Abstract
BACKGROUND A delayed and recurrent complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) is a life-threatening complication of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Post-TAVR evaluation may be important in predicting delayed and recurrent CAVB requiring permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). The impact of new-onset right bundle-branch block (RBBB) after TAVR on PPI remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS In total, 407 patients with aortic stenosis who underwent TAVR were included in this analysis. Intraprocedural CAVB was defined as CAVB that occurred during TAVR. A 12-lead ECG was evaluated at baseline, immediately after TAVR, on postoperative days 1 and 5, and according to the need to identify new-onset bundle-branch block (BBB) and CAVB after TAVR. Forty patients (9.8%) required PPI, 17 patients (4.2%) had persistent intraprocedural CAVB, and 23 (5.7%) had delayed or recurrent CAVB after TAVR. The rates of no new-onset BBB, new-onset left BBB, and new-onset RBBB were 65.1%, 26.8%, and 4.7%, respectively. Compared with patients without new-onset BBB and those with new-onset left BBB, the rate of PPI was higher in patients with new-onset RBBB (3.4% versus 5.6% versus 44.4%, P<0.0001). On post-TAVR evaluation in patients without persistent intraprocedural CAVB, the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that new-onset RBBB was a statistically significant predictor of PPI compared with no new-onset BBB (odds ratio [OR], 18.0 [95% CI, 5.94-54.4]) in addition to the use of a self-expanding valve (OR, 2.97 [95% CI, 1.09-8.10]). CONCLUSIONS Patients with new-onset RBBB after TAVR are at high risk for PPI.

Abstract
AIM Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level reduction is highly effective in preventing the occurrence of a cardiovascular event. Contrariwise, an inverse association exists between LDL-C levels and prognosis in some patients with cardiovascular diseases-the so-called "cholesterol paradox." This study aimed to investigate whether the LDL-C level on admission affects the long-term prognosis in patients who develop acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and to examine factors associated with poor prognosis in patients with low LDL-C levels. METHODS We enrolled 410 statin-naïve patients with ACS, whom we divided into low- and high-LDL-C groups based on an admission LDL-C cut-off (obtained from the Youden index) of 122 mg/dL. Endothelial function was assessed using the reactive hyperemia index 1 week after statin initiation. The primary composite endpoint included all-cause death, as well as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke occurrences. RESULTS During a median follow-up period of 6.1 years, 76 patients experienced the primary endpoint. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that patients in the low LDL-C group had a 2.3-fold higher risk of experiencing the primary endpoint than those in the high LDL-C group (hazard ratio, 2.34; 95% confidence interval, 1.29-4.27; p=0.005). In the low LDL-C group, slow gait speed (frailty), elevated chronic-phase high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels (chronic inflammation), and endothelial dysfunction were significantly associated with the primary endpoint. CONCLUSIONS Patients with low LDL-C levels at admission due to ACS had a significantly worse long-term prognosis than those with high LDL-C levels; frailty, chronic inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction were poor prognostic factors.

Abstract
No medications have been reported to inhibit the progression of aortic valve stenosis (AS). The present study aimed to investigate whether evolocumab use is related to the slow progression of AS evaluated by serial echocardiography. This was a retrospective observational study from 2017 to 2022 at Yokohama City University Medical Center. Patients aged ≥ 18 with moderate AS were included. Exclusion criteria were (1) mild AS; (2) severe AS defined by maximum aortic valve (AV) velocity ≥ 4.0 m/s; and/or (3) no data of annual follow-up echocardiography. The primary endpoint was the association between evolocumab use and annual changes in the maximum AV-velocity or peak AV-pressure gradient (PG). A total of 57 patients were enrolled: 9 patients treated with evolocumab (evolocumab group), and the other 48 patients assigned to a control group. During a median follow-up of 33 months, the cumulative incidence of AS events (a composite of all-cause death, AV intervention, or unplanned hospitalization for heart failure) was 11% in the evolocumab group and 58% in the control group (P = 0.012). Annual change of maximum AV-velocity or peak AV-PG from the baseline to the next year was 0.02 (- 0.18 to 0.22) m/s per year or 0.60 (- 4.20 to 6.44) mmHg per year in the evolocumab group, whereas it was 0.29 (0.04-0.59) m/s per year or 7.61 (1.46-16.48) mmHg per year in the control group (both P < 0.05). Evolocumab use was associated with slow progression of AS and a low incidence of AS events in patients with moderate AS.

Abstract
AIMS High platelet-derived thrombogenicity during the acute phase of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with poor outcomes; however, the associated factors remain unclear. This study aimed to examine whether acute inflammatory response after STEMI affects platelet-derived thrombogenicity. METHODS This retrospective observational single-center study included 150 patients with STEMI who were assessed for platelet-derived thrombogenicity during the acute phase. Platelet-derived thrombogenicity was assessed using the area under the flow-pressure curve for platelet chip (PL-AUC), which was measured using the total thrombus-formation analysis system (T-TAS). The peak leukocyte count was evaluated as an acute inflammatory response after STEMI. The patients were divided into two groups: the highest quartile of the peak leukocyte count and the other three quartiles combined. RESULTS Patients with a high peak leukocyte count (>15,222/mm3; n=37) had a higher PL-AUC upon admission (420 [386-457] vs. 385 [292-428], p=0.0018), higher PL-AUC during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) (155 [76-229] vs. 96 [29-170], p=0.0065), a higher peak creatine kinase level (4200±2486 vs. 2373±1997, p<0.0001), and higher PL-AUC 2 weeks after STEMI (119 [61-197] vs. 88 [46-122], p=0.048) than those with a low peak leukocyte count (≤ 15,222/mm3; n=113). The peak leukocyte count after STEMI positively correlated with PL-AUC during primary PPCI (r=0.37, p<0.0001). A multivariable regression analysis showed the peak leukocyte count to be an independent factor for PL-AUC during PPCI (β=0.26, p=0.0065). CONCLUSIONS An elevated leukocyte count is associated with high T-TAS-based platelet-derived thrombogenicity during the acute phase of STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical compression of cardiac conduction system by transcatheter heart valves leads to complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Bulging of ventricular septum in the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) may be associated with greater compression of conduction system, leading to irreversible CAVB. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the association of ventricular septal bulging with TAVR-related CAVB and permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI). METHODS Among 294 consecutive patients with severe aortic stenosis who underwent TAVR between July 2017 and February 2023, 271 were included in the analysis. As a quantitative evaluation of bulging of the ventricular septum, the ratio of LVOT area to aortic annulus area (L/A ratio) was measured at the systolic phase of computed tomography images. RESULTS TAVR-related CAVB occurred in 64 patients (23.6%). Twenty-eight patients (10.3%) required PPI. The optimal thresholds of L/A ratio for predicting TAVR-related CAVB and PPI were 1.0181 and 0.985, respectively. Patients with less than the cut-off values had higher rate of TAVR-related CAVB and PPI than those above (28.3% vs 13.1%, p = 0.0063; 14.7% vs 4.4%, p = 0.0077, respectively). A multivariate analysis showed that L/A ratio < 1.0181 was an independent predictor of TAVR-related CAVB (odds ratio [OR] 2.65, p = 0.011), in addition to prior right bundle branch block (OR 3.76, p = 0.0005), use of a self-expanding valve (OR 1.99, p = 0.030), and short membranous septum length (OR 0.96, p = 0.037). Only L/A ratio < 0.985 was independently associated with PPI (OR 3.70, p = 0.011). CONCLUSION Low L/A ratio is a predictor of TAVR-related CAVB and PPI.

