Abstract
This case report describes a pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction between crizotinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and sofosbuvir/velpatasvir, a direct-acting antiviral drug, leading to cardiac toxicity. A 75-year-old man, with no cardiovascular history but a diagnosis of metastatic nonsmall cell lung cancer with mesenchymal-epithelial transition exon-14 deletion and hepatitis C virus infection genotype 1A, received both crizotinib and sofosbuvir/velpatasvir. Crizotinib was well tolerated, but 1 week after sofosbuvir/velpatasvir initiation, the patient experienced bilateral lower-limb oedema and class III New York Heart Association dyspnoea. We assumed that increased exposure to crizotinib could account for this cardiac toxicity. Drug causality was probable according to the Naranjo scale. We hypothesized a reciprocal interaction between crizotinib and velpatasvir, mediated by both cytochrome 3A4 (CYP3A4) and P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Clinicians should be aware of the risk of drug-drug interactions between direct-acting antiviral agents that inhibit CYP3A4 (glecaprevir) and/or P-gp (voxilaprevir, velpatasvir) and anticancer tyrosine kinase inhibitors that are mostly CYP3A4 and/or P-gp substrates (gefitinib, afatinib, erlotinib, crizotinib, ceritinib, lorlatinib, brigatinib, capmatinib etc.).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac metastases from thyroid cancers are uncommon with a poor prognosis. There is a lack of long-term follow-up studies. CASES We report 2 cases of cardiac metastasis from medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). Both patients presented limited metastatic disease apart from a cardiac metastasis. The initial diagnosis was challenging and was facilitated by functional imaging with an immuno-PET-CT using an anti-CEA bispecific antibody and a 68Ga-labeled peptide. Both patients were treated with the multitarget kinase inhibitor vandetanib with prolonged stability. The first patient was alive at the last follow-up, 14 years after the diagnosis of cardiac metastasis. The second patient required surgical excision of the cardiac mass because of disease progression under vandetanib. CONCLUSION These cases illustrate long-term survival and effectiveness of clinical management of 2 patients who developed cardiac metastases from MTC, in the current era of personalized medicine with targeted therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Carney Complex (CNC) is a rare multiple endocrine and nonendocrine neoplasia syndrome. Manifestations and genotype-phenotype correlations have been described by retrospective studies, but no prospective study evaluating the occurrence of the different manifestations has been available so far. METHODS This multicenter national prospective study included patients with CNC, primary pigmented nodular adrenal disease (PPNAD), or a pathogenic PRKAR1A mutation; after a full initial workup, participants were followed for 3 years with annual standardized evaluation. RESULTS The cohort included 70 patients (50 female/20 male, mean age 35.4 ± 16.7 years, 81% carrying PRKAR1A mutation). The initial investigations allowed identification of several manifestations. At the end of the 3-year follow-up, the newly diagnosed manifestations of the disease were subclinical acromegaly in 6 patients, bilateral testicular calcifications in 1 patient, and cardiac myxomas in 2 patients. Recurrences of cardiac myxomas were diagnosed in 4 patients during the 3-year follow-up study period. Asymptomatic abnormalities of the corticotroph and somatotroph axis that did not meet criteria of PPNAD and acromegaly were observed in 11.4% and 30% of the patients, respectively. Patients carrying the PRKAR1A c.709-7del6 mutation had a mild phenotype. CONCLUSION This study underlines the importance of a systematic follow-up of the CNC manifestations, especially a biannual screening for cardiac myxoma. By contrast, regular screening for the other manifestations after a first extensive workup could be spread out, leading to a lighter and more acceptable follow-up schedule for patients. These are important results for recommendations for long-term management of CNC patients.

Abstract
Rationale Currently available data do not provide definitive evidence on the comparative benefits of closure of patent foramen ovale, oral anticoagulants and antiplatelet therapy in patients with patent foramen ovale-associated cryptogenic stroke Aim To assess whether transcatheter patent foramen ovale closure plus antiplatelet therapy is superior to antiplatelet therapy alone and whether oral anticoagulant therapy is superior to antiplatelet therapy, for secondary stroke prevention in patients aged 16 to 60 years with a large patent foramen ovale or a patent foramen ovale associated with an atrial septal aneurysm, and an otherwise unexplained ischaemic stroke or retinal ischaemia. Sample size Six hundred and sixty-four patients were included in the study. Methods and design CLOSE is an academic-driven, multicentre, randomized, open-label, three-group, superiority trial with blinded adjudication of outcome events. The trial has been registered with Clinical Trials Register (Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT00562289). Patient recruitment started in December 2007. Patient follow-up will continue until December 2016. Expected mean follow-up = 5.6 years. Study outcomes The primary efficacy outcome is the occurrence of fatal or nonfatal stroke. Safety outcomes include fatal, life-threatening or major procedure- or device-related complications and fatal, life-threatening or major haemorrhagic complications. Discussion CLOSE is the first specifically designed trial to assess the superiority of patent foramen ovale closure over antiplatelet therapy alone and the superiority of oral anticoagulants over antiplatelet therapy to prevent stroke recurrence in patients with patent foramen ovale-associated cryptogenic stroke.

