Abstract
Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome characterized by low cardiac output leading to end-organ hypoperfusion. Organ dysoxia ranging from transient organ injury to irreversible organ failure and death occurs across all CS etiologies but differing by incidence and type. Herein, we review the recognition and management of respiratory, renal and hepatic failure complicating CS. We also discuss unmet needs in the CS care pathway and future research priorities for generating evidence-based best practices for the management of extra-cardiac sequelae. The complexity of CS admitted to the contemporary cardiac intensive care unit demands a workforce skilled to care for these extra-cardiac critical illness complications with an appreciation for how cardio-systemic interactions influence critical illness outcomes in afflicted patients.

Cytoprotection as an Innovative Therapeutic Strategy to Cardiogenic Shock: Exploring the Potential of Cytidine-5-Diphosphocholine to Mitigate Target Organ Damage. J Vasc Res 2024; 61:160-165. [PMID: 38776883 DOI: 10.1159/000538946] [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: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preservation of organ function and viability is a crucial factor for survival in cardiogenic shock (CS) patients. There is not information enough on cytoprotective substances that may delay organs damage in CS. We hypothesize that cytidine-5-diphosphocholine (CDP-choline) can act as a cytoprotective pharmacological measure that diminishes the target organ damage. So, we aimed to perform a review of works carried out in our institution to evaluate the effect of therapeutic cytoprotection of the CDP-choline. SUMMARY CDP-choline is an intermediate metabolite in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine. It is also a useful drug for the treatment of acute ischaemic stroke, traumatic brain injury, and neurodegenerative diseases and has shown an excellent pharmacological safety profile as well. We review our institution's work and described the cytoprotective effects of CDP-choline in experimental models of heart, liver, and kidney acute damage, where this compound was shown to diminish reperfusion-induced ventricular arrhythmias, oxidative stress, apoptotic cell death, inflammation, lactic acid levels and to preserve mitochondrial function. KEY MESSAGES We propose that additional research is needed to evaluate the impact of cytoprotective therapy adjuvant to mitigate target organ damage in patients with CS.

Abstract
Cardiogenic shock (CS) can be defined as a range of illnesses that describes a state where cardiac output, which is the blood volume ejected from the left ventricle every minute that leads to tissue perfusion of nutrients, is insufficient in providing adequate oxygenation to the systemic circulation. The incidence of CS on admission has increased in recent years, with the six- and 12-month mortality rates remaining unchanged. The purpose of this literature review is to bring forth several parameters that have been utilized in the past 10 years to predict CS mortality. Further studies to implement these parameters in management algorithms, along with early screenings and advanced treatment options such as mechanical cardiac assist devices, can improve the mortality associated with CS. This literature-based review was conducted by evaluating current research focusing on the clinical presentation of CS and predictors of CS. PubMed served as the primary database for article retrieval due to access. Two searches were conducted: One for clinical presentations and advanced metrics for CS and another for early predictors for CS. Thirteen articles regarding clinical presentation and seven articles regarding early predictors were selected. Three tools/scores and five laboratory tests were identified that allowed clinicians to prognosticate outcomes in patients suffering from CS based on clinical and laboratory presentations. Examining these predictors will allow earlier intervention in the development of CS and potentially help lower the mortality rate of CS. The eventual creation of a scoring system that incorporates multiple metrics discussed in this review can provide the most accurate prognosis of CS, which can lead to more targeted interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiogenic shock (CS) is caused by primary cardiac dysfunction and induced by various and heterogeneous diseases (e.g., acute impairment of cardiac performance, or acute or chronic impairment of cardiac performance). MAIN BODY Although a low cardiac index is a common finding in patients with CS, the ventricular preload, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, central venous pressure, and systemic vascular resistance might vary between patients. Organ dysfunction has traditionally been attributed to the hypoperfusion of the organ due to either progressive impairment of the cardiac output or intravascular volume depletion secondary to CS. However, research attention has recently shifted from this cardiac output ("forward failure") to venous congestion ("backward failure") as the most important hemodynamic determinant. Both hypoperfusion and/or venous congestion by CS could lead to injury, impairment, and failure of target organs (i.e., heart, lungs, kidney, liver, intestines, brain); these effects are associated with an increased mortality rate. Treatment strategies for the prevention, reduction, and reversal of organ injury are warranted to improve morbidity in these patients. The present review summarizes recent data regarding organ dysfunction, injury, and failure. CONCLUSIONS Early identification and treatment of organ dysfunction, along with hemodynamic stabilization, are key components of the management of patients with CS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk-stratifying patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) is a major unmet need. The recently proposed Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) staging system for CS severity lacks uniform criteria defining each stage. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to test parameters that define SCAI stages and explore their utility as predictors of in-hospital mortality in CS. METHODS The CS Working Group registry includes patients from 17 hospitals enrolled between 2016 and 2021 and was used to define clinical profiles for CS. We selected parameters of hypotension and hypoperfusion and treatment intensity, confirmed their association with mortality, then defined formal criteria for each stage and tested the association between both baseline and maximum Stage and mortality. RESULTS Of 3,455 patients, CS was caused by heart failure (52%) or myocardial infarction (32%). Mortality was 35% for the total cohort and higher among patients with myocardial infarction, out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and treatment with increasing numbers of drugs and devices. Systolic blood pressure, lactate level, alanine transaminase level, and systemic pH were significantly associated with mortality and used to define each stage. Using these criteria, baseline and maximum stages were significantly associated with mortality (n = 1,890). Lower baseline stage was associated with a higher incidence of stage escalation and a shorter duration of time to reach maximum stage. CONCLUSIONS We report a novel approach to define SCAI stages and identify a significant association between baseline and maximum stage and mortality. This approach may improve clinical application of the staging system and provides new insight into the trajectory of hospitalized CS patients.