Abstract
Background: We retrospectively investigated the effects of the severity and classification of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) on left ventricular (LV) function in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: A total of 115 patients with STEMIs underwent a sleep study using a multichannel frontopolar electroencephalography recording device (Sleep Profiler) one week after STEMI onset. We evaluated LV global longitudinal strain (LV-GLS) using two-dimensional echocardiography at one week and seven months. Patients were classified as no SDB (AHI < 5 events/h), obstructive SDB (over 50% of apnea events are obstructive), and central SDB (over 50% of apnea events are central). Due to the device's limitations in distinguishing obstructive from central hypopnea, SDB classification was based on apnea index percentages. Results: The obstructive apnea index (OAI) was significantly associated with LV-GLS at one week (r = 0.24, p = 0.027) and seven months (r = 0.21, p = 0.020). No such correlations were found for the central apnea index and SDB classification. Multivariable regression analysis showed that the OAI was independently associated with LV-GLS at one week (β = 0.24, p = 0.002) and seven months (β = 0.20, p = 0.008). Conclusions: OAI is associated with persistent LV dysfunction assessed by LV-GLS in STEMI.

Abstract
Background Contradictions between management modalities of type A acute aortic dissection (TAAAD) and ST-elevation-myocardial infarction (STEMI) may result in clinical catastrophe. Therefore, we aimed to explore which 2-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) findings are optimal for differentiating TAAAD from STEMI. Methods and Results This study included 340 patients with STEMI and 340 patients with TAAAD who underwent 2DE in the emergency department between 2012 and 2021. The proximal ascending aorta (PAA) diameter and other echocardiographic parameters were analyzed. PAA diameters were measured at 4 levels in the parasternal view: Valsalva, the sinotubular junction (STJ), the PAA at 1 cm above the STJ, and the PAA at 2 cm above the STJ. Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis showed that Valsalva, STJ, PAA at 1 cm above the STJ, and PAA at 2 cm above the STJ were significant predictors of TAAAD (areas under the curve: 0.777, 0.924, 0.965, and 0.975, respectively; P<0.001) with the respective cutoff values of 39.4, 38.5, 39.8, and 41.2 mm. Multivariable analysis suggested that all 2DE parameters were significant predictors of TAAAD. Among the 2DE parameters examined, the incorporation of PAA at 2 cm above the STJ to clinical indicators exhibited the most significant diagnostic capability (C-statistics, 0.97; net reclassification improvement, 1.81; integrated discrimination improvement, 0.61). When only TAAAD with coronary malperfusion and STEMI were analyzed, the diagnostic utility of PAA at 1 cm above the STJ was evident (C-statistics, 0.99; net reclassification improvement, 1.79; integrated discrimination improvement, 0.67), with PAA at 2 cm above the STJ ranking second in diagnostic significance (C-statistics, 0.99; net reclassification improvement, 1.12; integrated discrimination improvement, 0.66). Conclusions PAA measurements were the most beneficial for diagnosing TAAAD in all 2DE findings and TAAAD from STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the effect of glycemic variability (GV), determined using a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS), on left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS A total of 201 consecutive patients with STEMI who underwent reperfusion therapy within 12 h of onset were enrolled. GV was measured using a CGMS and determined as the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE). Left ventricular volumetric parameters were measured using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI). LVRR was defined as an absolute decrease in the LV end-systolic volume index of > 10% from 1 week to 7 months after admission. Associations were also examined between GV and LVRR and between LVRR and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; cardiovascular death, acute coronary syndrome recurrence, non-fatal stroke, and heart failure hospitalization). RESULTS The prevalence of LVRR was 28% (n = 57). The MAGE was independent predictor of LVRR (odds ratio [OR] 0.98, p = 0.002). Twenty patients experienced MACE during the follow-up period (median, 65 months). The incidence of MACE was lower in patients with LVRR than in those without (2% vs. 13%, p = 0.016). CONCLUSION Low GV, determined using a CGMS, was significantly associated with LVRR, which might lead to a good prognosis. Further studies are needed to validate the importance of GV in LVRR in patients with STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Recently, there has been increasing awareness that bleeding may lead to adverse outcomes. Endothelial dysfunction is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular and bleeding events. This study aimed to investigate the association of endothelial dysfunction with major bleeding and specific causes of death in addition to major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndrome. METHODS This single-centre retrospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary-care hospital; patients with acute coronary syndrome were included between June 2010 and November 2014 (median follow-up, 6.1 years). The reactive hyperaemia index was assessed before their discharge; reactive hyperaemia index <1.67 was defined as endothelial dysfunction. The main outcomes were the incidence of major bleeding, all-cause death, cardiovascular death, non-cardiovascular death, resuscitated cardiac arrest, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, and hospitalisation for heart failure. RESULTS Among the included 674 patients with acute coronary syndrome, 264 (39.2%) had endothelial dysfunction. Multivariable Cox-hazard analyses revealed an independent predictive value of endothelial dysfunction for major bleeding (hazard ratio 2.29, 95% confidence interval 1.17-4.48, P = 0.016) and major adverse cardiovascular events (hazard ratio 2.04, 95% confidence interval 1.43-2.89, P < 0.001). The endothelial dysfunction group patients had a 2.5-fold greater risk of cardiovascular death; however, no association was found with non-cardiovascular death. CONCLUSION Endothelial dysfunction assessed using reactive hyperaemia index predicted future major cardiovascular event as well as major bleeding and cardiovascular death in patients with acute coronary syndrome.

