Abstract
Objectives The objectives of this study were to assess the changes in the left myocardial function after chemotherapy for childhood lymphoma and observe the predictive or monitor value for cancer treatment-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) by speckle-tracking echocardiography. Methods A total of 23 children with histopathological diagnoses of lymphoma were included, with age-matched normal controls. Comparative analysis of clinical serological tests and left heart strain parameters in children with lymphoma, including left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVGLS); global myocardial work (GMW) indices, which include global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global wasted work, and global work efficiency; and the LS of subendocardial, middle, and subepicardial layer myocardium during left ventricular systole were measured: left atrial strain of reservoir phase (LASr), left atrial strain of conduit phase (LAScd), and left atrial strain of contraction phase (LASct). Results One-way ANOVA showed that GLS, GWI, GCW, LASr, and LAScd were closely associated with CTRCD and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that GLS was the most sensitive predictor for detecting patients at lofty risk of anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity. Both before and after chemotherapy, GLS in the left ventricle showed a pattern of basal segment < middle segment < apical segment and subepicardial < middle < subendocardial layer (p < 0.05), and the degree of decrease also showed a regular pattern of epicardial layer < middle layer < subendocardial layer while the difference was not significant (p > 0.05). After chemotherapy, maximum flow rate in early mitral relaxation/left atrial systolic maximum flow rate (E/A) and left atrial volume index of each group were in the normal range, and the values of LASr, LAScd, and LASct slightly increased in the second cycle and decreased significantly in the fourth cycle after chemotherapy, reaching the lowest level; LASr and LAScd were positively correlated with GLS. Conclusion LVGLS is a more sensitive and earlier indicator to predict CTRCD compared with conventional echocardiography-related parameters and serological markers, and GLS of each myocardial layer showed a certain regularity. Left atrial strain can be used for early monitoring of cardiotoxicity in children with lymphoma after chemotherapy.

The Utility of Intraventricular Pressure Gradient for Early Detection of Chemotherapy-Induced Subclinical Cardiac Dysfunction in Dogs. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:1122. [PMID: 33919889 PMCID: PMC8070943 DOI: 10.3390/ani11041122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Revised: 03/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Early detection of doxorubicin (DXR)-induced cardiomyopathy (DXR-ICM) is crucial to improve cancer patient outcomes and survival. In recent years, the intraventricular pressure gradient (IVPG) has been a breakthrough as a sensitive index to assess cardiac function. This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of IVPG for the early detection of chemotherapy-related cardiac dysfunction. For this purpose, six dogs underwent conventional, speckle tracking, and color M-mode echocardiography concomitantly with pressure-and-volume analysis by conductance catheter. The cardiac function measurements were assessed before DXR administration (baseline, Pre), at the end of treatment protocol (Post), and at 1.5 years follow-up (Post2). The result showed a significant reduction in the left ventricular end-systolic pressure-volume (Emax: 4.4 ± 0.7, 6.1 ± 1.6 vs. 8.4 ± 0.8 mmHg/mL), total-IVPG (0.59 ± 0.12, 0.62 ± 0.15 vs. 0.86 ± 0.12 mmHg), and mid-IVPG (0.28 ± 0.12, 0.31 ± 0.11 vs. 0.48 ± 0.08 mmHg), respectively in Post2 and Post compared with the baseline (p < 0.05). Mid-to-apical IVPG was also reduced in Post2 compared with the baseline (0.29 ± 0.13 vs. 0.51 ± 0.11). Meanwhile, the fraction shortening, ejection fraction, and longitudinal strain revealed no change between groups. Total and mid-IVPG were significantly correlated with Emax (R = 0.49; p < 0.05, both) but only mid-IVPG was a predictor for Emax (R2 = 0.238, p = 0.040). In conclusion, this study revealed that impairment of contractility was the initial changes observed with DXR-ICM in dogs and only IVPG could noninvasively detect subclinical alterations in cardiac function. Color M-mode echocardiography-derived IVPG could be a potential marker for the early detection of doxorubicin cardiomyopathy.
