Twelve-year trends in unprotected left main coronary artery occlusion: insights from a real-world multicentre study.

AIMS: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) resulting from unprotected left main coronary artery (LMCA) occlusion and subtotal occlusion is a life-threatening condition. Although AMI management has improved in the past two decades, there is limited information on recent trends in patient characteristics, management, and outcomes for acute unprotected LMCA-related AMI. This study aims to assess such trends over a 12 year period. METHODS AND RESULTS: This retrospective multicentre study includes patients with unprotected LMCA occlusion/subtotal occlusion admitted to three tertiary hospitals between 2008 and 2020. The patients were divided into two groups based on the chronology of presentation: a 'past group' (January 2008 to December 2014) and a 'contemporary group' (January 2015 to December 2020). The study compares clinical characteristics, management approaches, and outcomes between the two groups. The study includes 128 patients, with 51 (40%) in the 'past group' and 77 (60%) in the 'contemporary group'. Baseline risk factors did not show statistically significant differences between the two groups, except for hypertension (49% vs. 74%; P = 0.005). Chest pain was more frequent in the 'past group' (98% vs. 89%; P = 0.014), and a trend towards more cardiac arrests was observed in the 'contemporary group' (18% vs. 31%; P = 0.087). Revascularization type did not differ significantly (P = 0.419), but manual thrombectomy was less frequently used (41% vs. 23%; P = 0.032) and stent implantation showed a trend towards higher rates (66% vs. 78%; P = 0.150) in the 'contemporary cohort'. There was a gradual shift from bare-metal to drug-eluting stents, with a significantly higher percentage of ticagrelor/prasugrel loading in the 'contemporary cohort' (5% vs. 79%; P < 0.001). The use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS), although not statistically significant, was higher among patients in the 'past group' (67% vs. 51%; P = 0.073). The type of MCS differed significantly between groups, with a decrease in intra-aortic balloon pump use (67% vs. 42%; P = 0.005) and an increase in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (4% vs. 22%; P = 0.005) and Impella system (0% vs. 3%) over time. Survival analysis showed no significant differences (P = 0.599; log-rank test) in all-cause mortality between the different time groups, with the long-term survival rate being approximately 30%. CONCLUSIONS: In our real-world population, despite the progressive use of newer drugs and more advanced devices over time, patients with unprotected LMCA occlusion/subtotal occlusion remain a subpopulation with poor prognosis.

Amiodarone-Induced Electrical Storm: A Nightmare in the Emergency Room.

Drug-induced long QT syndrome (LQTS) is defined as prolonged corrected QT interval (QTc ≥460 ms) plus polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia fitting the description of torsades de pointes temporally associated with the administration of a drug or combination of drugs. Amiodarone therapy is a known uncommon cause of acquired QT interval prolongation that should not be underestimated. We present a case of an iatrogenic electrical storm with atrial fibrillation (AF) in which amiodarone was administered to attempt chemical cardioversion, resulting in an unnoticed prolongation of the QT interval, with subsequent repeated polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, managed with isoproterenol. Concomitant drugs and slight electrolyte disturbances potentiated this phenomenon. Given the widespread use of this drug in the emergency department, our case highlights a pertinent matter for all medical emergency practitioners. Additionally, it stresses the significance of potential precipitating factors, such as electrolyte imbalances, which are clinical conditions very frequent in the emergency context, along with the importance of recognizing drug interactions. Finally, this case also emphasizes the vital importance of closely monitoring the patient's receiving amiodarone.

ST-Segment Elevation: An Unexpected Culprit.

The clinical presentation of pulmonary embolism (PE) and acute coronary syndrome can be similar. We report a case of a patient presenting with antero-septal ST-segment elevation after cardiac arrest, found to have acute-PE-mimicking ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), treated with aspiration thrombectomy and catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT). A 78-year-old man was admitted with dyspnea, chest pain and tachycardia. During evaluation, cardiac arrest in pulseless electrical activity was documented. Advanced life support was started immediately. ECG post-ROSC revealed ST-segment elevation in V1-V4 and aVR. Echocardiography showed normal left ventricular function but right ventricular (RV) dilation and severe dysfunction. The patient was in shock and was promptly referred to cardiac catheterization that excluded significant CAD. Due to the discordant ECG and echocardiogram findings, acute PE was suspected, and immediate invasive pulmonary angiography revealed bilateral massive pulmonary embolism. Successful aspiration thrombectomy was performed followed by local alteplase infusion. At the end of the procedure, mPAP was reduced and blood pressure normalized allowing withdrawal of vasopressor support. Twenty-four-hour echocardiographic reassessment showed normal-sized cardiac chambers with preserved biventricular systolic function. Bedside echocardiography in patients with ST-segment elevation post-ROSC is instrumental in raising the suspicion of acute PE. In the absence of a culprit coronary lesion, prompt pulmonary angiography should be considered if immediately feasible. In these cases, CDT and aspiration in high-risk acute PE seem safe and effective in relieving obstructive shock and restoring hemodynamics.

