Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited evidence of instrumented measures of gait and balance to determine the functional effects of botulinum toxin injections (BoNT-A) in spasticity after stroke. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the functional changes in gait and balance following upper limb and lower limb BoNT-A in persons with stroke. METHODS A pre-post prospective study of 35 stroke patients with upper and/or lower limb spasticity after focal treatment with BoNT-A. Assessments were at baseline (T0), 6-weeks (T1) and 12-weeks (T2), using validated subjective and objective physical activity measures. RESULTS After BoNT-A injections, significant improvements in most measures of impairments, activity and participation domains were found at T1 (p < 0.05, effect sizes (r) = 0.5-0.9). There was a significant increase in low intensity physical activity (at T1) and sedentary time reductions at both follow-up periods. Instrumented gait/balance measures showed a significant increase in cadence and turn velocity, but no changes in sway measures were found using posturography. Improvements in most outcome measures were maintained at 12-weeks. CONCLUSION BONT-A improved scores in most clinical measures but only in some of the objective gait/balance and physical activity measures. Further robust studies should utilize a larger sample size to better determine the benefits of BoNT-A for stroke-related spasticity.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Mitral annular calcification (MAC) and mitral valve diseases (MVD) have been identified as strong predictors of mortality in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, the association between MAC and MVD, and the prognostic implications in these patients remain unclear.
Purpose
This study sought to investigate the association between severity of MAC and the prevalence of MVD as well as to assess the prognostic impact of MAC depending on the presence or absence of MVD in patients undergoing TAVR.
Methods
We identified 967 patients who have comprehensive echocardiographic and computed tomographic assessment of MVD and MAC from our institutional registry that is a part of the Swiss TAVI registry (NCT01368250) between August 2007 and June 2017.
Results
Among these patients, mild or moderate MAC was present in 45.2% and severe MAC was present in 17.8%. The prevalence of MVD was significantly higher in severe MAC patients, while the prevalence in patients with mild and moderate MAC was similar to patients without MAC. Compared to patients without severe MAC and MVD, an increased risk of all-cause death at 1 year was observed in patients with severe MAC and MVD (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.81, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.72–4.59, p<0.001) as well as in patients with non-severe MAC and MVD (HR: 2.80, 95% CI: 1.87–4.20, p<0.001) but not in patients with severe MAC and non-MVD (HR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.27–1.70, p=0.409). In a multivariable analysis, severe MAC concomitant with MVD was found to be an independent predictor of new permanent pacemaker implantation after TAVR (Odds ratio: 2.08, 95% CI: 1.27–3.41, p=0.004).
Conclusions
Severe MAC was associated with higher prevalence of MVD. Severe MAC concomitant with MVD was associated with increased risks of mortality at 1 year and conduction abnormalities after TAVR, whereas severe MAC without MVD was not.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Coronary microvascular dysfunction (MVD) is defined by impaired flow augmentation in response to a vasodilator, the pathophysiological basis of which is unclear. This study sought to address two major gaps in our understanding of MVD: firstly, whether diminished flow reserve is due to structural changes within the microvasculature or potentially reversible dysfunction and secondly to unravel the mechanism of exercise-induced ischemia in the absence of obstructive disease.
Methods
Simultaneous intracoronary pressure and flow velocity recordings were made in the left anterior descending artery of patients with angina and no obstructive epicardial disease (Fractional Flow Reserve >0.80). Measurements were made at rest, during adenosine-mediated hyperaemia and supine bicycle exercise. Wave intensity analysis was used to quantify waves that accelerate and decelerate coronary blood flow, coronary perfusion efficiency being defined as the proportion of total wave energy that accelerates blood flow. Patients were prospectively classified into MVD (coronary flow reserve <2.5) and controls with researchers blinded to the classification throughout the protocol. Myocardial perfusion and vascular function were assessed by 3T cardiac MRI and venous occlusion plethysmography with forearm blood flow (FBF) assessment during serial infusions of acetylcholine, adenosine and the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA).
Results
78 patients were enrolled (42 patients had MVD and 36 were controls), with no differences in cardiovascular risk factors between groups. The MVD group had elevated coronary blood flow (21.3±6.4 vs. 15.1±4.5cm s–1; p<0.001) and global myocardial perfusion (1.36±0.37 vs. 1.13±0.22ml/min/g; p=0.01) at rest. Maximum coronary and myocardial blood flow during hyperaemia was similar in both groups. During exercise, MVD patients achieved similar peak flow (30.5±10.0 vs. 26.3±7.7cm s–1; p=0.07) despite a higher rate-pressure product (20777±5205 vs. 17450±4710bpm.mmHg; p=0.01). Coronary perfusion efficiency, decreased with exercise in the MVD group (61±11% vs. 44±10% p<0.001) but was unchanged in controls. On MRI, MVD had lower hyperaemic endo-epicardial perfusion ratio than controls (0.94±0.08 vs. 1.04±0.13; p=0.001). Augmentation of FBF with acetylcholine was attenuated in MVD patients compared to controls (p=0.02) but the response to adenosine was similar (p=0.13). Infusion of L-NMMA caused a significantly greater reduction in FBF in MVD patients compared to controls (p<0.001).
