    (2015) UENISHI, Eliza K.; CALDAS, Marcia A.; TSUTSUI, Jeane M.; ABDUCH, Maria C. D.; SBANO, Joao C. N.; KALIL FILHO, Roberto; MATHIAS JR., Wilson
    Background: Diagnosis of cardiac masses is still challenging by echocardiography and distinguishing tumors from thrombi has important therapeutical implications. We sought to determine the diagnostic value of real-time perfusion echocardiography (RTPE) for cardiac masses characterization. Methods: We prospectively studied 86 patients, 23 with malignant tumors (MT), 26 with benign tumors (BT), 33 with thrombi and 6 with pseudotumors who underwent RTPE. Mass perfusion was analyzed qualitatively and blood flow volume (A), blood flow velocity (beta), and microvascular blood flow (A x beta) were determined by quantitative RTPE. Results: Logistic regression models showed that the probability of having a tumor increased by 15.8 times with a peripheral qualitative perfusion pattern, and 34.5 times with a central perfusion pattern, in comparison with the absence of perfusion. Using quantitative RTPE analysis, thrombi group had parameters of blood flow lower than tumor group. A values for thrombi, MT, and BT were 0.1 dB (0.01-0.22), 2.78 dB (1-7) and 2.58 dB (1.44-5), respectively; p < 0.05, while A x beta values were 0.0 dB/s(-1) (0.01-0.14), 2.00 dB/s(-1) (1-6), and 1.18 dB/s(-1) (0.52-3), respectively; p < 0.05. At peak dipyridamole stress, MT had greater microvascular blood volume than BT [A = 4.18 dB (2.14-7.93) versus A = 2.04 dB (1.09-3.55); p < 0.05], but no difference in blood flow [Ax beta = 2.46 dB/s(-1) (1.42-4.59) versus Ax beta = 1.55 dB/s [1] (0.51-4.08); p=NS]. An A value >3.28 dB at peak dipyridamole stress predicted MT (AUC = 0.75) and conferred 5.8-times higher chance of being MT rather than BT. Conclusion: RTPE demonstrated that cardiac tumors have greater microvascular blood volume and regional blood flow when compared with thrombi. Dipyridamole stress was useful in differentiating MT from BT.

    Prognostic Value of Coronary and Microvascular Flow Reserve in Patients with Nonischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy
    (2013) LIMA, Marta F.; MATHIAS JR., Wilson; SBANO, Joao C. N.; CRUZ, Victoria Yezinia de la; ABDUCH, Maria Cristina; LIMA, Marcio S. M.; BOCCHI, Edmar A.; HAJJAR, Ludhmila A.; RAMIRES, Jose A. F.; KALIL FILHO, Roberto; TSUTSUI, Jeane M.
    Background: Coronary and microvascular blood flow reserve have been established as important predictors of prognosis in patients with cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to assess the value of coronary flow velocity reserve (CFVR) and real-time myocardial perfusion echocardiography (RTMPE) for predicting events in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. Methods: One hundred ninety-five patients (mean age 54 +/- 12 years; 66% men) with dilated cardiomyopathy (left ventricular ejection fraction < 35% and no obstructive coronary disease on invasive angiography or multi-detector computed tomography) who underwent dipyridamole stress (0.84 mg/kg over 10 min) RTMPE were prospectively studied. CFVR was calculated as the ratio of hyperemic to baseline peak diastolic velocities in the distal left anterior coronary artery. The replenishment velocity (beta), plateau of acoustic intensity (A(N)), and myocardial blood flow reserve were obtained from RTMPE. Results: Mean CFVR was 2.07 +/- 0.52, mean A(N) reserve was 1.05 +/- 0.09, mean beta reserve was 2.05 +/- 0.39, and mean myocardial blood flow reserve (A(N) x beta) was 2.15 +/- 0.48. During a median follow-up period of 29 months, 45 patients had events (43 deaths and two urgent transplantations). Independent predictors of events were left atrial diameter (relative risk, 1.16; 95% confidence interval, 1.08-1.26; P < .001) and beta reserve <= 2.0 (relative risk, 3.22; 95% confidence interval, 1.18-8.79; P < .001). After adjustment for beta reserve, CFVR and myocardial blood flow reserve no longer had predictive value. Left atrial diameter added prognostic value over clinical factors and left ventricular ejection fraction (chi(2) = 36.8-58.5, P < .001). Beta reserve added additional power to the model (chi(2) = 70.2, P < .001). Conclusions: Increased left atrial diameter and depressed beta reserve were independent predictors of cardiac death and transplantation in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy. Beta reserve by RTMPE provided incremental predictive value beyond that provided by current known prognostic clinical and echocardiographic factors. (J Am Soc Echocardiogr 2013;26:278-87.)

