    (2016) LOPES, Renato D.; PAOLA, Angelo Amato Vicenzo de; LORGA FILHO, Adalberto Menezes; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano; ANDRADE, Jadelson; MATTOS, Luiz Alberto Piva e; BERNARDEZ-PEREIRA, Sabrina; BERWANGER, Otavio; FIGUEIREDO, Marcio Jansen de Oliveira
    Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an important and growing public health problem worldwide, but data about its actual prevalence, therapeutic management, and clinical outcomes in middle-to low-income countries are scarce. Design The First Brazilian Cardiovascular Registry of Atrial Fibrillation (the RECALL study) will assess demographic characteristics and evidence-based practice of a representative sample of patients with AF in Brazil. The prospective, multicenter registry has a planned sample size of around 5,000 patients at approximately 80 sites. Eligibility criteria include age > 18 years and permanent, paroxysmal, or persistent AF documented by electrocardiogram, 24-hour Holter monitoring, or device interrogation. Patients will be followed up through 1 year after enrollment. Information on laboratory tests, echocardiographic data, medication use, and clinical outcomes will be obtained. Various aspects of the population will be described, including demographic characteristics; antithrombotic therapies; antiarrhythmic agents; level of control of international normalized ratio (by average time within the therapeutic range) among patients using vitamin K antagonists; rates of warfarin discontinuation; outcomes such as death, stroke, systemic embolism, and major bleeding within 1 year after enrollment in the study; and rates of electrical cardioversion, percutaneous ablation of AF, ablation of the atrioventricular junction, and pacemaker/cardioverter-defibrillator implantation. Summary RECALL is the first prospective, multicenter registry of AF in Brazil. This study will provide important information about demographics, practice patterns, treatments, and associated outcomes in patients with AF. The results of this registry will also allow Brazilian data to be put in perspective with other AF registries across the world and provide opportunities to improve care of patients with AF in Brazil.

    Acute physical and mental stress resulted in an increase in fatty acids, norepinephrine, and hemodynamic changes in normal individuals: A possible pathophysiological mechanism for hypertension-Pilot study
    (2021) MOTTA, Jasiane Motta e; SOUZA, Ludmila Neves; VIEIRA, Bianca Bassetto; DELLE, Humberto; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano; EGAN, Brent M.; LOPES, Heno Ferreira
    Hypertension is often associated with metabolic changes. The sustained increase in sympathetic activity is related to increased blood pressure and metabolic changes. Environmental stimuli may be related to increased sympathetic activity, blood pressure, and metabolic changes, especially in genetically predisposed individuals. The aim of this study was to evaluate the response of fatty acids to physical and mental stress in healthy volunteers and the hemodynamic, hormonal, and metabolic implications of these stimuli. Fifteen healthy individuals with a mean age of 31 +/- 7 years, of both sexes, were evaluated. They were assessed at baseline and after combined physical and mental stress (isometric exercise test, Stroop color test). Blood samples were collected at baseline and after stimulation for glucose, insulin, fatty acid, and catecholamine levels. Blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance, and distensibility of the large and small arteries were analyzed. The data obtained at baseline and after stimuli were from the same individual, being the control itself. Compared to baseline, after physical and mental stress there was a statistically significant increase (p < .05) in free fatty acids, norepinephrine, diastolic blood pressure, peripheral vascular resistance, and distensibility of the large and small arteries. In conclusion, the combination of physical and mental stress raised fatty acids, norepinephrine, diastolic blood pressure, and peripheral vascular resistance in healthy individuals.

    Hypertension, Blood Pressure Variability, and Target Organ Lesion
    (2016) IRIGOYEN, Maria-Claudia; ANGELIS, Katia De; SANTOS, Fernando dos; DARTORA, Daniela R.; RODRIGUES, Bruno; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano
    Hypertensive patients have a higher risk of developing health complications, particularly cardiovascular (CV) events, than individuals with normal blood pressure (BP). Severity of complications depends on the magnitude of BP elevation and other CV risk factors associated with the target organ damage. Therefore, BP control and management of organ damage may contribute to reduce this risk. BP variability (BPV) has been considered a physiological marker of autonomic nervous system control and may be implicated in increased CV risk in hypertension. This review will present some evidence relating BPV and target organ damage in hypertension in clinical and experimental settings.

