Dataset related to the article "Impact of oxidative stress and protein S-Glutathionylation in aortic valve sclerosis patients with overt atherosclerosis

<p>This record contains raw data related to the article &quot;Impact of oxidative stress and protein S-Glutathionylation in aortic valve sclerosis patients with overt atherosclerosis&quot;</p> <p>Abstract: Aortic valve sclerosis (AVSc) is characterized by non-uniform thickening of the leaflets without hemodynamic changes. Endothelial dysfunction, also caused by dysregulation of glutathione homeostasis expressed as ratio between its reduced (GSH) and its oxidised form (GSSG), could represent one of the pathogenic triggers of AVSc. We prospectively enrolled 58 patients with overt atherosclerosis and requiring coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The incidence of AVSc in the studied population was 50%. The two groups (No-AVSc and AVSc) had similar clinical characteristics. Pre-operatively, AVSc group showed significantly lower GSH/GSSG ratio than No-AVSc group (<em>p</em>&nbsp;= 0.02). Asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) concentration was significantly higher in AVSc patients compared to No-AVSc patients (<em>p</em>&nbsp;&lt; 0.0001). Explanted sclerotic aortic valves presented a significantly increased protein glutathionylation (Pr-SSG) than No-AVSc ones (<em>p</em>&nbsp;= 0.01). In vitro, inhibition of glutathione reductase caused &beta;-actin glutathionylation, activation of histone 2AX, upregulation of &alpha;2 smooth muscle actin (<em>ACTA2</em>), downregulation of platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (<em>PECAM1</em>) and cadherin 5 (<em>CDH5</em>). In this study, we showed for the first time that the dysregulation of glutathione homeostasis is associated with AVSc. We found that Pr-SSG is increased in AVSc leaflets and it could lead to EndMT via DNA damage. Further studies are warranted to elucidate the causal role of Pr-SSG in aortic valve degeneration</p>

PMID: 30919906.</p> <p>This is the abstract:</p> <p><strong>Objectives:&nbsp;</strong>Tricuspid valve (TV) surgery in the adult with congenital heart disease (ACHD) is a frequently performed procedure. The aim of this study was to analyse postoperative and medium-term outcomes.</p> <p><strong>Methods:&nbsp;</strong>We conducted a single-centre retrospective study of patients with ACHD who underwent TV surgery (January 2000-December 2016); patients with Ebstein&#39;s anomalies were excluded. Operative and clinical records were reviewed. Outcomes considered were survival, grade of insufficiency/stenosis and TV reoperation at follow-up.</p> <p><strong>Results:&nbsp;</strong>A total of 128 patients with ACHD had TV surgery for functional regurgitation (n = 95), dysplasia (n = 23) and systemic TV (n = 10). Median age was 40.8 years [interquartile range (IQR) 25.3]; 55.5% were men. Preoperative regurgitation was classified as mild (n = 8), moderate (n = 47) and severe (n = 70). The TV was repaired in 109 as follows: ring annuloplasty (n = 43), de Vega annuloplasty (n = 29), Wooler annuloplasty (n = 13), commissural plasty (n = 9), Kay annuloplasty (n = 7) and others (n = 8). The TV was replaced in 19 patients with biological (n = 10) and mechanical (n = 9) prostheses. The median hospital stay was 12 days (IQR 10). The overall mortality rate was 8.6% (n = 11): 2 hospital deaths (1.6%) and 9 late deaths. Survival was 93% [95% confidence interval (CI) 85-97%] at 5 years and 83% (95% CI 70-91%) at 10 years. The median follow-up period was 4.95 years (IQR 7.7) with 1 TV reoperation. Echocardiographic assessment showed &ge;moderate regurgitation in 34 (34.3%) patients. Suture plasty had a significantly higher incidence of TV regurgitation &ge;moderate compared to ring annuloplasty (48.9% vs 26.3%; P = 0.033).</p> <p><strong>Conclusions:&nbsp;</strong>TV surgery in the ACHD is frequently associated with other main procedures. Stabilizing the TV annulus with a prosthetic ring guarantees lower recurrence of moderate to severe regurgitation compared to suture plasty repair.</p>

Dataset related to the article "Multimodality imaging assessment of mitral annular disjunction in mitral valve prolapse"

