Inflammatory markers and noncoding-RNAs responses to low and high compressions of HIIT with or without berberine supplementation in middle-aged men with prediabetes. Physiol Rep 2024; 12:e16146.

Abstract
This study compared the capacity of two different models of HIIT [high-(HC) and low-(LC) compression], with or without the use of berberine (BBR), on NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein-3 (NLRP3), H19, interleukin (IL)-1β, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and insulin resistance markers. Fifty-four middle-aged men with overweight or obesity and prediabetes [fasting blood glucose (FBG) 110-180 mg/dL] were randomly and equally assigned to the HC, LC, HC + BBR, LC + BBR, BBR, and non-exercising control (CON) groups. The HC (2:1 work-to-rest) and LC (1:1 work-to-rest) home-based training programs included 2-4 sets of 8 exercises at 80%-95% HRmax, twice a week for 8 weeks. Participants in the berberine groups received approximately 1000 mg daily. All exercise interventions led to a significant reduction in hs-CRP, IL-1β, insulin, FBG, and insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) versus CON. Notably, there was a significant reduction in FBG and HOMA-IR with the BBR group compared to the baseline. Both NLRP3 and H19 experienced a significant drop only with LC in comparison to the baseline. While both exercise protocols were beneficial overall, LC uniquely exhibited more anti-inflammatory effects, as indicated by reductions in H19 and NLRP3. However, the addition of berberine to the exercise programs did not demonstrate additional benefits.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Induction of general anaesthesia has many potential triggers for peri-operative myocardial ischaemia including the acute disturbance of blood gases that frequently follows alterations in breathing and ventilation patterns. Free-breathing oxygenation-sensitive cardiovascular magnetic resonance (OS-CMR) imaging may provide the opportunity to continuously quantify the impact of such triggers on myocardial oxygenation. OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of breathing patterns that simulate induction of general anaesthesia on myocardial oxygenation in awake healthy adults using continuous OS-CMR imaging. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Single-centre university hospital. Recruitment from August 2020 to January 2022. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-two healthy volunteers younger than 45 years old were recruited. Data were analysed from n = 29 (69% male individuals). INTERVENTION Participants performed a simulated induction breathing manoeuvre consisting of 2.5 min paced breathing with a respiration rate of 14 breaths per minute, followed by 5 deep breaths, then apnoea for up to 60s inside a magnetic resonance imaging scanner (MRI). Cardiac images were acquired with the traditional OS-CMR sequence (OS bh-cine ), which requires apnoea for acquisition and with two free-breathing OS-CMR sequences: a high-resolution single-shot sequence (OS fb-ss ) and a real-time cine sequence (OS fb-rtcine ). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Myocardial oxygenation response at the end of the paced breathing period and at the 30 s timepoint during the subsequent apnoea, reflecting the time of successful intubation in a clinical setting. RESULTS The paced breathing followed by five deep breaths significantly reduced myocardial oxygenation, which was observed with all three techniques (OS bh-cine -6.0 ± 2.6%, OS fb-ss -12.0 ± 5.9%, OS fb-rtcine -5.4 ± 7.0%, all P < 0.05). The subsequent vasodilating stimulus of apnoea then significantly increased myocardial oxygenation (OS bh-cine 6.8 ± 3.1%, OS fb-ss 8.4 ± 5.6%, OS fb-rtcine 15.7 ± 10.0%, all P < 0.01). The free-breathing sequences were reproducible and were not inferior to the original sequence for any stage. CONCLUSION Breathing manoeuvres simulating induction of general anaesthesia cause dynamic alterations of myocardial oxygenation in young volunteers, which can be quantified continuously with free-breathing OS-CMR. Introducing these new imaging techniques into peri-operative studies may throw new light into the mechanisms of peri-operative perturbations of myocardial tissue oxygenation and ischaemia.

