Background:This study retrospectively evaluated the long-term patient outcomes and durability of the Mosaic mitral porcine bioprosthesis in the Japan Mosaic valve long-term multicenter study.Methods and Results:The medical records of 390 patients who underwent mitral valve replacement with the Mosaic bioprosthesis at 10 centers in Japan (1999–2014) were reviewed. Patient data were collected using the Research Electronic Data Capture software. Patient survival was determined using the Kaplan-Meier method. Freedom from structural valve deterioration (SVD) and valve-related reoperation and death were determined using actuarial methods. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) age of the cohort was 73 (69–77) years. The median (IQR) follow-up period was 4.83 (1.84–8.26) years. The longest follow-up period was 15.8 years. The 30-day mortality rate was 5.4%. The 12-year actuarial survival rate was 54.1±4.5%, and the freedom from valve-related death was 85.3±3.4%. The freedom from reoperation at 12 years was 74.3±5.7%. The freedom from SVD at 12 years was 81.4±6.6% for patients aged ≥65 years and 71.6±11.1% for those aged <65 years. The median (IQR) mean pressure gradient was 4.1 (3.0–6.0) and 5.6 (4.0–6.7) mmHg at 1 and 10 years, respectively. The median (IQR) effective orifice area was 1.7 (1.4–2.0) and 1.4 (1.2–1.6) cm2at 1 and 10 years, respectively.Conclusions:The Mosaic porcine bioprosthesis offered satisfactory long-term outcomes for up to 12 years.

Background:The clinical significance of concomitant mitral regurgitation (MR) has not been well addressed in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS).Methods and Results:We analyzed 3,815 patients from a retrospective multicenter registry of severe AS in Japan (CURRENT AS registry). We compared the clinical outcomes between patients with moderate/severe MR and with none/mild MR according to the initial treatment strategy (initial aortic valve replacement [AVR] or conservative strategy). The primary outcome measure was a composite of aortic valve-related death or heart failure hospitalization. At baseline, moderate/severe MR was present in 227/1,197 (19%) patients with initial AVR strategy and in 536/2,618 (20%) patients with a conservative strategy. The crude cumulative 5-year incidence of the primary outcome measure was significantly higher in patients with moderate/severe MR than in those with none/mild MR, regardless of the initial treatment strategy (25.2% vs. 14.4%, P<0.001 in the initial AVR strategy, and 63.3% vs. 40.7%, P<0.001 in the conservative strategy). After adjusting confounders, moderate/severe MR was not independently associated with higher risk for the primary outcome measure in the initial AVR strategy (hazard ratio [HR] 1.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.67–1.83, P=0.69), and in the conservative strategy (HR 1.13, 95% CI 0.93–1.37, P=0.22).Conclusions:Concomitant moderate/severe MR was not independently associated with higher risk for the primary outcome measure regardless of the initial treatment strategy.

Background:Ascending and abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAs) are asymptomatic, permanent dilations of the aorta with surgical intervention as the currently available therapy. Hippo-Yap signaling cascade plays a critical role in stem cell self-renewal, tissue regeneration and organ size control. By using XMU-MP-1, a pharmacological inhibitor of the key component of Hippo-Yap signaling, MST1/2, we examined the functional contribution of Hippo-Yap in the development of AAs in Angiotensin II (AngII)-infused hypercholesterolemic mice.Methods and Results:MST, p-MST, p-YAP, p-MOB and TAZ proteins in AngII-infused ascending and abdominal aortas were assessed by immunohistochemical and western blot analyses. To examine the effect of MST1/2 inhibition on AAs, western diet-fed low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor −/− mice infused with AngII were administered with either vehicle or XMU-MP-1 for 5 weeks. Hippo-YAP signaling proteins were significantly elevated in AngII infused ascending and abdominal aortas. XMU-MP-1 administration resulted in the attenuation of AngII-induced ascending AAs without influencing abdominal AAs and aortic atherosclerosis. Inhibition of Hippo-YAP signaling also resulted in the suppression of AngII-induced matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) activity, macrophage accumulation, aortic medial hypertrophy and elastin breaks in the ascending aorta.Conclusions:The present study demonstrates a pivotal role for the Hippo-YAP signaling pathway in AngII-induced ascending AA development.