Abstract
Objective: To determine the clinical significance of post-procedural abnormal liver function test (ALFT) on the functional outcomes at 90 days in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Methods: In this retrospective observational study, patients with AIS undergoing MT were enrolled from the Nanjing Stroke Registry Program and the multicenter Captor trial. A favorable outcome was defined as a modified Rankin Scale score 0–2 at 90 days. Predictive models were established by multivariable logistic regression. Improved predictive value of models was assessed by continuous net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI). In addition, multivariable logistic regression and restricted cubic spline were used to analyze dose–response correlations between the severity of ALFT and prognosis. Results: Among 420 patients enrolled, 234 (55.7%) patients were diagnosed as post-procedural ALFT after MT. Patients with post-procedural ALFT had higher National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score on admission (median, 18 vs. 15, p < 0.001) and more pneumonia (65.4 vs. 38.2%, p < 0.001) than those without post-procedural ALFT. Post-procedural ALFT, rather than preprocedural ALFT, was independently associated with favorable outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 0.48; 95% CI 0.28–0.81; p = 0.006). The improvement of predictive model after adding post-procedural ALFT was significant [continuous NRI (value, 0.401; p < 0.001), IDI (value, 0.013; p < 0.001)]. However, the restricted cubic spline indicated no evidence of a dose–response relationship between the severity of post-procedural ALFT and prognosis. Conclusions: In AIS patients treated by MT, post-procedural ALFT was associated with more severe stroke and served as an independent predictor of worse prognosis at 90 days.

