Cardiac sympathetic nerve activity in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with malignant ventricular tachyarrhythmias
Abstract
Background Malignant ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VT) and sudden death are serious events in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, the pathophysiology of this condition is not well understood. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between cardiac sympathetic nerve activity and the occurrence of VT in HCM patients. Methods and results We studied iodine 123 metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy and 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring in 44 HCM patients, 15 with VT (group A) and 29 without VT (group B). With planar I-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine imaging, the heart-to-mediastinum ratio for early and delayed acquisition and washout rate were calculated. Polar maps of left ventricular myocardium were divided into 20 segments, and the SD of uptake and washout rate in 20 segments were calculated as indices of regional variation. The global washout rate was significantly higher in group A than in group B (26.8 +/- 6.4% vs 17.4 +/- 5.7%, P Conclusions The occurrence of malignant VT in HCM may be associated with global cardiac sympathetic nerve activity rather than with the heterogeneity of this activity.

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.