Abstract
A key step in translational cardiovascular research is the use of large animal models to better understand normal and abnormal physiology, to test drugs or interventions, or to perform studies which would be considered unethical in human subjects. Ultrahigh field magnetic resonance imaging (UHF-MRI) at 7 T field strength is becoming increasingly available for imaging of the heart and, when compared to clinically established field strengths, promises better image quality and image information content, more precise functional analysis, potentially new image contrasts, and as all in-vivo imaging techniques, a reduction of the number of animals per study because of the possibility to scan every animal repeatedly. We present here a solution to the dual use problem of whole-body UHF-MRI systems, which are typically installed in clinical environments, to both UHF-MRI in large animals and humans. Moreover, we provide evidence that in such a research infrastructure UHF-MRI, and ideally combined with a standard small-bore UHF-MRI system, can contribute to a variety of spatial scales in translational cardiovascular research: from cardiac organoids, Zebra fish and rodent hearts to large animal models such as pigs and humans. We present pilot data from serial CINE, late gadolinium enhancement, and susceptibility weighted UHF-MRI in a myocardial infarction model over eight weeks. In 14 pigs which were delivered from a breeding facility in a national SARS-CoV-2 hotspot, we found no infection in the incoming pigs. Human scanning using CINE and phase contrast flow measurements provided good image quality of the left and right ventricle. Agreement of functional analysis between CINE and phase contrast MRI was excellent. MRI in arrested hearts or excised vascular tissue for MRI-based histologic imaging, structural imaging of myofiber and vascular smooth muscle cell architecture using high-resolution diffusion tensor imaging, and UHF-MRI for monitoring free radicals as a surrogate for MRI of reactive oxygen species in studies of oxidative stress are demonstrated. We conclude that UHF-MRI has the potential to become an important precision imaging modality in translational cardiovascular research.

Abstract
Background Coronary microcirculation has a fundamental role in the regulation of coronary blood flow in response to cardiac requirements, which has aroused wide concerns in basic science and clinical cardiovascular research. We aimed to analyze coronary microcirculation-associated literatures over 30 years and provide insightful information on the evolutionary path, frontier research hotspots, and future developmental trends. Methods Publications were retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC). VOSviewer was used to perform co-occurrence analyses for countries, institutions, authors, and keywords and to generate visualized collaboration maps. CiteSpace was used to visualize the knowledge map derived from reference co-citation analysis, burst references, and keywords detection. Results This analysis was performed based on 11,702 publications including 9981 articles and 1721 reviews. The United States and Harvard University ranked at the top among all the countries and institutions. The majority of articles were published in Circulation, and it also was the most co-cited journal. Thematic hotspots and frontiers were focused on coronary microvascular dysfunction, magnetic resonance imaging, fractional flow reserve, STEMI, and heart failure. Additionally, keywords burst and co-occurrence cluster analysis showed that management, microvascular dysfunction, microvascular obstruction, prognostic value, outcomes, and guidelines were current knowledge gaps and future directions. Conclusions Coronary microcirculation presented a research hotspot relevant wide spectrum of cardiovascular diseases. Definite diagnostics and prognostics are particularly valued. The protection of cardiovascular events that influence clinical outcomes should be an insightful concern in the future. Multidisciplinary collaborations will provide significant advances for the development of coronary microcirculation.

