Biomark Med 2024:1-10. [PMID: 39711087 DOI: 10.1080/17520363.2024.2443383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2024] [Accepted: 12/13/2024] [Indexed: 12/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND No-reflow is a critical adverse event associated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), particularly during saphenous vein graft (SVG) procedures. The Naples Prognostic Score (NPS) reflects inflammatory status, but its relationship with no-reflow remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between NPS and no-reflow occurrence following SVG PCI. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 286 patients who underwent SVG PCI from January 2020 to January 2024, with a median age of 65 years and 85.7% male. Participants were categorized into low NPS (0-2, 48.6%) and high NPS (3-4, 51.4%) groups. Two nested models were developed by adding NPS (continuous and categorical, respectively) to the base model. RESULTS Higher no-reflow rates were noted in the high-NPS group (48.5% vs. 9.5%, p < 0.05). Multivariable regression revealed that a higher NPS significantly increased no-reflow risk, with odds ratios of 5.966 (95% CI: 3.066-11.611) for continuous NPS and 10.110 (95% CI: 3.194-32.002) for categorical NPS. Adding NPS to the base model significantly improved predictive performance (likelihood-ratio test p < 0.001). Model 1 demonstrated the best performance (X2 : 84.857, R2 : 0.468) and discriminative ability (AUC: 0.888). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that NPS is a strong predictor of no-reflow following SVG PCI.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2024; 11:1386318. [PMID: 39346096 PMCID: PMC11428104 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2024.1386318] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/26/2024] [Indexed: 10/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The relationship between the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and no-reflow phenomenon after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between baseline TyG index and no-reflow phenomenon in STEMI patients with T2DM after PCI. Methods This study enrolled 695 patients with T2DM and STEMI from the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University (2014-2019). Patients were divided into tertiles according to the TyG index levels. The incidence of no-reflow phenomenon was recorded. A multivariate regression model was developed to analyze the association between the baseline TyG index and no-reflow phenomenon. The linear association between the baseline TyG index and no-reflow phenomenon was explored using smooth curve fitting with parallel subgroup analyses. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to determine the predictive power of the TyG index. Results A multivariate logistic regression model revealed that the TyG index was an independent risk factor of no-reflow phenomenon [OR = 3.23, 95%CI: 2.15-4.86, P < 0.001], and the occurrence of no-reflow phenomenon increased gradually with the increase of TyG index tertile interval (P < 0.001). Smooth curve fitting showed that the TyG index was linearly related to the risk of no-reflow. Subgroup analysis showed that they participated in this positive correlation. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the TyG index for evaluating the occurrence of no-reflow was 0.710 (95% CI: 0.640-0.780; P < 0.01). Conclusions The TyG index is independently associated with no-reflow phenomenon, suggesting that the simple index of the TyG index can be used for risk assessment of no-reflow phenomenon after PCI in STEMI patients with T2DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The coronary slow flow/no-reflow phenomenon (CSF/NRP) is a common complication of emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). Its long-term prognostic value, however, remains unclear. This study investigated the long-term outcome and prognostic value of CSF/NRP after emergency PCI for STEMI. METHODS This retrospective, multicenter registry-based cohort study was conducted in STEMI patients who underwent emergency PCI between 2015 and 2016. Incidence of in-hospital mortality, major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), and all-cause mortality during long-term follow-up were compared between CSF/NRP patients and the normal flow group. Cox proportional-hazards regression model was performed to identify the predictive impact of CSF/NRP in short- and long-term outcomes. RESULTS A total of 649 STEMI patients were included in the study, of whom 193 (29.7%) developed CSF/NRP following emergency PCI. The CSF/NRP group had a higher incidence of in-hospital mortality than the non-CSF/NRP group (8.2 vs. 4.3%, P = 0.04). All-cause mortality incidence was also higher in the CSF/NRP group during 5-year follow-up (22.2 vs. 16.2%, P = 0.04). The Cox proportional hazards model adjusting for demographic and clinical variables identified the NRP as an independent predictor of 5-year cardiac mortality [hazard ratio: 1.89; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.07-3.31; P = 0.02]. In a landmark analysis, no difference was seen in overall mortality among the two study groups between 1 month and 5-year follow-up (hazard ratio: 1.33; 95% CI: 0.80-2.21, P -value: 0.23). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed lower 3-year cumulative MACCE-free survival in the CSF/NRP group compared with the normal flow group ( P = 0.02). CONCLUSION CSF/NRP in STEMI patients is associated with a worse short- and long-term prognosis. These results, however, are mostly related to the acute phase, and CSF/NRP had limited influence on clinical outcomes in early survivors of STEMI.

