Abstract
Rheumatologic diseases are characterised by loss of immune tolerance, resulting in systemic inflammation. Inflammation and scarring of the endocardium, which lines the inner surface of the heart chambers and valves, can result in valvular thickening and dysfunction. Estimates of prevalence vary depending on the sensitivity of the screening methodology used and range from 30%-50% in systemic lupus and rheumatoid arthritis to 10%-30% in ankylosing spondylitis. Progression of valve disease is a slow process but can result in haemodynamically significant complications. Thromboembolic complications such as cerebrovascular occlusions pose a serious risk of morbidity. The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies increases the risk of valvular disease and thrombotic complications. Anticoagulation is recommended in the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies, but the guidance on the role of immunosuppressive therapy to treat valvular disease is lacking. Surgical valve therapy may be considered in severe disease, but there is increased risk in patients with an autoimmune disease which includes a higher risk of infection, thromboembolic and bleeding complications, as well as cardiovascular events in the setting of premature atherosclerotic heart disease. Therefore, management should be provided in a multidisciplinary team that includes a rheumatologist, a cardiologist and a cardiothoracic surgeon; medical therapy should be optimised before considering a high-risk valve surgery.

Abstract
Cardiac diseases are one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality following liver transplantation (LT). Prior studies have shown that cardiac diseases affect close to one-third of liver transplant recipients (LTRs) long term and that their incidence has been on the rise. This rise is expected to continue as more patients with advanced age and/or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis undergo LT. In view of the increasing disease burden, a multidisciplinary initiative was developed to critically review the existing literature (between January 1, 1990 and March 17, 2021) surrounding epidemiology, risk assessment, and risk mitigation of coronary heart disease, arrhythmia, heart failure, and valvular heart disease and formulate practice-based recommendations accordingly. In this review, the expert panel emphasizes the importance of optimizing management of metabolic syndrome and its components in LTRs and highlights the cardioprotective potential for the newer diabetes medications (e.g., sodium glucose transporter-2 inhibitors) in this high-risk population. Tailoring the multidisciplinary management of cardiac diseases in LTRs to the cardiometabolic risk profile of the individual patient is critical. The review also outlines numerous knowledge gaps to pave the road for future research in this sphere with the ultimate goal of improving clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is becoming increasingly common and is associated with development and rapid progression of aortic stenosis (AS). Patients with AS and CKD have higher mortality rates than those with AS of similar severity and normal kidney function. The diagnosis of severe AS in patients with CKD is often challenging due to alterations in haemodynamics and heart structure, and integration of data from multiple imaging modalities may be required. When indicated, the definitive treatment for severe AS is aortic valve replacement. Patients with CKD are candidates for bioprosthetic valve replacement (surgical or transcatheter aortic valve implantation) or mechanical valve replacement. However, for patients with CKD, lifetime management is complex, as patients with CKD have a higher competing risk of bioprosthetic structural valve deterioration, bleeding in the setting of systemic anticoagulation and mortality related to CKD itself. The involvement of a heart-kidney multidisciplinary team in the care of patients with CKD and severe AS is ideal to navigate the complexities of diagnosis and management decisions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES LMNA variants have been previously associated with cardiac abnormalities independent of lipodystrophy. We aimed to assess cardiac impact of familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) to understand the role of laminopathy in cardiac manifestations. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Clinical data from 122 patients (age range: 13-77, 101 females) with FPLD were analysed. Mature human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) from a patient with an LMNA variant were studied as proof-of-concept for future studies. RESULTS Subjects with LMNA variants had a higher prevalence of overall cardiac events than others. The likelihood of having an arrhythmia was significantly higher in patients with LMNA variants (OR: 3.77, 95% CI: 1.45-9.83). These patients were at higher risk for atrial fibrillation or flutter (OR: 5.78, 95% CI: 1.04-32.16). The time to the first arrhythmia was significantly shorter in the LMNA group, with a higher HR of 3.52 (95% CI: 1.34-9.27). Non-codon 482 LMNA variants were more likely to be associated with cardiac events (vs. 482 LMNA: OR: 4.74, 95% CI: 1.41-15.98 for arrhythmia; OR: 17.67, 95% CI: 2.45-127.68 for atrial fibrillation or flutter; OR: 5.71, 95% CI: 1.37-23.76 for conduction disease). LMNA mutant hiPSC-CMs showed a higher frequency of spontaneous activity and shorter action potential duration. Functional syncytia of hiPSC-CMs displayed several rhythm alterations such as early afterdepolarizations, spontaneous quiescence and spontaneous tachyarrhythmia, and significantly slower recovery in chronotropic changes induced by isoproterenol exposure. CONCLUSIONS Our results highlight the need for vigilant cardiac monitoring in FPLD, especially in patients with LMNA variants who have an increased risk of developing cardiac arrhythmias. In addition, hiPSC-CMs can be studied to understand the basic mechanisms for the arrhythmias in patients with lipodystrophy to understand the impact of specific mutations.

