We aimed to assess the diagnostic value of combining global longitudinal strain (GLS) with biomarkers for the early detection of anthracycline-related cardiac dysfunction.Methods: In a prospective cohort study, 80 consecutive adult patients (mean age 51 ± 11 years; 68.8% females) were screened and underwent 2D echocardiographic assessments and biomarker assessments [high-sensitivity troponin-I (hs-Troponin-I) and NT-pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)] before and after anthracycline-based chemotherapy's initial regimen. The patients were followed up for 12 weeks to monitor for the development of cardiotoxicity.Results: Ten patients (12.5%) developed cardiotoxicity at the end of the 12-week follow-up. Baseline values of hs-Troponin-I and NT-proBNP were significantly higher in patients who developed cardiotoxicity compared to those who did not, with a similar pattern observed at the 3-week follow-up. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated that a cutoff value of baseline hs-Troponin-I > 11 ng/L, NT-proBNP > 90.1 pg/mL, 3-week left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤ 52%, 3-week GLS ≥ - 14.5%, 3-week hs-Troponin-I > 13.1 ng/L, and 3-week NT-proBNP > 118.1 pg/mL predicted the occurrence of cardiotoxicity with high sensitivity (range 83-94%) and specificity (range 77-92%).Conclusion: Combination of GLS with biomarkers had a high diagnostic value in early identification of anthracycline-related cardiac dysfunction, with an estimated diagnostic accuracy of over 85%. This information could potentially help in the identification of patients at high risk of developing cardiac dysfunction, allowing for earlier management.","PeriodicalId":44837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Echocardiography","volume":" ","pages":"165-172"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9782775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, we explored the usefulness of PSI in facilitating stratification of risk in patients with intermediate- or low-risk NSTE-ACS.Methods and results: We assessed 50 consecutive patients suspected of intermediate- or low-risk NSTE-ACS, and finally analyzed 43 patients whose echocardiographic images were suitable for strain analysis. All patients underwent CAG. Among the 43 analyzed patients, 26 had CAD, and 21 underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients with CAD had higher PSI (25% [20.8-40.3%] vs 15% [8.0-27.5%], P = 0.007). Receiver-operator characteristic curve analysis identified that a PSI of > 20% detected performance of PCI (sensitivity 80.7%, specificity 70.6%, area under curve [AUC] 0.72, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.57-0.88). Moreover, the AUC obtained using the GRACE risk score was 0.57 (95% CI 0.39-0.75), and increased to 0.75 (95% CI 0.60-0.90) when PSI and LV GLS were added. Thus, the addition of PSI and LV GLS improved the classification of performance of PCI (net reclassification improvement [95%CI] 0.09 [0.0024-0.18], P = 0.04).Conclusions: Post-systolic index is a useful parameter that can facilitate stratification of risk in patients with intermediate- or low-risk NSTE-ACS. We recommend measuring PSI in routine clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":44837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Echocardiography","volume":" ","pages":"157-164"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10148042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Left atrial strain analysis was performed using two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography, and the left atrial volume was derived using the modified Simpson's method. The peak left atrial strain (LAS) and left atrial expansion index (LAEI), as indices of left atrial reservoir function, were measured. The global longitudinal strain (GLS) and mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE), which are indices of contractile motion toward the left ventricular apex, were also measured. The correlation between LAS and candidate determinants, including left ventricular systolic longitudinal function, was evaluated, and multivariate regression analysis was performed.Results: A significant correlation was found between LAS and left ventricular systolic longitudinal functions, GLS (r = 0.63, p < 0.001), and MAPSE (r = 0.65, p < 0.001). Two models, which were selected by multiple regression analyses for LAS, included GLS or MAPSE as independent determinants. GLS and MAPSE were also the strongest predictors, among other factors.Conclusion: LAS, when determined by evaluating the left atrial reservoir function, was significantly associated with left ventricular function, especially the systolic longitudinal function. Left ventricular function should be considered when assessing left atrial function by LAS.","PeriodicalId":44837,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Echocardiography","volume":" ","pages":"149-156"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9557737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
