Background: In pediatric myocarditis, the relationship between cardiac remodeling with initial cardiac function remains uncertain. The authors hypothesized that cardiac remodeling in viral myocarditis is not associated with initial cardiac function. Objective: The primary objective is to determine an association between cardiac remodeling with initial cardiac function, and the secondary aim is to study the factors that influence cardiac remodeling. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study of children under 15 years old, clinically diagnosed as presumed acute viral myocarditis and treated at Ramathibodi Hospital between January 2002 and June 2017. Results: Twenty-three patients were enrolled. Patients had a median age of two years (25 days-14.5 years), and 15 (65%) patients were female. The most common presenting symptoms were respiratory, cardiac, and gastrointestinal symptoms, respectively. The various supportive treatments included Dobutamine (80%), intravenous immunoglobulin (86%), and mechanical ventilator usage (80%). Fifteen patients (65%) survived at discharge, six (25%) expired, and two (9%) were referred to another institution for cardiac transplantation. Nineteen patients (83%) had an initial left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of less than 55%. In this group, eight (40%) patients had completed cardiac remodeling during the follow-up period. The authors found that those with initial mild-to-moderate systolic dysfunction had a better chance for complete remodeling as compared with those who had an initial severe systolic dysfunction. Factor associated with incomplete cardiac remodeling was dopamine usage (OR 0.06, 95% CI 0.0049 to 0.7345, p=0.028). Conclusion: Initial cardiac function is important and associated with complete cardiac remodeling. Those with initial mild-to-moderate systolic dysfunction have better remodeling and recovery than the one with initial severe systolic dysfunction.

Background: Although rare, myocarditis in the pediatric population is a disease process that carries significant morbidity and mortality. Prior to the SARS-CoV-2 related (COVID-19) pandemic, enteroviruses were the most common cause of classic myocarditis. However, since 2020, myocarditis linked to multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is now common. In recent months, myocarditis related to COVID-19 vaccines has also been described. This study aims to compare these three different types of myocarditis with regards to clinical presentation, course, and outcomes. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included all patients <21 years of age hospitalized at our institution with classic viral myocarditis from 2015-2019, MIS-C myocarditis from 3/2020-2/2021 and COVID-19 vaccine-related myocarditis from 5/2021-6/2021. We compared demographics, initial symptomatology, treatment, laboratory data, and echocardiogram findings. Results: Of 201 total participants, 43 patients had classic myocarditis, 149 had MIS-C myocarditis, and 9 had COVID-19 vaccine-related myocarditis. Peak troponin was highest in the classic myocarditis group, whereas the MIS-C myocarditis group had the highest recorded brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). There were significant differences in time to recovery of normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) for the three groups: nearly all patients with MIS-C myocarditis (n=139, 93%) and all patients with COVID-19 vaccine-related myocarditis (n=9, 100%) had normal LVEF at the time of discharge, but a lower proportion of the classic myocarditis group (n=30, 70%) had a normal LVEF at discharge (p<0.001). Three months post-discharge, 18 of 40 children (45%) in the classic myocarditis group still required heart failure treatment, whereas only one of the MIS-C myocarditis patients and none of the COVID-19 vaccine-associated myocarditis patients did. Conclusions: Compared to those with classic myocarditis, those with MIS-C myocarditis had more significant hematologic derangements and worse inflammation at presentation, but had better clinical outcomes, including rapid recovery of cardiac function. Patients with COVID-19 vaccine-related myocarditis had similar clinical presentation to patients with classic myocarditis, but their pattern of recovery was similar to those with MIS-C, with prompt resolution of symptoms and improvement of cardiac function. Long-term follow-up should focus on cardiac and non-cardiac consequences of myocarditis associated with COVID-19 illness and vaccination. Key Words: MIS-C, myocarditis, COVID-19, mRNA vaccine

