Abstract
BACKGROUND The frequency of heart failure (HF) in Tunisia is on the rise and has now become a public health concern. This is mainly due to an aging Tunisian population (Tunisia has one of the oldest populations in Africa as well as the highest life expectancy in the continent) and an increase in coronary artery disease and hypertension. However, no extensive data are available on demographic characteristics, prognosis, and quality of care of patients with HF in Tunisia (nor in North Africa). OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze, follow, and evaluate patients with HF in a large nation-wide multicenter trial. METHODS A total of 1700 patients with HF diagnosed by the investigator will be included in the National Tunisian Registry of Heart Failure study (NATURE-HF). Patients must visit the cardiology clinic 1, 3, and 12 months after study inclusion. This follow-up is provided by the investigator. All data are collected via the DACIMA Clinical Suite web interface. RESULTS At the end of the study, we will note the occurrence of cardiovascular death (sudden death, coronary artery disease, refractory HF, stroke), death from any cause (cardiovascular and noncardiovascular), and the occurrence of a rehospitalization episode for an HF relapse during the follow-up period. Based on these data, we will evaluate the demographic characteristics of the study patients, the characteristics of pathological antecedents, and symptomatic and clinical features of HF. In addition, we will report the paraclinical examination findings such as the laboratory standard parameters and brain natriuretic peptides, electrocardiogram or 24-hour Holter monitoring, echocardiography, and coronarography. We will also provide a description of the therapeutic environment and therapeutic changes that occur during the 1-year follow-up of patients, adverse events following medical treatment and intervention during the 3- and 12-month follow-up, the evaluation of left ventricular ejection fraction during the 3- and 12-month follow-up, the overall rate of rehospitalization over the 1-year follow-up for an HF relapse, and the rate of rehospitalization during the first 3 months after inclusion into the study. CONCLUSIONS The NATURE-HF study will fill a significant gap in the dynamic landscape of HF care and research. It will provide unique and necessary data on the management and outcomes of patients with HF. This study will yield the largest contemporary longitudinal cohort of patients with HF in Tunisia.

Abstract
The NATURE-HF registry was aimed to describe clinical epidemiology and 1-year outcomes of outpatients and inpatients with heart failure (HF). This is a prospective, multicenter, observational survey conducted in Tunisian Cardiology centers. A total of 2040 patients were included in the study. Of these, 1632 (80%) were outpatients with chronic HF (CHF). The mean hospital stay was 8.7 ± 8.2 days. The mortality rate during the initial hospitalization event for AHF was 7.4%. The all-cause 1-year mortality rate was 22.8% among AHF patients and 10.6% among CHF patients. Among CHF patients, the older age, diabetes, anemia, reduced EF, ischemic etiology, residual congestion and the absence of ACEI/ ARBs treatment were independent predictors of 1-year cumulative rates of rehospitalization and mortality. The female sex and the functional status were independent predictors of 1-year all-cause mortality and rehospitalization in AHF patients. This study confirmed that acute HF is still associated with a poor prognosis, while the mid-term outcomes in patients with chronic HF seems to be improved. Some differences across countries may be due to different clinical characteristics and differences in healthcare systems.

