Abstract

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the functional significance of 18 F-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor ( 18 F-FAPI) activity in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by comparison with cardiac magnetic resonance feature-tracking (CMR-FT) strain analysis. Methods A total of 49 HCM patients were included in this study. Two independent control groups of healthy participants with a matched age and sex to the HCM patients were also enrolled. Left ventricular (LV) 18 F-FAPI activity was analyzed for extent (FAPI%) and intensity (maximum target-to-background ratio, TBR max ). The CMR tissue characterization parameters of the LV included late gadolinium enhancement, native T1 value, and extracellular volume fraction. LV strain analysis was performed in radial, circumferential, and longitudinal peak strains (PS). Results Intense LV myocardial 18 F-FAPI uptake was observed in HCM patients, whereas no obvious uptake was detected in healthy participants (median TBR max , 9.1 vs. 1.2, p 18 F-FAPI activity and strain parameters. The number of positive 18 F-FAPI uptake segments (n = 653) was higher than that of hypertrophic segments (n = 190) and positive CMR tissue characterization segments (n = 525) (all p 18 F-FAPI uptake segments was lower than that of negative 18 F-FAPI uptake segments (median radial PS, 30.5 vs. 36.1, p = 0.026 and median circumferential PS, -18.4 vs. -19.7, p = 0.041). Conclusion 18 F-FAPI imaging can partially reflect the potential strain reduction in…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
