[PMID: 36503400 DOI: 10.1080/00207454.2022.2157724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Revised: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) patients are still at risk of postoperative ischemic complications (PICs) after surgery. In addition, the proportion of patients receiving antiplatelet therapy (APT) in ICH patients increased significantly with age. This study aims to evaluate the impact of preoperative antiplatelet therapy on PICs in ICH patients. METHODS This is a cohort study that retrospectively analyzed the data of ICH patients who underwent surgical treatment. PICs rate was compared between patients with preoperative ATP and those without preoperative ATP. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to evaluate the impact of preoperative APT on PICs. In addition, Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and the impact of PICs on patients' postoperative outcomes was evaluated. RESULTS A total of 216 patients were included in this study. There were 47 patients (21.76%) with preoperative APT; 169 patients (78.24%) without preoperative APT. The incidence of PICs in the APT group was significantly higher when compared with that in the nAPT group (36.17% vs. 20.71%, p = 0.028<0.05). Furthermore, significant differences were both observed in multivariate analysis (p = 0.035<0.05) and survival analysis (log rank χ2 = 5.415, p = 0.020<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the outcomes of patients suffering from PICs and that of patients not suffering from PICs (p = 0.377 > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, preoperative APT may be a risk factor for PICs in ICH patients undergoing surgical treatment significantly.

Abstract
A significant proportion of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) suffer from physical and mental disorders which lead to the decline of sleep profile. Sleep disorders are highly prevalent in these patients. But the effect of sleep on the outcomes of post-PCI patients remains unclear. We aim to examine the individual and joint effects of sleep quality and sleep duration on the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in post-PCI patients. We included 314 participants who were diagnosed with a first CAD and underwent PCI with drug-eluting stents and followed up for a mean duration of 341 days to assess major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Sleep quality, based on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, was categorized as good (a score of ≤7) or poor (>7). Sleep duration was categorized into three classes: ≤ 5, 6-8 (reference group) and ≥ 9 hours per day. The log-rank test and the Cox regression model were used for data analysis. MACEs occurred in 26 (8.3%) patients. Subjects whose sleep duration was ≤ 5 hours per day had a shorter time to MACEs than those whose sleep duration was 6-8 hours (p = 0.036). A significantly increased risk for MACEs was observed for participants with a ≤ 5 hours sleep duration (HR = 2.18, 95% CI = 1.02-4.64) after adjustment for demographic and clinical confounders. Associations between long sleep duration (≥ 9 hours), sleep quality, or their joint effect and MACEs were not found. This suggests the importance of considering sleep loss when developing strategies to improve health outcomes of PCI patients. And further researches are needed to examine the effects of different aspects of sleep quality on the prognosis of PCI patients and explore the reasons that lead to the decline of sleep profile.

