Abstract
A 48-year-old man visited our emergency room after experiencing sudden left back pain, diaphoresis, and nausea. The patient underwent physical and laboratory examinations. Physical examination revealed tenderness in the left costovertebral angle. Laboratory examination revealed a slight elevation in D-dimer levels. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a bilateral pulmonary embolism and left renal infarction. Back pain was resolved following anticoagulation therapy with heparin. Transesophageal echocardiography revealed a patent foramen ovale (PFO). The patient was discharged on an anticoagulant, apixaban. Identifying the cause of paradoxical embolisms, such as an atrial septal defect or PFO, in cases with an arterial embolism in a young patient with no underlying disease is important.

Differences in disease severity and prognosis of exercise-induced right-to-left shunt between idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension patients. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:976730. [PMID: 36578835 PMCID: PMC9791184 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.976730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective Whether exercise-induced venous-to-systemic shunt (EIS) during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) has different manifestations or characteristics in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) patients remains unknown. We explored the differences in hemodynamics, echocardiography, and prognosis between IPAH and CTEPH patients with and without EIS. Methods We conducted a retrospective cross-sectional cohort study and included 161 PH patients at Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital. Demographic, echocardiography, pulmonary hemodynamic, and CPET variables were compared between patients with and without EIS stratified by IPAH and CTEPH. EIS was determined by CPET. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to explore independent influencing factors of EIS. Cox survival analysis was used to quantify the impact of EIS on the prognosis of patients. Results Exercise-induced venous-to-systemic shunt was found in approximately 17.4% of 86 IPAH patients and 20% of 75 CTEPH patients. All-cause mortality occurred in 43 (26.7%) patients during a median follow-up of 6.5 years. Compared with those without EIS, patients with EIS had higher peak end-tidal O2 and lower VO2/VE and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE). Among the IPAH patients, EIS was associated with lower cardiac output, cardiac index, mixed venous oxygen saturation, VO2/VE, and TAPSE and higher VE/VCO2 and right ventricular end-diastolic transverse diameter. Logistic regression analysis indicated that VO2/VE was an independent factor influencing whether IPAH patients developed EIS during CPET. Cox logistic regression indicated that female IPAH patients or IPAH patients with higher VO2/VE and EIS had a better prognosis. Female IPAH patients had better 10-year survival. In IPAH patients without EIS, patients with higher VO2/VE had better 10-year survival. However, compared with CTEPH patients without EIS, those with EIS had similar echocardiographic, hemodynamic, CPET parameter results and 10-year survival. Conclusion Exercise-induced venous-to-systemic shunt exhibits different profiles among IPAH and CTEPH patients. Among IPAH patients, those with EIS had worse peak end-tidal O2, VO2/VE, and TAPSE than those without EIS. VO2/VE was an independent factor of EIS among IPAH patients. IPAH patients with EIS, female sex or higher VO2/VE had better survival. However, the association between EIS and PAH severity or prognosis in CTEPH patients needs to be further explored.

Abstract
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is the most common anatomical cause of an interatrial shunt. It is usually asymptomatic but may cause paradoxical embolism, manifesting as stroke, myocardial infarction or visceral/peripheral ischaemia. PFO is a risk factor for stroke and may be associated with migraine with aura. New evidence suggests PFO closure reduces the risk of recurrent ischaemic stroke in a highly selected population of stroke survivors: those aged 60 years or younger with a cryptogenic stroke syndrome, a large right-to-left shunt, an atrial septal aneurysm and no evidence of atrial fibrillation. They benefit from percutaneous PFO closure in addition to antiplatelet therapy, rather than antiplatelet therapy alone. Current evidence does not support PFO closure in the treatment of migraine.