<p>This record contains raw data related to the article &quot;Multimodality imaging assessment of mitral annular disjunction in mitral valve prolapse&quot;.</p> <p><strong>Objective </strong>Mitral annular disjunction (MAD) is an abnormality linked to mitral valve prolapse (MVP), possibly associated with malignant ventricular arrhythmias. We assessed the agreement among different imaging techniques for MAD identification and measurement.</p> <p><strong>Methods </strong>131 patients with MVP and significant mitral regurgitation undergoing transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) were retrospectively enrolled. Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) was available in 106 patients. MAD was evaluated in standard long-axis views (four-chamber, two-chamber, three-chamber) by each technique.</p> <p><strong>Results </strong>Considering any-length MAD, MAD prevalence was 17.3%, 25.5%, 42.0% by TTE, TOE and CMR, respectively (p&lt;0.05). The agreement on MAD identification was moderate between TTE and CMR (&kappa;=0.54, 95% CI 0.49 to 0.59) and good between TOE and CMR (&kappa;=0.79, 95% CI 0.74 to 0.84). Assuming CMR as reference and according to different cut-off values for MAD (&ge;2 mm, &ge;4 mm, &ge;6 mm), specificity (95% CI) of TTE and TOE was 99.6 (99.0 to 100.0)% and 98.7 (97.4 to 100.0)%; 99.3 (98.4 to 100.0)% and 97.6 (95.8 to 99.4)%; 97.8 (96.2 to 99.3)% and 93.2 (90.3 to 96.1)%, respectively; sensitivity (95% CI) was 43.1 (37.8 to 48.4)% and 74.5 (69.4 to 79.5)%; 54.0 (48.7 to 59.3)% and 88.9 (85.2 to 92.5)%; 88.0 (84.5 o 91.5)% and 100.0 (100.0 to 100.0)%, respectively. MAD length was 8.0 (7.0-10.0), 7.0 (5.0-8.0], 5.0 (4.0-7.0) mm, respectively by TTE, TOE and CMR. Agreement on MAD measurement was moderate between TTE and CMR (&rho;=0.73) and strong between TOE and CMR (&rho;=0.86).</p> <p><strong>Conclusions </strong>An integrated imaging approach could be necessary for a comprehensive assessment of patients with MVP and symptoms suggestive for arrhythmias. If echocardiography is fundamental for the anatomic and haemodynamic characterisation of the MV disease, CMR may better identify small length MAD as well as myocardial fibrosis.</p>

Epub ahead of print. PMID: 32804291.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>This is the abstract:</p> <p>Congenital bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) consists of two fused cusps and represents a major risk factor for calcific valvular stenosis. Herein, a fully coupled fluid-structure interaction (FSI) BAV model was developed from patient-specific magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and compared against in vivo 4-dimensional flow MRI (4D Flow). FSI simulation compared well with 4D Flow, confirming direction and magnitude of the flow jet impinging onto the aortic wall as well as location and extension of secondary flows and vortices developing at systole: the systolic flow jet originating from an elliptical 1.6 cm<sup>2</sup> orifice reached a peak velocity of 252.2 cm/s, 0.6% lower than 4D Flow, progressively impinging on the ascending aorta convexity. The FSI model predicted a peak flow rate of 22.4 L/min, 6.7% higher than 4D Flow, and provided BAV leaflets mechanical and flow-induced shear stresses, not directly attainable from MRI. At systole, the ventricular side of the non-fused leaflet revealed the highest wall shear stress (WSS) average magnitude, up to 14.6 Pa along the free margin, with WSS progressively decreasing towards the belly. During diastole, the aortic side of the fused leaflet exhibited the highest diastolic maximum principal stress, up to 322 kPa within the attachment region. Systematic comparison with ground-truth non-invasive MRI can improve the computational model ability to reproduce native BAV hemodynamics and biomechanical response more realistically, and shed light on their role in BAV patients&#39; risk for developing complications; this approach may further contribute to the validation of advanced FSI simulations designed to assess BAV biomechanics.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Dataset related to the article 'Diagnostic Accuracy of Transillumination in Mitral Valve Prolapse: Side-by-Side Comparison of Standard Transthoracic Three-Dimensional Echocardiography against Surgical Findings'

