Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE It is unclear whether coronary physiology or coronary angiography (CA)-guided strategy is the more preferable approach for deferring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We sought to evaluate the clinical efficacy of various PCI strategies through a network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS/MATERIALS We searched multiple databases for RCTs investigating the impact of the following strategies for the purpose of determining whether or not to defer PCI: fractional flow reserve, instantaneous wave-free ratio, quantitative flow ratio (QFR), and CA. We conducted a network meta-analysis for trial-defined major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), all-cause death, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularization (TLR), and stent thrombosis. We performed a subgroup analysis for those with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). RESULTS Our search identified 12 eligible RCTs including a total of 13,177 patients. QFR-guided PCI was associated with reduced MACE, MI, and TLR compared with CA-guided PCI (relative risk (RR) 0.68; 95 % confidence interval (CI] [0.49 to 0.94], RR 0.58; 95 % CI [0.36 to 0.96], and RR 0.58; 95 % CI [0.38 to 0.91], respectively). There were no significant differences in any pairs for all-cause death, cardiovascular death, or stent thrombosis. QFR was ranked the best in most outcomes. In the subgroup analysis of the ACS cohort, there were no significant differences in MACE between any comparisons. CONCLUSIONS QFR was associated with reduced MACE, MI, and TLR compared with CA, and ranked the best in most outcomes. However, this was not applied in the ACS cohort.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to characterize Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS)-associated inflammation by investigating correlates of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), a surrogate marker of inflammation, and its relation to 1-year mortality in a cohort of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ACS at a single institution. METHODS We performed a single-institution, retrospective, observational study of all-comer ACS patients who underwent PCI and were discharged home before the COVID-19 pandemic between September 23, 2011 and July 31, 2017 for who outcomes data were available. RESULTS NLRhigh group tended to be older, white patients, less likely to smoke, more likely to have a history of heart failure and cardiac arrest, higher creatinine values, lower LVEF, and higher CK-MB (a surrogate for infarct size). Linear regression model demonstrated a strong correlation between increasing NLR and white race (B = 1.103, p = 0.001, hemoglobin (B = -0.30, p < 0.001), peak CK-MB (B = 0.004, p = 0.02), LVEF (B = -0.048, p < 0.001), and serum creatinine (B = 0.47, p = 0.03). There were a total of 87 deaths at one year. NLR > 3.4 was associated with worse one-year survival post-PCI (91.4 % vs. 95.4 %, log-rank p < 0.004), which was confirmed on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Our data confirm the independent prognostic significance of inflammation to mortality after ACS and may provide some insight into the putative benefits of inflammation modulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonhyperemic pressure ratios (NHPRs) have been proposed as alternatives to fractional flow reserve (FFR) without induction of hyperemia. More recently, imaging based-FFR estimation, especially coronary angiography-derived FFR (Angio-FFR) measurement, is proposed to estimate wire-based FFR. However, little is known about the diagnostic performance of these indices against conventional FFR. AIMS We aimed to assess and compare the diagnostic performance of both NHPRs and coronary Angio-FFR against wire-based conventional FFR. METHODS PubMed and Embase databases were systematically searched for peer-reviewed original articles up to 08/2022. The primary outcomes were the pooled sensitivity and specificity as well as the area under the curve (AUC) of the summary receiver-operating characteristic curve of those indices. RESULTS A total of 6693 records were identified after a literature search, including 37 reports for NHPRs and 34 for Angio-FFR. Overall, NHPRs have a lower diagnostic performance in estimating wire-based FFR with an AUC of 0.85 (0.81, 0.88) when compared with Angio-FFR of 0.95 (0.93, 0.97). When all four modalities of NHPRs (iFR, Pd/Pa, DPR, RFR) were compared, those had overlapping AUCs without major differences among each other. Similarly, when the two most commonly used Angio-FFR (QFR, FFR angio ) were compared, those had overlapping AUCs without major differences among each other. CONCLUSION Angio-FFR may offer a better estimation of wire-based FFR than NHPRs. Our results support a wider use of Angio-FFR in the cardiac catheterization laboratory to streamline our workflow for coronary physiologic assessment. CLASSIFICATIONS FFR,, stable ischemic disease and non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome.