Abstract
AIMS To elucidate the long-term cardiovascular benefit of lowering postprandial hyperglycemia (PPG) in early-stage T2DM patients. METHODS This 10-year post-trial follow-up study included 243 patients from the DIANA (DIAbetes and diffuse coronary Narrowing) study, a multi-center randomized controlled trial which compared the efficacy of one-year life-style and pharmacological (voglibose/nateglinide) intervention lowering PPG on coronary atherosclerosis in 302 early-stage T2DM subjects [impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or newly-diagnosed T2DM] (UMIN-CTRID#0000107). MACE (all-cause death, non-fatal MI or unplanned coronary revascularization) were compared in (1) three assigned therapies (life-style intervention/vogliose/nateglinide) and (2) patients with and without improvement of PPG (reversion from IGT to NGT or from DM to IGT/NGT on 75 g oral glucose tolerance test). RESULTS During the 10-year post-trial observational period, voglibose (HR = 1.07, 95%CI: 0.69-1.66, p = 0.74) or nateglinide (HR = 0.99, 95%CI: 0.64-1.55, p = 0.99) did not reduce MACE. Similarly, achieving the improvement of PPG was not associated with a reduction of MACE (HR = 0.78, 95%CI: 0.51-1.18, p = 0.25). However, in IGT subjects (n = 143), this glycemic management significantly reduced the occurrence of MACE (HR = 0.44, 95%CI: 0.23-0.86, p = 0.01), especially unplanned coronary revascularization (HR = 0.46, 95%CI: 0.22-0.94, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The early improvement of PPG significantly reduced MACE and unplanned coronary revascularization in IGT subjects during the post-trial 10-year period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rapidly progressive, extensive myocardial injury/infarction (RPEMI) beyond the concept of wave-front phenomenon can be observed even when achieving timely reperfusion; however, the pathogenesis of RPEMI remains unknown. This retrospective study investigated clinical and lesion characteristics of RPEMI, focusing on culprit-lesion morphology (CLM). METHODS Among patients with extensive anterior-wall ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction due to proximal left anterior descending artery lesions who had reperfusion within 3 hours of symptom onset, 60 patients undergoing both intravascular ultrasound and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were enrolled. Myocardial injury/infarction before reperfusion therapy was assessed by QRS scores at hospitalization electrocardiogram, and the extent of myocardial injury/infarction was evaluated by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, which measured area at risk, infarct size, myocardial salvage index, microvascular obstruction, and left ventricular ejection fraction. RPEMI was defined as lower left ventricular ejection fraction (less median value) with microvascular obstruction. RESULTS Despite comparable onset-to-door and onset-to-reperfusion times and area at risk, patients with RPEMI showed higher QRS scores at hospitalization (5 [4.3-6] versus 3 [2-4], P<0.001) and infarct size (26.5±9.1 versus 20.4±10.5%, P=0.04), and a tendency toward lower myocardial salvage index (0.27±0.14 versus 0.36±0.20, P=0.10) compared with those without. Patients with versus without RPEMI more frequently observed specific CLM on intravascular ultrasound, characterized by the combination of vulnerable plaques, plaque ruptures, and/or large thrombi. When stratified by CLM-score composed of these 3 criteria, higher CLM-scores were or tended to be associated with higher QRS scores and incidence of RPEMI. In multivariate analyses including no-reflow phenomenon and final coronary-flow deterioration, increased CLM-score (≥2) was independently associated with high QRS scores and RPEMI (odd ratio 11.25 [95% CI, 2.43-52.00]; P=0.002). CONCLUSIONS Vulnerable CLM was a consistent determinant of advanced myocardial injury/infarction both before and after reperfusion therapy and may play a pivotal role in the development of RPEMI.

Abstract
AIMS Reduced skeletal muscle mass is a major component of sarcopenia, associated with impaired exercise capacity and poor prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). Measurement of skeletal muscle mass by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry may be affected by fluid retention, typically in the patients' lower extremities. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the association between upper and lower extremity skeletal muscle mass (USM and LSM) and all-cause mortality in hospitalized patients with HF, after discharge. METHODS This was a single-centre observational cohort study of 418 patients (59% were men) admitted with a diagnosis of HF (71 ± 13 years), with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 39 ± 16%. USM and LSM were measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry with patients in a stable state after decongestion therapy. RESULTS The USM and LSM were 5.29 ± 1.18 and 13.78 ± 3.20 kg for men and 3.37 ± 0.68 and 9.19 ± 1.80 kg for women. A positive correlation was obtained between USM and LSM with mid-upper arm circumference (r = 0.684, P < 0.001) and calf circumference (r = 0.822, P < 0.001), respectively. During a median follow-up of 37 months, 92 (22.0%) of the 418 patients died. A Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that sex-specific quartiles of USM/height2 and LSM/height2 were associated with all-cause mortality (both P < 0.001 by the log-rank test). In Cox models adjusted by age, sex, creatinine, haemoglobin, NYHA class, and height2 , the hazard ratio with 95% confidence intervals for all-cause mortality was 0.557 [0.393-0.783] (P < 0.001) for USM per 1 kg, and 0.783 [0.689-0.891] (P < 0.001) for LSM per 1 kg. The receiver-operator-characteristic curve analysis showed a comparable area under the curve between the USM/height2 and LSM/height2 (0.557 vs. 0.568, P = 0.562) in predicting all-cause mortality. The ratio of USM to LSM was significantly lower in 37 patients with residual leg oedema than in the 360 patients without oedema (36.1% vs. 38.1%, P = 0.004), suggesting the influence of oedema on measured LSM. CONCLUSIONS Both USM and LSM had a prognostic implication on mortality after discharge in HF, even though LSM may have been affected by leg oedema. These findings indicate that clinicians should not ignore a patient's USM or LSM in the prognostication of patients with HF.

