"Latar belakang. Timbulnya stasis darah dan pembesaran atrium kiri menyebabkan peningkatan angka kejadian trombus di atrium kiri dan apendiks atrium kiri (Left Atrial Appendage-LAA) pada SM. Diameter atrium kiri yang membesar disebutkan sebagai faktor terjadinya pembentukan LASEC dan meningkatkan angka kejadian tromboemboli. Selain itu adanya stasis darah yang dibuktikan dengan penurunan ejeksi fraksi LAA dan kecepatan aliran darah LAA dapat mencetuskan timbulnya trombus. Perubahan moluker adhesi sICAM-1 dan sVCAM-1 berhubungan dengan kejadian tromboemboli. Tetapi apakah terdapat hubungan antara peran hemodinamik, terutama terhadap diameter, fraksi ejeksi dan kecepatan aliran darah pada LAA dengan kadar molekul adhesi seperti sICAM-1 dan sVCAM-1 belum terjawab. Metode. Pasien SM derajat sedang-berat (tanpa adanya regurgitasi mitral signifikan) yang menjalani pemeriksan ekokardiografi transesofageal diikutsertakan secara konsekutif sejak Januari-April 2014. Penilaian fungsi apendiks atrium kiri dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan transesofageal ekokardiografi. Kadar sICAM-1 dan sVCAM-1 dari vena perifer diukur dengan teknik enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Hasil. Sebanyak 26 subyek penelitian dengan rerata usia 38,92±11,93 tahun, 65,3% berjenis kelamin perempuan, dan 46,1% memiliki irama fibrilasi atrium. Dengan sampel tersebut, didapatkan tidak ada hubungan antara komponen fungsi apendiks atrium kiri, baik diameter, ejeksi fraksi, dan kecepatan aliran darah LAA dengan kadar sICAM-1. Tidak terdapat hubungan antara fungsi LAA pada variabel diameter dengan kadar sVCAM-1. Terdapat hubungan terbalik antara ejeksi fraksi LAA dengan kadar sVCAM-1 (-0,21, p=0.038, 95%KI -0,41- -0,01) dan hubungan terbalik antara kecepatan aliran darah LAA dengan kadar sVCAM-1 (-0,29, p=0,048, 95%KI -0,59- -0,003). Kesimpulan. Semakin rendah ejeksi fraksi dan kecepatan aliran darah LAA maka semakin tinggi kadar sVCAM-1.

Background: Blood stasis and left atrial enlargement increase the incidence of thrombus in the left atrium and left atrial appendage (LAA). Enlargement of left atrial diameter is a factor for LASEC formation and increase the incidence of thromboembolism. Blood stasis which evidenced by a decrease in ejection fraction and LAA blood flow velocity can trigger the presence of thrombus. Changes in soluble adhesion molecules sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 associated with thromboembolic events. But relationship between the role of hemodynamics, especially the ejection fraction and blood flow velocity in the LAA with the levels of adhesion molecules such as sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 is not well understood.

Methods: Patient with moderate-severe Mitral Stenosis (in the absence of significant mitral regurgitation) underwent transesophageal echocardiography from January to April 2014. Levels of sICAM-1 and sVCAM-1 from peripheral vein were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent technique assay.

Results: A total of 26 subjects with a mean age of 38.92 ± 11.93 years, 65.3% female, and 46.1% had atrial fibrillation. We found no association between components of left atrial appendage function: diameter, ejection fraction and blood flow velocity of LAA with sICAM-1 levels. There was no relationship between the LAA function in the variable diameter of LAA with sVCAM-1 levels. There is an inverse relationship between ejection fraction of LAA and levels of sVCAM-1 (-0.21, p = 0.038, 95% KI -0,41- -0,01) and an inverse association between LAA blood flow velocity and levels of sVCAM-1 (-0 , 29, p = 0.048, 95% KI -0.59 - 0.003).

Conclusion: Low ejection fraction of LAA is associated with higher the levels of sVCAM-1. Low LAA blood flow velocity is associated with higher the levels of sVCAM-1."