Reverse takotsubo cardiomyopathy is the rarest variant of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. We present a case of reverse takotsubo cardiomyopathy presenting as abdominal pain likely due to non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia. A 58-year-old female presented with abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea for 2 days. Upon presentation, she was normotensive but tachycardic. Her lactic acid level was 2.8 mmol/L and troponin-T was 0.62 ng/ml. The electrocardiogram showed non-specific ST changes. CT scan of abdomen revealed bowel wall thickening in transverse colon and splenic flexure. Patient was started on aggressive intravenous fluid therapy for possible infectious colitis.The next day, patient started becoming progressively more dyspneic, hypoxic, and hypotensive. A chest X-ray at that time showed signs of severe congestive heart failure. Echocardiogram revealed left ventricular ejection fraction of 20% with akinesis of proximal and mid-ventricular walls. Patient was intubated for hypoxic respiratory failure and started on milrinone infusion for acutely depressed cardiac function. Inotropes were weaned off the next day, and she was successfully extubated on day 4. Subsequently, gastrointestinal symptoms resolved. Cardiac catheterization was performed later during the hospitalization that showed normal coronary arteries. Repeat echocardiogram done 3 months later showed return of cardiac function to normal.

Abstract Background Patients with myocarditis often present with angina pectoris despite unobstructed coronary arteries. The underlying pathophysiological mechanism of angina in these patients remains to be elucidated. Coronary artery spasm is a well-known cause of angina in patients with unobstructed coronary arteries. In this study, we sought to assess the frequency of coronary vasomotor disorders in patients with biopsy-proven viral myocarditis. Methods In total, 700 consecutive patients who underwent endomyocardial biopsy for suspected myocarditis between 2008 and 2018 were retrospectively screened. Of these patients, viral myocarditis was confirmed in 303 patients defined as histological/immunohistological evidence of myocardial inflammation and presence of viral genome confirmed by PCR. Of these patients, 34 patients had angina despite unobstructed coronary arteries and underwent intracoronary acetylcholine (ACh) provocation testing in search of coronary spasm. Epicardial spasm was defined as acetylcholine-induced reproduction of the patient's symptoms associated with ischemic ECG changes and &gt;90% epicardial vasoconstriction. Microvascular spasm was defined as symptom reproduction and ECG changes in the absence of significant epicardial vasoconstriction. Results Patients were 49±16 years old, 62% were male and left ventricular ejection fraction was 54±16%. Most frequent viruses were parvovirus B19 (PVB19, 59%) and human herpes virus 6 (HHV6, 26%), 2 patients had combined PVB19/HHV6 infection and 3 patients other herpesviruses (CMV, EBV, VZV). Epicardial spasm was observed in 10 patients (29%) during ACh testing and microvascular spasm was found in 11 patients (32%). The rate of coronary spasm (epicardial and microvascular) was higher in the PVB19 subgroup compared to HHV6 (80% vs. 33%, p=0.031). In particular, there was a higher prevalence of microvascular spasm in PVB19 compared to HHV6 (45% vs. 0%, p=0.018). Conclusion We observed a high prevalence of microvascular and epicardial spasm in patients with biopsy-proven viral myocarditis suggesting coronary spasm as a potential underlying mechanism for angina in these patients. Microvascular spasm was most often observed in patients with PVB19-associated myocarditis. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: Foundation.

