Patients with CTEPH and mild hemodynamic severity of disease improve to a similar level of exercise capacity after pulmonary endarterectomy compared to patients with severe hemodynamic disease.

Abstract
The correlation between hemodynamics and degree of pulmonary vascular obstruction (PVO) is known to be poor in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), which makes the selection of patients eligible for pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) challenging. It can be postulated that patients with similar PVO but different hemodynamic severity have different postoperative hemodynamics and exercise capacity. Therefore, we aimed to assess the effects of PEA on hemodynamics and exercise physiology in mild and severe CTEPH patients. We retrospectively studied 18 CTEPH patients with a mild hemodynamic profile (mean pulmonary arterial pressure [mPAP] between 25 and 30 mmHg at rest) and CTEPH patients with a more severe hemodynamic profile (mPAP > 30 mmHg), matched by age, gender, and PVO. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing parameters were evaluated at baseline and 18 months following PEA. At baseline, exercise capacity, defined as oxygen uptake, was less severely impaired in the mild CTEPH group compared to the severe CTEPH group. After PEA, in the mild CTEPH group, ventilatory efficiency and oxygen pulse improved significantly (p < 0.05), however, the change in ventilatory efficiency and oxygen pulse was smaller compared to the severe CTEPH group. Only in the severe CTEPH group exercise capacity improved significantly (p < 0.001). Hence, in the present study, postoperative hemodynamic outcome and the CPET-determined recovery of exercise capacity in mild CTEPH patients did not differ from a matched group of severe CTEPH patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) is an orphan disease and uncommon etiology of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) characterized by substantial small pulmonary vein and capillary involvement. AREAS COVERED PVOD, also known as 'PAH with features of venous/capillary involvement' in the current ESC/ERS classification. EXPERT OPINION In recent years, particular risk factors for PVOD have been recognized, including genetic susceptibilities and environmental factors (such as exposure to occupational organic solvents, chemotherapy, and potentially tobacco). The discovery of biallelic mutations in the EIF2AK4 gene as the cause of heritable PVOD has been a breakthrough in understanding the molecular basis of PVOD. Venous and capillary involvement (PVOD-like) has also been reported to be relatively common in connective tissue disease-associated PAH (especially systemic sclerosis), and in rare pulmonary diseases like sarcoidosis and pulmonary Langerhans cell granulomatosis. Although PVOD and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) exhibit similarities, including severe precapillary PH, it is essential to differentiate between them since PVOD has a worse prognosis and requires specific management. Indeed, PVOD patients are characterized by poor response to PAH-approved drugs, which can lead to pulmonary edema and clinical deterioration. Due to the lack of effective treatments, early referral to a lung transplantation center is crucial.

Older age at Fontan completion is associated with reduced lung volumes and increased lung reactance. Int J Cardiol 2022; 364:38-43. [PMID: 35714716 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2022.06.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 05/06/2022] [Accepted: 06/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fontan patients have abnormal lung function, in particular restrictive lung disease and low diffusing capacity of carbon monoxide (DLCO). We sought to further characterise these abnormalities with detailed pulmonary function testing and examine associations with clinical parameters. METHODS 132 Fontan patients across Australia and New Zealand underwent spirometry, with 126 subjects included in final analyses. Measurement of diffusion capacity (DLCO) including its components (alveolar volume (VA) and rate of uptake of CO (KCO)) and oscillometry (reactance (X5) and resistance (R5)) were assessed in a subset of Fontan patients (n = 44) and healthy controls (n = 12). Double diffusion (to assess diffusing capacity of nitric oxide (DLNO), capillary blood volume (Vc), alveolar capillary membrane function (DmCO)) was performed in Fontan patients (n = 18) and healthy controls (n = 12). RESULTS FEV1 and FVC z-scores were low in Fontan subjects (mean - 1.67 ± 1.24 and - 1.61 ± 1.29, respectively) and correlated with exercise capacity. Compared to controls, z-scores for X5, DLCO, KCO, VA and DLNO were significantly lower in Fontan patients. R5, Vc and DmCO z-scores were preserved. X5 was associated with VA (r = 0.41,p = 0.009) and DmCO (r = 0.61,p = 0.008). Older age at Fontan completion was associated with lower z-scores for FEV1 (r = -0.46,p = 0.002), FVC (r = -0.47,p = 0.002), X5 (r = -0.32,p = 0.033) and VA (r = -0.36,p = 0.022). CONCLUSION Fontan patients have a reduced DLCO which is largely driven by low VA. Lung stiffness (X5) is increased which is associated with VA and DmCO. These parameters negatively correlate with older age of Fontan completion suggesting that earlier Fontan completion may have a beneficial effect on lung function.

