Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a common procedure for treating coronary artery disease, but it carries a risk of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI). This meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of nicorandil, a hybrid compound with nitrate-like and potassium channel-opening properties, in preventing PMI during PCI. A comprehensive literature search identified 14 studies involving 1,762 patients, with 882 receiving nicorandil and 880 in the control group. The analysis revealed that nicorandil significantly reduced the incidence of PMI (RR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.61-0.86) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (RR: 0.76, 95% CI: 0.58-0.99) compared to the control group. Nicorandil's cardioprotective effects are attributed to its ability to improve coronary blood flow, precondition the myocardium, and reduce oxidative stress and inflammation. These findings suggest that nicorandil could be a valuable adjunctive therapy during PCI, potentially improving patient outcomes. However, the study had limitations, including variations in drug administration methods and a lack of individual-level data for subgroup analysis. Future research should focus on optimizing dosing regimens and administration timing and comparing nicorandil's effectiveness with other cardioprotective agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is associated with a mortality rate of 5%-7%. It is clear that there is an urgent need to develop new drugs that can effectively prevent cardiac reperfusion injury. ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP ) channel openers (KCOs) can be classified as such drugs. RESULTS KCOs prevent irreversible ischemia and reperfusion injury of the heart. KATP channel opening promotes inhibition of apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and stimulation of autophagy. KCOs prevent the development of cardiac adverse remodeling and improve cardiac contractility in reperfusion. KCOs exhibit antiarrhythmic properties and prevent the appearance of the no-reflow phenomenon in animals with coronary artery occlusion and reperfusion. Diabetes mellitus and a cholesterol-enriched diet abolish the cardioprotective effect of KCOs. Nicorandil, a KCO, attenuates major adverse cardiovascular event and the no-reflow phenomenon, reduces infarct size, and decreases the incidence of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with acute myocardial infarction. CONCLUSION The cardioprotective effect of KCOs is mediated by the opening of mitochondrial KATP (mitoKATP ) and sarcolemmal KATP (sarcKATP ) channels, triggered free radicals' production, and kinase activation.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Angina pectoris remains a significant burden despite advances in medical therapy and coronary revascularization. Many patients (up to 30%) with angina have normal coronary arteries, with coronary microvascular disease and/or coronary artery vasospasm being major drivers of the myocardial demand-supply mismatch. Even among patients revascularized for symptomatic epicardial coronary stenosis, recurrent angina remains highly prevalent. Medical therapy for angina currently centers around 2 disparate goals, viz secondary prevention of hard clinical outcomes and symptom control. Vasodilators, such as nitrates, have been first-line antianginal agents for decades, along with beta-blockers and calcium channel blockers. However, efficacy in symptoms control is heterogenous, depending on underlying mechanism(s) of angina in an individual patient, often necessitating multiple agents. Nicorandil (NCO) is an antianginal agent first discovered in the late 1970s with a uniquely dual mechanism of action. Like a typical nitrate, it mediates medium-large vessel vasodilation through nitric oxide. In addition, NCO has adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent potassium channel agonist activity (K ATP ), mediating microvascular dilatation. Hence, it has proven effective in both coronary artery vasospasm and coronary microvascular disease, typically challenging patient populations. Moreover, emerging evidence suggests that cardiomyocyte protection against ischemia through ischemic preconditioning may be mediated through K ATP agonism. Finally, there is now fairly firm evidence in favor of NCO in terms of hard event reduction among patients with stable coronary artery disease, following myocardial infarction, and perhaps even among patients with congestive heart failure. This review aims to summarize the mechanism of action of NCO, its efficacy as an antianginal, and current evidence behind its impact on hard outcomes. Finally, we review other cardiac and emerging noncardiac indications for NCO use.

Myocardial Perfusion in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Influencing Factors and Intervention Strategies. Cureus 2023; 15:e42841.

