Abstract
Sub-Saharan Africa has been the last continent to experience a significant number of cases in the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19). Studies suggest that air pollution is related to COVID-19 mortality; poor air quality has been linked to cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, and respiratory diseases, which are considered co-morbidities linked to COVID-19 deaths. We examine potential connections between country-wide COVID-19 cases and environmental conditions in Senegal, Cabo Verde, Nigeria, Cote D'Ivorie, and Angola. We analyze PM2.5 concentrations, temperatures from cost-effective in situ measurements, aerosol optical depth (AOD), and fire count and NO2 column values from space-borne platforms from 1 January 2020 through 31 March 2021. Our results show that the first COVID-19 wave in West Africa began during the wet season of 2020, followed by a second during the dry season of 2020. In Angola, the first wave starts during the biomass burning season but does not peak until November of 2020. Overall PM2.5 concentrations are the highest in Ibadan, Nigeria, and coincided with the second wave of COVID-19 in late 2021 and early 2022. The COVID-19 waves in Cabo Verde are not in phase with those in Senegal, Nigeria, and Cote, lagging by several months in general. Overall, the highest correlations occurred between weekly new COVID-19 cases meteorological and air quality variables occurred in the dry season.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to investigate sleep characteristics, use of supplements, and training volume of recreational triathletes, and to verify possible associations with perceived performance drops and occurrence of injuries. MATERIALS AND METHODS Recreational triathletes (n=942) answered a questionnaire inquiring about their demographic characteristics, performance, injuries and training volume. RESULTS When comparing athletes who slept more (9-10 hours) with those who slept less, less sleep was associated with a higher prevalence of perceived performance drops. Regarding difficulties in initiating sleep, the absence of initiating difficulties (p<0.001) was a protective factor against perceived performance drops. Regarding weekly training volume, compared to those who trained more than 20 hours, training less than 3 hours (p<0.001), 3-5 hours (p<0.001), or 12-14 hours (p<0.001) were protective factors against perceived performance drops. Concerning training volume and injuries, we found that compared to those who trained more than 20 hours, training 18-20 hours (p<0.001), 15-17 hours (p<0.001), 12-14 hours (p<0.001), 6-8 hours (p<0.001), or 3-5 hours (p<0.001) were protective factors against injuries. CONCLUSIONS Triathletes with a lower sleep quantity and those who have difficulties initiating sleep frequently experience drops in performance. Training volumes can influence both performance and the likelihood of injuries.

Abstract
Cephalopods are a group of marine invertebrates that have received little attention as sentinel species in comparison to other molluscs, such as bivalves. Consequently, their physiological and biochemical xenobiotic metabolism responses are poorly understood. Here we undertake a comparative analysis of the enzymatic activities involved in detoxification reactions and neural transmission in the digestive tract of two commercial cephalopods: the Common octopus, Octopus vulgaris, and the European cuttlefish, Sepia officinalis. For methodological purposes, several common B-esterases (five carboxylesterase (CE) substrates and three cholinesterase (ChE) determinations) were assayed as a proxy of metabolic and neuronal activities, respectively. Four components of the digestive tract in each species were considered: salivary glands, the stomach, the digestive gland and the caecum. The in vitro responses of digestive gland homogenates to model chemicals and contaminants of environmental concern were contrasted between both cephalopod species. The baseline biochemical activities in the four digestive tract components were also determined. Moreover, in order to validate the protocol, purified proteins, recombinant human CE (CE1 and CE2) and purified eel acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were included in the analysis. Overall, carboxylesterase activities were higher in octopus than in cuttlefish, with the activity quantified in the digestive tract components in the following order: digestive gland ≈ caecum > stomach ≈ salivary glands, with higher hydrolysis rates reached with naphthyl-derived substrates. In contrast, cuttlefish hydrolysis rates with ChE substrates were higher than in octopus. This trend was also reflected in a higher sensitivity to CE inhibitors in octopus and to AChE inhibitors in cuttlefish. Given the detoxification character of CEs and its protective role preventing AChE inhibition, octopus could be regarded as more efficiently protected than cuttlefish from neurotoxic exposures. A full characterisation of B-esterases in the digestive tract of the two common cephalopods is also provided.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Left ventricular myocardial work (LVMW) is a novel method to evaluated left ventricular (LV) function using pressure-strain loops. It might correct global longitudinal strain (GLS) for afterload, being eventually useful to assess whether GLS reduction is due to reduced contractility (reflected as reduced myocardial work) or increased afterload (reflected as increased myocardial work).
Aim
To describe indices of LVMW in a group of patients with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis (AS).
Methods
We prospectively studied 104 consecutive patients (age: 71 years [IQR 66.5–75.5] years, 51% men) with severe symptomatic high gradient AS: mean transaortic pressure gradient: 56.5mmHg [IQR 46.8–67.8]; aortic valve area: 0.73cm2 [IQR 0.61–0.88]; indexed stroke volume: 47.7±1.3 mL/m2 (11 patients with low-flow AS), preserved LV ejection fraction (EV) (LVEF: 56.0% [51.0–61.3]; GLS: −14.5% [IQR −16.1 to −10.6]), with no previous coronary artery disease and no history of cardiomyopathy. Beyond complete transthoracic echocardiography, all patients underwent cardiac magnetic resonance for LV myocardium tissue characterization. As proposed for AS, LV systolic pressure was corrected adding the mean transaortic pressure gradient to non-invasive systolic blood pressure cuff measurement in the echocardiographic algorithm. Four LVMW indices were collected in 83 patients (patients excluded for atrial fibrillation, left bundle branch block or absence of non-invasive blood pressure registration) and correlated to LV function indexes, LV hypertrophy and remodeling, myocardial tissue characterization, BNP and troponin levels (Pearson or Spearman correlation). These same indexes were compared in patients with LV ejection fraction (EF) below and above 50%, normal and reduced flow and presence of replacement fibrosis.
