J Clin Med 2023; 12:6598. [PMID: 37892735 PMCID: PMC10607017 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12206598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Our objective was to compare long-term outcomes in patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) between two time periods in Southern Norway. There are limited contemporary data comparing long-term follow-up after revascularization in the last decades. This prospective follow-up study consecutively included both NSTEMI and STEMI patients during two time periods, 2014-2015 and 2004-2009. Patients were followed up for a period of 5 years. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality after 1 and 5 years. A total of 539 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), 316 with NSTEMI (234 included in 2014 and 82 included in 2007) and 223 with STEMI (160 included in 2014 and 63 included in 2004). Mortality after NSTEMI was high and remained unchanged during the two time periods (mortality rate at 1 year: 3.5% versus 4.9%, p = 0.50; and 5 years: 11.4% versus 14.6%, p = 0.40). Among STEMI patients, all-cause mortality at 1 year was reduced in 2014 compared to 2004 (1.3% versus 11.1%, p < 0.001; and 5 years: 7.0% versus 22.2%, p = 0.004, respectively). Time to coronary angiography in NSTEMI patients remained unchanged between 2014 and 2007 (28.2 h [IQR 18.1-46.3] versus 30.3 h [IQR 18.0-48.3], p = 0.20), while time to coronary angiography in STEMI patients was improved in 2014 compared with 2004 (2.8 h [IQR 2.0-4.8] versus 21.7 h [IQR 5.4-27.1], p < 0.001), respectively. During one decade of AMI treatment, mortality in patients with NSTEMI remained unchanged while mortality in STEMI patients decreased, both at 1 and 5 years.

Abstract
Cardiac troponins (cTn) are routinely measured for the diagnosis and prognosis of myocardial infarction (MI). The relation between troponin levels, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), postinfarction heart failure (HF), and mortality is unclear in patients with kidney impairment. This is a retrospective, cross-sectional study of patients presenting to the Emergency Department at a single tertiary center. Participants presenting with confirmed type I MI from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021, were analyzed from the Myocardial Ischemia National Audit Project database. Main outcomes were acute HF, measured using Killip class, and inpatient mortality. Peak cardiac troponin T (cTnT) level was a secondary outcome. Data on 2,815 patients (67±14 years, 28% female) were analyzed. Ordinal logistic regression analysis was used to test for predictors of increasing Killip class. Binary logistic regression was used to test for predictors of inpatient mortality. Analysis of a sub-sample matched for age and diabetes mellitus status showed increased mortality in patients with eGFR <60 ml/min/1.73 m2 (12.2% vs 4.4%, p <0.001). Multivariate predictors of acute HF included log-transformed peak cTnT, eGFR, body mass index (BMI), and diabetes mellitus status. Multivariate predictors of inpatient mortality included log-transformed peak cTnT, eGFR, age, BMI, and Killip class 3/4. On multivariate analysis, eGFR, ST-elevation MI diagnosis, BMI, male gender, diabetes mellitus status, and hypertension were all predictive of peak cTnT after MI. In conclusion, peak cTnT level and eGFR at presentation after MI are independent predictors of acute HF severity and death in patients with and without kidney impairment.