    Hypercholesterolemic diet worst left ventricular function evaluated by echocardiography in rats subjected to an experimental infarct model
    (2012) DOURADO, Paulo M.; TSUTSUI, Jeane M.; CASELLA FILHO, Antonio; LANDIM, Mauricio B.; GALVAO, Tatiana F.; AIELLO, Vera D.; LUZ, Protasio Da; MATHIAS JR., Wilson; CHAGAS, Antonio C.
    Introduction: A better comprehension of the hypercholesterolemic diet role in the set of acute myocardial infarct is fundamental. Objectives: Evaluation of the role of hypercholesterolemic diet in the determination of the hemodynamics patterns by echocardiography. Methods: Sixty three anesthetized rats were subjected to occlusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery and divided in six groups: G1–just normal diet (ND); G2–ND and treatment with rosuvastatim for 30 days began after infarct and G3–ND and 30 days previously to infarct treated with rosuvastatim until 30 days after it; G4 –just hypercholesterolemic diet (HD); G5–HD and treatment with rosuvastatim for 30 days began after infarct and G6 –HD and 30 days previously to infarct treated with rosuvastatim until 30 days after it. Echocardiography was performed using bidimensional image in the paraesternal long axis. The planimetry of the left ventricle areas in the end of the diastole (LVEDA) and systole (LVESA) were realized before the infarct (pre) and 30 days after the infarct (post) . A p value<0.05 was considered significant. Conclusion: The hypercholesterolemic diet worst the hemodynamics parameters–LVEDA and LVESA - in comparison with the normocholesterolemic group treated with rosuvastatim.

    Prognostic value of dobutamine stress myocardial perfusion echocardiography in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease and normal left ventricular function
    (2017) MATTOSO, Angele A. A.; TSUTSUI, Jeane M.; KOWATSCH, Ingrid; CRUZ, Vitoria Y. L.; SBANO, Joao C. N.; RIBEIRO, Henrique B.; KALIL FILHO, Roberto; PORTER, Thomas R.; MATHIAS JR., Wilson
    Objective We sought to determine the prognostic value of qualitative and quantitative analysis obtained by real-time myocardial perfusion echocardiography (RTMPE) in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Background Quantification of myocardial blood flow reserve (MBFR) in patients with CAD using RTMPE has been demonstrated to further improve accuracy over the analysis of wall motion (WM) and qualitative analysis of myocardial perfusion (QMP). Methods From March 2003 to December 2008, we prospectively studied 168 patients with normal left ventricular function (LVF) who underwent dobutamine stress RTMPE. The replenishment velocity reserve (beta) and MBFR were derived from RTMPE. Acute coronary events were: cardiac death, myocardial infarction and unstable angina with need for urgent coronary revascularization. Results During a median follow-up of 34 months (5 days to 6.9 years), 17 acute coronary events occurred. Abnormal beta reserve in >= 2 coronary territories was the only independent predictor of events hazard ratio (HR) = 21, 95% CI = 4.5-99; p<0.001). Both, abnormal beta reserve and MBFR added significant incremental value in predicting events over qualitative analysis of WM and MP (chi(2) = 6.6 and chi(2) = 24.6, respectively; p = 0.001 and chi(2) = 6.6 and chi(2) = 15.5, respectively; p = 0.012, respectively). When coronary angiographic data was added to the multivariate analysis model, beta reserve remained the only predictor of events with HR of 21.0 (95% CI = 4.5-99); p<0.001. Conclusion Quantitative dobutamine stress RTMPE provides incremental prognostic information over clinical variables, qualitative analysis of WM and MP, and coronary angiography in predicting acute coronary events.

