We aimed to evaluate the incidence of ventricular tachyarrhythmia in patients with isolated CS. Ninety-four patients with CS were enrolled. Isolated CS was diagnosed by histological or clinical confirmation in the heart alone. The endpoint was sudden cardiac death, ventricular fibrillation, sustained ventricular tachycardia, or implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy for ventricular fibrillation or sustained ventricular tachycardia. Twenty-five patients were diagnosed with isolated CS, and 69 with CS with extracardiac involvement. As the initial cardiac manifestation leading to the CS diagnosis, 10 (40%) patients with isolated CS had ventricular tachyarrhythmia. Over the median follow-up of 48 months after the CS diagnosis, sudden cardiac death occurred in 2 (8%) patients with isolated CS. Ventricular fibrillation or sustained ventricular tachycardia, including ICD therapy, occurred in 15 (60%) patients with isolated CS and 13 (19%) with CS with extracardiac involvement. The rate of ventricular tachyarrhythmia was higher in patients with isolated CS than in those with CS with extracardiac involvement (log-rank, p < 0.01). Cox proportional hazard analysis showed that isolated CS was independently associated with ventricular tachyarrhythmia.

This study analyzed 617 patients hospitalized for acute HF in the Diuretic Optimization Strategies in Acute Heart Failure (DOSE-AHF), Renal Optimization Strategies Evaluation in Acute Heart Failure (ROSE-AHF), and Cardiorenal Rescue Study in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure (CARESS-HF) trials.

For patients with moderate-to-severe MR, there was no difference in weight loss, net fluid loss, or change in creatinine compared with those without moderate-to-severe regurgitation (all p >0.05 at 72 hours).

In this longitudinal study, we included 32 patients with long-term heart transplantations (median interval after transplant 13.8 years) with angiographic manifest CAV. In 299 matched nonstented segments at 3 distinct time points ([TPs] 0 to 2, with median intervals of 2 years, respectively), progress of diameter stenosis (D%DS) defined CAV progress. Values above the median of maximal D%DS defined substantial CAV progress. Category of left ventricular ejection fraction was evaluated at TP0 and TP3 (2 years after TP2). Findings were correlated with dyslipidemia patterns at TP0, and lipid variations at follow-up (TP1 to TP3). Analyses included routine lipid assessment, and triglycerides/high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-c) and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP). At TP1 and TP2, patients with increase of TG/HDL-c ≥0.1 (p = 0.02, respectively) and with increase of AIP (p = 0.01 and p = 0.049, respectively) presented a greater maximal D%DS. Dyslipidemia patterns at TP0 did not show a relevant association with CAV progress. At TP2, increase of TGs, TG/HDL-c, and AIP were associated with substantial CAV progress (odds ratio [OR] 5.0, p = 0.046, and OR 9.2, p = 0.01, OR 6.6, p = 0.02, respectively). At TP3, patients with CAV-related worsening of left ventricular ejection fraction category presented with a greater increase of TG/HDL-c (p = 0.03). Although findings at TP0 did not affect CAV progress, an increase of TG/HDL-c could define patients at greater risk of CAV progress and CAV-related deterioration of graft function.</p>","PeriodicalId":7705,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Cardiology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142754577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
