ABSTRACT

Resumen: Introducción: La insuficiencia cardíaca crónica (ICC) es una condición compleja asociada a inflamación sistémica y a disfunción endotelial (DE) cuya patogénesis no es bien comprendida. Objetivo: Evaluar una posible relación entre marcadores de DE periférica con la respuesta a terapia de resincronización ventricular (TRV). Método: 20 pacientes con ICC, QRS ≥120ms y fracción de eyección ventricular izquierda (FEVI) ≤35% se estudiaron pre y 6 meses post-TRV con: Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ); test de marcha (TM-6min); Ecocardiografía-2D y SPECT de perfusión gatillado en reposo; proteína C-reactiva ultra sensible (us-PCR); péptido natriurético cerebral (pro-BNP); células endoteliales circulantes (CEC); moléculas de adhesión soluble vascular (sVCAM) e intercelular (sICAM); interleukina-6 (IL-6) y Factor von Willebrand (FvW). Se clasificaron como respondedores o no a TRV según criterios preestablecidos. Resultados: Promedios basales: pro-BNP 5.290pg/ml; us-PCR 1,7ug/mL; MLHFQ 72; TM-6min 391 metros. Las CEC y sICAM estaban sobre límites normales. Post-TRV, el 50% fue respondedor: 11/20 mejoraron ≥1 clase NYHA y ≥10% del TM-6min; ML-HFQ disminuyó (p<0.0001); FEVI mejoró (p=0.003); volumen final sistólico disminuyó (p=0.008) y también pro-BNP (p=0.03). En los respondedores, las CEC disminuyeron, persistiendo elevadas, sobre lo normal. Existieron correlaciones entre cambios de pro-BNP con TM-6min y entre us-PCR con MLHFQ y FvW (p≤0.004 en todas). Conclusiones: En ICC existe evidencia de significativa DE, expresada por sICAM y CEC, biomarcador periférico sensible. Estas disminuyeron 6 meses post-TRV, persistiendo sobre el límite normal. Otros parámetros funcionales e inflamatorios se correlacionaron en el grupo total, sin diferencias entre grupos respondedores y no respondedores.


Abstract: Introduction: Chronic heart failure (CHF) is a complex condition associated with systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction (ED) whose pathogenesis is not well understood. Objective: to evaluate a possible relationship between peripheral ED markers and response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Method: 20 patients with CHF, QRS ≥120ms and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35% were studied before and 6 months post-CRT. Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ); walking test (6min-WT); 2D-echocardiography and gated perfusion SPECT at rest; ultra-sensitive C-reactive protein (us-CRP); brain natriuretic peptide (pro-BNP); circulating endothelial cells (CEC); vascular soluble adhesion (sVCAM) and intercellular adhesion molecules (sICAM); interleukin-6 (IL-6) and von Willebrand Factor (vWF) were measured in all subjects. They were classified as responders or not to CRT, according to pre-established criteria. Results: Basal means: pro-BNP 5,290 pg / ml; us-CRP 1.7 ug/mL; MLHFQ 72; 6min-WT 391 meters. The CEC and IL-6 were above normal limits. Post-CRT, 50% were responders: 11/20 improved ≥1 NYHA class and ≥10% increase in 6min-WT; MLHFQ decreased (p <0.0001); LVEF improved (p = 0.003); final systolic volume decreased (p = 0.008) and also pro-BNP (p= 0.03). In responders CEC decreased, persisting over normal limits. There were correlations between changes of pro-BNP with TM-6min and between us-PCR with MLHFQ and vWF (p≤0.004 in all). Conclusions: In CHF there is evidence of significant ED, expressed by sICAM and CEC, a sensitive peripheral biomarker that decreased 6 months post-CRT although persisting above normal limits. Other functional and inflammatory parameters were correlated in the total group, without differences between responders and non-responders.