Abstract
Aim We aim to explore the factors influencing myocardial perfusion in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) and evaluate the effects of different intervention strategies on myocardial perfusion improvement. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 300 patients with STEMI who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) at our hospital between January 2020 and December 2022. Based on post-procedural coronary angiography results using the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) blood flow grade and myocardial blush grade (MBG), patients were categorized into two groups: the normal perfusion group (TIMI grade 3 or MBG 2-3, n=180) and the impaired perfusion group (TIMI grades 0-2 or MBG 0-1, n=120). The impaired perfusion group was further divided using a random number table into the thrombus aspiration-only group (control group, n=60) and the thrombus aspiration combined with nicorandil group (nicorandil group, n=60). A 1:1 propensity score matching method was employed to adjust for baseline characteristics between the groups. Clinical characteristics, hematological parameters, coronary lesion features, and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) technical parameters were compared between the matched groups. Additionally, a multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors influencing myocardial perfusion. Furthermore, the post-procedural myocardial perfusion, cardiac function, and clinical prognosis were compared between the control and nicorandil groups. Results After matching, the baseline characteristics of the two groups were compared. The impaired perfusion group had older age, higher proportion of male patients, higher rates of diabetes and hypertension, longer time from symptom onset to balloon dilation, higher peak cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels, higher proportion of left main or multivessel involvement, heavier coronary lesion burden, and lower balloon inflation pressure (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age of ≥65 years (odds ratio {OR}=2.34, 95% confidence interval {CI}=1.23-4.46, P<0.01), time from symptom onset to balloon dilation of ≥6 hours (OR=3.12, 95% CI=1.67-5.83, P<0.01), peak cTnI level of ≥100 ng/mL (OR=4.27, 95% CI=2.18-8.36, P<0.01), left main or multivessel involvement (OR=2.86, 95% CI=1.51-5.41, P<0.01), and balloon inflation pressure of <8 atm (OR=3.45, 95% CI=1.79-6.65, P<0.01) were independent risk factors affecting myocardial perfusion. In the intervention analysis, the nicorandil group showed superior post-procedural TIMI blood flow grade, MBG, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification compared to the control group (P<0.05). During a six-month follow-up, the nicorandil group had a lower incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared to the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Age, time from symptom onset to balloon dilation, peak cTnI level, extent of coronary artery lesions, and balloon inflation pressure were identified as independent risk factors affecting myocardial perfusion in STEMI patients after PCI. Compared to simple thrombus aspiration, thrombus aspiration combined with nicorandil demonstrated better improvement in myocardial perfusion, cardiac function, and clinical outcomes for patients with impaired perfusion.

Abstract
The analysis of experimental data demonstrates that platelets and neutrophils are involved in the no-reflow phenomenon, also known as microvascular obstruction (MVO). However, studies performed in the isolated perfused hearts subjected to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) do not suggest the involvement of microembolization and microthrombi in this phenomenon. The intracoronary administration of alteplase has been found to have no effect on the occurrence of MVO in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Consequently, the major events preceding the appearance of MVO in coronary arteries are independent of microthrombi, platelets, and neutrophils. Endothelial cells appear to be the target where ischemia can disrupt the endothelium-dependent vasodilation of coronary arteries. However, reperfusion triggers more pronounced damage, possibly mediated by pyroptosis. MVO and intra-myocardial hemorrhage contribute to the adverse post-infarction myocardial remodeling. Therefore, pharmacological agents used to treat MVO should prevent endothelial injury and induce relaxation of smooth muscles. Ischemic conditioning protocols have been shown to prevent MVO, with L-type Ca 2+ channel blockers appearing the most effective in treating MVO.