Abstract
LV mechanical dispersion is a measure of regional heterogeneity of myocardial contraction. LV mechanical dispersion has been reported as an important prognosticator in STEMI. 3D speckle tracking enables us to precisely measure LV mechanical dispersion. LV mechanical dispersion by 3D speckle tracking can precisely predict prognosis.
Background The role of left ventricular (LV) mechanical dispersion estimated after an ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Methods The study participants were 208 consecutive patients (152 men, age = 72 years) presenting with STEMI for the first time who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 12 h of STEMI onset. Within 48 h of PCI (mean = 24 h), 2D and 3D speckle-tracking echocardiography were performed. The global longitudinal strain (GLS) was calculated using 3D (3D-GLS) and 2D (2D-GLS) speckle tracking. Mechanical dispersion was defined using the standard deviation (SD) of the time to regional peak longitudinal strain (LS) for all 16 segments for both 2D-STE and 3D-STE (2D-LS-SD, 3D-LS-SD). Infarct size was estimated by Tc99m-sestamibi as the total area of < 50% of the uptake area at 2 weeks. The patients were followed up for a longer period of time (median118months) and checked for major adverse cardiac events (MACE: cardiac death, heart failure). Results During follow-up, 55 patients experienced MACE. The cut-off values were determined using receiver operating characteristic curves. The multivariate analysis revealed that a 3D-LS-SD > 56.7 ms was a significant predictor of MACEs (hazard ratio = 1.991, 95% confidence interval 1.033–3.613, p = 0.03), but 2D-LS-SD > 58.1 ms was not an independent predictor of MACEs (hazard ratio = 1.577, 95% confidence interval 0.815–3.042, p = 0.1). Furthermore, the combination of 3D-GLS and 3D-LS-SD had accurate predictability for MACE, as shown by the Kaplan-Meier curves (log rank, χ2 = 94.1, p < 0.0001). Conclusions LV mechanical dispersion besides 3D-GLS assessed by 3D-STE immediately after PCI can predict long-term prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of left atrial (LA) function in the long-term prognosis of ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) is still unclear.Methods and Results: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed in 433 patients with the first episode of STEMI within 12 h of onset. The patients underwent echocardiography 24 h after admission. LA reservoir strain and other echocardiographic parameters were analyzed. Follow up was performed for up to 10 years (mean duration, 91 months). The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE): cardiac death or hospitalization due to heart failure (HF). MACE occurred in 90 patients (20%) during the follow-up period. Multivariate Cox hazard analyses showed LA reservoir strain, global longitudinal strain (GLS), age and maximum B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) were the significant predictors of MACE. Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated that LA reservoir strain <25.8% was a strong predictor (Log rank, χ2=76.7, P<0.0001). Net reclassification improvement (NRI) demonstrated that adding LA reservoir strain had significant incremental effect on the conventional parameters (NRI and 95% CI: 0.24 [0.11-0.44]) . When combined with GLS >-11.5%, the patients with LA reservoir strain <25.8% were found to be at extremely high risk for MACE (Log rank, χ2=126.3, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS LA reservoir strain immediately after STEMI onset was a significant predictor of poor prognosis in patients, especially when combined with GLS.

Abstract
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) was developed as a technique to treat aortic stenosis (AS) and is associated with significant improvements in aortic valve area and trans-aortic valve gradient in the early and immediate periods after the procedure. BAV is commonly performed using a trans-femoral retrograde approach; however, trans-femoral access is associated with frequent access-site bleeding. Among 146 patients with symptomatic severe AS who were treated with BAV in our institution, 123 patients received BAV treatment via a trans-radial approach using a 7-Fr Glidesheath. The balloon size was 16-20 mm for all patients. Echocardiograms were obtained before and after BAV. Patients who received BAV alone (n = 119) were followed up for 3 months, and major adverse events (stroke, re-hospitalization for heart failure, and death) and procedural complications were recorded. At post-procedural echocardiography, the mean trans-valvular gradient (49.7 ± 21.5-42.5 ± 17.6 mmHg; p < 0.0001) was reduced significantly. All patients in this study did not die or require valve surgery within the first 7 days after BAV. Successful BAV was obtained in 45.6% of the patients. No patients had severe aortic insufficiency or BAV access-site bleeding. Three patients died suddenly and 4 patients were readmitted for heart failure. Trans-radial BAV is safe and may be useful as a bridging therapy for trans-catheter aortic valve replacement or surgical aortic valve replacement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) after ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) can predict the prognosis. This study investigated the clinical significance of a serial 3D-STE can predict the prognosis after onset of STEMI.Methods and Results:This study enrolled 272 patients (mean age, 65 years) with first-time STEMI treated with reperfusion therapy. At 24 h after admission, standard 2D echocardiography and 3D full-volume imaging were performed, and 2D-STE and 3D-STE were calculated. Within 1 year, 19 patients who experienced major adverse cardiac events (MACE; cardiac death, heart failure requiring hospitalization) were excluded. Among the 253 patients, 248 were examined with follow-up echocardiography. The patients were followed up for a median of 108 months (interquartile range: 96-129 months). The primary endpoint was the occurrence of a MACE; 45 patients experienced MACEs. Receiver operating characteristic curves and Cox hazard multivariate analysis showed that the 2D-global longitudinal strain (GLS) and 3D-GLS at 1-year indices were significant predictors of MACE. The Kaplan-Meier curve demonstrated that a 3D-GLS of >-13.1 was an independent predictor for MACE (log-rank χ2=165.5, P<0.0001). The deterioration of 3D-GLS at 1 year was a significant prognosticator (log-rank χ2=36.7, P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The deterioration of 3D-GLS measured by STE at 1 year after the onset of STEMI is the strongest predictor of long-term prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with low body mass index (BMI) exhibit worse clinical outcomes than obese patients; however, to our knowledge, no prospective, nationwide study has assessed the effect of BMI on the clinical outcomes of AMI patients.Methods and Results:In this multi-center, prospective, nationwide Japanese trial, 2,373 AMI patients who underwent emergent percutaneous coronary intervention within 12 h of onset from the Japanese AMI Registry (JAMIR) were identified. Patients were divided into the following 4 groups based on their BMI at admission: Q1 group (BMI <18.5 kg/m2, n=133), Q2 group (18.5≤BMI<25.0 kg/m2, n=1,424), Q3 group (25.0≤BMI<30.0 kg/m2, n=672), and Q4 group (30.0 kg/m2≤BMI, n=144). The primary endpoint was all-cause death, and the secondary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and non-fatal stroke. The median follow-up period was 358 days. Q1 patients were older and had lower prevalence of coronary risk factors. Q1 patients also had higher all-cause mortality and higher incidence of secondary endpoints than normal-weight or obese AMI patients. Multivariate analysis showed that low BMI (Q1 group) was an independent predictor for primary endpoint. CONCLUSIONS AMI patients with low BMI had fewer coronary risk factors but worse clinical outcomes than normal-weight or obese patients.