Abstract
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) has become the gold standard for invasively assessing the functional significance of coronary artery disease (CAD) to guide revascularization. The amount of evidence supporting the role of FFR in the cardiac catheterization laboratory is large and still growing. However, FFR uptake in the daily practice is limited by a variety of factors such as invasive instrumentation of the coronary artery that requires extra time and need for vasodilator medications for hyperemia. In this review, we describe the details of wire-based alternatives to FFR, providing insights as to their development, clinical evidence, and limitations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to compare the vascular enhancement and radiation dose in preoperative transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) computed tomography (CT) with a reduced contrast medium (CM) using volume scans in 256-multidetector row CT (MDCT) with a standard CM using 64-MDCT. METHODS This study included 78 patients with preoperative TAVI CT with either 64- or 256-MDCT. The CM was injected at 1.5 mL/kg in the 64-MDCT group and 1.0 mL/kg in the 256-MDCT group. We compared vascular enhancement of the aortic root and access routes, image quality (IQ) scores, and radiation dose in both groups. RESULTS Despite the reduced CM (by 33 %) in the 256-MDCT group, the mean vascular enhancement of the right and left subclavian arteries was significantly higher than that in the 64-MDCT group [284 and 267 Hounsfield units (HU) vs. 376 and 359 HU; p < 0.05]; however, no significant differences in the mean vascular enhancement in the ascending aorta, abdominal aorta at the celiac level, and bilateral common femoral arteries were observed between the two groups (p > 0.05 for all). The median IQ scores at the aortic root were higher in the 256-MDCT group than in the 64-MDCT group (3 vs. 4; p < 0.05), and those at the femoral access routes were comparable (4 vs. 4; p = 0.33). The mean effective dose was significantly reduced by 30 % in the 256-MDCT group (23.6 vs. 16.3 mSv; p < 0.05). CONCLUSION In preoperative TAVI CT, volume scans using 256-MDCT provide comparable or better vascular enhancement and IQ with a 30 % reduction in CM and radiation dose than those using 64-MDCT. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Volume scan using 256-MDCT for preoperative TAVI CT may reduce CM and radiation dose in TAVI patients with renal dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The impact of donor transmitted atherosclerosis as assessed by intravascular ultrasound on development and progression of cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) after heart transplantation (HT) remains poorly defined in contemporary practice. In this exploratory analysis, we sought to assess the prognostic role of early qualitative assessment of donor artery morphology using optical coherence tomography (OCT) as a more sensitive imaging modality. METHODS HT recipients were prospectively enrolled for baseline OCT imaging of the left anterior descending coronary artery. OCT findings were classified as normal, homogeneous intimal thickening, and advanced plaque characteristics. The endpoint was a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or new angiographically detectable CAV stratified by the International Society of Heart and Lung Transplantation criteria up to 4 years of follow-up. RESULTS A total of 35 patients underwent baseline OCT of whom 51.4% had normal OCT, 14.3% had homogenous plaque, and 34.3% had advanced characteristics. There were no significant differences in baseline demographics between patients with and without normal morphology. During a mean follow-up of 3.3 ± 0.4 years, the endpoint occurred in 11 patients including 1 death, 7 CAV1, 3 CAV2, and 1 CAV3. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed a significantly higher event rate in patients with advanced characteristics (log-rank p = 0.010). In multivariate analysis, OCT-based plaque morphology was an independent predictor of clinical events (adjusted hazard ratio 4.57, 95% confidence interval 1.50-13.92, p = 0.008) while maximal intimal thickness ≥0.5 mm was not. CONCLUSIONS Early qualitative OCT assessment of donor coronary artery morphology appears to be a reliable marker for predicting future cardiovascular events in HT recipients. Our findings warrant more careful study in a larger cohort.

Abstract
Angina with nonobstructive coronary arteries (ANOCA) is increasingly recognized and may affect nearly one-half of patients undergoing invasive coronary angiography for suspected ischemic heart disease. This working diagnosis encompasses coronary microvascular dysfunction, microvascular and epicardial spasm, myocardial bridging, and other occult coronary abnormalities. Patients with ANOCA often face a high burden of symptoms and may experience repeated presentations to multiple medical providers before receiving a diagnosis. Given the challenges of establishing a diagnosis, patients with ANOCA frequently experience invalidation and recidivism, possibly leading to anxiety and depression. Advances in scientific knowledge and diagnostic testing now allow for routine evaluation of ANOCA noninvasively and in the cardiac catheterization laboratory with coronary function testing (CFT). CFT includes diagnostic coronary angiography, assessment of coronary flow reserve and microcirculatory resistance, provocative testing for endothelial dysfunction and coronary vasospasm, and intravascular imaging for identification of myocardial bridging, with hemodynamic assessment as needed.