Abstract
A woman, aged 52 years, experienced severe headache, confusion, nausea, dizziness, and diplopia for three days. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed multiple acute and subacute infarcts suggestive of embolic events. Dermatological examination was notable for splinter hemorrhages and macular patches on the fingernails and feet, respectively. Further diagnostic imaging of the chest and abdomen revealed pulmonary emboli and an ovarian mass with omental deposits and splenic infarcts. Fine-needle aspiration cytology and surgery confirmed a diagnosis of high-grade serous adenocarcinoma of the ovary with clear cell features. Extensive evaluation for malignancy should be considered on a case-by-case basis for patients with thromboembolic disease and an initial negative diagnostic evaluation for stroke. Consideration of patent foramen ovale closure is reasonable in patients with malignancy who are at risk for recurrent strokes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To highlight recent advancements in the management of acute ischemic stroke patients with patent foramen ovale (PFO). RECENT FINDINGS One significant recent development was publication of long-term follow-up data from the RESPECT trial demonstrating evidence in favor of PFO closure over medical management. This data subsequently led to FDA approval for AMPLATZER™ septal occluder in the treatment of patients aged 18 to 60 years with both PFO and no other determined etiology for ischemic stroke, otherwise referred to as embolic stroke of undetermined source. Several subsequent closure trial results have recently been published, which also demonstrated benefit of PFO closure over medical management for ischemic stroke risk reduction in select patients. Based on the results of the more recently published REDUCE trial, the FDA granted approval for the GORE™ septal occluder. There is current, well-established evidence that PFO closure for secondary stroke prevention is effective in select cases.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to analyze right-to-left shunt-related dizziness in three patients without hypoxemia. Methods Case 1 was a 47-year-old man with a history of cerebral infarction 8 years previously and recurrent dizziness for > 6 months. Patent foramen ovale (PFO) was found with a severe right-to-left shunt. Case 2 was a 50-year-old man with acute stroke. He had a history of repeated dizziness for > 4 years. He was diagnosed with PFO with a severe right-to-left shunt after admission. Case 3 was a 73-year-old woman with recurrent dizziness for > 10 months. Pulmonary arteriovenous fistula was diagnosed upon admission. No patients had hypoxemia. Results After percutaneous PFO occlusion in Cases 1 and 2, the patients were followed up for 6 months and 1 year, respectively. Two patients had relief of dizziness without recurrence. In Case 3, the pallor improved and the dizziness was relieved after pulmonary arteriovenous fistula embolization and did not recur over a 6-month follow-up. Conclusions There was a possible association between a severe right-to-left shunt and dizziness, although hypoxemia was absent in the cases. Intervention to eliminate a left-to-right shunt can improve dizziness in patients without hypoxemia with a severe right-to-left shunt.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cryptogenic strokes can be attributed to paradoxical emboli through patent foramen ovale (PFO). However, the effectiveness of PFO closure in preventing recurrent stroke is uncertain and the results of previous randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have been inconclusive. Hence, this study pro- vides an updated meta-analysis of all RCTs comparing PFO closure with medical therapy for secondary prevention of cryptogenic stroke. METHODS All RCTs were identified by a comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Collaboration Central Register of Controlled Trials, Scopus, and Clinicaltrials.gov. The primary outcome was recurrent ischemic stroke and secondary outcomes were transient ischemic at- tack (TIA), all-cause mortality, new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF), serious adverse events, and major bleeding. RESULTS Five RCTs with 3440 participants were included in the present study (1829 patients under- went PFO closure and 1611 were treated medically). Pooled analysis showed a statistically significant reduction in the rate of recurrent stroke with PFO closure in comparison to medical therapy (OR 0.41; 95% CI 0.19-0.90; p = 0.03). However, there were no statistically significant reductions of recurrent TIAs (OR 0.77; 95% CI 0.51-1.14; p = 0.19) or all-cause mortality (OR 0.76; 95% CI 0.35-1.65; p = 0.48). The risk of developing new-onset AF was increased significantly with PFO closure (OR 4.74; 95% CI 2.33-9.61; p < 0.0001), but no significant differences in terms of serious adverse events or major bleeding between both groups. CONCLUSIONS Patent foramen ovale closure in adults with recent cryptogenic stroke was associated with a lower rate of recurrent strokes in comparison with medical therapy alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with history of cryptogenic