Background: Brugada syndrome is a potential cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD) and is characterized by a distinct ECG, but not all patients with A Brugada ECG develop SCD. In this study we sought to examine if an artificial intelligence (AI) model can predict a previous or future ventricular fibrillation (VF) episode from a Brugada ECG.Methods and Results: We developed an AI-enabled algorithm using a convolutional neural network. From 157 patients with suspected Brugada syndrome, 2,053 ECGs were obtained, and the dataset was divided into 5 datasets for cross-validation. In the ECG-based evaluation, the precision, recall, and F1score were 0.79±0.09, 0.73±0.09, and 0.75±0.09, respectively. The average area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was 0.81±0.09. On per-patient evaluation, the AUROC was 0.80±0.07. This model predicted the presence of VF with a precision of 0.93±0.02, recall of 0.77±0.14, and F1score of 0.81±0.11. The negative predictive value was 0.94±0.11 while its positive predictive value was 0.44±0.29.Conclusions: This proof-of-concept study showed that an AI-enabled algorithm can predict the presence of VF with a substantial performance. It implies that the AI model may detect a subtle ECG change that is undetectable by humans.

Background: Robot-assisted valve surgery represents the latest development in the field of minimally invasive approaches. Robotic assistance may provide greater visualization, enhanced dexterity, and greater precision than traditional mini-thoracotomy aortic valve replacement.Methods and Results: Aortic valve replacement operations using the da Vinci Xi Surgical System (Intuitive Surgical Inc., Sunnyvale, CA, USA) were performed on 2 patients, 1 with severe aortic insufficiency and the other with aortic stenosis. Both patients had an uneventful postoperative course and were discharged without any adverse events.Conclusions: Robot-assisted assisted aortic valve replacement appears feasible and safe in limited cases.

Background: Recently, the function of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), rather than the HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) level, has been attracting more attention in risk prediction for coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods and Results: Patients with clinically diagnosed familial hypercholesterolemia (FH; n=108; male/female, 51/57) were assessed cross-sectionally. Serum cholesterol uptake capacity (CUC) levels were determined using our original cell-free assay. Linear regression was used to determine associations between CUC and clinical variables, including low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and the carotid plaque score. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to test factors associated with the presence of CAD. Among the 108 FH patients, 30 had CAD. CUC levels were significantly lower among patients with than without CAD (median [interquartile range] 119 [92–139] vs. 142 [121–165] arbitrary units [AU]; P=0.0004). In addition, CUC was significantly lower in patients with Achilles tendon thickness ≥9.0 mm than in those without Achilles tendon thickening (133 [110–157] vs. 142 [123–174] AU; P=0.047). Serum CUC levels were negatively correlated with the carotid plaque score (Spearman’s r=0.37; P=0.00018). Serum CUC levels were significantly associated with CAD, after adjusting for other clinical variables (odds ratio=0.86, 95% CI=0.76–0.96, P=0.033), whereas HDL-C was not.Conclusions: HDL function, assessed by serum CUC level, rather than HDL-C level, adds risk stratification information among FH patients.

Background: The comparative tolerability, efficacy, and safety of bisoprolol and carvedilol have not been established in Japanese patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Methods and Results: The CIBIS-J trial is a multicenter, open-label, non-inferiority randomized controlled trial of bisoprolol vs. carvedilol in 217 patients with HFrEF (EF ≤40%). The primary endpoint was tolerability, defined as reaching and maintaining the maximum maintenance dose (bisoprolol 5 mg/day or carvedilol 20 mg/day) during 48 weeks of treatment. The primary endpoint was achieved in 41.4% of patients in bisoprolol (n=111) and 42.5% in carvedilol (n=106) groups. The non-inferiority of tolerability of bisoprolol compared with carvedilol was not supported, however, neither β-blocker was superior with regard to tolerability. Heart rate (HR) decreased in both groups and its decrease from baseline was significantly greater in the bisoprolol group (20.3 vs. 15.4 beats/min at 24 week, P<0.05). Plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels decreased in both groups and the decrease was significantly greater in the carvedilol group (12.4 vs. 39.0 % at 24 weeks, P<0.05). Conclusions: There were no significant differences between bisoprolol and carvedilol in the tolerability of target doses in Japanese HFrEF patients. The clinical efficacy and safety were also similar despite the greater reduction in HR by bisoprolol and plasma BNP by carvedilol.

