Background: The myocardial mass at risk (MMAR), representing volume of myocardium distal to culprit lesion, is one of important factors for predicting adverse cardiac event in ischemic heart disease. However, current non-invasive cardiac imaging fails to quantify MMAR in patients with stable coronary artery disease. We have developed a new software calculating MMAR of any designated coronary artery by reconstructing the 3-dimensional-volume-data of cardiac computed tomography (CCT). The novel index, ratio of MMAR to whole left ventricular volume (%LV-MMAR), calculated with this software would be appealing to obtain MMAR objectively. This study aims to compare the %LV-MMAR with Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation (BARI) and modified Albert Provincial Project for Outcome Assessment in Coronary Heart Disease (APPROACH) scores, both of which are invasive angiographic methods widely used to estimate MMAR, in patients with single-vessel disease. Methods: Between April 2008 and March 2014, patients suspected of effort angina pectoris without history of previous myocardial infarction were assessed with CCT and invasive coronary angiography. Of those, 48 patients who were revealed single-vessel disease (left anterior descending artery (LAD): n=22, left circumflex artery (LCX): n=11 and right coronary artery (RCA): n=15) were included in this study. %LV-MMAR was calculated on the software. BARI and modified APPROACH score were calculated and compared with %LV-MMAR. Results: Mean %LV-MMAR was 27.6 [18.2-37.1] %. BARI and APPROACH scores showed a significant correlation (r=0.92, p<0.0001). Also, a significant correlation was observed between %LV-MMAR versus BARI and %LV-MMAR versus APPROACH (r=0.95, p<0.0001 and r=0.9, p<0.0001, respectively). %LV-MMAR showed significant correlation with BARI and APPROACH scores in all vessels; LAD (r=0.95, p<0.0001 and r=0.91, p<0.0001, respectively), LCX (r=0.91, p=0.0001 and r=0.83, p=0.0002, respectively) and RCA (r=0.92, p<0.0001 and r=0.85, p<0.0001, respectively). Conclusions: This study revealed %LV-MMAR, calculated from CCT data on novel software, to be a promising index for estimating perfusion territory noninvasively in good agreement with BARI and modified APPROACH score.

Background: With rise in prevalence of conventional risk factors like diabetes, hypertension, smoking, dyslipidemia and obesity the incidence of coronary artery disease in young patients have increased in the recent decades even in developing world. There have been multiple studies done in Nepal studying the angiographic profile of coronary disease in general population. However, only few studies has been done till date on the angiographic profile in the young population in our country. Aims and Objectives: In this study, we aim to determine the angiographic profile of young patient ≤ 40 years in a tertiary care centre of Nepal. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analytic study was done in Shahid Gangalal National Heart Centre from January 2019 to December 2019. Individuals of both genders with age ≤ 40 years who underwent coronary angiography were included. Results: Total 109 patients were included. Out of 109, 89 were male and 20 were female. The mean age for male was 35.55 ± 4.31 and for female was 38.55 ± 1.90 (P = 0.003). Among 61 (55.96%) patients who had significant coronary artery disease, 33 patients (30.27%) with single vessel disease, 15 patients (13.76%) had double vessel disease, and 13 patients (11.92%) had triple vessel disease. Left anterior descending (LAD) artery was found to be most frequently involved in all patterns of Coronary artery disease (CAD). Smoking was the most common coronary risk factor present in 29.3% of patients followed by hypertension, family history of premature CAD and diabetes in 14.6%, 7.5% and 5.5% of patients respectively. Overall, the prevalence of smoking was more in males (31.4%) than in females (20%). Conclusion: Single vessel disease (SVD) was most prevalent in young patients with significant CAD. LAD is the most commonly involved coronary artery followed by Right coronary artery (RCA) and Left Circumflex (LCX).

Background: Post-systolic shortening (PSS) is myocardial shortening that occurs after end-systole and is considered as a sensitive marker of myocardial ischemia. Empirically, PSS in patients with multivessel disease is smaller than that in those with single vessel disease. Although this seems to be due to a decrease of difference in contraction between the ischemic and the surrounding myocardium, no study has elucidated it. We investigated the relationship between PSS and the difference of contraction between the ischemic and surrounding myocardium in an animal model which underwent left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) occlusion (single vessel disease model) followed by left circumflex coronary artery (LCx) occlusion (multivessel disease model). Methods: In 7 open-chest dogs, left ventricular short-axis images (GE Vivid E9) and hemodynamic data were acquired at 3 conditions: (1) at baseline, (2) during LAD occlusion, and (3) during both LAD and LCx occlusion. Circumferential strains were analyzed in 6 segments by speckle tracking software. The amplitude of PSS (ε PSS ) and end-systolic strain (ε ES ) were measured and the difference of ε ES between a segment perfused by the LAD and the average of the other 5 segments was calculated (Δε ES ). Results: In the LAD segment, dyskinetic motion and PSS occurred during LAD occlusion but they were paradoxically attenuated during both LAD and LCx occlusion. ε PSS significantly correlated with Δε ES (r=0.95, p<0.05). Although ε PSS significantly decreased during both occlusion compared to LAD occlusion, ε PSS corrected by Δε ES (ε PSS /Δε ES ) did not decrease (figure). Conclusions: PSS in the ischemic myocardium was attenuated when the surrounding myocardium also became ischemic. The difference of contraction between the ischemic and the surrounding myocardium at end-systole seems to be a determinant of the amplitude of PSS. A parameter ε PSS /Δε ES may be useful for assessing ischemia in patients with multivessel disease.

Abstract OBJECTIVES Female gender is reported as an independent risk factor for a poor outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting. We analysed the influence of gender on surgical outcome in patients with single-vessel disease undergoing minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB). METHODS From January 1998 to December 2016, a total of 607 consecutive patients with single-vessel disease (31.9% women) underwent MIDCAB at our institution. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) were recorded during a median follow-up period of 8.0 years. Survival time was estimated for all patients and after applying propensity score matching (138 women vs 138 men). Multivariable Cox regression analysis identified risk factors predicting a long-term mortality rate. RESULTS In women, a longer surgical time (125 vs 113 min; P &lt; 0.001) and a higher transfusion rate were recorded (13.0% vs 5.1%; P = 0.001) with similar rates of in-hospital deaths (1.0% vs 0.5%; P = 0.60) and MACCE (1.5% vs 0.7%; P = 0.39). Survival and MACCE-free survival during the follow-up period did not differ significantly between genders (P = 1.0, P = 0.36). Survival and MACCE-free survival rates after 5 years were 94% and 90% in women compared to 91% and 86% in men. Propensity score matching demonstrated improved long-term survival rates in women (P = 0.029). Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, postoperative atrial fibrillation and prolonged intensive care unit stay were associated with long-term deaths for both genders, whereas obesity, former myocardial infarction and preoperative atrial fibrillation were significant risk factors in men. CONCLUSIONS Female patients showed no adverse outcomes after MIDCAB, although risk factors were gender-specific. Overall, MIDCAB demonstrated excellent short- and long-term results as a treatment for single-vessel disease in both genders.
