Long-Term Outcomes of Tachycardia-Induced Cardiomyopathy Compared with Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

data on the natural course and prognosis of tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy (TICMP) and comparison with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathies (IDCM) are scarce.

Objective

To compare the clinical presentation, comorbidities, and long-term outcomes of TICMP patients with IDCM patients.

Methods

a retrospective cohort study of patients hospitalized with new-onset TICMP or IDCM. The primary endpoint was a composite of death, myocardial infarction, thromboembolic events, assist device, heart transplantation, and ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation (VT/VF). The secondary endpoint was recurrent hospitalization due to heart failure (HF) exacerbation.

Results

the cohort was comprised of 64 TICMP and 66 IDCM patients. The primary composite endpoint and all-cause mortality were similar between the groups during a median follow-up of ~6 years (36% versus 29%, p = 0.33 and 22% versus 15%, p = 0.15, respectively). Survival analysis showed no significant difference between TICMP and IDCM groups for the composite endpoint (p = 0.75), all-cause mortality (p = 0.65), and hospitalizations due to heart failure exacerbation. Nonetheless, the incidence of recurrent hospitalization was significantly higher in TICMP patients (incidence rate ratio 1.59; p = 0.009).

Conclusions

patients with TICMP have similar long-term outcomes as those with IDCM. However, it portends a higher rate of HF readmissions, mostly due to arrhythmia recurrences.

Project description:BackgroundVentricular tachycardia (VT) is a major cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Clinical investigations can sometimes fail to identify the underlying cause of VT and the event is classified as idiopathic (iVT). VT contributes significantly to the morbidity and mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Since mutations in arrhythmia-associated genes frequently determine arrhythmia susceptibility screening for disease-predisposing variants could improve VT diagnostics and prevent SCD in patients.MethodsNinety-two patients diagnosed with coronary heart disease (CHD), DCM, or iVT were included in our study. We evaluated genetic profiles and variants in known cardiac risk genes by targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) using a newly designed custom panel of 96 genes. We hypothesized that shared morphological and phenotypical features among these subgroups may have an overlapping molecular base. To our knowledge, this was the first study of the deep sequencing of 96 targeted cardiac genes in Kazakhstan. The clinical significance of the sequence variants was interpreted according to the guidelines developed by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and the Association for Molecular Pathology (AMP) in 2015. The ClinVar and Varsome databases were used to determine the variant classifications.ResultsTargeted sequencing and stepwise filtering of the annotated variants identified a total of 307 unique variants in 74 genes, totally 456 variants in the overall study group. We found 168 mutations listed in the Human Genome Mutation Database (HGMD) and another 256 rare/unique variants with elevated pathogenic potential. There was a predominance of high- to intermediate pathogenicity variants in LAMA2, MYBPC3, MYH6, KCNQ1, GAA, and DSG2 in CHD VT patients. Similar frequencies were observed in DCM VT, and iVT patients, pointing to a common molecular disease association. TTN, GAA, LAMA2, and MYBPC3 contained the most variants in the three subgroups which confirm the impact of these genes in the complex pathogenesis of cardiomyopathies and VT. The classification of 307 variants according to ACMG guidelines showed that nine (2.9%) variants could be classified as pathogenic, nine (2.9%) were likely pathogenic, 98 (31.9%) were of uncertain significance, 73 (23.8%) were likely benign, and 118 (38.4%) were benign. CHD VT patients carry rare genetic variants with increased pathogenic potential at a comparable frequency to DCM VT and iVT patients in genes related to sarcomere function, nuclear function, ion flux, and metabolism.ConclusionsIn this study we showed that in patients with VT secondary to coronary artery disease, DCM, or idiopathic etiology multiple rare mutations and clinically significant sequence variants in classic cardiac risk genes associated with cardiac channelopathies and cardiomyopathies were found in a similar pattern and at a comparable frequency.

Project description:ImportanceIdiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) aggregates in families, and early detection in at-risk family members can provide opportunity to initiate treatment prior to late-phase disease. Most studies have included only White patients, yet Black patients with DCM have higher risk of heart failure-related hospitalization and death.ObjectiveTo estimate the prevalence of familial DCM among DCM probands and the age-specific cumulative risk of DCM in first-degree relatives across race and ethnicity groups.Design, setting, and participantsA family-based, cross-sectional study conducted by a multisite consortium of 25 US heart failure programs. Participants included patients with DCM (probands), defined as left ventricular systolic dysfunction and left ventricular enlargement after excluding usual clinical causes, and their first-degree relatives. Enrollment commenced June 7, 2016; proband and family member enrollment concluded March 15, 2020, and April 1, 2021, respectively.ExposuresThe presence of DCM in a proband.Main outcomes and measuresFamilial DCM defined by DCM in at least 1 first-degree relative; expanded familial DCM defined by the presence of DCM or either left ventricular enlargement or left ventricular systolic dysfunction without known cause in at least 1 first-degree relative.ResultsThe study enrolled 1220 probands (median age, 52.8 years [IQR, 42.4-61.8]; 43.8% female; 43.1% Black and 8.3% Hispanic) and screened 1693 first-degree relatives for DCM. A median of 28% (IQR, 0%-60%) of living first-degree relatives were screened per family. The crude prevalence of familial DCM among probands was 11.6% overall. The model-based estimate of the prevalence of familial DCM among probands at a typical US advanced heart failure program if all living first-degree relatives were screened was 29.7% (95% CI, 23.5% to 36.0%) overall. The estimated prevalence of familial DCM was higher in Black probands than in White probands (difference, 11.3% [95% CI, 1.9% to 20.8%]) but did not differ significantly between Hispanic probands and non-Hispanic probands (difference, -1.4% [95% CI, -15.9% to 13.1%]). The estimated prevalence of expanded familial DCM was 56.9% (95% CI, 50.8% to 63.0%) overall. Based on age-specific disease status at enrollment, estimated cumulative risks in first-degree relatives at a typical US advanced heart failure program reached 19% (95% CI, 13% to 24%) by age 80 years for DCM and 33% (95% CI, 27% to 40%) for expanded DCM inclusive of partial phenotypes. The DCM hazard was higher in first-degree relatives of non-Hispanic Black probands than non-Hispanic White probands (hazard ratio, 1.89 [95% CI, 1.26 to 2.83]).Conclusions and relevanceIn a US cross-sectional study, there was substantial estimated prevalence of familial DCM among probands and modeled cumulative risk of DCM among their first-degree relatives.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03037632.
