- Myocardial Inactivation of Thyroid Hormones in Patients with Aortic Stenosis(2017) PAOLINO, Bruno S.; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo M.; DALLAN, Luis Alberto O.; GAIOTTO, Fabio A.; PREITE, Nailliw Z.; LATRONICO, Ana Claudia; NICOLAU, Jose Carlos; BIANCO, Antonio C.; GIRALDEZ, Roberto R. C. V.Objective: The human heart expresses the type 2 deiodinase (D2) that activates thyroxine (T4) to triiodothyronine (T3). At the same time, the inactivating type 3 deiodinase (D3) has been found in a rat model of right ventricular hypertrophy. It is not known whether the human myocardium metabolizes thyroid hormone. This study examined myocardial thyroid hormone metabolism in patients with aortic valve stenosis (AS) undergoing aortic valve replacement and in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Methods: Myocardial thyroid hormone metabolism was assessed by analyzing the difference in serum thyroid hormone levels between the aortic root (incoming blood) and the coronary sinus (outgoing blood) of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. A total of 23 patients with AS and 35 patients with CAD were included. Patients received a pre-surgical echocardiogram, and pre-, during and post-surgical thyroid hormone serum levels were collected in the myocardial and peripheral circulations. Results: Patients with AS exhibited the expected left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy (i.e., 20-30% increase in LV posterior wall and interventricular septum thickness and similar to 10% increase in AS in LV diastolic diameter). Immediately before cardiopulmonary bypass, blood flowing through the AS myocardium exhibited a 4.6% reduction in T3 and 6.9% increase in rT3 levels, decreasing the serum T3/rT3 ratio by 9.6%. T4 and thyrotropin serum levels remained similar between the aortic root and coronary sinus. In contrast, no myocardial thyroid hormone metabolism was observed in CAD patients. Notably, the AS myocardium lost the ability to inactivate thyroid hormone after cardiopulmonary bypass, possibly due to myocardial stunning. Conclusions: There is accelerated thyroid hormone inactivation in the AS myocardium, which is likely the result of D3 expression. No evidence to suggest thyroid hormone activation in the myocardium was obtained in the present study.

Jatene- Myocardial Injury After Transcatheter Mitral Valve Replacement Versus Surgical Reoperation(2024) MARCHI, Mauricio Felippi de Sa; ROSA, Vitor Emer Egypto; NICZ, Pedro Felipe Gomes; FONSECA, Jose Honorio de Almeida Palma da; CALOMENI, Pedro; CHIODINI, Fernando; SAMPAIO, Roney Orismar; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo Maria Alberto; VIEIRA, Marcelo de Campos; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio; MIEGHEM, Nicolas M. Van; BRITO, Fabio Sandoli de; ABIZAID, Alexandre; RIBEIRO, Henrique BarbosaThis study aimed to evaluate the incidence and clinical implications of myocardial injury, as determined by cardiac biomarker increase, in patients who underwent mitral bioprosthesis dysfunction treatment with transcatheter mitral valve replacement (TMVR) versus surgical mitral valve replacement reoperation (SMVR-REDO). Between 2014 and 2023, 310 patients with mitral bioprosthesis failure were included (90 and 220 patients for TMVR and SMVR-REDO, respectively). Multivariable analysis and propensity score matching were performed to adjust for the intergroup differences in baseline characteristics. Creatinine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I (cTn) were collected at baseline and 6 to 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after intervention. The cardiac biomarkers values were evaluated in relation to their reference values. The outcomes were determined according to the Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium criteria. CK-MB and cTn increased above the reference level in almost all patients after SMVR-REDO and TMVR (100% vs 94%, respectively), with the peak occurring within 6 to 12 hours. SMVR-REDO was associated with a two- to threefold higher increase in cardiac biomarkers. After 30 days, the mortality rates were 13.3% in the TMVR and 16.8% in the SMVR-REDO groups. At a median follow-up of 19 months, the mortality rates were 21.1% in the TMVR and 17.7% in the SMVR-REDO groups. Left ventricular ejection fraction, estimated glomerular filtration rate, CK-MB, and cTn were predictors of mortality. In conclusion, some degree of myocardial injury occurred systematically after the treatment of mitral bioprosthetic degeneration, especially after SMVR, and higher CK-MB and cTn levels were associated with increased cumulative late mortality, regardless of the approach.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the EuroSCORE II to predict mortality in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafts or valve surgery at our institution. Methods: One thousand consecutive patients operated on coronary artery bypass grafts or valve surgery, between October 2008 and July 2009, were analyzed. The outcome of interest was in-hospital mortality. Calibration was performed by correlation between observed and expected mortality by Hosmer Lemeshow. Discrimination was calculated by the area under the ROC curve. The performance of the EuroSCORE II was compared with the EuroSCORE and InsCor (local model). Results: In calibration, the Hosmer Lemeshow test was inappropriate for the EuroSCORE II (P=0.0003) and good for the EuroSCORE (P=0.593) and InsCor (P=0.184). However, the discrimination, the area under the ROC curve for EuroSCORE II was 0.81 [95% CI (0.76 to 0.85), P<0.001], for the EuroSCORE was 0.81 [95% CI (0.77 to 0.86), P<0.001] and for InsCor was 0.79 [95% CI (0.74-0.83), P<0.001] showing up properly for all. Conclusion: The EuroSCORE II became more complex and resemblance to the international literature poorly calibrated to predict mortality in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafts or valve surgery at our institution. These data emphasize the importance of the local model.