"Intervensi Koroner Perkutan Primer (IKPP) merupakan pilihan utama untuk mengembalikan aliran darah dan perfusi pasien yang mengalami Infark Miokard Akut dengan Elevasi Segmen ST (IMA-EST). Tapi tidak selalu mengembalikan aliran yang cukup pada tingkat mikrosirkulasi, hal ini disebabkan oleh obstruksi mikrovaskular (OMV). Banyak penelitian telah membuktikan pengaruh inflamasi terhadap kejadian OMV, tingginya rasio neutrofil limfosit pasca IKPP menggambarkan respon inflamasi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai hubungan rasio neutrofil limfosit (RNL) terhadap kejadian obstruksi mikrovaskular yang dinilai dengan pemeriksaan myocardial blush kuantitatif (QuBE). Metode: Sebanyak 33 subjek IMA–EST yang menjalani IKPP dipilih secara konsekutif sejak 1 September 2013 sampai 30 Oktober 2013. RNL diambil saat masuk UGD, penilaian myocardial blush (MB) diambil segera pasca IKPP, angiografi untuk RCA (RAO 30˚) dan LCA (LAO 60˚-90˚). Kemudian RNL dikirim ke laboratorium untuk diperiksa dengan dengan Sysmex 2000i, blush dinilai dengan program komputer QuBE. Perhitungan statistik dinilai dengan SPSS 17. Hasil: Dari 33 pasien didapatkan proporsi terbanyak berjenis kelamin laki-laki sebesar 75,7%, rerata usia pasien 56±9.8 tahun. Analisa statistik menunjukkan tidak terdapat hubungan antara RNL dan QuBE (β=-0,180;p=0,664) namun terdapat kecenderungan setiap kenaikan 1 unit RNL akan menurunkan QuBE sebesar 0,180 unit arbiter. Setelah dilakukan adjusted terhadap faktor perancu didapatkan kecenderungan penurunan yang lebih besar meskipun tetap tidak menunjukkan hubungan yang bermakna. (koef β=-0,331 ; p=0,527).

Primary percutaneus coronary intervention (PPCI) is a first of choice to return patient’s blood flow and perfusion with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, it is not always sufficiently reflow of microcirculation due to Microvascular Obstruction (MVO). Many studies had proved that neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has emerged as a potent composite inflammatory marker. The aim of this study is to evaluate association between NLR and MVO by Quantitative Blush Evaluator (QuBE).

Methode: 33 STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI were consecutivly recruited from September to October 2013. The NLR was withdraw at patient admission. We evaluate the myocardial blush immediately after PCI done. Angiography views were RAO 30˚ for RCA, and LAO 60˚-90˚for LCA. Then the NLR was sent to laboratory for examination. QuBE was done to evaluate myocardial blush. Statistical analysis was done by SPSS 17.

Results: From thirty three patients included in the study, there were 75,75% men, with mean age 56±9.8 years old. Statistical analysis showed no correlation between NLR and QuBE (β=-0,180;p=0,664) but there was decrease of 0,180 unit arbiter QuBE for each 1 unit of peripheral NLR. After adjustment of confounding factor, there was more decreasing value although there is no significant correlation. (coef β=-0,331;p=0,527)."

Introduction: Only few studies have investigated simple laboratory parameters as predictors of left atrial thrombus in subset of rheumatic mitral stenosis. In addition, there are currently very few studies describing the pathomechanism of left atrial thrombus related to the hemorheological component in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis. Objective: A study was conducted to assess the causal relationship of hemorheological parameters from a simple laboratory Red Cell Distribution Width (RDW), Mean Platelet Volume (MPV), hematocrit, and platelet count with the incidence of left atrial thrombus in rheumatic mitral stenosis. Methods: A cross-sectional analytical, LAMIA Study, was conducted with data collection on patients with significant rheumatic stenosis starting from 1 January 2018 to 31 July 2021. Thrombus evaluation was established by transthoracic or transesophageal echocardiography. Lab tests were performed within 10 days prior to the echocardiographic evaluation. Subjects with significant mitral regurgitation will be excluded. Results: Of the 318 subjects with significant rheumatic mitral stenosis included in the study, 102 patients (32%) had a thrombus in the left atrium. Of all the patients, it was known that subjects with atrial fibrillation rhythm as much as 63.8% and sinus rhythm 36.2%. Atrial fibrillation rhythm (OR 2.39; 95% CI 1.10-5.20, p = 0.028), left ventricular ejection fraction ≥56.68 % (OR 0.42; 95% CI 0.23 - 0.77, p = 0.005), TAPSE ≥18.10 mm (OR 0.44; 95% CI 0.230 - 0.83, p = 0.011), and hematocrit ≥45.15% (OR 2.98; 95% CI 1.27 - 6.98, p = 0.012). Conclusion: Increased hematocrit was significantly associated with the incidence of left atrial thrombus, whereas RDW and platelet count were not associated with the incidence of left atrial thrombus in rheumatic mitral stenosis.