Results
Global constructive work (GCW) (2658.6±76.4mmHg%), global myocardial work (GMW) (2218.7±74.9mmHg%) and global wasted work (GWE) (262.0mmHg% [198.8–339.5]) were high above normal with concomitant lower work efficiency (WE) (88.0% [83.2–91.8]. Weak correlations were found between LVMW indexes and parameters describing aortic valve severity, flow and LV function (table). Except for significant differences of LVMI in patients with reduced LV ejection fraction (GCW 2770.3±687.4 vs 2056.0±380.7mmHg%, p=0,014 and GMW 2362.5±657.9 vs 1621.3±319.9, p=0,021 in patients with LV EF>50% vs. LV EF<50%, respectively) work indexes were neither significantly different in low-flow patients nor in those with myocardial late gadolinium enhancement.
Conclusions
Global constructive and myocardial work are increased in these patients with severe aortic stenosis. This might reflect an increased afterload predominance rather than a LV functional impairment, particularly relevant in this group of patients with exclusive high gradient disease and preserved LVEF.

Abstract
Background
Left Ventricular (LV) Global Function index (LVGFi) is a parameter that combines data from global systolic performance and volumetric anatomical information, measurable by non-contrast Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR). We aimed to evaluate whether LVGFi predicts major cardiovascular outcomes and outperforms LV ejection fraction (LVEF) in Heart Failure (HF).
Methods
We conducted a retrospective single-centre study of consecutive patients with HF who were referred to and had a LVEF <50% at CMR. Other than inadequate images for endocardial or epicardial border delineation, there were no exclusion criteria. LVEF was determined by 3D measurement. LVGFi was calculated as the LV stroke volume to the LV global volume ratio (Figure 1). The primary endpoint was a composite of time to all-cause death or HF hospitalization.
Results
The cohort was comprised of 433 HF patients (mean age 64±12 years, 74.1% male, ischaemic HF 53.1%, NYHA I-II 83.9%) with a mean LVEF of 33.5±10.0% and LVGFi of 22.8±7.4%. Over a median follow-up of 27 (17–37) months, 85 (19.6%) met the primary endpoint and 42 (9.7%) died. Patients with an event of the primary endpoint had markers of more severe HF, as noted by a reduced functional capacity (NYHA I-II: 63.5 vs. 89.0%; p<0.001) and increased natriuretic peptides [NT-proBNP: 2664 (1022–27242) vs. 791 (337–7258); p<0.001). Likewise, CMR showed higher LV volumes (e.g., LV end-diastolic volume index: 137±50 vs. 120±43mL/m2; p=0.001) and reduced LV performance indices, namely LVEF (29.2±10.6 vs 34.5±9.6%; p<0.001) and LVGFi (19.8±7.4 vs 23.6±7.3%; p<0.001). Both LVEF and LVGFi independently predicted the primary endpoint in multivariate analysis (separately imputed into a model adjusted for NYHA, NT-proBNP and creatinine). The LVEF model was more powerful than that of LVGFi. Similarly, LVGFi did not provide incremental prognostic information over LVEF in c-statistics analysis (0.653 vs. 0.622; p=0.645) (Figure 2).
Conclusion
While LVGFi independently predicted major outcomes in patients with HF and LVEF <50%, it did not surpass LVEF. Our findings contrast to those demonstrating LVGFi as a powerful variable that outperforms LVEF in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, cardiac amyloidosis, and healthy subjects at risk of developing structural heart disease. We hypothesize that LVGFi might be primarily useful in the prognostic stratification of patients with preserved LVEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Inflammation plays a pivotal role in the atherogenic process and recently has been the target of successful clinical trials. A new CT angiography method allows the identification of inflammatory pericoronary fat, which is associated with cardiovascular events. We aimed to determine whether patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) have a higher pericoronary inflammatory milieu when compared to those without CAD.
Methods
From a prospective CT angiography registry of patients with suspected obstructive CAD, those with a luminal stenosis >70% confirmed by invasive coronary angiography were screened (previous coronary artery bypass grafting was an exclusion criteria). Subsequently, we applied a 1:1 propensity score (PS) without replacement protocol to match obstructive CAD patients with those without CAD (non-CAD), using age, gender, BMI, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes and smoking status as covariates. Similar to previous reports, pericoronary fat characterization by CT angiography was performed by analyzing the fat attenuation index (FAI) at the −30 to −190 HU range. Inflammatory fat was defined by a FAI >−70 HU. The proximal 50mm of the right coronary artery (RCA) was used to perform fat quantification and characterization. The perivascular fat was defined as the adipose tissue within a radial distance from the outer vessel wall equal to the diameter of the vessel.
Results
A matched cohort of 48 patients was identified (mean age 63 years; 77% males) – 24 obstructive CAD and 24 non-CAD patients. Mean FAI was numerically higher in obstructive CAD compared to the non-CAD cohort (−74±7 vs −78±7; p=0.083). Although not statistically significant, those with obstructive CAD had an increased proportion of inflammatory fat (51±10 vs 46±10%; p=0.107). After adjustment for body surface area (BSA), differences in the inflammatory fat proportion became apparent between obstructive CAD and non-CAD patients (28±6 vs 24±5%/m2; p=0.024). Furthermore, we observed a significant correlation between the inflammatory fat proportion (both absolute value and BSA adjusted) and the total number of RCA plaques (r=0.458; p=0.003; and r=0.451; p=0.003, respectively). Finally, there was 1 additional plaque observed in the RCA for each increase in 10% of proportion of inflammatory fat (p=0.018).
Conclusions
Perivascular coronary inflammation, as measured by FAI, seems significantly heightened in patients with obstructive CAD compared to a matched cohort of non-CAD patients. Further studies are needed to ascertain the mechanisms and possible implications of this association.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is recommended in the evaluation of selected patients with Heart Failure (HF). Notwithstanding, its prognostic significance has mainly been ascertained in those with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <40% (i.e., HFrEF). The main goal of our study was to assess the role of CPET in risk stratification of HF with mid-range (40–49%) LVEF (i.e., HFmrEF) compared to HFrEF.
