Abstract
Damaging GATA6 variants cause cardiac outflow tract defects, sometimes with pancreatic and diaphragmic malformations. To define molecular mechanisms for these diverse developmental defects, we studied transcriptional and epigenetic responses to GATA6 loss of function (LoF) and missense variants during cardiomyocyte differentiation of isogenic human induced pluripotent stem cells. We show that GATA6 is a pioneer factor in cardiac development, regulating SMYD1 that activates HAND2, and KDR that with HAND2 orchestrates outflow tract formation. LoF variants perturbed cardiac genes and also endoderm lineage genes that direct PDX1 expression and pancreatic development. Remarkably, an exon 4 GATA6 missense variant, highly associated with extra-cardiac malformations, caused ectopic pioneer activities, profoundly diminishing GATA4, FOXA1/2, and PDX1 expression and increasing normal retinoic acid signaling that promotes diaphragm development. These aberrant epigenetic and transcriptional signatures illuminate the molecular mechanisms for cardiovascular malformations, pancreas and diaphragm dysgenesis that arise in patients with distinct GATA6 variants.

Abstract
Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: De novo genic and copy number variants are enriched in patients with congenital heart disease, particularly those with extra-cardiac anomalies. The impact of de novo damaging variants on outcomes following cardiac repair is unknown. Methods: We studied 2517 patients with congenital heart disease who had undergone whole-exome sequencing as part of the CHD GENES study (Congenital Heart Disease Genetic Network). Results: Two hundred ninety-four patients (11.7%) had clinically significant de novo variants. Patients with de novo damaging variants were 2.4 times more likely to have extra-cardiac anomalies (P=5.63×10−12). In 1268 patients (50.4%) who had surgical data available and underwent open-heart surgery exclusive of heart transplantation as their first operation, we analyzed transplant-free survival following the first operation. Median follow-up was 2.65 years. De novo variants were associated with worse transplant-free survival (hazard ratio, 3.51; P=5.33×10−04) and longer times to final extubation (hazard ratio, 0.74; P=0.005). As de novo variants had a significant interaction with extra-cardiac anomalies for transplant-free survival (P=0.003), de novo variants conveyed no additional risk for transplant-free survival for patients with these anomalies (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.96; P=0.06). By contrast, de novo variants in patients without extra-cardiac anomalies were associated with worse transplant-free survival during follow-up (hazard ratio, 11.21; P=1.61×10−05) than that of patients with no de novo variants. Using agnostic machine-learning algorithms, we identified de novo copy number variants at 15q25.2 and 15q11.2 as being associated with worse transplant-free survival and 15q25.2, 22q11.21, and 3p25.2 as being associated with prolonged time to final extubation. Conclusions: In patients with congenital heart disease undergoing open-heart surgery, de novo variants were associated with worse transplant-free survival and longer times on the ventilator. De novo variants were most strongly associated with adverse outcomes among patients without extra-cardiac anomalies, suggesting a benefit for preoperative genetic testing even when genetic abnormalities are not suspected during routine clinical practice.

Abstract
The discovery of damaging gene mutations in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients enables identification of regulators of cardiac development. Exome sequencing identified
de novo
heterozygous loss-of-function (LoF) and missense variants in
GATA6
among CHD probands, most with outflow tract malformations. Other subjects with
GATA6
LoF mutations developed pancreatic agenesis. To elucidate the molecular basis for the predominance of this heart defect, we modeled
GATA6
mutations in cardiomyocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC-CMs).
GATA6
variants were introduced into isogenic hiPSCs using CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. Genome-wide molecular profiles including chromatin accessibility (ATAC-Seq) and gene expression (single cell and bulk RNA-Seq) were evaluated during hiPSC-CM differentiation. Analyses of
GATA6
mutant hiPSC-CMs showed deficits in hiPSC-CM differentiation, chromatin accessibility and transcriptional profiles. Heterozygous
GATA6
LoF hiPSCs made hiPSC-CMs but exhibited reduced expression of second heart field genes. Homozygous
GATA6
LoF hiPSCs failed to differentiate and adopted fibroblast expression profiles. hiPSCs carrying a homozygous
GATA6
missense variant, R456G, which altered a DNA-binding domain residue, showed enhanced capacity to differentiate into neuroepithelial-like cells. Chromatin-accessibility studies confirmed that GATA6 normally binds to genes in the promoter region and other genes at distal enhancers. Human
GATA6
haploinsufficiency disrupts developmental transcriptional responses driving cardiac morphogenesis. The
HAND2
-dependent genetic program, operant during outflow tract development, is particularly sensitive to
GATA6
dosage. The mixed differentiation patterns observed in mutation-carrying hiPSCs likely contributes to vascular phenotypes observed in CHD patients.
GATA6
haploinsufficiency preferentially alters binding of distal enhancers to promoters in genes where GATA6 normally binds the enhancer rather than the promoter. We speculate that pathogenicity of GATA6 haploinsufficiency is mediated by weaker binding of GATA6 to distal enhancers than to promoter elements, altering expression of these genes in GATA6 haploinsufficient patients.