Abstract
Introduction In patients with chronic coronary syndromes, hyperventilation followed by apnea has been shown to unmask myocardium susceptible to inducible deoxygenation. The aim of this study was to assess whether such a provoked response is co-localized with myocardial dysfunction. Methods A group of twenty-six CAD patients with a defined stenosis (quantitative coronary angiography > 50%) underwent a cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) exam prior to revascularization. Healthy volunteers older than 50 years served as controls (n = 12). Participants hyperventilated for 60s followed by brief apnea. Oxygenation-sensitive images were analyzed for changes in myocardial oxygenation and strain. Results In healthy subjects, hyperventilation resulted in global myocardial deoxygenation (-10.2 ± 8.2%, p < 0.001) and augmented peak circumferential systolic strain (-3.3 ± 1.6%, p < 0.001). At the end of apnea, myocardial signal intensity had increased (+9.1 ± 5.3%, p < 0.001) and strain had normalized to baseline. CAD patients had a similar global oxygenation response to hyperventilation (−5.8 ± 9.6%, p = 0.085) but showed no change in peak strain from their resting state (-1.3 ± 1.6%), which was significantly attenuated in comparison the strain response observed in controls (p = 0.008). With apnea, the CAD patients showed an attenuated global oxygenation response to apnea compared to controls (+2.7 ± 6.2%, p < 0.001). This was accompanied by a significant depression of peak strain (3.0 ± 1.7%, p < 0.001), which also differed from the control response (p = 0.025). Regional analysis demonstrated that post-stenotic myocardium was most susceptible to de-oxygenation and systolic strain abnormalities during respiratory maneuvers. CMR measures at rest were unable to discriminate post-stenotic territory (p > 0.05), yet this was significant for both myocardial oxygenation [area under the curve (AUC): 0.88, p > 0.001] and peak strain (AUC: 0.73, p = 0.023) measured with apnea. A combined analysis of myocardial oxygenation and peak strain resulted in an incrementally higher AUC of 0.91, p < 0.001 than strain alone. Conclusion In myocardium of patients with chronic coronary syndromes and primarily intermediate coronary stenoses, cine oxygenation-sensitive CMR can identify an impaired vascular and functional response to a vasoactive breathing maneuver stimulus indicative of inducible ischemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathophysiology of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is not well understood, but evidence strongly suggests involvement of microvascular dysfunction. We studied the myocardial oxygenation reserve as a direct marker of coronary vascular function and its relation to myocardial deformation and tissue characteristics by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). METHODS In a dual-center case-control study, patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (>50%) and healthy controls older than 50 years underwent quantitative CMR for ventricular volumes and functional assessment with feature tracking, as well as tissue characterization (T1, T2, extracellular volume). Coronary vascular function was measured by oxygenation-sensitive (OS)-CMR of the myocardial oxygenation response to a vasoactive breathing maneuver. RESULTS Twenty-nine patients completed the CMR exam. Compared with cutoffs derived from 12 control subjects, circumferential peak strain was attenuated in 97% of patients. Native T1 was elevated in 93%, extracellular volume was elevated in 83%. Sixty-six percent of patients revealed either regional or global myocardial edema, defined by an increased myocardial T2. An attenuated global myocardial oxygenation reserve (<4.4%) was observed in 96% of the patients (1.7±3.9% versus 9.1±5.3% in controls, P<0.001). This was correlated with septal wall thickness (r=-0.54, P=0.003), edema (myocardial T2; β=-0.26% oxygenation-sensitive/ms [95% CI, -0.49 to -0.03], P=0.029), and reduced diastolic strain rate (β=1.50% oxygenation-sensitive/s-1 [95% CI, 0.06-2.90], P=0.042). CONCLUSIONS In patients with clinical heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, vascular dysfunction as measured by an attenuated myocardial oxygenation reserve is associated with myocardial edema, a thicker septum, and diastolic dysfunction. A quantitative comprehensive CMR exam including oxygenation-sensitive-CMR allows for comprehensive imaging-based phenotyping of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

Abstract
Background: Coronary autoregulation is a feedback system, which maintains near-constant myocardial blood flow over a range of mean arterial pressure (MAP). Yet in emergency or peri-operative situations, hypotensive or hypertensive episodes may quickly arise. It is not yet established how rapid blood pressure changes outside of the autoregulation zone (ARZ) impact left (LV) and right ventricular (RV) function. Using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging, measurements of myocardial tissue oxygenation and ventricular systolic and diastolic function can comprehensively assess the heart throughout a range of changing blood pressures. Design and methods: In 10 anesthetized swine, MAP was varied in steps of 10–15 mmHg from 29 to 196 mmHg using phenylephrine and urapidil inside a 3-Tesla MRI scanner. At each MAP level, oxygenation-sensitive (OS) cine images along with arterial and coronary sinus blood gas samples were obtained and blood flow was measured from a surgically implanted flow probe on the left anterior descending coronary artery. Using CMR feature tracking-software, LV and RV circumferential systolic and diastolic strain parameters were measured from the myocardial oxygenation cines. Results: LV and RV peak strain are compromised both below the lower limit (LV: Δ1.2 ± 0.4%, RV: Δ4.4 ± 1.2%, p < 0.001) and above the upper limit (LV: Δ2.1 ± 0.4, RV: Δ5.4 ± 1.4, p < 0.001) of the ARZ in comparison to a baseline of 70 mmHg. LV strain demonstrates a non-linear relationship with invasive and non-invasive measures of oxygenation. Specifically for the LV at hypotensive levels below the ARZ, systolic dysfunction is related to myocardial deoxygenation (β = −0.216, p = 0.036) in OS-CMR and both systolic and diastolic dysfunction are linked to reduced coronary blood flow (peak strain: β = −0.028, p = 0.047, early diastolic strain rate: β = 0.026, p = 0.002). These relationships were not observed at hypertensive levels. Conclusion: In an animal model, biventricular function is compromised outside the coronary autoregulatory zone. Dysfunction at pressures below the lower limit is likely caused by insufficient blood flow and tissue deoxygenation. Conversely, hypertension-induced systolic and diastolic dysfunction points to high afterload as a cause. These findings from an experimental model are translatable to the clinical peri-operative environment in which myocardial deformation may have the potential to guide blood pressure management, in particular at varying individual autoregulation thresholds.