"(Pseudo)cavities inside the heart: What may they unfold?"

Subvalvular aortic stenosis manifesting as a subaortic membrane predisposes to bacterial endocarditis, which typically affects the aortic valve (AoV) or, less frequently, the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). We present the case of a 60-year-old woman expressing an odd form of a subvalvular aortic membrane in conjunction with a left Valsalva sinus pseudoaneurysm as a result of an endocarditis complication.

Ticagrelor Loading on ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Interaction With Prodromal Angina on Infarct Size and Clinical Events.

INTRODUCTION: Ticagrelor might reduce infarct size by exerting a more potent antiplatelet effect or by promoting a potential conditioning stimulus in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. Pre-infarction angina (PIA) is an effective preconditioning stimulus that reduces ischemia-reperfusion injury. Because little is known on the interaction of PIA in STEMI-patients loaded with ticagrelor, we sought to determine if patients loaded with ticagrelor had improved clinical outcomes as compared to clopidogrel and to study if it is modulated by the presence of PIA. METHODS: From 1272 STEMI patients submitted to primary percutaneous coronary intervention and treated with clopidogrel or ticagrelor from January 2008 to December 2018, 826 were analyzed after propensity score matching. Infarct size was estimated using peak creatine kinase (CK) and troponin T (TnT), and clinical impact was evaluated through cumulative major cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) at 1-year follow-up. Matched patients and their interaction with PIA were analyzed. RESULTS: Patients loaded with ticagrelor had lower peak CK [1405.50 U/L (730.25-2491.00), P < .001] and TnT [3.58 ng/mL (1.73-6.59), P < .001)], regardless of PIA. The presence of PIA was associated with lower CK (P = .030), but not TnT (P = .097). There was no interaction between ticagrelor loading and PIA (P = .788 for TnT and P = .555 for CK). There was no difference in MACCE incidence between clopidogrel or ticagrelor loading (P = .129). Cumulative survival was also similar between clopidogrel or ticagrelor, regardless of PIA (P = .103). CONCLUSION: Ticagrelor reduced infarct sizes independently and without a synergic effect with PIA. Despite reducing infarct size, clinical outcomes were similar across both groups.

Acute total occlusion of the unprotected left main coronary artery: Patient characteristics and outcomes.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Acute total occlusion of the unprotected left main coronary artery (LMCA) is a dramatic event. There are limited data regarding this population. We aimed to describe the clinical presentation and outcomes of patients and to determine predictors of in-hospital mortality. METHODS: This retrospective study included patients presenting with acute (<12 h) myocardial infarction due to total occlusion of the LMCA (TIMI flow 0) between January 2008 and December 2020 in three tertiary hospitals. RESULTS: During this period, 11036 emergent coronary angiographies were performed, 59 (0.5%) of which revealed acute total occlusion of the LMCA. Patients' mean age was 61.2 (SD±12.2) years and 73% were male. No patients had left dominance. At presentation, 73% were in cardiogenic shock, aborted cardiac arrest occurred in 27% and 97% underwent myocardial revascularization. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention was performed in 90% of cases and angiographic success was achieved in 56% of procedures, while 7% of patients underwent surgical revascularization. In-hospital mortality was 58%. Among survivors, 92% and 67% were alive after one and five years, respectively. After multivariate analysis, only cardiogenic shock and angiographic success were independent predictors of in-hospital mortality. Use of mechanical circulatory support and presence of well-developed collateral circulation were not predictive of short-term prognosis. CONCLUSION: Acute total occlusion of the LMCA is associated with a dismal prognosis. Cardiogenic shock and angiographic success play a major role in predicting the prognosis of these patients. The effect of mechanical circulatory support on patient prognosis remains to be determined.

Right Ventricular Septal Versus Apical Pacing: Long-Term Incidence of Heart Failure and Survival.