Methods
We conducted a single-center retrospective study of consecutive patients with HF and LVEF <50% who underwent CPET from 2003–2018. The primary composite endpoint of death, heart transplant or HF hospitalization was assessed.
Results
Overall, 404 HF patients (mean age 57±11 years, 78.2% male, 55.4% ischemic HF) were included, of whom 321 (79.5%) had HFrEF and 83 (20.5%) HFmrEF. Compared to the former, those with HFmrEF had a significantly higher mean peak oxygen uptake (pVO2) (20.2±6.1 vs 16.1±5.0 mL/kg/min; p<0.001), lower median minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production (VE/VCO2) [35.0 (IQR: 29.1–41.2) vs 39.0 (IQR: 32.0–47.0); p=0.002) and fewer patients with exercise oscillatory ventilation (EOV) (22.0 vs 46.3%; p<0.001). Over a median follow-up of 28.7 (IQR: 13.0–92.3) months, 117 (28.9%) patients died, 53 (13.1%) underwent heart transplantation, and 134 (33.2%) had at least one HF hospitalization. In both HFmrEF and HFrEF, pVO2 <12 mL/kg/min, VE/VCO2 >35 and EOV identified patients at higher risk for events (all p<0.05). In Cox regression multivariate analysis, pVO2 was predictive of the primary endpoint in both HFmrEF and HFrEF (HR per +1 mL/kg/min: 0.81; CI: 0.72–0.92; p=0.001; and HR per +1 mL/kg/min: 0.92; CI: 0.87–0.97; p=0.004), as was EOV (HR: 4.79; CI: 1.41–16.39; p=0.012; and HR: 2.15; CI: 1.51–3.07; p<0.001). VE/VCO2, on the other hand, was predictive of events in HFrEF but not in HFmrEF (HR per unit: 1.03; CI: 1.02–1.05; p<0.001; and HR per unit: 0.99; CI: 0.95–1.03; p=0.512, respectively). ROC curve analysis demonstrated that a pVO2 >16.7 and >15.8 mL/kg/min more accurately identified patients at lower risk for the primary endpoint (NPV: 91.2 and 60.5% for HFmrEF and HFrEF, respectively; both p<0.001).
Conclusions
CPET is a useful tool in HFmrEF. Both pVO2 and EOV independently predicted the primary endpoint in HFmrEF and HFrEF, contrasting with VE/VCO2, which remained predictive only in latter group. Our findings strengthen the prognostic role of CPET in HF with either reduced or mid-range LVEF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recently, a new staging system for severe aortic stenosis (AS) based upon the extent of extra-aortic-valve cardiac damage has been developed (Genereux et al. Eur Heart J 2017). The present study aimed to: 1) determine the prevalence of the different stages of extra-aortic valvular cardiac damage and its impact on prognosis in a real-world Portuguese cohort and; 2) evaluate the distribution of aortic valve calcium score (AV-CaSc) and its prognostic value.
Methods
Consecutive patients evaluated at a single-centre TAVI-programme between Nov/2015 and Nov/2018 were retrospective selected. The extent of extra-aortic valve cardiac damage was defined by echocardiography as stage 0 (no cardiac damage), stage 1 (left ventricular damage), stage 2 (mitral valve or left atrial damage), stage 3 (tricuspid valve or pulmonary artery vasculature damage) or stage 4 (right ventricular damage). AV-CaSc was estimated routinely at CT-angiography as per TAVI-programme protocol. The primary endpoint was 1-year all-cause mortality after CT-angiography. Survival analysis (Cox-regression hazards model and Kaplan-Meier) was performed. To account for the effect of aortic valve replacement (AVR), this variable entered the Cox-regression model as a time-dependent covariate.
Results
A total of 443 patients (mean age 82±7 years, 44% men, median euroSCORE II 4% [IQR 2.4–5.8]) were identified. After Heart Team discussion, 79% (n=349) underwent AVR (TAVI=307; surgical valve repair=42); 9% (n=42) await intervention; 6% (n=25) remain under medical treatment; 4% (n=19) died during the period of evaluation; and 2% (n=8) underwent palliative aortic balloon valvuloplasty.
According to the proposed classification, the distribution of patients from stages 0 through 4 was: 0.2% (n=1), 7.5% (n=34), 67.8% (n=306), 14% (n=63), and 10.4% (n=47). Additionally, for each increasing stage of cardiac damage, the burden of AV-CaSc was higher (from stage 1 through 4: 1776 [IQR 1217–2448]; 2448 [1796–3442]; 2448 [1832–3622]; 2960 [1936–4878] units; p for trend = 0.002).
All-cause mortality at 1-year was 14% (n=63). Mortality increased alongside with increasing extent of cardiac damage (from stage 0 through 4: 0% [n=0], 6% [n=2], 12% [n=36], 20% [n=12], and 30% [n=13]) – Fig. Multivariable analysis revealed chronic renal disease (HR 1.37 per stage [1.15–1.64], p<0.001), AV-CaSc (HR 1.02 per 100 units [1.01–1.03], p=0.007), AVR (HR 0.46 [0.26–0.81], p=0.007) and stage of cardiac damage (HR 1.54 per stage [1.15–2.05], p=0.004) as independent predictors of 1-year mortality.
Conclusion
In a real-world Portuguese cohort of severe AS patients, the extent of cardiac damage was associated with 1-year mortality. AV- CaSc grants additional prognostic information to this classification. Incorporation of this staging system into patient evaluation may be useful in the risk assessment of severe AS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has recently been proposed to quantify lung water density (LWD, %) non-invasively. Given that pulmonary congestion plays a key role in the pathophysiology of Heart Failure (HF), we designed a study to assess the prognostic significance of a simplified LWD measure in patients with HF and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).