<p>This record contains raw data related to the article &#39;Diagnostic Accuracy of Transillumination in Mitral Valve Prolapse: Side-by-Side Comparison of Standard Transthoracic Three-Dimensional Echocardiography against Surgical Findings&#39;</p> <p>In patients with mitral valve (MV) prolapse (MVP) eligible for surgery, three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) is routinely used for pre-operative assessment. Despite the worldwide use of transesophageal echocardiography in this context, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) allows accurate noninvasive evaluation of MV anatomy and pathology in patients with good acoustic windows. Transillumination (TI) is a new 3D tool that improves the visualization of cardiac structures due to shadow effects achieved by the use of a virtual light source. We aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy of TTE TI side-by-side with standard 3DE (s3DE) display in patients undergoing surgery for MVP, using surgical valve inspection as a reference standard.</p> <p>We prospectively studied 59 patients with good acoustic windows on TTE, undergoing surgery for MVP. The study was approved by the institutional review board with a written informed consent. 3D MV analysis, including evaluation of scallops, chordal rupture and cleft was performed using s3DE and TI. Data were acquired by two experienced operators using zoomed acquisition mode over 4 to 6 cardiac cycles and processed by adjusting gain, brightness and smoothing. For TI images, the virtual light source was set in the left ventricle to enhance MV visualization. At the end of each TTE study, a first reader analyzed post-processed s3DE images and, one week later, the TI images. Surgical findings of MV anatomy were collected and agreement was expressed using Cohen&rsquo;s concordance coefficient kappa, sensitivity, specificity, negative and positive predictive value (NPV, PPV) and overall accuracy. A second reader, blinded to all prior measurements, repeated TI analysis to assess reproducibility using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC).&nbsp;</p> <p>No differences were noted in etiological diagnosis (Myxomatous vs Fibroelastic Deficiency) between the two 3DE techniques and surgery. Based on s3DE, 53 patients (90%) were diagnosed with P<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;flail secondary to chordal rupture (N=51, 86%) or elongation (N=2, 14%). A cleft was diagnosed in 10 cases (17%), mostly located in the posterior leaflet. Based on TI, 53 patients (88%) were diagnosed with P<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;flail secondary to chordal rupture (N=48, 81%) or elongation (N=5, 19%). In 9 patients (15%) a cleft was found, mainly located in the posterior leaflet.</p> <p>The reproducibility of TI was good for prolapse detection (ICC=0.78) and chordal rupture localization (ICC= 0.73) and fair for cleft identification (ICC= 0.66). Overall, compared to the surgical reference, TI was significantly more accurate than s3DE for the identification of prolapse (94% vs 89%), chordal rupture (98% vs 92%) and cleft localization (87% vs 54%).</p> <p>Specifically, s3DE correctly detected the flail in the majority of patients (N=57, 97%); in 20 patients (34%), at least one scallop was erroneously diagnosed as prolapsing, while in 4 patients (7%), a second prolapsing scallop was missed by s3DE. In 2 cases (3%) the real flail was missed. Agreement between s3DE and surgery in prolapse identification was poor (kappa=0.30).&nbsp;&nbsp;By TI, the flail was correctly diagnosed in 57 cases (97%), while in 7 patients (12%) there was an over-diagnosis and in 4 cases (7%) an under-diagnosis. In 1 patient (2%), the flail was missed by TI. The agreement between TI and surgery in prolapse detection was considerably better (kappa=0.60). A significant difference (p&lt;0.05) was found between s3DE and TI in sensitivity (87% vs 91%), specificity (92% vs 97%), PPV (75% vs 87%) and NPV (96% vs 98%) in scallop&rsquo;s prolapse identification.</p> <p>Chordal rupture was diagnosed in 51 patients (86%) by s3DE, compared to 45 (76%) cases confirmed by surgery. Among these 45 patients, s3DE correctly identified rupture position in 41 (91%). The agreement between s3DE and surgery was moderate (kappa=0.43). In contrast, TI identified chordal rupture in 48 cases (81%); among 45 patients confirmed by surgery TI detected the correct rupture position in 44 (98%), resulting in a very good agreement (kappa=0.86). Compared to s3DE, TI showed a significant difference (p&lt;0.05) in sensitivity (89% vs 98%), specificity (95% vs 99%), PPV (74% vs 94%) and NPV (96% vs 99%) in chordal rupture recognition.</p> <p>The agreement with surgery in terms of localization of cleft by s3DE was poor (k=0.17). Surgical valve inspection reported 8 cases (14%) with MV cleft (2 cleft of the anterior leaflet and 6 indentations of the posterior leaflet), only one was correctly diagnosed by s3DE, mainly due to signal drop-out. Concordance between TI and surgery in cleft localization was good (kappa=0.67); TI correctly diagnosed 6 out of 8 clefts. For cleft identification, sensitivity (13% vs 75%), specificity (96% vs 99%), PPV (10% vs 67%), and NPV (97% vs 99%) were significantly better (p&lt;0.05) for TI compared to s3DE.</p> <p>Based on our results, in patients undergoing surgery for MVP, TI has the potential to improve the diagnostic accuracy of TTE in anatomical analysis of the MV compared to s3DE, and may thus contribute towards improved personalized presurgical planning.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Dataset related to the article "Rest and exercise oxygen uptake and cardiac output changes 6 months after successful transcatheter mitral valve repair"

