RESUMO

BACKGROUND: After an emergent surgery for type A acute aortic syndrome, medical management is based on optimal blood pressure (BP) control. We assessed the prognostic significance of BP monitoring and its relationship with aortic morphology following type A acute aortic syndrome. METHODS: The data of 120 patients who underwent BP monitoring after a type A acute aortic syndrome from January 2005 to June 2016 were retrospectively collected. The first CT angiogram performed after surgery was used for the morphological analysis. RESULTS: The population included 79 males, with an overall mean age of 60 ± 12 years. Seven patients (5.8%) died during a median follow-up of 5.5 years. The median delay between BP monitoring and discharge was 3 (1-5) months. The mean 24-hour BP of the cohort was 127/73 mm Hg ± 10/17. During follow-up, different parameters of BP monitoring were not associated with the risk of aortic events. However, the diameter of the false lumen of the descending thoracic aorta was the best predictor associated with the risk of new aortic events during follow-up, particularly for the threshold of 28 mm or more (P < .001; Hazard ratio 4.7[2.7-8.2]). The diameter of the false lumen was associated with night-time systolic BP (P = .025; r = .2), 24-hour pulse pressure (P = .002; r = .28), and night-time pulse pressure (P = .008; r = .24). CONCLUSION: The risk of new aortic events following type A acute aortic syndrome is associated with the size of the residual false lumen, but not directly with BP parameters. Night-time BP parameters are associated with the size of the residual false lumen.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate, in patients with acute type B aortic dissection, the results of medical and endovascular treatment in a large single centre experience and to investigate the clinical and imaging features on presentation that relate to poor outcome. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected clinical and CT imaging data. Consecutive patients (136) with acute type B aortic dissection were included in the study over an 11 year period. The characteristics of patients receiving endovascular (complicated) or medical treatment (uncomplicated) were compared. Kaplan-Meier estimators were used to estimate cumulative overall survival and survival free of aortic events. Factors associated with overall and aortic event free survival were also explored using Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS: The mean follow up was 51 months (1-132), during which time 33 deaths and 48 aortic events occurred. At one and five years, overall survival was 94.0% and 74.8%, respectively, and freedom from aortic events was 75.6% and 58.7%. There was no difference in all cause survival and aortic event free survival at one and five years between the patients treated endovascularly and those receiving medical treatment alone. Risk analysis for aortic events demonstrated the maximum size of the proximal entry tear, the maximum thoracic aortic diameter, and the thoracic aortic false lumen maximum diameter to have a significant effect on the incidence of aortic events. CONCLUSIONS: Active management of patients with type B aortic dissection results in good long-term survival even in the presence of features traditionally associated with adverse outcomes. All patients require close lifetime surveillance as aortic events continue to occur during follow up even after endografting.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: To evaluate results of the invasive repair in the management of acute aortic dissection (AoD) in France. METHODS: Patients admitted to hospital with acute AoD from 2012 to 2018 were identified. Patient demographics, severity score at admission, treatment strategy and in-hospital mortality were described. For patients undergoing intervention, perioperative complications rate was reported. A secondary analysis evaluating patients' outcome as regards of the annual caseload per center was conducted. RESULTS: Overall, 14,706 patients with acute AoD were identified (male 64%, mean age 67, median modified Elixhauser score 5). The overall incidence increased during the study period (from 3.8 in 2012 to 4.4/100,000 in 2018) associated with a North-South gradient (respectively 3.6 vs. 4.7/100,000) and a winter peak; 45.5% (N.=6697) of patients received medical treatment alone. Among those with invasive repair, 6276 (78.3%) were defined as type A AoD (TAAD), whereas type B AoD (TBAD) accounted for 1733 patients (21.7%), of whom 1632 (94%) had TEVAR and 101 (6%) had other arterial procedures; 30-day mortality was respectively 18.9% in TAAD and 9.5% for TBAD. In high-volume centers (i.e. >20 AoD/year), a lower 3-month mortality of 22.3% was noted compared to 31.4% in the low-volume centres (P<0.001); 47% of patients reported ≥1 early major complication. TEVAR exhibited less complication (P<0.001) compared to other arterial reconstructions in TBAD. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of acute AoD increased in France over the period of the study and was associated with stable postoperative early mortality. Early postoperative mortality is significantly reduced in high-volume centers.