Methods
We conducted a single-center retrospective study of consecutive patients with HF and LVEF <50% who underwent CMR on a 1.5T scanner. Those with severe interstitial lung disease or chronic liver disease were excluded. All measurements were performed in a parasagittal plane at the right midclavicular line on a standard HASTE sequence, which is widely available in all CMR studies. As previously reported, LWD was determined by the lung-to-liver signal ratio multiplied by 0.7. A cohort of 102 healthy controls was used to derive the upper limit of normal (mean ± 2SD) of the LWD (21.2%). The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death or HF hospitalization.
Results
A total of 290 HF patients (mean age 64±12 years, 74.8% male, 56.2% of ischemic etiology) with a mean LVEF of 34±10% were included. LWD measurement took on average 35±4 seconds and showed excellent inter-observer agreement (intra-class correlation coefficient >0.90). LWD was increased in 65 (22.4%) patients. Compared to those with normal LWD, the former were more symptomatic (NYHA ≥III: 29.2% vs. 1.8%; p=0.017) and had higher median NT-proBNP [1973 (IQR: 809–3766) vs 802 (IQR: 355–2157pg/mL); p<0.001]. During a median followup of 21 months (IQR: 13–29), 20 (6.9%) patients died and 40 (13.8%) had at least one HF hospitalization. In multivariate analysis, LVEF (HR per 1%: 0.96; CI-95%: 0.93–0.99; p=0.024), creatinine (HR per 1mg/dL: 2.43; CI-95%: 1.25–4.71; p=0.009) and LWD (HR per 1%: 1.06; CI-95%: 1.01–1.12; p=0.013) were independent predictors of the primary endpoint. The findings were mainly driven by an association between LWD and HF hospitalization (HR per 1%: 1.08; CI-95%: 1.03–1.13; p=0.002).
Conclusions
A CMR-derived method for LWD quantification independently predicts an increased risk of death or HF hospitalization in HF patients with LVEF <50%. Our results support LWD measurement as a simple, reproducible and widely available method, further adding to the prognostic role of CMR in this population.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and aim
In many centers, coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is performed immediately before coronary CT angiography (CCTA) in order to exclude heavy calcification that could hamper test performance. When high CACS values are found, CCTA is usually aborted and other tests suggested. However, there are no recommendations on which test to pursue, and little data on their diagnostic yield in this setting. The aim of this study was to assess the type and results of downstream testing among patients whose CCTA study was halted due to high CACS.
Methods
Single-centre retrospective study of consecutive patients undergoing CCTA for suspected obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). A CACS threshold of >400 was generally used to cancel CCTA. Downstream testing and its results were assessed using electronic medical records. A group of consecutive patients with CACS <400 who underwent CCTA was used for comparison.
Results
Of the 795 patients who performed CCTA for suspected CAD, 86 (10.8%), had their test halted due to high CACS (57 men, mean age 71±11 years). In this subgroup, the median pre-test probability for CAD was 27% (interquartile range 25) and the median CACS was 983 (interquartile range 930). Compared to patients who underwent CCTA, those who saw their tests cancelled were older, more frequently male, and had higher prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors and higher pre-test probability for CAD.
Patient's downstream testing is illustrated in Figure. From the 86 patients enrolled, 12 are currently waiting for downstream tests and were excluded from further analysis. Overall, 35 patients ended up performing invasive coronary angiography (ICA, 47.3%) of whom 19 (54.3%) had significant CAD. Among those who underwent non-invasive testing (N=19, 25.7%), 10 (52.6%) had significant ischemia and 4 (21%) underwent additional testing with ICA. In 24 patients (32.4%), no downstream testing was pursued. Finally, 17 (22.3%) patients underwent coronary revascularization, either percutaneous (N=10, 13.5%) or surgical (N=7, 10.8%).
Conclusion
Invasive coronary angiography is the most frequently used downstream test when CCTA is halted due to high CACS values, and shows significant CAD in roughly half of the cases. Considering the high prevalence of significant CAD, direct referral for ICA (with the possibility of invasive functional testing) seems a reasonable approach.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Several studies have addressed the importance of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in risk prediction of subsequent adverse events after ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). While several traditional echo parameters have a well-established prognostic value, data derived from 2D-Speckle Tracking Echocardiography (2DSTE) needs further investigation.
Objectives
To determine if 2DSTE parameters provide additional information beyond conventional echocardiography to predict long-term adverse outcomes in patients admitted with STEMI
Methods
Retrospective, single-center study, that included all patients without previous cardiovascular events admitted with STEMI (who underwent primary coronary angioplasty) between 2015 and 2017. Patients with poor acoustic windows, severe valvular disease, irregular heart rhythm, and those who died during hospital stay were excluded. We reviewed all pre-discharge TTE to assess conventional parameters of LV systolic and diastolic function and data obtained by 2DSTE: global longitudinal strain (GLS) and peak strain dispersion (PSD), an index that is the standard deviation from time to peak strain of all segments over the entire cardiac cycle. Demographic and clinical data was obtained through electronic hospital records. Minimum follow-up was 2 years. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause mortality and cardiovascular re-admission at follow-up. Survival analysis was used to determine independent predictors of the primary endpoint.
Results
377 patients were included, mean age 62±13 years, 72% male. Mean LVEF was 50±10% with 19% of patients having LVEF <40%. Mean indexed left atrium volume (LAVi) was 33±10 ml/m2, mean GLS was −14±4%, and PSD was 60±22 msec. Average follow-up was 36±11 months, with a combined endpoint of mortality and hospitalization of 27% (n=102)
Univariate analysis of echocardiographic variables revealed an association between heart rate, LVEF, indexed LV end-systolic volume, indexed stroke volume, LAVi, GLS and PSD with the endpoint. However, on multivariate analysis only LAVi [HR 1.030 (95% CI 1.009 - 1.051), p-value = 0.005] and PSD [HR 1.011 (95% CI 1.002 - 1.020), p-value = 0.012] remained independent predictors of the primary endpoint.
