#EHJCVI There may be something worse than a broken heart! 💔In #Takotsubo syndrome, physical triggers were linked to worse in-hospital and post-discharge outcomes than emotional ones ‼️ Interestingly, PT showed less LGE and lower troponin 💡 Explore: doi.org/10.1093/ehjc... #MedSky

Table: Characteristics of the three clusters. The figures in the first two lines refer to medoids of TSH and FT4 concentration as identified by the clustering algorithm.
#Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a poorly understood life-threatening #cardiomyopathy. With machine learning, we found 3 signatures of #thyroid #homeostasis heralding the prognosis of patients affected by TTS.

Figure: Bivariate null isokline plot of first measured FT4 and TSH serum concentrations per subject in relation to percentiles of subsystem responses of thyroid homeostasis. Shown are three different point clouds, representing three clusters: Normal controls (green dots in the center), critically-ill patients with acute coronary syndroms (black dots in the lower zone of TSH concentration) and patientes with Takotsubo syndrome (red dots in two cloucs with low and high TSH concentration).
Distribution (mean ± SEM) of measured and derived parameters in TTS during the first seven days of treatment. The shaded rectangles mark the reference ranges for the respective parameters. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, *****P < 1e–5 compared to reference range with binomial test; P values are adjusted with the Benjamini–Hochberg method. SPINA-GT is elevated, and SPINA-GD is reduced during the first three days of Takotsubo syndrome. TTSI is elevated on day 3, representing a high set point of thyroid homeostasis as a consequence of type 2 allostatic load.
Abnormal thyroid function in Takotsubo syndrome is marked by two distinct phenotypes: an endocrine type representing primary hyperthyroidism and a stress type with an elevated set point of thyroid homeostasis. The results suggest a stress-dependent adaptive endocrine response or type 2 thyroid allostasis.
#Takotsubo syndrome is a dangerous stress-related #heart disease. Since #T3 upregulates β-receptors, we assumed a link to #thyroid homeostasis. With machine learning, we identified interesting allostatic patterns.

A5: I changed it up this summer. I started by walking the dog twice a day and throwing some slow a$$ jog intervals in on those "walks." My only long runs have been Saturdays with the group. I finished my Oct. half marathon at a pace similar to my 2022 pace, before the #takotsubo episodes. #runchat
11km recovery, battery 🪫, heart feels better, autumn weather, holding pace back. #runsky #running #takotsubo
11km recovery. My Max HR is jumping over 193…my normal Max is 182…so my heart is still not back to its physiological size apparently…uff :/. Well one km at a time. Ducks 🦆 #skyrun #running #takotsubo

💔 Did you know you can literally die of a broken heart? It’s called Takotsubo syndrome, and it happens when sudden stress or grief makes the heart muscle weaken.

A few weeks ago, even though it was mid-summer in central Ohio, it felt like fall. Due to my three #Takotsubo #cardiac episodes (aka #brokenheartsyndrome), I'm on #betablockers and they make me more sensitive to temperature variations. My runner friends laughed, but layers made me happy. #runchat
Photo of Alum Creek running and bike trail in central Ohio shows a stretch of paved trail lined by grass and tall, deciduous trees. Very green.
Brag: Shouldn't be a brag. Just another training run, but yesterday's nine-miler was a distance and pace PR for 2025. Still afraid this "comeback" will end, but so far, so good. #comebackkid #cardiacrecovery #runchat #takotsubo #brokenheartsyndrome