Abstract
Angiogenesis inhibition is a major antitumor strategy that has emerged during the last decade. Oral tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) targeting the VEGF receptor, including sunitinib, sorafenib, axitinib, regorafenib, pazopanib, and vandetanib reduce tumor growth and metastasis. These agents are approved for the treatment of metastatic diseases in first or second-line. They display a narrow therapeutic index. However, data in the elderly and/or in patients with multiple illnesses remain scarce. This population is classically excluded from clinical trials. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of existing literature regarding antiangiogenic TKI tolerance in the elderly (>70 years old). We also highlight key points of the pre-therapeutic evaluation and summarize the management of common toxicities.

Abstract
170 Background: Older age is a cause of disparity in cancer treatment decision and treatment guidelines for patients with comorbidities, polypharmacy, denutrition or psycho-social frailty are needed. A pre-therapeutic multidimensional assessment might improve the complex patient management. We developed an experimental program of integrated medicine called ARIANE. We report 18 months activity of this outpatient setting evaluation, its feasibility and impact on treatment decision-making. Methods: Complex patients with predefined cancer treatment strategy entered into the program. A one-day evaluation combined consultations of cardiologist, geriatrician, diabetologist, anesthetist, pharmacist, pain specialist, dietician, psychologist and social worker. Evaluation of performance status, EKG, ejection fraction, ASA score, diabetes, social vulnerability and malnutrition was performed including a geriatric assessment, which focused on items like comorbidity (CIRS-G), dependance (ADL, IADL), fails (Up and Go Test), cognitive impairment (MMSE, Clock Drawing Test) and depression (GDS scale). A pharmacist assessed the risk of drug-drug interactions. Results: Eighty-seven pts, median age 81 years (range 25-94), 76% male, 51% PS 0-1, 77% grade 3 or 4 comorbidity were included. Genito-urinary, lung cancers and sarcoma represented 77% of pts. Eighty-two percent of pts were assessed by at least ≥ 7 participants. Identified factors of vulnerability were polypharmacy (n=65; 75%; >3 drugs), social distress or severe malnutrition (both n=21; 24%), depression (n=17; 19.5%) and cognitive impairment (n=13; 15%). We identified drug interaction in 18 pts (27%). The risk assessment resulted in anticancer treatment changes in 47/87 patients (54%): protocol adaptation (n=19/87; 22%), less aggressive treatment (n=15/87; 17.2%), or more intensive therapy (n=13/87; 15%). Conclusions: A one-day multidisciplinary risk assessment is an answer to the complexity of unfit cancer patients and improves the safety of anticancer treatments.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Congenital cardiovascular malformations and aortic dilatation are frequent in patients with Turner syndrome (TS). The objective of this study was to investigate the cardiovascular findings and management in a large cohort of patients, including children and adults. DESIGN/METHODS We recruited 336 patients with TS from a network of tertiary centers. We reviewed their files, checking for cardiovascular events, cardiac valve abnormalities, and aortic diameters indexed to body surface area (BSA) from magnetic resonance imaging (n=110) or echocardiography (n=300). RESULTS Informative cardiovascular data were available for only 233 patients. Vascular surgery was reported in 7.4% of the cohort. The first cause of surgery was aortic coarctation, detected in 6.9% at a median age of 9.5 (range: 0-60) years. Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) was detected in 21% at a median age of 20 years (25th-75th percentiles: 15-30). At least one aortic diameter exceeded 32 mm in 12% of the cohort. This was detected at a median age of 19 (7-30) years. When indexed to BSA, at least one aortic diameter exceeded 20 mm/m(2) in 39% of the cohort. CONCLUSION Our study shows that cardiovascular monitoring for TS patients is currently insufficient in France. BAV is present at birth, but often remains undiagnosed until later in life. Therefore, improved management in cardiovascular monitoring is required and a more systematic approach should be taken.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sorafenib displays major interpatient pharmacokinetic variability. It is unknown whether the pharmacokinetics of sorafenib influence its toxicity. METHODS We analyzed the severity and kinetics of sorafenib-induced toxicities in unselected consecutive patients with cancer, as well as their relationship with biological, clinical, and pharmacokinetic parameters. Toxicity was recorded bimonthly. Sorafenib plasma concentrations were assessed by liquid chromatography. RESULTS For 83 patients (median age, 62 years; range, 21-84 years), median sorafenib 12-hour area under the curve (AUC(0-12)) was 52.8 mg · h/L (range: 11.8-199.6). A total of 51 patients (61%) experienced grade 3-4 toxicities, including hand-foot skin reactions (23%), asthenia (18%), and diarrhea (11%). Sorafenib AUC(0-12) preceding grade 3-4 toxicities was significantly higher than that observed in the remaining population (61.9 mg · h/L vs. 53 mg · h/L). In 25 patients treated with fixed doses of sorafenib for the first 4 months, median dose-normalized AUC(0-12) on day 120 was significantly lower than on day 15 (63 vs. 102 mg · h/L). The incidence of hypertension and hand-foot skin reactions significantly decreased over time. CONCLUSION Sorafenib AUC(0-12) decreases over time, similarly to the incidence of hypertension and hand-foot skin reactions. Monitoring of sorafenib plasma concentrations may help to prevent acute severe toxicities and detect patients with suboptimal exposure at disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a common toxicity of bevacizumab, but the frequency of assessment of blood pressure and standardized grading remain to be defined. This study aimed to describe the incidence of bevacizumab-induced hypertension and factors associated with its development, then to retrospectively assess its relation with activity. PATIENTS AND METHODS One hundred nineteen patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, or ovarian cancer receiving bevacizumab (2.5 mg/kg per week) and chemotherapy were eligible for this analysis. Blood pressure was measured at home twice daily according to international guidelines, and graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC), version 3.0, and the European Society of Hypertension (ESH) criteria. RESULTS Home-based measurements detected significantly more cases of hypertension than in-clinic measurements did, according to the ESH criteria (54.6% versus 24.4%; p < .001) or the NCI-CTC (42.9% versus 22.7%; p = .0015). Very early hypertension (within 42 days, according to the ESH criteria) but not hypertension (occurring at any time during treatment period) was predictive of response (p = .0011 and p = .26, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Our preliminary results indicate that home-based measurement and grading according to the ESH criteria represents a reliable method to detect bevacizumab-induced hypertension. Whether hypertension is a biomarker of bevacizumab activity remains to be determined in a prospective study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension is a common toxicity of anti-VEGF agents, but its optimal treatment remains to define. This study aimed to describe the efficacy and tolerability of amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, in patients with metastatic malignancies treated with bevacizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody to VEGF. PATIENTS AND METHODS One hundred and eighty-seven patients with advanced or metastatic NSCLC, colorectal or ovarian cancer receiving bevacizumab (5 mg/kg every 2 weeks or 7.5 mg/kg every 3 weeks) and chemotherapy were eligible for this analysis. Blood pressure was measured at home twice daily according to international guidelines. Patients received amlodipine 5 mg daily for grade ≥ 2 bevacizumab-induced hypertension. RESULTS Twenty-six patients received amlodipine 5 mg daily for de novo hypertension (group A), and another 10 patients received amlodipine for exacerbation of previously existing hypertension (group B). Hypertension was controlled within 7 days under amlodipine in 23/26 (88.5%, 95%CI: 76.2-100) patients in group A, and 8/10 (80%, 95%CI: 55.2-100) patients in group B, with a favourable toxicity profile. CONCLUSIONS Amlodipine 5 mg daily appears safe and efficient for the treatment of hypertension in patients receiving bevacizumab at a dose-intensity of 2.5 mg/kg/week. Further prospective studies are warranted to confirm these results.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD Sorafenib is a novel oral bis-aryl urea compound originally developed as an inhibitor of RAF kinase for its anti-proliferative property. Sorafenib also inhibits receptor tyrosine kinases of multiple pro-angiogenic factors such as VEGFR-1/2/3, Flt-3 and PDGFR-beta. The combination of both its anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic properties makes sorafenib an attractive agent in cancer treatment. Sorafenib has been approved for the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma as well as hepatocellular cancer. Despite its inherent selectivity, sorafenib can cause unusual adverse events whose the management represents a challenge for oncologists. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW Relevant literature was identified using a Pubmed search of articles published up to June 2009. Search terms included 'sorafenib' and 'toxicity'. Original articles were reviewed and relevant citations from these articles were also considered. WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN The clinical aspect of sorafenib-induced adverse events and the molecular basis behind this toxicity are discussed. Finally, recommendations for the management of these adverse events are proposed. TAKE HOME MESSAGE Although not life-threatening, toxicity of sorafenib can severely impact the physical, psychological and social well-being of patients. The management of this unusual toxicity highlights the particular need of new pluridisciplinarities linking oncologist, cardiologist and dermatologist.