We determined that a PSD value higher than 52 msec has a sensitivity of 76% and a negative predictive value of 83% for mortality and hospitalization, and that this cut-off point discriminates patients at a higher risk of events in Kaplan-Meier Survival analysis with a Log-Rank p-value=0.001.
Conclusion
PSD derived by longitudinal strain analysis is a promising prognostic predictor after STEMI. PSD outperformed conventional echocardiographic parameters in the risk stratification of STEMI patients at discharge.

Abstract
Abstract
Relative apical sparing (RAS) of LV longitudinal strain (LS) is a red flag for diagnostic suspicion of amyloid cardiomyopathy (AC). However, it may present in pts with aortic stenosis (AS), where the prevalence of transthyretin AC is being increasingly reported.
Aim
To describe the prevalence of RAS deformation pattern in patients with AS and its clinical significance.
Methods
We prospectively studied 53 pts (71±8y, 54.7% men) with severe symptomatic AS - mean gradient (AVM): 54.6 mmHg; aortic valve area 0.74cm2, referred for surgical replacement with no previous history of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Beyond ECG and transthoracic echo (TTE), all pts underwent CMR, with tissue characterization before surgery. RAS was defined as average apical LS / average basal LS + average mid LS >1 at 2D LV LS analysis. Aortic valve replacement and septal myocardial biopsy were already performed in 26 pts. AS severity indexes, LV remodelling and tissue characterization were compared in both groups, with and without RAS.
Results
RAS was present in 16 pts (30.8%). There were neither pseudoinfarct pattern or low voltage at ECG, nor infiltration suspicion from CMR study (native T1 value 1047ms [IQR 1028–1084]; ECV 22% [IQR 18–25]). Furthermore, none of the pts had suspicion of amyloid deposition at histopathology. Median CMR LVEF was 64.5% [IQR 51.3–70.8%] and 36 pts (67.9%) had non-ischemic DE, with a median fraction of 6.0% [IQR 4.9–12.7%] of LV mass. Comparing both groups, RAS cohort showed a significantly higher AVM, relative wall thickness, maximum septal thickness, peak systolic dispersion and higher LV indexed mass, DE and lower LVEF at CMR. RAS group has also higher NT pro BNP (Table).
Conclusions
RAS is common in this group of pts despite the absence of clinical and histological signs of myocardial infiltration. RAS occurs with worse indexes of LV remodeling and fibrosis consistent with a more advanced stage of the disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Progressive myocardial fibrosis takes part in left ventricular (LV) remodeling in aortic stenosis (AS) and drives the transition from hypertrophy to heart failure. Replacement fibrosis may be characterized by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR).
Aim
To assess the prevalence and association between LGE and indexes of LV function in patients with severe aortic stenosis.
Methods
We prospectively studied 53 consecutive patients (age: 71±8 years [min. 51–max. 84], 54.7% men) with severe symptomatic AS, referred for surgical aortic valve replacement with no previous history of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Aortic valve mean gradient was 54.6 mmHg [IQR 46.6–63.2] and aortic valve area 0.74cm2 [IQR 0.61–0.89]; all patients with high gradient, 4 with low-flow. CMR with tissue characterization (T1 mapping, LGE and extracellular volume by ECV quantification – using 5SD from remote myocardium as signal intensity cut-off), was performed before surgery. AS severity indexes, LV mass, systolic and diastolic LV function indexes including global longitudinal strain (GLS) and torsion were compared in both groups of patients, with and without LGE.
Results
Mid-wall LGE was present in 36 patients (67.9%) with a median fraction of 6.0% [IQR 4.9–12.7%] of LV mass. Native T1 value and ECV were within normal ranges (median values: 1047ms [IQR 1028–1084]; 22% [IQR 18–25], respectively). Median CMR LV ejection fraction and mass were 64.5% [IQR 51.3–70.8%] (11 patients with reduced EF) and 76.5g/m2 [IQR 57.4–94.8g/m2], respectively. Median GLS was −13.9% [IQR −11.4 to −17.0%] and torsion was 24.2° [IQR 19.8–32.5°]. Patients with LGE had significantly higher LV mass (87.1g/m2 vs 63.3 g/m2, p=0.001), worse GLS (−14.4% vs −16.9%, p=0.041) and higher NT-proBNP values (1333.7ng/mL vs 559.9ng/mL, p=0.004) (Figure).
Conclusions
Non-ischemic LGE is common in this group of patients with severe symptomatic high gradient aortic stenosis. As it is more prevalent in patients with more pronounced LVH, lower longitudinal deformation and higher NT-proBNP values, it probably represents a more advanced stage of the disease.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Disproportionate functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is a novel concept that tries to identify hemodynamically significant FMR by readjusting the effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) and regurgitant volume (RegVol) cut-offs according to left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, this theoretical concept lacks clinical validation. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical significance of disproportionate FMR.
Methods
Patients with at least mild FMR and reduced LVEF (<50%) who underwent transthoracic echocardiography between 2010 and 2014 were retrospectively identified in our laboratory database. Optimal medical therapy (including cardiac resynchronization when indicated) for ≥3 months was a prerequisite for inclusion. Hemodynamically significant FMR was defined as regurgitant fraction >50% and the patient-specific theoretical RegVol cut-off was calculated according to the formula presented in Fig. 1a. The difference between the estimated RegVol by the PISA method and the theoretical RegVol cut-off was considered to represent the haemodynamic burden of MR. The primary endpoint was all-cause death. Patients were censured if mitral intervention or heart transplant was undertaken. Survival analysis was used to assess the effect of disproportionate FMR on mortality in 2 subgroups (LVEF <30% and 30–49%).
