001), but did not differ significantly among women in the 2 groups (49 ± 18 vs. 42 ± 9 cm3/m2, not significant). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that EATV/BSA was the single predictor for >50% coronary luminal narrowing in men (p < 0.0001). Predictors excluded were age, body mass index, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hyperlipidemia. Increased EATV is strongly associated with coronary atherosclerosis in men.

(要約) Accurate assessment of left ventricular (LV) function in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) remains difficult, mainly because of the beat-to-beat variability of many echocardiographic parameters. The aim of this study was to assess the hypothesis that LV function can be estimated from an index-beat echocardiographic assessment in patients with AF using myocardial strain and strain rate. A prospective study was conducted to assess 25 patients with AF (mean age, 66 ± 10 years). Peak systolic longitudinal strain (LS) and peak diastolic longitudinal strain rate (dSR) were measured using two different methods: (1) mean LS and dSR, the averages of instantaneous LS and dSR over 10 sec, and (2) index-beat LS and dSR, calculated when the ratio of the preceding (RR1) to the pre-preceding (RR2) interval was 1 (range, 0.96-1.04). These variables were compared with simultaneously measured LV pressure parameters using Millar catheters. There was a positive linear relationship between mean LS and index-beat LS at RR1/RR2 = 1 (r = 0.94, P < .001) and a positive linear relationship between mean dSR and index-beat dSR (r = 0.69, P < .001). Index-beat LS was correlated with the maximal positive derivative of LV pressure (peak +dP/dt) (r = -0.73, P < .001). Index-beat dSR was correlated with the time constant of isovolumic LV pressure decay (τ) (r = -0.63, P < .001). To investigate the independent predictors of τ, a stepwise multilinear regression analysis showed that index-beat dSR was the best predictor of τ. Index-beat parameters accurately reflect the mean values of parameters in patients with AF. These noninvasively obtained index-beat parameters are useful to assess surrogate LV function even in patients with AF.

Blood cultures were negative and intravenous empiric antibiotic therapy was begun. However, fever lasted for 7 days and follow-up echocardiography revealed a newly emerged perivalvular abscess. The patient eventually underwent an urgent aortic root replacement that confirmed the echocardiographic findings.

(要約) Background : The carotid plaque vulnerability is related to myocardial and cerebral infarction.We intended to develop an imaging system which enables to visualize tissue characteristics in thecarotid plaques based on ultrasound integrated backscatter(IB). And to test its clinical efficacy,effect of the statin therapy on the plaques was evaluated with our software. Methods and Results :Carotid ultrasound examination was performed and ultrasonographic RAW data of the plaqueswere obtained from8patients undergoing carotid artery endarterectomy. Tissue characteristicsin the plaques of resected examples were compared with preoperative ultrasonic images and thetissue IB values corresponding to the specimens were determined for developing our imaging system.Using this system, Color-coded maps of plaques in the three patients were constructed beforeand after lipid lowing therapy. We could demonstrate that lipid fraction in each plaque decreasedand fibrous or calcification fraction increased in the follow-up study. Conclusions : Changes inhistology of carotid plaques by statin could visualized with our imaging system. This techniquemay become a useful tool for the management of atherosclerosis.

(要約) Cilnidipine, an L/N-type calcium channel blocker (CCB), has been reported to have more beneficial effects on proteinuria progression in hypertensive patients than amlodipine, an L-type CCB. The N-type calcium channel blockade that inhibits renal sympathetic nerve activity might reduce glomerular hypertension by facilitating vasodilation of the efferent arterioles. However, the precise mechanism of the renoprotective effect of cilnidipine remains unknown. Because cilnidipine exerted significantly higher antioxidant activity than amlodipine in cultured human mesangial cells, we hypothesized that cilnidipine might exert a renoprotective effect by suppressing oxidative stress. A total of 35 hypertensive patients receiving a renin-angiotensin system inhibitor were randomly assigned to a cilnidipine (n=18; 10 mg per day cilnidipine titrated to 20 mg per day) or amlodipine (n=17; 5 mg per day amlodipine titrated to 10 mg per day) group; the target blood pressure (BP) was set at 130/85 mmHg. After 6 months of treatment, systolic and diastolic BPs were significantly reduced in both of the groups, without any significant difference between the groups. The urinary albumin, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (OHdG) and liver-type fatty-acid-binding protein (L-FABP) to creatinine ratios significantly decreased in the cilnidipine group (P<0.05) compared with those in the amlodipine group. The reductions in urinary albumin, 8-OHdG and L-FABP were not correlated with the change in systolic BP. In conclusion, cilnidipine, but not amlodipine, ameliorated urinary albumin excretion and decreased urinary 8-OHdG and L-FABP in the hypertensive patients. Cilnidipine probably exerts a greater renoprotective effect through its antioxidative properties.Hypertension Research advance online publication, 5 July 2012; doi:10.1038/hr.2012.96.

(要約) Late stent thrombosis (LST) after sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation has been demonstrated previously. Although incomplete neointimal coverage after SES implantation has been reported, local long-term hypercoagulability remains unknown. We evaluated the local persistent coagulative response in eighty-three consecutive patients with stable angina, treated with either SES (n=51) or BMS (n=32) implantation for isolated de novo left anterior descending (LAD) stenosis. We measured prothrombin fragment F1+2 (frF1+2) and D-dimer levels sampled in the coronary sinus (CS) and sinus of Valsalva (V). The transcardiac gradient (Δ) was defined as the CS level minus V level. The ΔfrF1 + 2 and ΔD-dimer were significantly greater in the SES group than in the BMS group (0.50 ± 0.35 vs -0.14 ± 0.15 nmol/l, p=0.009 and 0.24 ± 0.21 vs -0.05 ± 0.16 μg/ml, p=0.041, respectively). We selected the hypocoagulative [ΔfrF1 + 2<0.15 (mean value-SD) nmol/l, n=21] and hypercoagulative [ΔfrF1 + 2>0.85 (mean value+SD) nmol/l, n=14] groups out of the SES patients. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of local hypercoagulability. Total SES length was the only independent predictor of local hypercoagulability. There was a significant positive correlation between the ΔfrF1 + 2 and total stent length in the SES group (r=0.57, p<0.05). An increased local coagulative response was observed in the convalescent phase after SES implantation as compared to BMS. Careful long-term follow-up of patients after longer SES implantation is recommended in order to avoid LST.

