  • 2011
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Heart Failure. - : Wiley. - 1388-9842 .- 1879-0844. ; 13:12, s. 1283-1289

    • AIMS:Next to left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by microvascular dysfunction and reduced myocardial external efficiency (MEE). Insights into the presence of these abnormalities as early markers of disease are of clinical importance in risk stratification, and development of therapeutic approaches. Therefore, the aim was to investigate myocardial perfusion and energetics in genotype-positive, phenotype-negative HCM subjects (carriers).METHODS AND RESULTS:Fifteen carriers of an MYBPC3 mutation underwent [15O]water positron emission tomography (PET) to assess myocardial blood flow (MBF). [11C]acetate PET was performed to obtain myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2). By use of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, LV volumes and mass were defined to calculate MEE, i.e. the ratio between external work and MVO2. Eleven healthy, genotype-negative, family relatives underwent similar scanning protocols to serve as a control group. Left ventricular mass was comparable between carriers and controls (93 ± 25 vs. 99 ± 21 g, P= 0.85), as was MBF at rest (1.19 ± 0.34 vs. 1.18 ± 0.32 mL min−1 g−1, P= 0.92), and during hyperaemia (3.87 ± 0.75 vs. 3.96 ± 0.86 mL min−1 g−1, P= 0.77). Myocardial oxygen consumption averaged 0.137 ± 0.057 mL min−1 g−1 in carriers and was not significantly different from controls (0.125 ± 0.043 mL min−1 g−1, P= 0.29). Cardiac work, however, was slightly reduced in carriers (7398 ± 1384 vs. 9139 ± 2484 mmHg mL in controls, P= 0.08). As a consequence, MEE was significantly decreased in carriers (27 ± 10 vs. 36 ± 8% in controls, P= 0.02).CONCLUSION:Carriers display reduced myocardial work generation in relation to oxygen consumption, in the absence of hypertrophy and flow abnormalities. Hence, impaired myocardial energetics may constitute a primary component of HCM pathogenesis.

  • Effects of alcohol septal ablation on coronary microvascular function and myocardial energetics in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology. - : American Physiological Society. - 0363-6135 .- 1522-1539. ; 301:1, s. H129-H137

    • This study investigated the effects of alcohol septal ablation (ASA) on microcirculatory function and myocardial energetics in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. In 15 HCM patients who underwent ASA, echocardiography was performed before and 6 mo after the procedure to assess the LVOT gradient (LVOTG). Additionally, [15O]water PET was performed to obtain resting myocardial blood flow (MBF) and coronary vasodilator reserve (CVR). Changes in LV mass (LVM) and volumes were assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. Myocardial oxygen consumption (MVVo2) was evaluated by [11C]acetate PET in a subset of seven patients to calculate myocardial external efficiency (MEE). After ASA, peak LVOTG decreased from 41 ± 32 to 23 ± 19 mmHg (P = 0.04), as well as LVM (215 ± 74 to 169 ± 63 g; P < 0.001). MBF remained unchanged (0.94 ± 0.23 to 0.98 ± 0.15 ml·min−1·g−1; P = 0.45), whereas CVR increased (2.55 ± 1.23 to 3.05 ± 1.24; P = 0.05). Preoperatively, the endo-to-epicardial MBF ratio was lower during hyperemia compared with rest (0.80 ± 0.18 vs. 1.18 ± 0.15; P < 0.001). After ASA, the endo-to-epicardial hyperemic (h)MBF ratio increased to 1.03 ± 0.26 (P = 0.02). ΔCVR was correlated to ΔLVOTG (r = −0.82; P < 0.001) and ΔLVM (r = −0.54; P = 0.04). MEE increased from 15 ± 6 to 20 ± 9% (P = 0.04). Coronary microvascular dysfunction in obstructive HCM is at least in part reversible by relief of LVOT obstruction. After ASA, hMBF and CVR increased predominantly in the subendocardium. The improvement in CVR was closely correlated to the absolute reduction in peak LVOTG, suggesting a pronounced effect of LV loading conditions on microvascular function of the subendocardium. Furthermore, ASA has favorable effects on myocardial energetics.

  • Reappraisal of a single-tissue compartment model for estimation of myocardial oxygen consumption by [11C]acetate PET : an alternative to conventional monoexponential curve fitting
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Nuclear medicine communications. - 0143-3636 .- 1473-5628. ; 32:1, s. 59-62
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background:Myocardial washout kinetics of carbon-11 labelled acetate ([11C]acetate) by positron emission tomography (PET) closely correlate with myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2). Analysis of the tissue time activity curve by conventional monoexponential curve fitting, however, does not account for spillover effects and recirculating 11C activity. In theory, a compartment model considering variations of the arterial input function and metabolic 11C contamination, could improve consistency of MVO2 estimations. The objective of the study was to investigate this hypothesis.Methods: Nineteen healthy volunteers were studied under resting conditions with [11C]acetate PET. Time activity curves were analysed by automated monoexponential curve fitting and a single-tissue compartment model to obtain Kmono and k2, as noninvasive indices of MVO2. Subsequently, Kmono and k2 were related to the rate-pressure product, as an indirect marker of MVO2.Results:The rate-pressure product was significantly correlated to Kmono (r=0.46, P=0.047) and k2 (r=0.75, P<0.001).Conclusion:The results of this study suggest that a single-tissue compartment model yields more accurate noninvasive estimates of MVO2 by the use of [11C]acetate PET in humans, in comparison with monoexponential curve fitting.

  • Relation of coronary microvascular dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy to contractile dysfunction independent from myocardial injury
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: American Journal of Cardiology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0002-9149 .- 1879-1913. ; 107:10, s. 1522-1528

    • We studied the spatial relations among hyperemic myocardial blood flow (hMBF), contractile function, and morphologic tissue alterations in 19 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC). All patients were studied with oxygen-15 water positron emission tomography during rest and adenosine administration to assess myocardial perfusion. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance was performed to derive delayed contrast-enhanced images and to calculate contractile function (Ecc) with tissue tagging. Eleven healthy subjects underwent similar positron emission tomographic and cardiovascular magnetic resonance scanning protocols and served as a control group. In the HC group, hMBF averaged 2.46 ± 0.91 ml/min/g and mean Ecc was −14.7 ± 3.4%, which were decreased compared to the control group (3.97 ± 1.48 ml/min/g and −17.7 ± 3.2%, respectively, p <0.001 for the 2 comparisons). Delayed contrast enhancement (DCE) was present only in patients with HC, averaging 6.2 ± 10.3% of left ventricular mass. In the HC group, Ecc and DCE in the septum (−13.7 ± 3.6% and 10.2 ± 13.6%) significantly differed from the lateral wall (−16.0 ± 2.8% and 2.4 ± 5.9%, p <0.001 for the 2 comparisons). In general, hMBF and Ecc were decreased in segments displaying DCE compared to nonenhanced segments (p <0.001 for the comparisons). In the HC group, univariate analysis revealed relations of hMBF to Ecc (r = −0.45, p <0.001) and DCE (r = −0.31, p <0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that Ecc was independently related to hMBF (beta −0.37, p <0.001) and DCE (beta 0.28, p <0.001). In conclusion, in HC hMBF is impaired and related to contractile function independent from presence of DCE. When present, DCE reflected a progressed disease state as characterized by an increased perfusion deficit and contractile dysfunction.