Abstract
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a rare disorder in which left ventricular systolic dysfunction and symptoms of heart failure occur in the peripartum period. Although cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is largely used for diagnosis and prognosis assessment in cardiomyopathies, its interest in PPCM is unknown. We reported two cases of patients with PPCM who underwent CMR. One patient had no CMR abnormality, while the second patient had several areas of myocardial delayed enhancement (MDE) on CMR images. During follow up, the patient with normal CMR was asymptomatic and had full recovery of cardiac function, whereas the patient with MDE was still symptomatic with persistence of a left ventricular dysfunction. CMR could have prognosis value in PPCM as demonstrated in other cardiomyopathies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the prevalence of primary cardiac complications in a large population of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), using recently developed echocardiographic techniques. METHODS We prospectively studied 100 consecutive patients (mean +/- SD age 54 +/- 14 years; 86 women) presenting with SSc without pulmonary arterial hypertension or clinical manifestations of heart failure. All patients underwent standard echocardiography, along with measurements of longitudinal velocities by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) to assess left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) contractility and LV diastolic function. Results were compared with those in 26 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. RESULTS Patients with SSc had a wider mean left atrial diameter and impaired relaxation compared with the controls. A trend was observed toward a smaller LV ejection fraction (EF) in the patients (mean +/- SD 64.9 +/- 0.6%) than in the controls (67.2 +/- 0.7%), as well as higher pulmonary artery pressure (mean +/- SD 33.3 +/- 0.6 mm Hg versus 30.8 +/- 1.0 mm Hg). LVEF was <55% in 7 patients versus none of the controls. Peak systolic mitral annular velocity as measured by TDI was <7.5 cm/second in 14 patients versus none of the controls (P = 0.040). Mitral annulus early diastolic velocity was <10 cm/second in 30 patients versus 2 of the controls (P = 0.022). Fifteen patients and none of the controls had reduced peak systolic tricuspid annular velocity (P = 0.039). The TDI results correlated with each other, but not with lung abnormalities or other disease characteristics. CONCLUSION Depression of LV and RV systolic and LV diastolic function is common in patients with SSc and is due to primary myocardial involvement. Considering the major contributions of TDI, the addition of this simple technique to standard measurements may improve the detection of heart involvement in patients with SSc.