Aims The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether yoga training in addition to standard medical therapy can improve cardiac function and reduce N terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT pro BNP) in heart failure (HF). Methods 130 patients were recruited and randomized into two groups: Control Group (CG) ( n = 65), Yoga Group (YG). In YG, 44 patients and in CG, 48 patients completed the study. Cardiac function using left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), myocardial performance index (Tei index), and NT pro BNP, a biomarker of HF, was assessed at baseline and after 12 weeks. Result Improvement in LVEF, Tei index, and NT pro BNP were statistically significant in both the groups. Furthermore, when the changes in before and after 12 weeks were in percentage, LVEF increased 36.88% in the YG and 16.9% in the CG, Tei index was reduced 27.87% in the YG and 2.79% in the CG, NT pro BNP was reduced 63.75% in the YG and 10.77% in the CG. The between group comparisons from pre to post 12 weeks were significant for YG improvements (LVEF, P < 0.01, Tei index, P < 0.01, NT pro BNP, P < 0.01). Conclusion These results indicate that the addition of yoga therapy to standard medical therapy for HF patients has a markedly better effect on cardiac function and reduced myocardial stress measured using NT pro BNP in patients with stable HF.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background Plasma levels and N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT- proBNP), a cardiac neurohormone released in response to increased ventricular stress, represent an important predictor of clinical outcomes and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction; Although, its diagnostic and prognostic role in patients with acute myocarditis is not completely established; Our aim was to evaluate the relationship of BNP levels and LV ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with myocarditis; Methods Data from patients (pts) discharged with the diagnosis of myocarditis, from 2008 and 2018 were retrospectively analysed. Results 62 pts were included. Mean age was 39.7 17 years and 89% (58 patients) were men. Plasma levels of NT-proBNP measured at admission ranged from 24 to 3110 pg/mL (median 514, IQR 947), and exceeded upper normal levels in 51 pts (82%). This values positively correlated with C- reactive protein (CRP) (p= 0.005, r = 0.36), leucocytes (p = 0.03, r= 0.37) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (p= 0.05, r= 0.35), but not with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (p= 0.829). Higher levels of BNP were associated with higher troponin peak levels but not with increased mortality (p = 0.811), need of inotropic support (p= 0.059) or arrhythmic events (p= 0.130). Inflammatory parameters were significantly increased when BNP&gt; 514 pg/mL vs BNP &lt;514 pg/mL (CRP 7.2 vs 4 mg/dL, p= 0.008). This relationship was maintained at BNP &gt; 900. LVEF was comparable in both groups (p = 0.938); In this population, the magnitude of recovery of the NT- proBNP values (variation between NT-proBNP at admission and discharge) strongly correlated with the magnitude of the inflammatory markers at admission (all p &lt; 0,005) Conclusion In patients with acute myocarditis, there is a significant relationship between NT-proBNP levels and inflammation (as measured by leucocytes, NLR or CRP), but not with LVEF; Despite the limitation of a small sample size, we could hypothesize that NTproBNP in this subset of patients appears to be regulated not only by hemodynamic changes but also by the underlying systemic inflammatory process and, therefore, it interpretation should take that into account;

Stat Pathway

The sympathetic nervous system and proinflammatory cytokines are believed to play independent roles in the pathophysiology of heart failure. However, the recent identification of Epac (exchange protein activated by cyclic AMP), a new cyclic AMP-binding protein that directly activates Rap1, have implicated that there may be a potential cross talk between the sympathetic and cytokine signals. In order to examine the role of Epac in cytokine signal to regulate cardiac function, we have generated transgenic mice expressing the human Epac1 gene under the control of alpha-cardiac myosin heavy chain promoter (Epac1-TG), and examined their response in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiac dysfunction, a well established model for sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction. Sepsis-induced cardiac dysfunction results from the production of proinflammatory cytokines. At baseline, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was similar (TG vs. NTG, 67±1.7 vs. 69±2.1%, n =7–9). The degree of cardiac hypertrophy (LV(mg)/tibia(mm)) was also similar at 3 months old (TG vs. NTG 4.0±0.1 vs. 4.2±0.1, n =5–6), but it became slightly but significantly greater in Epac1-TG at 5 month old (TG vs. NTG 4.9±0.1 vs. 4.4±0.1, p< 0.05, n =5–7). LPS (5mg/kg) elicited a significant and robust reduction of LVEF in both Epac1-TG and NTG, but the magnitude of this decrease was much less in Epac1-TG at 6 hr after injection (TG vs. NTG 48±2.4 vs. 57±1.8%, p< 0.01, n =6–9). At 24 hr after injection, cardiac function was restored to the baseline in both Epac1-TG and NTG. We also examined the activation of JAK-STAT pathway at 24 hr after injection. The tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1 (Tyr701) and STAT3 (Tyr705) in LV, which is an indicator of STAT activation, was reduced to a greater degree in Epac1-TG by 31±8.8% ( p< 0.05, n =4) and 29±5.9% ( p< 0.05, n =7), respectively, relative to that in NTG. Taken together, Epac1 protects the heart from the cytokine-induced cardiac dysfunction, at least in part, through the inhibition of the JAK-STAT pathway, suggesting the beneficial role played by sympathetic signal to antagonize proinflammatory cytokine signal in heart failure.

