    Abstract Background: Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction [LVOTO; pressure gradient (PG) ≥30 mmHg] is observed in some patients without hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), and it may develop especially in older patients without HCM (non-HCM). The aim of this study is to investigate if the Valsalva or an upright sitting maneuver can unveil latent LVOTO in patients with non-HCM.
    Methods: A total of 33 non-HCM patients with a late peaking or dagger-shaped pulsed Doppler waveform of the LVOT and PG <30 mmHg were included. The Doppler flow velocity of the LVOT was measured at rest, after the Valsalva and a sitting maneuver. Peak PG of ≥30 mmHg after either maneuver was defined as latent LVOTO. The angle between the left ventricular septum and the aorta in the parasternal long-axis view and the apical three-chamber view was measured.
    Results: Twenty (61 %) of the 33 patients (mean age 74 ± 9 years) were diagnosed with latent LVOTO. Of these, five (25 %) patients were diagnosed after both the Valsalva and sitting maneuver, and 15 (75 %) were diagnosed only after the sitting maneuver. The latent LVOTO group had a significantly smaller angle than the no-LVOTO group between the ventricular septum and the aorta in the parasternal long axis views (107 ± 8° vs. 117 ± 8°, p < 0.01).
    Conclusion: The sitting maneuver is better than the Valsalva maneuver in unveiling latent LVOTO in older, non-HCM patients.

    Abstract Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma (CPF) is a rare benign primary cardiac neoplasm. In particular, CPF originating from the mitral valve chordae is extremely rare. A 74-year-old man was hospitalized for the evaluation of a cardiac mass in the left ventricle. Echocardiography revealed a mobile, spherical, pedunculated 2.1×2.1 cm mass at the mitral valve chordae with no mitral regurgitation. The patient underwent excision of the mass without repairing the mitral valve. A histological examination confirmed the mass to be a papillary fibroelastoma.

    Abstract Few data exists regarding the clinical impact of breastfeeding in infantile sitosterolaemic cases. We report four Japanese infantile cases of sitosterolaemia, an extremely rare inherited disease characterised by increased serum levels of plant sitosterol, presenting with severe hypercholesterolaemia and systemic xanthomas exacerbated by breastfeeding. In these four cases, genetic analyses were performed for low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), LDL receptor adaptor protein 1 and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) subfamily G member 5 and 8 (ABCG5 and ABCG8) genes. We assessed their clinical manifestations, including responsiveness to a variety of treatments, especially to weaning from breastfeeding and use of ezetimibe. Two pairs of mutations in the ABCG5 gene in each case, including two novel mutations (c.130C>T or p.Ser44Ala and c.1813_1817delCTTTT or p.Pro558GlufsX14) and two known mutations (c.1306G>A or p.Arg389His and c.1336C>T or p.Arg446X), were identified. Significant reductions in cholesterol levels were obtained by means of weaning from breastfeeding alone. Substantial reductions in sitosterol levels, without any apparent side effects, were observed with ezetimibe. In conclusion, we have identified infantile Japanese sitosterolaemic subjects with extreme hypercholesterolaemia exacerbated by breastfeeding. Their unique response to weaning from breastfeeding, as well as to use of ezetimibe, could provide insights into the metabolic basis of sterols in humans.

    Abstract We previously performed genetic analysis in six unrelated families with infantile limb pain episodes, characterized by cold-induced deterioration and mitigation in adolescence, and reported two new mutations p.R222H/S in SCN11A responsible for these episodes. As no term described this syndrome (familial episodic pain: FEP) in Japanese, we named it as"". In the current study, we recruited an additional 42 new unrelated Japanese FEP families, between March 2016 and March 2018, and identified a total of 11 mutations in SCN11A: p.R222H in seven families, and p.R225C, p.F814C, p.F1146S, or p.V1184A, in independent families. A founder mutation, SCN11A p.R222H was confirmed to be frequently observed in patients with FEP in the Tohoku region of Japan. We also identified two novel missense variants of SCN11A, p.F814C and p.F1146S. To evaluate the effects of these latter two mutations, we generated knock-in mouse models harboring p.F802C (F802C) and p.F1125S (F1125S), orthologues of the human p.F814C and p.F1146S, respectively. We then performed electrophysiological investigations using dorsal root ganglion neurons dissected from the 6-8 week-old mice. Dissected neurons of F802C and F1125S mice showed increased resting membrane potentials and firing frequency of the action potentials (APs) by high input-current stimulus compared with WT mice. Furthermore, the firing probability of evoked APs increased in low stimulus input in F1125S mice, whereas several AP parameters and current threshold did not differ significantly between either of the mutations and WT mice. These results suggest a higher level of excitability in the F802C or F1125S mice than in WT, and indicate that these novel mutations are gain of function mutations. It can be expected that a considerable number of potential patients with FEP may be the result of gain of function SCN11A mutations.