Noninvasive diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension with hyperpolarised 129Xe magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy. ERJ Open Res 2022; 8:00035-2022. [PMID: 35586448 PMCID: PMC9108963 DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00035-2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Accepted: 03/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH) remains challenging. Pre- and post-capillary PH have different signatures on noninvasive 129Xe gas-exchange magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and dynamic MR spectroscopy (MRS). We tested the accuracy of 129Xe MRI/MRS to diagnose PH status compared to right heart catheterisation (RHC). Methods 129Xe MRI/MRS from 93 subjects was used to develop a diagnostic algorithm, which was tested in 32 patients undergoing RHC on the same day (n=20) or within 5 months (42±40 days) (n=12). Three expert readers, blinded to RHC, used 129Xe MRI/MRS to classify subjects as pre-capillary PH, post-capillary PH, no PH and no interstitial lung disease (ILD), or ILD. Results For pre-capillary PH, 129Xe MRI/MRS diagnostic accuracy was 75% (95% CI 66–84) with a sensitivity of 67% (95% CI 54–79) and a specificity of 86% (95% CI 75–96); for post-capillary PH accuracy was 69% (95% CI 59–78) with sensitivity of 54% (95% CI 34–74) and specificity of 74% (95% CI 63–84). The model performed well in straightforward cases of pre-capillary PH but was less accurate in its diagnosis in the presence of mixed disease, particularly in the presence of ILD or combined post- and pre-capillary PH. Conclusion This study demonstrates the potential to develop 129Xe MRI/MRS into a modality with good accuracy in detecting pre- and post-capillary PH. Furthermore, the combination of 129Xe dynamic MRS and gas-exchange MRI uniquely provide concurrent, noninvasive assessment of both haemodynamics and gas-exchange impairment that may aid in the detection of PH. Diagnostic models using 129Xe MRI/MRS metrics can noninvasively detect pre-capillary PH, post-capillary PH and ILD. The combination of 129Xe MRI/MRS provides a comprehensive assessment of haemodynamics and gas-exchange impairment in individual patients.https://bit.ly/3tDJw5P

Diffusing Capacity for Carbon Monoxide Predicts Response to Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty in Patients With Inoperable Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:762267. [PMID: 34926612 PMCID: PMC8674470 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.762267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2021] [Accepted: 11/02/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The hemodynamic results of balloon pulmonary angioplasty vary among patients with inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Previous studies revealed that microvasculopathy accounted for residual pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy, which could be reflected by the diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO). We aimed to identify whether the DLCO could predict the BPA response. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 75 consecutive patients with inoperable CTEPH who underwent BPA from May 2018 to January 2021 at Fuwai Hospital. According to the hemodynamics at follow-up after the last BPA, patients were classified as “BPA responders” (defined as a mean pulmonary arterial pressure ≤ 30 mmHg and/or a reduction of pulmonary vascular resistance ≥ 30%) or “BPA nonresponders.” Results: At the baseline, BPA responders had significantly higher DLCO values than nonresponders, although the other variables were comparable. In BPA responders, the DLCO decreased after the first BPA session and then returned to a level similar to the baseline at follow-up. Conversely, the DLCO increased constantly from the baseline to follow-up in nonresponders. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that a baseline DLCO of <70% and a percent change in DLCO between the baseline and the period within 7 days after the first BPA session (ΔDLCO) of > 6% were both independent predictors of an unfavorable response to BPA. Receiver operator characteristic analysis showed that the combination of a baseline DLCO < 70% and ΔDLCO > 6% demonstrated a better area under the curve than either of these two variables used alone. Conclusions: A baseline DLCO < 70% and ΔDLCO > 6% could independently predict unfavorable responses to BPA. Measuring the DLCO dynamically facilitates the identification of patients who might have unsatisfactory hemodynamic results after BPA.

Abstract
Screening is important to determine whether patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) have pulmonary hypertension because earlier pulmonary hypertension treatment can improve survival in these patients. Although decreased transfer factor of the lung for carbon monoxide (TLCO) is currently considered the best pulmonary function test for screening for pulmonary hypertension in SSc, small series have suggested that partitioning TLCO into membrane conductance (diffusing capacity) for carbon monoxide (DMCO) and alveolar capillary blood volume (VC) through combined measurement of TLCO and transfer factor of the lung for nitric oxide (TLNO) is more effective to identify pulmonary hypertension in SSc patients compared with TLCO alone. Here, the objective was to determine whether combined TLCO–TLNO partitioned with recently refined equations could more accurately detect pulmonary hypertension than TLCO alone in SSc.For that purpose, 572 unselected consecutive SSc patients were retrospectively recruited in seven French centres.Pulmonary hypertension was diagnosed with right heart catheterisation in 58 patients. TLCO, TLNO and VC were all lower in SSc patients with pulmonary hypertension than in SSc patients without pulmonary hypertension. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the presence of pulmonary hypertension was equivalent for TLCO (0.82, 95% CI 0.79–0.85) and TLNO (0.80, 95% CI 0.76–0.83), but lower for VC (0.75, 95% CI 0.71–0.78) and DMCO (0.66, 95% CI 0.62–0.70).Compared with TLCO alone, combined TLCO–TLNO does not add capability to detect pulmonary hypertension in unselected SSc patients.