Abstract
Whether free fatty acids (FFAs), which are generators of reactive oxygen species and substrates of cytotoxic lipid peroxidation products in proximal tubules of the kidney, can be a predictor of worsening renal function (WRF) is not fully elucidated. A total of 110 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention within 24 h after symptom onset were included. The exclusion criteria were out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, vasospastic angina, hemodialysis, and/or lack of data. FFAs and serum cystatin C were measured on admission, and urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) was measured 3 h after admission. WRF, defined as an increase in serum creatinine by ≥ 0.3 mg/dL for 2-year follow-up, was observed in 16 patients (15%). A multivariate logistic regression analysis (a stepwise algorithm) revealed that the FFA level was an independent predictor of WRF (P = 0.024). The FFA level was associated with WRF adjusted after serum cystatin C (odds ratio [OR]: 1.378 per 1 mEq/L, P = 0.017), L-FABP (OR: 1.370 per 1 mEq/L, P = 0.016), or the Mehran contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) risk score (OR: 1.362 per 1 mEq/L, P = 0.021). The FFA level was inversely associated with the change in estimated glomerular filtration rate level for 2 years (R2 = 0.051, P = 0.018). The FFA level on admission was associated with the mid-term WRF in patients with STEMI.

Abstract
Acute cardiovascular disease, such as acute myocardial infarction and aortic disease, can lead to a serious life-threatening state within minutes to hours, so early accurate diagnosis, and appropriate treatment without delay are essential. To provide high-quality and timely treatment, 24-h availability of medical staff and cardiologists, as well as a cardiac catheterization laboratory are needed. In Japan, the number of patients with acute cardiovascular disease is increasing with the aging population and westernization of lifestyle; however, workstyle reforms for physicians, including a policy to limit overtime work, have been legislated. Under these conditions, it is necessary to centralize hospitals that treat cardiovascular emergency diseases as high-volume centers and build a patient triage system for allocating patients before hospital arrival. The prehospital 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) plays a central role in prehospital diagnosis and triage, and its importance will increase in future. We discuss the current and future state of the cardiovascular emergency medical care system utilizing prehospital 12-lead ECG in urban areas of Japan.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Chronic inflammation has been receiving considerable attention as an emerging risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In contrast, with the aging of the population, frailty has been also attracting a great deal of attention as the residual risk for cardiovascular disease. Although inflammation and frailty exacerbate each other and have an adverse effect on many diseases, the relationship between chronic inflammation and frailty and the impact of these combination on long-term prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are not elucidated.
Purpose
The aims of this study were to determine the association between chronic inflammation and frailty and its impact on long-term cardiovascular outcomes in patients with ACS.
Methods
A total of 482 consecutive ACS patients with obstructive coronary artery disease (age 66±12 years, male 81%) were enrolled in this observational study. We evaluated patients' gait speed as a measure of frailty before discharge. C-reactive protein (CRP) levels at 1 month after discharge were also evaluated as inflammation in the chronic phase. According to commonly used criteria of the residual inflammation (CRP>0.2 mg/dL) and the definition of the European Working Group for Sarcopenia (gait speed ≤0.8 m/sec), patients were stratified by 4 subgroups: low/high CRP with slow/normal gait speed. The primary endpoint was composite outcomes of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.
Results
While there was no significant association between CRP levels and gait speed in all patients, a significant negative association between two variables was observed in the high CRP group (Spearman's ρ = −0.31, p=0.001). During the median follow-up of 6 years, primary endpoints have occurred in 82 patients. Overall, event-free rates differed significantly among the 4 groups, demonstrating the lowest event-free rate in the patients with high CRP and slow gait speed (p<0.0001; Figure). In the multivariate analysis, high CRP (adjusted HR 1.99, 95% CI 1.14–3.46, p=0.02) and slow gait speed (adjusted HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.09–3.04, p=0.02) were independently and significantly associated with the primary endpoint. Moreover, the patients with both high CRP and slow gait speed had a 2.6-fold higher risk of cardiovascular events compared to others (adjusted HR 2.62, 95% CI 1.36–5.05, p=0.004).
Conclusion
In the patients with ACS, CRP levels and gait speed were negatively associated in the high CRP group. Chronic inflammation and frailty were both associated with poor prognosis in ACS and in particular, the combination of these factors was strongly associated with poor prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Landiolol enables us to treat the patients with rapid atrial fibrillation (AF) with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) efficiently. We sought to determine the role of echocardiography in predicting the prognosis. METHODS Among 314 patients, a total 115 ADHF patients with reduced ejection fraction and rapid AF were enrolled. They received landiolol treatment to decrease the heart rate (HR) to <110 bpm and change HR (ΔHR) of >20% within 24 h. The dose of landiolol was increased every 2 h; then, we performed echocardiography repeatedly, at baseline, 2 h, and 24h. We followed the patients after discharge for 180 days, and checked cardiac death and HF hospitalization as major adverse cardiac events (MACE). RESULTS During initial hospitalization, 5 patients (4%) died. During 180 days after discharge, 19 (16%) out of 115 patients experienced MACE (2 cardiac death, 17 HF rehospitalization, 5 in-hospital death). Multivariate analysis showed that the change in left ventricular outflow tract-velocity time integral (LVOT-VTI) at 2 h was the most significant predictor for MACE (hazard ratio =1.21, 95% confidence interval: 1.10-1.83, p=0.0001). Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated the patients with deteriorated LVOT-VTI at minimum dose landiolol suggested the high-risk patients for MACE (χ2=30.9, p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS During landiolol treatment, the patients with deteriorated LVOT-VTI predicted the poor prognosis. We may detect the high-risk patients by two-point echocardiography. UMIN000020084.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Both low appendicular skeletal muscle index (ASMI) and specific abdominal fat composition [i.e., increased visceral to subcutaneous (V/S) fat ratio] have been associated with cardiovascular events. However, the combined impact of these 2 components on long-term outcomes remains unclear, especially in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS In 303 patients with STEMI, ASMI and V/S fat ratio were assessed using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and abdominal computed tomography. Based on the criteria of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia and median of V/S fat ratio, sarcopenic obesity (SO) pattern was defined as low ASMI with high V/S fat ratio. The primary endpoint was composite outcomes of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, hospitalization for heart failure and unplanned revascularization. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 3.9 years, primary endpoint occurred in 67 patients. Patients with an SO pattern showed significantly lower event-free survival rate compared with those without (p=0.006 by log-rank). Notably, when stratified by median age (67 years), this trend was particularly prominent in the younger-age group (p <0.001), but not significant in the older-age group (p=0.38). In the younger-age group, the multivariate analysis revealed that patients with SO pattern had a 2.97 (1.10-7.53) fold higher risk for primary endpoints compared with those without. CONCLUSIONS Low ASMI with high V/S fat ratio, or so-called sarcopenic obesity, was associated with poor prognosis after STEMI, particularly in younger-age patients. The combined assessment of skeletal muscle with abdominal fat distribution may help stratify the risk among patients with STEMI, rather than each component alone.

