Abstract
Globally, cardiovascular diseases are still the leading cause of death. Numerous methods are used to diagnose cardiovascular pathologies; there is still a place for straightforward and noninvasive techniques, such as electrocardiogram (ECG). Depolarization and repolarization parameters, including QT interval and its derivatives, are well studied. However, the Tpeak-Tend interval is a novel and promising ECG marker with growing evidence for its potential role in predicting malignant arrhythmias. In this review, we discuss the association between the Tpeak-Tend interval and several cardiovascular diseases, including long QT syndrome, cardiomyopathies, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and obesity, which constitutes one of the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Background: Overweight and obesity are important risk factors in the development of cardiovascular diseases. New repolarization markers, such as the Tpeak-Tend interval and JTpeak intervals, have not yet been profoundly studied in obese patients. The study aims to analyze whether, in patients with obesity and overweight, repolarization markers, including the Tpeak-Tend interval, are prolonged and simultaneously check the frequency of other ECG pathologies in a 12-lead ECG in this group of patients. Methods: A study group consisted of 181 adults (90 females and 91 males) with overweight and first-class obesity. The participants completed a questionnaire, and the ECG was performed and analyzed. Results: When analyzing the classic markers, only QT dispersion was significantly higher in obese people. The Tpeak-Tend parameter (97.08 ms ± 23.38 vs. 89.74 ms ± 12.88, respectively), its dispersion, and JTpeak-JTend parameters were statistically significantly longer in the obese group than in the controls. There were also substantial differences in P-wave, QRS duration, and P-wave dispersion, which were the highest in obese people. Tpeak-Tend was positively correlated with body mass and waist circumference, while JTpeak was with BMI, hip circumference, and WHR. Tpeak/JT was positively correlated with WHR and BMI. In backward stepwise multiple regression analysis for JTpeak-WHR, type 2 diabetes and smoking had the highest statistical significance. Conclusions: Only selected repolarization markers are significantly prolonged in patients with class 1 obesity and, additionally, in this group, we identified more pathologies of P wave as well as prolonged QRS duration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Roxadustat is a novel oral medication used to treat anemia in CKD patients. Several studies have shown that Roxadustat can alleviate anemia in CKD patients by increasing hemoglobin levels and regulating iron metabolism. We aimed to evaluate the effect of Roxadustat on ventricular repolarization in PD patients. This study may provide a new integrated approach to the assessment and treatment of CKD. METHODS The present prospective cohort study enrolled 65 CKD patients who were treated with Roxadustat and 31 CKD patients who received conventional therapy between January 2021 and June 2022. All patients were examined for ECG in the absence of clinical symptoms and compared the ECG indicators. Demographic and clinical data of all patients were collected. All data used SPSS 18.0 for statistical analyses. RESULTS The T peak-to-end (Tpe) of PD patients in the Roxadustat group was remarkably slower than that of patients in the conventional group. Additionally, the Tpe/QT ratio in the conventional group was significantly elevated than that in the Roxadustat group. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that Tpe (95%CI 1.191 ~ 2.141, P = 0.002) and Roxadustat treatment (95%CI 1.357 ~ 42.121, P = 0.021) were the risk factors of PD patients with high Tp-e/QT ratio. CONCLUSION In summary, we found that Roxadustat could improve ventricular repolarization in peritoneal dialysis patients, which indicated a potential cardiovascular protective effect of Roxadustat. This study might provide a new integrated approach to the assessment and treatment of CKD.

ST-segment elevation predicts the occurrence of malignant ventricular arrhythmia events in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:61. [PMID: 36732698 PMCID: PMC9896671 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03099-w] [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: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND ST-segment elevation (STE) represents a repolarization dispersion marker underlying arrhythmogenesis in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI); however, its value for predicting malignant ventricular arrhythmia events (MVAEs) remains uncertain. METHODS In total, 285 patients with STEMI and those with or without MVAEs who presented within 6 h of symptom onset were enrolled. The relationships between STE and clinical characteristics of MVAEs (defined as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation) were analyzed using t-test, chi-square test, binary multivariate logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS Patients with STEMI and MVAEs had a shorter time from symptom onset to balloon time (p = 0.0285) and greater STE (p < 0.01) than those without MVAEs. The symptom-to-balloon time, age, and STE were associated with MVAEs after stepwise regression analysis in all cases. Only STE was significantly associated with the occurrence of MVAEs (all, p < 0.01). The area under the curve (AUC) of STE for predicting MVAEs was 0.905, and the cut-off value was 4.5 mV. When only infarct-related arteries were included in the analysis, the AUC of the left anterior descending artery was 0.925 with a cut-off value of 4.5 mV, that of the right coronary artery was 0.915 with a cut-off value of 4.5 mV, and that of the left circumflex artery was 0.929 with a cut-off value of 4.0 mV. CONCLUSIONS In patients with STEMI presenting within 6 h of symptom onset, age, symptom-to-balloon time, and STE were the main predictors for MVAEs. However, among these, STE was the strongest predictor for MVAEs and was an index for repolarization dispersion of cardiomyocytes in infarcted and non-infarcted areas.