Abstract
Centers specializing in coronary function testing are critical to ensure a systematic approach to the diagnosis and treatment of angina with nonobstructive coronary arteries (ANOCA). Management leveraging lifestyle, pharmacology, and device-based therapeutic options for ANOCA can improve angina burden and quality of life in affected patients. Multidisciplinary care teams that can tailor and titrate therapies based on individual patient needs are critical to the success of comprehensive programs. As coronary function testing for ANOCA is more widely adopted, collaborative research initiatives will be fundamental to improve ANOCA care. These efforts will require standardized symptom assessments and data collection, which will propel future large-scale clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with multivessel coronary disease not involving the left main have shown significantly lower rates of death, myocardial infarction (MI), or stroke after CABG. These studies did not routinely use current-generation drug-eluting stents or fractional flow reserve (FFR) to guide PCI. METHODS FAME 3 (Fractional Flow Reserve versus Angiography for Multivessel Evaluation) is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, international, randomized trial involving patients with 3-vessel coronary artery disease (not involving the left main coronary artery) in 48 centers worldwide. Patients were randomly assigned to receive FFR-guided PCI using zotarolimus drug-eluting stents or CABG. The prespecified key secondary end point of the trial reported here is the 3-year incidence of the composite of death, MI, or stroke. RESULTS A total of 1500 patients were randomized to FFR-guided PCI or CABG. Follow-up was achieved in >96% of patients in both groups. There was no difference in the incidence of the composite of death, MI, or stroke after FFR-guided PCI compared with CABG (12.0% versus 9.2%; hazard ratio [HR], 1.3 [95% CI, 0.98-1.83]; P=0.07). The rates of death (4.1% versus 3.9%; HR, 1.0 [95% CI, 0.6-1.7]; P=0.88) and stroke (1.6% versus 2.0%; HR, 0.8 [95% CI, 0.4-1.7]; P=0.56) were not different. MI occurred more frequently after PCI (7.0% versus 4.2%; HR, 1.7 [95% CI, 1.1-2.7]; P=0.02). CONCLUSIONS At 3-year follow-up, there was no difference in the incidence of the composite of death, MI, or stroke after FFR-guided PCI with current-generation drug-eluting stents compared with CABG. There was a higher incidence of MI after PCI compared with CABG, with no difference in death or stroke. These results provide contemporary data to allow improved shared decision-making between physicians and patients with 3-vessel coronary artery disease. REGISTRATION URL: https://www.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The functional SYNTAX score (FSS), which incorporates functional information as assessed by fractional flow reserve (FFR), is a better predictor of outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with less complex coronary artery disease (CAD). OBJECTIVES This study sought to test the prognostic value of the FSS in patients with complex CAD eligible for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS The FAME 3 (Fractional Flow Reserve Versus Angiography for Multivessel Evaluation 3) trial compared FFR-guided PCI with CABG in patients with angiographic 3-vessel CAD. In this prespecified substudy, the angiographic core laboratory calculated the SYNTAX score (SS) and then the FSS by eliminating lesions that were not significant based on FFR. Outcomes in the PCI patients based on the FSS and the SS were compared to each other and to the patients treated with CABG. RESULTS The FSS reclassified more than one-quarter of patients from an SS >22 to an FSS ≤22. In the 50% of PCI patients who had an FSS ≤22, the primary endpoint occurred at a similar rate to patients treated with CABG (P = 0.77). The primary endpoint in patients without functionally significant 3-vessel CAD was similar to the CABG group (P = 0.97). The rate of myocardial infarction and revascularization among all deferred lesions was 0.5% and 3.2%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS By measuring the FSS, one can identify 50% of patients who have a similar outcome at 1 year with PCI compared with CABG. Lesions deferred from PCI based on FFR have a low event rate.

Abstract
Positive ischemia by noninvasive imaging studies often results in nonobstructive disease in cardiac catheterization. In this case, we observed ischemia by nuclear stress test in only the anteroseptal area, and the apex is free of ischemia. Coronary angiogram findings were unremarkable, but intravascular ultrasound confirmed the long length of the myocardial bridge. Further testing with spasm provocation and microvascular testing showed diffuse epicardial spasm in this area of myocardial bridge without microvascular dysfunction. We observed the myocardial bridge but no microvascular dysfunction. This case illustrates the coexistence of spasm in the area of a myocardial bridge and the challenges in the medical management of these patients. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).

Abstract
We describe a setup of time-, spin-, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (tr-SARPES) employing a 10.7 eV (λ = 115.6 nm) pulse laser at a 1 MHz repetition rate as a probe photon source. This equipment effectively combines the technologies of a high-power Yb:fiber laser, ultraviolet-driven harmonic generation in Xe gas, and a SARPES apparatus equipped with very-low-energy-electron-diffraction spin detectors. A high repetition rate (1 MHz) of the probe laser allows experiments with the photoemission space-charge effects significantly reduced, despite a high flux of 1013 photons/s on the sample. The relatively high photon energy (10.7 eV) also brings the capability of observing a wide momentum range that covers the entire Brillouin zone of many materials while ensuring high momentum resolution. The experimental setup overcomes the low efficiency of spin-resolved measurements, which gets even more severe for the pump-probed unoccupied states, and affords the opportunity to investigate ultrafast electron and spin dynamics of modern quantum materials with energy and time resolutions of 25 meV and 360 fs, respectively.

