Background: The Impella®percutaneous left ventricular assist device has been available in Japan since 2017. This is the first large-scale registry study to analyze the efficacy and safety of Impella in Japanese patients with acute myocardial infarction with cardiogenic shock (AMICS).Methods and Results: The Japanese registry for Percutaneous Ventricular Assist Device (J-PVAD) has registered all consecutive Japanese patients treated with Impella. We extracted data for 593 AMICS patients from J-PVAD and analyzed 30-day survival and safety profiles. Overall 30-day survival was 63.1%. The 30-day survival of the Impella alone and Impella plus venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECPELLA) groups was 80.9% and 45.7%, respectively. The Impella alone group was older and had a lower rate of cardiac arrest, milder consciousness disturbance, less inotrope use, lower serum lactate concentrations, higher B-type natriuretic peptide concentrations, and higher left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) than the ECPELLA group. Cox regression analysis revealed that older age and comorbid renal disturbance were common risk factors affecting 30-day mortality in both groups. Major adverse events were hemolysis (10.8%), hemorrhage/hematoma (7.6%), peripheral ischemia (4.4%), stroke (1.3%), and thrombosis (0.7%). LVEF improved in both groups during support.Conclusions: AMICS treatment with Impella showed favorable 30-day survival and safety profiles. The survival rate of patients treated with Impella alone was particularly high. Further studies are needed to improve outcomes of patients with ECPELLA support.

Background: Recently, destination therapy (DT) was approved in Japan, and patients ineligible for heart transplantation may now receive durable left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). Several conventional risk scores are available, but a risk score that is best to select optimal candidates for DT in the Japanese population remains unestablished.Methods and Results: A total of 1,287 patients who underwent durable LVAD implantation and were listed for the Japanese registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (J-MACS) were eligible for inclusion. Finally, 494 patients were assigned to the derivation cohort and 487 patients were assigned to the validation cohort. According to the time-to-event analyses, J-MACS risk scores were newly constructed to predict 3-year mortality rate, consisting of age, history of cardiac surgery, serum creatinine level, and central venous pressure to pulmonary artery wedge pressure ratio >0.71. The J-MACS risk score had the highest predictability of 3-year death compared with other conventional scores in the validation cohort, including HeartMate II risk score and HeartMate 3 risk score.Conclusions: We constructed the J-MACS risk score to estimate 3-year mortality rate after durable LVAD implantation using large-scale multicenter Japanese data. The clinical utility of this scoring to guide the indication of DT should be validated in the next study.

Hypervolemic hyponatremia is often complicated with advanced heart failure together with increased excretion of sodium by diuretics. Tolvaptan, an oral vasopressin-2-receptor antagonist, has been previously reported to improve congestion and correct hyponatremia through increased excretion of free water. However, there is little evidence concerning the administration of tolvaptan in patients with stage D heart failure. We experienced 2 patients with stage D heart failure who received 3.75 mg/day of tolvaptan to correct hyponatremia before ventricular assist device implantation. It may be useful, even for patients with stage D heart failure, to administer a low dose of tolvaptan to treat hyponatremia before ventricular assist device implantation to avoid a drastic alteration in serum sodium concentration perioperatively.

本稿では、京都市上京区東魚屋町で豆腐製造と行商を家業とする入山音治郎という人物の書き残した1938年の「家計日誌」をもとに、日中戦争期の「高揚」のなか、京都市中の一家族がどのような生活をおくっていたかを明らかにした。それは、戦争をただの戦史や国家史の流れのなかでのみ捉えるのでなく、「生きる」、「楽しむ」、「交流する」、「支える」という日常の家族と地域コミュニティの側から見据えることでもある。そこにこそ戦争のリアリティが存在することを銘記したい。
