    Evidence for cardiac safety and antiarrhythmic potential of chloroquine in systemic lupus erythematosus
    (2014) TEIXEIRA, Ricardo Alkmim; BORBA, Eduardo F.; PEDROSA, Anisio; NISHIOKA, Silvana; VIANA, Vilma S. T.; RAMIRES, Jose A.; KALIL-FILHO, Roberto; BONFA, Eloisa; MARTINELLI FILHO, Martino
    To perform a comprehensive evaluation of heart rhythm disorders and the influence of disease/therapy factors in a large systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) cohort. Three hundred and seventeen consecutive patients of an ongoing electronic database protocol were evaluated by resting electrocardiogram and 142 were randomly selected for 24 h Holter monitoring for arrhythmia and conduction disturbances. The mean age was 40.2 +/- 12.1 years and disease duration was11.4 +/- 8.1 years. Chloroquine (CQ) therapy was identified in 69.7% with a mean use of 8.5 +/- 6.7 years. Electrocardiogram abnormalities were detected in 66 patients (20.8%): prolonged QTc/QTd (14.2%); bundle-branch block (2.5%); and atrioventricular block (AVB) (1.6%). Age was associated with AVB (P = 0.029) and prolonged QTc/QTd (P = 0.039) whereas anti-Ro/SS-A and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) scores were not (P > 0.05). Chloroquine was negatively associated with AVB (P = 0.01) as was its longer use (6.1 +/- 6.9 vs. 1.0 +/- 2.5 years, P = 0.018). Time of CQ use was related with the absence of AVB [odds ratio (OR) = 0.103; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.011-0.934, P = 0.043] in multiple logistic regression. Holter monitoring revealed abnormalities in 121 patients (85.2%): supraventricular ectopies (63.4%) and tachyarrhythmia (18.3%); ventricular ectopies (45.8%). Atrial tachycardia/fibrillation (AT/AF) were associated with shorter CQ duration (7.05 +/- 7.99 vs. 3.63 +/- 5.02 years, P = 0.043) with a trend to less CQ use (P = 0.054), and older age (P < 0.001). Predictors of AT/AF in multiple logistic regression were age (OR = 1.115; 95% CI = 1.059-1.174, P < 0.001) and anti-Ro/SS-A (OR = 0.172; 95% CI = 0.047-0.629, P = 0.008). Chloroquine seems to play a protective role in the unexpected high rate of cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disturbances observed in SLE. Further studies are necessary to determine if this antiarrhythmic effect is due to the disease control or a direct effect of the drug.

    A cohort study of cardiac resynchronization therapy in patients with chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy
    (2018) MARTINELLI FILHO, Martino; PEIXOTO, Giselle de Lima; SIQUEIRA, Rgio Freitas de; MARTINS, Sergio Augusto Mezzalira; NISHIOKA, Silvana Angelina D'orio; PEDROSA, Anisio Alexandre Andrade; TEIXEIRA, Ricardo Alkmim; SANTOS, Johnny Xavier dos; COSTA, Roberto; KALIL FILHO, Roberto; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini
    Aims Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is an established procedure for patients with heart failure. However, trials evaluating its efficacy did not include patients with chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy (CCC). We aimed to assess the role of CRT in a cohort of patients with CCC. Methods and results This retrospective study compared the outcomes of CCC patients who underwent CRT with those of dilated (DCM) and ischaemic cardiomyopathies (ICM). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality and the secondary endpoints were the rate of non-advanced New York Heart Association (NYHA) class 12 months after CRT and echocardiographic changes evaluated at least 6 months after CRT. There were 115 patients in the CCC group, 177 with DCM, and 134 with ICM. The annual mortality rates were 25.4%, 10.4%, and 11.3%, respectively (P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis adjusted for potential confounders showed that the CCC group had a two-fold [hazard ratio 2.34 (1.47-3.71), P < 0.001] higher risk of death compared to the DCM group. The rate of non-advanced NYHA class 12 months after CRT was significantly higher in non-CCC groups than in the CCC group (DCM 74.0% vs. ICM 73.9% vs. 56.5%, P < 0.001). Chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy and ICM patients had no improvement in the echocardiographic evaluation, but patients in the DCM group had an increase in left ventricular ejection fraction and a decrease in left ventricular end-diastolic diameter. Conclusion This study showed that CCC patients submitted to CRT have worse prognosis compared to patients with DCM and ICM who undergo CRT. Studies comparing CCC patients with and without CRT are warranted.