The clinical benefits of right ventricular septal (RVS) pacing compared to those of right ventricular apical (RVA) pacing are still in debate. We aimed to compare the incidence of heart failure (HF) and all-cause mortality in patients submitted to RVS and RVA pacing during a longer follow-up. This a single-center, retrospective study analysis of consecutive patients submitted to pacemaker implantation. The primary outcome was defined as the occurrence of HF during follow-up. The secondary outcome was all-cause death. A total of 251 patients were included, 47 (18.7%) with RVS pacing. RVS pacing was associated to younger age, male gender, lower body mass index, ischemic heart disease, and atrial fibrillation. During a follow-up period of 5.2 years, the primary outcome occurred in 89 (37.1%) patients. RVS pacing was independently associated with a 3-fold lower risk of HF, after adjustment. The secondary outcome occurred in 83 (34.2%) patients, and pacemaker lead position was not a predictor. Fluoroscopy time and rate of complications (rarely life-threatening) were similar in both groups. Our study points to a potential clinical benefit of RVS positioning, with a 3.3-fold lower risk of HF, without accompanying increase in procedure complexity nor complication rate.

Clinical Determinants and Barriers to Cardiac Rehabilitation Enrollment of Patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction: A Single-Center Study in Portugal.

Despite cardiac rehabilitation (CR) being a recommended treatment for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), it is still underused. This study investigated the clinical determinants and barriers to enrollment in a CR program for HFrEF patients. We conducted a cohort study using the Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS) to assess the reason for non-enrollment. Of 214 HFrEF patients, 65% had not been enrolled in CR. Patients not enrolled in CR programs were older (63 vs. 58 years; p < 0.01) and were more likely to have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (20% vs. 5%; p < 0.01). Patients enrolled in CR were more likely to be treated with sacubitril/valsartan (34% vs. 19%; p = 0.01), mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (84% vs. 72%; p = 0.04), an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) (41% vs. 20%; p < 0.01), and cardiac resynchronization therapy (21% vs. 10%; p = 0.03). Multivariate analysis revealed that age (adjusted OR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01−1.07), higher education level (adjusted OR 3.31; 95% CI 1.63−6.70), stroke (adjusted OR 3.29; 95% CI 1.06−10.27), COPD (adjusted OR 4.82; 95% CI 1.53−15.16), and no ICD status (adjusted OR 2.68; 95% CI 1.36−5.26) were independently associated with CR non-enrollment. The main reasons for not being enrolled in CR were no medical referral (31%), concomitant medical problems (28%), patient refusal (11%), and geographical distance to the hospital (9%). Despite the relatively high proportion (35%) of HFrEF patients who underwent CR, the enrollment rate can be further improved. Innovative multi-level strategies addressing physicians' awareness, patients' comorbidities, and geographical issues should be pursued.

Platypnoea Orthodeoxia Syndrome and Patent Foramen Ovale Closure: Single-Centre Experience and Long-Term Follow-Up.

INTRODUCTION: Platypnoea orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) is an uncommon condition characterised by dyspnoea and arterial desaturation induced by an upright position and relieved in the supine position, usually due to a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Percutaneous closure of a PFO is the preferred treatment to cure POS. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and gasometrical characteristics and to describe the long-term outcomes of percutaneous PFO closure in a group of patients with POS. METHODS: Patients with POS and a PFO treated by percutaneous intervention from 2010-2020 were reviewed. The primary efficacy outcome was the arterial oxygen pressure to fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ratio before and 24 hours after the procedure. Total clinical success was considered if the arterial oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry (SpO2) improved to >94% in the supine and sitting positions without supplemental oxygen, while partial success was considered if SpO2 improved from baseline but still required oxygen to achieve >94%. Secondary outcomes were an absolute improvement in SpO2 and sense of dyspnoea, without significant residual shunt on transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) at follow-up. RESULTS: Of 168 patients undergoing PFO or atrial septal defect closure, 14 had POS (8.3%). Percutaneous PFO closure was successfully performed in all patients with a single device. Twelve of 14 patients had total clinical success (86%) and one patient had partial success. The PaO2/FiO2 ratio increased from 155.9±50.6 to 318.3±73.4 after PFO closure (p=0.002). All patients with total clinical success had a successful secondary efficacy outcome with an absolute improvement in SpO2 and complete resolution of dyspnoea, which was maintained at follow-up (37±20 months; range, 11 months to 6 years). None had a significant residual shunt between 12 and 24 months of follow-up. CONCLUSION: The PFO percutaneous closure was a successful, durable and safe method for patients presenting with POS; it achieved major improvements in both gasometrical parameters and quality of life.

