- Abstract
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is not merely a temporary condition, but a harbinger of type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and atherosclerotic disease. We examined the effect of GDM on cardiac diastolic function. Methods: Diastolic function was evaluated by serial Doppler echocardiography with pulsed tissue Doppler imaging in 13 patients with GDM and 13 healthy pregnant women (control group) during the third trimester of pregnancy and after 8 weeks postpartum. Diagnostic criteria for GDM were those as recommended by the American Diabetes Association. Exclusion criteria were any disease or condition that could interfere with diastolic function. Measurements at both times in each group were compared by paired t tests and changes of patients with diabetes were compared with those in control patients by unpaired t tests. Results: There were no differences in age, left ventricular mass, or systolic function between groups. The Doppler parameters that showed significant difference between groups were higher atrial contraction wave (A wave) (P = .008) and lower rapid filling wave (E)/A ratio (P = .006) in diabetic group, on both occasions. Tissue Doppler parameters showed a significant decrease in Em (P = .002) and early mitral annulus velocity (Em)/late mitral annulus velocity (Am) (P = .008) in diabetic group on both occasions, and the Am wave remained increased only in the diabetic group at postpartum. Conclusions: Patients with GDM showed a different diastolic function profile, suggesting a mild degree of diastolic abnormality. The persistence of some abnormalities postpartum corroborates our hypothesis of an early cardiovascular involvement in this group, enhancing the need of a close cardiovascular follow-up of these patients.

- 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
Introduction: Strokes are traditionally attributed to risk factors like aging, hypertension, diabetes, and atherosclerosis. Chagas disease has emerged as an important risk factor for stroke in Latin American. Our study aims at describing the largest cohort of patients with Chagas disease and ischemic stroke and determining variables associated with stroke recurrence and cardioembolic cause., Methods: This study is the result of a national multicenter cohort study conducted in Brazil. The study spanned from January 2009 to December 2016 and involved a comprehensive retrospective analysis of medical records of patients with both Chagas disease and stroke. This cohort comprised 499 individuals from diverse Brazilian regions, focusing on vascular risk factors and the epidemiological variables associated with Chagas disease and stroke., Results: Our findings underscore the significant prevalence of traditional vascular risk factors among Chagas disease patients who had stroke. 81% of patients had hypertension, 56% dyslipidemia, and 25% diabetes. We observed a 29.7% recurrence rate, especially within the cardioembolic subgroup. 56% of the patients had embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). Specific electrocardiography abnormalities were associated with an increased risk of cardioembolic etiology (with three altered results increasing 81 fold the chance of the stroke being of cardioembolic nature). Age emerged as a protective factor (OR: 0.98, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.970-0.997) against cardioembolic etiology. Anticoagulation therapy was associated with reduced risk (OR: 0.221, 95% CI 0.104-0.472), highlighting the importance of accurate etiological classification. Conversely, female gender (OR: 1.83, 95% CI: 1.039-3.249) emerged as a significant risk factor for stroke recurrence., Conclusion: This study significantly advances our epidemiological understanding of the intersection between Chagas disease and stroke. It emphasizes the critical need for extensive epidemiological investigations, a deeper comprehension of stroke recurrence determinants, and accurate etiological classification to reduce the ESUS population. Our findings have substantial clinical implications, suggesting the need of control of vascular risk factors and comorbidities and hold promise for improving patient care and reducing the burden of Chagas disease and stroke worldwide., (© 2024 S.

- Abstract
Aims: We analysed intestinal permeability in patients with chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCC) and evaluated its association with clinical manifestations, haemodynamic parameters measured by echocardiogram, and disease outcome. Intestinal permeability was compared between CCC patients and a group of healthy controls., Background: Intestinal dysfunction may contribute to a more severe disease presentation with worse outcome in patients with CCC and heart failure., Methods: Fifty patients with CCC and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of less than 55% were prospectively selected and followed for a mean period of 18 ± 8 months. A group of 27 healthy volunteers were also investigated. One patient was excluded from the analysis since he died before completing the intestinal permeability test. Intestinal permeability was evaluated with the sugar probe drink test. It consists in the urinary recovery of previously ingested sugar probes: mannitol, a monosaccharide, and lactulose, a disaccharide., Results: Patient's mean age was 53.4 ± 10.4 years, and 31(63%) were male. Differential urinary excretion of lactulose/mannitol ratio did not differ significantly between healthy controls and CCC patients, regardless of clinical signs of venous congestion, haemodynamic parameters, and severity of presentation and outcome., Conclusions: The present study could not show a disturbance of the intestinal barrier in CCC patients with LVEF <55%, measured by lactulose/mannitol urinary excretion ratio. Further investigations are needed to verify if in patients with LVEF <40% intestinal permeability is increased., (© 2022 The Authors.

