Abstract
PURPOSE Revascularization of both endovascular therapy (EVT) and surgical reconstruction improve clinical outcomes of patients with critical limb ischemia (CLI); however, treatment of dialysis-dependent patients with CLI is still challenging. This study aimed to investigate the impact of dialysis-related parameters on the risk of mortality in dialysis-dependent patients undergoing revascularization for CLI. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively identified 274 dialysis-dependent patients with CLI (196 males; mean age 71 years), who underwent revascularization, from the clinical database of the surgical reconstruction vs peripheral intervention in patients with critical limb ischemia (SPINACH) study, which was a prospective, multicenter, observational study. Of these patients, 175 patients underwent EVT and 99 patients received surgical reconstruction. The current study evaluated the impact of dialysis vintage and renal biomarkers on the mortality rate of dialysis-dependent patients with CLI undergoing revascularization. RESULTS During a mean follow-up period of 1.7 ± 1.1 years, 147 deaths were observed. The 3-year overall survival rate and its standard error were estimated to be 40.5% ± 8.1% using the Kaplan-Meier method. A Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that dialysis vintage ≥4 years, serum creatinine levels <4.7 mg/dL, serum urea nitrogen ≥88 mg/dL, and calcium-phosphate product ≥62.6 mg2/dL2 were independent risk factors for mortality after adjustment for the detailed mortality risk score developed in the SPINACH study. Adding these parameters to the original mortality risk score slightly, but not significantly, increased the area under the time-dependent receiver operating characteristics curve from 0.74 (95% CI, 0.67 to 0.81) to 0.77 (0.71 to 0.84) (p=0.084), whereas continuous net reclassification improvement reached 0.75 (0.12 to 0.90) (p=0.027). CONCLUSION We found that long dialysis vintage, low serum creatinine, high serum urea nitrogen, and high calcium-phosphate product were independently associated with the increased risk of mortality in dialysis-dependent patients with CLI undergoing revascularization.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have worse adverse cardiovascular outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Clinical outcomes comparing a limus-eluting stent (LES) to a paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) in patients with CKD remain controversial.A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library. A pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to calculate original data. We conducted heterogeneity, quality assessment, and publication bias analyses.A total of 17 trials involving 10,724 patients were included. No significant differences were found regarding target vessel revascularization, target lesion revascularization (TLR), stent thrombosis (ST), myocardial infarction (MI), all-cause mortality, and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) between first-generation LES implantation and PES implantation. Second-generation LES implantation was associated with lower rates of all-cause mortality (OR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.39-0.82; P = 0.003), MACE (OR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.38-0.97; P = 0.04), and ST (OR, 0.45; 95% CI, 0.26-0.77; P = 0.004) compared with PES implantation. In all, the long-term all-cause mortality rate was significantly lower after LES implantation than after PES implantation in patients with CKD (OR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.66-0.93; P = 0.004). However, second-generation LES implantation resulted in a higher rate of TLR (OR, 2.23; 95% CI, 1.53-3.25; P < 0.001) than PES implantation in dialysis patients.In patients with CKD, first-generation LES and PES implantation had comparable mortality and morbidity. Second-generation LES implantation was superior to PES in reducing long-term mortality, MACE, and ST. However, PES may be more effective than LES in dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND C-reactive protein (CRP) is significantly associated with cardiovascular diseases; however, whether CRP plays a causal role in coronary artery disease has yet to be determined. In addition, the relationship between CRP, atherosclerosis, and inflammation remains controversial. METHODS AND RESULTS Serum interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, and CRP levels were determined in 160 patients at time points around percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stent implantation. The levels were found to be at peak at 24 h post-PCI and gradually declined to the level before PCI at day 30 post-PCI. These inflammation markers around PCI have no statistical difference in the different postdilation pressures (≤14, 14-18, and ≥18 atm) and stent number (1 and ≥2 stents) groups. Treatment of cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) with a combination of IL-6 and IL-1β at concentrations associated with PCI did not result in any significant change in the CRP mRNA levels. The IL-6-augmented CRP expression in human internal mammary arteries (IMAs) stretched with a mechanical strength of 3 g was blocked by the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) peptide inhibitor SN50 and not by the inactive SN50 analog SN50M. IL-6 treatment increased NF-κB activity in human IMAs stretched with 3 g, and this effect was further blocked by stretch-activated channel (SAC) inhibitors (streptomycin or GdCl3) and SN50. CONCLUSIONS The current study provides evidence that increased serum IL-6, IL-1β, and CRP levels around PCI are not different between different postdilation pressure and stent number groups. The combination of IL-6 and IL-1β at concentrations associated with PCI cannot induce CRP expression in human VSMCs, but they can augment mechanical strain-induced CRP synthesis via the SAC-NF-κB pathway in human IMAs.