Abstract
Background and aims Liver enzymes, including alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), are markers of hepatic dysfunction and fatty liver disease. Although ALT and AST have been suggested as risk factors for cardiovascular disease, their role as predictors of mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been established. The objective of this study was to investigate the predictive value of ALT and AST for mortality in patients with AMI. Methods We analyzed records of 712 patients with AMI and no known liver disease treated at the Department of Cardiovascular Center in the First Hospital of Jilin University. The primary outcome was all-cause in-hospital mortality. Relationships between primary outcome and various risk factors, including serum transaminase levels, were assessed using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results Age (P < 0.001), hypertension (P = 0.034), prior myocardial infarction (P < 0.001), AST (P < 0.001), ALT (P < 0.001), creatinine (P = 0.007), blood urea nitrogen (P = 0.006), and troponin I (P < 0.001) differed significantly between ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-STEMI. The following factors were associated with an increased risk of in-hospital all-cause mortality in patients with AMI: ALT ≥ 2ULN (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 2.240 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.331–3.771]; P = 0.002); age ≥ 65 year (AOR 4.320 [95% CI 2.687–6.947]; P < 0.001); increased fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (AOR 2.319 [95% CI 1.564–3.438]; P < 0.001); elevated D-dimer (AOR 2.117 [95% CI 1.407–3.184]; P < 0.001); elevated fibrinogen (AOR 1.601 [95% CI 1.077–2.380]; P = 0.20); and reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (AOR 2.279 [95% CI 1.519–3.419]; P < 0.001). Conclusions Our findings demonstrated that elevated ALT was independently associated with increased in-hospital all-cause mortality in patients with AMI. Other risk factors were increased age, FPG, D-dimer, and fibrinogen and decreased eGFR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction has a very high mortality. Our present study focuses on serial measurement of lactate during admission due to cardiogenic shock and the prognostic effect of lactate and a relative change in lactate in patients after admission and the institution of intensive care treatment. METHODS AND RESULTS This is a secondary analysis of the CardShock study. Data on lactate at baseline were available on 217 of 219 patients.In the study population, the median baseline lactate was 2.8 mmol/L (min-max range, 0.5-23.1 mmol/L).At admission, lactate was predictive of 30-day mortality with an adjusted Hazard ratio (HR) of 1.20 mmol/L (95% confidence interval, CI 1.14-1.27). Within the first 24 h of admission, baseline lactate remained predictive of 30-day mortality. Lactate at 6 h had a HR of 1.14 (95% CI 1.06-1.24) and corresponding values at 12 and 24 h had a HR of 1.10 (1.04-1.17), and of HR 1.19 (95% CI 1.07-1.32), respectively. A 50% reduction in lactate within 6 h resulted in a HR of 0.82 (95% CI 0.72-0.94). Corresponding hazard ratios at 12 and 24 h, were 0.87 (95% CI 0.76-0.98) and 0.74 (95% CI 0.60-0.91), respectively. CONCLUSION The main findings of the present study are that baseline lactate is a powerful predictor of 30-day mortality, lactate at 6, 12, and 24 h after admission are predictors of 30-day mortality, and a relative change in lactate is a significant predictor of survival within the first 24 h after instituting intensive care treatment adding information beyond the information from baseline values.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiogenic shock is difficult to diagnose due to diverse presentations, overlap with other shock states (i.e. sepsis), poorly understood pathophysiology, complex and multifactorial causes, and varied hemodynamic parameters. Despite advances in interventions, mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock remains high. Emergency clinicians must be ready to recognize and start appropriate therapy for cardiogenic shock early. OBJECTIVE This review will discuss the clinical evaluation and diagnosis of cardiogenic shock in the emergency department with a focus on the emergency clinician. DISCUSSION The most common cause of cardiogenic shock is a myocardial infarction, though many causes exist. It is classically diagnosed by invasive hemodynamic measures, but the diagnosis can be made in the emergency department by clinical evaluation, diagnostic studies, and ultrasound. Early recognition and stabilization improve morbidity and mortality. This review will focus on identification of cardiogenic shock through clinical examination, laboratory studies, and point-of-care ultrasound. CONCLUSIONS The emergency clinician should use the clinical examination, laboratory studies, electrocardiogram, and point-of-care ultrasound to aid in the identification of cardiogenic shock. Cardiogenic shock has the potential for significant morbidity and mortality if not recognized early.

ALT-to-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Predictor of Long-Term Mortality in Patients with Normal Liver Function Presenting Coronary Artery Disease after Undergoing PCI: A Retrospective Cohort Study. J Interv Cardiol 2020; 2020:4713591. [PMID: 32372887 PMCID: PMC7193295 DOI: 10.1155/2020/4713591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2019] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is referred as liver transaminase and predominantly expressed by hepatocytes. Previous evidences showed that high levels of ALT were reversely associated with short- and long-term outcomes in patients with myocardial infarction. Besides, low lymphocyte has been demonstrated to be significantly correlated with adverse clinical outcomes in coronary artery disease (CAD). However, evidences about the relationship between ALT-to-lymphocyte ratio (ALR) and outcomes in CAD patients with normal liver function are limited. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between ALR and clinical outcomes in patients with CAD. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study, and a total of 3561 patients were enrolled in Clinical Outcomes and Risk Factors of Patients with CAD after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), from January 2013 to December 2017. After excluding patients with liver dysfunction, we finally enrolled 2714 patients. These patients were divided into two groups according to ALR value: the lower group (ALR < 14.06, n = 1804) and the higher group (ALR ≥ 14.06, n = 910). The average follow-up time was 37.59 ± 22.24 months. Results We found that there were significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of all-cause mortality (ACM) (P < 0.001) and cardiac mortality (CM) (P=0.010). Kaplan–Meier survival analysis suggested that CAD patients with higher ALR tended to have an increased accumulated risk of ACM and CM (log rank P < 0.001 and P=0.006, respectively). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that ALR was an independent predictor of ACM (hazard ratio (HR) = 2.017 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.289–3.158), P=0.002) and CM (HR = 1.862 (95% CI: 1.047–3.313), P=0.034). We did not find significant difference in the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) between the two groups after adjustments of confounders. Conclusion Our results indicate that ALR is an independent predictor of long-term adverse outcomes in CAD patients who underwent PCI.