Intracoronary Near-Infrared Spectroscopy to Predict No-Reflow Phenomenon During Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Acute Coronary Syndrome. Am J Cardiol 2024; 219:17-24.

Abstract
Near-infrared spectroscopy-intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS) can identify the lipid-rich lesions, described as high lipid-core burden index (LCBI). The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between lipid-core plaque (LCP) in the infarct-related lesion detected using NIRS-IVUS and no-reflow phenomenon during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We investigated 371 patients with ACS who underwent NIRS-IVUS in the infarct-related lesions before PCI. The extent of LCP in the infarct-related lesion was calculated as the maximum LCBI for each of the 4-mm longitudinal segments (maxLCBI4mm) measured by NIRS-IVUS. The patients were divided into 2 groups using a maxLCBI4mm cut-off value of 400. The overall incidence of no-reflow phenomenon was 53 of 371 (14.3%). No-reflow phenomenon more frequently occurred in patients with maxLCBI4mm ≥400 compared with those with maxLCBI4mm<400 (17.5% vs 2.5%, p <0.001). After propensity score matching, multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that maxLCBI4mm (odds ratio: 1.008; 95% confidence interval: 1.005 to 1.012, p <0.001) was independently associated with the no-reflow phenomenon. The maxLCBI4mm of 719 in the infarct-related lesion had the highest combined sensitivity (69.8%) and specificity (72.1%) for the identification of no-reflow phenomenon. In conclusion, in patients with ACS, maxLCBI4mm in the infarct-related lesion assessed by NIRS-IVUS was independently associated with the no-reflow phenomenon during PCI.

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.

Sevoflurane Improves Ventricular Conduction by Exosomes Derived from Rat Cardiac Fibroblasts After Hypothermic Global Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury. Drug Des Devel Ther 2023; 17:1719-1732. [PMID: 37333963 PMCID: PMC10275581 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s408595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study investigated the effect of exosomes derived from sevoflurane-treated cardiac fibroblasts (Sev-CFs-Exo) on reperfusion arrhythmias (RA), ventricular conduction, and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI). Methods Primary cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) were isolated from the hearts of neonatal rats and identified by morphology and immunofluorescence. Exosomes were isolated from CFs at passages 2-3 after they had been treated with 2.5% sevoflurane for an hour and cultivated for 24-48 hours. The control group was CFs that did not receive any treatment. The hypothermic global ischemia-reperfusion injury model was established using the Langendorff perfusion technique following injection with exosomes through the caudal vein. Multi-electrode array (MEA) mapping was used to investigate the changes in RA and ventricular conduction in isolated hearts. Western blots and immunofluorescence were used to examine the relative expression and location of connexin 43 (Cx43). In addition, the MIRI was evaluated with triphenyl tetrazolium chloride and Hematoxylin-Eosin staining. Results The primary CFs had a variety of morphologies, no spontaneous pulsation, and were vimentin-positive, which confirmed their successful isolation. Sev-CFs-Exo increased the heart rate (HR) at reperfusion for 15 minutes (T2) and 30 minutes (T3) and lowered the score and duration of RA and the time for restoration of heartbeat in reperfusion. Meanwhile, Sev-CFs-Exo increased conduction velocity (CV), decreased absolute inhomogeneity (P5-95) and inhomogeneity index (P5-95/P50) at T2 and T3, as well as promoted the recovery of HR, CV, P5-95 and P5-95/P50 after hypothermic global ischemia-reperfusion injury. Furthermore, Sev-CFs-Exo raised expression and reduced lateralization of Cx43, and improved myocardial infarct sizes and cellular necrosis. However, while cardiac fibroblast-derived exosomes (CFs-Exo) showed similar cardioprotective effects, the outcomes were not as significant. Conclusion Sevoflurane reduces the risk of RA and improves ventricular conduction and MIRI by CFs-Exo, and this may be driven by the expression and location of Cx43.