Outcomes in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients according to heart failure at admission: Insights from a large trial with systematic early invasive strategy. EUROPEAN HEART JOURNAL. ACUTE CARDIOVASCULAR CARE 2020; 10:2048872619896205. [PMID: 33081496 DOI: 10.1177/2048872619896205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2019] [Accepted: 12/02/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies published before the era of systematic early invasive strategy have reported a higher mortality in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with heart failure. The aim of our study was to compare the clinical characteristics, outcomes and causes of death of patients according to their heart failure status at admission in a large non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction population with planned early invasive management. METHODS We performed a post-hoc analysis of the Treatment of Acute Coronary Syndrome with Otamixaban randomised trial which included non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with systematic coronary angiography within 72 h. Patients were categorised according to presence or absence of heart failure (Killip grade ≥2) at admission. RESULTS A total of 13,172 patients were enrolled, of whom 944 (7.2%) had heart failure. At day 30, death occurred in 213 patients (1.6%) and cardiovascular death was the dominant cause of death in both groups ((with vs without heart failure) 78.8% vs 78.4%, p = 0.94). At six months, death occurred in 90/944 (9.5%) patients with heart failure and 258/12228 patients without heart failure (2.1%) (p < 0.001). After adjustment on Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events risk score, heart failure was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality at day 30 (odds ratio: 1.58; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-2.36, p = 0.02) and at day 180 (odds ratio: 1.77; 95% confidence interval, 1.3-2.42, p < 0.001) as well as of ischaemic complications (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis or stroke at day 30 (odds ratio: 1.28; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.62, p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with heart failure at admission still have worse outcomes than those without heart failure, even with systematic early invasive strategy. Further efforts are needed to improve the prognosis of these high risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a serious complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We explored the excess mortality associated with HF as an early or late complication of AMI and describe changes over time in such excess mortality. METHODS AND RESULTS All patients hospitalized with an incident AMI and without history of prior HF hospitalization were followed up to 1 year after AMI discharge for episodes of HF. New HF episodes were classified as in-hospital HF if diagnosed during the AMI hospitalization or postdischarge HF if diagnosed within 1 year after discharge from the incident AMI. Logistic and Cox regression models were used to explore the excess mortality associated with HF categories. Changes over time in the excess mortality were assessed by testing the interaction between HF status and study year. In-hospital HF increased in-hospital mortality 1.79 times (odds ratio [OR], 1.79; 95% CI: 1.68-1.91). The excess mortality associated with HF increased by 4.3 times from 2001 to 2009 (P interaction<0.001) as a consequence of a greater decline of in-hospital mortality among AMI patients without (9% per year) compared to those with in-hospital HF (3% per year). Postdischarge HF increased all-cause and CVD mortality 5.98 times (hazard ratio, 5.98; 95% CI: 5.39-6.64) and 7.93 times (subhazard ratio, 7.93; 95% CI: 6.84 -9.19), respectively. The relative excess 1-year mortality associated with HF did not change significantly over time. CONCLUSIONS Development of HF-either as an early or late complication of AMI-has a negative impact on patients' survival. Changes in the excess mortality associated with HF are driven by modest improvements in survival among AMI patients with HF as compared to those without HF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary heart disease (CHD) represents often the underlying conditions for the development of heart failure (HF). We aimed at exploring the burden and timing of HF complicating an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), using the total population of AMI patients hospitalized during 2001-2009 in Norway. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 86 771 patients with a first AMI during 2001-2009 and without previous HF were identified in the "Cardiovascular Disease in Norway" project and followed until HF development, death, or December 31, 2009. In 16 219 patients (18.7%), HF was present on admission or developed during hospitalization for the incident AMI. HF occurrence varied according to age (8.9%, 15.2%, and 25.6% among men and 10.2%, 16.8%, and 27.1% among women ages 25-54, 55-74, and 75-85 years). Among 63 853 patients discharged alive without HF, 8058 (12.6%) were hospitalized with or died because of HF during a median follow-up time of 3.2 years. HF incidence rates (IRs) per 1000 person-years during follow-up were 31 (95% CI, 30-32) for men and 46 (95% CI, 44-47) for women (P<0.01). IRs of HF were highest during the first 6 months of follow-up, after which they leveled off and remained stable until the end of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS In this nation-wide cohort study, we observed that HF remains a frequent complication of the first AMI; both during the acute phase and shortly after the discharge from the hospital.

Abstract
The Killip classification of acute heart failure was developed decades ago to predict short-term mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The aim of this study was to determine the long-term prognosis of acute heart failure graded according to the Killip classification in 15,235 unselected patients hospitalized for AMI from 2000 to 2005. Vital status for each patient was ascertained, through to March 1, 2012, from linkage with national death records. A stepwise gradient in the adjusted hazard ratio (HR) for 12-year mortality was observed with increasing Killip class: class I (n = 10,123), HR 1.00 (reference group); class II (n = 2,913), HR 1.13 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06 to 1.21); class III (n = 1,217) HR 1.49 (95% CI 1.37 to 1.62); and class IV (n = 898), HR 2.80 (95% CI 2.53 to 3.10). Unexpectedly, in a landmark analysis excluding deaths <30 days after admission, patients in Killip class IV had lower adjusted long-term mortality than those in class III. The adjusted HR for 12-year mortality comparing Killip class IV with Killip class III in patients <60 years of age was 1.71 (95% CI 1.33 to 2.19, p <0.001) and in patients >60 years of age was 2.30 (95% CI 2.07 to 2.56, p <0.001). In conclusion, on the basis of simple clinical features, the Killip classification robustly predicted 12-year mortality after AMI. The heterogeneity in early versus late risk in patients with Killip class IV heart failure underscores the importance of appropriate early treatment in cardiogenic shock.

Abstract
Up to 15% of patients with NSTEMI present at admission with heart failure. Scientific evidence for its management is limited but much progress has been made during the last years. Our purpose was to review the last data concerning heart failure in NSTEMI and perform an update on the subject, with the following findings as main highlights. As Killip classes III and IV, Killip class II onset in the context of NSTEMI has also proven bad prognosis significance. Beta-blocker therapy has proven benefit to patients with Killip class II in observational studies and small trials. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor therapy shows stronger evidence of benefit in patients with heart failure than in patients without it. Eplerenone is indicated for patients with left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure or diabetes mellitus. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators improve survival in patients with severe ventricular dysfunction after a myocardial infarction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy indications must be carefully assessed due to the high rate of implants that do not fulfill guidelines indications. In conclusion, heart failure during a NSTEMI is a common and meaningful situation which warrants careful management and further investigation to reach stronger evidence for clinical recommendations.