(要約) Inflammation is a critical contributing factor to the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) is produced abundantly in atherosclerotic lesions while C-reactive protein (CRP) is mainly produced in the liver. In this study, we investigated whether plasma levels of PTX3 might be a sensitive marker both for the severity of coronary artery disease and vulnerable plaques. Next, we determined whether assays for inflammatory molecules can be used to monitor the therapeutic effects of telmisartan on stabilization of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques. We measured PTX3 concentrations in the peripheral and coronary sinus plasma of 40 patients with angina pectoris (AP) and 20 control subjects. Next, in 28 patients with AP, we determined the correlation between levels of inflammatory molecules and the computed tomography (CT) density of plaques as a quantitative index of plaque vulnerability. There was no significant difference in peripheral plasma PTX3 concentrations between patients with AP and control subjects, while coronary sinus plasma PTX3 concentrations were significantly higher in AP patients than control subjects. The concentrations of PTX3 in coronary sinus and peripheral plasma correlated with Gensini scores as an index of severity of coronary atherosclerosis. Interestingly, there was a significantly negative correlation between plasma PTX3 concentrations and CT density (r=-0.67, p<0.01). On the other hand, CT density did not correlate with the peripheral plasma concentrations of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) or high-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP). Furthermore, telmisartan treatment for 6 months decreased plasma concentrations of PTX3 but not those of MCP-1 or hsCRP in 12 patients with essential hypertension. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that changes in PTX3 levels were independent of blood pressure changes. PTX3 is likely more specific than hsCRP as an indicator of coronary plaque vulnerability that could lead to plaque rupture.

(要約) A 73-year-old woman suffering from anterior thoracic pain on exertion presented to our hospital. We performed coronary angiography and noted three stenotic legions in each coronary artery. For each angiographic finding, we implanted a bare metal stent (BMS), sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) into the right coronary artery, left anterior descending and left circumflex coronary arteries, respectively. Nine months later, she died of lung disease, and we could compare the histopathological findings among the three coronary stents. In the drug-eluting stents, very thin intima, infiltration of inflammatory cells, and fibrin deposition were observed, while thick intima and no inflammatory findings were observed in the BMS. Fibrin deposition was more marked in the PES than in the SES. This report shows marked differences in the subsequent pathological course among three stents in the same patient.

(要約) We report a case of a 78-year-old woman with cardiac sarcoidosis with a history of syncope and palpitation. Further assessment with echocardiography, gadolinium-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and histology led to a diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis. As the patient suffered from ventricular tachycardia (VT) despite active corticosteroid therapy, an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) was positioned. She was also administered a beta blocker, but an electrical storm appeared every several days requiring ICD therapy. The drug-refractory VT was finally controlled with a catheter ablation session, during which we could detect the VT focus in the right ventricular outflow tract next to the aneurysm by using an electroanatomic mapping system (CARTO). Referring to echocardiographic and CMR images proved very useful in detecting the aneurysm using the CARTO system.

(要約) Most cases of chronic stenosis or occlusive lesions of the pulmonary arteries are attributed to thromboembolism, and pulmonary arteritis is extremely rare as the primary cause of these entities. We report a case of pulmonary stenosis and occlusion caused by Takayasu arteritis. The patient was a 54-year-old woman who presented with dyspnea. Total occlusion of the left pulmonary artery and significant stenosis of the right pulmonary artery caused by Takayasu arteritis were confirmed by various imaging modalities including pulmonary angiography, (18)fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and real-time three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography. After 6 weeks of steroid therapy, follow-up imaging studies showed that the stenotic lesion had resolved.

(要約) The aim of the present study was to evaluate the factors that modulate the protective action of statins on cardiorenal function, regardless of the lipid-lowering effect. To treat abnormal serum lipid profiles, low-dose pitavastatin (1.0 mg/day) was administered to 65 hyperlipidemic patients. The exclusion criteria included left ventricular ejection fraction <40% and apparent renal disease. Age- and gender-matched patients with hyperlipidemia (n = 40) served as the controls. After 12 to 16 weeks of pitavastatin treatment, pitavastatin had decreased low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (from 143.5 ± 31.4 to 98.2 ± 19.4 mg/dl, p <0.01), triglycerides (from 157.7 ± 57.2 to 140.5 ± 60.7 mg/dl, p <0.01), E/e' (from 10.8 ± 6.2 to 9.0 ± 4.5, p <0.05), a parameter of left ventricular diastolic function, and albuminuria (from 47.6 ± 55.9 to 28.5 ± 40.0 mg/g creatinine, p <0.01). Furthermore, pitavastatin decreased serum transforming growth factor-1 (from 709 ± 242 to 550 ± 299 pg/ml, p <0.01), urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (from 6.6 ± 4.1 to 5.0 ± 3.1 g/g creatinine, p <0.01), an oxidative stress marker, and increased urinary nitrate and nitrite (from 22.5 ± 14.6 to 29.4 ± 27.6 nmol/g creatinine, p <0.05). No such changes were observed in the controls. Multiple regression analysis in the pitavastatin group revealed the effect of pitavastatin on cardiorenal function was associated with suppression of oxidative stress, but not on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol reduction. In conclusion, pitavastatin decreases E/e' and albuminuria, which is associated with suppression of oxidative stress.

(要約) Automated function imaging (AFI) is a recently developed method of calculating the longitudinal peak systolic strains (LS) of the regional left ventricular (LV) wall using speckle tracking echocardiography and displaying them on a single bull's-eye map. The feasibility of AFI in patients with regional LV wall motion abnormalities caused by myocardial infarction (MI) was evaluated by comparison with visual assessment and myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Segmental LS was measured by AFI in 60 patients with MI (67 ± 11 years) and 58 controls (71 ± 9 years). Wall thickening (WT) was measured by SPECT in 20 patients with MI. There was a strong positive linear relationship between the wall motion score index by expert visual assessment and global LS. The receiver-operating characteristic analysis revealed the best cutoff value of 11% < LS to identify hypokinetic segments. The overall accuracy of wall motion scoring by LS in the 2,006 segments was 96.8% (κ = 0.90) compared with visual assessment. The correlation coefficient between LS and WT was R² = 0.65 in the 340 segments. Assessment of LV regional asynergy by AFI showed good agreement with visual and SPECT assessments. AFI is clinically useful for quantitative assessment of LV regional wall motion abnormalities.

(要約) Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a frequent complication in patients with systemic sclerosis. Bosentan is used in patients with symptomatic PAH; however, it has not been established whether or not bosentan ameliorates the progression of PAH in patients with no PAH-related symptoms. We present a case of systemic sclerosis with no PAH-related symptoms in which bosentan ameliorated exercise-induced PAH evaluated by 6-minute walk stress echocardiography, brachial flow-mediated dilation, and skin temperature of hands and feet. The results suggest that administration of bosentan in patients with early-stage PAH ameliorates pulmonary arterial vasodilatation through improvement of endothelial function.

(要約) Congenital ventricular diverticulum (CVD) in adults is a rare cardiac malformation, which includes fibrous type congenital ventricular aneurysm (CVA). CVA is often clinically asymptomatic and shows no abnormality in the electrocardiogram or chest X-ray. However, some cases of sudden death resulting from ventricular tachycardia, cardiac embolism or ventricular rupture have been reported. Therefore, physicians should perform further cardiac imaging studies to detect a CVA if ventricular arrhythmia originating from the left ventricle is observed. Here, we report two successfully followed cases of CVA which were diagnosed from premature ventricular contractions.

