[PMID: 38040211 DOI: 10.1016/j.cpcardiol.2023.102241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/28/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several investigations have shown that existing risk stratification processes remain insufficient for stratifying sudden cardiac death risk in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). Multiple auxiliary parameters are investigated to offer a more precise prognostic model. Our aim was to assess the association between several ECG markers (epsilon waves, prolonged terminal activation duration (TAD) of QRS, fragmented QRS (fQRS), late potentials on signal-averaged electrocardiogram (SA-ECG), T-wave inversion (TWI) in right precordial leads, and extension of TWI in inferior leads) with the risk of developing poor outcomes in ARVC. METHODS A systematic literature search from several databases was conducted until September 9th, 2023. Studies were eligible if it investigated the relationship between the ECG markers with the risk of developing ventricular arrhythmic events. RESULTS This meta-analysis encompassed 25 studies with a total of 3767 participants. Our study disclosed that epsilon waves, prolonged TAD of QRS, fQRS, late potentials on SA-ECG, TWI in right precordial leads, and extension of TWI in inferior leads were associated with the incremental risk of ventricular arrhythmias, implantable cardioverter-defibrillator shock, and sudden cardiac death, with the risk ratios ranging from 1.46 to 2.11. In addition, diagnostic test accuracy meta-analysis stipulated that the extension of TWI in inferior leads had the uppermost overall area under curve (AUC) value amidst other ECG markers apropos of our outcomes of interest. CONCLUSION A multivariable risk assessment strategy based on the previously stated ECG markers potentially enhances the current risk stratification models in ARVC patients, especially extension of TWI in inferior leads.

Single-cell RNA sequencing in donor and end-stage heart failure patients identifies NLRP3 as a therapeutic target for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy. BMC Med 2024; 22:11. [PMID: 38185631 PMCID: PMC10773142 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-023-03232-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dilation may be the first right ventricular change and accelerates the progression of threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias and heart failure for patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), but the treatment for right ventricular dilation remains limited. METHODS Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of blood and biventricular myocardium from 8 study participants was performed, including 6 end-stage heart failure patients with ARVC and 2 normal controls. ScRNA-seq data was then deeply analyzed, including cluster annotation, cellular proportion calculation, and characterization of cellular developmental trajectories and interactions. An integrative analysis of our single-cell data and published genome-wide association study-based data provided insights into the cell-specific contributions to the cardiac arrhythmia phenotype of ARVC. Desmoglein 2 (Dsg2)mut/mut mice were used as the ARVC model to verify the therapeutic effects of pharmacological intervention on identified cellular cluster. RESULTS Right ventricle of ARVC was enriched of CCL3+ proinflammatory macrophages and TNMD+ fibroblasts. Fibroblasts were preferentially affected in ARVC and perturbations associated with ARVC overlap with those reside in genetic variants associated with cardiac arrhythmia. Proinflammatory macrophages strongly interact with fibroblast. Pharmacological inhibition of Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), a transcriptional factor predominantly expressed by the CCL3+ proinflammatory macrophages and several other myeloid subclusters, could significantly alleviate right ventricular dilation and dysfunction in Dsg2mut/mut mice (an ARVC mouse model). CONCLUSIONS This study provided a comprehensive analysis of the lineage-specific changes in the blood and myocardium from ARVC patients at a single-cell resolution. Pharmacological inhibition of NLRP3 could prevent right ventricular dilation and dysfunction of mice with ARVC.

Abstract
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy is an umbrella term for a group of inherited diseases of the cardiac muscle characterized by progressive fibro-fatty replacement of the myocardium. As suggested by the name, the disease confers electrical instability to the heart and increases the risk of the development of life-threatening arrhythmias, representing one of the leading causes of sudden cardiac death (SCD), especially in young athletes. In this review, the authors review the current knowledge of the disease, highlighting the state-of-the-art approaches to the prevention of the occurrence of SCD.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1043274. [PMID: 37008312 PMCID: PMC10060526 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1043274] [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: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective Unplanned admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) is the major in-hospital adverse event for patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). We aimed to establish a nomogram of individualized risk prediction for unplanned ICU admission in DCM patients. Methods A total of 2,214 patients diagnosed with DCM from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 01, 2010, to December 31, 2020, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were randomly divided into training and validation groups at a 7:3 ratio. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and multivariable logistic regression analysis were used for nomogram model development. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the model. The primary outcome was defined as unplanned ICU admission. Results A total of 209 (9.44%) patients experienced unplanned ICU admission. The variables in our final nomogram included emergency admission, previous stroke, New York Heart Association Class, heart rate, neutrophil count, and levels of N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide. In the training group, the nomogram showed good calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow χ 2 = 14.40, P = 0.07) and good discrimination, with an optimal-corrected C-index of 0.76 (95% confidence interval: 0.72-0.80). DCA confirmed the clinical net benefit of the nomogram model, and the nomogram maintained excellent performances in the validation group. Conclusion This is the first risk prediction model for predicting unplanned ICU admission in patients with DCM by simply collecting clinical information. This model may assist physicians in identifying individuals at a high risk of unplanned ICU admission for DCM inpatients.
