Abstract Background Electrocardiographic (ECG) features on acute phase of Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is recognized to mimic that of acute anterior myocardial infarction (ant AMI). However, the difference of synthesized 18-leads ECG of both diseases was not elucidated. Purpose To elucidate diagnostic performance of 18-leads ECG to distinguish TTS and acute anterior AMI. Methods We firstly enrolled consecutive 40 patients of TTS, and among 500 ant AMI patients, one to two matching was done by their age and gender. Finally, 40+80 patients (74.5±11.2 years, 87 females) were enrolled, and ECG at onset of both group was estimated. Because of multicollinearity, all significant differences were compared by machine learning (Random Forest method). Results Prevalence of Q wave had no difference. Conversely, ST depression in TTS and ST elevation in ant AMI were significant differences in V7–9 leads. T-wave polarity of V3R-V9 leads were significantly different (flat T-wave in TTS and positive in ant AMI). Machine learning revealed T wave polarity in V7 lead had the highest feature importance. Conclusion 18-leads ECG at onset had powerful diagnostic performance to distinguish the two diseases. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Introduction: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and acute anterior myocardial infarction (ant-AMI) show very similar 12-lead electrocardiography (ECG) featured at onset, and it is often difficult to distinguish them without cardiac catheterization. The difference of ECG between them was studied, but the diagnostic performance of machine learning (deep learning) for them had not been investigated. Hypothesis: Deep learning on 12-leads ECG has high diagnostic performance to diagnose TTS and ant-AMI at onset. Methods: Consecutive 50 patients of TTS were one-to-one matched to ant-AMI randomly by their age and gender, and total 100 patients were enrolled. No sinus rhythm patients were excluded. All ECGs were divided into each 12-lead, and 5 heart beats from one lead were extracted. For each lead, 250 ECG waves of TTS/AMI were sampled as 24bit bitmap image, and prediction model construction by convolutional neural network (CNN: transfer learning, using VGG16 architecture) underwent to distinguish the two diseases in each lead. Next, gradient weighted class activation color mapping (GradCam) was performed to detect the degree and position of convolutional importance in the leads. Results: Lead aVR (mean accuracy 0.748), I (0.733), and V1 (0.678) were the top 3 leads with high accuracy. In aVR lead, GradCam showed strong convolution of negative T wave in TTS, and sharp R wave in ant-AMI. In I lead, it spotlighted several parts of ECG wave in ant-AMI. However in TTS, whole shape of the wave, P wave onset, and negative T were invertedly convoluted in TTS. Conclusions: Deep learning was a powerful tool to distinguish TTS and ant-AMI at onset, and GradCam method gave us new insight of the difference on ECG between the two diseases.

Introduction: ST elevation/depression on 12-leads electrocardiography (ECG) at onset was recognized difficult to distinguish Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) and acute anterior myocardial infarction (ant AMI). Diagnostic performance of automatic microvolt-level measurement of the ST levels was not elucidated. Hypothesis: Microvolt-level differences of ST level at J-point on ECG can distinguish TTS and ant AMI in acute phase. Methods: We firstly enrolled consecutive 40 patients of TTS, and among 500 ant AMI patients, one to two random matching was done by their age and gender. Finally, 40+80 patients (74.5±11.2 years, 87 females) were enrolled. ECG at onset of both group was measured by automated system (ECAPs12c: Nihon-Koden). Results: ST level of TTS at J-point in I/II/V4-6 lead was significantly elevated comparing to that of ant AMI. Conversely, Conversely, significant ST depression in aVR and no ST elevation in V1 of TTS was observed in TTS. Logistic regression analysis revealed that ST elevation in I lead and no ST elevation in V1 lead showed high odds ratio and low P value. Conclusions: Automated measurement of microvolt-level difference of ST level at J-point was a powerful tool to distinguish TTS and ant AMI at onset.

Introduction. Rapid diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction is essential for proper treatment and reduction of patient mortality. Electrocardiography plays an important role in its diagnosis. Acute myocardial infarction with ST segment elevation requires urgent reperfusion therapy, that is, primary percutaneous coronary revascularization. A small number of patients with acute myocardial infarction have ST segment depression in one or more leads, whereas ST segment elevation in augmented vector right the electrocardiogram is characteristic for a myocardial infarction without ST elevation, but the clinical course and the severity of disease correspond to the anterior myocardial infarction with ST segment elevation. De Winter T-wave electrocardiography. One of these forms is known as de Winter T-wave pattern, characterized by ST segment depression at the J-point (> 1 mm) in the precordial leads, the absence of ST segment elevation in the precordial leads, high peaked and symmetrical T-waves in the precordial leads and, in most cases, mild ST segment elevation (0.5 mm to 1 mm) in the augmented vector right. These patients have occlusion of the left main coronary artery, occlusion of the proximal segment of the anterior descending artery, or a severe multivessel coronary disease. Patients with this electrocardiographic pattern, which is equivalent to acute myocardial infarction with ST segment elevation, require consideration of emergency reperfusion therapy due to high mortality, compared to other patients with acute myocardial infarction without ST elevation. Primary percutaneous intervention is recommended, or if there is no catheterization laboratory nearby, fibrinolytic therapy may be considered. Because of the lack of clear recommendations, treatment decisions are made individually, from case to case. Conclusion. We need large pro?spective studies with this specific electrocardiographic pattern to provide quick recognition and proper treatment of the anterior myocardial infarction with ST elevation.

Objective: The combination of electrical phenomena and remote myocardial ischemia is the pathophysiological mechanism of ST segment changes in inferior leads in acute anterior myocardial infarction (MI). We investigated the prognostic value of ST segment changes in inferior derivations in patients with first acute anterior MI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: In this prospective single-center analysis, we evaluated the prognostic impact of ST segment changes in inferior derivations on 354 patients with acute anterior MI. Patients were divided into the following 3 groups according to admission ST segment changes in inferior derivations: ST depression (group 1), no ST change (group 2), and ST elevation (group 3). Results: In-hospital multivariate analysis revealed notably high rates of in-hospital death for patients in group 3 compared to patients in group 2 (OR 2.5; 95% CI 1.6-7.6, p < 0.001). Group 1 and group 2 had similar in-hospital and long-term mortality rates. After adjusting for confounding baseline variables, group 3 had higher rates of 18-month mortality (HR 3.3; 95% CI 1.5-8.2, p < 0.001). Conclusion: In patients with a first acute anterior MI treated with primary PCI, ST elevation in inferior leads had significantly worse short-term and long-term outcomes compared to no ST change or ST segment depression.

The Difference

The term ‘acute coronary syndrome’ includes unstable angina, ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The difference between these three syndromes is as follows. In STEMI and NSTEMI, there is evidence of myocardial necrosis, as evidenced by raised cardiac enzymes, specifically, the very sensitive cardiac biomarker troponin. STEMI is diagnosed when the ECG shows persisting ST elevation in an appropriate territory consistent with STEMI whereas, in NSTEMI, there can be any or no ECG changes, or very transient, self-limiting ST elevation. In unstable angina, there is no myocardial necrosis, and troponins are normal. The ECG is as for NSTEMI and often shows no change, ST depression, or T-wave inversion. The prognoses in STEMI and NSTEMI are identical; unstable angina has a better prognosis than either STEMI or NSTEMI.