(要約) AIM: Ezetimibe, an inhibitor of Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 protein, has been shown to reduce the intestinal absorption of cholesterol. We investigated whether it also has beneficial effects on metabolic disorder and/or renal insufficiency in patients with hypercholesterolemia. METHODS: Ezetimibe was administered to 38 Japanese patients with hypercholesterolemia to obtain appropriate low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-chol) levels. Age- and sex-matched patients with hypercholesterolemia (n=38) were the controls. We evaluated the effects of ezetimibe before and 4 to 8 weeks after ezetimibe treatment. RESULTS: Ezetimibe significantly decreased LDL-chol levels and metabolic syndrome-related factors, including body weight, waist circumference, blood pressure; homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), and urinary albumin excretion, were significantly reduced. In addition, it decreased the level of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, the urinary excretion of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, a parameter of oxidative stress, and increased the urinary excretion of nitrate and nitrite (NOx). In the controls we observed no such changes. Excepting the decrease in the serum TNF-alpha level, the effects of ezetimibe were not correlated with decreased LDL-chol levels. CONCLUSION: Ezetimibe ameliorated the status of metabolic syndrome and microalbuminuria, reduced inflammation and oxidative stress, and increased nitric oxide bioavailability in a LDL-chol reduction-dependent and -independent manner.

Cardiovascular Imaging, Vol.2, No.10, 1147-1156, 2009. (要約) We evaluated the usefulness of the ratio of the early diastolic transmitral flow velocity (E) to the mitral annular velocity (e') calculated from simultaneously recorded E and e' in atrial fibrillation (AF). The ratio of the E to the e' (E/e') has been reported as a useful index even in AF patients. However, E and e' were measured during different beats in the previous studies. Fifty-six AF patients with preserved systolic function (mean age 66 +/- 11 years) underwent routine echocardiographic study. The E/e' was calculated from the E and e' simultaneously recorded by the dual Doppler echocardiography. A single-beat E/e' was calculated from simultaneously recorded E and e' when the preceding RR interval/pre-preceding RR interval = 1. Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels were also examined. Twenty-one patients underwent simultaneous pulmonary artery catheterization. The single-beat lateral E/e' correlated with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) (r = 0.74, p < 0.001). The single-beat lateral E/e' of >or=11 could predict elevated PCWP (>or=15 mm Hg) with a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 90%. The single-beat lateral E/e' also correlated well with the log BNP concentration. The single-beat lateral E/e' of >or=9.2 predicted a plasma BNP level of >or=200 pg/ml with 88% sensitivity and 84% specificity. The single-beat lateral E/e' correlated with plasma BNP level and PCWP in AF patients with preserved systolic function. In addition, the single-beat lateral E/e' (>or=11) was a good predictor of elevated PCWP (>or=15 mm Hg). Dual Doppler echocardiography offers an advantage of providing the single-beat lateral E/e' correctly even in AF patients, for the evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function.

(要約) A 57-year-old female patient, who was initially suspected to have subarachnoid hemorrhage, was admitted to our hospital. She experienced severe dyspnea and chest pain owing to pneumonia on the fourth admission day. Electrocardiography showed ST-segment elevation in leads V(2) through V(5), and echocardiography revealed hypokinetic left ventricular wall motion. No stenosis was found in the coronary arteries by urgent coronary angiography. However, left ventriculography revealed that the basal and apical areas were hyperkinetic and the mid portion was akinetic. After a month, left ventricular wall motion was improved and coronary artery spasm provocation tests were negative. Although the clinical course of this patient was similar to that of neurogenic myocardial stunning, the shape of her left ventricle was not typical.

(要約) Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) frequently occurs in patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome. The purpose of this study was to analyze the atrial electrophysiologic abnormalities and vulnerability to develop atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with WPW syndrome but with no previous history of PAF. We investigated atrial electrophysiologic abnormalities and vulnerability to AF in patients with WPW syndrome but without PAF. An electrophysiologic study was performed in 28 patients with WPW syndrome, 23 with atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) and 25 with other arrhythmias (control), all of whom had no history of PAF. The following atrial excitability parameters were assessed: effective refractory period (ERP), spontaneous or paced (A1) and extrastimulated (A2) atrial electrogram widths, percent maximum atrial fragmentation (%MAF; A2/A1 x 100), wavelength index (WLI; ERP/A2), and inducibility of AF. The ERP tended to be shorter in patients with WPW syndrome and in those with AVNRT than in the control group. The %MAF increased (154 +/- 33 vs. 137 +/- 23%, p < 0.05) and WLI decreased (2.7 +/- 0.8 vs. 3.4 +/- 1.0, p < 0.05) significantly in patients with WPW syndrome compared with the control group; however, these parameters in patients with AVNRT showed intermediate values. Atrial fibrillation was more inducible in patients with WPW syndrome (4/28 [14.3%]) than in those with AVNRT (4.3% [1/23]) and the control group (0/25 [0%]). With respect to patients with WPW syndrome and with and without inducible AF, the %MAF increased (195 +/- 23 vs. 148 +/- 30%, p < 0.01) and the WLI decreased (2.2 +/- 0.3 vs. 2.9 +/- 0.9, p < 0.05) in subjects with inducible AF. Atrial electrophysiologic abnormalities, especially atrial conduction delays, are more prominent in patients with WPW syndrome, even if they had no previous history of PAF. These abnormalities may play an important role in determining the vulnerability to AF.

(要約) Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) has been utilized to evaluate left ventricular myocardial dysfunction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM); however, no clear explanation for the abnormality of TDI variables has been forthcoming. Peak negative myocardial velocity gradient (MVG) derived from TDI may correlate with a disorder of fatty acid metabolism in patients with HCM. Tissue Doppler imaging and 123I-beta-methyl iodophenyl pentadecanoic acid (123I-BMIPP) myocardial scintigraphy were performed in 15 patients with asymmetric septal hypertrophy (mean age 47 +/- 18 years) and in 12 healthy controls (mean age 43 +/- 10 years). In early 123I-BMIPP images, accumulation defects were observed in the ventricular septum in 12 patients and in the posterior wall in 8 patients with HCM. Peak negative MVG in the ventricular septum (1.1 +/- 0.5 vs. 2.8 +/- 0.5, p < 0.0001) and posterior wall (5.2 +/- 1.4 vs. 6.7 +/- 0.8, p < 0.01 ) was significantly lower in the HCM group than in the controls; also, these parameters were significantly lower in patients with than in those without a defect in the region in question. The peak negative MVG in the ventricular septum and posterior wall correlated inversely with the washout rate in all subjects. Peak negative MVG according to TDI is related to disorder of fatty acid metabolism in the regional left ventricular myocardium of patients with HCM.