conferenceObject HISTOPATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS IN CARDIAC VALVES SURGICALLY REMOVED FROM PATIENTS WITH INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS(2013) SICILIANO, R. F.; LEE, E. M.; VIEIRA, M. L. C.; POMERANTZEFF, P. M. A.; GRINBERG, M.; GUTIERREZ, P. S.; MANSUR, A. J.Objectives: To evaluate histopathological findings of cardiac valves surgically excised from patients with infective endocarditis relative to antimicrobial therapy and other clinical variables. Methods: We studied 44 patients, 30 men and 14 women aged 10–76 (median 52.5) years. Thirty biopsies were of bioprosthetic valves and 25 of native valves. The infecting microorganisms were streptococci in 18 (41%), Staphylococcus spp. in 9 (20%), Enterococcus spp. in 3 (7%), Gram-negative rods in 2 (4%) and others in 6 (13%). In 6 patients the infecting microorganism was not identified in blood cultures. All histopathological sections were reviewed by the same pathologist. A semi-quantitative analysis was used. Results: The mean of pre-operative antibiotic treatment was 19 days. Other findings are presented in Table 1. Conclusion: In patients with infective endocarditis treated for more than 30 days, histopathological sections of the excised valves may demonstrate bacteria and signs of acute inflammation.- Estratificação de risco cirúrgico como instrumento de inovação em programas de cirurgia cardíaca no Sistema Único de Saúde do Estado de São Paulo: ESTUDO SP-SCORE-SUS(2013) MEJIA, Omar Asdrubal Vilca; LISBOA, Luiz Augusto Ferreira; DALLAN, Luis Alberto Oliveira; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo Maria Alberto; TRINDADE, Evelinda Marramon; JATENE, Fabio Biscegli; KALIL FILHO, RobertoCardiovascular diseases represent the greatest burden of morbidity and mortality for the health system and cardiac surgery has an important impact on their resolutivity. The association and correlation of patients' demographic and clinical relevant information with the resources required for each stratum represent the possibility to adapt, improve and innovate into the healthcare programs. This project aims to remodel the ""InsCor"" risk score for the formulation of the SP-SCORE (Sao Paulo System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation) in order to better reflects the complexity of cardiac surgical care. The participating hospitals include the Health Technology Assessment Centers in of the Health Secretariat' HTA Network of Sao Paulo State (HTA-NATSs / SES-SP). The SP-SCORE will use 10 variables of the InsCor model and others 8 variables with presumed influence in Brazil. The primary endpoints are morbidity and mortality. Bootstrap technique besides automated selection of variables (stepwise) will be used to develop a parsimonious model by multiple logistic regression. This project will contribute for the SUS-SP regionalized health-care (RRAS) sustainability and financing of the CABG and/or heart valve surgery programs promoting equitable allocation, increasing access and effectiveness, as well as characterizing the magnitude of available resources and its impact.
- Comparison of Inhaled Nitric Oxide Versus Oxygen on Hemodynamics in Patients With Mitral Stenosis and Severe Pulmonary Hypertension After Mitral Valve Surgery(2011) FERNANDES, Juliano L.; SAMPAIO, Roney O.; BRANDAO, Carlos M.; ACCORSI, Tarso Augusto D.; CARDOSO, Luiz F.; SPINA, Guilherme S.; TARASOUTCHI, Flavio; POMERANTZEFF, Pablo; AULER JR., Jose O.; GRINBERG, MaxPulmonary hypertension represents an important cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with mitral stenosis who undergo cardiac surgery, especially in the postoperative period. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) would improve the hemodynamic effects and short-term clinical outcomes of patients with mitral stenosis and severe pulmonary hypertension who undergo cardiac surgery in a randomized, controlled study. Twenty-nine patients (4 men, 25 women; mean age 46 2 years) were randomly allocated to receive iNO (n = 14) or oxygen (n = 15) for 48 hours immediately after surgery. Hemodynamic data, the use of vasoactive drugs, duration of stay, and short-term complications were assessed. No differences in baseline characteristics were observed between the groups. After 24 and 48 hours, patients receiving iNO had a significantly greater increase in cardiac index compared to patients receiving oxygen (p < 0.0001). Pulmonary vascular resistance was also more significantly reduced in patients receiving iNO versus oxygen (-117 dyne/s/cm(5), 95% confidence interval 34 to 200, vs 40 dyne/s/cm5, 95% confidence interval 34 to 100, p = 0.005) at 48 hours. Patients in the iNO group used fewer systemic vasoactive drugs.(mean 2.1 +/- 0.14 vs 2.6 +/- 0.16, p = 0.046) and had a shorter intensive care unit stay (median 2 days, interquartile range 0.25, vs median 3 days, interquartile range 7, p = 0.02). In conclusion, iNO immediately after surgery in patients with mitral stenosis and severe pulmonary hypertension improves hemodynamics and may have short-term clinical benefits.