RESUMO

AIMS: We assessed reverse dipping influence on the risk of lower limb events in type 2 diabetic patients without peripheral arterial disease. METHODS: Patients with type 2 diabetes addressed for cardiovascular risk stratification in our university hospital from 2008 to 2012 underwent 24 h blood pressure monitoring. Patients with a prior history of limb revascularization or with a stenosis > 50% of the legs were excluded. Reverse dipping was defined as a greater night-versus day-time systolic blood pressure. The endpoint was the first occurrence of lower limb revascularization or limb amputation. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using the Cox model. RESULTS: Two hundred and eighty-one patients were included. During a median follow-up of 9.4 [7.7-10.6] years, 20 lower limb events and 45 all-cause deaths were observed. Thirty-five patients were reverse dippers. The reverse dipping status was associated with lower limb events when considering all-cause death as a competitive risk, (HR 3.61 [1.16-11.2], P = 0.026). Reverse dipping, HbA1C and proteinuria were independently associated with lower limb outcome in a multivariable analysis (respectively HR 4.09 [1.29-12.9], P = 0.017, HR 1.30 [1.04-1.63], P = 0.022 and HR 1.06 [1.02-1.11], P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Reverse dipping status is independently associated with worse limb outcome in type 2 diabetic patients.

RESUMO

The renal resistive index has been demonstrated to predict the progression of renal disease and recurrence of major cardiac events in high-risk cardiovascular patients, in addition to other comorbidities. We aimed to assess the prognostic significance of the renal resistive index in type 2 diabetic patients for primary prevention. From 2008 to 2011, patients with type 2 diabetes underwent cardiovascular evaluation, including renal resistive index assessment by renal Doppler ultrasound. The incidence of all-cause death, cardiovascular events, dialysis requirement or a twofold increase in creatinine was recorded. Survival curves were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Two hundred sixty-six patients were included; 50% of the patients were men, an HbA1C level of 8.1 ± 1.7% (65 ± 13.6 mmol/mol) and a serum creatinine level of 8 [7-9] mg/L. The mean 24-hour systolic blood pressure, 24-hour diastolic blood pressure, and 24-hour pulse pressure were 133.4 ± 16.7, 76.5 ± 9.4, and 56.9 ± 12.4 mm Hg, respectively. The median renal resistive index was 0.7 [0.6-0.7] with a threshold of 0.7 predictive of monitored events. After adjustment of the 24-hour pulse pressure, age and 24-hour heart rate, a renal resistive index ≥0.70 remained associated with all-cause death (hazard ratio: 3.23 (1.16-8.98); P = .025) and the composite endpoint of major clinical events (hazard ratio: 2.37 (1.34-4.18); P = .003). An elevated renal resistive index with a threshold of 0.7 is an independent predictor of a first cardiovascular or renal event in type 2 diabetic patients. This simple index should be implemented in the multiparametric staging of diabetes.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Assessment of cardiovascular risk in women is specific and hormonal factors should be considered to avoid its underestimation. So far, studies on this issue are lacking and the impact of reproductive factors on cardiovascular risk has yet to be determined. We study the association between reproductive factors and carotid atherosclerosis, a non-invasive marker of cardiovascular diseases, in post-menopause. STUDY DESIGN: In this cross-sectional study, data were analyzed from post-menopausal women with at least one cardiovascular risk factor followed through a dedicated healthcare pathway at the Lille University Hospital between January 1st, 2013 and December 31st, 2016. MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURES: The primary outcome was the presence of plaque or stenosis at carotid ultrasound. RESULTS: We included 370 post-menopausal women with a mean age of 63.4 ± 0.5 years. Carotid atherosclerosis was found in 161 (43,3%) women. Women with 3 or more children had higher odds of having carotid atherosclerosis than women with fewer than 3 children after adjustment for age, OR 1,69 [CI 95% 1,09-2,61], p = 0,019, and after further adjustment for anthropometric measures, traditional cardiovascular risk factors and pregnancy-related complications: OR 1,65 [CI 95% 1,05-2,62], p = 0,031. No other reproductive factor was significantly associated with carotid atherosclerosis. CONCLUSIONS: A higher parity was associated with higher odds of carotid atherosclerosis independently of age, traditional risk factors, anthropometric measures and gestational diseases among post-menopausal women at risk of cardiovascular diseases. This suggests the importance of considering the number of children when assessing cardiovascular risk in women.