[PMID: 34517140 DOI: 10.1016/j.cct.2021.106567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2021] [Revised: 09/05/2021] [Accepted: 09/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Supplemental oxygen (O2) is used routinely during anesthesia. In the treatment of acute myocardial infarction, it has been established that hyperoxia is to be avoided, whereas information on benefit and risk of hyperoxia in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) remain scarce, especially in the setting of general anesthesia. This study will compare the immediate effects of normoxemia and hyperoxia on cardiac function, with a primary focus on changes in peak longitudinal left-ventricular strain, in anesthetized stable chronic CAD patients using peri-operative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). METHODS A single-center randomized cross-over clinical trial will be conducted, enrolling 106 patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery. After the induction of anesthesia and prior to the start of surgery, cardiac function will be assessed by 2D and 3D TEE. Images will be acquired at two different oxygen states for each patient in randomized order. The fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) will be titrated to a normoxemic state (oxygen saturation of 95-98%) and adjusted to a hyperoxic state (FIO2 = 0.8). TEE images will be analyzed in a blinded manner for standard cardiac function and strain parameters. CONCLUSION By using myocardial strain assessed by TEE, early and subtle signs of biventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction can be promptly measured intraoperatively prior to the onset of severe signs of ischemia. The results may help anesthesiologists to better understand the effects of FIO2 on cardiac function and potentially tailor oxygen therapy to patients with CAD undergoing general anesthesia.

Abstract
The presence of deoxygenated hemoglobin (Hb) results in a drop in T2 and T2* in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), known as the blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD-)effect. The purpose of this study was to investigate if deoxygenated myoglobin (Mb) exerts a BOLD-like effect. Equine Met-Mb powder was dissolved and converted to oxygenated Mb. T1, T2, T2*-maps and BOLD-bSSFP images at 3Tesla were used to scan 22 Mb samples and 12 Hb samples at room air, deoxygenation, reoxygenation and after chemical reduction. In Mb, T2 and T2* mapping showed a significant decrease after deoxygenation (- 25% and - 12%, p < 0.01), increase after subsequent reoxygenation (+ 17% and 0% vs. room air, p < 0.01), and finally a decrease in T2 after chemical reduction (- 28%, p < 0.01). An opposite trend was observed with T1 for each stage, while chemical reduction reduced BOLD-bSSFP signal (- 3%, p < 0.01). Similar deflections were seen at oxygenation changes in Hb. The T1 changes suggests that the oxygen content has been changed in the specimen. The shortening of transverse relaxation times in T2 and T2*-mapping after deoxygenation in Mb specimens are highly indicative of a BOLD-like effect.

