Two-dimensional phase-contrast MRI reveals changes in uterine arterial blood flow in pregnant women administered tadalafil for fetal growth restriction. Placenta 2024; 146:1-8. [PMID: 38157651 DOI: 10.1016/j.placenta.2023.12.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION We aimed to examine the effect of uterine arterial (UtA) blood flow changes after tadalafil treatment for fetal growth restriction (FGR) using two-dimensional (2D) phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI). METHODS We recruited 14 pregnant women with FGR aged 20-44 years, at ≥20 weeks' gestation, between May 2019 and July 2020. They underwent 2D PC-MRI for UtA blood flow measurement 3 days (interquartile range: 2-4) after diagnosis. This group (FGR group) was compared with 14 gestational age (GA)-matched healthy pregnant women (control group). Six patients in the FGR group received treatment with tadalafil administered at 20 mg twice daily after the first MRI until delivery. They underwent a second MRI a week later. RESULTS The median total UtA blood/body surface area was 420 mL/min/m2 (290-494) in the FGR group and 547 mL/min/m2 (433-681) in the control group (p = 0.01). Percent increase in blood flow were significantly different between the FGR cases treated with tadalafil and control at 15.8 % (14.3-21.3) and 4.2 % (3.6-8.7), respectively (p = 0.03). DISCUSSION UtA blood flow in pregnant women with FGR was significantly lower than that in healthy pregnant women. Tadalafil is expected to improve UtA blood flow, thereby improving placental function in pregnant patients with FGR.

J Cardiovasc Magn Reson 2023; 25:11. [PMID: 36805689 PMCID: PMC9940433 DOI: 10.1186/s12968-023-00912-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Phase-contrast cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) of the coronary sinus has emerged as a non-invasive method for measuring coronary sinus blood flow and coronary flow reserve (CFR). However, its clinical utility has not yet been established. Here we performed a meta-analysis to clarify the clinical value of CMR-derived CFR in various cardiovascular diseases. METHODS An electronic database search was performed of PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, Cochrane Advanced Search, and EMBASE. We compared the CMR-derived CFR of various cardiovascular diseases (stable coronary artery disease [CAD], hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [HCM], dilated cardiomyopathy [DCM]) and control subjects. We assessed the prognostic value of CMR-derived CFR for predicting major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients with stable CAD. RESULTS A total of 47 eligible studies were identified. The pooled CFR from our meta-analysis was 3.48 (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.98-3.98) in control subjects, 2.50 (95% CI, 2.38-2.61) in stable CAD, 2.01 (95% CI, 1.70-2.32) in cardiomyopathies (HCM and DCM). The meta-analysis showed that CFR was significantly reduced in stable CAD (mean difference [MD] = -1.48; 95% CI, -1.78 to -1.17; p < 0.001; I2 = 0%; p for heterogeneity = 0.33), HCM (MD = -1.20; 95% CI, -1.63 to -0.77; p < 0.001; I2 = 0%; p for heterogeneity = 0.49), and DCM (MD = -1.53; 95% CI, -1.93 to -1.13; p < 0.001; I2 = 0%; p for heterogeneity = 0.45). CMR-derived CFR was an independent predictor of MACE for patients with stable CAD (hazard ratio = 0.52 per unit increase; 95% CI, 0.37-0.73; p < 0.001; I2 = 84%, p for heterogeneity < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS CMR-derived CFR was significantly decreased in cardiovascular diseases, and a decreased CFR was associated with a higher occurrence of MACE in patients with stable CAD. These results suggest that CMR-derived CFR has potential for the pathological evaluation of stable CAD, cardiomyopathy, and risk stratification in CAD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Measuring self-reported experience of health and functioning is important for understanding the changes in the health status of individuals switching from cigarettes to less harmful tobacco and/or nicotine products (TNP) or reduced-risk products (RRP) and for supporting tobacco harm reduction strategies. METHODS This paper presents insights from three research activities from the preparatory phase of the development of a new self-report health and functioning measure. A scoping literature review was conducted to identify the positive and negative impact of TNP use on health and functioning. Focus groups (n = 29) on risk perception and individual interviews (n = 40) on perceived dependence in people who use TNPs were reanalyzed in the context of health and functioning, and expert opinion was gathered from five key opinion leaders and five technical consultants. RESULTS Triangulating the findings of the review of 97 articles, qualitative input from people who use TNPs, and expert feedback helped generate a preliminary conceptual framework including health and functioning and conceptually-related domains impacted by TNP use. Domains related to the future health and functioning measurement model include physical health signs and symptoms, general physical appearance, functioning (physical, sexual, cognitive, emotional, and social), and general health perceptions. CONCLUSIONS This preliminary conceptual framework can inform future research on development and validation of new measures for assessment of overall health and functioning impact of TNPs from the consumers' perspective.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2021; 21:237. [PMID: 33980159 PMCID: PMC8114700 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-021-02050-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The effect of smoking on coronary vasomotion has been investigated in the past with various imaging techniques in both short- and long-term smokers. Additionally, coronary vasomotion has been shown to be normalized in long-term smokers by L-Arginine acting as a substrate for NO synthase, revealing the coronary endothelium as the major site of abnormal vasomotor response. Aim of the prospective cohort study was to investigate coronary vasomotion of young healthy short-term smokers via magnetic resonance cold pressor test with and without the administration of L-Arginine and compare obtained results with the ones from nonsmokers. Methods Myocardial blood flow (MBF) was quantified with first-pass perfusion MRI on a 1.5 T scanner in healthy short-term smokers (N = 10, age: 25.0 ± 2.8 years, 5.0 ± 2.9 pack years) and nonsmokers (N = 10, age: 34.3 ± 13.6) both at rest and during cold pressor test (CPT). Smokers underwent an additional examination after administration of L-Arginine within a median of 7 days of the naïve examination. Results MBF at rest turned out to be 0.77 ± 0.30 (smokers with no L-Arginine; mean ± standard deviation), 0.66 ± 0.21 (smokers L-Arginine) and 0.84 ± 0.08 (nonsmokers). Values under CPT were 1.21 ± 0.42 (smokers no L-Arginine), 1.09 ± 0.35 (smokers L-Arginine) and 1.63 ± 0.33 (nonsmokers). In all groups, MBF was significantly increased under CPT compared to the corresponding rest examination (p < 0.05 in all cases). Additionally, MBF under CPT was significantly different between the smokers and the nonsmokers (p = 0.002). MBF at rest was significantly different between the smokers when L-Arginine was given and the nonsmokers (p = 0.035). Conclusion Short-term smokers showed a reduced response to cold both with and without the administration of L-Arginine. However, absolute MBF values under CPT were lower compared to nonsmokers independently of L-Arginine administration.

