Cardiovascular research, Volume 118, Issue 10, 1 1 2022, Pages 2293-2303 Optical ventricular cardioversion by local optogenetic targeting and LED implantation in a cardiomyopathic rat model. Nyns ECA, Jin T, Fontes MS, van den Heuvel T, Portero V, Ramsey C, Bart CI, Zeppenfeld K, Zeppenfeld K, Schalij MJ, van Brakel TJ, Ramkisoensing AA, Zhang G, Poelma RH, Ördög B, de Vries AAF, Pijnappels DA
Aims: Ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VTs) are common in the pathologically remodelled heart. These arrhythmias can be lethal, necessitating acute treatment like electrical cardioversion to restore normal rhythm. Recently, it has been proposed that cardioversion may also be realized via optically controlled generation of bioelectricity by the arrhythmic heart itself through optogenetics and therefore without the need of traumatizing high-voltage shocks. However, crucial mechanistic and translation... Abstract

Cardiovascular Imaging, Volume 23, Issue 8, 1 1 2022, Pages 1090-1097 Association between computed tomography-derived tricuspid annular dimensions and prognosis: insights from whole-beat computed tomography assessment. Hirasawa K, Fortuni F, van Rosendael PJ, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ, Delgado V
Aims: Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) has been associated with outcome in patients treated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Tricuspid annulus (TA) dimensions are associated with TR. However, the TA is highly dynamic during the cardiac cycle, and the interaction between the TA dimensions, TR, and patient prognosis has never been evaluated. This study aimed to characterize the dynamics of the TA along with the cardiac cycle and its association with prognosis in patients undergoing... Abstract

Annals of cardiothoracic surgery, Volume 11, Issue 4, 1 1 2022, Pages 380-388 Normal and abnormal development of the aortic valve and ascending aortic wall: a comprehensive overview of the embryology and pathology of the bicuspid aortic valve. Grewal N, Gittenberger-de Groot AC, Lindeman JH, Klautz A, Driessen A, Klautz RJM, Poelmann RE
A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most prevalent congenital cardiac anomaly, in which the valve has only two leaflets, instead of the normal three. Patients with a BAV have an increased risk of aneurysm formation and the development of an aortic dissection. Vascular smooth muscle cells in both the non- and dilated aortic wall are characterized by a maturation defect in all BAV patients, as compared to patients with a tricuspid aortic valve, which can contribute to inherent developmental susce...

Background: The knowledge of factors influencing disease progression in patients with established coronary heart disease (CHD) is still relatively limited. One potential pathway is related to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1 alpha (PPARGC1A), a transcription factor linked to energy metabolism which may play a role in the heart function. Thus, its associations with subsequent CHD events remain unclear. We aimed to investigate the effect of three different SNPs in the... Abstract

Science (New York, N.Y.), Volume 376, Issue 6599, 17 3 2022, Pages eabf9088 Spatial centrosome proteome of human neural cells uncovers disease-relevant heterogeneity. O'Neill AC, Uzbas F, Antognolli G, Merino F, Draganova K, Jäck A, Zhang S, Pedini G, Schessner JP, Cramer K, Schepers A, Metzger F, Esgleas M, Smialowski P, Guerrini R, Falk S, Feederle R, Freytag S, Wang Z, Bahlo M, Jungmann R, Bagni C, Borner GHH, Robertson SP, Hauck SM, Götz M
The centrosome provides an intracellular anchor for the cytoskeleton, regulating cell division, cell migration, and cilia formation. We used spatial proteomics to elucidate protein interaction networks at the centrosome of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived neural stem cells (NSCs) and neurons. Centrosome-associated proteins were largely cell type-specific, with protein hubs involved in RNA dynamics. Analysis of neurodevelopmental disease cohorts identified a significant overrepresentat...

Backgrounds: This study aimed to investigate the association between left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) and the occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods: A total of 373 patients with HCM and no history of AF were evaluated by transthoracic echocardiography. LACI was defined by the ratio of left atrial (LA) end-diastolic volume divided by left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic volume. The cut-off value for LACI (≥40%) to identify LA-... Abstract

The American journal of cardiology, Volume 177, 9 2 2022, Pages 90-99 Prognostic Implications of Change in Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation. Kuneman JH, Butcher SC, Singh GK, Wang X, Hirasawa K, van der Kley F, Leon MB, Knuuti J, Pibarot P, Ajmone Marsan N, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Reduced left ventricular (LV) systolic function is associated with worse prognosis in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) treated with transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We aimed to examine the changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after TAVI among patients with varying baseline LVEF. Moreover, variables associated with lack of LVEF improvement were identified and the association with long-term outcomes was investigated. A total of 560 patients (age 80 ± 7 years... Abstract

Noninvasive evaluation of indexes of right ventricular (RV) myocardial work (RVMW) derived from RV pressure-strain loops may provide novel insights into RV function in precapillary pulmonary hypertension. This study was designed to evaluate the association between the indexes of RVMW and invasive parameters of right heart catheterization and all-cause mortality. Noninvasive analysis of RVMW was completed in 51 patients (mean age 58.1 ± 12.7 years, 31% men) with group I or group IV pulmonary hype... Abstract

Clinical cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 8, 8 2 2022, Pages 873-881 Longitudinal quantitative assessment of coronary atherosclerosis related to normal systolic blood pressure maintenance in the absence of established cardiovascular disease. Won KB, Park HB, Heo R, Lee BK, Lin FY, Hadamitzky M, Kim YJ, Sung JM, Conte E, Andreini D, Pontone G, Budoff MJ, Gottlieb I, Chun EJ, Cademartiri F, Maffei E, Marques H, Gonçalves PA, Leipsic JA, Lee SE, Shin S, Choi JH, Virmani R, Samady H, Chinnaiyan K, Berman DS, Narula J, Bax JJ, Min JK, Chang HJ
Background: Atherosclerosis-related adverse events are commonly observed even in conditions with low cardiovascular (CV) risk. Longitudinal data regarding the association of normal systolic blood pressure maintenance (SBPmaintain ) with coronary plaque volume changes (PVC) has been limited in adults without traditional CV disease. Hypothesis: Normal SBPmaintain is important to attenuate coronary atherosclerosis progression in adults without baseline CV disease. Methods: We analyzed 95 adults (56... Abstract

Background: Recent data showed poor long-term survival in patients with moderate AS. Although sex differences in left ventricular (LV) remodeling and outcome are well described in severe AS, it has not been evaluated in moderate AS. Methods: In this retrospective, multicenter study, patients with a first diagnosis of moderate AS diagnosed between 2001 and 2019 were identified. Clinical and echocardiographic parameters were recorded at baseline and compared between men and women. Patients were fo... Abstract

Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function is crucial for the evaluation of the dyspnoeic patient and/or with systemic venous congestion and provides powerful prognostic insights. It can be performed using different imaging modalities including standard and advanced echocardiographic techniques, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and radionuclide techniques, which should be used in a complementary fashion. Each modality has strengths and weaknesses based on which the cho... Abstract