Predilation Ballooning in High Thrombus Laden STEMIs: An Independent Predictor of Slow Flow/No-Reflow in Patients Undergoing Emergent Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization. J Interv Cardiol 2023; 2023:4012361. [PMID: 36712997 PMCID: PMC9839408 DOI: 10.1155/2023/4012361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Revised: 10/04/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Distal embolization due to microthrombus fragments formed during predilation ballooning is considered one of the possible mechanisms of slow flow/no-reflow (SF/NR). Therefore, this study aimed to compare the incidence of intraprocedure SF/NR during the primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with high thrombus burden (≥4 grade) with and without predilation ballooning for culprit lesion preparation. Methodology. This prospective descriptive cross-sectional study included patients with a high thrombus burden (≥4 grades) who underwent primary PCI. Propensity-matched cohorts of patients with and without predilation ballooning in a 1 : 1 ratio were compared for the incidence of intraprocedure SF/NR. Results A total of 765 patients with high thrombus burden undergoing primary PCI were included in this study. The mean age was 55.75 ± 11.54 years, and 78.6% (601) were males. Predilation ballooning was conducted in 346 (45.2%) patients. The incidence of intraprocedure SF/NR was significantly higher (41.3% vs. 27.4%; p < 0.001) in patients with predilation ballooning than in those without preballooning, respectively. The incidence of intraprocedure SF/NR also remained significantly higher for the predilation ballooning cohort with an incidence rate of 41.3% as against 30.1% (p=0.002) for the propensity-matched cohort of patients without predilation ballooning with a relative risk of 1.64 (95% CI: 1.20 to 2.24). Moreover, the in-hospital mortality rate remained higher but insignificant, among patients with and without predilation ballooning (8.1% vs. 4.9%; p=0.090). Conclusion In conclusion, predilation ballooning can be associated with an increased risk of incidence of intraprocedure SF/NR during primary PCI in patients with high thrombus burden.

Abstract
In patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), it is essential to restore myocardial perfusion as soon as possible. However, a considerable proportion of patients have no-reflow. No-reflow increases the risk of major adverse cardiac events and even death. The role of blood eosinophil count in predicting no-reflow in STEMI patients has not been determined, particularly after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). The present study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of eosinophil counts for no-reflow in patients with STEMI who underwent pPCI. A total of 674 STEMI patients who underwent pPCI were enrolled. The subjects were divided into two groups according to eosinophil counts for primary analysis and with or without T2DM for secondary analysis. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine whether eosinophil count was an independent predictor of no-reflow in the entire cohort, and subgroup and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were explored to evaluate its predictive value. DeLong's test was used to compare the area under curves of the three ROC curves. The low eosinophil count was an independent predictor for no-reflow in whole cohort (adjusted OR: 2.012, 95% CI 1.242-3.259, p = 0.004) and in patients with T2DM (adjusted OR: 4.312, 95% CI 1.878-9.900, p = 0.001). In patients without T2DM, hemoglobin, but not low eosinophil count, was an independent predictor of no-reflow. The results of the ROC curve analysis revealed that a low eosinophil count had moderate predictive efficiency for predicting no-reflow in patients with T2DM, and the power was superior to all populations and patients without T2DM. Our data suggest that decreased eosinophil count was an independent risk factor for no-reflow in patients with STEMI who underwent pPCI, especially in T2DM patients, which provides guidance for clinicians to identify patients at a higher risk of developing no-reflow and lowering their risk.