Abstract
Pregnancy causes important alterations in the cardiovascular haemodynamics which have important bearing in the case of pre-existing cardiac disease. In addition, cardiovascular medications may be contraindicated in pregnant women. With a better recognition of the specific interactions between pregnancy and cardiac conditions, it is now possible to allow pregnancies in numerous women with recognised cardiac diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as a marker of early pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) and to study changes in the levels of this marker following treatment with dihydropyridine-type calcium-channel blocker (DTCCB) in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). METHODS We evaluated 40 consecutive SSc patients who had been hospitalized for followup care (mean +/- SD age 56 +/- 11 years and mean +/- SD duration of cutaneous disease 9 +/- 9 years; 27 with limited cutaneous and 13 with diffuse cutaneous disease) but who had no clinical symptoms of heart failure and had a normal left ventricular ejection fraction. At baseline, 10 patients had PAH, defined as a systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) >40 mm Hg, as measured by echocardiography. Levels of NT-proBNP were determined at baseline (after discontinuation of DTCCB treatment for 72 hours), after taking 3 doses of DTCCB following treatment reinitiation (assessment 1), and after 6-9 months of continuous DTCCB treatment (assessment 2) in the 20 patients who attended regular appointments (including the 10 patients with PAH at baseline). RESULTS At baseline, 13 patients had high NT-proBNP values for their ages. High NT-proBNP levels identified patients with PAH with a sensitivity of 90%, a specificity of 90.3%, a positive predictive value of 69.2%, and a negative predictive value of 96%. The NT-proBNP level correlated with the sPAP (r = 0.44; P = 0.006). By assessment 1, the number of patients with PAH and high levels of NT-proBNP had decreased from 9 of 10 to 2 of 10 (P = 0.02). This decrease was partially sustained at assessment 2 (4 of 10 patients; P = 0.06). CONCLUSION NT-proBNP is a useful biologic marker that can be used to diagnose early PAH in SSc patients without clinical heart failure. Measurement of NT-proBNP may be valuable for the evaluation of treatment with DTCCB and vasodilators in patients with PAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An accurate diagnosis of patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) may be of decisional importance in the management of patients with ischemic stroke. Very few studies have been devoted to observer agreement in the diagnosis of these atrial septum abnormalities using contrast transesophageal echocardiography, which is considered as the method of choice for the diagnosis. The aim of this study was to assess interobserver and intraobserver variability in the diagnosis of PFO and ASA with contrast echocardiography. METHODS Three sonographers independently reviewed 100 contrast studies stored on videotape on 2 occasions each. The interobserver and intraobserver variability was assessed by calculating kappa statistics. RESULTS The overall interobserver and intraobserver kappa values for the assessment of degree of shunting through a PFO were 0.77 (first and second reading) and 0.82, respectively. The best kappa statistics were obtained when no and small shunts (less than 10 microbubbles) were pooled and compared with larger shunts. For the diagnosis of ASA, the overall interobserver kappa value was 0.45 for the first reading and 0.71 for the second reading, whereas the overall intraobserver kappa value was 0.74. CONCLUSION Interobserver and intraobserver agreements for the diagnosis of PFO and ASA by transesophageal echocardiography are not perfect and need to be improved, particularly for ASA. This variability has to be taken into account when deciding on a potential risky treatment to prevent recurrent strokes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patent foramen ovale and atrial septal aneurysm have been identified as potential risk factors for stroke, but information about their effect on the risk of recurrent stroke is limited. We studied the risks of recurrent cerebrovascular events associated with these cardiac abnormalities. METHODS A total of 581 patients (age, 18 to 55 years) who had had an ischemic stroke of unknown origin within the preceding three months were consecutively enrolled at 30 neurology departments. All patients received aspirin (300 mg per day) for secondary prevention. RESULTS After four years, the risk of recurrent stroke was 2.3 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 0.3 to 4.3 percent) among the patients with patent foramen ovale alone, 15.2 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 1.8 to 28.6 percent) among the patients with both patent foramen ovale and atrial septal aneurysm, and 4.2 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 1.8 to 6.6 percent) among the patients with neither of these cardiac abnormalities. There were no recurrences among the patients with an atrial septal aneurysm alone. The presence of both cardiac abnormalities was a significant predictor of an increased risk of recurrent stroke (hazard ratio for the comparison with the absence of these abnormalities, 4.17; 95 percent confidence interval, 1.47 to 11.84), whereas isolated patent foramen ovale, whether small or large, was not. CONCLUSIONS Patients with both patent foramen ovale and atrial septal aneurysm who have had a stroke constitute a subgroup at substantial risk for recurrent stroke, and preventive strategies other than aspirin should be considered.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES In dyspneic patients without left ventricular enlargement, it may be difficult to differentiate between obstructive lung disease and diastolic heart failure. Determination of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels, known to increase with ventricular stretch, may be of clinical relevance in this situation. We compared the discriminant power of BNP blood levels and of echocardiography in patients with either chronic obstructive lung disease or diastolic heart failure. PATIENTS Twenty-six New York Heart Association class III dyspneic patients with normal left ventricular systolic function were enrolled: 17 patients with chronic obstructive lung disease and 9 patients with unequivocal diastolic heart failure. RESULTS Echocardiographic data were unable to accurately differentiate between the two groups, whereas BNP levels were significantly and markedly higher in patients with diastolic heart failure when compared to those with obstructive lung disease (224 +/- 240 pg/mL vs 14 +/- 12 pg/mL, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS These preliminary results warrant a prospective, large-scale evaluation of the value of BNP assay for determining diastolic dysfunction, a common cause of dyspnea in elderly patients, and differentiating it from other diagnoses such as obstructive lung disease.