Abstract
Reperfusion injury is an unfortunate consequence of restoring blood flow to tissue after a period of ischemia. This phenomenon can occur in any organ, although it has been best studied in cardiac cells. Based on cardiovascular studies, neuroprotective strategies have been developed. The molecular biology of reperfusion injury remains to be fully elucidated involving several mechanisms, however these mechanisms all converge on a similar final common pathway: blood brain barrier disruption. This results in an inflammatory cascade that ultimately leads to a loss of cerebral autoregulation and clinical worsening. In this article, the authors present an overview of these mechanisms and the current strategies being employed to minimize injury after restoration of blood flow to compromised cerebral territories.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary percutaneous coronary intervention is the treatment of choice in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and no-reflow phenomenon is still an unsolved problem. METHODS We searched PubMed, EmBase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for relevant randomized controlled trials. The primary endpoint was the incidence of major adverse cardiac events and the secondary endpoint was the incidences of no-reflow phenomenon and complete resolution of ST-segment elevation. RESULTS Eighteen randomized controlled trials were enrolled. Nicorandil significantly reduced the incidence of no-reflow phenomenon (OR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.36-0.59; P < 0.001; I2 = 0%) and major adverse cardiac events (OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.27-0.64; P < 0.001; I2 = 52%). For every single outcome of major adverse cardiac events, only heart failure and ventricular arrhythmia were significantly improved with no heterogeneity (OR, 0.36; 95% CI, 0.23-0.57, P < 0.001; OR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.31-0.60, P < 0.001 respectively). A combination of intracoronary and intravenous nicorandil administration significantly reduced the incidence of major adverse cardiac events with no heterogeneity (OR, 0.24; 95% CI, 0.13-0.43, P < 0.001; I2 = 0%), while a single intravenous administration could not (OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.40-1.06, P = 0.09; I2 = 52%). CONCLUSIONS Nicorandil can significantly improve no-reflow phenomenon and major adverse cardiac events in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention. The beneficial effects on major adverse cardiac events might be driven by the improvements of heart failure and ventricular arrhythmia. A combination of intracoronary and intravenous administration might be an optimal usage of nicorandil.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of nicorandil in improving the area of myocardial infarction in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS One hundred and twenty patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) admitted to our hospital between December 1, 2018 and December 31, 2019 were selected and randomly allocated to the experimental group (group A, n = 60) and the control group (group B, n = 60). In the experimental group, an infusion of nicorandil was given intravenously before the first balloon dilation or 1 minute before the stent placement, and with the completion of the infusion, nicorandil maintenance infusion was given. In the control group, only balloon dilation and stent placement were undertaken. RESULTS The postoperative peak levels of myoglobin, creatine kinase isoform and hypersensitive troponin T were significantly lower in group A than in group B (p < 0.05). Moreover, the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on the 180th day post operation was substantially greater in group A than in group B (p < 0.01), and the area of myocardial infarction was significantly smaller in patients in group A than those in group B on the 180th day post operation (p < 0.01). In terms of the safety, there were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of slow flow/no reflow, malignant arrhythmias, and hypotension within 24 hours post operation between the two groups (p > 0.05), and no major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) occurred in either group during the postoperative follow-up period of 180 days (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Intravenous administration of nicorandil in patients with STEMI during the perioperative percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) period was effective in reducing the area of myocardial infarction and myocardial injury without increasing the incidence of malignant arrhythmias, hypotension, or composite cardiovascular events during the drug administration period.

Abstract
Objective There is controversy whether nicorandil treatment has cardioprotective effects in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This meta-analysis was conducted to assess the efficacy of nicorandil on functional and clinical outcomes after PCI. Methods Systematic databases were searched to retrieve studies that compared the effect of nicorandil with a control group in patients with AMI who underwent PCI. Outcomes related to coronary blood flow, and functional and clinical outcomes were extracted and a meta-analysis was performed. Trial sequential analysis was conducted to estimate the required sample size for statistical power. Results Twenty-four trials involving 2965 patients with AMI were enrolled. Pooled results showed that nicorandil treatment significantly suppressed the incidence of no-reflow phenomenon and reperfusion arrhythmia after reperfusion, improved the left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular end-systolic volume index, and reduced major adverse cardiovascular events and cardiovascular death. Trial sequential analysis confirmed the effect of nicorandil in reducing the incidence of no-reflow phenomenon and follow-up major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with AMI after PCI. Conclusion Our findings suggest that nicorandil treatment adjunctive to reperfusion therapy improves myocardial reperfusion, cardiac function, and clinical outcomes in patients with AMI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION An acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a very serious type of heart attack and a profoundly life-threatening medical emergency, and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the preferred strategy. However, in patients undergoing primary PCI, 30% to 40% may suffer the no-reflow phenomenon (NRP), and it could expand the myocardial infarction area and accompanied with high rehospitalization rate and fatality rate. In this study, we try to conduct a double blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to observe whether the prophylactically intracoronary administration of Nicorandil could reduce the occurrence of NRP in STEMI patients undergoing PCI. METHODS Simple randomization in a 1:1 ratio will be made in blocks of variable size according to a random numbers generated by Excel 2010 to divide the patients to treatment group (Nicorandil) and control group (Saline). The outcomes are the occurrence of NRP, levels of interleukin-6 and HS-CRP, cTnT, and CK-MB before, and every 4 hours following PCI, and major adverse cardiovascular events at day 30. SPSS 23.0 (IBM, Chicago, IL) will be used, and P-value < .05 will be considered statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS The findings will determine the efficacy of prophylactically intracoronary administration of Nicorandil to reduce the occurrence of NRP during PCI in acute STEMI patients.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nicorandil for periprocedural myocardial injury in patients undergoing PCI through meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Methods We analyzed the clinical data of patients including the incidence of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) from selected articles. RCTs were retrieved from medical literature databases. RR and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to compare the endpoints. Results In total, 15 articles (16 trial comparisons) were retrieved which contained 2221 patients. In general, 1130 patients (50.9%) were randomized to the experimental group, whereas 1091 patients (49.1%) were randomized to the control group. The result showed that nicorandil significantly reduced the incidence of PMI and MACE after PCI compared to the control group. Conclusions Overall, early use of nicorandil in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was associated with a significant reduction of PMI and MACE.

