Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) frequently coexists with obstructive coronary artery disease (OCAD), which are at increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the impact of coronary obstruction on myocardial microcirculation function in T2DM patients, and explore independent predictors of reduced coronary microvascular perfusion. METHODS Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scanning was performed on 297 T2DM patients {188 patients without OCAD [T2DM(OCAD -)] and 109 with [T2DM(OCAD +)]} and 89 control subjects. CMR-derived perfusion parameters, including upslope, max signal intensity (MaxSI), and time to maximum signal intensity (TTM) in global and segmental (basal, mid-ventricular, and apical slices) were measured and compared among observed groups. According to the median of Gensini score (64), T2DM(OCAD +) patients were subdivided into two groups. Univariable and multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of microcirculation dysfunction. RESULTS T2DM(OCAD -) patients, when compared to control subjects, had reduced upslope and prolonged TTM in global and all of three slices (all P < 0.05). T2DM(OCAD +) patients showed a significantly more severe impairment of microvascular perfusion than T2DM(OCAD -) patients and control subjects with a more marked decline upslope and prolongation TTM in global and three slices (all P < 0.05). From control subjects, through T2DM(OCAD +) patients with Gensini score ≤ 64, to those patients with Gensini score > 64 group, the upslope declined and TTM prolonged progressively in global and mid-ventricular slice (all P < 0.05). The presence of OCAD was independently correlated with reduced global upslope (β = - 0.104, P < 0.05) and global TTM (β = 0.105, P < 0.05) in patients with T2DM. Among T2DM(OCAD +) patients, Gensini score was associated with prolonged global TTM (r = 0.34, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Coronary artery obstruction in the context of T2DM exacerbated myocardial microcirculation damage. The presence of OCAD and Gensini score were independent predictors of decreased microvascular function. TRIAL REGISTRATION Retrospectively registered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Attenuating cardiac fibroblasts activation contributes to reducing excessive extracellular matrix deposition and cardiac structural remodeling in hypertensive hearts. Acacetin plays a protective role in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy and ischemia/reperfusion injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential molecular mechanisms underlying the protective role of acacetin on hypertension-induced cardiac fibrosis. METHODS Echocardiography, histopathological methods, and Western blotting techniques were used to evaluate the anti-fibrosis effects in spontaneous hypertensive rat (SHR) which were daily intragastrically administrated with acacetin (10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg) for 6 weeks. Angiotensin II (Ang II) was used to induce cellular fibrosis in human cardiac fibroblasts (HCFs) in the absence and presence of acacetin treatment for 48 h. RESULTS Acacetin significantly alleviated hypertension-induced increase in left ventricular (LV) posterior wall thickness and LV mass index in SHR. The expressions of collagen-1, collagen-III, and alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) were remarkedly decreased after treatment with acacetin (n = 6, p < 0.05). In cultured HCFs, acacetin significantly attenuated Ang II-induced migration and proliferation (n = 6, p < 0.05). Moreover, acacetin substantially inhibited Ang II-induced upregulation of collagen-1 and collagen-III (n = 6, p < 0.05) and downregulated the expression of alpha-SMA in HCFs. Additionally, acacetin decreased the expression of TGF-β1, p-Smad3/Smad3, and p-AKT and p-mTOR but increased the expression of Smad7 (n = 6, p < 0.05). Further studies found that acacetin inhibited TGF-β1 agonist SRI and AKT agonist SC79 caused fibrotic effect. CONCLUSION Acacetin inhibits the hypertension-associated cardiac fibrotic processes through regulating TGF-β/Smad3, AKT/mTOR signal transduction pathways.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1162500. [PMID: 37378401 PMCID: PMC10291123 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1162500] [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: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Diabetes predisposes affected individuals to impaired myocardial perfusion and ischemia, leading to cardiac dysfunction. Increased myocardial stiffness is an independent and significant risk factor in diastolic dysfunction. This study sought to estimate myocardial stiffness in Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients using the intrinsic wave velocity propagation (IVP) along the longitudinal wall motion during late diastole and evaluate the value of IVP in assessing cardiac function and structure. Methods 87 and 53 participants with and without T2DM (control group) were enrolled. Of the 87 T2DM patients (DM group), 43 were complicated with hypertension (DM + H group), and 44 were not (DM-H group). Ultrasound parameters were measured and analyzed, including color M-mode flow propagation velocity, global longitudinal systolic strain (GLS), and IVP. Results IVP was higher in the DM group than in the control group (1.62 ± 0.25 m/s and 1.40 ± 0.19 m/s, P < 0.001). After stratification for hypertension, IVP in both DM + H (1.71 ± 0.25 m/s) and DM-H (1.53 ± 0.20 m/s) groups were found to be significantly higher than that in the control group (1.40 ± 0.19 m/s); also, the difference of IVP between DM + H and DM-H group reached statistical significance. Moreover, IVP was significantly correlated with flow propagation velocity during early diastole (Pve) (r = -0.580, P < 0.001), flow propagation velocity during late diastole (Pva) (r = 0.271, P < 0.001), GLS (r = 0.330, P < 0.001), interventricular septal thickness at end-diastole (IVSd) (r = 0.321, P < 0.001), blood glucose (r = 0.246, P < 0.003), systolic blood pressure (r = 0.370, P < 0.001) and diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.389, P < 0.001). Conclusions The results indicated the application potential of IVP in assessing the early detection of cardiac function changes noninvasively and sensitively. The correlation with myocardial stiffness warrants further studies to substantiate its potential clinical utility.