(要約) Although atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia, especially in elderly men, little is known about age related changes in atrial electrophysiological properties or gender differences. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of aging on vulnerability to atrial fibrillation and assessed gender differences in those age related changes. An electrophysiological study was performed on 73 patients with no history of atrial fibrillation, structural heart disease, or conditions with potential effects on cardiac hemodynamic or electrophysiological function, including 25 women (mean age 49 +/- 18 years; range 12-84 years). The following atrial excitability parameters were assessed: spontaneous or paced (A1) and extrastimulated (A2) atrial electrogram widths, percent maximum atrial fragmentation (A2/A1 x 100), effective refractory period, wavelength index (effective refractory period/A2), and inducibility of atrial fibrillation. There were no significant differences in percent maximum atrial fragmentation (143 +/- 28 vs 142 +/- 35%), effective refractory period (241 +/- 39 vs 238 +/- 50 ms), wavelength index (2.9 +/- 0.8 vs 3.1 +/- 0.9), induction of atrial fibrillation (10 [21%] vs 7 [28%]), or age (50 +/- 17 vs 49 +/- 20 years) between men and women. Age was not statistically different between those patients with and without induction of atrial fibrillation in men (48 +/- 14 vs 50 +/- 18 years) and women (48 +/- 18 vs 49 +/- 21 years). Percent maximum atrial fragmentation and effective refractory period were directly correlated with age in men (r = 0.35, P = 0.01; r = 0.46, P < 0.001, respectively) and women (r = 0.42, P = 0.04; r = 0.45, P = 0.02, respectively), though wavelength index did not correlate with age in men (r = -0.04) or women (r = -0.04) with no history of atrial fibrillation. Considering these findings, the authors conclude that the mechanism triggering atrial fibrillation may be different between older and younger patients with atrial fibrillation, because younger patients who have no marked substrate for atrial fibrillation may need many trigger beats to induce atrial fibrillation.

(要約) Although atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia, especially in the elderly, little is known about age-related changes in the electrophysiologic properties of the atrium. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of aging on atrial vulnerability to atrial fibrillation. An electrophysiologic study was performed in 45 patients with no history of atrial fibrillation, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, structural heart disease, or conditions with potential effects on cardiac hemodynamic or electrophysiologic function (15 females; mean age, 52 +/- 18 years; range, 14 to 84 years). The following atrial excitability parameters were assessed: spontaneous or paced (A1) and extrastimulated (A2) atrial electrogram widths, percent maximum atrial fragmentation (A2/A1 x 100), effective refractory period, wavelength index (ERP/A2), and inducibility of atrial fibrillation. Atrial fibrillation was induced in 9 patients. Percent maximum atrial fragmentation was greater (176 +/- 36 vs 137 +/- 26%, P < 0.001) and wavelength index was shorter (2.4 +/- 0.4 vs 3.2 +/- 0.9, P < 0.01) in the patients with than without inducible atrial fibrillation. However, age was similar in patients with and without inducible atrial fibrillation (47 +/- 11 vs 53 +/- 19 years, P = 0.36). Percent maximum atrial fragmentation and effective refractory period directly correlated with age (r = 0.32, P < 0.05 and r = 0.45, P < 0.001, respectively). On the other hand, wavelength index (3.1 +/- 0.9) did not correlate with age (r = -0.05, P = 0.77). This study suggests that the mechanism triggering atrial fibrillation may be very well different between older and younger patients with atrial fibrillation, because younger patients have no marked substrate for atrial fibrillation.

(要約) Transmitral flow velocity variables are powerful predictors of poor prognosis in patients with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction. However, these variables may not accurately reflect the severity of pulmonary congestion. This study was designed to determine whether the peak atrial systolic mitral annular motion velocity (MA-Aw) measured by pulsed Doppler tissue imaging can predict cardiac death or hospitalization for worsening heart failure in patients with LV systolic dysfunction. MA-Aw was recorded in 96 patients with LV systolic dysfunction who were followed up for 29 +/- 10 months. All patients underwent Doppler echocardiography on entry into the study, and cardiac catheterization was performed in 45 patients. Patients were divided into 3 groups on the basis of the ratio of early (E) to late (A) diastolic filling (E/A) of the transmitral flow velocity: group 1 (n=31; E/A < 1); group 2 (n=37; 1 < or = E/A < 2); and group 3 (n=28; E/A > or = 2). During follow-up, 36 patients (38%) died of cardiac causes and 34 (35%) were hospitalized for worsening heart failure. There were 2 cardiac deaths (6%) in group 1, 14 (39%) in group 2, and 20 (56%) in group 3. The MA-Aw correlated closely with the mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. Univariate Cox model analysis showed that MA-Aw < or = 5 cm/s was the most powerful predictor of cardiac death or hospitalization for worsening heart failure compared with clinical, hemodynamic, and the other echocardiographic variables. Furthermore, MA-Aw < or = 5 cm/s was clearly discernible as a good predictor of cardiac mortality on multivariate Cox model and as assessed by Kaplan-Meier method. The MA-Aw obtained by pulsed Doppler tissue imaging is a sensitive index of pulmonary congestion in patients with LV systolic dysfunction. It is a simple and noninvasive outcome measure and can be used to monitor treatment.

(要約) Left ventricular (LV) wall motion velocity during atrial systole is mediated by both transmitral flow and LV myocardial compliance at end-diastole. LV wall distensibility along the long- and short-axis during atrial systole and late diastolic LV filling may vary according to the remodeling of LV morphology. We measured LV wall motion velocities along the long and short axes using pulsed Doppler tissue imaging in 127 patients with hypertension to evaluate the relationship between the hemodynamic changes and LV morphology and to determine the role of both long- and short-axis function in late diastolic LV filling. Participants were classified into 3 groups according to LV dimension and end-diastolic wall thickness determined by M-mode echocardiography: group A (n = 62) without LV dilation or hypertrophy, group B (n = 55) with LV hypertrophy, and group C (n = 10) with LV dilation and systolic dysfunction. The time constant of the LV pressure decay during isovolumic diastole and the LV end-diastolic pressure were longest and greatest, respectively, in group C, compared with groups B and A. There were no significant differences in active left atrial emptying volume during atrial contraction determined by computerized echocardiographic 3-dimensional reconstruction among patient and control groups. The peak atrial systolic motion velocity of the LV posterior wall along the long axis was significantly lower in groups B and C, particularly in the latter group, than in group A. The peak atrial systolic motion velocity of the LV posterior wall along the short axis was greatest in group B and was lowest in group C compared with the other groups, respectively. The peak atrial systolic motion velocity of the LV posterior wall was greater along the long axis than the short axis in group A, but was less than the short axis in group B. In conclusion, the long- and short-axis function of the LV wall during atrial systole varies in patients with hypertension according to the severity of hemodynamic and morphologic abnormalities. The degree of LV wall expansion along the short axis is an important factor resulting from the atrial kick, and a determinant of its effectiveness.

