Comparison of Cardiorespiratory Fitness between Patients with Mitral Valve Prolapse and Healthy Peers: Findings from Serial Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing. J Cardiovasc Dev Dis 2023; 10:jcdd10040167. [PMID: 37103046 PMCID: PMC10141154 DOI: 10.3390/jcdd10040167] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/07/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Individuals with mitral valve prolapse (MVP) have exercise intolerance even without mitral valve regurgitation. Mitral valve degeneration may progress with aging. We aimed to evaluate the influence of MVP on the cardiopulmonary function (CPF) of individuals with MVP through serial follow-ups from early to late adolescence. Thirty patients with MVP receiving at least two cardiopulmonary exercise tests (CPETs) using a treadmill (MVP group) were retrospectively analyzed. Age-, sex-, and body mass index-matched healthy peers, who also had serial CPETs, were recruited as the control group. The average time from the first CPET to the last CPET was 4.28 and 4.06 years in the MVP and control groups, respectively. At the first CPET, the MVP group had a significantly lower peak rate pressure product (PRPP) than the control group (p = 0.022). At the final CEPT, the MVP group had lower peak metabolic equivalent (MET, p = 0.032) and PRPP (p = 0.031). Moreover, the MVP group had lower peak MET and PRPP as they aged, whereas healthy peers had higher peak MET (p = 0.034) and PRPP (p = 0.047) as they aged. Individuals with MVP had poorer CPF than healthy individuals as they develop from early to late adolescence. It is important for individuals with MVP to receive regular CPET follow-ups.

Efficacy of high-intensity interval training compared with moderate-intensity continuous training on maximal aerobic potency in dogs: Trial protocol for a randomised controlled clinical study. Vet Rec Open 2021; 8:e4. [PMID: 33981438 PMCID: PMC8109980 DOI: 10.1002/vro2.4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2020] [Revised: 01/14/2021] [Accepted: 01/18/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND High-intensity interval training (HIIT) is a more efficient method to improve exercise capacity than moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) because of its greater physiological stimulus. OBJECTIVE The aim of this protocol is to evaluate the efficacy of HIIT on maximal aerobic potency in dogs as compared to MICT. METHODS This protocol is for a randomised, blinded controlled clinical trial, with three parallel groups for the purpose of demonstrating superiority. Thirty dogs aged between 12 and 84 months of both sexes and different breeds will be included. Dogs, before initiating and after finalising the training will perform an incremental exercise test on a treadmill to obtain maximal speed and lactate threshold; resting parameters of heart and respiratory rate, left ventricle chamber and systolic function will be measured. Dogs assigned to each intervention will endure a 42-min session of HIIT or MICT during 12 weeks. HIIT comprises four intervals of 4 min each at a load of 85%, alternating with a 4-min resting period. MICT group will have a continuous load of 60%. The control group will remain in a cage. An intention-to-treat statistical analysis will be implemented. Analysis of covariance will be used to estimate the effect of HIIT compared with MICT training on maximal aerobic potency, aerobic resistance, systolic function at rest, left ventricle chamber measurements and indexes, respiratory rate and HR at rest. CONCLUSION Significant time and effort are invested into training sports/working dogs, which could benefit from improving physical capacity by means of the HIIT methodology.

Abstract
Percutaneous edge-to-edge mitral valve repair, using the MitraClip device for severe mitral regurgitation (MR) was first introduced in 2003. Since then, more than 100,000 cases have been performed worldwide and it remains the most established percutaneous therapy available for the treatment of severe MR. Currently, it is indicated for severe, symptomatic functional MR in patients who continue to have significant symptoms despite optimal guideline directed medical therapy, as well as in symptomatic patients with severe degenerative MR who are deemed too high risk for conventional surgical therapy in the opinion of the heart team. In this paper, we discuss the evolution of the MitraClip device, the clinical studies supporting its use as well as the important concept of proportionate and disproportionate MR.

Abstract
Aims The aim of this study is to evaluate changes in cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) after percutaneous mitral valve repair (PMVR) with MitraClip in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction who are potentially candidates for heart transplantation or destination left ventricular assist device. Methods and results Prospective registry of all consecutive patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and functional mitral regurgitation (MR) underwent elective PMVR between October 2015 and March 2018 in our institution. Patients with preserved or mid‐range left ventricular ejection fraction (>40%), advanced age (>75 years old), or severe co‐morbidities (end‐stage organ damage) were not included. Treadmill exercise testing with respiratory gas exchange analysis was carried out in 11 patients (male, 72.7%; median age, 67 years old) within the month prior to the procedure and at 6 month follow‐up. PMVR was successfully performed in all patients. At 6 month follow‐up, PMVR was associated with an improvement in New York Heart Association functional class (P = 0.021) and a reduction in MR severity (P = 0.013) and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide levels (2805 [1878–5022] vs. 1485 [654–3032] pg/mL; P = 0.012). All patients completed pre‐procedural and post‐procedural CPET, and all the studies showed a respiratory exchange ratio ≥1 and were consistent with sufficient exercise effort. Compared with pre‐procedural CPET, patients showed a significant increase in exercise time (295 [110–335] vs. 405 [261–540] s; P = 0.047), VO2 (9.8 [9.1–13.4] vs. 13.5 [12.1–16.8] mL/kg/min; P = 0.033), ventilatory anaerobic threshold (510 [430–950] vs. 850 [670–1070] mL/kg/min; P = 0.033), peak O2 pulse (7.2 [4.3–8.6] vs. 8.3 [6.2–11.8] mL/beat; P = 0.033), and workload (5 [3–6] vs. 6 [5–8] metabolic equivalents; P = 0.049). Conclusions Percutaneous mitral valve repair with MitraClip was associated with an enhancement in cardiopulmonary performance in patients with systolic heart failure and secondary MR.