Abstract
The complete blood cell count is one of the most frequently ordered laboratory tests, and many parameters, including red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and mean platelet volume (MPV), are available. The purpose of this study was to investigate the usefulness of the combination of RDW and MPV in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Patients with STEMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention were retrospectively enrolled (n = 229). The association between RDW as well as MPV and cardiovascular events was investigated. The median age was 67 years, and males made up 85% of the sample. Median RDW was 13.6%, and median MPV was 8.2 fL. During a median follow-up period of 528 days (IQR 331.5-920.5), 41 patients died or experienced major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). Patients with RDW ≧ 13.7% had more deaths or MACCEs with marginal significance (p = 0.0799). Patients with MPV ≧ 8.3 fL had significantly more deaths or MACCEs (p = 0.0283). Patients with RDW ≧ 13.7% and MPV ≧ 8.3 fL had significantly more deaths or MACCEs (p = 0.0185). MPV was significantly associated with death or adverse events in patients with STEMI who were treated with primary PCI. RDW had only a weak association with death or adverse events. The results of the combination of MPV and RDW were similar to those of MPV.

Abstract
Background: The significance of late diastolic velocity (a') obtained by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), which reveals atrial function, in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. This study evaluated the association of TDI parameters determined either immediately or 2 weeks after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with long-term outcomes. Methods and Results: In all, 740 patients with first-time STEMI underwent immediate PCI (i.e., within 12 h of onset). Echocardiography was performed in 307 patients 2 weeks after onset (Group A; mean age 64 years, 249 males), in 277 patients immediately after PCI (Group B; mean age 65 years, 229 males), and in 156 patients twice (i.e., immediately and 2 weeks after PCI; Group C; mean age 65 years, 135 males). Patients were followed-up for up to 10 years (mean 81 months). The primary endpoints were cardiac death or heart failure hospitalization. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) occurred in 143 patients (19%) during the follow-up period. Both univariate and multivariate Cox hazard analyses were used to determine predictors of MACE. At 24 h and 2 weeks after STEMI onset, a' and E/e' were the strongest predictors of MACE, respectively. Conclusions: TDI parameters have different implications depending on the timing of echocardiography after a first-time STEMI. Based on the results of this study, atrial dysfunction measured by TDI 24 h after STEMI onset may indicate a poor prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) after ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with left ventricular (LV) remodeling and 1-year prognosis. This study investigated the clinical significance of 3D-STE in predicting the long-term prognosis of patients with STEMI.Methods and Results:A total of 270 patients (mean age 64.6 years) with first-time STEMI treated with reperfusion therapy were enrolled. At 24 h after admission, standard 2D echocardiography and 3D full-volume imaging were performed, and 2D-STE and 3D-STE were calculated. Patients were followed up for a median of 119 months (interquartile range: 96-129 months). The primary endpoint was occurrence of a major adverse cardiac event (MACE: cardiac death, heart failure with hospitalization), and 64 patients experienced MACEs. Receiver operating characteristic curves and Cox hazard multivariate analysis showed that the 3D-STE indices were stronger predictors of MACE compared with those of 2D-STE. Additionally, 3D-global longitudinal strain (GLS) was the strongest predictor for MACE followed by 3D-global circumferential strain (GCS). The Kaplan-Meier curve demonstrated that 3D-GLS >-11.0 was an independent predictor for MACE (log-rank χ2=132.2, P<0.0001). When combined with 3D-GCS >-18.3, patients with higher values of 3D-GLS and 3D-GCS were found to be at extremely high risk for MACE. CONCLUSIONS Global strain measured by 3D-STE immediately after the onset of STEMI is a clinically significant predictor of 10-year prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cachexia, characterized by loss of muscle with or without loss of fat mass, is a poor prognostic factor in patients with heart failure (HF). However, there is limited investigation on the prognostic impact of muscle and fat mass separately in HF. We hypothesized that muscle and fat mass have different effects on the prognosis of HF. METHODS This was an observational cohort study of 418 patients (59% were men) admitted with a diagnosis of HF (71 ± 13 years [mean ± standard deviation]), with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 39 ± 16%, including 31.3%, 14.8%, and 53.8% of patients with preserved LVEF (LVEF ≥ 50%), mid-range LVEF (40-50%), and reduced (<40%) LVEF, respectively. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was performed with the patients in the stable state after decongestion therapy. RESULTS The mean body mass index of patients was 22.1 ± 4.6 kg/m2 , and the mean appendicular skeletal mass (ASM) index was 6.88 ± 1.23 kg/m2 in men and 5.59 ± 0.92 in women; 54.1% of the patients showed reduced muscle mass defined by the international cut-off value (7.0 kg/m2 for men and 5.4 for women). The mean fat mass was 20.4 ± 7.2% in men and 27.2 ± 8.6% in women. During a median follow-up of 37 months, 92 (22.0%) of 418 patients with HF died (1 and 3 year mortality: 8.4% and 17.3%, respectively). Lower values of both skeletal muscle and fat mass were independently associated with increased risk of mortality adjusted for age, sex, haemoglobin, New York Heart Association functional class, and height squared (hazard ratio with 95% confidence interval of 0.825 [0.747-0.908] per 1 kg increase of ASM, P < 0.001, and 0.954 [0.916-0.993] per 1 kg increase of fat mass, P = 0.018, respectively). CONCLUSIONS More than half of the patients with HF showed reduced muscle mass. Lower values of both muscle and fat mass were associated with higher mortality in HF.