Myocardial Bridging Leading to Cardiac Collapse in a Marathon Runner.

Myocardial bridging (MB) is a congenital coronary anomaly, which is defined as cardiac muscle overlying a portion of a coronary artery. Although traditionally considered benign in nature, increasing attention is being given to specific subsets of MB. Sports medicine recognizes MB as a cause of sudden death among young athletes. We present a case of a 30-year-old man who suddenly collapsed during a marathon running. Diagnostic workup with coronary computed tomography angiography revealed the presence of three simultaneous myocardial bridges in this patient, possibly explaining the exercise-induced syncope. The other diagnostic tests excluded seizures, cranioencephalic lesions, ionic or metabolic disturbances, acute coronary syndromes, cardiomyopathies, myocarditis, or conduction disturbances. Exertional syncope is a high-risk complaint in the marathon runner. In the context of intense physical activity, the increased sympathetic tone leading to tachycardia and increased myocardial contractility facilitates MB ischemia. In this illustrative case, the patient's syncope might probably be associated with an ischemia-induced arrhythmia secondary to MB and potentiated by dehydration in the context of prolonged stress (marathon running). In conclusion, this case highlights that MB may be associated with dangerous complications (myocardial ischemia and life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias), particularly during intense physical activity and in the presence of a long myocardial bridge.

Heart Failure Incidence Following ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) survivors have a heightened risk of developing heart failure (HF). The magnitude of this risk with the advent of primary percutaneous coronary intervention is less characterized. We aimed to examine the incidence and predictors of incident HF and all-cause mortality in a contemporary STEMI cohort. We performed a retrospective analysis of 700 consecutive patients with STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention at a tertiary hospital. The primary outcome was the occurrence of HF during follow-up. HF was defined by HF hospitalization or the presence of congestion that led to de novo prescription or up-titration of diuretics in the outpatient clinic. The secondary outcome was defined by the occurrence of HF or all-cause mortality. During a median follow-up period of 43.6 months, HF events occurred in 110 patients (15.7%), 34 (4.8%) managed as outpatient and 76 (10.9%) requiring hospitalization. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <50% was present in 76% of those who developed HF. Age (hazard ratio [HR] 1.03, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01 to 1.06), diabetes (HR 1.85, 95% CI 1.12 to 3.05), door-to-balloon time (HR 1.002, 95% CI 1.000 to 1.003), Killip-Kimball class ≥II (HR 2.24, 95% CI 1.32 to 3.80) and LVEF <50% (HR 1.71, 95% CI 1.01 to 2.92) were independent predictors. All-cause mortality incidence was 8.7%. HF was independently associated with a threefold increased risk of dying (HR 3.52, 95% CI 1.85 to 6.69, p <0.001). In conclusion, a substantial proportion of contemporary patients with STEMI develop HF, which triplicates the risk of dying. Older age, diabetes and LVEF <50% independently predicted the development of HF and all-cause death.

Lung function and stress echocardiography in pulmonary arterial hypertension: a cross-sectional study

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The mechanism of exercise limitation in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is not fully understood. The role of hemodynamic alterations is well recognized, but mechanical, ventilatory and gasometric factors may also contribute to reduction of exercise capacity in these individuals. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether there is an association between ventilatory pattern and stress Doppler echocardiography (SDE) variables in IPAH patients. DESIGN AND SETTING: Single-center prospective study conducted in a Brazilian university hospital. METHODS: We included 14 stable IPAH patients and 14 age and sex-matched controls. Volumetric capnography (VCap), spirometry, six-minute walk test and SDE were performed on both the patients and the control subjects. Arterial blood gases were collected only from the patients. The IPAH patients and control subjects were compared with regard to the abovementioned variables. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 38.4 years, and 78.6% were women. The patients showed hypocapnia, and in spirometry 42.9% presented forced vital capacity (FVC) below the lower limit of normality. In VCap, IPAH patients had higher respiratory rates (RR) and lower elimination of CO2 in each breath. There was a significant correlation between reduced FVC and the magnitude of increases in tricuspid regurgitation velocity (TRV). In IPAH patients, VCap showed similar tidal volumes and a higher RR, which at least partially explained the hypocapnia. CONCLUSIONS: The patients with IPAH showed hypocapnia, probably related to their higher respiratory rate with preserved tidal volumes; FVC was reduced and this reduction was positively correlated with cardiac output.

