Abstract
Observational studies have revealed that ischemic heart disease (IHD) has a unique manifestation on electrocardiographic (ECG). However, the genetic relationships between IHD and ECG remain unclear. We took 12-lead ECG as phenotypes to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for 41,960 samples from UK-Biobank (UKB). By leveraging large-scale GWAS summary of ECG and IHD (downloaded from FinnGen database), we performed LD score regression (LDSC), Mendelian randomization (MR), and polygenic risk score (PRS) regression to explore genetic relationships between IHD and ECG. Finally, we constructed an XGBoost model to predict IHD by integrating PRS and ECG. The GWAS identified 114 independent SNPs significantly (P value < 5 × 10-8/800, where 800 denotes the number of ECG features) associated with ECG. LDSC analysis indicated significant (P value < 0.05) genetic correlations between 39 ECG features and IHD. MR analysis performed by five approaches showed a putative causal effect of IHD on four S wave related ECG features at lead III. Integrating PRS for these ECG features with age and gender, the XGBoost model achieved Area Under Curve (AUC) 0.72 in predicting IHD. Here, we provide genetic evidence supporting S wave related ECG features at lead III to monitor the IHD risk, and open up a unique approach to integrate ECG with genetic factors for pre-warning IHD.

ECG criteria to distinguish hypertrophic cardiomyopathy featured with "Pseudo-STEMI" from acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction. J Electrocardiol 2023; 77:10-16. [PMID: 36527914 DOI: 10.1016/j.jelectrocard.2022.11.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2022] [Revised: 11/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUD The ECG profile of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) includes ST-segment elevation (STE) that may lead to misdiagnosis of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This pseudo-STEMI may bring non-essential treatment. We aimed to confirm the ECG differences between HCM featured with pseudo-STEMI and acute STEMI. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled 59 HCM cases (Group A) and 56 acute STEMI cases (Group B). Based on the locations of STE, all the patients were divided into four subgroups, including HCM with STE in anterior leads (Group A1), anterior STEMI (Group B1), HCM with STE in inferior leads (Group A2) and inferior STEMI (Group B2). Several ECG parameters were compared between these subgroups. RESULTS ECG parameters significantly differed between these groups, especially the number of leads with TWI. We evaluated the diagnostic value of ECG profiles for those groups. ROC analysis showed that for Group A vs. Group B, number of leads with TWI showed the highest AUC value of 0.805 and its cutoff of 2.5, with 76.3% sensitivity and 76.8% specificity. For Group A1 vs. Group B1, it showed the highest AUC value of 0.801 and its cut-off point was 2.5, with 77.1% sensitivity and 79.1% specificity. For Group A2 vs. Group B2, it showed the highest AUC value of 0.822 and the cut-off value was 4.5, with 54.5% sensitivity and 92.3% specificity. CONCLUSION ECG plays a valid tool to distinguish "Pseudo-STEMI" HCM from acute STEMI, especially number of leads with TWI.

Abstract
A promising scientific field is health monitoring and associated technology. A standard testing method to evaluate and identify heart issues is the electrocardiogram (E.C.G.) and diagnose cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). E.C.G. monitoring technologies are becoming more and more prevalent in publications at an exponential rate. E.C.G. is the most crucial tool for screening cardiology and other medical specialities. Twelve leads can be recorded by traditional E.C.G. equipment, while current E.C.G. systems allow for extra leads also with fewer electrodes. Furthermore, "smart" gadgets allow patients to take an E.C.G. at residence. Presenting different ischemia-related symptoms on the E.C.G. by the most recent recommendations. Presentation of contemporary E.C.G. systems and their possible benefit in identifying ischemia-related E.C.G. symptoms based on recent study findings. The identification of ischemia E.C.G. abnormalities can be facilitated and optimised by current E.C.G. systems using vector-based electrocardiography. Although they can be effective for documenting transient E.C.G. abnormalities, especially inside the S.T. segment, smart non-vector-based devices for patients are primarily beneficial for the diagnosis of arrhythmias and cannot substitute the 12-lead E.C.G. for the diagnosis of ischemia. The electrocardiogram (E.C.G.) is inexpensive and easily accessible, but because of its alleged limited specificity, its utility as a screening tool for early detection of athletes with a cardiac condition in danger of immediate cardiac death is contentious. The interpreting parameters have been continuously evolving over the past 10 years as various efforts have been made to better the separation between healthy and pathological E.C.G. abnormalities in athletes. Electrocardiographic abnormalities that are unrelated to cardiac electrical activity are known as electrocardiographic artefacts. E.C.G. elements, including the baseline and waves, can become altered as a result of artefacts.