Cardiogenic Shock: Reflections at the Crossroad Between Perfusion, Tissue Hypoxia, and Mitochondrial Function. Can J Cardiol 2020; 36:184-196.

Abstract
Cardiogenic shock is classically defined by systemic hypotension with evidence of hypoperfusion and end organ dysfunction. In modern practice, however, these metrics often incompletely describe cardiogenic shock because patients present with more advanced cardiovascular disease and greater degrees of multiorgan dysfunction. Understanding how perfusion, congestion, and end organ dysfunction contribute to hypoxia at the cellular level are central to the diagnosis and management of cardiogenic shock. Although, in clinical practice, increased lactate level is often equated with hypoxia, several other factors might contribute to an elevated lactate level including mitochondrial dysfunction, impaired hepatic and renal clearance, as well as epinephrine use. To this end, we present the evidence underlying the value of lactate to pyruvate ratio as a potential discriminator of cellular hypoxia. We will then discuss the physiological implications of hypoxia and congestion on hepatic, intestinal, and renal physiology. Organ-specific susceptibility to hypoxia is presented in the context of their functional architecture. We discuss how the concepts of contractile reserve, fluid responsiveness, tissue oxygenation, and cardiopulmonary interactions can help personalize the management of cardiogenic shock. Finally, we highlight the limitations of using lactate for tailoring therapy in cardiogenic shock.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite many advances in the management of critically ill patients, cardiogenic shock remains a challenge because it is associated with high mortality. Even if there is no universally accepted definition of cardiogenic shock, end-perfusion organ dysfunction is an obligatory and major criterion of its definition.Organ dysfunction is an indicator that cardiogenic shock is already at an advanced stage and is undergoing a rapid self-aggravating evolution. The aim of the review is to highlight the importance to diagnose and to manage the organ dysfunction occurring in the cardiogenic shock patients by providing the best literature published this year. RECENT FINDINGS The first step is to diagnose the organ dysfunction and to assess their severity. Echo has an important and increasing place regarding the assessment of end-organ impairment whereas no new biomarker popped up. SUMMARY In this review, we aimed to highlight for intensivists and cardiologists managing cardiogenic shock, the recent advances in the care of end-organ dysfunctions associated with cardiogenic shock. The management of organ dysfunction is based on the improvement of the cardiac function by etiologic therapy, inotropes and assist devices but will often necessitate organ supports in hospitals with the right level of equipment and multidisciplinary expertise.

De-Ritis Ratio Improves Long-Term Risk Prediction after Acute Myocardial Infarction. J Clin Med 2018; 7:jcm7120474. [PMID: 30477196 PMCID: PMC6306912 DOI: 10.3390/jcm7120474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2018] [Revised: 10/28/2018] [Accepted: 11/14/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Recent evidence suggested levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), and AST/ALT ratio (De-Ritis ratio) were associated with a worse outcome after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, their value for predicting long-term prognosis remained unknown. Therefore, we investigated the prognostic potential of transaminases on patient outcome after AMI from a long-term perspective. Methods: Data of a large AMI registry including 1355 consecutive patients were analyzed. The Cox regression hazard analysis was used to assess the impact of transaminases and the De-Ritis ratio on long-term mortality. Results: The median De-Ritis ratio for the entire study population was 1.5 (interquartile range [IQR]: 1.0–2.6). After a median follow-up time of 8.6 years, we found that AST (crude hazard ratio (HR) of 1.19 per 1-SD [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.09–1.32; p < 0.001]) and De-Ritis ratio (crude HR of 1.31 per 1-SD [95% CI: 1.18–1.44; p < 0.001]), but not ALT (p = 0.827), were significantly associated with long-term mortality after AMI. After adjustment for confounders independently, the De-Ritis ratio remained a strong and independent predictor for long-term mortality in the multivariate model with an adjusted HR of 1.23 per 1-SD (95% CI: 1.07–1.42; p = 0.004). Moreover, the De-Ritis ratio added prognostic value beyond N-terminal pro-B-Type Natriuretic Peptide, Troponin T, and Creatine Kinase. Conclusion: The De-Ritis ratio is a strong and independent predictor for long-term mortality after AMI. As a readily available biomarker in clinical routine, it might be used to identify patients at risk for fatal cardiovascular events and help to optimize secondary prevention strategies after AMI.
