Prognostic impact of in-stent restenosis in normal weight, overweight, and obese patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2024; 103:260-267. [PMID: 38173300 DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30939] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), in-stent restenosis (ISR) is related with a worse prognosis, while higher body mass index (BMI) values are associated with better outcomes. It is unclear whether the prognostic impact of ISR varies in function of BMI. METHODS Patients undergoing PCI at a large center from 2012 to 2019 not presenting with an acute myocardial infarction (MI) were included. Subjects with BMI < 18.5 kg/m2 or treated with bare metal stents were excluded. Patients were stratified according to type of lesion treated (ISR vs. no-ISR) and into four BMI categories: normal weight (BMI 18.5-25 kg/m2 ), overweight (25.0-29.9 kg/m2 ), class I obesity (30.0-34.9 kg/m2 ), class II-III obesity (≥35.0 kg/m2 ). The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), a composite of all-cause death, MI, and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 1 year. RESULTS Out of 16,234 patients, 3694 (23%) underwent PCI for ISR. ISR as compared to no-ISR was associated with a consistent increased risk of MACE within the normal weight (18.8% vs. 7.8%, adj. hazard ratio (HR): 1.99, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.51-2.64), overweight (19.1% vs. 6.4%, adj. HR: 2.35, 95% CI: 1.91-2.88), class I obesity (18.3% vs. 6.8%, adj. HR: 1.95, 95% CI: 1.47-2.57), and class II-III obesity (16.4% vs. 7.4%, adj. HR: 1.61, 95% CI: 1.09-2.37) groups (interaction p-value: 0.192). The ISR-related risks were mostly driven by an excess of TVR. CONCLUSIONS At 1 year, ISR was associated with an increased risk of MACE irrespective of BMI, mostly due to an excess of TVR after ISR.

Clin Res Cardiol 2023:10.1007/s00392-023-02298-x. [PMID: 37695528 DOI: 10.1007/s00392-023-02298-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Recently, interventional techniques and material to treat chronic total occlusion (CTO) with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have evolved significantly. Nevertheless, it is still unknown whether this progress improved treatment success and patients' outcome. In a nationwide sample, we sought to analyze trends of patients' characteristics, complications and in-hospital case-fatality of patients undergoing CTO revascularization in Germany. METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed data on characteristics, treatments, and in-hospital outcomes for all coronary artery disease (CAD) patients (ICD-code I25) undergoing dual-injection CTO recanalization (OPS procedural code: 8-839.9) in Germany from 2009 to 2020. Overall, 4,998,457 inpatients aged ≥ 18 years with diagnosis of CAD were treated in German hospitals in this period. Among these, 52,879 patients (1.1%) underwent CTO recanalization. Annual number of CTO PCIs increased from 1263 in 2009 to 6435 in 2020 (β 3.48 [95% CI 3.44-3.52]; p < 0.001) in parallel with a significant decrease of case-fatality (2.2% in 2009 to 1.4% in 2020; β - 0.60 [95% CI - 0.82 to - 0.39]; p < 0.001). Overall, 754 (1.4%) patients with CTO recanalization died during the in-hospital stay and in-hospital case-fatality grew exponentially with age (β 0.82 [95% CI 0.73-0.90]; p < 0.001). Significant predictors of in-hospital case fatality with an OR > 3 were cancer, stroke, hemopericardium, acute renal failure, pulmonary embolism and shock. CONCLUSION Annual number of CTO procedures performed in Germany increased from 2009 to 2020 with a concomitant anti-proportional decrease in the case-fatality. Our findings may help to draw more attention to predictors of in-hospital case fatality in patients hospitalized for CTO recanalization.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW The goal of this paper is to review the current evidence surrounding CTO PCI in patients with low EF, the most high-risk population to treat. We also present pertinent case examples and offer practical tips to increase success and lower complications when performing CTO PCI in patients with low EF. RECENT FINDINGS In a prospective randomized control study, greater improvement in angina frequency and quality of life, assessed by the Seattle Angina Questionnaire, was achieved by CTO PCI compared to optimal medical therapy. Furthermore, after successful CTO PCI, improvements in health status were similar in patients with both low and normal EF. CTO PCI can not only ameliorate symptoms of angina in patients with low EF but may also potentially improve EF in carefully selected populations. However, information regarding treatment of this high-risk population is lacking and large-scale studies targeting patients with severely reduced EF remain necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with metabolic syndrome which increases further risk of coronary artery disease and adverse cardiovascular events. Impact of body mass index (BMI) on long-term outcome in patients with coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) is less clear. METHOD AND RESULTS From January 2005 to November 2020, a total of 1301 patients with coronary angiographic confirmed CTO were enrolled in our study. Patients were divided into two groups: low BMI group: 18-24.99 kg/m2 and high BMI group ≥25 kg/m2 . Clinical outcomes were 3-year all-cause mortality, 3-year cardiovascular mortality and 3-year non-fatal myocardial infarct. During the 3-year follow-up period, all-cause mortality was significantly higher in patients with low BMI group compared to those in high BMI groups (14% vs. 6%, p = .0001). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed patients with high BMI groups had significant better survival compared with those in low BMI group (p = .0001). In multivariate analysis, higher BMI was independently associated with decreased risk of 3-year all-cause mortality (Hazard ratio [HR]: 0.534; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.349-0.819, p = .004) after controlling for age, renal function, prior history of stroke, coronary artery bypass graft, co-morbidities with peripheral arterial disease, heart failure and revascularization status for CTO. In propensity-matched multivariate analysis, high BMI remained a significant predictor of 3-year all-cause mortality (HR, 0.525; 95% CI, 0.346-0.795, p = .002). CONCLUSION Higher BMI was associated with better long-term outcome in patients with coronary CTO.