Abstract
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important health problem in Tunisia. A significant change in the epidemiological pattern of heart disease has been seen in the last 3 decades; however, no large prospective multicenter trial reflecting national data has been published so far. Robust data on the contemporary epidemiological profile and management of AF patients in Tunisia are limited. Objective The aim of this study is to analyze, follow, and evaluate patients with AF in a large multicenter nationwide trial. Methods A total of 1800 consecutive patients with AF by electrocardiogram, reflecting all populations of all geographical regions of Tunisia, will be included in the study, with the objective of describing the epidemiological pattern of AF. Patients will be officially enrolled in the National Tunisian Registry of Atrial Fibrillation (NATURE-AF) only if an electrocardiogram diagnosis (12-lead, 24-hour Holter, or other electrocardiographic documentation) confirming AF is made. The qualifying episode of AF should have occurred within the last year, and patients do not need to be in AF at the time of enrollment. Patients will be followed for 1 year. Incidence of stroke or transient ischemic attack, thromboembolic events, and cardiovascular death will be recorded as the primary end point, and hemorrhagic accidents, measurement of international normalized ratio, and time in therapeutic range will be recorded as secondary end points. Results Results will be available at the end of the study; the demographic profile and general risk profile of Tunisian AF patients, frequency of anticoagulation, frequency of effective treatment, and risks of thromboembolism and bleeding will be evaluated according to the current guidelines. Major adverse events will be determined. NATURE-AF will be the largest registry for North African AF patients. Conclusions This study would add data and provide a valuable opportunity for real-world clinical epidemiology in North African AF patients with insights into the uptake of contemporary AF management in this developing region.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the chief causes of death in the world. Several
hypotheses have been promoted as for the origin of the disease, among which are genetic
predispositions and/or environmental factors. The aim of this study was to determine the
effect of factor V (FV) gene polymorphisms (Leiden, G1691A [FVL] and HR2 A4070G) and to
analyze their association with traditional risk factors in assessing the risk of CAD. Our
study population included 200 Tunisian patients with symptomatic CAD and a control group
of 300 participants matched for age and sex. All participants were genotyped for the FVL
and HR2 polymorphisms. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to analyze independent
factors associated with the risk of CAD. Our analysis showed that the FVL A allele
frequency (P < 10–3, odds ratio [OR] = 2.81, 95% confidence
interval [CI] = 1.6-4.9) and GA genotype (P < 10–3, OR =
4.03, 95% CI = 2.1-7.6) are significantly more prevalent among patients with CAD compared
to those controls and may be predisposing to CAD. We further found that the FVL mutation
is an independent risk factor whose effect is not modified by other factors (smoking,
diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and a family history of CAD) in increasing the risk
of the disease. However, analysis of FV HR2 variation does not show any statistically
significant association with CAD. The FVL polymorphism may be an independent risk factor
for CAD. However, further investigations on these polymorphisms and their possible
synergisms with traditional risk factors for CAD could help to ascertain better
predictability for CAD susceptibility.

Abstract
The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) provides recommendations to improve the editorial standards and scientific quality of biomedical journals. These recommendations range from uniform technical requirements to more complex and elusive editorial issues including ethical aspects of the scientific process. Recently, registration of clinical trials, conflicts of interest disclosure, and new criteria for authorship -emphasizing the importance of responsibility and accountability-, have been proposed. Last year, a new editorial initiative to foster sharing of clinical trial data was launched. This review discusses this novel initiative with the aim of increasing awareness among readers, investigators, authors and editors belonging to the Editors´ Network of the European Society of Cardiology.

Abstract
The International Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) provides recommendations to improve the editorial standards and scientific quality of biomedical journals. These recommendations range from uniform technical requirements to more complex and elusive editorial issues including ethical aspects of the scientific process. Recently, registration of clinical trials, conflicts of interest disclosure, and new criteria for authorship - emphasizing the importance of responsibility and accountability -, have been proposed. Last year, a new editorial initiative to foster sharing of clinical trial data was launched. This review discusses this novel initiative with the aim of increasing awareness among readers, investigators, authors and editors belonging to the Editors' Network of the European Society of Cardiology.