Int J Cardiol 2023:S0167-5273(23)00738-6. [PMID: 37257517 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2023.05.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous syndrome. Diabetes may identify an essential phenotype that significantly affects the prognosis of these patients. The WATCH-DM risk score has been validated for predicting the risk of heart failure in outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but its ability to predict clinical outcomes in HFpEF patients with T2DM is unknown. We aimed to assess whether this risk score could predict the prognosis of diabetic phenotype patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction. METHODS We enrolled retrospectively 414 patients with HFpEF (70.03 ± 8.654 years, 58.70% female), including 203 (49.03%) type 2 diabetics. Diabetic HFpEF patients were stratified by baseline WATCH-DM risk score. RESULTS Diabetic HFpEF patients exhibited a trend toward more concentric remodeling/hypertrophy than nondiabetic HFpEF patients. When analyzed as a continuous variable, per 1-point increase in the WATCH-DM risk score was associated with increased risks of all-cause death (HR 1.181), cardiovascular death (HR 1.239), any hospitalization (HR 1.082), and HF hospitalization (HR 1.097). The AUC for the WATCH-DM risk score in predicting incident cardiovascular death (0.7061, 95% CI 0.6329-0.7792) was higher than that of all-cause death, any hospitalization, or HF hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS As a high-risk phenotype for heart failure, diabetic HFpEF necessitates early risk stratification and specific treatment. To the best of our knowledge, the current study is the first to demonstrate that the WATCH-DM score predicts poor outcomes in diabetic HFpEF patients. Its convenience may allow for quick risk assessments in busy clinical settings.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of tegretol on oxidative stress, serum inflammatory factors, and left ventricular function in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 70 AMI patients who received PCI in the emergency department of our hospital from January 2021 to December 2021 were collected. The patients in the control group were treated with aspirin, clopidogrel, and heparin sodium during the perioperative period, and the patients in the study group were treated with tegretol. The levels of oxidative stress, serum inflammatory factors, and left ventricular function index were compared between the two groups. The patients in the control group were treated with TT ((12.00 ± 2.05) s), APTT ((35.50 ± 4.19) s), PT ((16.60 ± 1.58) s), TT ((15.90 ± 2.14) s) APTT ((30.40 ± 3.80) s), and PT ((14.30 ± 1.45) s)) and were comparable (P > 0.05), and the difference was statistically significant (t = 8.210, 4.600, 7.010, P < 0.001). There was no comparable difference in the level of oxidative stress index before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, there was significant difference in MDA ((14.53 ± 2.14) mmol/L), SOD ((120.45 ± 8.17) U/L), MDA ((11.15 ± 2.02) mmol/L), and SOD ((129.86 ± 8.55) U/L) in the control group (t = 7.320, 5.099, P < 0.001). The levels of inflammatory factors in patients before treatment were not comparable (P > 0.05). After treatment, there were levels of IL-6 ((3.20 ± 1.05) ng/L), CRP ((4.80 ± 1.16) mg/L), MPO ((196.78 ± 21.51) mg/L) and TNF-α ((3.96 ± 0.80) pmol/L), IL-6 ((1.95 ± 0.80) ng/L), CRP ((3.10 ± 1.02) mg/L), MPO ((163.60 ± 21.10) mg/L), and TNF-α in a study group level ((3.05 ± 0.70) pmol/L), with statistically significant difference (t = 5.187, 6.028, 6.031, 4.689,P < 0.001). Before treatment, there was no comparable difference in the level of left ventricular function index (P > 0.05). After treatment, there was significant difference in LVEF ((46.10 ± 2.39) %) and LVDD ((52.06 ± 1.07) mm), LVEF ((56.85 ± 2.33) %), and LVDD ((48.75 ± 1.02) mm) in the control group (t = 17.640, 21.540, P < 0.001). Tegretol as an adjunctive therapy for emergency PCI patients with acute myocardial infarction can effectively improve postoperative coagulation function, reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction, and improve cardiac function indicators. It has a positive clinical value.