Hybrid Process of Adsorption/Coagulation/Ceramic MF for Removing Pesticides in Drinking Water Treatment-Inline vs. Contact Tank PAC Dosing.

Two pilot trials of powdered activated carbon (PAC)/(coagulation)/ceramic microfiltration were conducted to compare continuous 10-12 mg/L PAC inline dosing with 8-10 mg/L dosing to a 2 h-contact tank. Two low turbidity/low natural organic matter (NOM, total organic carbon <2 mg C/L) surface waters spiked with 7.2-10.3 µg/L total-pesticides were tested and the dosing options were compared towards operational performance, average removal of pesticides and NOM and costs. Removal differences between the two PAC dosing options depended on pesticides' amenability to adsorption and NOM characteristics (254 nm absorbance, A254). Waters containing low A254-absorbing NOM and only pesticides amenable to adsorption showed very high removals (all pesticides ≥93%) and no significant differences between the two PAC dosing options. Waters containing higher A254-absorbing NOM and high loads of pesticides less amenable to adsorption (dimethoate, bentazone) required higher inline PAC dose. Those or more severe conditions may require PAC doses higher than tested to comply with the Drinking Water Directive limits for pesticides. Cost analysis showed PAC inline dosing is more cost-effective than PAC dosing to the contact tank when identical PAC dose is sufficient or when the doses are low, even if 50% higher for inline dosing, and the plant is small.

Adsorption/Coagulation/Ceramic Microfiltration for Treating Challenging Waters for Drinking Water Production.

Pressurized powdered activated carbon/coagulation/ceramic microfiltration (PAC/Alum/MF) was investigated at pilot scale for treating low turbidity and low natural organic matter (NOM) surface waters spiked with organic microcontaminants. A total of 11 trials with clarified or non-clarified waters spiked with pesticides, pharmaceutical compounds, or microcystins were conducted to assess the removal of microcontaminants, NOM (as 254 nm absorbance, A254, and dissolved organic carbon, DOC), trihalomethane formation potential (THMFP), aerobic endospores as protozoan (oo)cysts indicators, bacteriophages as viruses indicators, and regular drinking water quality parameters. PAC/(Alum)/MF achieved 75% to complete removal of total microcontaminants with 4-18 mg/L of a mesoporous PAC and 2 h contact time, with a reliable particle separation (turbidity < 0.03 NTU) and low aluminium residuals. Microcontaminants showed different amenabilities to PAC adsorption, depending on their charge, hydrophobicity (Log Kow), polar surface area and aromatic rings count. Compounds less amenable to adsorption showed higher vulnerability to NOM competition (higher A254 waters), greatly benefiting from DOC-normalized PAC dose increase. PAC/Alum/MF also attained 29-47% NOM median removal, decreasing THMFP by 26%. PAC complemented NOM removal by coagulation (+15-19%), though with no substantial improvement towards THMFP and membrane fouling. Furthermore, PAC/Alum/MF was a full barrier against aerobic endospores, and PAC dosing was crucial for ≥1.1-log reduction in bacteriophages.

Assessing the applicability of a new carob waste-derived powdered activated carbon to control pharmaceutical compounds in wastewater treatment.

This paper assesses the applicability of a new carob waste-derived powdered activated carbon (PAC) obtained by steam activation for pharmaceutical compounds (PhCs) removal in urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) with activated sludge (AS) secondary treatment. The new carob-derived PAC presents chemical and textural properties similar to a high-performing commercial PAC produced from vegetable source by physical activation. The adsorption isotherms of three target PhCs, carbamazepine, diclofenac and sulfamethoxazole, spiked (at around 100 µg/L) in mixed liquor (ML) and in clarified-ML from the AS-bioreactor of a WWTP show: (i) minor reduction of PAC capacity with real MLs compared to clarified MLs; (ii) the higher the PhC hydrophobicity, the higher the PAC adsorption capacity in both water matrices; (iii) hydrophobic interactions probably overweight electrostatic interactions between the PhCs and the slightly positively charged PAC in these real water matrices with background organics and inorganics. The PhC adsorption results with ML and clarified-ML are used to calibrate the IAST-based tracer model (TRM) and predict the new PAC performance when added to AS-bioreactor vs. in post-secondary treatment, at the PhC naturally-occurring trace concentrations. The modelling projections show (i) one needs higher PAC doses than those reported in the literature, particularly in post-treatment, and (ii) the benefits of PAC dosing to the bioreactor, with only a slightly higher PAC dose being needed when compared to its post-secondary dosing and minimising the capital investment.