stroke are more likely to have a patent foramen ovale (PFO) and should be managed with antithrombotic agents, while the alternative option is percutaneous closure of PFOs. Our aim was to perform a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing percutaneous closure vs. medical treatment for patients with PFO and prior cryptogenic stroke. METHODS Medline, Scopus and Cochrane databases were reviewed. A random-effect model meta-analysis was used and I-square was utilized to assess the heterogeneity. New ischemic stroke was defined as the primary endpoint. A sensitivity analysis was performed for Amplatzer device. Subgroup analyses were performed for different patient and PFO characteristics for the composite endpoints as defined by the included RCTs. RESULTS In total of 3440 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Closure devices were superior to medical therapy for prevention of recurrent ischemic strokes (HR = 0.29; CI: 0.02-0.56), but were associated with increased risk of new onset of atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (RR = 4.67; CI: 2.22-9.81). However, in the sensitivity analysis for Amplatzer device, there was no difference between the two groups in new onset of atrial arrhythmias. Closure devices were superior across all different subgroups when compared to medical treatment with the exception of patients with a small shunt. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis shows that closure devices for patients with PFO and history of cryptogenic stroke can significantly decrease the risk of a new ischemic stroke. The use of Amplatzer device was not associated with increased risk of newly diagnosed atrial arrhythmias.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study sought to investigate the prevalence of atrial septal aneurysms in the paediatric population and to define coexisting abnormalities and their incidence. BACKGROUND Few papers refer to the prevalence of atrial septal aneurysms in childhood. METHODS We enrolled a total of 4522 children aged more than 12 months who underwent a transthoracic echocardiography. Atrial septal aneurysm was defined as a protrusion of the interatrial septum or part of it >15 mm beyond the plane of the atrial septum or phasic excursion of the interatrial septum during the cardiorespiratory cycle of at least 15 mm in total amplitude and a diameter of the base of the aneurysm of at least 15 mm. RESULTS Atrial septal aneurysms were found in 47 children (1.04%). They involved almost the entire septum in 14 patients (28.89%) and were limited to the fossa ovalis in 33 (71.11%). An atrial septal aneurysm was an isolated structural defect in 17 (35.56%). In 30 (64.44%) patients, it was associated with interatrial shunting - atrial septal defect and patent foramen ovale. At the echo follow-up after a year, no changes were recorded. CONCLUSIONS Prevalence of atrial septal aneurysms is almost 1%. The most common abnormalities associated are interatrial shunts, that is, a patent foramen ovale and an atrial septal defect. From a medical point of view, it is suggested that no action is to be taken during childhood, as a child with an atrial septal aneurysm is not at increased risk compared with a child without one. Follow-up is scheduled on an individual basis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The cause of ischemic stroke remains unclear, or cryptogenic, in as many as 35% of patients with stroke. Not knowing the cause of stroke restricts optimal implementation of prevention therapy and limits stroke research. We demonstrate how gene expression profiles in blood can be used in conjunction with a measure of infarct location on neuroimaging to predict a probable cause in cryptogenic stroke. METHODS The cause of cryptogenic stroke was predicted using previously described profiles of differentially expressed genes characteristic of patients with cardioembolic, arterial, and lacunar stroke. RNA was isolated from peripheral blood of 131 cryptogenic strokes and compared with profiles derived from 149 strokes of known cause. Each sample was run on Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays. Cause of cryptogenic stroke was predicted using gene expression in blood and infarct location. RESULTS Cryptogenic strokes were predicted to be 58% cardioembolic, 18% arterial, 12% lacunar, and 12% unclear etiology. Cryptogenic stroke of predicted cardioembolic etiology had more prior myocardial infarction and higher CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc scores compared with stroke of predicted arterial etiology. Predicted lacunar strokes had higher systolic and diastolic blood pressures and lower National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale compared with predicted arterial and cardioembolic strokes. Cryptogenic strokes of unclear predicted etiology were less likely to have a prior transient ischemic attack or ischemic stroke. CONCLUSIONS Gene expression in conjunction with a measure of infarct location can predict a probable cause in cryptogenic strokes. Predicted groups require further evaluation to determine whether relevant clinical, imaging, or therapeutic differences exist for each group.