Background:The coronary adventitia has recently attracted attention as a source of inflammation because it harbors nutrient blood vessels, termed the vasa vasorum (VV). This study assessed the link between local inflammation in adjacent epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and coronary arterial atherosclerosis in fresh cadavers.Methods and Results:Lesion characteristics in the left anterior descending coronary artery of 10 fresh cadaveric hearts were evaluated using integrated backscatter intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS), and the density of the VV and levels of inflammatory molecules from the adjacent EAT were measured for each of the assessed lesions. The lesions were divided into lipid-rich, lipid-moderate, and lipid-poor groups according to percentage lipid volume assessed by IB-IVUS. Higher expression of inflammatory molecules (i.e., vascular endothelial growth factor A [VEGFA] andVEGFB) was observed in adjacent EAT of lipid-rich (n=11) than in lipid-poor (n=11) lesions (7.99±3.37 vs. 0.45±0.85 arbitrary units [AU], respectively, forVEGFA; 0.27±0.15 vs. 0.11±0.07 AU, respectively, forVEGFB; P<0.05). The density of adventitial VV was greater in lipid-rich than lipid-poor lesions (1.50±0.58% vs. 0.88±0.23%; P<0.05).Conclusions:Lipid-rich coronary plaques are associated with adventitial VV and local inflammation in adjacent EAT in fresh cadavers. This study suggests that local inflammation of EAT is associated with coronary plaque progression via the VV.

Background: We aimed to validate a claims-based diagnostic algorithm to identify hospitalized patients with acute major cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) from health insurance claims in Japan.Methods and Results: This retrospective multicenter validation study was conducted at 4 institutes, including Japanese Circulation Society-certified and uncertified hospitals in Japan. Data on patients with CVDs in departmental lists or with International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) codes for CVDs hospitalized between April 2018 and March 2019 were extracted. We examined the sensitivity and positive predictive value of a diagnostic algorithm using ICD-10 codes, medical examinations, and treatments for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), acute heart failure (HF), and acute aortic disease (AAD). We identified 409 patients with ACS (mean age 70.6 years; 24.7% female), 615 patients with acute HF (mean age 77.3 years; 46.2% female), and 122 patients with AAD (mean age 73.4 years; 36.1% female). The respective sensitivity and positive predictive value for the algorithm were 0.86 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.82–0.89) and 0.95 (95% CI 0.92–0.97) for ACS; 0.74 (95% CI 0.70–0.77) and 0.79 (95% CI 0.76–0.83) for acute HF; and 0.86 (95% CI 0.79–0.92) and 0.83 (95% CI 0.76–0.89) for AAD.Conclusions: The validity of the diagnostic algorithm for Japanese claims data was acceptable. Our results serve as a foundation for future studies on CVDs using nationwide administrative data.

Background: Patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE) often have negative T waves (Neg T) in precordial leads at presentation, but this is also found in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) caused by left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) disease. Methods and Results: Differences in Neg T on admission electrocardiograms were studied between 107 patients with APE and 248 patients with ACS caused by LAD disease. All patients had Neg T in leads V1–4 and were admitted within 7 days from symptom onset. The number of leads with Neg T (4.8±1.8 vs. 5.5±1.7, P<0.001) and maximum magnitude of Neg T (3.4±2.0 vs. 4.7±3.3mm, P<0.001) were lower in APE. The frequency of occurrence of Neg T in each of the 12 leads, and the precordial lead with the greatest Neg T (peak Neg T) differed between APE and ACS (all P<0.05, respectively). APE was strongly associated with the presence of Neg T in both leads III and V1 and peak Neg T in leads V1–2. The combination of these 2 findings identified APE with 98% sensitivity, 92% specificity, and 94% predictive accuracy, which represented the highest diagnostic accuracy. Conclusions: Among patients with APE and ACS who have precordial Neg T, the presence of Neg T in leads III and V1 and/or peak Neg T in leads V1–2 simply but accurately differentiates APE from ACS.  (Circ J 2014; 78: 483–489)

Background:As mitral valve (MV) repair for Barlow’s disease remains surgically challenging, it is important to distinguish Barlow’s disease from fibroelastic deficiency (FED) preoperatively. We hypothesized that the prolapse volume to prolapse height ratio (PV-PH ratio) may be useful to differentiate Barlow’s disease and FED.Methods and Results:In 76 patients with MV prolapse who underwent presurgical transesophageal echocardiography, the 3D MV morphology was quantified: 19 patients were diagnosed with Barlow’s disease and 57 with FED. The patients with Barlow’s disease had greater prolapse volume and height than the patients with FED, as well as greater PV-PH ratio (0.61±0.35 vs. 0.17±0.10, P<0.001). Receiver-operating characteristic analysis revealed that with a cutoff value of 0.27, the PV-PH ratio differentiated Barlow’s disease from FED with 84.2% sensitivity and 84.2% specificity. Net reclassification improvement showed that the differentiating ability of the PV-PH ratio was significantly superior to prolapse volume (1.30, P<0.001). After being adjusted by each of prolapse volume and height, annular area and shape, and the number of prolapsed segments, the PV-PH ratio had an independent association with Barlow’s disease.Conclusions:The PV-PH ratio was able to differentiate Barlow’s disease from FED with high accuracy. 3D quantification including this value should be performed before MV repair.