Abstract
The authors describe a case of clinical, echocardiographic and haemodynamic adiastole in a man with severe rheumatoid arthritis with a previous history of pericardial effusion. The adiastole was mixed, fibrous pericarditis, confirmed by ultra fast CT scan and at surgery; myocardial adiastole was suspected on finding thickening of the ventricular walls (in the absence of hypertension and coronary artery disease) and, unfortunately, confirmed by the persistence of adiastole despite very satisfactory pericardectomy. The authors underline the involvement of the three cardiac tunics in rheumatoid arthritis and the value of different diagnostic methods in the differentiation between constrictive pericarditis and restrictive cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Bartonella Quintana is an exceptionally rare cause of endocarditis. The frequency of this condition is increasing and is probably underestimated because of the difficulty in diagnosing. The clinical context is that of socially deprived classes, the agent of transmission of the germ being body lice. The commonest valve affected is the aortic valve. This infection may also give rise to a mitral annulus abscess, as in this particular case. The diagnosis should be suspected in all cases of endocarditis with negative blood cultures in socially deprived patients as special diagnostic methods are required. Bartonellosis serology and drainage of effusions to perform a Gimenez stain to show intra-cellular bacteria and a polymerase chain reaction to sequence the nucleic acids, will give an accurate diagnosis. Similarly, the operative specimens should be sent to a specialised department for the culture of these bacteria (in France, the Marseille Ricketsioses Institute). The treatment of Bartonella endocarditis is very controversial. The usual recommendations are an association of betalactamines and an aminoside for one month and macrolides or tetracyclines. There is lack of consensus about follow-up. It would seem prudent to perform a clinical examination to search for a relapse of the infection and monthly serologies until they return to normal values.

Abstract
Pharmacodynamics of beta-adrenergic blockers and dihydropyridines are potentially synergic in the treatment of angina pectoris. The anti-ischaemic effect of beta blockers is mainly the consequence of reductions in heart rate and inotropism, while DHPs promote afterload reduction and coronary vasodilation. Furthermore, beta blockers antagonise the possible dihydropyridines-induced reflex sympathetic activation. Despite these mechanistic considerations the results of clinical trials are not homogeneous. Differences in the assessment of the beta blocker-dihydropyridines connection are due to differences in trial design, dosage and formulation of both dihydropyridines and beta-blockers, and in baseline characteristics of the study population. The predominant finding is that a combination of a dihydropyridines and a beta blocker is not superior to either drug alone as a first step treatment of unselected patients with stable or unstable angina. In contrast, combination therapy is often efficacious when residual ischaemia is present under dihydropyridines or beta blocker monotherapy. That this combination is usually well tolerated thus appears to represent a useful treatment of severe angina pectoris. Combination of a non-dihydropyridines calcium antagonist such as diltiazem or verapamil with a beta blocker offers similar synergistic anti-ischaemic effects, but the addition of their negative chronotropic action may lead to severe bradycardia and thus limit its usefulness, especially in elderly patients with conduction disturbances.