"[ABSTRAKLatar belakang : Stenosis mitral (SM) masih merupakan masalah kesehatan yang penting di Indonesia. Pada SM terjadi peningkatan kadar P selectin karena disfungsi endotel dan aktivasi platelet. Komisurotomi mitral transvena perkutan (KMTP) merupakan tatalaksana baku untuk penderita SM yang dapat memperbaiki kemampuan aktivitas fisik yang pada akhirnya akan mempengaruhi kadar P selectin. Belum ada penelitian yang menghubungkan antara tingkat aktifitas fisik dengan kadar P Selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP pada SM rematik.Metode : Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian potong lintang. Dari 56 subyek penelitian yang menjalani KMTP sejak bulan Mei 2013 sampai Februari 2014 di Rumah Sakit Jantung dan Pembuluh Darah Harapan Kita, didapatkan 35 sampel yang memenuhi kriteria penerimaan . Data klinis dan data ekokardiografi sebelum dan 3 bulan pasca KMTP diambil dari catatan medis. Dilakukan wawancara 3 bulan pasca KMTP. Tingkat aktivitas fisik dibagi menjadi 2 kelompok: kelompok 1 1-4 METs, kelompok 2 > 4 METs. Kadar P selectin diambil 3 bulan pasca KMTP. Selanjutnya dilakukan analisa statistik untuk mengetahui hubungan antara tingkat aktivitas fisik dengan kadar P Selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP pada SM rematikHasil : Pasien yang akan menjalani KMTP memiliki rerata usia 40,00±11,58 tahun dengan proporsi perempuan lebih tinggi daripada laki-laki (74,3%) dan dengan proporsi irama sinus yang lebih tinggi daripada irama atrial (57,1%). Dari uji T didapatkan ada perbedaan bermakna rata-rata kadar P selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP pada tingkat aktivitas fisik 1-4 METs dan > 4 METs, dimana rerata kadar P selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP pada tingkat aktivitas fisik > 4 METs lebih rendah secara bermakna dibandingkan 1-4 METs (p=0,003). Setelah dilakukan analisa multivariat terlihat tingkat aktivitas fisik pasca KMTP tetap berpengaruh terhadap kadar P Selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP (p=0,001). Area Katup Mitral (AKM) pasca KMTP berpengaruh terhadap kadar P selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP (p=0,018), namun tingkat aktivitas fisik pasca KMTP lebih besar pengaruhnya dibandingkan AKM.Kesimpulan : Terdapat hubungan antara tingkat aktivitas fisik dengan kadar P selectin 3 bulan pasca KMTP dimana pada tingkat aktivitas yang lebih tinggi ( > 4 METs) kadar P selectin lebih rendah 10,489 ug/ml dibandingkan tingkatan aktivitas fisik 1-4 METs.

