Survival and prognostic factors in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder but data on survival rates are still conflicting and have not so far been quantitatively reviewed. The aim of this study is to conduct a meta-analysis of cohort studies to assess pooled survival rates and prognostic factors for survival in patients with HCM. Nineteen studies were included representing 12,146 HCM patients. The pooled 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year survival rates were 98.0%, 94.3%, 82.2% and 75.0%, respectively. Among patients with HCM, age, NYHA functional class, family history of sudden death (FHSD), syncope, atrial fibrillation, non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (nsVT), maximum left ventricular wall thickness and obstruction were significant prognostic factors for cardiovascular death. For sudden cardiac death, FHSD, nsVT, and obstruction showed significant predictive values. Moreover, estimation of population attributable risk (PAR) suggested that nsVT was the strongest predictor for cardiovascular death (13.02%, 95% CI 3.60-25.91%), while left ventricular outflow tract obstruction/mid-ventricular obstruction (LVO/MVO) was the strongest predictor for all-cause death and sudden cardiac death (10.09%, 95% CI 4.72-20.42% and 16.44%, 95% CI 7.45-31.55%, respectively). These risk factors may thus be useful for identifying HCM patients who might benefit from early diagnosis and therapeutic interventions.

Project description:BackgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is recognized as the most prevalent form of genetic cardiomyopathy, and recent investigations have shed light on the existence of sex disparities in terms of clinical presentation, disease progression, and outcomes.ObjectivesThis study aimed to systematically review the literature and perform a meta-analysis to comprehensively compare the clinical outcomes between female and male patients with HCM.MethodsA thorough search was conducted in databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, encompassing literature from inception until June 2023. The primary endpoints examined were: (1) all-cause mortality; (2) an arrhythmic endpoint comprising sudden cardiac death (SCD), sustained ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, or aborted SCD; and (3) a composite endpoint incorporating either (1) or (2), in addition to hospitalization for heart failure or cardiac transplantation. Pooled estimates were derived using a random-effects meta-analysis model.ResultsThe analysis encompassed a total of 29 observational studies, involving 44,677 patients diagnosed with HCM, of which 16,807 were female. Baseline characteristics revealed that the female group exhibited an advanced age [55.66 ± 0.04 years vs. 50.38 ± 0.03 years, pooled mean difference (MD) = 0.31, 95% CI: 0.22-0.40, p = 0.000, I2 = 88.89%], a higher proportion of New York Heart Association class III/IV patients [pooled odds ratio (OR) = 1.94, 95% CI: 1.55-2.43, p = 0.000, I2 = 85.92%], and a greater prevalence of left ventricular outflow tract gradient greater than or equal to 30 mmHg (pooled OR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.27-1.73, p = 0.000, I2 = 68.88%) compared to the male group. The female group were more likely to have a positive genetic test (pooled OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.08-1.48, p = 0.000, I2 = 42.74%) and to carry the myosin heavy chain beta 7 mutation (pooled OR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.04-1.54, p = 0.020, I2 = 0.00%) compared to the male group. Female sex exhibited a significant association with increased risks of all-cause mortality (pooled OR = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.38-1.89, p = 0.000, I2 = 72.78%) and the composite endpoint (pooled OR = 1.47, 95% CI: 1.20-1.79, p = 0.000, I2 = 84.96%), while no substantial difference was observed in the arrhythmic endpoint (pooled OR = 1.08, 95% CI: 0.87-1.34, p = 0.490, I2 = 55.48%).ConclusionsThe present findings suggest that female patients with HCM tend to experience poorer clinical outcomes. It is imperative to critically reevaluate disease definitions and enhance awareness to mitigate delays in the diagnosis and treatment of HCM in women, thereby fostering equitable healthcare practices.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/, PROSPERO (CRD42023431881).

Project description:Importance:The c9orf72 repeat expansion (c9 or c9orf72RE) confers a survival disadvantage in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS); its effect on prognosis in frontotemporal dementia (FTD) remains uncertain. Data on prognostic factors in c9orf72RE disorders could inform patient care, genetic counseling, and trial design. Objective:To examine prognostic factors in c9ALS, c9FTD, c9ALS-FTD, and atypical phenotypes. Data Sources:The MEDLINE, Embase, Amed, ProQuest, PsychINFO, CINAHL, and LILACS databases were searched between January 2011 and January 2019. Keywords used were c9orf72 and chromosome 9 open reading frame 72. Reference lists, citations of eligible studies, and review articles were also searched by hand. Study Selection:Studies reporting disease duration for patients with a confirmed c9orf72RE and a neurological and/or psychiatric disorder were included. A second author independently reviewed studies classified as irrelevant by the first author. Analysis began in January 2019. Data Extraction and Synthesis:Data were extracted by 1 author; a further author independently extracted 10% of data. Data were synthesized in univariate and multivariable Cox regression and are displayed as hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals. Main Outcomes and Measures:Survival after symptom onset. Results:Overall, 206 studies reporting on 1060 patients were included from 2878 publications identified (c9ALS: n?=?455; c9FTD: n?=?296; c9ALS-FTD: n?=?198; atypical phenotypes: n?=?111); 197 duplicate cases were excluded. The median (95% CI) survival (in years) differed significantly between patients with c9ALS (2.8 [2.67-3.00]), c9FTD (9.0 [8.09-9.91]), and c9ALS-FTD (3.0 [2.73-3.27]); survival in atypical phenotypes varied substantially. Older age at onset was associated with shorter survival in c9ALS (HR, 1.03; 95% CI, 1.02-1.04; P?<?.001), c9FTD (HR, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.02-1.06; P?<?.001), and c9ALS-FTD (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 1.004-1.04; P?=?.016). Bulbar onset was associated with shorter survival in c9ALS (HR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.27-2.08; P?<?.001). Age at onset and bulbar onset ALS remained significant in multivariable regression including variables indicating potential diagnostic ascertainment bias, selection bias, and reporting bias. Family history, sex, study continent, FTD subtype, or the presence of additional pathogenic sequence variants were not significantly associated with survival. Clinical phenotypes in patients with neuropathologically confirmed frontotemporal lobar degeneration-TDP-43, motor neuron disease-TDP-43 and frontotemporal lobar degeneration-motor neuron disease-TDP-43 were heterogenous and impacted on survival. Conclusions and Relevance:Several factors associated with survival in c9orf72RE disorders were identified. The inherent limitations of our methodological approach must be considered; nonetheless, the reported prognostic factors were not significantly associated with the bias indicators examined.