Abstract
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) confers considerable morbidity and mortality in diabetes. However, the role of CAD in additive effect of left ventricular (LV) function has rarely been explored in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. This study aimed to investigate how CAD affect LV systolic and diastolic function in T2DM patients. Materials and methods A total of 282 T2DM patients {104 patients with CAD [T2DM (CAD +)] and 178 without [T2DM (CAD −)]} and 83 sex- and age- matched healthy controls underwent cardiac magnetic resonance scanning. LV structure, function, global strains [including systolic peak strain (PS), peak systolic (PSSR) and diastolic strain rate (PDSR) in radial, circumferential and longitudinal directions] and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) parameters were measured. T2DM (CAD +) patients were divided into two subgroups based on the median of Gensini score (60) which was calculated to assess the severity of CAD. Multivariable linear regression analyses were constructed to investigate the determinants of reduced LV function. Results Compared with normal controls, T2DM (CAD −) patients exhibited increased LV end-diastolic and end-systolic volume index and decreased LV global strains, while T2DM(CAD +) patients showed more marked increase and decrease than T2DM(CAD-) and healthy controls, except for longitudinal PDSR (PDSR-L) (all P < 0.017). All of LV global strains demonstrated a progressive decrease from normal controls, through Gensini score ≤ 60, to Gensini score > 60 group, except for PDSR-L (all P < 0.017). CAD was an independent predictor of reduced LV global circumferential PS (GCPS, β = 0.22, p < 0.001), PSSR (PSSR-C, β = 0.17, p = 0.005), PDSR (PDSR-C, β = 0.22, p < 0.001), global radial PS (GRPS, β = 0.19, p = 0.001), and global longitudinal PS (GLPS, β = 0.18, p = 0.003) in T2DM. The Gensini score was associated with decreased GCPS, PSSR-C, PDSR-C, GRPS, and GLPS in T2DM (CAD +) (all p < 0.05). Conclusion CAD has an additive deleterious effect on LV systolic and diastolic function in T2DM patients. Among T2DM (CAD +) patients, the Gensini score is associated with reduced LV contractile and diastolic function. Trial registration Retrospectively registered

Arterial and Cardiac Remodeling Associated With Extra Weight Gain in an Isolated Abdominal Obesity Cohort. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:771022. [PMID: 34805324 PMCID: PMC8602697 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.771022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: This study aims to assess the changes in cardiovascular remodeling attributable to bodyweight gain in a middle-aged abdominal obesity cohort. A remodeling worsening might explain the increase in cardiovascular risk associated with a dynamic of weight gain. Methods: Seventy-five middle-aged subjects (56 ± 5 years, 38 women) with abdominal obesity and no known cardiovascular disease underwent MRI-based examinations at baseline and at a 6.1 ± 1.2-year follow-up to monitor cardiovascular remodeling and hemodynamic variables, most notably the effective arterial elastance (Ea). Ea is a proxy of the arterial load that must be overcome during left ventricular (LV) ejection, with increased EA resulting in concentric LV remodeling. Results: Sixteen obese subjects had significant weight gain (>7%) during follow-up (WG+), whereas the 59 other individuals did not (WG-). WG+ and WG- exhibited significant differences in the baseline to follow-up evolutions of several hemodynamic parameters, notably diastolic and mean blood pressures (for mean blood pressure, WG+: +9.3 ± 10.9 mmHg vs. WG-: +1.7 ± 11.8 mmHg, p = 0.022), heart rate (WG+: +0.6 ± 9.4 min-1 vs. -8.9 ± 11.5 min-1, p = 0.003), LV concentric remodeling index (WG: +0.08 ± 0.16 g.mL-1 vs. WG-: -0.02 ± 0.13 g.mL-1, p = 0.018) and Ea (WG+: +0.20 ± 0.28 mL mmHg-1 vs. WG-: +0.01 ± 0.30 mL mmHg-1, p = 0.021). The evolution of the LV concentric remodeling index and Ea were also strongly correlated in the overall obese population (p < 0.001, R2 = 0.31). Conclusions: A weight gain dynamic is accompanied by increases in arterial load and load-related concentric LV remodeling in an isolated abdominal obesity cohort. This remodeling could have a significant impact on cardiovascular risk.