    High Muscle Sympathetic Nerve Activity Is Associated With Left Ventricular Dysfunction in Treated Hypertensive Patients
    (2013) SOUZA, Silvia Beatriz Cavasin de; ROCHA, Juraci Aparecida; CUOCO, Marco Antonio Romeu; GUERRA, Grazia Maria; FERREIRA-FILHO, Julio Cesar; BORILE, Suellen; KRIEGER, Eduardo Moacyr; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz Aparecido; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano
    The presence of asymptomatic left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in hypertensive patients can be associated with the development of cardiac events. The increase in sympathetic activity may be 1 of the mechanisms that predisposes to this outcome. In this study, we analyzed 2 hypotheses: (i) whether sympathetic activity is higher in the presence of LVDD, independent of blood pressure control and (ii) whether different classes of LVDD have a different effect on sympathetic activity. After analyzing left ventricular function using echo Doppler cardiography, 45 hypertensive patients receiving treatment were allocated into 3 groups: normal function (LV-NF, n 15), impaired relaxation (LV-IR, n 15), and pseudonormal or restrictive (LV-P/R, n 15). An age-, sex-, and body mass indexmatched control group of normotensive volunteers (N, n 14) was included. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), heart rate, and systolic blood pressure variabilities and baroreflex sensitivity were evaluated while the patient was in a supine position. Blood pressure and antihypertensive drug use were similar among the hypertensive groups. The LV-IR and LV-P/R groups had similar MSNA (331 and 321 bursts/min, respectively), which was significantly higher than that of the LV-NF and N groups (263 and 152 bursts/min, respectively). The LV-IR and LV-P/R groups had significantly higher LF-systolic blood pressure variability and significantly lower baroreflex sensitivity compared with the N group. The presence of asymptomatic LVDD is associated with increased MSNA, independent of blood pressure control. The sympathetic hyperactivity associated with LVDD is similar in the different patterns of LVDD studied.

    Baroreflex Sensitivity Impairment Is Associated With Cardiac Diastolic Dysfunction in Rats
    (2011) MOSTARDA, Cristiano; MORAES-SILVA, Ivana Cinthya; MOREIRA, Edson Dias; MEDEIROS, Alessandra; PIRATELLO, Aline Cristina; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano; CALDINI, Elia Garcia; BRUM, Patricia Chakur; KRIEGER, Eduardo Moacyr; IRIGOYEN, Maria Claudia
    Background: Studies have shown that the autonomic dysfunction accompanied by impaired baroreflex sensitivity was associated with higher mortality. However, the influence of decreased baroreflex sensitivity on cardiac function, especially in diastolic function, is not well understood. This study evaluated the morpho-functional changes associated with baroreflex impairment induced by chronic sinoaortic denervation (SAD). Methods and Results: Animals were divided into sinoaortic denervation (SAD) and control (C) groups. Baroreflex sensitivity was evaluated by tachycardic and bradycardic responses, induced by vasoactive drugs. Cardiac function was studied by echocardiography and by left ventricle (LV) catheterization. LV collagen content and the expression of regulatory proteins involved in intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis were quantified. Results showed higher LV mass in SAD versus C animals. Furthermore, an increase in deceleration time of E-wave in the SAD versus the C group (2.14 +/- 0.07 ms vs 1.78 +/- 0.03 ms) was observed. LV end-diastolic pressure was increased and the minimum dP/dt was decreased in the SAD versus the C group (12 +/- 1.5 mm Hg vs 5.3 +/- 0.2 mm Hg and 7,422 +/- 201 vs 4,999 +/- 345 mm Hg/s, respectively). SERCA/NCX ratio was lower in SAD than in control rats. The same was verified in SERCA/PLB ratio. Conclusions: The results suggest that baroreflex dysfunction is associated with cardiac diastolic dysfunction independently of the presence of other risk factors. (J Cardiac Fail 2011;17:519-525)

