“…For example, a CMR study by Lei et al (13) demonstrated that there was no significant correlation between EF and age. In contrast, we confirmed that both LVEF and RVEF were increasing with age, which was consistent with several previous studies (12,20,21,36). In addition, the relationship between physiological aging and LVM has long been quite controversial.…”

Background: Quantification of cardiac structure and function is essential for diagnostic interpretation and clinical decision making. We sought to establish cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) reference values of left and right ventricular (LV and RV) morphology and function based on a large sample of healthy Chinese adults.Methods: Five hundred fifty validated healthy Chinese adults (aged 21–70 years; 323 men) free of hypertension, diabetes, and obesity were included in this study. All the subjects were stratified by gender (men and women) and age decades. On cine CMR, measurements of biventricular end-diastolic, end-systolic, and stroke volumes (EDV, ESV, and SV), ejection fraction (EF), and end-diastolic LV wall thickness (LVWT) and mass (LVM) were obtained.Results: Men had greater LVEDV (111.6 ± 19.8 vs. 94.6 ± 15.6 ml), LVESV (36.5 ± 9.8 vs. 28.2 ± 7.9 ml), LVM (121.1 ± 19.9 vs. 86.1 ± 14.5 g), global end-diastolic LVWT (8.1 ± 1.1 vs. 6.7 ± 1.0 mm), RVEDV (128.0 ± 23.6 vs. 101.7 ± 17.0 ml), and RVESV (53.5 ± 13.7 vs. 36.8 ± 8.9 ml), while women had greater LVEF (67.5 ± 5.4 vs. 70.4 ± 5.7%) and RVEF (58.5 ± 5.2 vs. 64.0 ± 5.3%) (all p < 0.001). For both men and women, age was negatively correlated with LVEDV (r = −0.31 and r = −0.32), LVESV (r = −0.37 and r = −0.47), RVEDV (r = −0.31 and r = −0.29), and RVESV (r = −0.33 and r = −0.44), while it was positively correlated with LVEF (r = 0.28 and r = 0.43) and RVEF (r = 0.28 and r = 0.41) (all p < 0.001). Aging was associated with increasing global end-diastolic LVWT and LVM/LVEDV in both sexes (all p < 0.001). Older age was associated with increasing LVM only in women (r = 0.36, p < 0.001), not in men (r = 0.05, p = 0.359).Conclusions: We systematically provide age-, sex-, and body size-specific CMR reference values for biventricular morphology and function based on a large sample of healthy Chinese adults. Biventricular structure and function are significantly associated with age and sex.

Aims Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a signaling lipid, which is involved in several cellular processes including cell growth, proliferation, migration and apoptosis. The associations of serum S1P levels with cardiac geometry and function are still not clear. We investigated the associations of S1P with cardiac structure and systolic function in a population-based sample. Methods and results We performed cross-sectional analyses of 858 subjects (467 men; 54.4%), aged 22 to 81 years, from a sub-sample of the population-based Study of Health in Pomerania (SHIP-TREND-0). We analyzed the associations of serum S1P with structural and systolic function left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) parameters as determined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using sex-stratified multivariable-adjusted linear regression models. In men, MRI data showed that a 1 µmol/L lower S1P concentration was associated with an 18.1 mL (95% confidence interval [CI] 3.66–32.6; p = 0.014) larger LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), a 0.46 mm (95% CI 0.04–0.89; p = 0.034) greater LV wall thickness (LVWT) and a 16.3 g (95% CI 6.55–26.1; p = 0.001) higher LV mass (LVM). S1P was also associated with a 13.3 mL/beat (95% CI 4.49–22.1; p = 0.003) greater LV stroke volume (LVSV), an 18.7 cJ (95% CI 6.43–30.9; p = 0.003) greater LV stroke work (LVSW) and a 12.6 mL (95% CI 1.03–24.3; p = 0.033) larger LA end-diastolic volume (LAEDV). We did not find any significant associations in women. Conclusions In this population-based sample, lower levels of S1P were associated with higher LV wall thickness and mass, larger LV and LA chamber sizes and greater stroke volume and work of the LV in men, but not in women. Our results indicate that lower levels of S1P were associated with parameters related with cardiac geometry and systolic function in men, but not in women. Graphical abstract

J wave syndromes in patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy

Background Males with X-linked recessive spinobulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) are reported to die suddenly and a Brugada electrocardiography (ECG) pattern may be present. A hallmark of this pattern is the presence of ST segment elevations in right precordial leads associated with an increased risk of sudden cardiac death. Objective We aimed to detect subtle myocardial abnormalities using ECG and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in patients with SBMA. Methods 30 SBMA patients (55.7 ± 11.9 years) and 11 healthy male controls underwent 12-lead ECGs were recorded using conventional and modified chest leads. CMR included feature-tracking strain analysis, late gadolinium enhancement and native T1 and T2 mapping. Results Testosterone levels were increased in 6/29 patients. Abnormal ECGs were recorded in 70%, consisting of a Brugada ECG pattern, early repolarization or fragmented QRS. Despite normal left ventricular ejection fraction (66 ± 5%), SBMA patients exhibited more often left ventricular hypertrophy as compared to controls (34.5% vs 20%). End-diastolic volumes were smaller in SBMA patients (left ventricular volume index 61.7 ± 14.7 ml/m2 vs. 79.1 ± 15.5 ml/m2; right ventricular volume index 64.4 ± 16.4 ml/m2 vs. 75.3 ± 17.5 ml/m2). Tissue characterization with T1-mapping revealed diffuse myocardial fibrosis in SBMA patients (73.9% vs. 9.1%, device-specific threshold for T1: 1030 ms). Conclusion SBMA patients show abnormal ECGs and structural abnormalities, which may explain an increased risk of sudden death. These findings underline the importance of ECG screening, measurement of testosterone levels and potentially CMR imaging to assess cardiac risk factors.