ABSTRACTBackground: Mitral stenosis (MS) is an important health problem in Indonesia. P selectin level in MS increases due to endothelial dysfunction and platelet activation. Percutaneous transvenous mitral commissurotomy (PTMC) is one of the management for MS patients. Thus, the physical activity can improve and in turn affect the level of P selectin. There has been no study link the level of physical activity with the level of P Selectin 3 months after of PTMC.Method: This is a cross sectional study with 56 subjects who underwent PTMC from May 2013 to February 2014 at the Hospital of National Heart Centre Harapan Kita. Then, 35 samples met the inclusion criteria. Clinical and echocardiography data before and 3 months after PTMC were taken from medical records. Interviews were conducted 3 months after PTMC. Physical activity levels were divided into 2 groups: group 1 (1-4 METs) and group 2 (> 4 METs). Sample for P selectin was taken 3 months after PTMC. Further statistical analysis was done to determine the relationship between physical activity level with level of P Selectin 3 months after PTMC in rheumatic MS.Result: Patients who will undergo PTMC have the mean age of 40.00 ± 11.58 years with a higher proportion of women than men (74.3%) and the proportion of sinus rhythm is higher than atrial rhythm (57.1%) . T-test analysis result showed significant difference in the average levels of P selectin 3 months after PTMC on the level of physical activity 1-4 METs and > 4 METs. The average P selectin levels on the level of physical activity in group with > 4 METs was significantly lower compared with group 1-4 METs (p = 0.003). After multivariate analysis, the physical activity level still has an effect on the P selectin levels 3 months after PTMC (p = 0.001). The Mitral Valve Area (MVA) after PTMC also has an effect on P selectin levels (p = 0.018). However, the level of physical activity after PTMC has a greater effect than MVA.Conclusion: There is a relationship between the level of physical activity with P selectin levels 3 months after PTMC.Group with higher activity level (> 4 METs) have lower level of P selectin (with the mean difference levels of P Selectin 10,489 ug/ml);Background: Mitral stenosis (MS) is an important health problem in Indonesia.

Background : Valvular heart disease, especially rheumatic mitral valve diseaseoften coexists with atrial fibrillation AF. Mitral stenosis MS and mitralregurgitation MR with atrial fibrosis because of rheumatic process, resulting instructural remodeling and electrical remodeling of left atrium which contribute foroccurence of AF. Left atrial reduction surgery with mitral valve correction issimple procedure, takes relatively short operation time, and quite inexpensive asan alternative treatment for AF in rheumatic mitral valve disease.

Objective : Assessing the effect of left atrial reduction for short term and longterm rhythm conversion of AF in rheumatic mitral valve disease.

Method : We conducted a retrospective cohort study in atrial fibrillation patientswith rheumatic mitral valve disease who underwent mitral valve surgery duringthe period of May 2012 until May 2016 in the National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita. Left atrial reduction surgery became an independent variable whichexpected to have an influence on the rhythm conversion. The dependent variablewas the conversion of rhythm which was assessed through the observation in ashort term and long term.

Result : There were 257 subjects in this study, consisting of 131 subjects in theleft atrial reduction group and 126 subjects in the non left atrial reduction group.In left atrial reduction group, there were 42 subjects 32,1 with sinus rhythm inshort term observation and 37 subjects 28,2 with sinus rhythm during longterm observation. From multivariat analysis, the significant variable for the shortterm rhythm conversion were left atrial reduction with OR 0,56 CI 95 0,31 ndash 0,98 and p 0,044 and also beta blocker therapy with OR 0,56 CI 95 0,31 ndash 0,99 and p 0,047. While the significant variable for rhythm conversion in longterm were left atrial reduction with OR 0,51 CI 95 0,28 ndash 0,94 and p 0,031,beta blocker therapy with OR 0,53 CI 95 0,28 ndash 0,98 and p 0,042, and alsopre operation left atrial volume index le 146 ml m2 with OR 0,47 CI 95 0,26 ndash 0,87 and p 0,017.

Conclusion : Left atrial reduction has an effect for short term and long termrhythm conversion of AF in rheumatic mitral valve disease."