Abstract
Adhesion molecules play an important role in inflammation, atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD). These molecules are expressed on the surface of dysfunctional endothelial cells, causing inflammatory cells from the circulation to adhere and migrate through the endothelium. Their expression is upregulated in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The contact between stent struts and endothelium upregulates endothelial cell gene expression, endothelial cell activation and inflammation. The paclitaxel or sirolimus eluting stents inhibited expression of adhesion molecules in several studies and reduced the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) after drug-eluting stent (DES) over bare metal stent (BMS) implantation. Therefore, we propose that elevated serum levels of the soluble adhesion molecules after primary PCI in patients treated with BMS or DES implantation versus drug-coated balloon (DCB) application to the vulnerable coronary plaque might be a predictor of MACE and further adverse outcomes. Consequently, DCB-only strategy in patients with ACS might be a superior approach in comparison to BMS implantation and non-inferior approach when compared to DES implantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcome of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been reported to be poor in hemodialysis (HD) patients even in the drug-eluting stent era. We have reported relatively poor outcomes after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation in the OUCH study. METHODS The OUCH-TL study is a prospective, non-randomized, single-arm registry designed to assess the results of paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) in HD patients with follow-up quantitative coronary angiography analysis. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of target-vessel failure (TVF) defined as cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), and target-vessel revascularization (TVR) at 12 months. RESULTS A total of 119 patients with 154 lesions were enrolled (one withdrawal). Mean age was 65±10 years, male gender was 79%, 89% of cases had stable coronary disease. Diabetic nephropathy was diagnosed in 61% of the patients. American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association type B2/C accounted for 96% of lesions and 22.7% of lesions were treated with Rotablator (Boston Scientific Corporation, Natick, MA, USA). Rates of TVF, death, MI, stent thrombosis and TVR at 12 months were 20.2%, 5.9%, 5.0%, 1.4%, and 12.6%, respectively. TVR was performed in 8.4% of the patients up to 12 months. Late loss in-stent was 0.48±0.61mm, and late loss in-segment was 0.37±0.61mm at 9 months. Binary restenosis in-stent was 10.3% and in-segment was 14.5%. CONCLUSIONS Outcomes of PES implantation in hemodialysis patients appears comparable to those of non-hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) utilizing drug-eluting stents is becoming a very common revascularization technique in the dialysis cohort; therefore, we sought to identify the impact of dialysis on outcomes in this group of patients. This is a multicenter registry comparing results of 290 patients (186 with normal kidney function, 104 on dialysis) who underwent PCI with exclusive use of paclitaxel-eluting TAXUS stent. The primary endpoint was an assessment of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 1- and 2-year observation. Mean follow-up was 23.3 ± 6.1 months. Results at 12 months showed: MACE 11.8% vs. 7.7% (P = not significant [ns]), composite major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) 12.4% vs. 11.5% (P = ns), all-cause death 2.7% vs. 8.6% (P < 0.05), cardiac death 2.7% vs. 1.9% (P = ns), target vessel revascularization (TVR) 9.1% vs. 6.7% (P = ns), acute myocardial infarction (AMI) 3.8% vs. 2.9% (P = ns), cerebrovascular events (CVA) 0.5% vs. 1.0% (P = ns); and results at 24 months showed: MACE 17.7% vs. 18.3% (P = ns), MACCE 21.5% vs. 26.0% (P = ns), all-cause death 4.3% vs. 14.4% (P < 0.01), cardiac death 3.2% vs. 1.9% (P = ns), TVR 14.0% vs. 16.3% (P = ns), AMI 5.4% vs. 5.8% (P = ns), CVA 3.2% vs. 2.9% (P = ns) for non-end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and dialysis group, respectively. Prior coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) was found to be single risk factor for MACE, TVR, and MACCE in patients with ESRD, while dialysis and prior CABG were found to be single risk factors for death in the entire population. PCI with TAXUS is a feasible procedure and presents promising results in dialysis-dependent patients.

