ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) often experience a poor prognosis due to cardiac damage induced by anthracycline chemotherapy, with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction manifesting early. Vector Flow Mapping (VFM) is a novel technology, and its effectiveness in detecting left ventricular diastolic dysfunction following anthracycline chemotherapy remains unverified. OBJECTS This study evaluates left ventricular diastolic function in DLBCL patients after anthracycline chemotherapy using vector flow mapping (VFM). MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We prospectively enrolled 54 DLBCL patients who had undergone anthracycline chemotherapy (receiving a minimum of 4 cycles) as the case group and 54 age- and sex-matched individuals as controls. VFM assessments were conducted in the case group pre-chemotherapy (T0), post-4 chemotherapy cycles (T4), and in the control group. Measurements included basal, middle, and apical segment energy loss (ELb, ELm, ELa) and intraventricular pressure differences (IVPDb, IVPDm, IVPDa) across four diastolic phases isovolumic relaxation (D1), rapid filling (D2), slow filling (D3), and atrial contraction (D4).RESULTS:
When comparing parameters between the control and case groups at T0, no significant differences were observed in general data, conventional ultrasound parameters, and VFM parameters (all P > 0.05). From T0 to T4, ELa significantly increased throughout the diastole cycle (all P < 0.05); ELm increased only during D4 (all P < 0.05); and ELb increased during D1, D2, and D4 (all P < 0.05). All IVPD measurements (IVPDa, IVPDm, IVPDb) increased during D1 and D4 (all P < 0.05) but decreased during D2 and D3 (all P < 0.05). Significant positive correlations were identified between ELa-D4, IVPDa-D4, and parameters A, e', E/e,' and LAVI (all r > 0.5, all P < 0.001). Negative correlations were noted with E/A for ELa- D4 IVPDa-D4 (all r < -0.5, all P < 0.001). Positive correlations were observed for IVPDa-D1, IVPDa-D2 with E, E/e', and LAVI (0.3
