Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early signs of subclinical cardiac damage must be identified before they turn into clinical manifestations. Tailoring a formula is relevant for precise QTc evaluation in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) survivors considering they are at risk of long-term cardiac problems. Therefore, we aim to develop group heart rate correction formulas for QT intervals in childhood ALL survivors at rest and during exercise, and to assess the applicability of these methods across a variety of risk groups exposed to diverse chemotherapy dosages. METHODS Two hundred and fifty childhood ALL survivors in the PETALE study were classified into 3 groups depending on their prognostic risk group. ECG measurements (QT and RR intervals) were made at rest and during a cardiopulmonary exercise test. QT correction for heart rate was applied using 5 different formulas, which included 2 previously published formulas and 3 group-specific formulas for each sex. RESULTS The QT/RR relation showed 2 different curves between rest and during exercise, which was worse for females. Group-specific QTc formulas allowed adequate heart rate-corrected QT interval, independently of the cumulative dose of doxorubicin received during treatment. Group-specific formulas showed significantly shorter QTc intervals than QTc from Bazett's formula. QTc (Bazett's formula) values surpassed the established clinical norm in 22 males (11%) and 22 females (11%), with a majority occurring during exercise, affecting 15 males (7.5%) and 10 females (5%). CONCLUSION This study shows the applicability of personalized group correction of QT/RR data in childhood ALL survivors. Our comprehensive assessments (spanning rest, exercise, and recovery) is an effective approach for risk stratification of cardiac complications in childhood ALL survivors.

[PMID: 38392605 PMCID: PMC10890600 DOI: 10.3390/jpm14020172] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
There are currently no established methods to predict quantitatively whether the start of a drug with the potential to prolong the QTc interval poses patients at risk for relevant QTc prolongation. Therefore, this retrospective study aimed to pave the way for the development of models for estimating QTc prolongation in patients newly exposed to medications with QTc-prolonging potential. Data of patients with a documented QTc prolongation after initiation of a QTc-prolonging drug were extracted from hospital charts. Using a standard model-building approach, general linear mixed models were identified as the best models for predicting both the extent of QTc prolongation and its absolute value after the start of a QTc-time-prolonging drug. The cohort consisted of 107 adults with a mean age of 64.2 years. Patients were taking an average of 2.4 drugs associated with QTc prolongation, with amiodarone, propofol, pipamperone, ondansetron, and mirtazapine being the most frequently involved. There was a significant but weak correlation between measured and predicted absolute QTc values under medication (r2 = 0.262, p < 0.05), as well as for QTc prolongation (r2 = 0.238, p < 0.05). As the developed models are based on a relatively small number of subjects, further research is necessary to ensure their applicability and reliability in real-world scenarios. Overall, this research contributes to the understanding of QTc prolongation and its association with medications, providing insight into the development of predictive models. With improvements, these models could potentially aid healthcare professionals in assessing the risk of QTc prolongation before adding a new drug and in making informed decisions in clinical settings.

Prolongation of the QTc interval is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases: The Hoorn study. J Electrocardiol 2023; 80:133-138. [PMID: 37352635 DOI: 10.1016/j.jelectrocard.2023.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 06/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Prolonged heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) on the electrocardiogram (ECG) is maybe associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), but the evidence is inconsistent. Therefore, we investigated whether baseline prolongation of the QTc interval is associated with CVD morbidity and mortality and its subtypes and whether glucose tolerance modifies this association in a population-based cohort study with a mean follow-up of 10.8 years. METHODS We analyzed a glucose tolerance stratified sample (N = 487) from the longitudinal population-based Hoorn Study cohort (age 64 ± 7 years, 48% female). Cox regression was used to investigate the association between sex-specific baseline QTc quartiles and CVD morbidity and mortality. The risk was also estimated per 10 ms increase in QTc. All analyses were adjusted for age, sex, smoking status, systolic blood pressure, prevalent CVD, glucose tolerance status, hypertension and total cholesterol. In addition, stratified analyses were conducted for glucose tolerance status. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 10.8 years, 351 CVD events were observed. The adjusted hazard ratios (95% CI) for each 10 ms increase in QTc interval were 1.06 (95% CI: 1.02-1.10) for CVD, 1.06 (95% CI: 0.97-1.15) for acute myocardial infarction, 1.07 (95% CI: 1.01-1.13) for stroke, 1.12 (95% CI: 1.06-1.19) for heart failure, 1.04 (95% CI: 0.96-1.12) for peripheral arterial disease and 1.01 (95% CI:0.95-1.08) for coronary heart disease. Glucose tolerance status did not modify the association (P > 0.2). CONCLUSION/INTERPRETATION Prolongation of the QTc interval is associated with morbidity and mortality due to general CVD. Glucose tolerance status did not modify these associations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this review was to evaluate the overall diagnostic performance of e-devices for detection of health problems in older adults at home. METHODS A systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA-DTA guidelines. RESULTS 31 studies were included with 24 studies included in meta-analysis. The included studies were divided into four categories according to the signals detected: physical activity (PA), vital signs (VS), electrocardiography (ECG) and other. The meta-analysis showed the pooled estimates of sensitivity and specificity were 0.94 and 0.98 respectively in the 'VS' group. The pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.97 and 0.98 respectively in the 'ECG' group. CONCLUSIONS All kinds of e-devices perform well in diagnosing the common health problems. While ECG-based health problems detection system is more reliable than VS-based ones. For sole signal detection system has limitation in diagnosing specific health problems, more researches should focus on developing new systems combined of multiple signals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting findings have described the association between prolonged heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) and cardiovascular disease. AIMS To identify articles investigating the association between QTc and cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality, and to summarize the available evidence for the general and type 2 diabetes populations. METHODS A systematic search was performed in PubMed and Embase in May 2022 to identify studies that investigated the association between QTc prolongation and cardiovascular disease in both the general and type 2 diabetes populations. Screening, full-text assessment, data extraction and risk of bias assessment were performed independently by two reviewers. Effect estimates were pooled across studies using random-effect models. RESULTS Of the 59 studies included, 36 qualified for meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of the general population studies showed a significant association for: overall cardiovascular disease (fatal and non-fatal) (hazard ratio [HR] 1.68, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.33-2.12; I2=69%); coronary heart disease (fatal and non-fatal) in women (HR 1.27, 95% CI 1.08-1.50; I2=38%; coronary heart disease (fatal and non-fatal) in men (HR 2.07, 95% CI 1.26-3.39; I2=78%); stroke (HR 1.59, 95% CI 1.29-1.96; I2=45%); sudden cardiac death (HR 1.60, 95% CI 1.14-2.25; I2=68%); and atrial fibrillation (HR 1.55, 95% CI 1.31-1.83; I2=0.0%). No significant association was found for cardiovascular disease in the type 2 diabetes population. CONCLUSION QTc prolongation was associated with risk of cardiovascular disease in the general population, but not in the type 2 diabetes population.