(要約) This study was undertaken for the determination of the correlation between myocardial viability and regional systolic mitral annular motion velocity (MAV) response to dobutamine stress in patients with previous myocardial infarction (MI) with pulsed tissue Doppler scan imaging. The study included 45 patients (mean age, 65 +/- 12 years) with previous MI with 1 major coronary lesion and 30 healthy individuals (mean age, 61 +/- 14 years). 99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile scintigraphy was performed to divide the patients into 2 groups: the viability (+) group (n = 25) and the viability (-) group (n = 20). Dobutamine was infused (at 2, 5, 10, and 20 microg/kg/min), and the peak first and second systolic MAVs (Sw1 and Sw2, respectively) were measured at the level of the mitral annulus corresponding to the infarct regions in the MI group and to the 6 mitral annular sites in the control group. In addition, the left ventricular wall motion score index (WMSI) was determined with 2-dimensional echocardiography. At baseline, the WMSI was significantly greater and the mean Sw1 and Sw2 were significantly lower in both the viability (+) and (-) groups than in the control group, but there were no significant differences between the viability (+) and (-) groups. After dobutamine infusion, the WMSI improved only in the viability (+) group. The mean Sw1 and Sw2 increased significantly with 2 microg/kg/min and 5 microg/kg/min of dobutamine, respectively, in the viability (+) group. With an increase in Sw1 of 2.0 cm/s or more with 5 microg/kg/min of dobutamine, viable myocardium was detected, with a sensitivity of 92% and a specificity of 90%.

Tetsuzo Wakatsuki : Effects of angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist (candesartan) in preventing fatal ventricular arrhythmias in dogs during acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, Journal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, Vol.38, No.5, 729-736, 2001. (要約) Fatal arrhythmias may be prevented by long-term oral administration of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors or angiotensin II type 1 (AT 1 ) receptor antagonists. However, there have been no studies evaluating the electrophysiologic changes that occur with the acute administration of AT 1 receptor antagonists during acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of candesartan to prevent fatal arrhythmias during acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. The left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery was ligated for 10 min and then reperfused for 10 min in 45 adult mongrel dogs. Candesartan (1 mg/kg) or saline was administered intravenously 10 min before ligation of the LAD coronary artery (candesartan group [n = 20] and control group [n = 25], respectively). Changes in ventricular effective refractory period (ERP) and intramyocardial conduction time (ICT) in the risk area were compared during LAD occlusion and reperfusion. Ischemia-induced shortening of ERP was inhibited in the candesartan group compared with the control. There was a 4.7 +/- 5.8% increase in ERP in the candesartan group, compared with a 11.5 +/- 6.3% shortening in the control group (p < 0.01). Prolongation of ICT was inhibited in the candesartan group compared with the control group during both ischemia and reperfusion (maximal prolongation of ICT: 0.1 +/- 3.0% vs. 37.7 +/- 9.6%, respectively; p < 0.01). Incidence of ventricular fibrillation was lower in the candesartan group than in the control group (25% [5/20] vs. 72% [18/25], respectively; p < 0.01). Candesartan suppresses changes in ERP and ICT during acute myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, suggesting that candesartan can prevent the development of fatal arrhythmias.

(要約) The purpose of the present study was to examine the mechanisms of improvement in left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in hypertensive patients treated with cilnidipine, a new and unique calcium antagonist that has both L-type and N-type voltage-dependent calcium channel blocking actions, using pulsed Doppler echocardiography and pulsed tissue Doppler imaging. The study comprised 35 untreated patients with essential hypertension (19 men and 16 women; mean age 65+/-10 years). The peak early diastolic and atrial systolic transmitral flow velocities (E and A, respectively) and their ratio (E/A), and the peak early diastolic and atrial systolic motion velocities (Ew and Aw, respectively) of the LV posterior wall and their ratio (Ew/Aw) were determined in all patients before and after 1, 3 and 6 months on cilnidipine (10 mg/day). One month: Systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly decreased. E and E/A were significantly increased, whereas there were no significant changes in Ew and Ew/Aw. Three months: Ew and Ew/Aw were significantly increased compared to those before and 1 month after cilnidipine. Six months: E and E/A were significantly increased compared with before and 3 months after cilnidipine, and Ew and Ew/Aw were significantly increased compared with before cilnidipine. Moreover, the LV mass index was significantly decreased compared to that before cilnidipine. In summary, changes in LV diastolic performance in patients with essential hypertension following cilnidipine treatment were biphasic with an initial increase in early diastolic transmitral flow velocity and a later increase in early diastolic LV wall motion velocity. The initial and later changes can be related to an acute change in afterload and a later improvement in LV relaxation.

(要約) There is controversy concerning whether contract-ility in the nonhypertrophied region of the left ventricular (LV) wall is impaired or normal in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Global LV systolic function decreases with increases in afterload in this disease. This study was performed to identify abnormalities in regional LV contractility along the long and short axes in the setting of HCM with the use of angiotensin II (AT-II) stress pulsed tissue Doppler imaging (PTDI). Angiotensin II was administered intravenously to patients with asymmetric septal hypertrophy (HCM group, n = 21) and age-matched normal volunteers (N group, n = 12). We then measured the percent LV fractional shortening (%FS) and end-systolic circumferential LV wall stress by M-mode echocardiography, LV ejection fraction (LVEF) by 2-dimensional echocardiography, and time-velocity integral (TVI) of LV outflow velocity by pulsed Doppler echocardiography. The peak first and second systolic LV wall motion velocities along the long (L-Sw(1) and L-Sw(2)) and short (S-Sw(1) and S-Sw(2)) axes were measured in the LV posterior wall and ventricular septum with the use of PTDI. The end-systolic circumferential LV wall stress at baseline was significantly lower in the HCM group. The L-Sw(1) and L-Sw(2) for the posterior wall were significantly lower in the HCM group, but the S-Sw(1) and S-Sw(2) for the posterior wall and ventricular septum were similar in the two groups. The %FS, LVEF, TVI, and systolic PTDI variables along both axes for the posterior wall decreased significantly, and end-systolic circumferential LV wall stress increased significantly at AT-II doses of 0.005 or 0.010 microg/kg per minute in the HCM group. No significant changes were found in either group in the systolic PTDI variables (except for L-Sw(1)) for the ventricular septum with AT-II infusion. Contractility along the long and short axes of the nonhypertrophied LV wall is easily impaired with increases in afterload in patients with HCM, resulting in a decrease in global LV systolic function. We found AT-II stress PTDI to be a safe and useful technique for evaluating the regional LV systolic function in this disease.