Abstract
Caseous calcification of the mitral annulus (CCMA) is a rare echocardiographic finding. It is commonly misdiagnosed as an abscess, tumor or infective vegetation on the mitral valve. Since it is a benign process, differentiating it from malignant intra-cardiac mass is primordial to avoid unnecessary surgery. Various imaging modalities can be complimentary for definitive diagnosis. We present a case of CCMA in a 71-year-old female patient. Her medical history revealed hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidaemia and coronary artery disease. She was referred to our department for coronary catheterization because of angina symptoms upon minimal exertion. The lesion was detected during echocardiography and was defined as a mass of heterogeneous content with calcification points, located at the posterior side of the mitral valve annulus. Restricted motion of the posterior leaflet and the mass effect caused only minimal mitral regurgitation. To establish the correct diagnosis, we performed the full spectrum of noninvasive cardiac imaging modalities. Transesophageal echocardiography identified well-organized, composite lesion with regular edges, markedly calcified margins and more echolucent central portion. A computed tomography (CT) was performed, showing a hyperdense mass with hypodense center and a calcified peripheral rim located at the posterior mitral ring. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that the mass was hypointense with respect to the myocardium in the T1 and T2-weighted sequences and only presented late-phase enhancement in the surrounding capsule. Based on the CT and MRI findings, the diagnosis of CCMA was established. The patient was managed conservatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery disease (CAD), also known as atherosclerotic heart disease, is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity throughout the world. The role of insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphisms of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene in the etiology of CAD remains to be more completely clarified. The aim of this study was to determine the role of the ACE I/D polymorphism in patients with CAD and to study the association together with traditional risk factors in assessing the risk of CAD. METHODS Our study population included 145 Tunisian patients with symptomatic CAD and a control group of 300 people matched for age and sex. All participants in the study were genotyped for the ACE I/D polymorphisms obtained by polymerase chain reaction amplification on genomic DNA. RESULTS Our analysis showed that the ACE D allele frequency ( P < 10-3; odds ratio [OR] = 5.2; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.6-7.6) and DD genotype ( P < 10-3; OR = 6.8; 95% CI = 4.4-10) are significantly more prevalent among patients with CAD than in controls and may be predisposing to CAD. We further found that the risk of CAD is greatly potentiated by several concomitant risk factors (smoking, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and a family history of CAD). CONCLUSION The ACE D allele may be predictive in individuals who may be at risk of developing CAD. Further investigations of these polymorphisms and their possible synergisms with traditional risk factors for CAD could help to ascertain better predictability for CAD susceptibility.

Abstract
Background - Acute coronary syndrome with high level of troponin is a common pattern for emergency consultation. In 10% of cases, coronary angiography concluded that there were no significant coronary lesions. The contribution of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the etiological investigation is increasing in these conditions. Aim - We analyzed the diagnostic value of cardiac MRI in case of acute coronary syndromes with elevated troponin and normal coronary angiography. Methods - It's a retrospective analytical study including 31 patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome with positive troponins and normal coronary angiography. All these patients underwent cardiac MRI. Results - The average age was 44.94 years. Cardiovascular risk factors were present in 38.70%. The average level of troponin was 4.85 ng/ml. Modification in the ST segment was noted in 87.1% of which 51.6% had ST elevated segment. Cardiac MRI was performed in the average of 8 days. MRI has contributed to the diagnosis in 77.4%: a myocardial infarction (MI) with no significant coronary lesions in 38.7% of cases, myocarditis in 29% of cases, Tako-Tsubo syndrome in 6.5% of cases and apical HCM in 3.2% of cases. MRI was normal in 22.6% of cases. Conclusions - The contribution of cardiac MRI is growing in the diagnostic management of patients with chest pain, elevated level of troponin and normal coronary angiography. The differential diagnoses have discriminating characteristics in MRI, allowing their identification with excellent diagnostic accuracy. The two main etiologies are myocardial necrosis and myocarditis.

Abstract
UNLABELLED FAST-MI Tunisian registry was initiated by the Tunisian Society of Cardiology and Cardio-vascular Surgery to assess characteristics, management, and hospital outcomes in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS We prospectively collected data from 203 consecutive patients (mean age 60.3 years, 79.8 % male) with STEMI who were treated in 15 public hospitals (representing 68.2 % of Tunisian public centres treating STEMI patients) during a 3-month period at the end of 2014. The most common risk factor was tobacco (64.9 %), hypertension (38.6 %), diabetes (36.9 %) and dyslipidemia (24.6 %). RESULTS Among these patients, 66 % received reperfusion therapy, 35 % with primary percutaneous coronary interventions (PAMI), 31 % with thrombolysis (28.6 % of them by pre-hospital thrombolysis). The median time from symptom onset to thrombolysis was 185 and 358 min for PAMI, respectively. The in-hospital mortality was 7.0 %. Patients enrolled in interventional centers (n=156) were more likely to receive any reperfusion therapy (19.8 % vs 44.6 %; p<0.001) than at the regional system of care with less thrombolysis (26.9 % vs 44.6 %; p=0.008) and more PAMI (52.8 % vs 8.5 %; p<0.0001). Also the in-hospital mortality was lower (6.4 % vs 9.3 %) but not significant. CONCLUSIONS Preliminary results from FAST-MI in Tunisia show that the pharmaco- invasive strategy should be promoted in non-interventional centers.

