Simple Electrocardiographic Score Can Predict Left Ventricular Reverse Remodeling in Patients With Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT: Background: Left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) is a favorable response in non-ischemic, non-valvular cardiomyopathy (NICM) patients. Recently, 18-lead body surface electrocardiography (ECG), the standard 12-lead ECG with synthesized right-sided/posterior chest leads, has been developed, but its predictive value for LVRR has not been evaluated. Methods?and?Results: Of 216 consecutive hospitalized NICM patients with LV ejection fraction (LVEF) ?35%, we studied 125 who received optimization of their heart failure treatment and had 18-lead ECG and echocardiography data available for evaluating LVRR, defined as an absolute increase in LVEF ?10% concomitant with LVEF ?35% after 1-year optimized treatment. Most 18-lead ECG parameters in the NICM patients differed from those in 312 age- and body mass index-matched subjects with normal echocardiography. LVRR occurred in 59 NICM patients and they had a larger QRS amplitude in the limb leads (I, II, aVR, and aVF), precordial leads (V3-V6), and synthesized leads (syn-V4R-5R), decreased QRS axis and duration, and lower prevalence of fragmented QRS than those without LVRR. The ECG score using 3 selected parameters (QRS amplitude in aVR ?675 µV; QRS duration <106 ms without fragmentation; and QRS axis <67°) was associated with the incidence of LVRR even after adjusting for optimized treatment. Conclusions: The standard 12-lead ECG parameters are sufficiently predictive of LVRR in NICM patients.

Project description:Background: The prognosis of pediatric dilated cardiomyopathy (PDCM) is highly variable, ranging from death to cardiac function recovery. Left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) represents a favorable prognosis in PDCM. Disturbance of lipid metabolism is associated with the change of cardiac function, but no studies have examined lipidomics data and LVRR. Methods: Discovery analyses were based on 540 targeted lipids in an observational, prospective China-AOCC (An Integrative-Omics Study of Cardiomyopathy Patients for Diagnosis and Prognosis in China) study. The OPLS-DA and random forest (RF) analysis were used to screen the candidate lipids. Associations of the candidate lipids were examined in Cox proportional hazards regression models. Furthermore, we developed a risk score comprising the significant lipids, with each attributed a score of 1 when the concentration was above the median. All significant findings were replicated in a validation set of the China-AOCC study. Results: There were 59 patients in the discovery set and 24 patients in the validation set. LVRR was observed in 27 patients (32.5%). After adjusting for age, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) z-score, lysophosphatidic acids (LysoPA) 16:0, LysoPA 18:2, LysoPA 18:1, and LysoPA 18:0 were significantly associated with LVRR in the discovery set, and hazard ratios (HRs) were 2.793 (95% CI, 1.545-5.048), 2.812 (95% CI, 1.542-5.128), 2.831 (95% CI, 1.555-5.154), and 2.782 (95% CI, 1.548-5.002), respectively. We developed a LysoPA score comprising the four LysoPA. When the LysoPA score reached 4, LVRR was more likely to be observed in both sets. The AUC increased with the addition of the LysoPA score to the LVEDD z-score (from 0.693 to 0.875 in the discovery set, from 0.708 to 0.854 in the validation set) for prediction of LVRR. Conclusions: Serum LysoPA can predict LVRR in PDCM patients. When the LysoPA score was combined with the LVEDD z-score, it may help in ascertaining the prognosis and monitoring effects of anti-heart failure pharmacotherapy.

Project description:AimsLeft ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR) is a well-established predictor of a good prognosis in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The prediction of LVRR is important when developing a long-term treatment strategy. This study aimed to assess the clinical predictors of LVRR and establish a scoring system for predicting LVRR in patients with DCM that can be used at any institution.Methods and resultsWe consecutively enrolled 131 patients with DCM and assessed the clinical predictors of LVRR. LVRR was defined as an absolute increase in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from ≥10% to a final value of >35%, accompanied by a decrease in left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) ≥ 10% on echocardiography at 1 ± 0.5 years after a diagnosis of DCM. The mean patient age was 50.1 ± 11.9 years. The mean LVEF was 32.2 ± 9.5%, and the mean LVEDD was 64.1 ± 12.5 mm at diagnosis. LVRR was observed in 45 patients (34%) at 1 ± 0.5 years. In a multivariate analysis, hypertension [odds ratio (OR): 6.86; P = 0.002], no family history of DCM (OR: 10.45; P = 0.037), symptom duration <90 days (OR: 6.72; P < 0.001), LVEF <35% (OR: 13.66; P < 0.0001), and QRS duration <116 ms (OR: 5.94; P = 0.005) were found to be independent predictors of LVRR. We scored the five independent predictors according to the ORs (1 point, 2 points, 1 point, 2 points, and 1 point, respectively), and the total LVRR predicting score was calculated by adding these scores. The LVRR rate was stratified by the LVRR predicting score (0-2 points: 0%; 3 points: 6.7%; 4 points: 17.4%; 5 points: 48.2%; 6 points: 79.2%; and 7 points: 100%). The cut-off value of the LVRR predicting score was >5 in receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis (area under the curve: 0.89; P < 0.0001; sensitivity: 87%; specificity: 78%). An LVRR predicting score of >5 was an independent predictor compared with the presence of late gadolinium enhancement on cardiovascular magnetic resonance or the severity of fibrosis on endomyocardial biopsy (OR: 11.79; 95% confidence interval: 2.40-58.00; P = 0.002).ConclusionsThe LVRR predicting score using five predictors including hypertension, no family history of DCM, symptom duration <90 days, LVEF <35%, and QRS duration <116 ms can stratify the LVRR rate in patients with DCM. The LVRR predicting score may be a useful clinical tool that can be used easily at any institution.