Results
A total of 289 patients (median age 69 years [IQR 60–77], 75% male, 53% of ischemic aetiology) were included. More than 90% were on beta-blockers and renin-angiotensin inhibitors, 44% on aldosterone receptor antagonists, and 73% had implanted devices. The median LVEF and LVEDV were 34% (IQR 27–41) and 170mL (IQR 128–220), respectively. Median EROA was 10mm2 (IQR 3–21) and RegVol was 15 mL (IQR 4–30). RegVol distribution across the cohort was: <10mL: 41%; 10–20mL: 18%; 20–30mL: 15% and >30mL: 26%. Disproportionate FMR was present in 83 patients (29%). These patients had significantly higher SPAP values (41mmHg [IQR 33–50] vs. 33mmHg [IQR 29–40]; p<0.001).
During a median follow-up of 44 months (IQR 19–73), 106 patients died. In the LVEF <30% subgroup, age (HR 1.05 per year [1.02–1.08]; p<0.001), LVEF (HR 0.94 per 1% [0.89–0.99]; p=0.042) and TAPSE (HR 0.92 per mm [0.86–0.99]; p=0.030) were independent predictors of mortality. In the LVEF 30–49% subgroup, age (HR 1.05 per year [1.02–1.08]; p=0.003), LVEF (HR 0.94 per 1% [0.89–0.99]; p=0.020) and disproportionate FMR (HR 1.02 per mL [1.01–1.03]; p=0.01) were independently associated with increased mortality.
Conclusions
Disproportionate FMR proved to be an important independent predictor of mortality in patients with LVEF between 30–49%. These findings were not replicated in those with LVEF<30%, where the degree of biventricular dysfunction seems to outweigh all other echocardiographic parameters, leaving FMR as a bystander.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Carnival is a popular festival that was introduced in Brazil from the European heritage. However, it was the enslaved African people who saw forms and processes of resistance for the construction of identity during this festive period. The reframing and resistance that blacks establish with carnival is the result of a cultural need to stay alive both as a subject and as a collective. This is how samba schools emerge in the urban peripheries of Rio de Janeiro as a form of artistic, cultural and leisure production. Associations acquire for themselves the role of the State in providing access to rights that many are denied, neglected or scrapped. In these schools, it is possible to observe a relationship of belonging and donation (”principle of gift”) on the part of their so-called community, they are passions and meanings that produce relationships of self-care reaffirmation of intersubjectivity.
Objective
This work aims to identify the carnival as a space for the production of projects, resistances and protagonisms and to analyze the meanings of the subjective processes of health, disease, care and carnival, through the narratives of a samba school community.
Methodology
This is an exploratory analysis of a qualitative approach in public health. A samba school was chosen from the special group of the capixaba carnival, which is located in a peripheral region. We will use it to define snowball technical sampling. The data will be collected through semi-structured interviews and on-site observations by the researcher. The data analysis methodology used will be discourse analysis.
Expected Results
It is expected to understand the different practices and processes of health, disease, care and carnival, among a peripheral community that is part of a samba school.
Key messages
This work aims to analyze health care about a cultural aspect of marginalized populations and how health policies are related to carnival. Impact on the production of knowledge about popular culture and health.

Abstract
Objective
To know the dynamic processes that involve the production of care for women in situations of violence.
Methods
Study of qualitative approach and cartographic inspiration based on the theoretical reference of Institutionalism that had as scenario a reference center for women in domestic violence located in Espírito Santo, Brazil. Six professionals who worked directly in the care of women participated in the research. Interventions were carried out, through seven workshops, using storytelling. The material production tools were narratives, the researcher's field diary and the collective field diary, which was built from the record and observation of all the participants in the study. The workshops were held at the center according to the availability of participants and lasted an average of 60 minutes. The meetings were recorded and later transcribed together with the notes of the field diaries, seeking, through a cartography, to give meaning to the experiences lived by the participants. Through the analysis of implication, it was possible to give visibility to the various relationships that constitute a certain reality, in which the researcher is involved.
Results
The study pointed out that violence crosses all women influencing the production of care offered by professionals at the reference center. The narratives multiplied senses contributing to the problematization of the care offered, providing the qualification of other ways of thinking/acting in health.
Conclusions
From an ethical-aesthetic-political paradigm it is possible to produce reflections that broaden the view of care for women in violent situations beyond biological issues, contributing with desirable productive processes in the prevention of violence and the promotion of health.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A qualitative and exploratory study that analyzed the perspective of access to Integrative and Complementary Practices in Health (PICS) by listening users from a selected service of primary care of a municipality.
Objective
Analyze the access to PICS in a health public service of a municipality in a state of Brazil, from the perspective of users, as well as aimed at understand the needs and desires of health care these users in the search process and use of PICS, identifying facilitators and barriers in this trajectory.
Methods
The theoretical reference from Frenk on access was used, which systematizes the flow of events at the moment when the health need is perceived until the effectiveness of the care, besides the demand and entrance in the health services and the continuity of the treatment. The data collection was done by participant observation and semi-structured interview with 29 users of the service. The narratives were worked through the analysis of thematic content.
Results
The results indicated two groups of PICS: complex medical systems and therapeutic resources. There were differences in the organization of the offer with consequent influence on the different forms of access. It was registered the interest for the use of health care in a non-biomedical logic and a re-signification of the health-disease process in PICS users, contributing to the continuity of health production.
Conclusions
It was concluded that the current models of access analysis do not contemplate the diversities of access to the PICS, and the various possibilities of encounters with these practices allow the identification of the marginality of this care in all cases analyzed.
Key messages
Integrative and Complementary Health Practices gain national relevance as they contribute to the development of health promoting activities, focus on the individual, prevention and comprehensive care. However, considered a controversial topic in a hegemonically biomedical scenario, the incorporation of these new knowledge and practices in the health field occurs in a marginal way.