Abstract
The object of therapeutic trials in cardiac failure is to improve the quality of life by controlling the principal symptoms which are dyspnoea and tiredness on effort and to improve survival. A critical review of therapeutic trials in cardiac failure must examine whether these two objectives have been attained and if they are attained simultaneously. In some cases, there is symptomatic improvement but with decreased life expectancy whereas in others, survival is prolonged without adequate control of symptoms. A critical analysis should examine the pertinence of these criteria of efficacy, and confirm that the problem of survival has been assessed, that reliable data has been provided, that the study population is representative of the real population of the patients to be treated, and finally, that the experimental protocol is realistic, i.e. a prospective study with analysis of intention to treat.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE An association between atrial septal aneurysm and embolic events has been suggested. Atrial septal aneurysm has been shown to be associated with patent foramen ovale and, in some reports, with mitral valve prolapse. These two latter cardiac disorders have been identified as potential risk factors for ischemic stroke. The aim of this prospective study was to assess the role of atrial septal aneurysm as an independent risk factor for stroke, especially for cryptogenic stroke. METHODS We studied the prevalence of atrial septal aneurysm, patent foramen ovale, and mitral valve prolapse in 100 consecutive patients < 55 years of age with ischemic stroke who underwent extensive etiological investigations. We compared these results with those in a control group of 50 consecutive patients. The diagnosis of atrial septal aneurysm and patent foramen ovale relied on transesophageal echocardiography with a contrast study and that of mitral valve prolapse, on two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. RESULTS Stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that atrial septal aneurysm (odds ratio, 4.3; 95% confidence interval, 1.3 to 14.6; P = .01) and patent foramen ovale (odds ratio, 3.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.5 to 10; P = .003) but not mitral valve prolapse were significantly associated with the diagnosis of cryptogenic stroke. The stroke odds of a patient with both atrial septal aneurysm and patent foramen ovale were 33.3 times (95% confidence interval, 4.1 to 270) the stroke odds of a patient with neither of these cardiac disorders. For a patient with atrial septal aneurysm of > 10-mm excursion, the stroke odds were approximately 8 times the stroke odds of a patient with atrial septal aneurysm of < 10 mm. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that atrial septal aneurysm and patent foramen ovale are both significantly associated with cryptogenic stroke and that their association has a marked synergistic effect. Atrial septal aneurysms of > 10-mm excursion are associated with a higher risk of stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A patent foramen ovale has been reported to be significantly more frequent in young stroke patients than in matched control subjects, and paradoxical embolism has been suggested as the main mechanism of stroke in this situation. The present study was designed to test this hypothesis. METHODS Sixty-eight consecutive patients under 55 years of age presenting with an ischemic stroke had an extensive workup, including transesophageal echocardiography with contrast. We compared the prevalence of criteria for the diagnosis of paradoxical embolism in patients with and without a patent foramen ovale. RESULTS A patent foramen ovale was found in 32 patients (47%). A Valsalva-provoking activity was present at stroke onset in six patients with a patent foramen ovale and in eight patients with no patent foramen ovale (chi 2 = 0.1, nonsignificant). Clinical/radiological features suggestive of an embolic mechanism were not more frequent in patients with a patent foramen ovale. Clinical evidence of deep vein thrombosis was present in one patient with a patent foramen ovale and in none of the others. No occult venous thrombosis was found in a subgroup of patients with a patent foramen ovale and no definite cause for stroke who underwent venography (n = 13). CONCLUSIONS Our results do not support the hypothesis that paradoxical embolism is the primary mechanism of stroke in patients with a patent foramen ovale.

Abstract
Resistance to gas flow of an airway is a function of both airway smooth muscle tone and thickness of the airway wall internal to the outer ring of airway smooth muscle. Schematically, the increase in airway resistance caused by shortening of airway smooth muscle may be potentiated by a concomitant increase in airway wall thickness caused by vasodilation of the bronchial vessels and/or microvascular leakage. Conversely, bronchial vasoconstriction may limit to some extent the increase in resistance to gas flow caused by airway smooth muscle shortening and/or congestion and edema of the airway wall. Many endogenous paracrine mediators, putatively involved in asthma and bronchial hyperresponsiveness, have both bronchomotor and vascular effects. The overall effects on resistance to airflow of endogenous or exogenous agents depend not only upon pre-existing airway smooth muscle tone and pre-existing condition of bronchial vessels but also upon two factors that facilitate microvascular leakage, namely, inflammation of the airway wall and outflow pressure of the bronchial circulation, which is close to left atrial pressure.