RESUMO

Ambulatory blood pressure (BP) measurement (ABPM) is recommended to assess optimal BP control, and we studied its influence after an acute type B aortic dissection (ATBAD). We retrospectively collected data from 111 patients with ATBAD from January 2004 to September 2014. Controlled BP group was defined according to a 24-hour BP under 130/80 mm Hg during chronic phase. The population consisted of 85 men, with a mean age of 61 ± 13 years and mean body mass index of 28 ± 6 kg/m2. The median delay between ambulatory BP measurement and ATBAD was 2 (0.3 to 4) months. The mean 24-hour BP of the entire population was 124/71 ± 15/8.8 mm Hg. BP was not controlled in 41 patients (37%). The treatment score at discharge was 3.9 ± 1.4. The mean glomerular filtration rate was 83 ± 28 ml/min/1.73 m2, with no difference between groups. Visceral stent implantation in the acute phase (odds ratio [OR] 3.857 [1.199 to 12.406], p = 0.023), higher left ventricular ejection fraction (OR 1.092 [1.005 to 1.187], p = 0.038), and higher platelet count at discharge (OR 1.064 [1.018 to 1.112], p = 0.006) were identified as predictors of good BP control by multivariate analysis. The analysis showed that nighttime systolic BP was associated with aortic events during follow-up (hazard ratio [HR] 5.2 [1.01 to 27.2], p = 0.049), particularly for a threshold of 124 mm Hg or more (HR 1.967 [1.052 to 3.678], p = 0.0341). Nighttime pulse pressure showed also its significance (HR 20.1 [1.4 to 282.7], p = 0.026). In conclusion, subclinical renal malperfusion revascularization seems to improve BP control. A greater nighttime systolic BP was associated with the risk of new aortic events during follow-up.

RESUMO

Preeclampsia is a specific risk factor chronic of hypertension, of coronary events (Ray et al., 2005), of stroke (Brown et al., 2006), of chronic renal failure (Kattah and Garovic, 2005; McDonald et al., 2003; Williams, 2003) and a specific risk factor of cardio-cerebrovascular mortality (Magnussen et al., 2009). According to Magnusson et al. (2009), the relative long-term risk of developing hypertension is multiplied by 4; the risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome multiplied by 3; the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke multiplied by 2. Cardiovascular risk is particularly important when pregnancy was complicated by maternal and fetal events or occurring precociously (Williams, 2003; Newstead et al., 2007). Early PE is associated with a relative risk of death by 7 of CV disease. Several pathophysiological factors are common between CV disease and preeclampsia: endothelial dysfunction, hypertension, obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and CV heredity. Metabolic syndrome could be the link between preeclampsia and CV disease. Hypertension in pregnancy and preeclampsia could unmask metabolic syndrome "latent" existing (Silva et al., 2008). Recently, scientific societies have published guidelines dedicated to cardiovascular risk in women and for the prevention of stroke in women. They recognize hypertension in pregnancy and preeclampsia as specific emerging risk (Mosca et al., 2011; European Society of Gynecology et al., 2011; Bushnell et al., 2014). Paradoxically, information and prevention of these women at risk is insufficient to ignorance and lack of awareness among health professionals (Brown et al., 2013). The education of women has become a major issue of prevention, developing specific consultation after delivery, encouraging them to optimize their lifestyle with a coordinated follow-up (Newstead et al., 2007; Mosca et al., 2011; European Society of Gynecology et al., 2011; Bushnell et al., 2014, Harskamp and Zeeman, 2007). In the end, the implementation of structured care pathway, further monitoring of these women, aims to improve the practices of health professionals (Manten et al., 2007; Adams et al., 2014; Mounier-Vehier et al., 2014).