Abstract
Linelike features in TeV γ rays constitute a "smoking gun" for TeV-scale particle dark matter and new physics. Probing the Galactic Center region with ground-based Cherenkov telescopes enables the search for TeV spectral features in immediate association with a dense dark matter reservoir at a sensitivity out of reach for satellite γ-ray detectors, and direct detection and collider experiments. We report on 223 hours of observations of the Galactic Center region with the MAGIC stereoscopic telescope system reaching γ-ray energies up to 100 TeV. We improved the sensitivity to spectral lines at high energies using large-zenith-angle observations and a novel background modeling method within a maximum-likelihood analysis in the energy domain. No linelike spectral feature is found in our analysis. Therefore, we constrain the cross section for dark matter annihilation into two photons to ⟨σv⟩≲5×10^{-28} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 1 TeV and ⟨σv⟩≲1×10^{-25} cm^{3} s^{-1} at 100 TeV, achieving the best limits to date for a dark matter mass above 20 TeV and a cuspy dark matter profile at the Galactic Center. Finally, we use the derived limits for both cuspy and cored dark matter profiles to constrain supersymmetric wino models.

Abstract
Fractional flow reserve (FFR) has become the gold standard for invasively assessing the functional significance of coronary artery disease (CAD) to guide revascularization. The amount of evidence supporting the role of FFR in the cardiac catheterization laboratory is large and still growing. However, FFR uptake in the daily practice is limited by a variety of factors such as invasive instrumentation of the coronary artery that requires extra time and need for vasodilator medications for hyperemia. In this review, we describe the details of wire-based alternatives to FFR, providing insights as to their development, clinical evidence, and limitations.

Abstract
A pulsed sextupole magnet was used for beam injection at the KEK-Photon Factory (KEK-PF). During the top-up injection, oscillation of the stored beam was observed. To investigate this issue, a compact pick-up probe has been developed for measuring peak fields around the zero-magnetic-field region where the stored beam passes. The probe has two coils: a main coil and a background coil. The width and length of the main coil are only 3.2 and 5.8 mm, respectively. The voltage signal from the background coil is subtracted from that of the main coil to obtain an effective voltage signal. The results show that the peak field of a pulsed magnet can be measured with a sufficient accuracy for magnetic field mapping. A magnetic field signal with an amplitude of 2.2 × 10-4 T was measured clearly. The longitudinal field structure that contains the magnetic field generated by the eddy-current effect was observed, which explains the oscillation of the stored beam at the KEK-PF.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are at high risk of lethal arrhythmias, and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are widely used for prevention of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Apical HCM is a phenotype variant of HCM, with hypertrophy predominantly affecting apex, that was initially described 30 years ago. Apical HCM patients may have different clinical prognosis compared with other subsets of HCM. In previous studies, apical HCM patients seem to have a more benign prognosis than other types of HCM. However, little is known about the long-term outcomes of apical HCM patients and there are many unclear points. Moreover, there are few reports about the clinical prognosis in apical HCM patients with an ICD.
Objective
The aim of this study is to identify the difference between the prognosis of apical and the other types of HCM patients with an ICD.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the database of our ICD clinic. All subjects underwent ICD implantation between October 2006 and September 2018. We classified HCM patients into LV outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) and midventricular obstruction (MVO), apical HCM and other non-obstructive types. We divided all the patients into apical and other types of HCM, and examined their background, incidence of appropriate ICD therapies, hospitalization for heart failure, electrical storm and death.
Results
A total of consecutive 64 Japanese HCM patients with an ICD (follow-up period, 86±24 months; age, 65±14 years; male sex, 83%; left ventricular ejection fraction, 56±14%; LV max wall-thickness, 19±7mm; LV apical aneurysm, 9.4%; 5-year risk of SCD, 4.4±2.1) were enrolled in this study. We classified them into 14 apical HCM and 50 other types of HCM patients. The clinical characteristics and major clinical events of these patients are shown in the Table 1. During the follow-up periods, there were no significant differences in the incidence of electrical storm, hospitalization for heart failure and death between the 2 groups (p=0.11; p=0.60; p=0.39). Appropriate ICD therapies occurred in 6 of 14 (43%) patients with apical HCM and 5 of 50 (10%) patients with other types of HCM (p=0.010). The risk factors of patients with apical HCM patients are shown in Table 2.
