Project: “Early recognition of cardiac injury associated with COVID-19 and clinical outcomes.” Publisher Copyright: © 2023, The Author(s).Introduction: SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with multiple cardiac manifestations. Left atrial strain (LA-S) by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is a novel transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) measure of LA myocardial deformation and diastolic dysfunction, which could lead to early recognition of cardiac injury in severe COVID-19 patients with possible implications on clinical management, organ dysfunction, and mortality. Cardiac injury may occur by direct viral cytopathic effects or virus-driven immune activation, resulting in heart infiltration by inflammatory cells, despite limited and conflicting data are available on myocardial histology. Purpose: We aimed to explore LA-S and immune profiles in COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) to identify distinctive features in patients with cardiac injury. Methods: We enrolled 30 patients > 18 years with positive SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR, admitted to ICU. Acute myocardial infarction and pulmonary embolism were exclusion criteria. On days D1, D3, and D7 after ICU admission, patients performed TTE, hemogram, cardiac (pro-BNP; troponin) and inflammatory biomarkers (ESR; ferritin; IL1β; IL6; CRP; d-dimer; fibrinogen; PCT; adrenomedullin, ADM), and immunophenotyping by flow cytometry. Results: Patient’s mean age was 60.7 y, with 63% males. Hypertension was the most common risk factor (73%; with 50% of patients under ACEi or ARA), followed by obesity (40%, mean BMI = 31 kg/m2). Cardiac dysfunction was detected by STE in 73% of patients: 40% left ventricle (LV) systolic dysfunction, 60% LV diastolic dysfunction, 37% right ventricle systolic dysfunction. Mortality, hospitalization days, remdesivir use, organ dysfunction, cardiac and serum biomarkers were not different between patients with (DYS) and without cardiac dysfunction (nDYS), except for ADM (increased in nDYS group at D7). From the 77 TTE, there was a striking difference between diastolic dysfunction evaluation by classic criteria compared to STE (28.6% vs. 57.1%, p = 0.0006). Lower reservoir (Ɛ) and contraction (ƐCT) LA-S correlated with IL-6 (Ɛ, p = 0.009, r = − 0.47; ƐCT, p = 0.0002, r = − 0.63) and central memory CD4 T-cells (ƐCT, p = 0.049, r = − 0.24). Along all timepoints, DYS patients showed persistent low lymphocyte counts that recovered at D7 in nDYS patients. DYS patients had lower platelets at D3 and showed a slower recovery in platelet counts and CRP levels; the latter significantly decreased at D7 in nDYS patients (p = 0.009). Overall, patients recovered with an increasing P/F ratio, though to a lesser extent in DYS patients. Discussion: Our study shows that LA-S may be a more sensitive marker for diastolic dysfunction in severe COVID-19, which could identify patients at risk for a protracted inflammatory state. A differential immune trait in DYS patients at ICU admission, with persistent lymphopenia, enriched CM T-cells, and higher IL-6 may suggest distinct inflammatory states or migration patterns in patients that develop cardiac injury.NOVA Medical School|Faculdade de Ciências Médicas (NMS|FCM)RUNEchoCrit Group2023-01-30T22:18:34Z2023-01-122023-01-12T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/148417engPURE: 51542146https://doi.org/10.1186/s13089-022-00302-5info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:29:49Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/148417Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:53:21.167679Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