(要約) Authors of recent studies have reported that there is a relationship between level of adhesion molecules and atherosclerosis. In an animal study it was demonstrated that there is an interaction between adhesion molecules and leukocytes in atherosclerotic tissue. To study the relationships between coronary-artery atherosclerosis and both differential blood-leukocyte count and concentrations of soluble adhesion molecules in patients with and without coronary artery disease (CAD). Our subjects were 168 patients who underwent diagnostic coronary angiography. Forty-eight patients had normal coronary angiograms (control group), and 120 patients had significant coronary-artery stenoses (diameter stenosis > 70%) in at least one major coronary-artery branch (CAD group). Total and differential blood-leukocyte counts, and concentrations of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) were assayed prior to angiography. Monocyte counts for patients in the CAD group were significantly greater than those for patients in the control group (366 +/- 99 versus 258 +/- 44/microl, P < 0.0001), as were the sICAM-1 concentrations (272 +/- 52 versus 203 +/- 24 ng/ml, P < 0.0001). The mean concentrations of sVCAM-1 in members of the two groups were the same (671 +/- 138 versus 668 +/- 97 ng/ml, P=0.4). There was a higher incidence of significant coronary-artery stenosis among patients with both a high monocyte count and a high concentration of sICAM-1 (> or = mean + SD) than there was among patients with a low monocyte count and a low concentration of sICAM-1 (> or = mean - SD; 100 versus 25%, P < 0.0001). Higher levels both of monocyte counts and of serum concentrations of ICAM-1 may serve as markers for coronary atherosclerosis.

The findings suggested the presence of both intrapulmonary vascular dilatation and substantial right-to-left shunt. The contribution of intrapulmonary vascular abnormalities in patients with severe liver cirrhosis without abnormal chest radiography and spirometry tests when marked hypoxemia is present should be investigated.

Tetsuzo Wakatsuki : Coronary flow velocity immediately after primary coronary stenting as a predictor of ventricular wall motion recovery in acute myocardial infarction, Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Vol.35, No.7, 1835-1841, 2000. (要約) The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the pattern of coronary blood flow velocity immediately after successful primary stenting and the recovery of left ventricular (LV) wall motion in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). It is difficult to predict the recovery of LV wall motion immediately after direct angioplasty in AMI. Recent reports indicate that dysfunctional coronary microcirculation is an important determinant of prognosis for AMI patients after successful reperfusion. We measured left anterior descending coronary flow velocity variables using a Doppler guide wire immediately after successful primary stenting in 31 patients with their first anterior AMI. The patients were divided into two groups: those with and those without early systolic reverse flow (ESRF). Changes in LV regional wall motion (RWM) and ejection fraction (EF) at admission and at discharge were compared between the two groups. Coronary flow velocity variables immediately after primary stenting were compared with changes in left ventriculographic indexes. The change in RWM was significantly greater in the non-ESRF group than it was in the ESRF group (0.9 +/- 0.7 vs. -0.1 +/- 0.3 standard deviation/chord, respectively, p < 0.001). The change in EF was also significantly greater in the non-ESRF group than it was in the ESRF group (10 +/- 10 vs. 1 +/- 6%, respectively, p < 0.05). In the non-ESRF group (diastolic to systolic velocity ratio [DSVR] <3.0), the DSVR correlated positively with the change in RWM (r = 0.60, p < 0.005, n = 24) and the change in EF (r = 0.52, p < 0.01). The coronary flow velocity pattern measured immediately after successful primary stenting is predictive of the recovery of regional and global LV function in patients with AMI.

(要約) We describe a patient with supraventricular tachycardia with triple atrioventricular (AV) node pathway physiology. A discontinuous curve was present in the antegrade AV nodal function curves. During right ventricular pacing, the earliest retrograde atrial activation was recorded at the left-sided coronary sinus electrode. The retrograde ventricular-atrial interval was long and had decremental conduction. We induced a slow-slow AV node reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) with eccentric retrograde left-sided activation. After slow pathway ablation, dual AV nodal pathway physiology was present. AVNRT with eccentric retrograde left-sided activation is relatively rare, and our findings suggest that eccentric retrograde left-sided atrial inputs consist partially of a slow pathway and disappear with slow pathway ablation.

(要約) It is well known that the distribution and magnitude of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy are not uniform in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), which results in regional heterogeneity of LV early diastolic function. The advent of tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) has allowed the noninvasive evaluation of regional LV wall motion velocities. The aim of this study was to evaluate regional LV relaxation abnormalities and asynchrony noninvasively in patients with HCM by using pulsed and color-coded TDI. We studied 20 patients with asymmetric septal hypertrophy (HCM group) and 18 age-matched normal patients (control group). The peak early diastolic motion velocity (Ew) and time from the aortic component of the second heart sound to the peak of the Ew (II(A)-Ew) were measured by pulsed TDI. The myocardial velocity gradient during early diastole (MVG-Ew) also was measured by color-coded TDI. Mean values for these parameters were determined on the basis of measurements made at 2 sites of the ventricular septum or posterior wall at the levels of chordae tendineae and papillary muscles. The mean Ew and mean MVG-Ew for the ventricular septum and posterior wall were significantly lower, and mean II(A)-Ew was significantly prolonged in the HCM group compared with the control group. This difference was most pronounced in the hypertrophied ventricular septum of the HCM group. The standard deviations of II(A)-Ew for the ventricular septum and posterior wall were significantly greater in the HCM group than in the control group. The time constant of LV pressure decay during isovolumic diastole (tau) correlated inversely with Ew and MVG-Ew and correlated directly with II(A)-Ew. Furthermore, tau correlated directly with the standard deviation of the II(A)-Ew. LV early diastolic function in patients with HCM may be mediated by an augmentation of regional LV relaxation abnormalities and asynchrony.

(要約) Circulating leukocytes are recruited at atherosclerotic sites through a family of adhesion molecules. Circulating forms of adhesion molecules in peripheral blood can be quantified now. To evaluate the relationship between circulating adhesion molecules and severity of coronary atherosclerosis. Subjects included 81 patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography, 12 of whom had normal coronary arteries (control group). The remaining 69 patients with demonstrable coronary atherosclerosis were divided into two groups by use of Gensini scores, namely mild atherosclerosis (n = 36, Gensini score 1-20) and severe atherosclerosis (n = 33, Gensini score > 20). Serum levels of circulating intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cellular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and E-selectin of groups measured before angiography were compared. Circulating levels of ICAM-1 in members of mild and severe atherosclerosis groups were significantly higher than those in members of the control group, whereas there was no significant difference among circulating levels of VCAM-1 in members of the three groups. Circulating levels of E-selectin in members of the mild atherosclerosis group were significantly higher than those in members of the severe atherosclerosis and control groups. These findings suggest that E-selectin is related to the early stage, and ICAM-1 is related to the advanced stage, of coronary atherosclerosis. With progression of atherosclerosis, one-step adhesion by ICAM-1 could become more important than multistep adhesion involving E-selectin, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1. These molecules may serve as markers for severity of coronary atherosclerosis.