    (2015) ALDRIGHI, Jose M.; TSUTSUI, Jeane M.; KOWASTCH, Ingrid; RIBEIRO, Alessandra L.; SCAPINELLI, Alessandro; TAMANAHA, Sonia; OLIVEIRA, Ricardo M.; MATHIAS JR., Wilson
    ObjectivePolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with increased risk for cardiovascular disease. We sought to evaluate the effects of insulin resistance (IR) on myocardial microcirculation and peripheral artery function in patients with PCOS. MethodsWe studied 55 women (28 with PCOS without IR, 18 with PCOS and IR and 11 normal controls) who underwent laboratorial analysis, high-resolution vascular ultrasound and real time myocardial contrast echocardiography (RTMCE). Intima-media thickness (IMT) and brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) were evaluated by vascular ultrasound. The replenishment velocity (), plateau of acoustic intensity (A) and myocardial blood flow reserve (MBFR) were determined by quantitative dipyridamole stress RTMCE. Results reserve in group PCOS+IR was lower than control (2.340.55 vs. 3.60 +/- 0.6; P<0.001) and than PCOS without IR (2.34 +/- 0.55 vs. 3.17 +/- 0.65; P < 0.001). MBFR in patients with PCOS without IR did not differ from those of control (4.59 +/- 1.59 vs. 5.30 +/- 1.64; P =0.22) or from patients with PCOS+IR (4.59 +/- 1.59 vs. 3.70 +/- 1.47; P =0.07). When comparing with control group, patients with PCOS+IR had lower MBFR (5.30 +/- 1.64 vs. 3.70 +/- 1.47; P=0.01). No significant differences were found between control, PCOS without IR and PCOS+IR for FMD (0.18 +/- 0.05, 0.15 +/- 0.04 and 0.13 +/- 0.07; P =NS) or IMT (0.48 +/- 0.05, 0.47 +/- 0.05 and 0.49 +/- 0.07; P=NS). ConclusionWomen with PCOS and IR had depressed and MBFR as demonstrated by quantitative RTMCE, but no alteration in endothelial dysfunction or IMT. PCOS without IR showed isolated depression in reserve, probably an earlier marker of myocardial flow abnormality.

    (2012) ABDUCH, Maria Cristina Donadio; SALGO, Ivan; TSANG, Wendy; VIEIRA, Marcelo Luiz Campos; CRUZ, Victoria; LIMA, Marta; TSUTSUI, Jeane Mike; MOR-AVI, Victor; LANG, Roberto M.; MATHIAS JR., Wilson
    Background: The high and increasing prevalence of Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a serious public health issue. Novel technologies have been used aiming to improve diagnosis and the therapeutic approach. In this context, speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) uses natural myocardial markers to analyze the systolic deformation of the left ventricle (LV). Objective: Measure the longitudinal transmural global strain (GS) of the LV through STE in patients with severe DCM, comparing the results with normal individuals and with echocardiographic parameters established for the analysis of LV systolic function, in order to validate the method in this population. Methods: Seventy-one patients with severe DCM (53 +/- 12 years, 72% men) and 20 controls (30 +/- 8 years, 45% men) were studied. The following variables were studied: LV volumes and ejection fraction calculated by two and three-dimensional echocardiography, Doppler parameters, Tissue Doppler Imaging systolic and diastolic LV velocities and GS obtained by STE. Results: Compared with controls, LV volumes were higher in the DCM group; however, LVEF and peak E-wave velocity were lower in the latter. The myocardial performance index was higher in the patient group. Tissue Doppler myocardial velocities (S', e', a') were significantly lower and E/e' ratio was higher in the DCM group. GS was decreased in the DCM group (-5.5% +/- 2.3%) when compared with controls (-14.0% +/- 1.8%). Conclusion: In this study, GS was significantly lower in patients with severe DCM, bringing new perspectives for therapeutic approaches in this specific population.