Background: Three-dimensional aortic root evaluation using virtual reality (VR) techniques for valve-sparing aortic root replacement (VSARR) preparation has not yet been implemented, so we demonstrated VR computed tomography (VR-CT) and assessed its utility for VSARR.Methods and Results: We enrolled 72 patients who underwent multidetector CT before elective VSARR for annuloaortic ectasia with tricuspid aortic valve. The geometries of their aortic roots were measured with a VR-CT workstation. The mean values of geometric height (GH), free margin length (FML), and commissural height (CH) were 17.2±2.4 mm, 36.0±5.2 mm, and 24.0±4.3 mm, respectively. The right coronary/noncoronary CH was significantly greater than the left coronary/right coronary and left coronary/noncoronary CH. The left coronary cusp had the shortest FML, intercommissural distances (ICD), and smallest central angle. Although the right coronary cusp had the largest values for FML, ICD, and central angle, the right coronary cusp had the lowest GH and EH. The VR-CT measurements strongly correlated with intraoperative alternatives, especially with mean GH (R2=0.75) and left coronary/noncoronary CH (R2=0.79). Furthermore, mean GH was observed to be significantly different among the selected graft size groups; therefore, the preoperative mean GH could play a significant role in graft sizing.Conclusions: VR-CT evaluation allows a thorough understanding of aortic root anatomy, which could facilitate VSAAR.

Background: The effect of delayed ambulation on the outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains to be clarified.Methods and Results: The long-term and in-hospital outcomes of 887 patients who underwent isolated CABG (455 off-pump cases, 135 urgent cases) were evaluated, with a focus on the timing of first ambulation. In-hospital mortality cases were excluded. Early ambulation (first ambulation within 3 days after operation) was achieved in 339 (38%) patients. In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, longer operation time and urgent case, EuroSCORE II, re-thoracotomy, and respiratory time were associated with delayed (≥4 days) ambulation. Delayed ambulation was associated with a high incidence of postoperative complications, such as pneumonia, and stroke (P<0.01). Following discharge, 22.2% of patients experienced major cardiac events and 13.8% died during the follow-up period (median follow-up 60 months). Cox hazards analysis revealed that delayed ambulation was associated with long-term adverse events (hazard ratio 1.04 per day, P<0.001). With adjustment for preoperative factors, the estimated future risk of adverse events was found to be increased day-by-day during the delay until initial ambulation.Conclusions: In isolated CABG patients, delayed ambulation was associated with poor outcomes, even in the long-term period. The results support the current guideline recommending early ambulation protocol after cardiac surgery.

The first percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed in September 1977, and after 1980 this minimally invasive treatment was established in Japan. To deliver this treatment to a larger population, a number of cardiovascular clinics emerged across the country in the 2000s, and the number of PCI cases performed has been steadily increasing, to >250,000 cases per year. In the early 2000s, a single catheterization unit was profitable, if it performed a certain number of treatments and was adequately staffed without excessive capital investment. In the late 1990s, the price of a balloon catheter medical device used for PCI was approximately JPY300,000, although the price was reduced to JPY32,000, almost one-tenth in price, in the April 2022 revision of the National Health Insurance. The reimbursement of the mainstream drug-eluting stent has also decreased from JPY421,000, when it was first introduced, to JPY136,000 currently. In addition, the consumption tax and reforms in working hours will have a major impact on clinic management. We present a history of cardiovascular clinics in Japan and their present and future positions under the variable external environment.

Vaccines are well-known therapies for infectious disease and cancer; however, recently, we and others have developed vaccines for other chronic diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes and dyslipidemia. Although we have many treatment options for hypertension, including angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers, calcium-channel blockers, and diuretics, a substantial portion of the hypertensive population has uncontrolled blood pressure due to poor medication adherence. When these vaccines are established in the future as therapeutic options for chronic diseases, their administration regimen, such as several times per year, will replace daily medication use. Thus, therapeutic vaccines might be a novel option to control the progression of cardiovascular diseases. Importantly, regarding the development of vaccines against self-antigens (i.e., angiotensin II), the vaccine should efficiently induce a blocking antibody response against the self-antigen without provoking cytotoxic T cells. Therefore, to address the safety and efficiency of therapeutic vaccines, we have developed an original B-cell vaccine to induce antibody production and used carrier proteins, which include exogenous T-cell epitopes through the major histocompatibility complex. In this review, we will introduce the challenges in developing therapeutic vaccines for chronic diseases and describe the therapeutic potential for cardiovascular diseases.

