    Abstract Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is an uncommon but devastating event among young adults. While inherited cardiomyopathies and channelopathies represent an important proportion of sudden deaths, coronary artery disease remains a significant contributor in this age group. ECG findings are essential to guide the first steps of diagnostic work-up of SCA, but sometimes can overlap between different etiologies. In this article we present a 16-year-old female who experienced SCA during vigorous swimming whose ECG was compatible with long QT syndrome. However, evaluation of the coronary anatomy provided the diagnosis of Kawasaki disease.

    Abstract Previous studies using conventional echocardiographic measurements have reported subclinical left ventricular (LV) diastolic abnormalities in patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Left atrial (LA) strain allows an accurate categorization of LV diastolic dysfunction. We aimed to characterize LV myocardial performance in a cohort of MFS patients using STE-derived measurements (LV and LA strain) along with conventional echocardiographic parameters. We studied 127 adult patients with MFS (no prior cardiac surgery or significant valvular regurgitation) and 38 healthy controls. We performed detailed echocardiograms and selected left atrial reservoir strain (LASr) as a surrogate of impaired relaxation. Additionally, we searched for possible determinants of LASr in patients with MFS, with a special focus on the elastic properties of the aorta. In spite of lower E-wave, septal and lateral e' velocities and average E/e' ratio in MFS patients, all participants had normal diastolic function according to current guidelines. MFS patients exhibited reduced LV global longitudinal strain (19.3 ± 2.6 vs 21.6 ± 2.1%, p < 0.001) and reduced LASr (32.9 ± 8.5 vs 43.3 ± 7.8%, p < 0.001) compared to controls. In the MFS cohort, we found weak significant (p < 0.05) correlations between LASr and certain parameters: E/A ratio (R = 0.258), E wave (R = 0.226), aortic distensibility (R = 0.222), stiffness index (R = - 0.216), LV ejection fraction (R = 0.214), lateral e' (R = 0.210), LV end-systolic volume index (R =  - 0.210), LV global longitudinal strain (R = 0.201), septal e' (R = 0.185). After multivariate analysis, only LV end-systolic volume index and E/A ratio maintained a weak independent association with LASr (R =  - 0.220; p = 0.017 and R = 0.199; p = 0.046, respectively). In conclusion, LASr is reduced in patients with MFS, which may represent an early stage of LV diastolic dysfunction. LASr is not determined by the elastic properties of the aorta, suggesting that impaired myocardial relaxation is a primary condition in MFS.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of this work is to assess the relationship between significant paravalvular leak (SPL) after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) on anaemia and their impact on prognosis.
    Methods: Observational analytic study developed at two university hospitals, including all consecutive patients who underwent TAVI during a 10-year period (2009 to 2018). A logistic regression model was created to determine independent predictors of anaemia at 3 months. Time to event outcomes were analysed with Cox regression. Median follow-up was 21.3±21.9 months.
    Results: 788 patients were included. 5.3% had SPL. SPL was an independent predictor of anaemia 3 months after TAVI (OR: 8.31, 95% CI: 2.06 to 33.50). SPL and anaemia at 3 months were independently associated with long-term mortality (HR: 1.82, 95% CI: 1.16 to 2.85; HR: 2.07, 95% CI: 1.39 to 3.08).
    Conclusion: SPL is an independent predictor of anaemia at 3 months after TAVI, a condition that doubles long-term mortality. Our findings could explain in part the worse prognosis of SPL after TAVI. Further pathophysiological studies are necessary to explain this association.