Abstract
Accelerated atherosclerosis in prolonged maintenance hemodialysis (HD) has been recognized; however, whether HD duration is associated with poor clinical outcome in HD patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation is unknown. We evaluated the impact of HD duration on clinical outcomes in HD patients with CAD after DES implantation. Between April 2007 and December 2012, 168 angina pectoris patients (320 de novo lesions) on HD were treated with DES. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and target lesion revascularization (TLR) were investigated at 3 years according to the HD duration (≤ 3 years, 83 patients; >3 years, 85 patients). The incidence of MACE was significantly higher in the long HD duration group (25.3 vs. 50.6 %; P = 0.001). Especially, sudden cardiac death (SCD) was significantly higher in the long HD duration group (3.6 vs. 16.5 %; P = 0.006). On the other hand, the rates of TLR were similar between the two groups (12.0 vs. 14.1 %; P = 0.69). Cox's proportional hazard analysis revealed that HD duration (HR 1.08 per year, 95 % CI 1.03-1.13, P = 0.002), β-blocker use (0.28, 0.17-0.46, P < 0.001), and diabetes mellitus (2.10, 1.23-3.56, P = 0.007) were independent predictors of MACE. Longer HD duration did not affect TLR; however, SCD was significantly higher in the long HD duration group.

Abstract
This study evaluates the predictive value of several biochemical indices of the coagulation-fibrinolysis system, platelet function, and inflammatory state for angina recurrence after successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). We measured preprocedural and follow-up plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen, and urokinase plasminogen activator antigen (uPA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) activity, tissue plasminogen activator activity, and adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation in 53 patients with chronic stable angina who underwent successful elective PTCA of single hemodynamically significant lesions in coronary arteries. All patients were followed up for 12 months after PTCA. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association of variables with angina recurrence rate. At the end of the follow-up, 16 patients had angina recurrence. Among 36 clinical, biochemical, and angiographic variables, the duration of stable angina more than 12 months before PTCA (χ (2) = 5.73; P = 0.02, hazard ratio (HR) 3.7, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.26-10.6), high baseline levels of CRP (>7 mg/l) (χ (2) = 8.34; P = 0.004, HR 2.9, 95 % CI 1.4-5.9), uPA antigen baseline (>1 ng/ml) (χ (2) = 17.11; P = 0.0001, HR 11.5, 95 % CI 3.6-36.7) and 48 h after PTCA (χ (2) = 15.73; P = 0.0001, HR 8.8, 95 % CI 3.01-25.96), baseline PAI-1 activity (>18 IU/ml) (χ (2) = 9.37; P = 0.002, HR 7.6, 95 % CI 2.07-27.84) were significant predictors of recurrent angina by univariate analyses. According to stepwise multivariate analyses, only the levels of plasma uPA antigen and serum CRP were shown to be significant independent predictors of angina recurrence (multivariate uPA χ (2) = 8.22, P = 0.004, HR 6.2, 95 % CI 1.78-21.67; CRP χ (2) = 4.09, P = 0.04, HR 1.9, 95 % CI 1.02-3.68). High preprocedural plasma uPA and serum CRP levels are indicative of angina recurrence after successful PTCA, and are valuable for the prognosis of restenosis.

Abstract
Recent advances in drug-eluting stent (DES) technology have succeeded in preventing restenosis. In addition to inhibiting smooth muscle cell proliferation, DES greatly inhibits the local inflammatory response in the acute phase after implantation, leading to prevention of restenosis. However, a unique issue in DES implantation is an impairment of reendothelialization, which may result in abnormal wound healing. Consequently, a late-phase inflammatory relapse could appear in the long term after DES implantation. In this study, we measured serum levels of inflammatory markers, including interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, matrix metalloproteinase-9, and myeloperoxidase, as well as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein at follow-up coronary angiography (mean 9 months) in 54 patients who received DES stenting who did not experience restenosis, and compared them with 51 patients receiving bare-metal stents (BMS) without restenosis. The level of IL-6 was over the measurement threshold (≥2.22 pg/ml) in 12 patients (21 %) in the DES group, but in only 2 patients (4 %) in the BMS group (P = 0.003). IL-8 was significantly higher in the DES group than in the BMS group (4.51 ± 2.40 vs 3.84 ± 1.34 pg/ml, P = 0.015). The levels of other biomarkers were similar between the two groups. DES showed an increase in inflammatory cytokines in the late phase after implantation in comparison with patients who received BMS, suggesting late-stage inflammation. Therefore, the wound-healing response after DES implantation might be different from that after BMS.