Clinical Manifestation of Cardiac Rupture in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction: Early Versus Late Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Glob Heart 2022; 17:69. [PMID: 36199564 PMCID: PMC9524297 DOI: 10.5334/gh.1155] [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: 04/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Cardiac rupture is one of the fatal complications of ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) in the primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) era. The present study aims to identify risk factors of cardiac rupture among patients suffering from STEMI, treated with early and late PPCI. Methods: This is a multicenter retrospective cohort study involving STEMI patients with cardiac rupture (CR group), matched with STEMI patients without CR (control group) in a 1:5 ratio. They were divided into the early (≤ 6 h) and the late (> 6 h) PCI groups. Multivariable logistic regression was utilized to identify risk factors for cardiac rupture. Results: Seventy-four patients in the CR and 370 in the control group were included. Multivariable regression identified lateral infarction (OR = 11.89, 95% CI 2.22–63.81, p < 0.01) in the early PCI phase as a significant risk factor for cardiac rupture. Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) grade 0-1 (early PCI: OR = 4.16, 95% CI 1.33-13.0, p = 0.01; late PCI: OR = 4.46, 95% CI 1.59–12.54, p < 0.01) was a risk factor for both early and late PCI groups. In contrast, TIMI grade 2 was associated with a higher rupture risk within the late (OR = 16.87, 95% CI 3.83–74.19, p < 0.001) but not for the early (OR = 5.44, 95% CI 0.76–39.07, p = 0.09) PCI groups. STEMI combined with Killip IV was associated with a higher rupture risk for the late PCI group (OR = 1.43, 95% CI 1.03–1.99, p = 0.04). Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) was protective against cardiac rupture within early PPCI (OR = 0.18, 95% CI 0.04–0.89, p = 0.04). In contrast, glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors were associated with lower rupture risks in both the early and late groups (early PCI: OR = 0.38, 95% CI 0.17–0.87, p = 0.02; late PCI: OR = 0.33, 95% CI 0.15–0.75, p < 0.01). Conclusions: No reflow or slow blood flow is associated with a higher risk of cardiac rupture in early and late PCI patients. Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors are beneficial in preventing heart rupture, and the use of IABP in early PPCI is also helpful in preventing heart rupture.

CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score, a simple clinical tool for early prediction of no-reflow phenomenon in patients undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary revascularization. J Cardiovasc Thorac Res 2022; 14:122-127. [PMID: 35935384 PMCID: PMC9339737 DOI: 10.34172/jcvtr.2022.19] [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: 01/10/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Slow flow/no reflow (SF/NR) phenomenon during emergency percutaneous revascularization is a feared complication associated with increased risk of adverse outcomes. CHA2 DS2 -VASc score has been proposed for the risk stratification but a very limited evidences are available regarding the accuracy of this system. Therefore, we conducted this study to assess the predictive value of CHA2 DS2 -VASc score for predicting SF/NR phenomenon during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: This analytical cross-sectional study included 596 consecutive patients undergoing PCI for STEMI at a tertiary care cardiac center of Karachi, Pakistan. Baseline -VASc sore was calculated and development of SF/NR phenomenon during primary PCI was recorded. Predictive value of the score was assessed through area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic curve analysis and sensitivity and specificity were computed. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the predictive strength of the score. Results: A total of 596 patients were included, mean age was 56.28±11.44 years, and 75.7%(451) were male. The slow/no reflow phenomenon during the procedure was observed in 36.6%(218) of the patients. CHA2 DS2 -VASc≥2 was observed in 50.2%(299) of the patients. The CHA2 DS2 -VASc score was significantly higher in SF/NR patients, 2.06±1.25 vs. 1.37±1.33; P<0.001. The AUC of CHA2 DS2 -VASc score was 0.652 [0.607-0.696], CHA2 DS2 -VASc≥2 had sensitivity and specificity of 65.6% [58.9% to 71.9%] and 58.3% [53.6% to 63.7%] respectively for predicting SF/NR. CHA2 DS2 -VASc≥2 was insignificant on multivariate with odds ratio of 1.48 [0.72 -3.04]; P=0.283.
Conclusion: CHA2 DS2 -VASc risk stratification system has moderate discriminating power for the stratification of SF/NR phenomenon during primary PCI.