<p><strong>Aims:&nbsp;</strong>Changes in peak exercise oxygen uptake (VO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;) and cardiac output (CO) 6 months after successful percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair (pMVR) in severe primary (PMR) and functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) patients are unknown. The aim of the study was to assess the efficacy of pMVR at rest by echocardiography, VO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;and CO (inert gas rebreathing) measurement and during cardiopulmonary exercise test with CO measurement.</p> <p><strong>Methods and results:&nbsp;</strong>We evaluated 145 and 115 patients at rest and 98 and 66 during exercise before and after pMVR, respectively. After successful pMVR, significant reductions in MR and NYHA class were observed in FMR and PMR patients. Cardiac ultrasound showed reverse remodelling (left ventricular end-diastolic volume from 158 &plusmn; 63 mL to 147 &plusmn; 64, P &lt; 0.001; ejection fraction from 51 &plusmn; 15 to 48 &plusmn; 14, P &lt; 0.001; pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) from 43 &plusmn; 13 to 38 &plusmn; 8 mmHg, P &lt; 0.001) in the entire population. These changes were significant in PMR (n = 62) and a trend in FMR (n = 53), except for PASP, which decreased in both groups. At rest, CO and stroke volume (SV) increased in FMR with a concomitant reduction in arteriovenous O<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;content difference [&Delta;C(a-v)O<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;]. Peak exercise, CO and SV increased significantly in both groups (CO from 5.5 &plusmn; 1.4 L/min to 6.3 &plusmn; 1.5 and from 6.2 &plusmn; 2.4 to 6.7 &plusmn; 2.0, SV from 57 &plusmn; 19 mL to 66 &plusmn; 20 and from 62 &plusmn; 20 to 69 &plusmn; 20, in FMR and PMR, respectively), whereas peak VO<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;was unchanged and &Delta;C(a-v)O<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;decreased.</p> <p><strong>Conclusions:&nbsp;</strong>These data confirm pMVR-induced clinical improvement and reverse ventricular remodelling at a 6-month analysis and show, in spite of an increase in CO, an unchanged exercise performance, which is achieved through a &#39;more physiological&#39; blood flow distribution and O<sub>2</sub>&nbsp;extraction behaviour. Direct rest and exercise CO should be measured to assess pMVR efficacy.</p> <p><strong>Keywords:&nbsp;</strong>Cardiac output; Exercise; Oxygen uptake; Percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair; Transcatheter mitral valve repair.</p>

Three virtual simulation models of aortic root with increasing index of eccentricity (0-0.25-0.5) were implemented. Stress distribution, stent-root contact area and paravalvular orifice area were computed.</p> <p><strong>Results:&nbsp;</strong>Device success was achieved in 43/56 patients (77%) with comparable rates among Lotus (87%), Evolut-R (60%) and ACURATE neo (86%; P = 0.085). Moderate paravalvular leak rate was significantly lower in the Lotus group as compared to Evolut-R group (0% vs 30%; P = 0.027) and comparable to the ACURATE neo group (0% vs 10%; P = 0.33). By index of eccentricity = 0.5, Lotus showed a uniform and symmetric pattern of stress distribution with absent paravalvular orifice area, ACURATE neo showed a mild asymmetry with small paravalvular orifice area (1.1 mm2), whereas a severely asymmetric pattern was evident with Evolut-R, resulting in a large paravalvular orifice area (12.0 mm2).</p> <p><strong>Conclusions:&nbsp;</strong>Transcatheter aortic valve replacement in bicuspid aortic valve patients with new-generation devices showed comparable device success rates. Lotus showed moderate paravalvular leak rate comparable to that of ACURATE neo and significantly lower than Evolut-R. On simulation, Lotus and ACURATE neo showed optimal adaptability to elliptic anatomies as compared to Evolut-R.</p>