Background: In a previous study, a low level of miR-126-3p in endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) was linked to the outcome of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients. However, it remains unclear whether transplantation with miR-126-3p-overexpressing EPCs (MO-EPCs) can improve the cardiac function of ICM animal models. Methods and Results: miR-126-3p overexpression by lentiviral vector significantly increased migration and tube-like structures of EPCs from ICM patients. MO-EPCs or non-modified EPCs (NM-EPCs) were transplanted into nude rats with ICM induced by coronary artery ligation. MO-EPC transplantation increased capillary density and EPC survival rate in myocardial tissues of nude rats. Cytokines were also assessed by antibody array and real-time RT-PCR. G-CSF, VEGF-A, IL-3, IL-10, IGF-1, angiogenin, HGF, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 were upregulated, and IL-8, MCP-1, MCP-2, TNF-α, TNF-β and MIP-1β were downregulated after miR-126-3p overexpression in EPCs. The same results were obtained in infarction tissues of nude rats after MO-EPC transplantation. Eight weeks after MO-EPC transplantation, left ventricular function improved significantly with clearly decreased infarction size, increased anterior wall thickness, and inhibition of inflammation compared with the results for NM-EPC transplantation. However, MO-EPC transplantation showed no increase in survival time of nude rats with ICM during 8 weeks of observation. Conclusions: miR-126-3p can restore the biology of EPCs from ICM patients. Moreover, MO-EPC transplantation improves cardiac function effectively, representing a promising future treatment for ICM.

Background:Data on outcomes for patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and active cancer are scarce. The effect of active cancer on thrombosis and bleeding risks in elderly (≥75 years) patients with non-valvular AF (NVAF) enrolled in the All Nippon AF In the Elderly (ANAFIE) Registry were prospectively analyzed.Methods and Results:In this subanalysis of the ANAFIE Registry, a prospective, multicenter, observational study conducted in Japan, we compared the incidence rates of clinical outcomes between active cancer and non-cancer groups. Relationships between primary outcomes and anticoagulation status were evaluated. Of the 32,725 patients enrolled in the Registry, 3,569 had active cancer at baseline; 92.0% of active cancer patients received anticoagulants (23.7%, warfarin; 68.2%, direct oral anticoagulants [DOACs]). Two-year probabilities of stroke/systemic embolic events (SEE) were similar in the cancer (3.33%) and non-cancer (3.16%) groups. Patients with cancer had greater incidences of major bleeding (2.86% vs. 2.04%), all-cause death (10.95% vs. 6.77%), and net clinical outcomes (14.63% vs. 10.00%) than those without cancer. In patients without cancer, DOACs were associated with a decreased risk of stroke/SEE, major bleeding, all-cause death, and net clinical outcome compared with warfarin. No between-treatment differences were observed in patients with active cancer.Conclusions:Active cancer had no effect on stroke/SEE incidence in elderly NVAF patients, but those with cancer had higher incidences of major bleeding events and all-cause death than those without cancer.

Background:The geographic distribution of cardiovascular (CV) health-care services has not been assessed systematically.Methods and Results:Data of the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) annual survey were provided to the JCS working group with the permission of the JCS Scientific Committee. The status of CV practice in 2010 was then assessed in 47 prefectures retrospectively, along with national census and gross domestic product (GDP) data. The surveyed indices included resources (hospitals, beds and cardiologists), burden (number of inpatients), and outcome (CV mortality and autopsy) in each prefecture, which correlated well with respective populations or GDP. Inequality of geographic distribution was evident for pediatrics among the 47 prefectures, according to Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient or the maximum/minimum ratio for each index. According to the Gini coefficients, only the number of inpatients (medical or acute myocardial infarction) and beds for the total number of general hospitals or the hospitals surveyed in the present JCS study were lower than expected with regard to GDP.Conclusions:Geographic disparity of CV resources or burden was larger in pediatrics than in CV medicine or surgery. Improvement of equality in CV practice with regard to appropriateness and quality are the coming challenges for the JCS. (Circ J 2015; 79: 1058–1067)

Background:Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is increasingly being performed in very elderly patients, although its efficacy and validity remain unclear. This study evaluated real-world TAVI outcomes in Japanese nonagenarians with severe aortic stenosis.Methods and Results:This single-center study retrospectively assessed the early and long-term clinical outcomes of TAVI in nonagenarians (n=35) and in patients aged <90 years (group Y; n=171). There were no in-hospital deaths in either group. The device success rate and early safety were comparable between the 2 groups. The 5-year rates of freedom from cardiac events and deaths were equivalent in both groups. The cumulative survival rate at 5 years was non-significantly lower in nonagenarians (32.6% in nonagenarians vs. 57.5% in patients aged <90 years, P=0.49). There were no differences in the 5-year survival between nonagenarians after TAVI and the sex- and age-matched populations (P=0.18). The Cox regression model revealed that lower hemoglobin levels were associated with all-cause mortality (P=0.02), and age ≥90 years was not associated with all-cause mortality.Conclusions:The early and long-term clinical outcomes of TAVI for selected Japanese nonagenarians were comparable to those in patients aged <90 years. Nonagenarians who underwent TAVI achieved an acceptable prognosis compared to the sex- and age-matched population; thus, TAVI appears to be effective for treating aortic stenosis in Japanese nonagenarians.