Heart failure (HF) characterized by cardiac remodeling is a condition in which inflammation and fibrosis play a key role. Dietary supplementation with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) seems to produce good results. In fact, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties and different cardioprotective mechanisms. In particular, following their interaction with the nuclear factor erythropoietin 2 related factor 2 (NRF2), the free fatty acid receptor 4 (Ffar4) receptor, or the G-protein coupled receptor 120 (GPR120) fibroblast receptors, they inhibit cardiac fibrosis and protect the heart from HF onset. Furthermore, n-3 PUFAs increase the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), reduce global longitudinal deformation, E/e ratio (early ventricular filling and early mitral annulus velocity), soluble interleukin-1 receptor-like 1 (sST2) and high-sensitive C Reactive protein (hsCRP) levels, and increase flow-mediated dilation. Moreover, lower levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and serum norepinephrine (sNE) are reported and have a positive effect on cardiac hemodynamics. In addition, they reduce cardiac remodeling and inflammation by protecting patients from HF onset after myocardial infarction (MI). The positive effects of PUFA supplementation are associated with treatment duration and a daily dosage of 1–2 g. Therefore, both the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) define dietary supplementation with n-3 PUFAs as an effective therapy for reducing the risk of hospitalization and death in HF patients. In this review, we seek to highlight the most recent studies related to the effect of PUFA supplementation in HF. For that purpose, a PubMed literature survey was conducted with a focus on various in vitro and in vivo studies and clinical trials from 2015 to 2021.

Background: we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the efficacy of exercise training on cardiac function and circulating biomarkers outcomes among women with breast cancer (BC) receiving anthracycline or trastuzumab-containing therapy. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and Scopus were searched. The primary outcome was change on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Secondary outcomes included diastolic function, strain imaging and circulating biomarkers. Results: Four RCTs were included, of those three were conducted during anthracycline and one during trastuzumab, involving 161 patients. All trials provided absolute change in LVEF (%) after a short to medium-term of treatment exposure (≤6 months). Pooled data revealed no differences in LVEF in the exercise group versus control [mean difference (MD): 2.07%; 95% CI: −0.17 to 4.34]. Similar results were observed by pooling data from the three RCTs conducted during anthracycline. Data from trials that implemented interventions with ≥36 exercise sessions (n = 3) showed a significant effect in preventing LVEF decline favoring the exercise (MD: 3.25%; 95% CI: 1.20 to 5.31). No significant changes were observed on secondary outcomes. Conclusions: exercise appears to have a beneficial effect in mitigating LVEF decline and this effect was significant for interventions with ≥36 exercise sessions.

The aim of the study was to investigate the features of clinically suspected myocarditis complicated by the left ventricular systolic dysfunction development. 93 patients with clinically suspected myocarditis were examined. The average age was 36.63 ± 1.15 years. In 43.01 % of patients the disease was accompanied by a decrease in left ventricular systolic function. In the group of patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction in comparison with those with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, a significantly lower proportion of men (75 % versus 81 %, respectively, χ2 = 9.3, p < 0,01) and a higher average group age (40.7 ± 1.87 versus 33.6 ± 1.3 years, respectively, p <  0,01) were revealed. The course of the disease in patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction was characterized by a more frequent development of rhythm disturbances (65 % versus 43.3 %, respectively, χ2  = 4.3, p  < 0,05) and a higher heart rate at admission (94.5 (75‒100) and 85 (70‒89) beats per minute, respectively, p = 0.006). The structural and functional state of the heart according to echocardiography in patients with a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction versus comparison group was characterized by larger heart chambers sizes, more pronounced violations of local left ventricular contractility, more frequent involvement of the right ventricle in the pathological process (56.3  % versus 22.2  %, respectively, χ2   =  6.4, p  < 0,05).