Abstract
AIMS Acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMICS) is associated with substantial mortality, although there are limited data available on bleeding in this critical condition. This study sought to investigate the incidence and impact of major in-hospital bleeding on all-cause mortality in patients with AMICS who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS Between 2015 and 2017, a total of 3411 patients hospitalized within 24 h after symptom onset were prospectively enrolled in the Japan Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (JAMIR) and followed up for a median of 293 (interquartile range, 22-375) days. AMICS developed in 335 (9.8%) patients (mean age, 71.3 ± 13.6 years). Overall, the rate of major in-hospital bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium types 3 and 5) and in-hospital mortality was 14.6% and 28.7%, respectively. The majority of major in-hospital bleeding (73.5%) occurred within 48 h after PCI. Compared to patients without major in-hospital bleeding, those with it had higher rates of renal failure, left main coronary artery culprit lesion, and intra-aortic balloon pump or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support, and had longer door-to-device time. The cumulative incidence of 1-year all-cause mortality was significantly higher in the major bleeding group compared to the non-major bleeding group (63.8% vs. 25.5%; log-rank P < 0.001). After adjusting for confounders, major in-hospital bleeding was independently associated with increased all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 1.70; 95% confidence interval, 1.08-2.69). CONCLUSIONS These findings of JAMIR indicate that major in-hospital bleeding is associated with all-cause mortality in patients with AMICS who undergo PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND De-escalation of P2Y12 inhibitor may occur for various clinical reasons in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We aimed to assess the characteristics and outcomes of patients who underwent a de-escalation strategy in real-world clinical practice. METHODS AND RESULTS We studied 2604 AMI patients initially treated with prasugrel using the Japan Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (JAMIR) database. Of these, 110 (4%) were discharged on clopidogrel [de-escalation group; switching 4 days after admission (median)] and the remaining 2494 continued prasugrel at discharge (continuation group). The de-escalation group had higher incidence of heart failure or history of cerebrovascular disease, and were more likely to receive mechanical circulatory support, and oral anticoagulation than the continuation group. During mean follow-up of 309±133 days post-discharge, no significant differences were observed in ischemic events (2.2% vs. 2.8%, p = 0.74) or major bleeding (1.1% vs. 1.6%, p = 0.72) between the de-escalation and continuation groups. CONCLUSIONS Although, patients with de-escalation from prasugrel to clopidogrel had higher bleeding risk profile than those continued on prasugrel, post discharge ischemic and bleeding events were similar between patients with and without de-escalation. De-escalation strategy may be an option for AMI patients with high risk for bleeding.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the characteristics and prognosis of patients with vasospastic angina (VSA) diagnosed by a provocation test with a secondary prevention implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD), compared with patients with organic coronary stenosis. We retrospectively evaluated 309 consecutive patients who received an ICD implantation between January 2010 and March 2018 in our institutions. Of these patients, 206 were implanted with an ICD for secondary prevention. In these 206 patients, 40 with VSA and 72 with organic coronary stenosis were evaluated. Patients with VSA were characterized by younger age (56.1 ± 13.1 versus 69.2 ± 9.5 years, respectively), and a lower prevalence of diabetes (15.0% versus 40.3%, respectively) and heart failure (2.5% versus 26.4%, respectively) than patients with organic coronary stenosis (P < 0.001). Using the Kaplan-Meier analysis, with the VSA group as the reference, the incidence of appropriate ICD shock was similar between the two groups (hazard ratio, 0.85; 95% confidence interval, 0.341-2.109; P = 0.722). The incidence of ventricular fibrillation was significantly higher in the VSA group (hazard ratio, 0.22; 95% confidence interval, 0.057-0.814; P = 0.024), whereas the incidence of major adverse cardiac events, including cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, hospitalization for unstable angina pectoris, and heart failure, was significantly higher in the organic coronary stenosis group (hazard ratio, 13.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.756-98.17; P = 0.012). In conclusion, patients with VSA with an ICD implanted for secondary prevention have a higher risk of ventricular fibrillation and lower risk of major adverse cardiac events than patients with organic coronary stenosis.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle function has been studied to determine its effect on glucose metabolism; however, its effect on glycemic variability (GV), which is a significant glycemic marker in patients with coronary artery disease, is unknown. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the association between skeletal muscle mass and GV. Two hundred and eight consecutive ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients who underwent continuous glucose monitoring to evaluate mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) as GV and a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) to evaluate skeletal muscle mass were enrolled. Skeletal muscle index (SMI) level was calculated as skeletal muscle mass divided by height squared (kg/m2). SMI level in men had a weak inverse correlation with Log MAGE level by the linear regression model in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients (R2 = 0.139, P = 0.004) and even in non-DM patients (R2 = 0.068, P = 0.004). Multivariate linear regression analysis with a stepwise algorithm (age, male sex, body mass index [BMI], hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c], fasting glucose, HOMA-IR, and SMI; R2 = 0.203, P < 0.001) demonstrated that HbA1c level (B = 0.077, P < 0.001) and SMI level (B = - 0.062, P < 0.001) were both independently associated with Log MAGE level. This association was also confirmed in limited non-DM patients with a subgroup analysis. SMI level was associated with Log MAGE level (B = - 0.055, P = 0.001) independent of BMI or HbA1c level. SMI level was inversely associated with MAGE level independent of glucose metabolism in STEMI patients, suggesting the significance of skeletal muscle mass as blood glucose storage for glucose homeostasis to reduce GV.