Background:Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is an effective procedure to protect against ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (Hif-1α) is a key molecule in IPC, and roxadustat (RXD), a first-in-class prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing protein inhibitor, has been recently developed to treat anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease. Thus, we investigated whether RXD pretreatment protects against I/R injury.Methods and Results:RXD pretreatment markedly reduced the infarct size and suppressed plasma creatinine kinase activity in a murine I/R model. Analysis of oxygen metabolism showed that RXD could produce ischemic tolerance by shifting metabolism from aerobic to anaerobic respiration.Conclusions:RXD pretreatment may be a novel strategy against I/R injury.

Background: Prompt diagnosis and management of atrial tachyarrhythmias (ATAs) during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is still challenging. Methods and Results: In 88 patients undergoing catheter ablation of AF, 128 regular ATAs were induced or converted from AF. The coronary sinus activation time (CSAT) around the mitral annulus (MA) was measured as the difference in activation time between the most proximal and distal poles of the coronary sinus (CS) electrodes. Entrainment pacing was performed around the MA, roof area, or cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) depending on the CSAT result. Mechanisms of tachycardias included macro-reentry around the MA (perimitral atrial flutter [PM-AFL], n=63), roof-dependent AFL (Roof-AFL, n=14), CTI-dependent AFL (CTI-AFL, n=25), and atrial tachycardia (AT, n=26). When the CSAT was ≥45ms, the MA activation sequence was sequential, either proximal to distal or distal to proximal. When the CSAT was <45ms, the MA activation sequence was mainly non-sequential with converging or diverging patterns. CSAT <45ms was highly sensitive in ruling out PM-AFL from other left ATAs. When combined with PPI data from the MA, roof area or CTI, PM-, Roof-, CTI-AFL and AT was successfully differentiated with a high predictive accuracy. Conclusions: A diagnostic algorithm combining CSAT and entrainment pacing is helpful to assess the mechanism of ATAs during catheter ablation of AF.  (Circ J 2013; 77: 619–625)

Background:The prognosis of cancer survivors has dramatically improved, but effective strategies for cancer treatment-related cardiovascular disorders (CTRCD) remain to be elucidated in the emerging field of cardio-oncology. In this study, we investigated risk factors for CTRCD in breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab.Methods and Results:We performed a retrospective analysis of 141 consecutive women who received adjuvant trastuzumab, and underwent baseline (BL) and follow-up (FU) echocardiography at Juntendo University between April 2010 and December 2016. The major concomitant treatment was anthracyclines in 94% and radiotherapy in 53%. During the median treatment period of 11 months, there were 22 (15.6%) cardiology consultations, 3 (2.1%) treatment interruptions with irreversible CTRCD, and no deaths. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was decreased from a median 67.5% (BL) to 63.4% (FU; P<0.0001), with reduced LVEF noted in 26.2% at FU<90%BL, in 13.5% at FU<BL–10%, and in 5.7% at LVEFFU<53%. A significantly greater percentage of patients with CTRCD (FU<BL–10% and LVEFFU<53%) had cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF; 42.9% vs. 8.2%, P=0.02). On multivariable analysis, CVRF were also significantly associated with CTRCD (OR, 11.96; 95% CI: 1.30–110.34).Conclusions:Adjuvant trastuzumab for early-stage breast cancer was associated with reduced LVEF; and CVRF were an independent predictor for CTRCD. The concomitant effect of anthracyclines should not be underestimated, even at lower doses.

