Chest pain can occur in both types with variable clinical presentations. This narrative review describes the relationship between CA and chest pain. A PubMed search (June 03. 2024) identified 393 articles related to chest pain in CA. Twenty-eight studies, in English and with full text, were selected. Articles included were case reports, reviews, perfusion- and autopsy studies. In CA patients 10-20% report chest pain as the initial symptom preceding the diagnosis, and the overall prevalence of chest pain is 38% of patients with CA and it is related to an increased risk of heart failure hospitalization. The mechanisms leading to chest pain in CA patients include increased left ventricular diastolic pressure, infiltration of amyloid fibrils inside and around coronary arteries, and amyloid compression of the microvasculature. The mechanisms commonly lead to elevations of plasma troponin levels, which are higher in amyloid patients with chest pain compared to amyloid patients without chest pain. Symptomatic treatment of chest pain can be challenging due to the low tolerability of medical therapy and poor outcomes of coronary interventions in alleviating the pain and with a higher rate of complications. Our review underscores the importance of recognizing chest pain as a CA symptom, particularly in the elderly. Persistent troponin elevation without coronary artery disease could indicate CA. Screening-based and longitudinal studies are crucial for understanding the relationship between chest pain and CA. Acknowledging the significance of chest pain in CA may facilitate early intervention and improve patient outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":7868,"journal":{"name":"American heart journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142643263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the pre-specified subgroup with ejection fraction ≤60% (N=357), sacubitril/valsartan showed a treatment effect on the hierarchical outcome (WR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.08-1.97). Sensitivity analyses for this subgroup included: 1) excluding NT-proBNP change, 2) substituting the 25% proportion change of NT-proBNP with 10% or 50%, and 3) including renal outcomes within the hierarchical outcome. In addition to the WR, the win odds (WO), in which 50% of the ties are allocated to both the numerator and denominator of the WR-a potentially more suitable modification of the WR that accounts for the presence of ties-were presented.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Excluding NT-proBNP (WR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.00-2.22; WO, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.00-1.26), adjusting the NT-proBNP threshold from 25% to 10% or 50% (WR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.06-1.89; WO, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.04-1.56 for 10%; and WR, 1.54; 95% CI, 1.11-2.12; WO, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.06-1.48 for 50%), and incorporating renal outcomes (WR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.07-1.94; WO, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.05-1.56) consistently favored sacubitril/valsartan.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Multiple WR sensitivity analyses support a consistent treatment benefit of sacubitril/valsartan versus valsartan in patients with ejection fraction >40% to 60%.

Physical activity can reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in cancer survivors, but Black and Hispanic people are less likely to engage in routine physical activity. Concepts from behavioral economics have been used to design scalable, low-touch, gamification interventions that increase physical activity in individuals at high risk for cardiovascular events, but the effectiveness of these strategies in Black and Hispanic survivors of breast and prostate cancer is uncertain.</p><p><strong>Study design and objectives: </strong>ALLSTAR (NCT05176756) is a pragmatic, virtual, randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a gamification intervention informed by behavioral economic concepts to increase daily physical activity in Black and Hispanic breast and prostate cancer survivors who received cardiotoxic therapies and have additional risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Patients were either referred by their cancer care team or identified by electronic health record searches; contacted by letter, email, text message and/or phone; and complete enrollment and informed consent on the Penn Way to Health online platform. Patients are then provided with a wearable fitness tracker, establish a baseline daily step count, set a goal to increase daily step count by 1500-3000 steps from baseline, and are randomized 1:1 to control or gamification. Interventions continue for 6 months, with follow-up for an additional 3 months to evaluate the durability of behavior change. The trial has met its enrollment goal of 150 participants, with a primary endpoint of change from baseline in daily steps over the 6-month intervention period. Key secondary endpoints include change from baseline in daily steps over the 3-month post-intervention follow-up period, change in moderate to vigorous physical activity over the intervention and follow-up periods, and change in patient-reported measures of physical function, fatigue, and overall quality of life.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>ALLSTAR is a virtual, pragmatic randomized clinical trial powered to demonstrate whether gamification is superior to control in increasing physical activity in Black and Hispanic breast and prostate cancer survivors. Its results will have important implications for strategies to promote physical activity in survivors of breast and prostate cancer, specifically among minority populations.</p><p><strong>Clinical trial registration: </strong>clinicaltrials.gov; https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05176756.</p>","PeriodicalId":7868,"journal":{"name":"American heart journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142590061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