(要約) Recent reports indicate that the coronary microcirculation is sometimes injured, despite successful reperfusion in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, it is difficult to evaluate the coronary microcirculation immediately after reperfusion by using only angiography. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the pattern of coronary blood flow velocity and myocardial microcirculatory injury immediately after reperfusion in AMI. The authors recorded the left circumflex coronary flow velocity by using the Doppler guide wire method 10 minutes after reperfusion in a canine model of AMI. In addition, myocardial contrast echocardiography was performed with the injection of contrast medium into the left circumflex coronary artery before clamping of the coronary artery and 15 minutes after release of the clamp. From these images, the ratio of the normalized gray-level postreperfusion to preclamping in the contrast-enhanced area was determined. It was compared with coronary flow velocity variables. In the 10 dogs with a diastolic-to-systolic velocity ratio (DSVR) < 4.0, this velocity ratio 10 minutes after reperfusion correlated positively (r = 0.75, p < 0.01) with the normalized gray-level ratio. However, the remaining three dogs with a DSVR > or = 4.0 markedly deviated from this pattern. Coronary flow velocities in the three dogs were characterized by a greater decrease in systolic flow velocity and occurrence of early systolic retrograde flow. Myocardial contrast echocardiographic images in these three dogs demonstrated a lower normalized gray-level ratio. In conclusion, the coronary flow velocity pattern immediately after reperfusion may reflect myocardial microcirculatory injury.

Tetsuzo Wakatsuki : The pattern of alteration in flow velocity in the recanalized artery is related to left ventricular recovery in patients with acute infarction and successful direct balloon angioplasty, Journal of the American College of Cardiology, Vol.32, No.2, 338-344, 1998. (要約) We evaluated the relationship between alterations in coronary flow velocity during the acute phase of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and the recovery of left ventricular wall motion in patients who underwent successful primary angioplasty. The status of the coronary microcirculation is the major determinant of the prognosis of patients who have had successful reperfusion after AMI. Animal studies have shown that dynamic changes in regional flow are associated with the extent of infarction. Evaluation of alterations in coronary flow velocity in infarcted arteries may provide information about microcirculatory damage. Flow velocity of the distal anterior descending artery was continuously monitored with the use of a Doppler guide wire immediately after recanalization for 18 +/- 4 h in 19 patients who underwent successful primary angioplasty after anterior AMI. Subjects were divided into two groups on the basis of the time course of alterations in average peak velocity (APV). Group D consisted of patients who had progressive decreases in APV through the next day (n = 9), and Group I comprised patients with an increase in APV after a transient decline (n = 10). Ejection fraction (EF) and regional wall motion (RWM) were assessed by left ventriculography performed on admission and at discharge. The APV at the end of monitoring was greater in group I than in group D. In group I, EF and RWM were significantly improved at discharge. The change in EF was greater in group I than in group D (17 +/- 9% vs. 4 +/- 9%, p = 0.007), as was the change in RWM (0.96 +/- 0.23 vs. 0.13 +/- 0.36 SD/chord, p < 0.0001). The alteration in flow velocity in recanalized infarcted arteries is related to left ventricular recovery. A progressive decrease in velocity after angioplasty implies no reflow, which is associated with a poor recovery of left ventricular function. Reperfusion injury may account in part for this phenomenon.

(要約) The right atrial electric potential was measured in 29 patients with chronic atrial fibrillation, and the clinical utility of these measurements in predicting the success of atrial defibrillation was investigated. The endocardial electric potential was recorded at 12 sites within the right atrium (high, middle, and low loci of anterior, posterior, lateral, and medial sites of the right atrium) with an electrode catheter. The duration and polar displacement of the atrial waves were measured at the one site that showed the maximum atrial electric potential among the 12 sites. The ratio of the maximum to the minimum atrial electric potential (atrial wave ratio) was calculated. Patients were classified into two groups according to the success (n = 6) or failure (n = 23) of atrial defibrillation. Electrophysiologic data were compared between the two groups, and correlations were evaluated between the data and the maximal left atrial diameter obtained from M-mode echocardiography. The two groups did not differ in the duration and polar displacement of the atrial waves. However, the atrial wave ratio was significantly lower in the success group than in the failure group, and the success rate of atrial defibrillation was also significantly greater in the patients with an atrial wave ratio of 10 or lower. This ratio showed a positive correlation with the maximal left atrial diameter; it became more difficult to achieve atrial defibrillation as the atrial wave ratio increased. Thus, the right atrial electric potential profile of patients with atrial fibrillation is a useful predictor of the success of atrial defibrillation.

(要約) There have been few studies concerning the electrophysiologic changes associated with the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in patients with acute myocardial infarction. We examined the electrophysiologic effects of quinaprilat in dogs during acute myocardial ischemia and following reperfusion. The left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded for 10 min and reperfused for 10 min. Animals received intravenous quinaprilat (3 micrograms/kg per min, quinaprilat group) or saline (control group). We measured the ventricular effective refractory period and intra-myocardial conduction time within the left anterior descending coronary artery region (ischemic region) during myocardial ischemia and following reperfusion, and determined the frequency of ventricular fibrillation. The effective refractory period in the ischemic region decreased during myocardial ischemia and decreased further immediately after reperfusion in the control group. The intra-myocardial conduction time in the ischemic region increased during myocardial ischemia but rapidly shortened after reperfusion in the control group. In the quinaprilat group, however, no significant differences were evident between the ischemic and non-ischemic regions in either the effective refractory period or the intra-myocardial conduction time during myocardial ischemia or following reperfusion. The percentage shortening of the effective refractory period and the percentage prolongation of the intra-myocardial conduction time in the ischemic region were significantly lower in the quinaprilat group than in the control group during myocardial ischemia and following reperfusion. The frequency of ventricular fibrillation during myocardial ischemia and following reperfusion was significantly lower in the quinaprilat group (21%) than in the control group (74%; P < 0.01). Quinaprilat protects against electrophysiologic abnormalities, and may decrease arrhythmias during acute myocardial ischemia and following reperfusion.