J Clin Med 2023; 12:992. [PMID: 36769640 PMCID: PMC9917475 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12030992] [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: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
A noninvasive tool for cardiovascular risk stratification has not yet been established in the clinical routine analysis. Previous studies suggest a prolonged Tpeak-Tend interval (the interval from the peak to the end of the T-wave) to be predictive of death. This meta-analysis was designed to systematically evaluate the association of the Tpeak-Tend interval with mortality outcomes. Medline (via PubMed), Embase and the Cochrane Library were searched from 1 January 2008 to 21 July 2020 for articles reporting the ascertainment of the Tpeak-Tend interval and observation of all-cause-mortality. The search yielded 1920 citations, of which 133 full-texts were retrieved and 29 observational studies involving 23,114 patients met the final criteria. All-cause deaths had longer Tpeak-Tend intervals compared to survivors by a standardized mean difference of 0.41 (95% CI 0.23-0.58) and patients with a long Tpeak-Tend interval had a higher risk of all-cause death compared to patients with a short Tpeak-Tend interval by an overall odds ratio of 2.33 (95% CI 1.57-3.45). Heart rate correction, electrocardiographic (ECG) measurement methods and the selection of ECG leads were major sources of heterogeneity. Subgroup analyses revealed that heart rate correction did not affect the association of the Tpeak-Tend interval with mortality outcomes, whereas this finding was not evident in all measurement methods. The Tpeak-Tend interval was found to be significantly associated with all-cause mortality. Further studies are warranted to confirm the prognostic value of the Tpeak-Tend interval.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ventricular arrhythmias following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) range from benign to life-threatening fatal arrhythmias. Tpeak-end (Tp-e) interval has been shown to be an important parameter in the assessment of repolarization dispersion. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between SYNTAX and Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) risk score calculated on admission and Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QTc ratio. METHODS A total of 421 patients were included in the study. The patients were divided into 2 groups as low SYNTAX score (≤22) and moderate and high risk SYNTAX score (>22). According to the GRACE risk score, the patients were divided into 2 groups; high-risk patients ≥140 and <140 low-risk patients. RESULTS In the group with SYNTAX score >22, the Tp-e interval (p<0.001) and Tp-e/QTc ratio (p<0.001) was found to be significantly higher than in the group with a SYNTAX score ≤22. Tp-e interval (p<0.001) and Tp-e/QTc ratio (p=0.002) was higher in patients with GRACE risk score ≥140 compared with patients with a GRACE risk score <140. The correlation between Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QTc ratio and SYNTAX score (r=0.489; p<0.001) and GRACE risk score (r=0.274; p<0.001) were found to be significant. A significant and independent correlation was found between the SYNTAX score and Tp-e/QTc ratio (β=0.385; p<0.001). CONCLUSION Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio increased in patients with severe coronary artery disease assessed with SYNTAX score. Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio increased in patients with a high GRACE risk score.

Prognostic value of infarct-related-lead Tpeak-Tend/QT ratio in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Heart Vessels 2021; 37:539-548.

Abstract
Tpeak-Tend/QT ratio (Tp-e/QT) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is reportedly associated with major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). However, Tp-e/QT measurement methods are controversial, and few studies have clarified the effect of different Tp-e/QT measures on prognosis. Our study is the first to investigate the advantages of the Tp-e/QT measured by infarct-related-lead method in predicting MACEs during hospitalization and long-term mortality in patients with STEMI. A total of 427 STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were included in this study. The Tp-e/QT before PCI was measured by traditional 12-lead method and infarct-related-lead method. Outcomes were tested using comparative statistics, logistic regression, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. There were 62 (14.5%) patients who had MACEs in-hospital. Logistic regression showed that the Tp-e/QT in infarct-related-lead was an independent predictor (p < 0.001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the Tp-e/QT in infarct-related-lead was larger than that in the Tp-e/QT in traditional 12-lead (0.889 vs 0.741), and the optimal cutoff value was 0.32. The three-year survival rate of patients in the infarct-related-lead Tp-e/QT < 0.32 group was better than Tp-e/QT ≥ 0.32 group in Kaplan-Meier survival analysis (93.9 vs 87.0%). When stratified according to infarct-related arteries, the results showed that the common odds ratio of patients in Tp-e/QT ≥ 0.32 group occurred MACEs was 1.562, P = 0.038. The infarct-related-lead Tp-e/QT performed better than the traditional 12-lead Tp-e/QT in predicting poor prognosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The patients with ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) are significantly at increased risk of arrhythmia. Repolarization of myocardium has been evaluated by a series of electrical parameters including T wave peak to T wave end (Tp-Te) and Tp-Te/QT ratio. Which were compared with survival outcomes between two groups of STEMI patients treated with Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PPCI) and recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator (r-TPA). METHODS In this prospective study, 188 patients with STEMI were included in the study. 12‑Lead ECGs were obtained from all patients on time of admission and after 24 h after treatment. After dividing the patients into two groups based on their type of treatment (PPCI or r-TPA), The Tp-Te/QT and Tp-Te/QTc ratios were calculated using ECG records. The survival outcomes were compared between two groups. RESULTS 95 patients (50.5%) underwent PPCI and 93 patients (49.5%) received r-TPA. Tp-Te/QT and Tp-Te/QTc ratios after administration of the treatments were significantly decreased in both groups (P-value = .001) with lower Tp-Te/QT and Tp-Te/QTc ratios in PPCI group (P-value = .001). 7 patients in PPCI group (7.3%) and 16 patients in r-TPA group (17.2%) were died during their hospitalization period (P-value = .04). The best combination of sensitivity and specificity of post treatment Tp-Te/QT ratio was at cutoff points of 29.4 with 82% sensitivity and 83% specificity. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that Tp-Te/QT and Tp-Te/QTc ratios decrease significantly after both PPCI and r-TPA therapies, but with PPCI these indexes decrease more than r-TPA, resulting a better survival outcome in patients with STEMI.