Background: Dialysis patients have strong intracoronary calcification, accelerated by secondary hyperparathyroidism as well as atherosclerosis. We evaluated the association of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) level with intracoronary calcification evaluated by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and its impact on both stent expansion after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and long-term clinical outcomes, in dialysis patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods and Results: A total of 116 patients on dialysis, who underwent PCI with IVUS guidance between March 2012 and December 2020, were enrolled. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on their median iPTH level. The degree of intracoronary calcification was evaluated by calcification score using grayscale IVUS in the target lesions. Preprocedural calcification scores were significantly higher in the high iPTH group compared with the low iPTH group (2.9±1.1 vs. 2.1±0.7, P<0.001). After PCI, the high iPTH group had a significantly lower stent expansion index (0.6±0.2 vs. 0.7±0.1, P<0.001) and stent symmetry index (0.5±0.1 vs. 0.7±0.1, P<0.001) compared with the low iPTH group. The incidence of major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events within 3 years was significantly higher in the high iPTH group (log-rank P<0.05).Conclusions: High iPTH level is likely to increase intracoronary calcification, and cause inadequate stent expansion, which may be associated with increased risk of future adverse events in dialysis patients with CAD requiring PCI.

Background: A polymer-free biolimus A9-coated stent (PF-BCS) may achieve better arterial healing than a durable polymer drug-eluting stent owing to its polymer-free feature.Methods and Results: This multicenter, prospective, observational study enrolled 105 patients (132 lesions) who underwent PF-BCS (51 patients, 71 lesions) or durable polymer everolimus-eluting stent (DP-EES, 54 patients, 61 lesions) implantation. Serial coronary angioscopy (CAS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) examinations were performed at 1 and 12 months, and the serial vessel responses were compared between PF-BCS and DP-EES. The primary outcome measure was the incidence of subclinical intrastent thrombus on CAS. The secondary outcome measures were: adequate strut coverage (≥40 μm) on OCT and maximum yellow color grade on CAS. The incidence of thrombus was high at 1 month (100% vs. 93%, P=0.091), but decreased at 12 months (18% vs. 25%, P=0.56), without a significant difference between PF-BCS and DP-EES. The adequate strut coverage rate was significantly higher (84±14% vs. 69±22%, P<0.001) and yellow color was significantly less intense (P=0.012) at 12 months in PF-BCS than in DP-EES; however, they were not significantly different at 1 month (adequate strut coverage: 47±21% vs. 50±17%, P=0.40; yellow color: P=0.99).Conclusions: Although the thrombogenicity of PF-BCS was similar to that of DP-EES, the adequate coverage and plaque stabilization rates of PF-BCS were superior to those of DP-EES at 12 months.

Background:Minute ventilation/carbon dioxide production (V̇E/V̇CO2) is a variable of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET), which is evaluated by arterial CO2pressure and ventilation-perfusion mismatch via invasive methods. This study evaluated substitute non-invasively obtained variables for minimum V̇E/V̇CO2(Min) and V̇E vs. V̇CO2slope (Slope) and the relationship between Min and Slope.Methods and Results:This study enrolled 1,052 patients with heart disease who underwent CPET and impedance cardiography simultaneously. At first, the correlations between the end-tidal CO2pressure (PETCO2), tidal volume/respiratory rate (TV/RR) ratio, V̇E and V̇CO2Y-intercept (Y-int), and cardiac index (CI) and the Min and Slope were investigated. Second, the correlation between Min and Slope was investigated. PETCO2showed the largest correlation value among the 4 variables. These 4 variables could reveal 84.2% and 81.9% of Min and Slope, respectively. Although Slope correlated with Min (R=0.868) and predicted 78.9% of Min, considering these 4 variables, Slope+Y-int was more strongly correlated with Min (R=0.940); the Slope+Y-int revealed 90.6% of the Min relationship in the multiple regression analysis.Conclusions:Over 80% of the Min and Slope values were revealed with the above-mentioned 4 variables collected non-invasively. The formula, Min∝Slope+Y-int, can reveal >90% of the Min/Slope relationships, and the Y-int may be a crucial factor to clarify the relationship between Min and Slope.