ECG differences and ECG predictors in patients presenting with ST segment elevation due to myocardial infarction versus takotsubo syndrome. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2022; 40:101047. [PMID: 35573653 PMCID: PMC9096129 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2022.101047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2022] [Revised: 04/22/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Takotsubo syndrome and myocardial infarction can present with ST segment elevation. ECG in Takotsubo resembles left anterior descending artery myocardial infarction. Ventricular arrhythmia or death occur in both Takotsubo and myocardial infarction. ST segment changes predict ventricular arrhythmia or death in myocardial infarction. ST segment changes do not predict ventricular arrhythmia in Takotsubo syndrome.
Background Previous studies comparing electrocardiogram (ECG) in Takotsubo syndrome (TS) versus ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) included TS patients without ST elevation, did not consider the culprit lesion in STEMI or had groups that were unbalanced regarding sex and age. Accounting for these factors, we sought to conduct a more reliable comparison of ECG in TS with ST-elevation (STE-TS) versus STEMI. The secondary aim was to investigate if ST segment changes, T wave inversion or prolonged QT interval predicted ventricular arrhythmia or death in STE-TS and STEMI. Methods All STE-TS patients who presented at Sahlgrenska University Hospital between 2008 and 2019 were matched by sex and age to STEMI patients. STEMI patients were subcategorized according to whether or not the culprit lesion was located in the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Baseline characteristics, in‐hospital outcomes and admission ECGs were analyzed. Results 104 STE-TS patients were sex- and age-matched with 274 STEMI patients (113 LAD-STEMI, 161 non-LAD STEMI). Admission ECG in STE-TS was more similar to LAD STEMI than non-LAD STEMI. Reciprocal ST depression was less common in STE-TS (7/104, 6.7%) compared with STEMI (112/274, 41%; p= < 0.001). The sum of all ST elevations and the sum of all ST-deviations predicted life-threatening ventricular arrhythmia (LTVA) or death in LAD STEMI but not in STE-TS. Conclusions In conclusion, admission ECG in STE-TS was similar to LAD STEMI but reciprocal ST depression was less common in STE-TS compared with STEMI overall. ST segment changes predicted LTVA or death in STEMI but not in STE-TS.

Int J Cardiol 2021; 345:1-6. [PMID: 34715207 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2021.10.139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2021] [Revised: 09/27/2021] [Accepted: 10/22/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND QRS distortion (G3I) and frontal QRS-T angle (fQRS-T angle) are both electrocardiographic (ECG) signs of ongoing ischemia and depolarization-repolarization heterogeneity, which always occur in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS We retrospectively collected 592 STEMI patients who underwent coronary angiography and follow-up for 42 months. 1. We divided the patients into two groups according to whether they had G3I on admission, compared the differences in examination data and endpoint events between these two groups. 2. Group patients according to whether the endpoint events happened in hospital, at 12 and 42 months, compare whether there is a difference in fQRS-T angle at the same time point, and find out the predictive cutoff value of all-cause death. 3. Combined G3I and fQRS-T angle together to enhance the predictive value. RESULTS G3I and fQRS-T angle are both independent risk factors for all-cause death in STEMI patients within 12 months (G3I P = 0.014, fQRS-T angle P < 0.001) and within 42 months (P < 0.001). The cutoff values of fQRS-T angle for predicting all-cause death are 66.5° at 12 months and 90.5° at 42 months. When G3I and fQRS-T angle are combined used to predict the mortality, the specificity is significantly improved, but the sensitivity decreased. CONCLUSIONS G3I and fQRS-T angles are valuable in the prognostic assessment of STEMI patients, especially when combined. These findings help clinicians to identify high-risk patients early for more aggressive treatment.