Abstract
Background Mitral regurgitation ( MR ) has the potential to impede exercise capacity; it is uncertain whether this is because of regurgitation itself or the underlying cause of valvular insufficiency. Methods and Results The population comprised 3267 patients who underwent exercise treadmill myocardial perfusion imaging and transthoracic echocardiography within 6±8 days. MR was present in 28%, including 176 patients (5%) with moderate or greater MR . Left ventricular systolic function significantly decreased and chamber size increased in relation to MR , paralleling increments in stress and rest myocardial perfusion deficits (all P<0.001). Exercise tolerance (metabolic equivalents of task) decreased stepwise in relation to graded MR severity ( P<0.05). Workload was significantly lower with mild versus no MR (mean±SD, 9.8±3.0 versus 10.1±3.0; P=0.02); magnitude of workload reduction significantly increased among patients with advanced versus those with mild MR (mean±SD, 8.6±3.0 versus 9.8±3.0; P<0.001). MR -associated exercise impairment was accompanied by lower heart rate and blood pressure augmentation and greater dyspnea (all P<0.05). Both functional and nonfunctional MR subgroups demonstrated significantly decreased effort tolerance in relation to MR severity ( P≤0.01); impairment was greater with functional MR ( P=0.04) corresponding to more advanced left ventricular dysfunction and dilation (both P<0.001). Functional MR predicted reduced metabolic equivalent of task-based effort (B=-0.39 [95% CI, -0.62 to -0.17]; P=0.001) independent of MR severity. Among the overall cohort, advanced (moderate or greater) MR was associated with reduced effort tolerance (B=-1.36 [95% CI, -1.80 to -0.93]; P<0.001) and remained significant ( P=0.01) after controlling for age, clinical indexes, stress perfusion defects, and left ventricular dysfunction. Conclusions MR impairs exercise tolerance independent of left ventricular ischemia, dysfunction, and clinical indexes. Magnitude of exercise impairment parallels severity of MR .

Abstract
Secondary mitral valve regurgitation (MR) remains a challenging problem in the diagnostic workup and treatment of patients with heart failure. Although secondary MR is characteristically dynamic in nature and sensitive to changes in ventricular geometry and loading, current therapy is mainly focused on resting conditions. An exercise-induced increase in secondary MR, however, is associated with impaired exercise capacity and increased mortality. In an era where a multitude of percutaneous solutions are emerging for the treatment of patients with heart failure, it becomes important to address the dynamic component of secondary MR during exercise as well. A critical reappraisal of the underlying disease mechanisms, in particular the dynamic component during exercise, is of timely importance. This review summarizes the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in the dynamic deterioration of secondary MR during exercise, its functional and prognostic impact, and the way current treatment options affect the dynamic lesion and exercise hemodynamics in general.

Abstract
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the second most common form of valvular disease requiring surgery. Correct identification of surgical candidates and optimising the timing of surgery are key in management. For primary MR, this relies upon a balance between the peri-operative risks and rates of successful repair in patients undergoing early surgery when asymptomatic with the potential risk of irreversible left ventricular dysfunction if intervention is performed too late. For secondary MR, recognition that this is a highly dynamic condition where MR severity may change is key, although data on outcomes in determining whether concomitant valve intervention is performed with revascularisation has raised questions regarding timing of surgery. There has been substantial interest in the use of stress echocardiography to risk stratify patients in mitral regurgitation. This article reviews the role of stress echocardiography in both primary and secondary mitral regurgitation and discusses how this can help clinicians tackle the challenges of this prevalent condition.

Abstract
Mitral valve disease is a frequent cause of heart failure and death. Emerging evidence indicates that the mitral valve is not a passive structure, but--even in adult life--remains dynamic and accessible for treatment. This concept motivates efforts to reduce the clinical progression of mitral valve disease through early detection and modification of underlying mechanisms. Discoveries of genetic mutations causing mitral valve elongation and prolapse have revealed that growth factor signalling and cell migration pathways are regulated by structural molecules in ways that can be modified to limit progression from developmental defects to valve degeneration with clinical complications. Mitral valve enlargement can determine left ventricular outflow tract obstruction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and might be stimulated by potentially modifiable biological valvular-ventricular interactions. Mitral valve plasticity also allows adaptive growth in response to ventricular remodelling. However, adverse cellular and mechanobiological processes create relative leaflet deficiency in the ischaemic setting, leading to mitral regurgitation with increased heart failure and mortality. Our approach, which bridges clinicians and basic scientists, enables the correlation of observed disease with cellular and molecular mechanisms, leading to the discovery of new opportunities for improving the natural history of mitral valve disease.