Abstract
AIM The importance of sarcopenia in cardiovascular diseases has been recently demonstrated. This study aims to examine whether skeletal muscle mass (SMM), an important component of sarcopenia, is associated with an increased risk of poor outcome in patients after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS We measured SMM in 387 patients with STEMI using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Patients were divided into low- and high-appendicular skeletal mass index (ASMI: appendicular SMM divided by height squared (kg/m2)) groups using the first quartile of ASMI (≤ 6.64 kg/m2 for men and ≤ 5.06 kg/m2 for women). All patients were followed up for the primary composite outcome of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal ischemic stroke, hospitalization for congestive heart failure, and unplanned revascularization. RESULTS Low-ASMI group was older and had a more complex coronary lesion, a lower left ventricular ejection fraction, and a higher prevalence of Killip classification ≥ 2 than high-ASMI group. During a median follow-up of 33 months, the event rate was significantly higher in low-ASMI group than in high-ASMI group (24.7% vs 13.4%, log-rank p=0.001). Even after adjustment for patients' background, low ASMI was independently associated with the high risk of primary composite events (adjusted hazard ratio 2.06, 95% confidence interval 1.01- 4.19, p=0.04). In the subgroup analyses of male patients (n=315), the optimal cutoff point of ASMI for predicting primary composite outcome was 6.75 kg/m2, which was close to its first quartile value. CONCLUSIONS Low ASMI is independently associated with poor outcome in patients with STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to simultaneously investigate diagnostic performance and limitation of quantitative flow reserve (QFR) for assessing functionally significant coronary stenosis, focusing on factors affecting diagnostic accuracy of QFR. METHODS This study evaluated 1) QFR diagnostic accuracy compared with fractional flow reserve (FFR) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (Cohort-A, n = 95) and 2) QFR reproducibility for non-culprit lesions (NCLs) assessment between acute and staged (14±5 days later) procedures in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (Cohort-B, n = 65). All coronary angiography image acquisition was performed before the introduction of QFR system into our institution. RESULTS Cohort-A showed good correlation (r = 0.80, p<0.0001) between QFR and FFR; diagnostic accuracy of QFR for FFR ≤0.80 was 85.2% (sensitivity 80.4%, specificity 91.0%, positive predictive value 91.1%, negative predictive value 80.0%). There were 14 lesions showing discordance between QFR and FFR, which was primarily attributable to inadequate lesion visualization due to vessel overlap/tortuosity and/or insufficient intra-coronary contrast-media injection. In Cohort-B, there was also excellent correlation between acute and staged QFR; classification agreement of acute and staged QFR was 92.3%. Five lesions showed discordance between acute and staged QFR, 4 were due to limited image acquisition and/or high coronary flow velocity at acute phase of STEMI and 1 was borderline ischemia. CONCLUSIONS QFR-derived physiological assessment of intermediate coronary stenosis is feasible, even in the acute setting of STEMI. Adjusting some technical factors may further improve the diagnostic performance of QFR.

Abstract
Background
Myocardial bridge (MB), common anatomic variant, is generally considered benign, while previous studies have shown associations between MB and various cardiovascular pathologies. This study aimed to investigate for the first time possible impact of MB on long‐term outcomes in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator, focusing on life‐threatening ventricular arrhythmia (LTVA).
Methods and Results
This retrospective analysis included 140 patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator implantation for primary (n=23) or secondary (n=117) prevention of sudden cardiac death. Angiographically apparent MB was identified on coronary angiography as systolic milking appearance with significant arterial compression. The primary end point was the first episode(s) of LTVA defined as appropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator treatments (antitachyarrhythmia pacing and/or shock) or sudden cardiac death, assessed for a median of 4.5 (2.2–7.1) years. During the follow‐up period, LTVA occurred in 37.9% of patients. Angiographically apparent MB was present in 22.1% of patients; this group showed younger age, lower rates of coronary risk factors and ischemic cardiomyopathy, higher prevalence of vasospastic angina and greater left ventricular ejection fraction compared with those without. Despite its lower risk profiles above, Kaplan–Meier analysis revealed significantly lower event‐free rates in patients with versus without angiographically apparent MB. In multivariate analysis, presence of angiographically apparent MB was independently associated with LTVA (hazard ratio, 4.24; 95% CI, 2.39–7.55;
P
<0.0001).
Conclusions
Angiographically apparent MB was the independent determinant of LTVA in patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillator. Although further studies will need to confirm our findings, assessment of MB appears to enhance identification of high‐risk patients who may benefit from closer follow‐up and targeted therapies.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The early transmitral flow velocity (E) divided by the early diastolic velocity of the mitral valve annulus (e') is referred to as the “E/e' ratio,” is useful even for ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the role of late diastolic velocity (a') which reveals the atrial function for STEMI is still unclear.
Objectives
We evaluated the clinical usefulness of tissue Doppler including atrial function for a first-time STEMI by long time follow up. Furthermore, we evaluated the meaning of each parameters by performing immediately after PCI or 2 weeks later.
Methods
We treated consecutive 571 first-time STEMI patients by immediate PCI within 12 hours after onset, and we examined 270 patients at immediately after PCI (GroupA, 65 years, 250 male) and 301 patients at 2 weeks after onset (GroupB, 64 years, 243 male). We examined trans mitral flow and TDI, then defined E/e' as LV filling pressure and A/a' as left atrial function. We followed them for a long time (>5 years). The primary end point (PE) was cardiac death or re-admission for heart failure (HF).
Results
We followed the patients in Group A for 10 years, Group B for 5 years. PE occurred in 64 patients in GroupA during 10 years, and 45 patients in GroupB during 5 years. We analyzed the univariate and multivariate Cox hazard analyses and we compared e' and a', E/e' and A/a' (Table). In GroupA, a' and A/a' were the independent predictors, on the other hand neither a' nor A/a' were the predictors in GroupB. E/e' was an independent predictor both in GroupA and B.
Conclusion
TDI parameters have different meanings by the timing of echocardiography after onset of a first-time STEMI. These results demonstrated that atrial dysfunction immediately after onset of STEMI suggests the poor prognosis after STEMI.