Abstract
Stent thrombosis (ST) is a frequently reported complication in cardiac patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) that adversely impacts their prognostic outcomes. Medical literature reveals several baseline characteristics of PCI patients that may predict their predisposition to ST and its potential complications. Our systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the diagnostic significance of these baseline parameters in terms of determining the risk of ST among adult patients with PCI. We statistically evaluated 18 baseline characteristics of more than 15,500 PCI patients to delineate their stent thrombosis attribution. We included a number of articles focusing on baseline parameters in-stent thrombosis-related PCI scenarios. We explored the articles of interest based on inclusion/exclusion parameters across PubMed, JSTOR, Cochrane library, Google Scholar, and Embase. Medical subject headings (MeSH) words included “stent thrombosis,” “percutaneous coronary intervention,” and “coronary stenting.” We extracted the research articles published between 2005 and 2021 on April 20, 2021. The included studies also focused on procedures and clinical factors concerning their association with PCI-related ST. Our findings ruled out the progression of abnormal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)-related stent thrombosis in PCI patients (odds ratio {OR}: 9.68, 95% CI: 1.88-49.90, p=0.007). We found an insignificant clinical correlation between stent thrombosis and PCI in the setting of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Our study outcomes further revealed the absence of stent thrombosis in PCI patients with antiplatelet prescription (OR: 32.42, 95% CI: 21.28-49.39). The findings affirmed the absence of ST in PCI patients receiving aspirin therapy (OR: 32.77, 95% CI: 18.73-57.34; OR: 4.59, 95% CI: 1.97-10.73). The majority of the included studies negated the clinical correlation of stent thrombosis with diabetes mellitus in the setting of PCI (OR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.06-3.78). Our study did not reveal statistically significant results based on stent thrombosis in PCI patients with drug-eluting stents (OR: 2.91, 95% CI: 0.35-24.49). The findings also did not reveal the impact of cardiac biomarker elevation on stent thrombosis in PCI patients (OR: 8.42, 95% CI: 2.54-27.98, p=0.0005). Eight studies revealed a statistically insignificant correlation between myocardial infarction and stent thrombosis in PCI scenarios (OR: 2.69, 95% CI: 0.89-8.11, p=0.08). The clinical correlation between PCI and stent thrombosis/major bleeding in the setting of hypertension also proved statistically insignificant at 0.67 (OR: 1.31, 95% CI: 0.38-4.51, p=0.97). The study findings did not correlate mean body mass index and multivessel coronary artery disease with ST in PCI scenarios (OR: 1.98, 95% CI: 0.02-239.58, p=0.78; OR: 1.09, 95% CI: 0.58-2.04, p=0.80). Only two studies revealed statistically significant results confirming stent thrombosis in PCI patients with a prior history of PCI (OR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.23-1.06; OR: 0.33, 95% CI: 0.02-5.59; p=0.03). Our findings question the clinical significance of baseline characteristics in terms of predicting stent thrombosis in PCI patients. The results support the requirement of future studies to investigate complex interactions between procedural, medicinal, genetic, and patient-related factors contributing to the development of stent thrombosis in PCI patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Lack of structural equality is a major issue to be addressed in observational studies. Their major disadvantage of these studies compared to randomized controlled trials is the vulnerability towards confounding, but they often better mirror real world patients and, therefore, entail an increased external validity. Numerous approaches have been developed to account for confounding in observational research, including multiple regression, subgroup analysis and matched cohort designs. The latter has been often described as a useful tool if large control data sets are available. METHODS In this paper we present a hierarchical matching algorithm entailing two stages which enables a multicentric matched cohort study to be conducted. In particular, the algorithm defines the matching strategy as a combination of exact matching and a subsequent consideration of further matching variables to be controlled using a distance measure (e.g. the propensity score). RESULTS The algorithm is applied to a study in interventional cardiology and demonstrates high flexibility and usefulness with regard to the aim of finding comparable cases of exposed and non-exposed patients from observational data. The algorithm increased structural equality by balancing the most important covariates which might be of different importance for the matching process. CONCLUSION The implementation of the algorithm in the statistical software SAS offers high flexibility regarding an application to various data analysis projects. Specifically, it provides a broader range of features (e.g. diverse distance measures) when compared to other existing solutions for conducting matched cohort analyses.

Abstract
Drug-eluting stents have been widely used in the clinic because of their impressive ability to reduce restenosis. However, the conventional biodegradable polymers used for drug-loaded coatings undergo bulk erosion, which can induce internal catalysis, resulting in a high local acidity during the degradation process and unfavorable side-effects. Herein, poly(1,3-trimethylene carbonate), a surface eroding biodegradable polymer, was chosen as a drug-loaded coating for cardiovascular stents. We modified both sides of the stent to simultaneously promote re-endothelialization at the inner layer and reduce restenosis at the outer layer, using a titanium oxide (Ti-O) film as the inner layer and a Ti-O film/drug coating as the outer layer. In vitro and in vivo results indicated that the Ti-O film accelerated endothelial cell growth and re-endothelialization, and the drug coating inhibited platelet adhesion, activation, and aggregation, smooth muscle cell proliferation, and significantly reduced neointimal hyperplasia. Therefore, this novel stent may have potential as a cardiovascular stent to treat patients with coronary artery stenosis.