Abstract
Chest pain is a common clinical symptom that leads to a patient's admission to the emergency department, which may be caused by acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Electrocardiography (ECG) is a useful tool for diagnosis, risk stratification, and treatment response monitoring in clinical practice. The coronary angiography should be done in ACS, which may detect spontaneous atherosclerotic coronary artery dissection (SCAD) that should be followed by urgent revascularization. We present a case of a 55-year-old male with the augmented Vector Right (aVR) ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction due to spontaneous atherosclerotic coronary artery dissection. The patient had a good outcome after we performed early coronary angiography, followed by the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Typically, right coronary artery (RCA) occlusion causes ST-segment elevation in inferior leads. However, it is rarely observed that RCA occlusion causes ST-segment elevation only in precordial leads. In general, an electrocardiogram is considered to be the most important method for determining the infarct-related artery, and recognizing this is helpful for timely discrimination of the culprit artery for reperfusion therapy. In this case, an elderly woman presented with chest pain showing dynamic changes in precordial ST-segment elevation with RCA occlusion.
CASE SUMMARY A 96-year-old woman presented with acute chest pain showing precordial ST-segment elevation with dynamic changes. Myocardial injury markers became positive. Coronary angiography indicated acute total occlusion of the proximal nondominant RCA, mild atherosclerosis of left anterior descending artery and 75% stenosis in the left circumflex coronary artery. Percutaneous coronary intervention was conducted for the RCA. Repeated manual thrombus aspiration was performed, and fresh thrombus was aspirated. A 2 mm × 15 mm balloon was used to dilate the RCA with an acceptable angiographic result. The patient’s chest pain was relieved immediately. A postprocedural electrocardiogram showed alleviation of precordial ST-segment elevation. The diagnosis of acute isolated right ventricular infarction caused by proximal nondominant RCA occlusion was confirmed. Echocardiography indicated normal motion of the left ventricular anterior wall and interventricular septum (ejection fraction of 54%), and the right ventricle was slightly dilated. The patient was asymptomatic during the 9-mo follow-up period.
CONCLUSION Cardiologists should be conscious that precordial ST-segment elevation may be caused by occlusion of the nondominant RCA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the diagnostic yield of the ECG criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction in a large cohort of emergency department chest pain patients, and to determine whether extended ECG criteria or reciprocal ST depression can improve accuracy. Design: Observational, register-based diagnostic study on the accuracy of ECG criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Between Jan 2010 and Dec 2014 all patients aged ≥30 years with chest pain who had an ECG recorded within 4 h at two emergency departments in Sweden were included. Exclusion criteria were: ECG with poor technical quality; QRS duration ≥120 ms; ECG signs of left ventricular hypertrophy; or previous coronary artery bypass surgery. Conventional and extended ECG criteria were applied to all patients. The main outcome was acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and an occluded/near-occluded coronary artery at angiography. Results: Finally, 19932 patients were included. Conventional ECG criteria for ST elevation myocardial infarction were fulfilled in 502 patients, and extended criteria in 1249 patients. Sensitivity for conventional ECG criteria in diagnosing AMI with coronary occlusion/near-occlusion was 17%, specificity 98% and positive predictive value 12%. Corresponding data for extended ECG criteria were 30%, 94% and 8%. When reciprocal ST depression was added to the criteria, the positive predictive value rose to 24% for the conventional and 23% for the extended criteria. Conclusions: In unselected chest pain patients at the emergency department, the diagnostic yield of both conventional and extended ECG criteria for ST-elevation myocardial infarction is low. The PPV can be increased by also considering reciprocal ST depression.

Abstract
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared Sars-CoV infection and COVID-19 as a pandemic and global emergency. In addition to viral pneumonia and the severe acute respiratory syndrome (Sars), the heart is affected in some patients due to the detection of biomarkers and reported cases of myocarditis and pericarditis. Therefore, the knowledge of electrocardiogram presentation of these actual infections can guide the choice for the best treatment and can help to reduce misdiagnosis, mainly the acute myocardial infarction, which is the main differential diagnosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In the ECG, significant ST elevation or depression according to specific amplitude criteria can be indicative of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Guidelines state that the ST amplitude should be measured at the J point, but data to support that this is the optimal measuring point for ACS detection is lacking. We evaluated the impact of different measuring points for ST deviation on the diagnostic accuracy for ACS in unselected emergency department (ED) chest pain patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS We included 14,148 adult patients with acute chest pain and an ECG recorded at a Swedish ED between 2010 and 2014. ST deviation was measured at the J point (STJ) and at 20, 40, 60 and 80 ms after the J point. A discharge diagnosis of ACS or not at the index visit was noted in all patients. RESULTS In total, 1489 (10.5%) patients had ACS. ST amplitude criteria at STJ had a sensitivity of 28% and a specificity of 92% for ACS. With these criteria, the highest positive and negative predictive values for ACS were obtained near the J point, but the optimal point varied with ST deviation, age group and sex. The overall best measuring points were STJ and ST20. CONCLUSIONS This study indicates that the diagnostic accuracy of the ECG criteria for ACS is very low in ED chest pain patients, and that the optimal measuring point for the ST amplitude in the detection of ACS differs between ST elevation and depression, and between patient subgroups.