Abstract
One of the main obstacles to studying the pathophysiology of lymphedema development is the lack of appropriate experimental models. Following up on a mouse-tail method that has been described, we performed changes to the method which made it easier to perform in our hands and demonstrated similar results. Twenty C57Black mice were operated on using the previous technique and euthanized after 3 or 6 weeks. Another twenty mice were submitted to the new technique developed in our laboratory and euthanized at the same time points. Tissue samples were collected from the proximal part of the tail (control) and from the distal part (lymphedema) for both models. Animals in both operative groups developed marked edema in the distal part of the tail. This was characterized by lymph vessels dilation, edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and adipose tissue deposition. Lymphedema was detected after 3 weeks in both models, reaching its maximum after 6 weeks. Adipocytes detected by histology (Oil red O staining) and molecular markers for adipogenesis, lymphangiogenesis and inflammation (lipin 1 and 2, SLP76, and F4-80) were demonstrated to be increased equally in both models. In conclusion, both models provide a reliable method to study lymphedema pathophysiology. However, our modified technique is easier and faster to perform while still providing reliable and consistent results.

Abstract
Case Presentation
A 49 year-old male presented to the emergency department with fever and lower limb myalgia for 5 days. His past history was notable for acute episodes of microcrystalline pyrophosphate oligoarthritis for which he was receiving allopurinol 100mg, colchicine 1mg and prednisolone 5mg. Physical examination was unrevealing. Laboratory workup showed normocytic normochromic anemia (Hb 12.8g/dL), leukocytosis (22 490 /mm3), neutrophilia (86.8%), increased C-reactive protein (CRP
26mg/dL), low procalcitonin (0.82ng/mL) and mildly elevated creatinine-kinase (83 UI/L). The patient was admitted with fever of unknown origin and started on ceftriaxone after blood and urine cultures.
He remained febrile with persistently heightened inflammation. Cultures, infectious and auto-immune tests, bone marrow biopsy, myelogram and abdominopelvic CT scan were negative. Three weeks later, syncope due to complete atrioventricular (AV) block led to temporary pacemaker implantation. Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) revealed a left atrial (LA) wall thickening,
evident on MRI as an 8-10mm T2-hyperintensity sign, with right atrial (RA) and ventricular sparing. PET/CT scan showed an 18F FDG uptake exclusively in the LA. As a neoplasia was highly suspected, a transspeptal biopsy was attempted, yet the sample was scarce for analysis. Thus, a biopsy via sternotomy was performed, now sampling both the LA and RA. Indeed, repeated TOE showed de novo RA involvement with a prominent nodular finding (19x24mm) in the lateral wall.
Myocyte inflammation and necrosis accompanied with granulocyte infiltration (mostly neutrophils but also eosinophils) was observed in all samples. There were no findings suggestive of neoplasia. The patient was still on allopurinol, which has been reported to involve the myocardium in a late (type IV) hypersensitivity reaction (the so-called DRESS syndrome), even in the absence of systemic inflammation. Thus, allopurinol was stopped and 1mg/Kg prednisolone was started. The patient
significantly improved and was discharged home with negative CRP the following two weeks. After 1 month, MRI was repeated and no atrial inflammation was found. After 4 months follow-up, he is doing well on 2.5mg of prednisolone and febuxostat 80mg.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistant bacterial communities persist in many types of wounds, chronic wounds in particular, in the form of biofilms. Biofilm formation is a major cause of severe infections and the main reason for a negative treatment outcome and slow healing progression. Chronic wounds are a silent epidemic essentially affecting people with co-morbid conditions such as diabetes and obesity and elderly persons particularly those with movement limitations. The development of complementary and alternative effective strategies to antibiotics for the treatment of chronic wounds is highly desired. Phage therapy constitutes a very promising approach in the control of topical microbial populations. In this work newly isolated phages were tested for their efficacy to control bacterial species that predominate in chronic wounds. Phage effectiveness was studied on 24-h old biofilms formed in polystyrene microplates and in porcine skin explants using two treatment approaches: individual phage and a cocktail of phages against four main pathogens commonly isolated from chronic wounds. The two models produced variations in the surface colonization ability, assessed by viable bacterial counts and microscopy visualization after using peptide nucleic acid (PNA) or locked nucleic acid probes (LNA) and 2'-O-methyl (2'-OMe) in fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and in the phage-host interactions. Phages alone and combined caused greater reductions in the number of viable cells when biofilms had been formed on porcine skins and with greater variations detected at 4 h and 24 h of sampling. These results suggest that porcine skin models should be preferentially used to assess the use of phages and phage cocktails intended for topical use in order to understand the fate, throughout treatment time, of the population when dealing with biofilm-related infections.

Abstract
Background: Brazilian breast cancer patients present disease often at advanced stages (III, IV). Previous studies indicated that system delay is a causal factor of bad prognosis and increased mortality rate. In the state of Paraíba, northeast of Brazil, two non-governmental organizations (NGOs) Américas Amigas and Mulheres de Peito de Campina Grande (MLDP), promote faster access to treatment by donating diagnostic mammography and biopsies as well as anatomo-histopathological and immunohistochemical analysis. Aim: The current study aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of the assistance provided by both NGOs and comparing patient flow between HNL and FAP, two reference cancer centers in João Pessoa and Campina Grande, respectively. Methods: Time-to-treatment was analyzed for different time intervals between first medical consultation and initiation of treatment. Comparison was performed between three groups of patients: 40 patients from Hospital Napoleão Laureano (HNL) in João Pessoa; 80 patients from Fundação Assistencial da Paraíba (FAP) in Campina Grande and 15 patients from FAP, who received support from the NGOs. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to compare time-intervals among the groups. To estimate the impact of socioeconomic variables Cox regression analysis was performed. Results: Mean time-interval between first medical consultation and hospital admission was 135 (SD=21.0), 370 (SD=73.7) and 515 (SD=36.6) days, for patients of HNL, MLDP and FAP, respectively ( P = 0.0021). Time intervals analyzed for patients within the FAP hospital, between first medical consultation and hospital admission, tended to be shorter for patients who were assisted by the NGOs, compared with those who did not receive any assistance from the NGOs. Patients who had consulted specialized oncological health services beforehand had an increased chance (HZ=2.32; 95% CI: 1.17-4.60; P = 0.016) of being admitted at the reference hospital within 90 days after the first medical consultation, compared with those who had not consulted such specialized services. There were no significant differences between HNL and FAP, regarding the time interval between hospital admission and treatment initiation ( P = 0.21). Conclusion: The assistance to patients provided by the two NGOs, aimed at speeding up the diagnosis process, accelerated patient flow between first medical consultation and admission at the hospitals. Regarding HNL, patients from the inland had been sent by primary health units in their municipalities, directly to the cancer reference hospital in João Pessoa, without being referred to an in-between health service. Such procedure explains the variation of time intervals when admissions at FAP and HNL are compared. The results of the current study indicate that by providing faster breast cancer diagnosis, the NGOs’ mediation can significantly improve patient flow.