Exercise Physiology in MVD
Conclusion
Impaired flow reserve in MVD represents a dysfunctional state, characterised by inappropriately elevated resting flow due to increased nitric-oxide synthase mediated vasodilatation. There is abnormal flow distribution in the myocardium predisposing to subendocardial ischaemia, associated with and exacerbated by impaired cardiac-coronary coupling during exercise. These novel findings may represent distinct therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Patients with micro- and macrovascular diseases, including atherosclerosis, have increased risk of cardiovascular events and early mortality. The atherosclerotic disease is characterised by accumulation of lipids, cells and proteins in the arterial wall, which includes remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Collagen type VI (COL6) is known to be over-expressed in patients with atherosclerosis. The biomarker PRO-C6, known as endotrophin, is a COL6 fragment that reflects formation of collagen type VI, and possess pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic activities.
Purpose
We explored whether increased endotrophin levels, measured by PRO-C6, were associated with intima-media thickness (IMT) and mortality in the IMI-SUMMIT cohort.
Methods
Circulating protein levels of PRO-C6 were measured in EDTA plasma from 1500 patients enrolled at four European University Hospitals, using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Follow-up data were available up to three years after sample collection. Associations between PRO-C6 and incidence of cardiovascular (CV) events and all-cause mortality were assessed by Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazard regression analyses. Pearson correlation was performed to explore the association of PRO-C6, IMT and clinical variables. Known confounders defined by the Framingham Heart study (age, gender and diabetes) were included in the Cox proportional hazard regression analysis.
Results
Plasma PRO-C6 was significantly correlated with IMT in both the common carotid artery and the carotid bulb (r=0.09, p=0.002 and r=0.11, p=0.0003, respectively), HbA1c (r=0.11, p<0.0001) and C-reactive protein (r=0.14, p<0.0001). A total of 145 patients suffered from fatal or non-fatal cardiovascular events during the three-year follow-up period. Patients in the highest PRO-C6 tertile had a two-fold increased risk of experiencing a CV event during follow-up (p=0.002), independently of age, presence of CVD at baseline, type 2 diabetes, smoking and statin treatment in a regression model.
Conclusion
The present findings demonstrate that circulating levels of PRO-C6 are associated with atherosclerosis severity and increased incidence of cardiovascular events. Since PRO-C6 detects the signaling molecule endotrophin, the results may indicate that endotrophin is not only a biomarker of atherosclerotic disease, but may have a role in promoting disease progression.

Abstract
AIM Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) have an unexplained higher incidence of pouchitis and a greater amount of peripouch fat compared with patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). The aims of this study were to compare the peripouch fat areas between patients with UC and patients with FAP, and to explore relationship between peripouch fat and pouchitis or chronic antibiotic-refractory pouchitis (CARP). METHOD Patients with an abdominal CT image from our prospectively maintained Pouch Database were included. Abdominal fat and peripouch fat were measured on CT images at different levels or planes. Comparisons of peripouch fat and CARP were performed before and after propensity score matching. RESULTS A total of 277 patients with UC and 40 patients with FAP were included. Compared with patients with FAP, patients with UC were found to have a higher incidence of pouchitis (58.5% vs 15.0%, P < 0.001) and CARP (24.5% vs 2.5%, P = 0.002) and a higher total peripouch fat area (P = 0.030) and mesenteric peripouch fat area (P = 0.022) at Level-3. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that diagnosis (UC vs FAP) and peripouch fat areas at Level-3 and Level-5 were independent risk factors for CARP. With propensity score matching, 38 pairs of patients with UC and FAP were matched successfully. After matching, patients with UC were found to have higher total peripouch fat area and higher mesenteric peripouch fat area at Level-3, and a higher incidence of pouchitis (57.9% vs 13.2%, P < 0.001) and CARP (23.7% vs 2.6%, P = 0.007). CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates that patients with UC have more peripouch fat than those with FAP, which may explain the difference in the frequency of pouchitis and CARP between these groups of patients.

Abstract
ObjectivesEhlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder leading to hypemobile joints including the craniocervical junction. Neck pain is a prominent feature. Structural abnormalities may have a dynamic element and thus may not be captured in a recumbent MRI. There is currently a lack of evidence1 assessing the use and diagnostic impact of positional MRI in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. We aim to evaluate structural features and dynamic instability in an EDS cohort employing dynamic MR imaging against a non EDS symptomatic cohort.DesignComparative Study.SubjectsPatients diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and control subjects (non EDS with cervical spondylosis) were included in this study.MethodsCranio – cervical spine global and segmental movement parameters in the neutral, extension and flexion positions were measured from T2-weighted images in the midline sagittal plane. These parameters included the clivo axial angle, grabb oakes line, C2 sagittal vertical axis, C0-C1 angle, C1-2 angle, cervical lordosis and T1 slope.ResultsThe clivo- axial angle measured in neutral was 139.7±10.4 degrees in the EDS group vs 148.9±8.4 in the control group (p<0.01) The cervical range of movement between flexion and extension was 74.6±24.4 in the EDS group vs 39.4±11.3 in the controls (p<0.0001).ConclusionsEDS patients with neck symptoms exhibit different static as well as dynamic craniocervical structural features compared to a general population control.ReferenceOnt Health Technol Assess Ser [Internet]2015July;15(13):1–24.