Conclusions
Appropriate ICD therapy was more prevalent in patients with apical HCM, compared to patients with other types of HCM. Aggressive intervention such as catheter ablation for ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation may be considered in patients with apical HCM and higher score of 5-year risk of SCD. Further studies are needed to clarify the manifestations and long-term outcome of apical HCM patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
For decades, ICD is a well-established therapy for improving prognosis of structural heart disease with severe cardiac dysfunction, and ICD for primary prophylaxis against sudden cardiac death were routinely provided. However, long-term prognosis and clinical course are different in each individual patient with an ICD, and it is moreover unclear what kind of factors might have influences on their clinical outcomes.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to clarify long-term prognosis and predictors of future major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in HFrEF patients with an ICD as primary prophylaxis in Japanese population.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed our ICD database. Patients underwent primary prophylactic ICD implantation from 2006 to 2020 at our institute and met the criteria of ICD recommendation of the latest Japanese guideline. Its requirements are receiving optimal medication therapy, symptomatic heart failure (New York Heart Association classification II or greater), and severe cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 35% or less). Additionally, prior NSVT is considered Class I ICD recommendation. In the case of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), ICD implantation was done at least 40 days after myocardial infarction and at least 90 days after revascularization. MACEs were defined as composite outcome of cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and appropriate ICD therapies.
Results
A total of 148 consecutive patients were enrolled (male, 120 (81%); age, 62.1±11.8 years; LVEF, 23.0±5.86%; left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDd), 67.6±9.26mm; paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), 38 (26%); NSVT, 113 (76%); use of class III antiarrhythmic drugs, 48 (32%); ICM, 49 (33%); cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), 63 (43%)). One hundred twenty patients (81%) were programmed with a shock-only zone over 200 beats per minute. The median follow-up duration was 58.5 months. Among those 148 patients, MACEs were occurred to 60 patients (41%). As a result of dividing all patients into two groups by the occurrence of MACE, LVEF and LVDd were worse in MACE(+) group, whereas, MACE(−) had greater number of co morbidities. The results of cox-regression analysis showed LVDd (HR: 1.07, 95% CI: 1.03–1.12, p<0.001), AF (HR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.56–5.31, p<0.001) and ICM (HR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.00–3.16, p=0.049) were the independent predictors of MACEs (Table). However, initial ICD programming was not related to the occurrence of MACE.
Conclusions
The incidence of MACEs in patients with an ICD and severe HFrEF was substantially high in this Japanese population. Etiology of ICM, left ventricle size, and AF were the potential risk factors for future MACEs.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Triglyceride (TG) deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV) is a novel cardiovascular disorder and was recently encoded as an orphan disease in Europe (ORPHA code: 565612). Defective intracellular lipolysis results in TG accumulation in the myocardium and coronary arteries in TGCV. The myocardial washout rate (WR) of iodine-123-β-methyl-p-iodophenylpentadecanoic acid (BMIPP) is an essential indicator to evaluate myocardial lipolysis in vivo, and decreased WR (<10%) of BMIPP is one of the essential items of diagnostic criteria for TGCV.
Purpose
To clarify clinical findings of TGCV including comorbid conditions and laboratory findings.
Methods
We enrolled 234 patients who underwent BMIPP scintigraphy between September 2015 and July 2019. The distributions of TGCV in each comorbidity, cardiac functions and laboratory findings were investigated.
Results
In total, 104 patients were diagnosed with definitive TGCV. The BMIPP WR of TGCV patients was −1.37±10.6%. TGCV patients had various comorbid conditions, including coronary artery disease (75%), diabetes mellitus (56%), and heart failure (21%). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of TGCV patients was significantly lower than that of non-TGCV patients (38.1±18.0% vs. 43.6±18.9%, p-value=0.026). Moreover, among those who did not take lipid-lowering drugs, there was no difference in the serum TG level between TGCV and non-TGCV patients (TGCV: n=44, 127±84.6 mg/dL, non-TGCV: n=66, 133±70.7 mg/dL, p-value=0.73).
Conclusions
TGCV patients showed multiple coexistence of coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, or heart failure with lower LVEF. Serum TG level was not significantly different between TGCV and non-TGCV patients. Serum TG did not affect the intracellular TG accumulation in TGCV patients directly, and this result was consistent with the pathophysiological hypothesis that the TG accumulation in the myocardial cytoplasm is due to intracellular lipase dysfunction.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Right heart failure following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation is a major complication which significantly impairs functional capacity and quality of life (QoL). Right ventricular (RV) reserve function may limit exercise capacity and QoL in LVAD patients; however, most patients show normal RV haemodynamics at rest.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate whether RV reserve assessed by the changes of RV function during exercise is correlated with exercise capacity and QoL in patients with LVAD.