    Functional Limitation and Intermittent Claudication: Impact of Blood Pressure Measurements
    (2012) SILVA, Rita de Cassia Gengo e; GIRIBELA, Cassiana Rosa Galvao; WOLOSKER, Nelson; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano
    Background: Arterial hypertension is an important risk factor for Lower-Limb Occlusive Arterial Disease (LLOAD). However, the correlation between blood pressure and pulse pressure (PP) with LLOAD severity and functional impairment resulting from this disease is not well established in the Brazilian population. Objective: To verify whether there is a correlation between blood pressure, PP, LLOAD severity and functional capacity in patients with symptomatic LLOAD. Methods: A total of 65 patients (62.2 + 8.1 years, 56.9% males) were evaluated. They were divided into two groups: normal (A) and high (B) blood pressure. LLOAD severity was assessed using the ankle-brachial index (ABI) and functional capacity by the total and pain-free walking distance at the 6-minute walking test (6MWT). Results: Group A consisted of 17 (26.1%) patients. The systolic (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and PP were, respectively, 125.4 +/- 11.7, 74.5 +/- 9.1 and 50.9 +/- 10.0 mmHg in group A and 160.7 +/- 19.6, 90.0 +/- 12.2 and 70.7 +/- 20.2 mmHg in group B. The ABI was significantly lower in group B (0.66 +/- 0.12 vs. 0.57 +/- 0.13, p < 0.05). SBP and PP correlated with LLOAD severity and the distances walked at the 6MWT. Patients with PP > 40 mmHg walked shorter distances. Conclusion: SBP and PP significantly correlated with the distances walked in the 6MWT, suggesting they are clinical markers of functional capacity impairment in patients with symptomatic LLOAD.

    Vascular Reactivity Is Impaired and Associated With Walking Ability in Patients With Intermittent Claudication
    (2015) SILVA, Rita de Cassia Gengo e; WOLOSKER, Nelson; YUGAR-TOLEDO, Juan Carlos; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano
    We verified whether vascular reactivity is impaired and whether there is any association between vascular reactivity, walking ability, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) severity in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). We studied 63 patients and 17 age- and sex-matched volunteers without PAD. Vascular reactivity was evaluated in the brachial artery during reactive hyperemia (flow-mediated dilation [FMD]) and after a sublingual single dose of nitroglycerin (nitroglycerin-induced vasodilation [NID]). Walking ability was verified by a 6-minute walk test. Vascular reactivity and walking ability were significantly worse in patients with IC compared with control participants. The ankle-brachial index correlated with FMD, NID, as well as total and pain-free distances. The NID and walking ability progressively decreased as PAD severity increased. Walking ability correlated with NID but not with FMD. In patients with IC, vascular reactivity is impaired and is related to the severity of PAD and to walking ability.

    Left cardiac sympathetic denervation for treatment of symptomatic systolic heart failure patients: a pilot study
    (2012) CONCEICAO-SOUZA, Germano Emilio; PEGO-FERNANDES, Paulo Manuel; CRUZ, Fatima das Dores; GUIMARAES, Guilherme Veiga; BACAL, Fernando; VIEIRA, Marcelo Luiz Campos; GRUPI, Cesar Jose; GIORGI, Maria Clementina Pinto; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda Marciano; NEGRAO, Carlos Eduardo; RONDON, Maria Urbana P.; MOREIRA, Luiz Felipe Pinho; BOCCHI, Edimar Alcides
    To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and potential beneficial effects of left cardiac sympathetic denervation (LCSD) in systolic heart failure (HF) patients. In this prospective, randomized pilot study, inclusion criteria were New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class II or III, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 40, sinus rhythm, and resting heart rate 65 b.p.m., despite optimal medical therapy (MT). Fifteen patients were randomly assigned either to MT alone or MT plus LCSD. The primary endpoint was safety, measured by mortality in the first month of follow-up and morbidity according to pre-specified criteria. Secondary endpoints were exercise capacity, quality of life, LVEF, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and 24 h Holter mean heart rate before and after 6 months. We studied clinical effects in long-term follow-up. Ten patients underwent LCSD. There were no adverse events attributable to surgery. In the LCSD group, LVEF improved from 25 6.6 to 33 5.2 (P 0.03); 6 min walking distance improved from 167 35 to 198 47 m (P 0.02). Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLWHFQ) score physical dimension changed from 21 5 to 15 7 (P 0.06). The remaining analysed variables were unchanged. During 848 549 days of follow-up, in the MT group, three patients either died or underwent cardiac transplantation (CT), while in the LCSD group six were alive without CT. LCSD was feasible and seemed to be safe in systolic HF patients. Its beneficial effects warrant the development of a larger randomized trial. Trail registration: NCT01224899.
