We aimed to investigate the predictive value of 24 h blood pressure (BP) patterns on adverse cardiovascular (CV) outcome in the initially untreated hypertensive patients during long-term follow-up. This study included 533 initially untreated hypertensive patients who were involved in this study in the period between 2007 and 2012. All participants underwent laboratory analysis, 24 h BP monitoring, and echocardiographic examination at baseline. The patients were followed for a median period of nine years. The adverse outcome was defined as the hospitalization due to CV events (atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, myocardial revascularization, heart failure, stroke, or CV death). During the nine-year follow-up period, adverse CV events occurred in 85 hypertensive patients. Nighttime SBP, non-dipping BP pattern, LV hypertrophy (LVH), left atrial enlargement (LAE), and LV diastolic dysfunction (LV DD) were risk factors for occurrence of CV events. However, nighttime SBP, non-dipping BP pattern, LVH, and LV DD were the only independent predictors of CV events. When all four BP pattern were included in the model, non-dipping and reverse dipping BP patterns were associated with CV events, but only reverse-dipping BP pattern was independent predictor of CV events. The current study showed that reverse-dipping BP pattern was predictor of adverse CV events independently of nighttime SBP and LV remodeling during long-term follow-up. The assessment of BP patterns has very important role in the long-time prediction in hypertensive population.

Abstract Background Mitral regurgitation (MR) is commonly observed following acute myocardial infarction (MI). Localised left ventricular (LV) remodelling in the region of papillary muscles together with impaired myocardial contractility promote MR. There is a paucity of long-term follow-up studies to determine whether the severity of MR observed post-MI, changes with time. Purpose This study retrospectively followed up patients with MR detected following acute MI (AMI) to investigate changes in MR severity with time and assess for pre-discharge predictors of MR regression or progression. Methods Clinical records of 1000 patients admitted with AMI between 2016 and 2017 to a single centre were retrospectively interrogated. One hundred and nine patients met the inclusion criteria of MR on pre-discharge transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and follow-up TTE scans. Echocardiographic parameters were investigated to determine predictors of progression or regression at follow-up. Patients were divided according to those who had early follow-up TTE (within 1-year) and late follow-up TTE (beyond 1-year). Results Early follow-up TTE was performed in 73 patients at a median of 6 (IQR 3–9) months. Patients had a mean age of 69±13 years and were predominantly male 50/73 (68%). At baseline, relative MR severities were: 49/73 (67%) mild MR, 23/73 (32%) moderate MR and 1 (1%) severe MR. At follow-up, MR had completely resolved in 18/73 (23%) patients, while 39/73 (53%) had mild MR, 15/73 (21%) moderate MR and 1 (1%) severe MR. Compared to patients with no resolution of MR, those with completel resolution were younger (mean age 62±16 vs 72±11 years; p=0.015) but there were no other significant differences between the groups. Resolution at early follow-up did not significantly influence long-term mortality rates. Late follow-up TTE was performed in 69 patients at a median 2.4 (IQR 2–3.2) years. Pre-discharge, 49/69 (71%) patients had mild MR and 20/69 (29%) moderate MR. At follow-up, MR had completely resolved in 18/69 (26%), and amongst patients with persistent MR, proportion of severities were: 37/69 (54%) mild MR, 11/69 (16%) moderate MR and 3/69 (4%) severe MR. Patients with progression of mild MR were more likely to have lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF: 47±15 vs 57±12%; p=0.010) and greater indexed left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESVi: 37±23 vs 25±14 ml/m2; p<0.001) on pre-discharge TTE. Resolution of MR at late follow-up was associated with a reduction in long-term mortality [deaths: 2/55 (3%) vs 3/14 (21%); p=0.022] at a mean follow-up of 4.2 years from MI. Conclusion MR observed following AMI completely resolved in approximately one-quarter of patients at 6-month and 2-year follow-up. Progression of mild MR at long-term follow-up appears to be associated with increased mortality and is predicted by lower LVEF and greater LVESVi pre-discharge.

Abstract Background/Introduction Left ventricular remodeling (LVR) remains common and is associated with outcomes in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Left atrial (LA) volume has been described as a predictor of outcomes in the latter population. Purpose To investigate the association between LA mechanical function using speckle tracking imaging and LVR at follow-up in STEMI patients. Methods Baseline 3D transthoracic echocardiograms were performed in 121 STEMI patients. LA global longitudinal strain was reported separately for the reservoir (LASr), conduit (LAScd), and contraction (LASct) phases. Follow-up echocardiograms were performed at 6 months. Results Mean age was 58.3±12.5 years and 98 (81%) were men. Baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was 46.8% [41.0, 52.9] and significantly improved to 52.1% [45.8, 57.0] at follow-up, (p<0.001). A lower LASct was associated with a significant dilation of left ventricle at follow-up (%end-diastolic volume increase: −1.9% [−11.0, 15.2] in the two higher LASct tertiles group vs. 19.2% [5.0, 34.3] in the lower LASct tertile group, p=0.001). A higher %end-systolic volume increase at follow-up was associated with lower LASct as well: 12.6% [−16.2, 39.8] in the lower LASct group vs. −6.8% [−23.6, 14.4] in the two higher LASct tertiles group (p=0.004). Regarding LVEF, a low LVEF at follow-up was associated with the worst tertile of all LA strains (LASr, p=0.002; LAScd, p=0.01 and LASct, p=0.01). Conclusion(s) The three components of baseline LA strain were associated with LVEF at follow-up in patients with STEMI. Some of these components were also significantly associated with lower LVEF at baseline or predictive of a significant increase in left ventricular volumes during follow-up, indicating LVR.