Methods
We prospectively examined 20 consecutive LVAD patients who were admitted to our university hospital between June 2020 and November 2021 after excluding those who were unable to perform exercise (n=8). All patients underwent invasive exercise right heart catheterisation with simultaneous echocardiography in the supine position. RV stroke work index (RVSWI) was calculated as 0.0136 × stroke volume index × (mean pulmonary artery pressure [mPAP] − right atrial pressure [RAP]) at rest and during exercise. Exercise capacity and QoL were assessed by 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) and peak oxygen consumption (VO2) in cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and the EuroQol visual analogue scale (EQ-VAS), respectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the median ΔRVSWI (RVSWI change from rest to peak exercise) of 1.45 (interquartile range [IQR] −0.31 to 8.25) g/m2.
Results
Patients were predominantly male (75%) and the median age was 47 (IQR 38–60) years. Patients with lower ΔRVSWI had significantly higher change on RAP (P=0.019), but significantly lower change on mPAP (P<0.001) compared to those with higher ΔRVSWI. There were no significant differences in age, gender, primary aetiology of heart failure, type of LVAD devices, or echocardiographic parameters including tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, and RVSWI at rest between the groups. ΔRVSWI during exercise were positively correlated with 6MWD (R=0.69, P<0.01) and peak VO2 (R=0.66, P<0.01) (Figure A). In addition, ΔRVSWI during exercise were positively correlated with the EQ-VAS (R=0.48, P=0.031). On the other hand, there was no significant correlation between RVSWI at rest and 6MWD (R=−0.11, P=0.63) and peak VO2 (R=0.13, P=0.95), and the EQ-VAS (R=0.11, P=0.61). During a median follow-up period of 312 (IQR 176–369) days, adverse events occurred in 3 patients (15%), including 1 death and 2 hospitalisations for major bleeding and right heart failure. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the adverse events more frequently occurred in patients with lower ΔRVSWI compared to those with higher ΔRVSWI (Figure B).
Conclusions
ΔRVSWI was positively correlated with 6MWD, peak VO2 and EQ-VAS irrespective of RV function at rest. Our findings suggest that the assessment of RV reserve function using ΔRVSWI would be useful for risk stratification in patients with LVAD.

Abstract
Transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) with MitraClip (Abbott, Santa Clara, California) is a frequently chosen method for mitral valve repair for patients at high surgical risk. We investigated the impact of frailty on outcomes of patients who underwent TEER. We reviewed the National Inpatient Sample to identify patients that underwent TEER with MitraClip. Frailty was defined using the Johns Hopkins Adjusted Clinical Groups frailty-defining diagnoses indicator. The primary end point was in-hospital mortality. The secondary end points included blood transfusion, respiratory failure, sepsis, length of stay, and total hospitalization cost. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine any association between frailty and primary or secondary outcomes. From January 2016 to December 2017, 10,055 patients underwent TEER in the United States, and 10.6% of them met the criteria for frailty. The frail group showed increased in-hospital mortality (7.04% vs 1.61%, p <0.001) and respiratory failure (3.75% vs 0.95%, p <0.001). Similarly, the frail group had longer lengths of stay (6 vs 2 days, p <0.001) and higher hospitalization costs ($224.8k vs $180.9k, p <0.001). After multivariable logistic regression analysis, frailty was associated with increased in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR] 3.70, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.91 to 7.18, p <0.001), transfusion (OR 1.85, 95% CI 1.07 to 3.19, p = 0.029), respiratory failure (OR 3.56, 95% CI 1.48 to 8.52, p = 0.005), and sepsis (OR 4.17, 95% CI 1.84 to 9.46, p = 0.001). In conclusion, frailty was present in about 10% of patients who underwent TEER from 2016 to 2017. The presence of frailty was associated with worse in-hospital outcomes and greater resource use.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does sperm DNA integrity affect clinical outcomes of ICSI?
Summary answer
Use of high DNA integrity sperm selected by microfluidics sperm sorting results in lower miscarriage rates in the patients of 39-years old and more.
What is known already
High sperm DNA damage is associated with decreased normal fertilization, embryo development and pregnancy rates, and an increased miscarriage rate. On the other hand, oocytes from older women have decreased pregnancy rate, and increased miscarriage rate because of possibility of low ability to repair sperm with DNA fragmentation, and dramatical increases of aneuploidy as women age. A microfluidic sperm selection chamber (MSS, ZyMōt™; DxNow) is a device designed to collect sperm with higher chromatin integrity than density gradient centrifugation (DGC).
Study design, size, duration
Sperm analysis was performed by sperm chromatin dispersion (SCD) test and comet assay in the same sample of 15 cases between October 2020 and February 2021. ICSI outcomes by DGC and MSS were compared with blastocyst development, and pregnancy rates in vitrified-thawed single blastocyst transfers cycle for 518 cases between August 2018 and May 2021.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
SCD test was optimized as a rapid procedure, with sperm showing a halo deemed normal, and those without a halo abnormal. Comet assay results were analyzed using CometScore 2.0, with comparison of %Tail DNA. ICSI outcomes were analyzed using multiple logistics regressions of male and female ages.