Abstract
Coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) can be noninvasively measured by phase-contrast cine magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI). Heavy coronary calcification degrades the diagnostic accuracy for the detection of coronary arterial stenosis on computed tomography (CT). The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of CFVR measurement with PC-MRI for detecting significant coronary stenoses in patients with heavy coronary calcification. Sixteen patients (71 ± 8 years) with coronary calcium score above 400 who had suspected moderate coronary stenosis (50-69% diameter stenosis) on CT angiography were prospectively studied. The CFVR values, calculated as the ratio of peak flow velocity during hyperemia to the peak flow velocity at rest, were measured using breath-hold PC-MRI with 3 T system, and were compared with the results of quantitative coronary angiography (QCA). The mean coronary calcium score was 985 ± 378. CFVR was successfully determined with PC-MRI in 17/18 (94%) vessels. Using a threshold of 1.4 for CFVR, the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive value for detecting ≥ 50% stenosis on QCA was 88% (7/8), 89% (8/9), 88% (7/8), 89% (8/9), respectively. When MRI CFVR measurements was added to CT angiography for the evaluation of coronary stenosis, the positive predictive value was 88% (7/8), while the positive predictive value of CT angiography alone was 44% (8/18). PC-MRI can provide noninvasive detection of altered CFVR caused by significant stenosis in patient. CFVR measurement by PC-MRI is useful for diagnosing physiologically significant coronary stenosis in patients with high calcium score on CT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND How to speed the recovery of viable myocardium in chronic total occlusion (CTO) patients after revascularization is still an unsolved problem. Breviscapine is widely used in cardiovascular diseases. However, there has been no study focused on the effect of breviscapine on viable myocardium recovery and left ventricular remodeling after CTO revascularization. MATERIAL AND METHODS We propose to recruit 78 consecutive coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with CTO during a period of 12 months. They will be randomly assigned to receive either breviscapine (40 mg) or placebo in the following 12 months. Blood tests, electrocardiogram, and Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) will be collected at baseline and the follow-up visits at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. Low-dose dobutamine MRI will be applied for the assessment of viable myocardium, microcirculation perfusion, and left ventricular remodeling, and the concentrations of angiogenic cytokine, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) will be investigated at baseline and at 1- and 12-month follow-up. The recovery of viable myocardium after revascularization in CTO patients was the primary endpoint. Improvement of microcirculation perfusion, left ventricular remodeling, peripheral concentrations of VEGF and bFGF as well as MACE will be the secondary endpoints. RESULTS Breviscapine treatment obviously improve the recovery of viable myocardium, myocardial microcirculation perfusion, and left ventricular remodeling after revascularization in CTO patients, and reduce the occurrence of MACE. We also will determine if breviscapine increases the peripheral blood angiogenic cytokine concentrations of VEGF and bFGF. CONCLUSIONS This study will aim to demonstrate the effect of breviscapine on the recovery of viable myocardium and left ventricular remodeling in CTO patients after revascularization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary endothelial function testing using acetylcholine is not routinely available, while non-pharmacological cold pressor testing (CPT) is considered an endothelial stressor. Noninvasive cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) myocardial perfusion reserve index (MPRI) can detect coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). We evaluated if CPT stress CMRI MPRI could detect invasive coronary endothelial dysfunction. METHODS Coronary reactivity testing was performed in 189 women with symptoms and signs of ischemic but no obstructive coronary artery disease as previously described plus CPT stress. Subjects also underwent pharmacologic and CPT stress during CMRI (1.5 T). Statistical analysis comparing CPT MPRI between groups was performed by Welch`s t-test and Mann-Whitney where appropriate. Anderson-Darling test and Levene test were considered to verify the normality and homogeneity of variances assumptions. Correlation analyses between CPT MPRI and both invasive and noninvasive measures of CMD were performed using Spearman correlation. RESULTS While CPT MPRI correlated with pharmacological stress MPRI, it did not correlate with invasive measures of CMD including invasively measured responses to intracoronary (IC) adenosine, IC acetylcholine, CPT, or IC nitroglycerin. Additionally CPT MPRI was not significantly different between subjects with normal compared to abnormal pharm stress MPRI or normal compared to abnormal invasive CMD parameters. CONCLUSION Despite correlation with pharmacological stress MPRI, non-invasive CPT MPRI does not appear to be useful for detecting CMD in symptomatic women.
