Résumé

Endothelial dysfunction has been demonstrated to be an early marker of coronary artery disease (CAD). On the other hand, myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography (MP-SPECT) is a widely used technique for evaluation of patients with suspected or known CAD. Preliminary data suggest that myocardial perfusion heterogeneity (a potential surrogate marker of endothelial dysfunction) can be assessed on conventional MP-SPECT, but its additive and independent prognostic value over the presence of myocardial ischemia remain unknown. More over, factual data demonstrate that inhalation of particulate matters and gaz (NO2, CO) from air pollution contributes to the development of cardiovascular diseases in the short and long term. The role of air pollution in endothelial dysfunction has been suggested. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the prognostic value of myocardial perfusion heterogeneity assessed by a new automatized image processing method applied to routine MP-SPECT. The second purpose is to evaluate the role of air pollution exposure in pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. The main hypothesis is that the presence of myocardial perfusion heterogeneity is predictive of 2-year cardiovascular events in patients referred to the Nuclear Cardiology Department for routine evaluation of known or suspected CAD. The second hypothesis is that microcirculatory coronary dysfunction is a causal link between air pollution and cardiovascular disease.

Détail

Voir le détail 1. SPECT imaging protocol and analysis Stress tests and SPECTs are performed according to the routine protocols in use in our center. Briefly, at peak stress, patients were injected with thallium-201. Five to 10 minutes after stress, a 5-minutes supine acquisition was performed followed by a 5-minutes prone acquisition. Subsequently, technetium-99m-sestamibi was injected, and 2 minutes later a single 5-minutes rest acquisition was performed. During stress acquisition, patients were imaged in supine and prone positions with their arms positioned over their head. The rest acquisition was only acquired in supine position. The gated SPECT studies were performed at each acquisition. Injected activity (IA) was adjusted for patient weight. For weights of <80 kg/ 80-100 kg/>100 kg, thallium-201 IAs were 74/92/111 MBq and technetium-99m-sestamibi IAs were 300/370/450 MBq, respectively. A uniform imaging pre-treatment for the reconstruction of raw myocardial perfusion imaging data was applied, and images were reconstructed and reoriented to obtain transaxial sections of the left ventricle according to the three standard cardiac planes. 2. In this study, we use a new mathematic technique from entropy analysis to provide precise, objective, automated quantification of perfusion heterogeneity at stress with camera SPECT. This method may be a non-invasive imaging to assess coronary microvascular dysfunction. 3. Air pollution exposure (particule matters and gaz) is estimated by SIRANE dispersion models validated by Air Rhône-Alpes, our regional agency tasked with protecting and managing the ambient air quality. The dispersion models are used to estimate the downwind ambient concentration of air pollutants or toxins emitted from sources such as industrial plants, vehicular traffic or accidental chemical releases. Air pollution is estimated for each patient thanks to their postal private and professional adresses for different windows of exposure : - short term windows (2hours to 7 days before the MP-SPECT and cardiovascular events). - long term windows (1 - 5 years before the MP-SPECT and before cardiovascular events) Fermer le détail