Abstract
Mediterranean spotted fever (MSF) due to Rickettsia conorii is the most important tick-borne disease occurring in North Africa. The first description of MSF was made by Conor and Brush in 1910 in Tunisia. Clinical diagnosis relies on the association of fever, rash and inoculation's scar during summertime. Prognosis in MSF is usually good, however malignant forms were described. These forms occur in patients with comorbidities. G6PD deficiency is a classic ground for severe forms of MSF. Myocarditis is an uncommon complication in MSF; only few cases were reported in the literature. We report a new case of myocarditis complicating MSF in a 15-year-old patient with G6PD deficiency. The patient presented with fever and rash, evocative of MSF; he reported chest pain and the electrocardiogram showed ST segment elevation in anterior leads. Troponin level was elevated. Echocardiogram showed left ventricular dysfunction with 40% ejection fraction. Serologic tests confirmed R. conorii recent infection. Antibiotic treatment with vibramycine and rifadine was started. Patient also received classic treatment of myocarditis with left ventricular dysfunction associating CEI, ß-bloquers and diuretics. Evolution was favourable with complete recovery of left ventricular function. Myocarditis is an uncommon but severe complication of MSF. Early diagnosis and treatment allow favorable evolution.

Abstract
Identifying patients who are at high risk of suffering myocardial infarction can be done by determining risk factors or by the adoption of molecular genetic testing for inherited thrombophilia. We report a case of myocardial infarction at a young age. The patient complained of dyspnea (stage III) and a burning pain of severe intensity that radiated to the left retrosternal side, but was not associated with palpitations or diaphoresis. A number of biochemical parameters were normal except for an elevated creatinine phosphokinase (CPK) level. Genetic testing revealed the subject to be heterozygous for both the factor V leiden and MTHFR C677T polymorphisms. The combination of these two mutations may be a high risk factor for myocardial infarction. Genetic screening for inherited thrombophilia in young patients, especially in the presence of a common risk factor, may be useful for primary thrombopro.phylaxis and in asymptomatic relatives of patients.

Abstract
Cannabis is the most widely used illicit drug in the world. It is generally considered to be a drug with low toxicity. Nevertheless, there are several case reports of myocardial infarction following cannabis use in otherwise low-risk individuals. We report the first case of a cannabis user presenting with acute coronary syndrome related to multivessel coronary artery dissection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Age is the most important determinant of outcome for patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death among elderly patients. AIM To determine the epidemiologic particularities, the clinical presentation, and the treatment of Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) in patients over 65 years. METHODS One hundred patients >65 years of age with myocardial infarction were hospitalized in intensive care of cardiologic unit of Military Hospital of Tunis between 2000 and 2008. Clinical characteristics, reperfusion therapy and outcomes of in-hospital period and for one year follow-up were seen for every patient. RESULTS The mean age of our population was 77 years. Sex-ratio was 3/1.Our population was divided into tow groups; patients aged between 65 and 75 years (48 patients) and those aged more than 75 years (52 patients). Only 44 % of our patients had arrived at the hospital within the first 12 hours. STEMI was found in 65 % of our patients. At admission, 40 % had congestive heart failure (³ Killip II), 10 % were in cardiogenic shock. Urgent reperfusion therapy was given to 58 % of our patients; 33% received a thrombolytic therapy and 25 % were allocated to primary PCI. During in-hospital period, 40 % have developed congestive heart failure, 20 % have had a cardiogenic shock and 12 % were died. All these events were more frequent in patients aged over 75 years and reperfusion therapy was associated with best outcome. CONCLUSION In our study invasive treatment such as fibrinolysis and PCI was associated to better outcome in acute period and at 12 months of follow up in elderly patients treated for AMI.

Abstract
Disclosure of potential conflicts of interest is used by biomedical journals to guarantee credibility and transparency of the scientific process. Conflict of interest disclosure, however, is not systematically nor consistently dealt with by journals. Recent joint editorial efforts paved the way towards the implementation of uniform vehicles for conflicts of interest disclosure. This paper provides a comprehensive editorial perspective on classical conflict of interest-related issues. New insights into current conflicts of interest policies and practices among European Society of Cardiology national cardiovascular journals, as derived from a cross-sectional survey using a standardized questionnaire, are discussed.
