Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemophilia is an X-linked inherited disorder primarily affecting males, its major types are type A (deficiency in factor VIII) and B (deficiency in factor IX), and is considered to be the most common severe congenital coagulation factor deficiency. The present study was designed to test whether any differences in left ventricular (LV) rotational mechanics could be demonstrated between male patients with hemophilia and healthy controls using three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (3DSTE)-derived virtual LV models. METHODS The present study consisted of 17 patients with hemophilia, however, 3 patients were excluded due to insufficient image quality. In the remaining patient population, 12 patients had hemophilia A and 2 patients had hemophilia B (mean age: 42.2±18.9 years, all males). The control group comprised 16 age-matched healthy subjects (46.0±5.9 years, all males). RESULTS None of the routine two-dimensional echocardiographic data differ between patients with hemophilia and controls. None of the patients and controls showed ≥ grade 1 valvular regurgitations and had valvular stenoses. In one subject, the near absence of LV twist called as LV "rigid body rotation" could be detected, data of which were managed separately. While 3DSTE-derived apical LV rotation was 3.65 degrees, basal LV rotation proved to be 3.57 degrees leading to 0.08-degree LV apico-basal gradient suggesting counterclockwise LV "rigid body rotation". In the remaining patients, both LV apical rotation (7.25±6.20 vs. 10.39±4.16 degrees, P<0.02) and LV twist (10.24±5.60 vs. 14.38±3.93 degrees, P<0.003) showed significant impairment in patients with hemophilia. CONCLUSIONS LV rotational abnormalities are present in hemophilia with reduced LV apical rotation and twist.

Effects of the dietary approach to stop hypertension (DASH) diet on blood pressure, blood glucose, and lipid profile in adolescents with hemophilia: A randomized clinical trial. Food Sci Nutr 2021; 9:145-153. [PMID: 33473278 PMCID: PMC7802541 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.1972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2020] [Revised: 10/12/2020] [Accepted: 10/13/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Children with hemophilia are an enhanced risk of modifiable cardiovascular and metabolic abnormalities. There is currently no nutritional guideline to prevent or manage cardiometabolic risk factors in these patients. Therefore, the present study sought to investigate the effect of the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet on cardiovascular and metabolic risk factors among children with hemophilia. In this parallel randomized clinical trial, 40 children (all male) with hemophilia were randomly allocated to the DASH group (n = 20) or control group (n = 20) for 10 weeks. The intervention group received the DASH diet (50%-55% of energy from carbohydrate, 27%-30% of energy from fat and 16%-18% energy from protein), and the control group received nutritional recommendations based on healthy eating practices. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), fasting blood sugar (FBS), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) were measured at the beginning and end of the study. Serum vitamin C was measured as a biomarker of compliance with the DASH diet. Study was registered at IRCT.ir (IRCT20130903014551N6). A significant increase in serum vitamin C in the DASH diet group was observed compared to the control group (p = .001), indicating good compliance with the DASH diet. There was a significant reduction in SBP (-0.48 mmHg), DBP (-0.48 mmHg), FBS (-5.86 mg/dl), TC (-16.07 mg/dl), TG (-17.21 mg/dl), and LDL-C (-9.79 mg/dl), and a significant increase in HDL-C (3.39 mg/dl), in the DASH diet group compared with the control group. Adherence to the DASH diet in children with hemophilia yielded beneficial effects in blood pressure, lipid profiles, and FBS.