Hyperventilation/Breath-Hold Maneuver to Detect Myocardial Ischemia by Strain-Encoded CMR: Diagnostic Accuracy of a Needle-Free Stress Protocol. JACC Cardiovasc Imaging 2021; 14:1932-1944. [PMID: 33865775 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcmg.2021.02.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2020] [Revised: 02/04/2021] [Accepted: 02/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of a fast, needle-free test for myocardial ischemia using fast Strain-ENCoded (fSENC) cardiovascular MR (CMR) after a hyperventilation/breath-hold maneuver (HVBH). BACKGROUND Myocardial stress testing is one of the most frequent diagnostic tests performed. Recent data indicate that CMR first-pass perfusion outperforms other modalities. Its use, however, is limited by the need for both, a vasodilatory stress and the intravenous application of gadolinium. Both are associated with added cost, safety concerns, and patient inconvenience. The combination of 2 novel CMR approaches, fSENC, an ultrafast technique to visualize myocardial strain, and HVBH, a physiological vasodilator, may overcome these limitations. METHODS Patients referred for CMR stress testing underwent an extended protocol to evaluate 3 different tests: 1) adenosine-perfusion; 2) adenosine-strain; and 3) HVBH-strain. Diagnostic accuracy was assessed using quantitative coronary angiography as reference. RESULTS A total of 122 patients (age 66 ± 11years; 80% men) suspected of obstructive coronary artery disease were enrolled. All participants completed the protocol without significant adverse events. Adenosine-strain and HVBH-strain provided significantly better diagnostic accuracy than adenosine-perfusion, both on a patient level (adenosine-strain: sensitivity 82%, specificity 83%; HVBH-strain: sensitivity 81%, specificity 86% vs. adenosine-perfusion: sensitivity 67%, specificity 92%; p < 0.05) and territory level (adenosine-strain: sensitivity 67%, specificity 93%; HVBH-strain: sensitivity 63%, specificity 95% vs. adenosine-perfusion: sensitivity 49%, specificity 96%; p < 0.05). However, these differences in diagnostic accuracy disappear by excluding patients with history of coronary artery bypass graft or previous myocardial infarction. The response of longitudinal strain differs significantly between ischemic and nonischemic segments to adenosine (ΔLSischemic = 0.6 ± 5.4%, ΔLSnonischemic = -0.9 ± 2.7%; p < 0.05) and HVBH (ΔLSischemic = 1.3% ± 3.8%, ΔLSnonischemic = -0.3 ± 1.8%; p = 0.002). Test duration of HVBH-strain (t = 64 ± 2 s) was significantly shorter compared with adenosine-strain (t = 184 ± 59 s; p < 0.0001) and adenosine-perfusion (t = adenosine-perfusion: 172 ± 59 s; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS HVBH-strain has a high diagnostic accuracy in detecting significant coronary artery stenosis. It is not only significantly faster than any other method but also neither requires contrast agents nor pharmacological stressors.

Abstract
Accurate, real-time monitoring of intravascular oxygen levels is important in tracking the cardiopulmonary health of patients after cardiothoracic surgery. Existing technologies use intravascular placement of glass fiber-optic catheters that pose risks of blood vessel damage, thrombosis, and infection. In addition, physical tethers to power supply systems and data acquisition hardware limit freedom of movement and add clutter to the intensive care unit. This report introduces a wireless, miniaturized, implantable optoelectronic catheter system incorporating optical components on the probe, encapsulated by soft biocompatible materials, as alternative technology that avoids these disadvantages. The absence of physical tethers and the flexible, biocompatible construction of the probe represent key defining features, resulting in a high-performance, patient-friendly implantable oximeter that can monitor localized tissue oxygenation, heart rate, and respiratory activity with wireless, real-time, continuous operation. In vitro and in vivo testing shows that this platform offers measurement accuracy and precision equivalent to those of existing clinical standards.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Exsanguination leading to cardiac arrest is the terminal phase of uncontrolled hemorrhage. Resuscitative interventions have focused on preload and afterload support. Outcomes remain poor due to several factors but poor coronary perfusion undoubtedly plays a role. The aim of this study is to characterize the relationship between arterial pressure and flow during hemorrhage in an effort to better describe the terminal phases of exsanguination.Male swine weighing 60 kg to 80 kg underwent splenectomy and instrumentation followed by a logarithmic exsanguination until asystole. Changes in hemodynamic parameters over time were compared using one-way, repeated measures analysis of variance.Nine animals weighing 69 ± 15 kg were studied. Asystole occurred at 53 ± 13 min when 52 ± 11% of total blood volume has been shed. The greatest fall in mean hemodynamic indices were noted in the first 15 min: SBP (80-42 mm Hg, P = 0.02), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (94-52 mL, P = 0.04), cardiac output (4.8-2.4 L/min, P = 0.03), coronary perfusion pressure (57-30 mm Hg, P = 0.01), and stroke volume (60-25 mL, P = 0.02). This corresponds to the greatest rate of exsanguination. Organized cardiac activity was observed until asystole without arrythmias. Coronary flow was relatively preserved throughout the study, with a precipitous decline once mean arterial pressure was less than 20 mm Hg, leading to asystole.In this model, initial hemodynamic instability was due to preload failure, with asystole occurring relatively late, secondary to failure of coronary perfusion. Future resuscitative therapies need to directly address coronary perfusion failure if effective attempts are to be made to salvage these patients.
