Abstract

BACKGROUND: Patients with systolic heart failure and anemia have worse symptoms, functional capacity, and outcomes than those without anemia. We evaluated the effects of darbepoetin alfa on clinical outcomes in patients with systolic heart failure and anemia. METHODS: In this randomized, double-blind trial, we assigned 2278 patients with systolic heart failure and mild-to-moderate anemia (hemoglobin level, 9.0 to 12.0 g per deciliter) to receive either darbepoetin alfa (to achieve a hemoglobin target of 13 g per deciliter) or placebo. The primary outcome was a composite of death from any cause or hospitalization for worsening heart failure. RESULTS: The primary outcome occurred in 576 of 1136 patients (50.7%) in the darbepoetin alfa group and 565 of 1142 patients (49.5%) in the placebo group (hazard ratio in the darbepoetin alfa group, 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 0.90 to 1.13; P=0.87). There was no significant between-group difference in any of the secondary outcomes. The neutral effect of darbepoetin alfa was consistent across all prespecified subgroups. Fatal or nonfatal stroke occurred in 42 patients (3.7%) in the darbepoetin alfa group and 31 patients (2.7%) in the placebo group (P=0.23). Thromboembolic adverse events were reported in 153 patients (13.5%) in the darbepoetin alfa group and 114 patients (10.0%) in the placebo group (P=0.01). Cancer-related adverse events were similar in the two study groups. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment with darbepoetin alfa did not improve clinical outcomes in patients with systolic heart failure and mild-to-moderate anemia. Our findings do not support the use of darbepoetin alfa in these patients. (Funded by Amgen; RED-HF ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00358215.). Fil: Swedberg, Karl.

Abstract

Rationale and Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate a new formula for the rapid assessment of pericardial effusion (PE) volume by computed tomography. Materials and Methods: Twenty computed tomographic scans positive for PE were reviewed by two observers. Diameters of PE were measured at four locations. Additionally, PE volume was assessed by volumetry. The correlation between PE diameters and volume was evaluated, and a linear equation was derived for each diameter location. To test validity and reliability of the measurements, intraclass correlation and Bland-Altman analysis were performed. Results: Good validity was expressed by strong correlations between diameter measurements at all four locations and PE volume (all R values >0.80 and P values <.0001). Intraclass correlation (all coefficients >0.75) and Bland-Altman analysis revealed good interobserver and intraobserver reliability of diameter measurements. The best values were observed for apical diameter measurements. The following linear equation was derived for apical diameter measurements: PE volume = 296 (mL/cm) × apical diameter (cm) - 32 mL. Conclusions: PE volume can rapidly be assessed by apical PE diameter measurement using the simplified formula PE volume = 0.3 (L/cm) × apical diameter (cm). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The purpose was to assess the feasibility of high temporal resolution cine MRI (HTRC-MRI) to detect and to quantify mechanical ventricular asynchrony in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB). Inter- and intraventricular delays were quantified by HTRC-MRI in 32 patients with (n=17) and without (n=15) LBBB. In patients with LBBB, delays by HTRC-MRI were correlated with echocardiographic parameters using pulsed wave Doppler echocardiography (PW-Echo) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI-Echo). The interventricular delay by HTRC-MRI was 110+/-50 ms in patients with and -1+/-18 ms in patients without LBBB (P<0.0001). The intraventricular delay was 336+/-86 ms in patients with compared to 40+/-49 ms in patients without LBBB (P<0.0001). A strong correlation (r=0.78, P=0.0002) and good agreement (mean difference: 39+/-36 ms) was found for the interventricular delay between HTRC-MRI and PW-Echo. A good correlation (r=0.66, P=0.0042), but a large discrepancy (mean difference: 257+/-64 ms) was found for the intraventricular delay between HTRC-MRI and TDI-Echo. Detection and quantification of mechanical ventricular asynchrony using HTRC-MRI is feasible. However, further comparison with other imaging modalities is required. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Abstract Background The presence of impaired left atrial appendage (LAA) function identifies patients who are prone to thrombus formation in the LAA and therefore being at high risk for subsequent cardioembolic stroke. LAA function is typically assessed by measurements of LAA emptying velocities using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in clinical routine. This study aimed at evaluating the feasibility of assessing LAA emptying by velocity encoded (VENC) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Methods This study included 30 patients with sinus rhythm (n = 18) or atrial fibrillation (n = 12). VENC-CMR velocity measurements were performed perpendicular to the orifice of the LAA. Peak velocities were measured of passive diastolic LAA emptying (e-wave) in all patients. Peak velocities of active, late-diastolic LAA emptying (a-wave) were assessed in patients with sinus rhythm. Correlation and agreement was analyzed between VENC-CMR and TEE measurements of e- and a-wave peak velocities. Results A significant correlation and good agreement was found between VENC-CMR and TEE measurements of maximal e-wave velocities (r = 0.61, P Conclusions The assessment of active and passive LAA emptying by VENC-CMR is feasible. Further evaluation is required of potential future clinical applications such as risk stratification for cardioembolic stroke.

Abstract

Objectives: Myocardial fibrosis in noninfarcted myocardium is emerging as a principal phenotype of vulnerability to adverse events such as mortality and hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), but its optimal noninvasive measurement remains uncertain despite consistently robust histologic validation data for extracellular volume fraction (ECV). We therefore compared ECV, native T1, post contrast T1, the gadolinium contrast partition coefficient (lambda), and the presence of nonischemic scar in their associations with mortality and HHF outcomes. Method: To quantify of myocardial fibrosis, we performed T1 mapping (MOLLI) in basal and mid short axis slices with cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) before contrast and 12-30 minutes post contrast bolus in 1185 consecutive patients without amyloidosis, hypertrophic or stress cardiomyopathy. We assessed associations with outcomes using Kaplan-Meier plots and chi square values from univariable Cox regression models. All standard T1 mapping parameters were obtained: native and post contrast myocardial T1, the partition coefficient lambda, and ECV. ECV = (1-hematocrit) · [ΔR1myocardium]/[ΔR1bloodpool], where R1 = 1/T1 Late gadolinium enhancement imaging with phase sensitive reconstruction identified nonischemic scar. Results: Over a median of 1.7 years, 111 individuals experienced events after CMR: 55 HHF events and 74 deaths. ECV yielded better separation of Kaplan-Meier curves in a dose dependent fashion (Figure) and also stronger associations with the combined endpoint of death or HHF. The ECV chi square (77.3, p < 0.001) was at least twice as large as the Native T1 chi square (37.5, p < 0.001), the lambda chi square (34.8, p < 0.001) and nonischemic scar (chi square = 20.5, p<0.001). Post-contrast T1 was not associated with outcomes, even when adjusting further for time after contrast bolus, renal function, and patient weight (chi square <3, p >0.10). Conclusion: Analogous to histologic previously published validation data, quantitative ECV myocardial fibrosis measures associated with outcomes far stronger than other surrogate measures outcome measures such as native T1, post contrast T1 and nonischemic scar on LGE images. These data suggest that ECV is the noninvasive metric of choice to measure myocardial fibrosis. Figure. Kaplan-Meier Plots for T1 mapping parameters.
