Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is considered an early sign of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) because amyloid deposition is often confirmed in the tenosynovium removed during carpal tunnel release (CTR); however, the prevalence of concomitant CA is unclear.Methods and Results: We prospectively examined 700 patients who underwent CTR and evaluated amyloid deposition after tenosynovium removal. Amyloid deposition was observed in 261 (37%) patients, who were significantly older and predominantly male (P<0.05). Of them, 120 agreed to cardiac screening. We performed 99 mTc-labeled pyrophosphate (99 mTc-PYP) scintigraphy in 12 patients who met either of the following criteria: (1) interventricular septal diameter (IVSd) ≥14 mm or (2) 12 mm ≤ IVSd < 14 mm with above-normal limits in high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT). Six patients (50%) had positive findings on 99 mTc-PYP scintigraphy and were diagnosed with wild-type transthyretin CA. Concomitant CA was observed in 6/120 (5%) CTR patients with amyloid deposition and 50% (6/12) in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (≥12 mm) with increased hs-cTnT levels.Conclusions: Amyloid deposition was frequently observed in the removed tenosynovium of elderly men with CTS. Cardiac screening may be useful for early diagnosis of CA in patients undergoing CTR with amyloid deposition.

Background:A recent study revealed a high prevalence of transthyretin (TTR) cardiac amyloidosis (CA) in elderly patients. 99 mTc-labeled pyrophosphate (99 mTc-PYP) scintigraphy is a remarkably sensitive and specific modality for TTR-CA, but is only available in specialist centres; thus, it is important to raise the pretest probability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of patients with 99 mTc-PYP positivity and make recommendations about patient selection for 99 mTc-PYP scintigraphy.Methods and Results:We examined 181 consecutive patients aged ≥70 years who underwent 99 mTc-PYP scintigraphy at Kumamoto University Hospital between January 2012 and December 2018. Logistic regression analyses showed that high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) ≥0.0308 ng/mL, left ventricular posterior wall thickness ≥13.6 mm, and wide QRS (QRS ≥120 ms) were strongly associated with 99 mTc-PYP positivity. We developed a new index for predicting 99 mTc-PYP positivity by adding 1 point for each of the 3 factors. The 99 mTc-PYP positive rate increased by a factor of 4.57 for each 1-point increase (P<0.001). Zero points corresponded to a negative predictive value of 87% and 3 points corresponded to a positive predictive value of 96% for 99 mTc-PYP positivity.Conclusions:The combination of biochemical (hs-cTnT), physiological (wide QRS), and structural (left ventricular posterior wall thickness) findings can raise the pretest probability for 99 mTc-PYP scintigraphy. It can assist clinicians in determining management strategies for elderly patients with suspected CA.

Background: The accurate sensitivity of amyloid deposition in extracardiac tissue (subcutaneous tissue and gastrointestinal tract) has not been evaluated in transthyretin amyloidosis cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) patients. This study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of amyloid deposition in obtained endomyocardial and extracardiac biopsies.Methods and Results: This study retrospectively evaluated 175 consecutive ATTR-CM patients (wild-type [ATTRwt]: 134, hereditary [ATTRv]: 41) who had positive findings on 99 mTc-labeled pyrophosphate (99 mTc-PYP) scintigraphy and underwent tissue biopsy of at least one organ (subcutaneous tissue, gastrointestinal tract, and endomyocardium). Amyloid deposition was observed in the subcutaneous tissue of 57/150 patients (38%), gastrointestinal tract of 80/131 patients (61%), and endomyocardium of 108/109 patients (99%). Compared to patients with ATTRv, ATTRwt had significantly lower sensitivity in subcutaneous tissue (73% vs. 25%, P<0.01) and tended to be lower in the gastrointestinal tract (74% vs. 57%, P=0.08) biopsies. Among 124 patients who underwent both subcutaneous tissue and gastrointestinal tract biopsies, amyloid was detected in at least 1 specimen in 91 (73%) patients. The sensitivity of the combination of extracardiac biopsies was 66% and 94% in ATTRwt-CM and ATTRv-CM, respectively. Multivariate analysis reveals that ATTRv was the only significant predictor of amyloid deposition in the subcutaneous tissue.Conclusions: Subcutaneous tissue and gastrointestinal tract biopsy sensitivity are inadequate, especially in patients with ATTRwt; however, the combination of these extracardiac biopsies contributes to increased sensitivity in patients with positive 99 mTc-PYP scintigraphy findings.

Background: Subclinical leaflet thrombosis occasionally occurs after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), but its exact etiology and relationship with thrombogenicity remain unknown.Methods and Results: This study enrolled 35 patients who underwent TAVI. Thrombogenicity was evaluated using a total thrombus-formation analysis system (T-TAS) to compute the thrombus-formation area under the curve (PL18-AUC10and AR10-AUC30). Periprocedural thrombogenic parameters including T-TAS were investigated at pre-TAVI, 2 days, 7 days, and 3 months post-TAVI. Hypoattenuated leaflet thickening (HALT) and maximum leaflet thickness (MLT) were evaluated using contrast-enhanced computed tomography 7 days and 3 months post-TAVI. The associations between thrombogenicity and HALT or MLT were assessed. T-TAS parameters consistently decreased at 2 and 7 days post-TAVI, followed by improvement at 3 months. HALT was detected in 20% and 17% of patients at 7 days and 3 months, respectively, post-TAVI. The median MLT value was 1.60 mm at 7 days and 3 months post-TAVI. A significant positive correlation was observed between the decrease in the AR10-AUC30and MLT at 7 days post-TAVI. Univariate linear regression analysis revealed a decrease in the AR10-AUC30and an increase in the D-dimer level as a significant predictor of MLT deterioration.Conclusions: The findings suggested that a transient decrease in thrombogenicity following TAVI predicts leaflet thrombosis, implying that monitoring thrombogenicity may be useful for predicting progression of leaflet thrombosis.

Aims: Royal jelly, a creamy substance secreted by honeybees, has been reported to have beneficial effects against dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome. However, the effects of royal jelly on atherogenesis remain unknown. Hence, we prospectively evaluated whether royal jelly augments vascular endothelial function, which can reflect early atherogenesis, in healthy volunteers. Methods: This was a single-center, double-blind, 1:1 randomized placebo-controlled study conducted from October 2018 to December 2019. A total of 100 healthy volunteers were randomly assigned to receive either royal jelly 690 mg or placebo daily for 4 weeks. The primary endpoint was augmentation in vascular endothelial function as assessed using the change in the reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonometry index (RH-PAT) index, and the secondary endpoints were the changes in liver function and lipid profiles between baseline and 4 weeks after enrollment. Results: The mean age of the participants was 35.0±9.3 years in the placebo group and 36.1±9.1 years in the royal jelly groups; 45% and 50% of the placebo and the royal jelly groups, respectively, were male. The percentage relative change in the RH-PAT index was significantly higher in the royal jelly group than in the placebo group (21.4%±53.1% vs. 0.05%±40.9%, P=0.037). The percentage relative changes in alanine aminotransferase and γ-glutamyl transpeptidase were significantly lower in the royal jelly group than in the placebo group (alanine aminotransferase: −6.06%±22.2% vs. 11.6%±46.5%, P=0.02; γ-glutamyl transpeptidase: −3.45%±17.8% vs. 4.62%±19.4%, P=0.045). Lipid profiles were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusions: Royal jelly might have antiatherogenic property by improving vascular endothelial function. It also augmented liver functions in healthy volunteers.