Abstract
IntroductionPerinatal mental illness is one of the most frequent complications of pregnancy and the postpartum period. During the puerperium, the risk of developing a mental disease, such as a psychotic episode, is higher than in any other time in a woman's life.ObjectivesThe two main objectives are to describe a case series of 4 patients diagnosed with pospartum psychosis, and to synthesize the most important facets of this mental illness based on a literature review.AimsThe aim is to provide an overview of the clinical and epidemiological aspects of postpartum psychosis.MethodsThe four clinical cases are presented by describing the similar as opposed to the differential aspects between all patients, using the information obtained through successive clinical interviews and the case file. Research was accomplished through Clinical Key and PubMed (2005-2015) using the keywords: postpartum psychosis.ResultsIn all four cases, the patients developed symptoms of sleep disturbance, mood fluctuation, altered thinking process with delusions or obsessions, and bizarre behaviours. This occurred within the first four weeks after labour, which was in all cases an obstrutced labour. The data suggests that postpartum psychosis is a presentation of bipolar disorder. Clinical aspects and risk factors related to this perinatal complication all coincide with the cases presented.ConclusionsPostpartum psychosis is a rare presentation of perinatal mental illness. However, it presents itself, as a psychiatric emergency, and the early and correct assessment are crucial to reset the development of the mother–child bond.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract
BackgroundInternational professional mobility is a reality, people have skills they can put in the global marketplace. The increasing migration of health professionals to wealthy countries is a phenomenon known as “brain drain”.Objectives/AimsThis work aims to present the push factors that pressure people to migrate from Portugal.MethodsA cross-sectional survey was carried out with the psychiatric trainees in Portugal. A self-administered structured questionnaire was distributed to collect psychiatry trainees’ demographic and educational characteristics.ResultsIn Portugal, the majority of trainees have a Portuguese citizenship. Almost 2/3 did not have a short-mobility experience, and the majority never migrated to another country. Less than half consider staying in Portugal in the next years, and nearly 4/5 have considered leaving the country. Working conditions ranked first as the priority condition to be improved in psychiatry in Portugal, followed by financial conditions. In fact, an attractive job for psychiatry trainees in Portugal must have as the most important feature a pleasant work environment.ConclusionsAn alarming percentage of psychiatry trainees from Portugal intend to migrate. Impact on future career, financial conditions of doctors, job opportunities and better working conditions were some of the motivating factors behind the migration.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract
Primary lymphedema can be managed effectively as a form of chronic lymphedema by a sequenced and targeted treatment and management program based around a combination of Decongestive Lymphatic Therapy (DLT) with compression therapy, when the latter is desired as an adjunct to DLT. Treatment in the maintenance phase should include compression garments, self-management, including self-massage, meticulous personal hygiene and skin care, in addition to lymphtransport-promoting excercises and activities, and, if desired, pneumatic compression therapy applied in the home. When conservative treatment fails, or gives sub-optimal outcomes, the management of primary lymphedema can be improved, where appropriate, with the proper addition of surgical interventions, either reconstructive or ablative. These two surgical therapies can be more effective when fully integrated with manual lymphatic drainage (MLD)-based DLT postoperatively. Compliance with a long-term commitment to MLD/DLT and particularly compression postoperatively is a critical factor in determining the success of any new treatment strategy involving either reconstructive or palliative surgery. The future of management of primary lymphedema has never been brighter with the new prospect of gene-and perhaps stem-cell oriented management.

Abstract
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a sensor of energy status supporting cellular energy homeostasis that may represent the metabolic basis for 3,3,,5-triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) liver preconditioning. Functionally transient hyperthyroid state induced by T3 (single dose of 0.1 mg/kg) in fed rats led to upregulation of mRNA expression (RT-PCR) and protein phosphorylation (Western blot) of hepatic AMPK at 8 to 36 h after treatment. AMPK Thr 172 phosphorylation induced by T3 is associated with enhanced mRNA expression of the upstream kinases Ca2+ -calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase-beta (CaMKKbeta) and transforming growth-factor-beta-activated kinase-1 (TAK1), with increased protein levels of CaMKKbeta and higher TAK1 phosphorylation, without changes in those of the liver kinase B1 (LKB1) signaling pathway. Liver contents of AMP and ADP were augmented by 291 percent and 44 percent by T3 compared to control values (p less than 0.05), respectively, whereas those of ATP decreased by 64% (p less than 0.05), with no significant changes in the total content of adenine nucleotides (AMP + ADP + ATP) at 24 h after T3 administration. Consequently, hepatic ATP/ADP content ratios exhibited 64 percent diminution (p less than 0.05) and those of AMP/ATP increased by 425 percent (p less than 0.05) in T3-treated rats over controls. It is concluded that in vivoT3 administration triggers liver AMPK upregulation in association with significant enhancements in AMPK mRNA expression, AMPK phosphorylation coupled to CaMKKbeta and TAK1 activation, and in AMP/ATP ratios, which may promote enhanced AMPK activity to support T3-induced energy consuming processes such as those of liver preconditioning.