Main results and the role of chance
We found a positive correlation between male age and sperm DNA fragmentation rates in raw semen using SCD test (r = 0.70) and Comet assay (r = 0.42). Higher DNA integrity sperm could select using MSS than DGC. In this study with ICSI outcomes, 170 of 318 (53.5%) blastocyst transfers resulted in pregnancy, and 49 (28.8%) subsequently miscarried. The data were classified according to less than or more than 39 years old of male age detected by multiple logistics regressions. In patients with ≥39 years of male age, the female age was significantly higher and blastocyst and pregnancy rates were significantly lower, and the miscarriage rate was significantly higher than <39 years of male age. Since sperm DNA fragmentation increased in accordance with male age, we compared MSS and DGC in the patients with male age ≥39 years. There was no significant difference in blastocyst, pregnancy, and miscarriage rates in female age <39 years. While in ≥ 39 years of female age, blastocyst and pregnancy rates in MSS were not significantly different from DGC, but the miscarriage rate in MSS was significantly lower than in DGC (27.3 vs. 57.1%).
Limitations, reasons for caution
The sample size for each study was small. Analysis of sperm DNA fragmentation and samples in ICSI outcomes were not the same. The retrospective nature of ICSI outcomes in this study does not allow controlling of unknown confounders.
Wider implications of the findings
Sperm DNA fragmentation depended on male age affected fertility outcomes. However, when male age is higher, masking the effect of male age by female age. In this study, we found out the improvement of ICSI outcome by using high DNA integrity sperm selected by MSS in both ≥39 years.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
What was the impact on treatment age in Japan after a subsidy policy change that set age limits for assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment?
Summary answer
The national policy introducing age limits in the subsidy may have promoted ART treatment among younger women.
What is known already
Japan has provided partial subsidies for ART treatment since 2004. To promote treatment at a younger age, the government introduced a subsidy policy in 2016 that set age limits: up to six treatment cycles for women younger than 40 years of age; and up to three cycles for women between 40 and 42 years old. However, two out of 47 prefectures continued to provide subsidies to women aged 43 and older.
Study design, size, duration
We conducted a time series analysis of the utilisation of ART before and after the introduction of age limits, using data from the Japanese national ART registry from 2012 to 2016.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
We described the number of fresh and frozen treatment cycles, comparing the number between 45 prefectures that followed the national policy change (hereafter, prefectures with age limits) and two prefectures that did not (hereafter, prefectures without age limits). Ordinary least squares regression models were used to assess the impact of the policy change by prefecture on the number of ART cycles by women of different ages.
Main results and the role of chance
The overall number of fresh and frozen ART cycles continuously increased in all age groups from 2012 to 2016. Meanwhile, the number of fresh ART cycles among women aged ≤ 36 and 37-39 years in 2016 increased from the previous year by + 4.0% and +1.8% in prefectures with age limits, whereas it decreased in prefectures without age limits: -3.1% and -2.3%, respectively. The number of fresh ART cycles among women aged 40-42 and 43-45 years in prefectures with age limits in 2016 changed by + 1.5% and -0.1%, respectively, whereas it increased considerably in prefectures without age limits by + 9.6% and +65.4%, respectively. Similar changes were shown for the frozen cycles. After controlling for underlying time trends and prefectural characteristics, the policy change significantly increased the number of fresh and frozen ART treatment cycles among women aged ≤ 36 years and decreased the treatment cycles of women aged 40-42 years.
Limitations, reasons for caution
We evaluated the change observed in the year of the policy change and could not assess longer-term trends. Additionally, unobserved factors might have contributed to the change in treatment numbers.
Wider implications of the findings
The introduction of a policy to set an age limit for the partial ART subsidy resulted in a significant increase in treatment even among age groups younger than the boundary groups. The policy change might have conveyed educational messages regarding the benefits of early treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heterogeneity in diagnostic criteria and provocation protocols has posed challenges in understanding the safety of coronary provocation testing with intracoronary acetylcholine (ACh) for the contemporary diagnosis of epicardial and microvascular spasm. OBJECTIVES We examined the safety of testing and subgroup differences in procedural risks based on ethnicity, diagnostic criteria, and provocation protocols. METHODS PubMed and Embase were searched in November 2021 to identify original articles reporting procedural complications associated with intracoronary ACh administration. The primary outcome was the pooled estimate of the incidence of major complications including death, myocardial infarction, ventricular tachycardia/fibrillation, and shock. RESULTS A total of 16 studies with 12,585 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The overall pooled estimate of the incidence of major complications was 0.5% (95% CI: 0.0%-1.3%) without any reports of death. Exploratory subgroup analyses revealed that the pooled incidence of major complications was significantly higher in the studies that followed the contemporary diagnosis criteria for epicardial spasm defined as ≥90% diameter reduction (1.0%; 95% CI: 0.3%-2.0%) but significantly lower in Western populations (0.0%; 95% CI: 0.0%-0.45%). The rate of positive epicardial spasm and the incidence of major complications were similar between provocation protocols using the maximum ACh doses of 100 μg and 200 μg. CONCLUSIONS Intracoronary ACh administration for the contemporary diagnosis of epicardial and microvascular spasm is a safe procedure. Moreover, excellent safety records are observed in Western populations primarily presenting with myocardial ischemia and/or infarction with nonobstructive coronary arteries. This study will help standardize ACh testing to improve clinical diagnosis and ensure procedural safety.