Abstract
A 59-year-old woman hospitalised because of dyspnea and a heart murmur in a context of pyrexia was found to have evidence of obstruction of the pulmonary arterial system, clearly defined by ultrasonography, catheterisation and angiography and Imatron scan. The particular feature of this fifth reported case of pulmonary artery leiomyosarcoma is its documentation by transesophageal ultrasonography and tumor biopsy during catheterisation. Surgery with partial excision of the tumor was followed by survival for 6 months, bearing in mind the absence of chemo- or radiosensitivity of this type of tumor. Cases from the literature are reviewed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bronchial hyperresponsiveness to cholinergic stimuli such as the inhalation of methacholine is common in patients with impaired left ventricular function. Such hyperresponsiveness is best explained by cholinergic vasodilation of blood vessels in the small airways, with extravasation of plasma due to high left ventricular filling pressure. Because this vasodilation may be prevented by the inhalation of the vasoconstrictor agent methoxamine, we studied the effect of methoxamine on exercise performance in patients with chronic left ventricular dysfunction. METHODS We studied 19 patients with a mean left ventricular ejection fraction of 22 +/- 4 percent and moderate exertional dyspnea. In the first part of the study, we performed treadmill exercise tests in 10 patients (group 1) at a constant maximal workload to assess the effects of 10 mg of inhaled methoxamine on the duration of exercise (a measure of endurance). In the second part of the study, we used a graded exercise protocol in nine additional patients (group 2) to assess the effects of inhaled methoxamine on maximal exercise capacity and oxygen consumption. Both studies were carried out after the patients inhaled methoxamine or placebo given according to a randomized, double-blind, crossover design. RESULTS In group 1, the mean (+/- SD) duration of exercise increased from 293 +/- 136 seconds after the inhalation of placebo to 612 +/- 257 seconds after the inhalation of methoxamine (P = 0.001). In group 2, exercise time (a measure of maximal exercise capacity) increased from 526 +/- 236 seconds after placebo administration to 578 +/- 255 seconds after methoxamine (P = 0.006), and peak oxygen consumption increased from 18.5 +/- 6.0 to 20.0 +/- 6.0 ml per minute per kilogram of body weight (P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The inhalation of methoxamine enhanced exercise performance in patients with chronic left ventricular dysfunction. However, the improvement in the duration of exercise at a constant workload (endurance) was much more than the improvement in maximal exercise capacity assessed with a progressive workload. These data suggest that exercise-induced vasodilation of airway vessels may contribute to exertional dyspnea in such patients. Whether or not inhaled methoxamine can provide long-term benefit in patients with heart failure will require further study.

Abstract
A moderate to severe bronchial hyperresponsiveness to methacholine is frequently observed in patients with left heart failure. This bronchial obstruction can be prevented by inhalation of methoxamine, an alpha-adrenergic vasoconstrictor agent. The mechanisms of this hyperresponsiveness include a direct vasodilating effect of methacholine on bronchial vessels and a contractile effect of an airway smooth muscles. This bronchoconstriction is the consequence of a direct effect of methacholine and a contractile effect of an extravased mediators and of an increased vagal tone due to the stimulation a bronchial afferent nerves. The role of bronchial hyperresponsiveness in cardiac dyspnea is currently under investigations.

Abstract
Noradrenergic sympathetic tone is always increased in chronic left ventricular failure of which it is one of the main compensatory mechanisms. Beta-1-adrenergic stimulation increases the heart rate and left ventricular contractility. However, the efficacy of this "compensatory" mechanism is limited on the one hand by the energetic cost of inotropic stimulation and, on the other hand, by the phenomenon of desensitisation and down-regulation of myocardial beta-1-receptors during intense and prolonged noradrenergic stimulation as observed in chronic cardiac failure. These physiopathological concepts raise the question of the indications of drugs affecting betareceptors in cardiac failure. Positive inotropic beta-mimetics can only be used during short periods of acute decompensation: low dose betablocker therapy protects the betareceptors from the phenomenon of desensitisation and seem to exert a beneficial action in this way in some cases of cardiac failure; these preliminary results require confirmation by large scale controlled therapeutic trials. Finally, a new pharmacological class of drugs, the beta-1 adrenergic partial agonists, seems to be useful in the management of moderate degrees of cardiac failure due to ischemic heart disease.

Abstract
Hyperactivity of the noradrenergic sympathetic system is one of the essential "compensatory"mechanisms in chronic left ventricular failure. The ensuing stimulation of myocardial beta-adrenergic receptors results in an increase of heart rate and contractility which, to some extent, counterbalances the alteration of left ventricular function, but rapidly reaches its limits: the excessive shortening of diastoles and, mostly, the increase of myocardial oxygen demand neutralize the beneficial haemodynamic effect of beta-adrenergic stimulation, especially when ischaemia is the cause of the heart failure; the chronic exposure of adrenergic receptors to noradrenaline in high concentrations leads to desensitization, to a "down regulation" which primarily affects the beta 1 receptors and spares, at least partly, the myocardial beta 2 receptors which seem to play a quantitatively important inotropic role, particularly in chronic heart failure. These new data on the physiology of the cardiac noradrenergic system have major therapeutic consequences: in practice, the positively inotropic beta-stimulants can only be used for a short period in acute episodes of heart failure; - the use of beta-blockers in low doses is now considered in the treatment of some forms of heart failure; the mechanism of their therapeutic action remains controverted, and their long-term effectiveness in a large patient population is under study; - a new pharmacological class, beta-adrenoceptor partial agonists, seems to give satisfactory clinical and haemodynamic results in mode-rate heart failure, A wider clinical evaluation is needed to determine the therapeutic role of theses new pharmacodynamic agents.