Abstract
A 50-year-old woman presented with history of intermittent angina for 2 days and signs of extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction. An urgent coronary angiogram showed a large proximally occluded left anterior descending (LAD) artery with no distal vessel opacification. After one attempt of thrombus aspiration, there was no improvement in Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow. The aspiration catheter was then parked in the distal vessel beyond the thrombotic lesion and 2 mg of intravenous nicorandil drug mixed with 10 mL of 50% dilute iodinated contrast media was infused slowly. A comparison was made to proximal vessel angiogram and the angioplasty procedure was then completed with a right size stent, restoring TIMI 3 flow in the LAD. This method minimises clot manipulations by avoiding repeated balloon predilatations or thrombus aspiration attempts and thus prevents the occurrence of no-reflow in lesions with large thrombus burden.

Abstract
Introduction: Literature has shown the effects of intravenous/intracoronary nicorandil on increased myocardial salvage in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with mechanical reperfusion. However, the possible cardioprotective effect of oral nicorandil on the clinical outcome prior to primary coronary angioplasty is not well documented. Our aim was to assess the effect of oral nicorandil on primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI).
Methods: A total of 240 patients with acute STEMI undergoing PPCI were randomly assigned to oral nicorandil (Intervention, n=116) and placebo (Control, n=124) groups. The intervention group received 20 mg oral nicorandil at the emergency department and another 20 mg oral nicorandil in the catheterization laboratory just before the procedure. The control group received matched placebo. Our primary outcome was ST-segment resolution ≥50% one hour after primary angioplasty. Secondary outcome was in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of death, ventricular arrhythmia, heart failure and stroke.
Results: In the patients of intervention and control groups, the occurrence of ST-segment resolution ≥ 50% were 68.1% and 62.9% respectively, (P =0.27). In-hospital MACE occurred less frequently in the intervention group, compared to placebo group (11.2% vs. 22.5%, P =0.012).
Conclusion: Although the administration of oral nicorandil before primary coronary angioplasty did not improve ST-segment resolution in patients with acute STEMI, its promoting effects was remarkable on in-hospital clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality around the world. A large number of STEMI patients after the infarction gradually develop heart failure due to the infarcted myocardium. Timely reperfusion is essential to salvage ischemic myocardium from the infarction, but the restoration of coronary blood flow in the infarct-related artery itself induces myocardial injury and cardiomyocyte death, known as ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). The factors contributing to IRI in STEMI are complex, and microvascular obstruction, inflammation, release of reactive oxygen species, myocardial stunning, and activation of myocardial cell death are involved. Therefore, additional cardioprotection is required to prevent the heart from IRI. Although many mechanical conditioning procedures and pharmacological agents have been identified as effective cardioprotective approaches in animal studies, their translation into the clinical practice has been relatively disappointing due to a variety of reasons. With new emerging data on cardioprotection in STEMI over the past few years, it is mandatory to reevaluate the effectiveness of "old" cardioprotective interventions and highlight the novel therapeutic targets and new treatment strategies of cardioprotection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The amelioration of myocardial reperfusion in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) remains a significant issue. OBJECTIVE We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to better assess the effects of intracoronary nicorandil administration on myocardial microcirculation and clinical outcomes in these patients. METHODS The meta-analysis was performed according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) statement. A literature search was performed in the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases up to April 2019, with no time or language limitations. Pooled risk ratios (RRs) were calculated to evaluate the treatment effects. RESULTS Seven RCTs involving a total of 562 patients were included. Compared with control, intracoronary nicorandil significantly reduced the incidence of thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) grade ≤ 2 (RR 0.349; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.199-0.611; P < 0.001) and TIMI myocardial perfusion grade ≤ 2 (RR 0.611; 95% CI 0.438-0.852; P = 0.004) and was associated with higher complete ST-segment resolution rates (RR 1.326; 95% CI 1.090-1.614; P = 0.005). However, no significant benefits were observed on clinical outcomes, including death (RR 0.370; 95% CI 0.085-1.618; P = 0.187), recurrent myocardial infarction (RR 0.507; 95% CI 0.156-1.655; P = 0.261), heart failure (RR 0.528; 95% CI 0.224-1.247; P = 0.145), and target lesion/vessel revascularization (RR 1.109; 95% CI 0.553-2.224; P = 0.770). CONCLUSIONS Intracoronary nicorandil can significantly improve myocardial microcirculation in patients with AMI undergoing PPCI, but it failed to offer clinically significant benefits.