Abstract
Background Early Vascular Aging and Supernormal Vascular Aging are two extreme phenotypes of vascular aging, and people in the two categories demonstrate distinct clinical characteristics and cardiovascular prognosis. However, the clinical implication of vascular aging categories in the Asian or Chinese population has not been investigated. We aimed to investigate the association between vascular aging categories and cardiovascular events in a Chinese cohort. Methods We explored the association of vascular aging categories with incident cardiovascular disease in a community cohort in Shanghai, China, which included 10,375 participants following up for 4.5 years. Vascular age was predicted by a multivariable linear regression model including classical risk factors and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity. Early and Supernormal vascular aging groups were defined by 10% and 90% percentiles of Δ-age, which was calculated as chronological minus vascular age. Results We found that cardiovascular risk significantly increased in Early [hazard ratio (HR), 1.597 (95% CI, 1.043–2.445)] and decreased in Supernormal [HR, 0.729 (95% CI, 0.539–0.986)] vascular aging individuals, comparing with normal vascular aging subjects. The associations were independent of the Framingham risk score. Early vascular aging individuals also showed an elevated risk of total mortality [HR, 2.614 (95% CI, 1.302–5.249)]. Further, the associations of vascular aging categories with cardiovascular risk were much stronger in females than in males. Vascular aging categories with different cutoff levels expressed as percentiles (10th, 20th, and 25th) of Δ-age showed similar associations with cardiovascular risk. Conclusions In conclusion, the vascular aging categories could identify people with different levels of cardiovascular risk in the Chinese population, particularly in women.

Abstract
Background The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk predicted by traditional risk factors is used to guide preventive treatment. We aimed to investigate whether preferable levels of non-traditional emerging risk factors (i.e., negative risk markers) could downgrade the predicted ASCVD risk beyond traditional risk factors. Methods A total of 7,568 Chinese adults aged ≥ 40 years were followed up during 2010–2015. Negative risk markers including non-traditional lipids, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio, electrocardiogram (ECG), and measurements of atherosclerosis were evaluated using diagnostic likelihood ratio (DLR) and continuous net reclassification index (NRI) for their ability to downshift predicted CVD risk in the overall study population and in participants with intermediate (traditional risk factor predicted ASCVD risk 7.5% to 19.9%) or high risk (≥20%). Results During a median follow-up of 4.5 years, 416 participants developed CVD events including non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, and cardiovascular death. Among negative risk markers examined, lipoprotein(a) ≤ 10th percentile (5 mg/dL), normal ECG, and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) ≤ 25th percentile (0.5 mm) provided moderate CVD risk reclassification and downward changes in pre- to post-test risk on top of the traditional CVD risk factors, especially in high-risk participants. The DLRs were 0.41, 0.75, and 0.41, and the NRIs were 18, 22, and 14% for lipoprotein(a), ECG, and CIMT, respectively in high-risk participants. Conclusions Lipoprotein(a) ≤ 5 mg/dL, normal ECG, and CIMT ≤ 0.5 mm might be used as negative non-traditional risk markers to correctly downgrade predicted ASCVD risk in Chinese adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A prolonged heart rate-corrected QT interval (QTc) has been associated with peripheral artery disease (PAD) in the general population. However, no study to date has identified a link between prolonged QTc and the severity of PAD in patients with diabetes mellitus and foot ulcers (DFUs). This study aimed to investigate this relationship. METHODS This multicenter study enrolled 281 patients with DFUs. The severity of PAD was classified into no severe PAD group (without stenosis or occlusion) and severe PAD group (with stenosis or occlusion) based on duplex ultrasonography. The association of prolonged QTc with severe PAD was evaluated in a multivariable mixed-effect logistic regression model, with the hospital as a random effect. Directed acyclic graphs were used to drive the selection of variables to fit the regression model. RESULTS Patients with severe PAD had longer QTc than those without. Based on the multivariable mixed-effect logistic regression model, a prolonged QTc was positively associated with severe PAD (odds ratio (OR) = 2.61; 95% CI: 1.07-6.35) and severe DFUs (Wagner grade score ≥ 3) (OR = 2.87; 95% CI: 1.42-5.81). CONCLUSIONS A prolonged QTc was associated with severe PAD in patients with DFUs. Further research is required to ascertain whether the association is causal.