Background:Although bystanders’ performance is important to improve outcomes of patients after cardiac arrests, few studies have investigated the barriers of bystanders, including those who could not perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation or any other rescue actions in emergency situations. This study aimed to assess the relationship between the psychological barriers of laypersons who encountered emergency situations and their rescue actions.Methods and Results:A questionnaire survey was conducted and this included laypersons who had encountered emergency situations during the last 5 years. Six questions were about the psychological barriers and 8 questions were about the laypersons’ rescue actions. The primary outcome was any rescue actions performed by laypersons in an actual emergency situation. Overall, 7,827 (92.8%) of 8,430 laypersons responded; of them, 1,361 (16.1%) had encountered emergency situations during the last 5 years, and 1,220 (14.5%) were eligible for inclusion in the analyses. Of the 6 psychological barriers, “fear of approaching a collapsed person” (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.50; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.32–0.79) and “difficulties in judging whether to perform any rescue action” (AOR 0.63; 95% CI 0.40–0.99) were significantly associated with performing any rescue actions.Conclusions:The fear of approaching a collapsed person and difficulties in judging whether to take any actions were identified as the psychological barriers in performing any rescue actions by laypersons who encountered emergency situations.

Background:Studies comparing the cardiac consequences of hydrophilic and lipophilic statins in experimental and clinical practice settings have produced inconsistent results. In particular, evidence focusing on diabetic patients after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is lacking.Methods and Results:From the Osaka Acute Coronary Insufficiency Study (OACIS) registry database, 1,752 diabetic patients with AMI who were discharged with a prescription for statins were studied. Long-term outcomes were compared between hydrophilic and lipophilic statins, including all-cause death, recurrent myocardial infarction (re-MI) and admission for heart failure (HF) and a composite of these (major adverse cardiac events; MACE). During a median follow-up period of 1,059 days, all-cause death, non-fatal re-MI, admission for HF, and MACE occurred in 95, 89, 112 and 249 patients, respectively. Although there was no significant difference between statins in the risk of all-cause death, re-MI and MACE, the risk of HF admission was significantly lower in patients with hydrophilic than lipophilic statins before (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.560; 95% CI: 0.345–0.911, P=0.019) and after (aHR, 0.584; 95% CI: 0.389–0.876, P=0.009) propensity score matching. Hydrophilic statin use was consistently associated with lower risk for HF admission than lipophilic statins across the subgroup categories.Conclusions:In the present diabetic patients with AMI, hydrophilic statins were associated with a lower risk of admission for HF than lipophilic statins.

Background:Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with low body mass index (BMI) exhibit worse clinical outcomes than obese patients; however, to our knowledge, no prospective, nationwide study has assessed the effect of BMI on the clinical outcomes of AMI patients.Methods and Results:In this multi-center, prospective, nationwide Japanese trial, 2,373 AMI patients who underwent emergent percutaneous coronary intervention within 12 h of onset from the Japanese AMI Registry (JAMIR) were identified. Patients were divided into the following 4 groups based on their BMI at admission: Q1 group (BMI <18.5 kg/m2, n=133), Q2 group (18.5≤BMI<25.0 kg/m2, n=1,424), Q3 group (25.0≤BMI<30.0 kg/m2, n=672), and Q4 group (30.0 kg/m2≤BMI, n=144). The primary endpoint was all-cause death, and the secondary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), and non-fatal stroke. The median follow-up period was 358 days. Q1 patients were older and had lower prevalence of coronary risk factors. Q1 patients also had higher all-cause mortality and higher incidence of secondary endpoints than normal-weight or obese AMI patients. Multivariate analysis showed that low BMI (Q1 group) was an independent predictor for primary endpoint.Conclusions:AMI patients with low BMI had fewer coronary risk factors but worse clinical outcomes than normal-weight or obese patients.

Background:Optical coherence tomographic (OCT) imaging has enabled identification of lipid, with increasing interest in how it may affect coronary interventions and clinical outcomes. This review summarizes the available evidence around OCT identification of lipid and its effect on interventions, clinical events, and the natural history of coronary disease.Methods and Results:We conducted a scoping review using the Medline, HealthStar, and Embase databases for articles published between 1996 and 2021. We screened 1,194 articles and identified 51 for inclusion in this study, summarizing the key findings. The literature supports a common OCT definition of lipid as low-signal regions with diffuse borders, validated against histology and other imaging modalities with acceptable intra- and inter-rater reliability. There is evidence that OCT-identified lipid at the site of stent implantation increases the risk of edge dissection, incomplete stent apposition, in-stent tissue protrusion, decreased coronary flow after stenting, side branch occlusion, and post-procedural cardiac biomarker increases. In mostly retrospective studies, lipid indices measured at non-stented sites are associated with plaque progression and the development of recurrent ischemic events.Conclusions:There is extensive literature supporting the ability of OCT to identify lipid and demonstrating a substantial impact of lipid on percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes. Future work to prospectively evaluate the effect of the characteristics of lipid-rich plaques on long-term clinical outcomes is needed.