"Latar belakang: Stenosis mitral (SM) berat gradien rendah didefinisikan dengan mitral valve area (MVA) <1.5 cm2 dan gradien transmitral <10 mmHg. Perubahan fungsi atrium kiri merupakan salah satu mekanisme yang mendasari SM berat gradien rendah, dimana dapat dianalisis dengan strain atrium kiri. Komisurotomi Mitral Transkateter Perkutan (KMTP) adalah pilihan utama pasien dengan SM berat tanpa kontraindikasi. Tujuan: Membandingkan perubahan nilai strain atrium kiri dengan Peak Atrial Longitudinal Strain (PALS) antara pasien SM berat gradien rendah dan tinggi pasca KMTP. Metode: Pasien SM berat yang berhasil dilakukan KMTP dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu gradien rendah dan gradien tinggi. Dengan menggunakan ekokardiografi speckle tracking, nilai PALS diukur pada 24-48 jam sebelum KMTP dan 7-14 hari setelah KMTP. Kemudian nilai PALS antara kedua kelompok dianalisis menggunakan uji statistik Mann-Whitney. Hasil: Terdapat 32 pasien (46%) pada kelompok gradien rendah dan 39 pasien (54%) pada kelompok gradien tinggi. Subjek dengan SM berat gradien rendah cenderung lebih tua, memiliki irama jantung fibrilasi atrium, memiliki baseline MVA yang lebih besar, dan memiliki nilai net atrioventricular compliance (Cn) yang lebih tinggi. Nilai PALS rendah pada kedua kelompok dan mengalami perbaikan pasca KMTP [8%(2–23) vs. 11%(3–27), p<0.0001]. Tidak terdapat perbedaan antara PALS sebelum KMTP, setelah KMTP, dan perbedaannya (delta) antara kedua kelompok. Analisis subgrup pasien dengan irama jantung sinus menunjukan perbedaan nilai PALS antara kelompok gradien rendah dan tinggi pre KMTP (15±4% vs. 11±5%, p=0.030) dan post KMTP (19±4% vs. 15±4%, p=0.019). Analisis multivariat menemukan bahwa irama jantung merupakan variabel independent terkuat dalam mempengaruhi nilai PALS. Kesimpulan: Fungsi reservoir atrium kiri, yang dinilai dengan PALS mengalami penurunan pada pasien SM berat dan meningkat pasca KMTP, tanpa dipengaruhi oleh baseline MVG.

Background: Low gradient severe mitral stenosis (LGMS) is defined as mitral valve area (MVA) less than ≤ 1.5 cm2 and mitral valve gradient (MVG) < 10 mmHg. Functional changes in the left atrium (LA) are one of the mechanisms that follow LGMS, which can be assessed using strain analysis. Balloon Mitral Valvotomy (BMV) is the treatment of choice for suitable MS patients without contraindications. Objective: This study compared changes in Peak Atrial Longitudinal Strain (PALS) following BMV between low- and high-gradient severe MS patients. Methods: We included MS patients who underwent a successful BMV and divided into LGMS group and high-gradient mitral stenosis (HGMS) group. Using speckle tracking echocardiography, PALS was assessed 24–48 hours before and 7–14 days after BMV procedure. Then, the PALS values were compared between those two groups using Mann- Whitney. Results: There were 32 patients (46%) in the low-gradient MS group and 39 patients (54%) in the high-gradient MS group. Subjects with LGMS were older, had more atrial fibrillation, had a larger baseline MVA, and had higher net atrioventricular compliance (Cn). The PALS values were low in both groups and improved significantly following BMV [8%(2–23) vs. 11%(3– 27), p<0.0001]. There were no differences in PALS values before, after BMV, and its absolute changes between the groups. Subgroup analysis in subjects with sinus rhythm revealed PALS differences between low and high-gradient MS pre (15±4% vs. 11±5%, p=0.030) and post- BMV (19±4% vs. 15±4%, p=0.019). Multivariate analysis identified heart rhythm as the strongest independent variable for PALS values. Conclusion: Left atrial reservoir function, as assessed by PALS, was reduced in patients with severe MS and was increased following BMV, irrespective of their baseline MVG."

