OBJECTIVE Evaluate if bariatric surgery can improve hypertension (HPT) control leading to both reduction of blood pressure values and antihypertensive therapy withdrawal. METHODS Eight-hundred and sixty-four consecutive patients who referred to our hospital, from March 2001 to February 2011, because of morbid obesity were initially enrolled in this retrospective study. To obtain two comparable groups, propensity-matching was applied. Finally, the study included 444 (51% out of initial 864 patients), 222 on diet (group D) and 222 patients undergoing surgery (group S). RESULTS In group D, sistolic blook pressure (SBP) showed a significant increase (135 ± 14 vs 138 ± 11 mmHg; P = 0.006); conversely in group S, SBP decreased (130 ± 14 vs 124 ± 9 mmHg; P = 0.001). In group D, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) showed a significant increase (80 ± 6 vs 82 ± 6 mmHg; P = 0.004); conversely in group S, DBP decreased (81 ± 9 vs 79 ± 8 mmHg; P = 0.015). Among 136 patients with HPT, 73 (53%) withdrew antihypertensive therapy: significantly more in group S (55/63, 87%) than in group D (17/56, 23%), P

- Abstract
Purpose: 3D echocardiography (3DE) enables fast 3D acquisition but subsequent manual navigation to find 2D diagnostic planes can be time consuming. We have developed and validated an automated machine learning-based technique to find apical 2-, 3- and 4-chamber (A2C, A3C, A4C) views that enables fast volume navigation and analysis. Methods: 3DE volumes were acquired (Philips iE33: X3-1 and X5-1 probes) from 30 healthy volunteers and 36 clinical patients with suspected valve disease and coronary heart disease. 66 end diastolic volumes were used to assess the accuracy of apical standard view finding by our method against manual plane finding. To do this, dedicated software was developed with a machine learning approach and a 3-fold cross validation of results was performed. Results: Automatic A4C view detection was possible in 60/66 (91%) of volumes; detection failures were due to suboptimal myocardium wall integrity or lack of right ventricle in the scan. A2C and A3C views were extracted from the A4C view using the known geometrical relationships between apical standard views (A2C to A3C: 30°~40° and A2C to A4C: 90° of rotation over the left ventricle long axis, as shown in the Figure). In average, our method accurately found the heart apex and mitral valve centre with a 7.1 ± 5.7 mm and 7.2 ± 5.3 mm error, respectively. Conclusions: In order to automate clinical workflow, we have developed a new and fully automatic machine learning strategy for apical standard view finding which performed well (91% detection accuracy) on volunteer and clinical 3D echocardiograms.

- Abstract
Clinical PET acquisitions of the heart suffer from artefacts and drops in image quality due to the poor spatial resolution of the PET system. Moreover, cardiac PET images are further degraded by the blur caused by the breathing and beating motions, thus hampering diagnosis and evaluation of myocardial pathologies. Anatomy-enhanced PET reconstruction, using a high-resolution CT, has proven useful in brain imaging. In cardiac datasets however, due to the motion artefacts, the application of any restoring technique on datasets affected by motion blur needs to be preceded by the validation of the proposed method on realistic static datasets. In this work, the validation is performed using static cardiac ex vivo datasets obtained from a number of sacrificed sheep, scanned on a clinical PET/CT scanner. The aim of this work is to assess the effectiveness of reconstructions of the acquired datasets with different CT-based anatomical priors, in comparison to reconstructions currently applied in clinical practise. The gold standard to which all reconstructions are compared consists of images of the same hearts scanned on a small-animal PET scanner, whose high spatial resolution allows for almost artefact-free images. Encouraging results were obtained so far, with improvements in volume delineation and uniformity of activity values when anatomical information was used. Fig 1 shows the gold standard image (left) compared to a regular clinical reconstruction (middle) and to a reconstruction using the high-resolution CT as anatomical information (right).

- Abstract
Objective: Evaluate if bariatric surgery can improve hypertension (HPT) control leading to both reduction of blood pressure values and antihypertensive therapy withdrawal., Methods: Eight-hundred and sixty-four consecutive patients who referred to our hospital, from March 2001 to February 2011, because of morbid obesity were initially enrolled in this retrospective study. To obtain two comparable groups, propensity-matching was applied. Finally, the study included 444 (51% out of initial 864 patients), 222 on diet (group D) and 222 patients undergoing surgery (group S)., Results: In group D, sistolic blook pressure (SBP) showed a significant increase (135 ± 14 vs 138 ± 11 mmHg; P = 0.006); conversely in group S, SBP decreased (130 ± 14 vs 124 ± 9 mmHg; P = 0.001). In group D, diastolic blood pressure (DBP) showed a significant increase (80 ± 6 vs 82 ± 6 mmHg; P = 0.004); conversely in group S, DBP decreased (81 ± 9 vs 79 ± 8 mmHg; P = 0.015). Among 136 patients with HPT, 73 (53%) withdrew antihypertensive therapy: significantly more in group S (55/63, 87%) than in group D (17/56, 23%), P < 0.001. The median weight loss was significantly higher in group S than in group D at 6 months [4 (3-7) vs 15 (10-20)], 12 months [6 (4-9) vs 19 (12-28)] and 18 months [6 (2-10) vs 20 (13-32)]. Loss of weight is greater in the subgroup with HPT having surgery., Conclusion: Bariatric surgery is effective to improve SBP and DBP and leads to therapy withdrawal in obese patients; these changes are directly related to the amount of weight loss.