- Abstract
Chagas disease (CD) continues to be a major public health burden in Latina America. Information on the interplay between COVID-19 and CD is lacking. Our aim was to assess clinical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of patients with CD and COVID-19, and to compare it to non-CD patients. Consecutive patients with confirmed COVID-19 were included from March to September 2020. Genetic matching for sex, age, hypertension, diabetes mellitus and hospital was performed in a 4:1 ratio. Of the 7018 patients who had confirmed COVID-19, 31 patients with CD and 124 matched controls were included (median age 72 (64-80) years-old, 44.5% were male). At baseline, heart failure (25.8% vs. 9.7%) and atrial fibrillation (29.0% vs. 5.6%) were more frequent in CD patients than in the controls (p < 0.05). C-reactive protein levels were lower in CD patients compared with the controls (55.5 [35.7, 85.0] vs. 94.3 [50.7, 167.5] mg/dL). In-hospital management, outcomes and complications were similar between the groups. In this large Brazilian COVID-19 Registry, CD patients had a higher prevalence of atrial fibrillation and chronic heart failure compared with non-CD controls, with no differences in-hospital outcomes. The lower C-reactive protein levels in CD patients require further investigation., (© 2021. The Author(s).)

- Abstract
Objective: Systolic dysfunction is a well-established marker of mortality in patients with Chagas cardiomyopathy (CC). However, its diagnosis is expensive and useful tools for screening these patients are required. The evaluation of the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) detects the patient's perception of the disease's impact. However, its accuracy in identifying patients with CC and systolic dysfunction is unknown. The study aimed to verify the sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of the physical and mental components related to HRQoL in identifying patients with CC and systolic dysfunction., Methods: 75 patients with CC, aged 49 (95% confidence interval: 47-51) years, were evaluated by echocardiography and Short-Form of Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire. Systolic dysfunction was defined by left ventricular ejection fraction <52% for men and <54% for women and left ventricular diastolic diameter >55 mm., Results: Most patients (73%) had systolic dysfunction, with lower HRQoL values in the physical functioning, physical role functioning and general health perceptions domains and in the physical component summary. The accuracy of identifying patients with systolic dysfunction by the scores of physical components was 73% and 62% of mental components. The optimal cut-off point was 46 for physical and 54 for mental components, with respective positive predictive values of 91% and 80%., Conclusion: The evaluation of the HRQoL by the SF-36, a low-cost instrument, can be useful in identifying patients with systolic dysfunction, assisting in the screening and risk stratification of patients., (© 2021 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.)

- Abstract
The interconnection between immune and neuroendocrine systems influences regulation of inflammatory responses. The possible relevance that this integrative response may have during the course of Chagas disease remains poorly characterized. In this context, our study was designed to determine the expression of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), a neuropeptide with anti-inflammatory properties, in blood from the indeterminate and cardiac polarized forms of Chagas disease. Moreover, we determined whether the differential expression of VIP is associated with the development of cardiomyopathy in individuals infected with Trypanosoma cruzi. Finally, we analyzed gene polymorphisms of VIP receptors, VPAC1 and VPAC2, and performed correlation analysis of these polymorphisms with the different clinical forms of Chagas disease. Our results demonstrated that low plasma levels of VIP were associated with the cardiac morbidity in Chagas disease. Accordingly, correlation analysis showed that low plasma levels of VIP were associated with worse cardiac function, as determined by left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular diastolic diameter values. Polymorphism analysis showed a significant association between VPAC1 and the indeterminate form of Chagas disease development. Our data indicate that VIP expression and its receptors' polymorphism may be important in determining susceptibility to progression from mild to severe forms of Chagas disease., (Copyright © 2013 American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics.