Abstract
Background Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is effective in treating patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) but is associated with some serious complications. Nicorandil is an anti‐anginal agent acting to improve microvascular circulation and to increase coronary blood flow. The objective of this article is to evaluate the effects of intracoronary injection followed with continuous intravenous injection of nicorandil on ECG parameters in patients with unstable angina pectoris (UA) undergoing PCI. Methods A single‐center, self‐controlled clinical trial was conducted at the Second Hospital of Tianjin Medical University between January 2019 and April 2019. Sixty‐three consecutive patients with UA who received coronary angiography and selective PCI were enrolled. ECG was recorded and analyzed before and 24 hr after nicorandil infusion. Results Patients were divided into three groups: control group (n = 23, aged 63.43 ± 12.55 years), short‐term, and prolonged use with nicorandil group (n = 20 and 20, aged 66.45 ± 8.06 years and 65.80 ± 9.49 years, respectively). Clinical characteristics and ECG parameters were similar before PCI among three groups (p > .05). In nicorandil treatment groups, intervals of QTd and Tp‐e in patients post‐PCI were significantly shorter than that in control and pre‐PCI (p < .05). Conclusions Nicorandil infusion reduces QTd and Tp‐e interval in patients with UA. Further studies will be needed to determine whether these electrophysiological changes are associated with a reduction of ventricular arrhythmias and improved outcomes.

Abstract
Background: Nicorandil prior to reperfusion by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been suggested to be beneficial. However, results of previous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were not consistent. We aimed to perform a meta-analysis to systematically evaluate the effect of periprocedural nicorandil in these patients. Methods: Related studies were obtained by searching PubMed, Embase and Cochrane's Library. Effects of perioperative nicorandil on the incidence of no-reflow phenomenon (NRP), corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) frame count (CTFC), wall motion score (WMS), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), heart failure (HF) exacerbation of rehospitalization and incidence of major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) were analyzed. Results: Eighteen RCTs with 2,055 patients were included. Treatment of nicorandil prior to PCI significantly reduced the incidence of NRP (risk ratio [RR]: 0.47, P<0.001), and reduced CTFC (weighed mean difference [WMD]: -4.54, P<0.001) immediately after PCI. Moreover, although nicorandil did not significantly affect WMS (WMD: 0.04, P=0.91), treatment of nicorandil significantly increased LVEF in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI (WMD: 1.89%, P<0.001). In addition, nicorandil significantly reduced the risk of HF exacerbation or rehospitalization (RR: 0.44, P=0.001) and the incidence of MACE (RR: 0.68, P<0.001). Further analyses showed that effects of nicorandil on LVEF, HF exacerbation and MACE were consistent within one month after PCI and during follow-up. Conclusions: Periprocedural nicorandil improves coronary blood flow, cardiac systolic function and prognosis in STEMI patients receiving primary PCI.