"Latar Belakang: Kondisi MS akan menyebabkan terjadinya peningkatan tekanan atrium kiri secara progresif dan menyebabkan remodelling serta dilatasi atrium kiri. Proses ini akan berakhir dengan penurunan komplians dari atrium kiri dan menyebabkan perubahan secara morfologis dan fungsional. Beberapa studi menunjukkan pengukuran Strain atrium kiri pada pasca tindakan balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) menunjukkan perbaikan yang bermakna. Namun belum ada yang menilai hubungan antara perubahan Strain atrium kiri dengan perbaikan kapasitas fungsional pada pasien MS pasca tindakan BMV.Tujuan: Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengevaluasi hubungan antara perubahan Strain atrium kiri dengan perubahan kapasitas fungsional pada pasien MS pasca tindakan BMV.Metode: Desain penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi dengan one group pre-post design. Penelitian ini menggunakan data pemeriksaan ekokardiografi dan data kapasitas fungsional pasien mitral stenosis yang dilakukan tindakan BMV pada Maret 2019 hingga April 2020. Dilakukan pengukuran strain atrium kiri dengan metode speckle tracking echocardiography. Data sebelum dan sesudah BMV dianalisis untuk mencari hubungan variabel terhadap perubahan kapasitas fungsional.Hasil: Pasca tindakan BMV, terjadi perbaikan signifikan kapasitas fungsional yang ditandai dengan perbaikan median lama latihan (241 (18 – 1080) ke 606 (80 – 1900) detik, p <0.0001) dan perbaikan median nilai VO2max estimasi (18,8 (10,2 – 51,4) ke 33(12,6-83,2) mlO2/kg/menit, p <0.0001). Strain atrium kiri mengalami perubahan signifikan pasca tindakan BMV dari median 8(2-23)% ke 11(4-27)%. Dari uji korelasi didapatkan bahwa pre-MVG (r 0,23, adjusted R2 = 4,9%) berkorelasi terhadap perubahan kapasitas fungsional. Pada analisis bivariat dan multivariat didapatkan bahwa perubahan strain atrium kiri tidak berhubungan dengan perubahan kapasitas fungsional. Nilai pra MVA >1 cm2 (OR 7,37, IK 95% 1,0-54,35; p = 0,05) pra MVG > 10 mmHg (OR 6,6, IK 95% 1,71-25,5; p = 0,006) dan pra mPAP < 25 mmHg (OR 5,96, IK 95% 1,37-25,9; p = 0,017) berkorelasi terhadap perbaikan lama latihan pasca tindakan BMV.Kesimpulan: Perubahan strain atrium kiri tidak berhubungan dengan perubahan kapasitas fungsional pada pasien MS pasca tindakan BMV.

Background: MS conditions will cause a progressive increase in left atrial pressure, remodelling and left atrial dilatation. This process will end with a decrease of left atrial compliance, causing morphological and functional changes. Several studies have shown that left atrial strain measurements after the BMV procedure showed significant improvement. However, no study has assessed the relationship between changes in left atrial strain and improvements in functional capacity in MS patients after the BMV procedure.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the association between left atrial strain changes and functional capacity changes in MS patients after BMV procedures

Method: This is a one group pre-post design using retrospective data. This study used echocardiographic and functional capacity data of mitral stenosis patients who underwent BMV procedures from March 2019 to April 2020. Left atrial strain was measured using the speckle tracking echocardiography method. Data before and after BMV were analyzed to find the association of variables to changes in functional capacity.

Results: After the BMV procedure, there was a significant improvement in functional capacity as indicated by an improvement in the median length of exercise (241 (18 – 1080) to 606 (80 – 1900) seconds, p <0.0001) and an improvement in the median estimated VO2max value (18.8 (10.2). – 51.4) to 33(12.6-83.2) mlO2/kg/min, p < 0.0001). The left atrial strain underwent a significant change after the BMV procedure from a median of 8(2-23)% to 11(4-27)%. From the correlation test it was found that pre-MVG (r 0.23, adjusted R2 = 4.9%) correlated with changes in functional capacity. In bivariate and multivariate analysis, it was found that changes in left atrial strain were not associated with changes in functional capacity. Pre MVA value >1 cm2 (OR 7.37, CI 95% 1.0-54.35; p = 0.05) pre MVG > 10 mmHg (OR 6.6, CI 95% 1.71-25.5 ; p = 0.006) and pre mPAP < 25 mmHg (OR 5.96, CI 95% 1.37-25.9; p = 0.017) correlated with the improvement in duration of exercise after the BMV action.

Conclusion: Changes in left atrial strain are not associated with changes in functional capacity in MS patients after the BMV procedure."