Abstract
Objective Lipodystrophy represents a group of rare diseases characterized by loss of body fat. While patients with generalized lipodystrophy exhibit near-total lack of fat, partial lipodystrophy is associated with selective fat loss affecting certain parts of the body. Although classical familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) is a well-described entity, recent reports indicate phenotypic heterogeneity among carriers of LMNA pathogenic variants. Methods We have encountered 2 unique cases with complex phenotypes, generalized fat loss, and very low leptin levels that made the distinction between generalized versus partial lipodystrophy quite challenging. Results We present a 61-year-old female with generalized fat loss, harboring the heterozygous pathogenic variant p.R541P (c.1622G>C) on the LMNA gene. The discovery of the pathogenic variant led to correct clinical diagnosis of her muscle disease, identification of significant heart disease, and a recommendation for the implantation of a defibrillator. She was able to start metreleptin based on her generalized fat loss pattern and demonstration of the genetic variant. Secondly, we report a 40-year-old Turkish female with generalized fat loss associated with a novel heterozygous LMNA pathogenic variant p.K486E (c.1456A>G), who developed systemic B cell follicular lymphoma. Conclusion Clinicians need to recognize that the presence of an LMNA variant does not universally lead to FPLD type 2, but may lead to a phenotype that is more complex and may resemble more closely generalized lipo-dystrophy. Additionally, providers should recognize the multisystem features of laminopathies and should screen for these features in affected patients, especially if the variant is not at the known hotspot for FPLD type 2.

Abstract
Background Pathogenic variants in Lamin A/C (LMNA) gene are the most common monogenic etiology in Familial Partial Lipodystrophy (FPLD) causing FPLD2. LMNA pathogenic variants have been previously associated with cardiomyopathy, familial arrhythmias or conduction system abnormalities independent of lipodystrophy. We aimed to assess cardiac impacts of FPLD, and to explore the extent of overlap between cardiolaminopathies and FPLD. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of an established cohort of 122 patients (age range: 13-77, M/F 21/101) with FPLD from Michigan (n = 83) and Turkey (n = 39) with an accessible cardiac evaluation. Also, functional syncytia of mature human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) from a FLPD2 patient was studied for assessment of autonomous rhythm and action potential duration with optical mapping using a voltage sensitive dye. Results In the whole study cohort, 95 (78%) patients had cardiac alterations (25% ischemic heart disease, 36% arrhythmia, 16% conduction abnormality, 20% prolonged QT interval, 11% cardiomyopathy, and 15% congestive heart failure). The likelihood of having an arrhythmia (OR; 3.95, 95% CI: 1.49-10.49) and conduction disease (OR: 3.324, 95% CI: 1.33-8.31) was significantly higher in patients with LMNA pathogenic variants. Patients with LMNA pathogenic variants were at high risk for atrial fibrillation/flutter (OR: 6.77, 95% CI: 1.27- 39.18). The time to first arrhythmia was significantly shorter in the LMNA group with a higher hazard rate of 3.04 (95% CI: 1.29-7.17, p = 0.032). Non-482 LMNA pathogenic variants were more likely to be associated with cardiac events (vs. 482 LMNA: OR: 4.74, 95% CI: 1.41- 15.98 for arrhythmia; OR: 17.67, 95% CI: 2.44- 127.68 for atrial fibrillation/flutter; OR: 5.71, 95% CI: 1.37- 23.76 for conduction disease. hiPSC-CMs from a FPLD2 patient had higher frequency of autonomous activity, and shorter Fridericia corrected action potential duration at 80% repolarization compared to control cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, FPLD2 functional syncytia of mature hiPSC-CMs presented several rhythm alterations such as early after-depolarizations, spontaneous quiescence and spontaneous tachyarrhythmia; none of those were observed in the control cell lines. Finally, FPLD2 hiPSC-CMs presented significantly slower recovery in chronotropic changes induced by isoproterenol exposure; which indicates disrupted beta-adrenergic response. Conclusion Our results suggest the need for vigilant cardiac monitoring in FPLD, especially in patients with FPLD2 who have an increased risk to develop cardiac arrhythmias and conduction system diseases. In addition, study of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes may prove useful to understand the mechanism of cardiac disease and arrhythmias and to create precision therapy opportunities in the future.