(要約) It is difficult to evaluate the extent of myocardial injury after successful reperfusion following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We investigated the relationship between the coronary flow velocity pattern immediately after reperfusion and pathologic characteristics after myocardial reperfusion injury in dogs. We measured distal coronary flow velocity variables in the left circumflex coronary artery in a canine model of AMI (n = 12) 10 min after the release of a clamp (3-10 h clamp procedure) using a 0.35 mm Doppler guide-wire. Dogs were divided into two groups according to presence or absence of early systolic retrograde coronary flow. Hearts were excised 2 h after reperfusion and examined histopathologically. The clamping time tended to be longer in dogs with early systolic retrograde coronary flow. Neutrophil infiltration was observed in the myocardium of dogs without systolic retrograde flow (n = 9); hemorrhage was rarely detectable and the myocardium maintained a bundle form. However, the bundle form of the myocardium became rough, and the severity of the incidence of hemorrhage tended to increase as the ratio of the diastolic coronary flow velocity to systolic velocity (DSVR) decreased. Vacuolar degeneration of the myocardium was also observed in hearts with a relatively low DSVR. In the group with systolic retrograde flow (n = 3), hearts were characterized by coagulation necrosis, marked vacuolar degeneration of the myocardium and diffusely distributed red cells in the intermyocytes. Systolic antegrade flow velocity was much reduced in this group, resulting in a markedly increased DSVR. These findings appeared to be related to severe myocardial damage. Coronary flow velocity patterns immediately after successful reperfusion appear to reflect the pathologic characteristics of the reperfused myocardium in dogs with AMI.

(要約) The magnetocardiogram (MCG) is a newly developed method that helps localize a cardiac current source. To test the clinical accuracy of a 7-channel biomagnetic system in the localization of early ventricular depolarization sites, the MCGs of 14 patients with Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome were recorded in a radiofrequency-shielded room. The locations of early ventricular depolarization sites were classified by standard 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) and body surface isopotential mapping. The accessory pathways of 3 patients with WPW syndrome were located in the right free wall and in 11 patients in the left free wall. The three-dimensional (3-D) dipole location was computed every 2 ms from the onset of the QRS complex by the least-square method. These 3-D dipole locations were projected onto a gated magnetic resonance image in order to visualize the propagation of the calculated ventricular source. The results were compared with those obtained by body surface isopotential mapping, and electrocardiographic and electrophysiologic studies. The location of the deduced current dipole at 20 ms correlated well with the location of the accessory pathway by the body surface mappings in 12 of the 14 patients with WPW syndrome. The MCG is capable of precisely determining the 3-D location of a current source in a noninvasive manner and may be of potential benefit in the treatment of WPW syndrome by catheter ablation.

(要約) Vesnarinone is a new, non vasodilating cardiotonic agent. This study compared the effects of vesnarinone and amrinone, a phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors with vasodilating actions, on cultured smooth muscle cells from the porcine coronary artery. Application of vesnarinone (10(-4) M) or amrinone (10(-4) M) to the bath solution in cell-attached patches activated the KCa channel having a conductance of 133 pS (bath 2.7 mM K, pipette 140 mM K). Application of vesnarinone to the cytosolic side had no direct effect on KCa channel activities in inside-out patches. Activation of the KCa channel was suppressed when the intracellular production of cAMP was suppressed by preincubation with carbachol (10(-6) M). Amrinone, but not vesnarinone, lowered [Ca2+]i in the K(+)-depolarized smooth muscle cells (K+ = 70 mM). These results suggest that vesnarinone exerts an additional effect on [Ca2+]i that is independent of PDE inhibition. The difference in the effects on [Ca2+]i in vascular smooth muscle cells may explain in part the differing actions of these agents on vascular relaxation.

(要約) A delayed diagnosis of polyarteritis nodosa may lead to critical limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). A 74-year-old woman presented with left-foot pain and was treated with oral vasodilators and antiplatelet agents. However, the distal ischemia progressed to CLTI, including gangrene of the fingers and toes, and bilateral foot dropping appeared because of peroneal nerve paralysis. Angiography of the extremities revealed obstruction and stenosis of medium-sized arteries. Based on the progressive distal gangrene, mononeuropathy multiplex, and pathological findings of necrotic vasculitis, polyarteritis nodosa was diagnosed, and the patient's condition improved. A biopsy and neurological examination are essential for the appropriate diagnosis of PAN and immediate treatment.

(要約) 【Background】 Percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) is recommended for patients with heart failure due to renovascular hypertension ; however, the clinical characteristics of the patients and the effects of PTRA on heart failure and cardiorenal function have not been elucidated. 【Methods】 We retrospectively analyzed data for 4 PTRA-treated patients (male/female, 1/3 ; mean age, 70.0±10 years ; mean left ventricular ejection fraction, 51.5±15.2%) with heart failure due to renovascular hypertension and evaluated the effects of PTRA on heart failure and cardiorenal function 6 months after treatment. 【Results】 All patients had pro-arteriosclerotic diseases including diabetes mellitus, essential thrombocythemia, heparin cofactor II deficency, metabolic syndrome, and familial hypercholesterolemia, and 3 patients had ischemic heart disease. No abdominal bruit was heard and mean plasma renin activity was 4.5±3.6 ng/ml/hr, which was not elevated, contrary to expectation. All contralateral kidneys of PTRA were nonfunctioning, suggesting bilateral kidneys were disturbed in all patients. In all patients, PTRA was successfully performed and resolved heart failure. PTRA resulted in decreases in systolic blood pressure from 157±18 to 124±8.6 mmHg, mean serum creatinine from 3.2±2.6 to 2.7±2.2 mg/dl, and mean BNP from 919±998 to 243±291 pg/ml at 6 months after treatment. PTRA did not change left ventricular ejection fraction, a parameter of systolic fraction evaluated by an echocardiogram ; however, PTRA improved E/e', a parameter of left ventricular diastolic fraction, from 16.1±5.2 to 9.7±3.7. None of the patients were hospitalized due to heart failure during the 6-month period after PTRA. 【Conclusions】 Patients with heart failure with cardiovascular risk factors should be screened for renovascular hypertension regardless of abdominal bruit or plasma renin activity. PTRA is effective for resolving heart failure and for improving renal and cardiac diastolic functions in patients with renovascular hypertension complicated with heart failure.

(要約) A 75-year-old man suffered sustained ventricular tachycardia with syncopal attack. Ventricular tachycardias appeared repeatedly, and an electrical defibrillator was used after an anti-arrhythmic drug, such as lidocaine or mexiletine, proved ineffective. The tachycardias had multiple origins, and the signal-averaged electrocardiogram (SAECG) showed ventricular late potential before the administration of amiodarone. After administration, the filtered QRS and duration of the late potential increased, but the recurrence of tachycardias was suppressed. The reason for this is thought to be that amiodarone blocked the sodium channel and delayed conduction, consequently blocking reentry, because amiodaron has antiarrhymic properties with a prolongation of refractoriness and minimal effect on conduction velocity in ventricular myocardium, and inhibits sympathetic activity, and blocks L-type calcium channel besides the depression of the fast sodium channel. In this case, SAECG predicted to some degree whether or not this patient's ventricular tachycardia would respond to amiodarone.
