Background: In patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and severe blood stasis in the left atrial appendage (LAA), dense spontaneous echo contrast (SEC) disturbs the distinct visualization of the LAA interior, thus making thrombus diagnosis inconclusive. We aimed to prospectively assess the efficacy and safety of a protocol for a low-dose isoproterenol (ISP) infusion to reduce SEC to exclude an LAA thrombus.Methods and Results: We enrolled 17 patients with AF and dense SEC (Grade 4 or sludge). ISP was infused with gradually increasing doses of 0.01, 0.02, and 0.03 μg/kg/min at 3-min intervals. After increasing the dose to 0.03 μg/kg/min for 3 min, or when the LAA interior was visible, the infusion was terminated. We reassessed the SEC grade, presence of an LAA thrombus, LAA function, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) within 1 min of ISP termination. Compared with baseline, ISP significantly increased LAA flow velocity, the LAA emptying fraction, LAA wall velocities, and LVEF (all P<0.01). ISP administration significantly reduced the SEC grade (median) from 4 to 1 (P<0.001). The SEC grade decreased to ≤2 in 15 (88%) patients, and the LAA thrombus was excluded. There were no adverse events.Conclusions: Low-dose ISP infusion may be effective and safe to reduce SEC and exclude an LAA thrombus by improving LAA function and LVEF.

Background:Although experimental animal studies report many pleiotropic effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i), their prognostic value has not been demonstrated in clinical trials.Methods and Results:Among 838 prospectively enrolled heart failure (HF) patients hospitalized for acute decompensated HF, 79 treated with DPP-4i were compared with 79 propensity score-matched non-DPP-4i diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality; the secondary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular death and hospitalization. During follow-up (423±260 days), 8 patients (10.1%) in the DPP-4i group and 13 (16.5%) in the non-DPP-4i group died (log-rank, P=0.283). The DPP-4i group did not have a significantly higher rate of all-cause mortality (log-rank, P=0.283), or cardiovascular death or hospitalization (log-rank, P=0.425). In a subgroup analysis of HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF; n=75), the DPP-4i group had a significantly better prognosis than the non-DPP-4i group regarding the primary endpoint (log-rank, P=0.021) and a tendency to have better prognosis regarding the secondary endpoint (log-rank, P=0.119). In patients with HF with reduced EF (n=83), DPP-4i did not result in better prognosis.Conclusions:DPP-4i did not increase the risk of adverse clinical outcomes in patients with DM and HF. DPP-4i may be beneficial in HFpEF.