Abstract
Background: Lipodystrophy syndromes are characterized by loss of body fat. Although classical Familial Partial Lipodystrophy (FPLD) and Congenital Generalized Lipodystrophy (CGL) have different clinical presentations, we have encountered a unique case where the distinction was quite challenging. Clinical Case: Our patient first presented to an endocrinologist at age 19 with secondary amenorrhea and hypothyroidism. After normalization of TSH, further investigation revealed central hypogonadism, hypertriglyceridemia (>3,000 mg/dL, normal<150mg/dL), xanthomas and fatty liver disease. By that time, she had adiposity changes such as lack of subcutaneous fat in the limbs and abdomen and prominent muscles. She believed she had those traits since early childhood. After puberty, she developed generalized muscle pain and was noted to have elevated CK. At 59 years old, she developed diabetes as well as liver fibrosis. These led to the diagnosis of lipodystrophy (initially classified as FPLD due to inheritance pattern). However, physical examination revealed acromegaloid features, BMI of 23.2 kg/m2, minimal fat palpable around the neck and minimal fullness of the supraclavicular fossa. The rest of the body was virtually devoid of subcutaneous fat tissue, consistent more with the CGL phenotype and inspection of older photos demonstrated progressive fat loss. She displayed prominent and hypertrophic muscles, phlebomegaly on limbs and trunk, umbilical hernia and acanthosis nigricans around the neck and armpits. Enlarged spleen and liver were also noted. There was labial hypertrophy with no cliteromegaly. Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) showed total fat percentage of 22% and a "fat shadow” was obtained highlighting the generalized pattern of fat loss. Genetic analysis revealed a pathogenic variant (p. Arg541Pro) at exon 8 of the LMNA gene. Upon identification of the variant, her previously obtained muscle biopsy was reevaluated as muscular dystrophy. Cardiovascular investigations demonstrated first-degree atrioventricular block and non-sustained ventricular tachycardia on the ECG and fibrosis on cardiac MRI. Given her family history of sudden death, a dual-chamber implantable cardioverter-defibrillator was placed. When her HbA1c rose to 7.2% on Metformin monotherapy and her triglycerides exceeded 250 mg/dL on fibrates, we presented her case to her insurance company. She was approved for Metreleptin therapy even though she does not meet the consensus definition of generalized lipodystrophy. Conclusion: We present a unique case with lipodystrophy who had progressive fat loss from partial to generalized. Making the correct classification is important in the US where treatment with Metreleptin is approved only for generalized lipodystrophy. We also highlight a complex genotype-phenotype association of laminopathy that challenges the distinction between FPLD and CGL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on dialysis were excluded from clinical trials of direct oral anticoagulants for atrial fibrillation (AF). Recent data have raised concerns regarding the safety of dabigatran and rivaroxaban, but apixaban has not been evaluated despite current labeling supporting its use in this population. The goal of this study was to determine patterns of apixaban use and its associated outcomes in dialysis-dependent patients with ESKD and AF. METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of Medicare beneficiaries included in the United States Renal Data System (October 2010 to December 2015). Eligible patients were those with ESKD and AF undergoing dialysis who initiated treatment with an oral anticoagulant. Because of the small number of dabigatran and rivaroxaban users, outcomes were only assessed in patients treated with apixaban or warfarin. Apixaban and warfarin patients were matched (1:3) based on prognostic score. Differences between groups in survival free of stroke or systemic embolism, major bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding, intracranial bleeding, and death were assessed using Kaplan-Meier analyses. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were derived from Cox regression analyses. RESULTS The study population consisted of 25 523 patients (45.7% women; 68.2±11.9 years of age), including 2351 patients on apixaban and 23 172 patients on warfarin. An annual increase in apixaban prescriptions was observed after its marketing approval at the end of 2012, such that 26.6% of new anticoagulant prescriptions in 2015 were for apixaban. In matched cohorts, there was no difference in the risks of stroke/systemic embolism between apixaban and warfarin (HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.69-1.12; P=0.29), but apixaban was associated with a significantly lower risk of major bleeding (HR, 0.72; 95% CI, 0.59-0.87; P<0.001). In sensitivity analyses, standard-dose apixaban (5 mg twice a day; n=1034) was associated with significantly lower risks of stroke/systemic embolism and death as compared with either reduced-dose apixaban (2.5 mg twice a day; n=1317; HR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.37-0.98; P=0.04 for stroke/systemic embolism; HR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.45-0.92; P=0.01 for death) or warfarin (HR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.42-0.97; P=0.04 for stroke/systemic embolism; HR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.46-0.85; P=0.003 for death). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with ESKD and AF on dialysis, apixaban use may be associated with a lower risk of major bleeding compared with warfarin, with a standard 5 mg twice a day dose also associated with reductions in thromboembolic and mortality risk.

Abstract
Restriction endonuclease EcoRI cleaves the DNA sequence 5'd(-G-A-A-T-T-C-) under optimum digestion conditions. A variation in pH and ionic strength can result in EcoRI activity when 5'd(-A-A-T-T-) is cut. A divalent cation, usually Mg2+, is required for enzyme activity, though Mn2+ can also be used. Eight different cations with ionic radius/charge ratios similar to Mg2+ were tested and Co2+ and Zn2+ were also found to act as cofactors for EcoRI. A comprehensive study has been made of the effect of NaCl and pH on the EcoRI/EcoRI transition in the presence of the above four cations. Generally, a decrease in NaCl and/or an increase in pH caused a decrease in enzyme specificity. The changeover depended on the cation. They may be placed in order of their ability to increase EcoRI specificity thus: Co2+ greater than Zn2+ greater than Mg2+ greater than Mn2+. The Km of EcoRI for ColE1 DNA, in the presence of Co2+, was found to be 0.4 nM, compared to 3 nM with Mg2+, whereas the turnover was only one double-stranded scission/min with Co2+ compared to eight/min with Mg2+. The implications of all these findings on the enzyme's mechanism are discussed.