    Indeterminate form of Chagas disease: is left ventricular torsional mechanics a clue to subclinical myocardial abnormalities?
    (2017) LIMA, Marcio Silva Miguel; VOOS, Mariana Callil; MATHIAS JR., Wilson; TSUTSUIL, Jeane Mike
    Background Chagas disease (CD) is highly endemic in Latin America, and has been emerging in developed countries. Early diagnosis of left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction, routinely done by echocardiography, is crucial for therapy. Speckle tracking echocardiography allows determination of LV segmental rotations, twist/torsion, and this analysis may disclose an unapparent myocardial contractile deficit in initial stages of CD. Therefore, this study aimed to highlight a possible unapparent myocardial contractile deficit in CD indeterminate form (IF) by a comprehensive torsional mechanics analysis. Methods Patients with CDIF diagnosis, initial chagasic cardiomyopathy (CCMP characterized by ECG abnormalities and LVEF > 0.55), and normal controls were prospectively enrolled, and underwent conventional echocardiogram with images acquisition for STE offline analysis. Target parameters were basal and apical rotations, and calculation of twist and torsion. Results A total of 42 patients were included (CDIF, eight; CCMP, 13; and 21 controls). Chagasic patients had a mean age of 55 years, five (24 %) men, and controls, 50 years, seven (33 %) men. Torsional mechanics analyzes resulted in no significant difference in all parameters studied between groups. Twist in CDIF was 20.8A degrees A +/- 6.5A degrees; CCMP, 19.0A degrees A +/- 3.5A degrees and controls, 19.7A degrees A +/- 3.7A degrees (p = 0.67). Torsion in CDIF was 2.6A degrees A +/- 0.8A degrees; CCMP, 2.4A degrees A +/- 0.6A degrees and controls, 2.4A degrees A +/- 0.5A degrees (p = 0.63). Conclusion Patients with Chagas disease have no abnormalities in torsional mechanics during its indeterminate and initial cardiomyopathy stages.

    Diagnostic Ultrasound Impulses Improve Microvascular Flow in Patients With STEMI Receiving Intravenous Microbubbles
    (2016) MATHIAS JR., Wilson; TSUTSUI, Jeane M.; TAVARES, Bruno G.; XIE, Feng; AGUIAR, Miguel O. D.; GARCIA, Diego R.; OLIVEIRA JR., Mucio T.; SOEIRO, Alexandre; NICOLAU, Jose C.; LEMOS NETO, Pedro A.; ROCHITTE, Carlos E.; RAMIRES, Jose A. F.; KALIL FILHO, Roberto; PORTER, Thomas R.
    BACKGROUND Pre-clinical trials have demonstrated that, during intravenous microbubble infusion, high mechanical index (HMI) impulses from a diagnostic ultrasound (DUS) transducer might restore epicardial and microvascular flow in acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to test the safety and efficacy of this adjunctive approach in humans. METHODS From May 2014 through September 2015, patients arriving with their first STEMI were randomized to either DUS intermittent HMI impulses (n = 20) just prior to emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and for an additional 30 min post-PCI (HMI + PCI), or low mechanical index (LMI) imaging only (n = 10) for perfusion assessments before and after PCI (LMI + PCI). All studies were conducted during an intravenous perflutren lipid microsphere infusion. A control reference group (n = 70) arrived outside of the time window of ultrasound availability and received emergent PCI alone (PCI only). Initial epicardial recanalization rates prior to emergent PCI and improvements in microvascular flow were compared between ultrasound-treated groups. RESULTS Median door-to-dilation times were 82 +/- 26 min in the LMI + PCI group, 72 +/- 15 min in the HMI + PCI group, and 103 +/- 42 min in the PCI-only group (p = NS). Angiographic recanalization prior to PCI was seen in 12 of 20 HMI + PCI patients (60%) compared with 10% of LMI + PCI and 23% of PCI-only patients (p = 0.002). There were no differences in microvascular obstructed segments prior to treatment, but there were significantly smaller proportions of obstructed segments in the HMI + PCI group at 1 month (p = 0.001) and significant improvements in left ventricular ejection fraction (p < 0.005). CONCLUSIONS HMI impulses from a diagnostic transducer, combined with a commercial microbubble infusion, can prevent microvascular obstruction and improve functional outcome when added to the contemporary PCI management of acute STEMI.