Abstract
We studied changes in lung volumes and in bronchial response to methacholine chloride (MC) challenge when antishock trousers (AST) were inflated at venous occlusion pressure in healthy subjects in the standing posture, a maneuver known to shift blood toward lung vessels. On inflation of bladders isolated to lower limbs, lung volumes did not change but bronchial response to MC increased, as evidenced by a greater fall in the forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) at the highest dose of MC used compared with control without AST inflation (delta FEV1 = 0.94 +/- 0.40 vs. 0.66 +/- 0.46 liter, P less than 0.001). Full inflation of AST, i.e., lower limb and abdominal bladder inflated, significantly reduced vital capacity (P less than 0.001), functional residual capacity (P less than 0.01), and FEV1 (P less than 0.01) and enhanced the bronchial response to MC challenge compared with partial AST inflation (delta FEV1 = 1.28 +/- 0.47 liter, P less than 0.05). Because there was no significant reduction of lung volumes on partial AST inflation, the enhanced bronchial response to MC cannot be explained solely by changes in base-line lung volumes. An alternative explanation might be a congestion and/or edema of the airway wall on AST inflation. Therefore, to investigate further the mechanism of the increased bronchial response to MC, we pretreated the subjects with the inhaled alpha 1-adrenergic agonist methoxamine, which has both direct bronchoconstrictor and bronchial vasoconstrictor effects.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Effort dyspnea in cardiac failure corresponds to a subjective perception of difficulty in breathing which is itself secondary to a disproportion between the central bulbar respiratory regulation and the level of pulmonary ventilation attained. In cardiac failure, this situation is the result of dysfunction of both the respiratory apparatus and the skeletal striated muscle during exercise. During exercise a rise in left ventricular end diastolic pressure causes: a reduction in pulmonary compliance. The bronchial and alveolar capillaries drain into the pulmonary veins. The congestion of these capillaries and the resulting oedema makes the lung "stiffer"; an increase in the resistances of the small airways due to direct compression by congested bronchial vessels. The physiological dead space increases: the respiratory muscles ventilate pulmonary zones which are not perfused to no benefit. The reduction of pulmonary compliance, the increased resistances of the airways and of the physiological dead space all contribute to increase the work of the respiratory muscles. In addition to these mechanical phenomena, there is greater stimulation of the respiratory centre in the brain stem by the metabolic abnormalities of the skeletal striated muscles. During effort, they rapidly function under anaerobic conditions and the resulting hyperproduction of lactate and carbon dioxide stimulates the respiratory centres.

Abstract
The bronchial circulation is a physiological left-to-left shunt; the venous return of the bronchial arteries vascularising the intra-pulmonary bronchi drains directly into the left heart chambers. In cardiac failure, increased left ventricular filling pressures affects the bronchial circulation and causes stasis and congestion. Congestion of the arterial and venous bronchial microcirculation leads to thickening of the bronchial mucosa and submucosa, resulting in a tendency to obstruct small and medium-sized airways. The bronchial circulation can be explored indirectly in cardiac failure by the spirometric response to adrenergic agonists and antagonists administered by inhalation: bronchial vasomotor phenomena explain the symptomatology of cardiac asthma and also seem to play a role in the genesis of the dyspnoea of effort in patients with cardiac failure.

Abstract
Systemic alkalosis was used to detect coronary spasm in 237 patients with infrequent, resting, angina-compatible chest pain. The provocative test was performed without previous coronary arteriography but only in patients with negative submaximal exercise test results. Rapid infusion of alkaline solution followed by maximal hyperventilation raised arterial pH above the 7.65 value necessary for diagnostic significance in 196 (83%) patients. In 24 (12%) of these patients the provocative test induced significant ischemic ST segment changes. In all patients with a positive response, coronary artery disease, which was predominantly vasospastic (19 patients) or atheromatous with a vasospastic contribution (five patients), was demonstrated by coronary arteriography followed, if necessary, by ergot derivative injection. Chest pain and ECG changes were always reversed within 5 minutes by intravenous nitroglycerin. Coronary arteriography was not performed in all patients with a negative response; therefore, the sensitivity of the procedure could not be assessed. However, 36 patients with a negative response to hyperventilation underwent coronary arteriography; 33 (92%) had normal arteriograms and a negative response to ergot derivatives. Hyperventilation appears to be a safe and specific diagnostic procedure in a subset of patients in whom the probability of coronary artery disease may not be judged sufficient to warrant coronary arteriography as a primary diagnostic approach.