Background
Right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC) as right ventricular function is recently referred as an independent predictor of sudden cardiac death (SCD). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association of RVFAC and appropriate ICD therapy in order to determine the cut-off value of RVFAC.
Methods
Consecutive patients who underwent initial ICD implantation for any diseases except for non-dilated phase hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and channelopathy were retrospectively enrolled from 2012 to 2018. Primary endpoint was an initial appropriate ICD therapy. Transthoracic echocardiographic parameters before ICD implantation were evaluated by one physician and one echocardiologist to be validated. Right ventricular dimensions and function were also measured to be analyzed.
Results
In total, 172 patients (60.3±13.6 years, 131 males) including 63 ischemic cardiomyopathy were enrolled. Ninety patients received an ICD as a secondary prophylaxis. Mean LVEF and RVFAC were 38.3±14.3% and 35.8±8.82%, respectively. There was little correlation between RVFAC and LVEF (correlation coefficient =0.274). Regarding appropriate ICD therapy events, the best cut-off value of RVFAC was 34.8%. The odds ratio of low RVFAC was 2.731 (95%CI: 1.456-5.121, P=0.00174). Secondary prophylactic cohort with low RVFAC showed highest incidence of appropriate ICD therapy as shown in the figure. In multivariate analysis, only low RVFAC is an independent predictor of appropriate ICD therapy (HR: 3.53, 95%CI:1.78- 6.99, P=0.0003).
Conclusion
Low RVFAC seemed independently associated with increased appropriate ICD therapy.

Background
Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) is frequent phenomenon in severe heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients, and causes any negative impacts on such patients. In the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) and Japanese Heart Rhythm Society (JHRS) guidelines, NSVT is regarded as a major component of indication for implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation. However, the long-term prognostic significance of NSVT in severe HFrEF is incompletely resolved.
Purpose
The aim of this study is to investigate the relation between prior NSVT episodes and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) in HFrEF patients with an ICD as primary prophylaxis.
Methods
We retrospectively analyzed our ICD database. Patients underwent primary prophylactic ICD implantation from 2007 to 2018 following ICD recommendation of JCS and JHRS guidelines. Patients met the criteria of receiving optimal medication therapy, symptomatic heart failure (New York Heart Association classification II or greater), and severe cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 35% or less). In the case of ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), implantation of ICD was done at least 40 days after myocardial infarction and at least 90 days after revascularization. Incidence of NSVT episodes were identified through daily electrocardiogram (ECG), Holter ECG or monitor ECG in the hospital. MACEs were defined as composite outcome of cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and appropriate ICD therapies.
Results
A total of 148 consecutive patients were enrolled (male, 120 (81%); age, 62.1±11.8 years; LVEF, 23.0±5.86%; left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDd), 67.6±9.26mm; paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), 38 (26%); NSVT, 113 (76%); use of class III antiarrhythmic drugs, 48 (32%); ICM, 49 (33%); cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), 63 (43%)). The median follow-up duration was 58.5 months. As a result of comparison of the Kaplan-Meier curve between NSVT group (n=113) and non-NSVT group (n=35), cardiovascular death, heart failure hospitalization, and appropriate ICD therapy were not statistically different (Figures). Of those, MACEs were occurred to 60 patients (41%). The results of cox-regression analysis showed LVDd (HR: 1.07, 95% CI: 1.03-1.12, p<0.001), AF (HR: 2.88, 95% CI: 1.56-5.31, p<0.001) and ICM (HR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.00-3.16, p=0.049) were the independent predictors of MACEs, however NSVT was not (Table).
Conclusions
In this Japanese population, the long-term prognosis of severe HFrEF patients is considered to be comparable regardless of prior NSVT episodes. However, the incidence of MACEs in patients with severe HFrEF after ICD implantation was substantially high. ICM, left ventricle size, and atrial fibrillation were the potential risk factors for MACEs as the previous reports showed.
