About 60% of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have microvascular dysfunction. Microvascular dysfunction is directly related to prognosis in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This new measurement method is microcirculation resistance (MR) based on quantitative flow ratio (QFR), which does not need a pressure guide wire on the basis of angiography. The QFR system is used to evaluate the blood vessels distal pressure and blood flow, and their ratio is microcirculation resistance (MR). The quantitative blood flow fraction measurement system was analyzed by interventional laboratory platform image analysis software (AngioPlus 2.0). This study is a single-center retrospective cohort study. Participants were selected from patients who were diagnosed with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy in Fuwai Hospital from January 2020 to November 2021. The risk factor is whether there is microcirculation resistance disorder. The outcome was the major adverse cardiovascular events related to HCM (including all-cause death, heart transplantation, left ventricular pacemaker, and heart failure readmission) that were followed up one year after angiography. Aim To further clarify whether there is a certain correlation between microvascular resistance and adverse cardiovascular prognosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended dosing with eplontersen in participants with ATTR-CM.
The goal of the this observational study is to gather clinically available data on patients presenting with a suspicion for arrhythmia-induced cardiomyopathy (AiCM) at the University Hospital Basel.
Congenital cardiopathy are frequent malformations (1/100 birth). The progress of surgery permit a survival rate at the adult age of more than 90%. The long terms consequences must be taken in account and the nerodevelopmental disorders are in first place (intelectual deficiency, autism spectrum disorders, or attention disorders) and presents in 30 to 60% of the patients (Calmant, 2015). The impact can be important on the scolarity, the studies, the professional activity and finaly on the quality of life of the patients becomming adults. The identification of the risk factors on surgery period should permit to propose the most adapted follow-up to the specifics needs of each patients. On the scientific plans, the identification of early markers on brain dammage on EEG should permit to better apprehend the physiopathologic mecanisms involved.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Advanced cardiovascular imaging using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has proven to be effective in providing gold standard myocardial tissue characterization. Moreover, the intrinsic advantage of MRI's lack of exposure to ionizing radiation is particularly beneficial. At the same time, blood work can be very useful in early detection of certain cardiomyopathy, such as amyloid. However, there is a lack of agreement of on which markers are the most sensitive. This multi-study will allow us the unique opportunity to form a more comprehensive understanding for various cardiovascular diseases. Our team has developed novel cardiac MRI techniques that leverages endogenous tissue properties to reveal a milieu of deep tissue phenotypes including myocardial inflammation, fibrosis, metabolism, and microstructural defects. Among these phenotypes, myocardial microstructure has proven to be most sensitive to early myocardial tissue damage and is predictive of myocardial regeneration. In this study, the investigators aim to further study the importance of cardiac microstructure revealed by MRI in patient and healthy population and compare this novel technology with conventional clinical biomarkers.
Type 2 diabetes (T2D), especially when associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) is at high risk to develop heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or heart failure with mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF), and the specific impact of T2D+MS in cardiac function impairment is usually known as "diabetic cardiomyopathy" (DC). Cardiac remodelling (ie hypertrophy) and subtle myocardial dysfunction are highly prevalent in T2D+MS but not specific enough to predict further HFpEF or HFmrEF. Also, current biomarkers can identify but do not predict HFpEF or HFmrEF in T2D patients; Furthermore, specific biomarkers are needed. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) obtained from a peripheral blood sample can provide insights from calcic and inflammatory pathways, and may identify more specific molecular signatures shared between T2D+MS and HFpEF.
The investigators aim to prospectively test the comparative effectiveness of His or Left bundle branch pacing in relation to patient centered outcomes (quality of life, physical activity, heart failure hospitalization, mortality) and comparative safety in relation to device-related complications and re-interventions (e.g., lead dislodgement, infection) relative to standard of care biventricular pacing in patients with heart failure due to left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVEF≤50%) and with either a wide QRS (≥130 ms) or with/anticipated >40% pacing who are already receiving current standard heart failure pharmacological therapy.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, the safety and the efficacy of the transapical beating-heart myectomy for the treatment of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This is a prospective, single-arm, single-center study.
This is a non-invasive/observational study in healthy and mild HF subjects utilizing clinical and ambulatory measurements to improve detection, monitoring, and management of HF risks.