Abstract
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading cause for heart failure and is associated with a rate of mortality of 20% within 5 years of diagnosis. The most common genetic causes for DCM are mutations of the sarcomere protein titin (encoded by
TTN
), which occurs in 10-20% of DCM cases. Dominant DCM mutations truncate titin (TTNtv) and result in haploinsufficiency. Thus, strategies to increase the expression of the wild type
TTN
allele could attenuate damaging effects of TTNtv. Utilizing bioinformatic tools, we identified a putative enhancer for
TTN
in its intron 1. We deleted a 658 bp region from intron 1 which encompasses the region of interest in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) using CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to validate its function. Utilizing RNA sequencing and qPCR of RNA harvested from hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs), we demonstrated that a homozygous deletion in this region leads to a drop in
TTN
expression compared to the wild type (WT) control (0.344-fold change, p < 0.001). To further characterize this region, we subdivided it into three parts which we called E1 (296 bp), E2 (206 bp), and E3 (139 bp). E1 includes a highly conserved region and a region of open chromatin as identified by the Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin Sequencing (ATAC-Seq) performed on hiPSC-CMs. A homozygous E1 deletion resulted in a decreased
TTN
expression of 0.63-fold compared to the WT control (p < 0.001) when performing RNA sequencing on hiPSC-CMs. Both homozygous E2 and E3 deletions resulted in an increased
TTN
expression (1.56-fold change, p < 0.001; 1.19 fold change, p < 0.001). Utilizing a published sarcomere tracking platform, SarcTrack, to investigate hiPSC-CM physiology, we saw a decreased contractility of 6.6% in hiPSC-CMs carrying a homozygous E1 deletion compared to 10.1% in the WT control (p < 0.001). Cells carrying homozygous E2 or E3 deletions were hypercontractile (13.8%, p < 0.001; 13.7%, p < 0.001). Given our results, we hypothesize that
TTN
expression depends on the E1 region. If confirmed, we expect that increasing the activity of this enhancer using small molecules may provide a novel therapeutic target for DCM caused by TTNtv.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patient selection for critical care admission must balance patient safety with optimal resource allocation. This study aimed to determine the relationship between critical care admission, and postoperative mortality after abdominal surgery. METHODS This prespecified secondary analysis of a multicentre, prospective, observational study included consecutive patients enrolled in the DISCOVER study from UK and Republic of Ireland undergoing major gastrointestinal and liver surgery between October and December 2014. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore associations between critical care admission (planned and unplanned) and mortality, and inter-centre variation in critical care admission after emergency laparotomy. RESULTS Of 4529 patients included, 37.8% (n=1713) underwent planned critical care admissions from theatre. Some 3.1% (n=86/2816) admitted to ward-level care subsequently underwent unplanned critical care admission. Overall 30-day mortality was 2.9% (n=133/4519), and the risk-adjusted association between 30-day mortality and critical care admission was higher in unplanned [odds ratio (OR): 8.65, 95% confidence interval (CI): 3.51-19.97) than planned admissions (OR: 2.32, 95% CI: 1.43-3.85). Some 26.7% of patients (n=1210/4529) underwent emergency laparotomies. After adjustment, 49.3% (95% CI: 46.8-51.9%, P<0.001) were predicted to have planned critical care admissions, with 7% (n=10/145) of centres outside the 95% CI. CONCLUSIONS After risk adjustment, no 30-day survival benefit was identified for either planned or unplanned postoperative admissions to critical care within this cohort. This likely represents appropriate admission of the highest-risk patients. Planned admissions in selected, intermediate-risk patients may present a strategy to mitigate the risk of unplanned admission. Substantial inter-centre variation exists in planned critical care admissions after emergency laparotomies.

Abstract
The mechanisms by which truncating mutations in
MYBPC3
(encoding cardiac myosin binding protein-C; cMyBPC) or myosin missense mutations cause hyper-contractility and poor relaxation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are incompletely understood. Using genetic and biochemical approaches we explored how depletion of cMyBPC altered sarcomere function. We demonstrate that stepwise loss of cMyBPC resulted in reciprocal augmentation of myosin contractility. Direct attenuation of myosin function, via a damaging missense variant (F764L) that causes dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) normalized the increased contractility from cMyBPC depletion. Depletion of cMyBPC also altered dynamic myosin conformations during relaxation - enhancing the myosin state that enables ATP hydrolysis and thin filament interactions while reducing the super relaxed conformation associated with energy conservation. MYK-461, a pharmacologic inhibitor of myosin ATPase, rescued relaxation deficits and restored normal contractility in mouse and human cardiomyocytes with
MYBPC3
mutations. These data define dosage-dependent effects of cMyBPC on myosin that occur across all phases of the cardiac cycle as the pathophysiologic mechanisms by which
MYBPC3
truncations cause HCM. Therapeutic strategies to attenuate cMyBPC activity may rescue depressed cardiac contractility in DCM patients, while inhibiting myosin by MYK-461 should benefit the substantial proportion of HCM patients with
MYBPC3
mutations.

Abstract
Ethnicity may be considered a factor when considering what size endotracheal tube to insert. In particular it has been suggested that Chinese patients have a smaller tracheal diameter, justifying the selection of smaller endotracheal tubes. We systematically evaluated transverse tracheal diameters in Chinese and Caucasian patients, utilising archived computer tomography images. A convenience sample of 100 Caucasian patients from Australia was compared with 100 Chinese patients from Hong Kong. Patients over 18 years of age who had undergone a computerised tomography scan of the neck and thorax, and also had accurate body height and weight recorded, were studied. The mean transverse diameter of the trachea measured at three levels was similar between the Chinese and Caucasian patients. At the narrowest measurement point, the immediate subcricoid transverse diameter, the unadjusted mean difference between male Chinese and Caucasian patients was small (1 mm, standard deviation 0.83 mm, P=0.01), and similarly small between female Chinese and Caucasian patients (1.5 mm, standard deviation 0.8 mm, P <0.01). Multivariate analysis demonstrated only a small influence related to ethnicity (12% relative contribution to the overall variance [R2] of the model), but substantial influence of height (40%) and sex (41%). Our findings do not support the practice of routinely selecting a smaller endotracheal tube size for Chinese patients on the basis that there is a difference related to the Chinese ethnic phenotype. Considerations regarding choice of endotracheal tube size should rather focus on patient sex and height.
