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...

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...

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...

Sex-Related Differences in Medically Treated Moderate Aortic Stenosis.
Stassen J, Pio SM, Ewe SH, Amanullah MR, Hirasawa K, Butcher SC, Singh GK, Sin KYK, Ding ZP, Chew NWS, Sia CH, Kong WKF, Poh KK, Cohen DJ, Généreux P, Leon MB, Marsan NA, Delgado V, Bax JJ
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...

The dysfunctional right ventricle: the importance of multi-modality imaging.
Surkova E, Cosyns B, Gerber B, Gimelli A, La Gerche A, Ajmone Marsan N
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...

Long-term follow-up of thoracoscopic ablation in long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation.
Harlaar N, Oudeman MA, Trines SA, de Ruiter GS, Mertens BJ, Khan M, Klautz RJM, Zeppenfeld K, Zeppenfeld K, Tjon A, Braun J, van Brakel TJ
Objectives: Catheter ablation of long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (LSPAF) remains challenging, with suboptimal success rates obtained following multiple procedures. Thoracoscopic ablation has shown effective at creating transmural lesions around the pulmonary veins and box; however, long-term rhythm follow-up data are lacking. This study aims, for the first time, to assess the long-term outcomes of thoracoscopic pulmonary vein and box ablation in LSPAF. Methods: Rhythm follow-up cons...

Clinical implications of left atrial reverse remodelling after cardiac resynchronization therapy.
Stassen J, Galloo X, Chimed S, Hirasawa K, Marsan NA, Delgado V, van der Bijl P, Bax JJ
Aims: Left atrial (LA) function is a marker of prognosis in patients with heart failure. The prognostic implications of an improvement in LA function in addition to an improvement in left ventricular (LV) function after cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) implantation are unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of a significant change in LA reservoir strain (RS) and/or LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) after initiation of CRT. Methods and results: LARS and LVGLS were mea...

Sex differences in left ventricular remodelling in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis.
Kuneman JH, Singh GK, Milhorini Pio S, Hirasawa K, Hautemann D, van der Kley F, Ajmone Marsan N, Knuuti J, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Aims: Women with severe aortic stenosis (AS) have better long-term outcome after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) but worse survival after surgical aortic valve replacement compared with men. Whether this is related to sex differences in left ventricular (LV) remodelling is unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the sex differences in LV remodelling with multidetector row computed tomography (MDCT) and outcome in patients with severe AS undergoing TAVI between 2007 and 2018....

Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has put tremendous pressure on healthcare systems. Most transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) centres have adopted different triage systems and procedural strategies to serve highest-risk patients first and to minimise the burden on hospital logistics and personnel. We therefore assessed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on patient selection, type of anaesthesia and outcomes after TAVI. Methods: We used data from the Nethe...

Methods: A total of 234 patients with core-lab adjudicated ACS after baseline CCTA were enrolled. Atherosclerotic plaque was quantified and characterized from the main epicardial vessels and side branches on a 0.5 mm cross-sectional basis. Calcified plaque and non-calcified plaque were defined by above or be...

Alirocumab and Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients With Previous Myocardial Infarction: Prespecified Subanalysis From ODYSSEY OUTCOMES.
Chiang CE, Schwartz GG, Elbez Y, Szarek M, Bhatt DL, Bittner VA, Diaz R, Erglis A, Goodman SG, Hagström E, Jukema JW, Liberopoulos E, Loy M, Pordy R, White HD, Simon T, Steg PG, ODYSSEY OUTCOMES Investigators
Background: After acute coronary syndrome (ACS), patients with a previous myocardial infarction (MI) may be at particularly high risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and death. We studied the effects of the PCSK9 inhibitor alirocumab in patients with recent ACS according to previous history of MI. Methods: The ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial compared alirocumab with placebo, beginning 1 to 12 months after ACS with median 2.8-year follow-up. The primary MACE outcome comprised death from cor...

Purpose: Liquid biopsies in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) provide a unique approach to understand the molecular basis of treatment response and resistance. This is particularly important in the context of immunotherapies, which target key immune-tumor interactions. Unlike metastatic tissue biopsies, serial real-time profiling of mRCC is feasible with our noninvasive circulating tumor cell (CTC) approach. Methods: We collected 457 longitudinal liquid biopsies from 104 patients with mRCC...