[PMID: 26162945 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2015.05.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2015] [Revised: 05/09/2015] [Accepted: 05/27/2015] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to investigate mortality following transcatheter mitral valve repair with the MitraClip System (MC) (Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA, USA) in patients with mitral regurgitation and moderate-to-severe symptomatic heart failure in comparison to mortality predicted by the Seattle Heart Failure Model (SHFM) and the heart failure calculator of the meta-analysis global group in chronic heart failure (MAGGIC). METHODS AND RESULTS This retrospective study included 194 consecutive patients, who received a MC implantation between 2009 and 2013 at our institution. The observed mortality was compared with that predicted by the SHFM and the MAGGIC after 1 year: 24% observed, 18% by SHFM (p=0.185) and 20.9% by MAGGIC (p=0.542). At 2 years: 32% observed vs. 33% by SHFM (p=0.919). The subgroup of patients with end-stage heart failure and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) >10,000pg/ml (n=41) had significantly worse mortality after 1 year (49%) than predicted by SHFM (24%, p=0.034) and MAGGIC (24.8%, p=0.041). CONCLUSION In the overall patient cohort defined by 3+ to 4+ mitral valve regurgitation with New York Heart Association III and IV symptomatic heart failure, mortality following MC is consistent with that predicted by SHFM and MAGGIC for patients that are not at high risk. However, the subset of patients with severe heart failure defined by NTproBNP >10,000pg/ml had worse than predicted mortality and may not benefit from MC therapy, mainly due to a high 30-day mortality.

Abstract
Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is frequent in patients with heart failure (HF). It develops as a consequence of left ventricle (LV) geometry alterations, causing imbalance between increased tethering forces and decreased closing forces exerted on the mitral valve apparatus during systole.FMR is known to change at rest and during effort, due to preload-afterload changes, myocardial ischemia, and/or LV dysfunction. Despite optimized medical therapy, an FMR can be responsible of shortness of breath limiting quality of life and decompensation. In this report, we present a case of dynamic FMR treated with MitraClip.MitraClip implantation is a successful and innovative opportunity for HF patients with FMR.

Abstract
Ischemic mitral regurgitation is an important consequence of LV remodeling after myocardial infarction. Echocardiographic diagnosis and assessment of ischemic mitral regurgitation are critical to gauge its adverse effects on prognosis and to attempt to tailor rational treatment strategy. There is no single approach to the echocardiographic assessment of ischemic mitral regurgitation: standard echocardiographic measures of mitral regurgitation severity and of LV dysfunction are complemented by assessments of displacement of the papillary muscles and quantitative indices of mitral valve deformation. Development of novel approaches to understand mitral valve geometry by echocardiography may improve understanding of the mechanism, clinical trajectory, and reparability of ischemic mitral regurgitation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After acute myocardial infarction (MI) coronary microvascular impairment and reduced exercise capacity are both determinant of prognosis. OBJECTIVE We tested whether non-invasive coronary flow reserve (CFR) performed after MI predicts post-MI exercise capacity (EC). METHODS Fifty consecutive patients (pts) (mean age 56.5±11years, 30% women) with a first reperfused ST-elevation anterior MI, and sustained TIMI 3 flow after mechanical reperfusion, underwent prospectively non-invasive CFR in the distal part of the left anterior descending artery (LAD), using intravenous adenosine infusion (0.14mg/kg per minute, within 2min), within 24h after successful primary coronary angioplasty (CFR 1), and 4±1.6months later after a period of convalescence and a cardiac rehabilitation program (CFR 2). CFR was defined as peak hyperaemic LAD flow velocity divided by baseline flow velocity. All pts also underwent semi-supine exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) the same day of CFR 2. ESE was performed at an initial workload of 25-30watts with a 20watts increase at 2-minute intervals. Beta-blockers were withheld 24h before ESE. RESULTS The mean CFR 2 increased significantly when compared to CFR 1 (2.9±0.65 versus 1.9±0.4, P<0.01). During ESE, percentage of maximal predict heart rate achieved was 82±12%, maximal workload 95±30watts, exercise duration 486±155s, the ratio of double product 3.1±0.8, and EC 5.8±1.1 metabolic equivalents. No ischemia was induced during ESE in all pts, and the degree of mitral regurgitation did not differ significantly between rest and exercise. CFR 2 was significantly correlated to all indices related to EC (all, P<0.01), whereas CFR 1 was correlated to LV systolic function at follow-up (P<0.05) but not to EC. In multivariate analysis including age, sex, and body mass index, CFR 2 remained an independent predictor of EC (P<0.01). CONCLUSION Contrarily to acute CFR, CFR at follow-up is an independent predictor of EC after reperfused anterior MI. This suggests that the improvement of the coronary microcirculation is closely linked to the physical aptitude after MI.