Abstract
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly transmissible virus with significant global impact, morbidity, and mortality. The SARS-CoV-2 virus may result in widespread organ manifestations including acute respiratory distress syndrome, acute renal failure, thromboembolism, and myocarditis. Virus-induced endothelial injury may cause endothelial activation, increased permeability, inflammation, and immune response and cytokine storm. Endothelial dysfunction is a systemic disorder that is a precursor of atherosclerotic vascular disease that is associated with cardiovascular risk factors and is highly prevalent in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular and peripheral disease. Several studies have associated various viral infections including SARS-CoV-2 infection with inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and subsequent innate immune response and cytokine storm. Noninvasive monitoring of endothelial function and identification of high-risk patients who may require specific therapies may have the potential to improve morbidity and mortality associated with subsequent inflammation, cytokine storm, and multiorgan involvement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of chronic total coronary occlusions (CTO) carries the highest radiation exposure among percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). In order to minimize radiation damage, we need to understand and optimize the contribution of all components of radiation exposure. METHODS A total of 1000 CTO procedures performed between 2011 and 2020 were compared according to implemented radiation modifications. Group 1 used the original set-up of the X-ray equipment (Artis Zee, Siemens). In group 2 a modified protocol aimed at reducing the fluoroscopy exposure, in group 3 further modifications aimed at reducing cineangiographic exposure. RESULTS Despite an increased lesion complexity, Air Kerma (AK) was reduced from 2619 mGy (1653-4574) in group 1 to 2178 mGy (1332-3500; p < 0.001) in group 2 by mainly reducing fluoroscopic contribution by 54.1%, the cineangiographic contribution was lowered by only 6.6%. In group 3 AK dropped drastically to 746 mGy (480-1225; p < 0.001) mainly by reducing the cineangiographic contribution by 53.4%, still there was a further reduction of fluoroscopy contribution of 8.2%. This also led to a reduction of the skin entry dose from 1038 mGy (690-1589) in group 2 to 359 mGy (204-591; p < 0.001) in group 3. This was achieved both in normal weight and obese patients, and both in antegrade and retrograde procedures. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrates that by modifying both the fluoroscopic and cineangiographic contribution to radiation exposure a drastic reduction of radiation risk can be achieved, even in obese patients. Currently accepted radiation thresholds may no longer be a limit for CTO PCI.

Abstract
To perform chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention safely, efficiently, and successfully, adequate time must be dedicated to thorough preprocedural planning. This process should encompass a patient encounter, becoming fully familiarized with the patient's clinical traits, a detailed review of coronary anatomy, laying out an algorithmic procedural approach and making any relevant plans for actions that will enhance intraprocedural safety.
