AIMS: Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) is a known outcome predictor in transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) for functional mitral regurgitation (MR). We aimed to assess its prognostic yield in the setting of TEER for chronic primary MR. METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a single-center, retrospective analysis of 323 consecutive patients undergoing isolated, first-time procedures. Stratified by baseline LVGLS quartiles (≤-19%, -18.9-(-16)%, -15...

AIMS: Current assessment of myocardial ischaemia from stress perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (SP-CMR) largely relies on visual interpretation. This study investigated the use of high-resolution free-breathing SP-CMR with automated quantitative mapping in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). Diagnostic performance was evaluated against invasive coronary angiography (ICA) with fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement. METHODS & RESULTS: Seven-hundred and three patients were recruited for SP-CMR using the research sequence at 3 Tesla...

PURPOSE: Firstly, to validate automatically and visually scored coronary artery calcium (CAC) on low dose CT (LDCT) scans with a dedicated calcium scoring CT (CSCT) scan. Secondly, to assess the added value of CAC scored from LDCT scans acquired during [15O]-water-PET myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) on prediction of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). METHODS: 572 consecutive patients with suspected coronary artery disease, who underwent [15O]-water-PET MPI with LDCT and a dedicated CSCT scan were included...

AIMS: Evidence on the epidemiology and prognostic significance of mitral regurgitation (MR) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in patients with cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is scarce. METHODS AND RESULTS: Overall, 538 patients with either transthyretin (ATTR, n = 359) or immunoglobulin light-chain (AL, n = 179) CA were included at three Italian referral centres. Patients were stratified according to isolated or combined moderate/severe MR and TR. Overall, 240 patients (44...

AIMS: To assess pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) as a marker of inflammatory disease activity in coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV). METHODS AND RESULTS: PCAT density, lesion volumes, and total vessel volume-to-myocardial mass ratio (V/M) were retrospectively measured in 126 CCTAs from 94 heart transplant patients (mean age 49 [SD 14.5] years, 40% female) who underwent imaging between 2010 to 2021; age and sex-matched controls; and patients with atherosclerosis...

AIMS: To compare the association between measures of left atrial (LA) structure and function, derived from cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), with cardiovascular (CV) death or non-fatal heart failure (HF) events in patients with non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). METHODS AND RESULTS: CMR studies of 580 prospectively recruited patients with DCM in sinus rhythm (median age 54 [interquartile range 44-64] years, 61% men, median LVEF 42% [30-51%]) were analysed for measures of LA structure (left atrial maximum volume index [LAVImax], left atrial minimum volume index [LAVImin]) and function (left atrial emptying fraction [LAEF], left atrial reservoir strain [LARS], left atrial conduit strain [LACS] and left atrial booster strain [LABS])...

AIMS: Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS) results in significant morbidity. A left atrial (LA) myopathy is implicated in a proportion of these patients. We hypothesized that LA shape varies by cause of stroke (cardioembolic versus ESUS). METHODS AND RESULTS: 236 ischemic stroke, atrial fibrillation (AF) patients and controls were recruited prospectively. AF was classified as paroxysmal (PAF) or persistent AF (PersAF). Stroke patients comprised cardioembolic stroke (CE) secondary to AF and ESUS...

AIMS: Cardiac metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) imaging provides prognostic information in patients with heart failure. Recently, the trajectory of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) has been a focus in patients with reduced LVEF admitted for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). We sought to investigate the prognostic value of follow-up cardiac MIBG imaging in ADHF patients with reduced LVEF in relation to LVEF trajectory. METHODS AND RESULTS: We prospectively studied 145 ADHF patients with reduced LVEF<40%...

BACKGROUND: Residual congestion in acute heart failure (AHF) is associated with poor prognosis. However, there is a lack of data on the prognostic value of changes in a combined assessment of in-hospital congestion. The present study sought to assess the association between in-hospital congestion changes and subsequent prognosis according to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) classification. METHODS: Patients (N=244, 80.3±7.6 years, 50.8% male) admitted for acute HF in two European tertiary care centers underwent clinical assessment (congestion score included dyspnea at rest, rales, third heart sound, jugular venous distention, peripheral edema and hepatomegaly; simplified congestion score included rales and peripheral edema), echocardiography, lung ultrasound (LUS) and natriuretic peptides (NP) measurement at admission and discharge...

AIMS: Cardiovascular diseases manifest differently in males and females, potentially influenced by inherent sex- and age-related differences in myocardial tissue composition. Such inherent differences are not well-established in the literature. With this study using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) native T1 mapping, we aim to determine the effect of sex and age on myocardial tissue composition in healthy individuals. METHODS AND RESULTS: CMR native T1 mapping was performed in 276 healthy individuals (55% male, age 8---84 years) on a 1...

BACKGROUND: Mitral regurgitation (MR) causes left atrial (LA) enlargement and impaired reservoir function. We assessed whether changes in LA size, strain and stiffness in significant (moderate or greater) primary MR are sex-specific. METHODS AND RESULTS: In the 3D Echocardiography and Cardiovascular Prognosis in Mitral Regurgitation study (3D-PRIME), 111 patients with primary MR were prospectively investigated with 2D and 3D echocardiography. MR was severe if the 3D regurgitant fraction was ≥50%...