Abstract
In this study, we developed and validated a novel risk stratification model to predict slow-flow/no-reflow (SF/NR) during the primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), namely the RK-SF/NR score. A total of 1,711 consecutive patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergone primary PCI. A novel risk stratification model was developed in the development dataset and tested in the validation dataset. The overall incidence rate of SF/NR during the procedure was 28.8% (493/1,711). The final solution consisted of 9 variables: female gender (points = 2), total ischemic time ≥8 hours (points = 1), cardiac arrest at presentation (points = 2), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure ≥24 mm Hg (points = 3), left ventricular ejection fraction ≤30% (points = 2), culprit proximal left anterior descending artery (points = 3), thrombus grade ≥4 (points = 6), preprocedure thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 0 flow (points = 2), and lesion length ≥35 mm (points = 3). In the validation set, the area under the curve the RK-SF/NR score was 0.775 (0.722 to 0.829) and a score ≥10 has sensitivity of 77.9% (68.2% to 85.8%), negative predictive value of 87.3% (82.3% to 91.0%), specificity of 62.6% (56.0% to 68.9%), and positive predictive value of 46.3% (41.4% to 51.2%). In conclusion, RK-SF/NR score had shown good discriminating power for predicting SF/NR during primary PCI with good sensitivity and negative predictive value. Hence, the proposed model can have good clinical utility for screening patients at high risk of developing SF/NR during primary PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The machine learning algorithm (MLA) was implemented to establish an optimal model to predict the no reflow (NR) process and in-hospital death that occurred in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). METHODS The data were obtained retrospectively from 854 STEMI patients who underwent pPCI. MLA was applied to predict the potential NR phenomenon and confirm the in-hospital mortality. A random sampling method was used to split the data into the training (66.7%) and testing (33.3%) sets. The final results were an average of 10 repeated procedures. The area under the curve (AUC) and the associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the receiver operator characteristic were measured. RESULTS A random forest algorithm (RAN) had optimal discrimination for the NR phenomenon with an AUC of 0.7891 (95% CI: 0.7093-0.8688) compared with 0.6437 (95% CI: 0.5506-0.7368) for the decision tree (CTREE), 0.7488 (95% CI: 0.6613-0.8363) for the support vector machine (SVM), and 0.681 (95% CI: 0.5767-0.7854) for the neural network algorithm (NNET). The optimal RAN AUC for in-hospital mortality was 0.9273 (95% CI: 0.8819-0.9728), for SVM, 0.8935 (95% CI: 0.826-0.9611); NNET, 0.7756 (95% CI: 0.6559-0.8952); and CTREE, 0.7885 (95% CI: 0.6738-0.9033). CONCLUSIONS The MLA had a relatively higher performance when evaluating the NR risk and in-hospital mortality in patients with STEMI who underwent pPCI and could be utilized in clinical decision making.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No-/slow-reflow phenomenon (NRP) is a severe complication in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). This study aimed to explore the relationship between elevated serum uric acid (SUA) and NRP in patients with STEMI undergoing pPCI, focusing on inflammation and angiographic findings. METHODS A total of 610 patients who received pPCI for STEMI were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into a hyperuricaemia group and a non-hyperuricaemia group according to SUA levels. Clinical information and angiographic indicators were compared between the two groups. Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow and TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG) <3 after stent implantation were defined as TIMI-NRP and TMPG-NRP, respectively. A logistic model was used to analyse the relationship between hyperuricaemia and NRP. RESULTS The hyperuricaemia group had a higher incidence of TIMI-NRP (24.9% vs 14.0%, p < .001) and TMPG-NRP (33.0% vs 24.9%, p = .03), higher levels of C-reactive protein (7.2 vs 4.1 mg/L, p < .001) and worse left ventricular ejection fraction (51.5% vs 54.0%, p = .002) than the non-hyperuricaemia group. As for angiographic findings, there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of lesion characteristics measured by quantitative coronary angiography. After multivariable adjustment, elevated SUA was significantly associated with TIMI-NRP (odds ratio: 1.94, 95% confidence interval: 1.24-3.01, p = .003). Subgroup analysis showed that the effect of hyperuricaemia in TIMI-NRP was more pronounced in patients with delayed perfusion as well as in patients with diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSIONS Elevated SUA is associated with severe inflammation and has higher incidence of TIMI-NRP in patients with STEMI undergoing pPCI, especially in those with delayed perfusion or diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
AIMS Coronary microvascular obstruction (MVO) occurs frequently in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, mechanisms are multiple and not yet fully understood. Perilipin 2 (PLIN2) is involved in lipid metabolism of macrophages resident in atherosclerotic plaques, along with a role in enhancing plaque inflammation. We studied the association between PLIN2 and MVO in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, and we assessed the role of PLIN2 to predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). METHODS AND RESULTS STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI were enrolled. PLIN2 was evaluated in peripheral blood monocytes; MVO was assessed using coronary angiogram. MACEs, as a composite of cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, re-admission for heart failure, and target vessel revascularization were investigated at follow-up. Among 100 STEMI patients, 33 (33.0%) had MVO. Patients with MVO had higher levels of PLIN2 (1.03 ± 0.28 vs. 0.90 ± 0.16, P = 0.019). Age [odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval, CI), 1.045 (1.005-1.087), P = 0.026] and PLIN2 [OR (95% CI), 16.606 (2.027-136.030), P = 0.009] were associated with MVO at univariate analysis, although only PLIN2 [OR (95% CI), 12.325 (1.446-105.039), P = 0.022] was associated with MVO at multivariate analysis. After a mean follow-up of 182.2 ± 126.6 days, 13 MACEs occurred. MVO [hazard ratio (HR) (95% CI), 6.791 (2.053-22.462), P = 0.002], hypercholesterolaemia [HR (95% CI), 3.563 (1.094-11.599), P = 0.035], and PLIN2 [HR (95% CI), 82.991 (9.857-698.746), P < 0.001] were predictors of MACEs at univariate analysis, although only PLIN2 [HR (95% CI), 26.904 (2.461-294.100), P = 0.007] predicted MACEs at multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS In STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, PLIN2 was independently associated with MVO and was an independent predictor of MACEs at follow-up, suggesting to further explore PLIN2 as a target for future cardioprotection therapies.

Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:638679. [PMID: 34212010 PMCID: PMC8239367 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.638679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: The coronary atherosclerotic burden in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been identified as the main predictor of prognosis. However, the association of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], a well-established proatherogenic factor, with atherosclerotic burden in patients with STEMI is unclear. Methods: In total, 1,359 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for STEMI were included in analyses. Three prespecified models with adjustment for demographic parameters and risk factors were evaluated. Generalized additive models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the relationships of Lp(a) with Gensini scores and the no-reflow phenomenon. Kaplan–Meier curves were generated to explore the predictive value of Lp(a) for long-term all-cause mortality. Furthermore, mRNA expression levels of LPA in different groups were compared using the GEO database. Results: Patients in the highest tertile according to Lp(a) levels had an increased incidence of heart failure during hospitalization. Furthermore, patients with high levels of Lp(a) (>19.1 mg/dL) had sharply increased risks for a higher Gensini score (Pfor trend = 0.03) and no-reflow (Pfor trend = 0.002) after adjustment for demographic parameters and risk factors. During a median follow-up of 930 days, 132 deaths (9.95%) were registered. Patients with high levels of Lp(a) (>19.1 mg/dL) had the worst long-term prognosis (Pfor trend < 0.0001). In a subgroup analysis, patients with higher Lp(a) still had the highest all-cause mortality. Additionally, the mRNA expression levels of LPA in patients with STEMI with lower cardiac function were higher than those in other groups (P = 0.003). A higher coronary atherosclerotic burden was correlated with higher LPA expression (P = 0.01). Conclusion: This study provides the first evidence that Lp(a) (at both the protein and mRNA levels) is independently associated with coronary atherosclerotic lesions and prognosis in patients with STEMI treated with PCI.

Eur J Pharmacol 2021; 901:174095. [PMID: 33862063 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2021.174095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Revised: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 04/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
Previous clinical studies have shown that anisodamine could improve no-reflow phenomenon and prevent reperfusion arrhythmias, but whether this protective effect is related to the antagonism of the M-type cholinergic receptor or other potential mechanisms is uncertain. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel (mitoK ATP ) in cardioprotective effect of anisodamine against ischemia/reperfusion injury. Anisodamine and 5- hydroxydecanoic acid were used to explore the relationship between anisodamine and mitoK ATP . Using a Langendorff isolated heart ischemia/reperfusion injury model, hemodynamic parameters and reperfusion ventricular arrhythmia were evaluated; in addition, changes in myocardial infarct size, cTnI from coronary effluent and myocardial ultrastructure, as well as ATP, MDA and SOD in myocardial tissues, were detected. In the hypoxia/reoxygenation injury model of neonatal rat cardiomyocyte, cTnI release in the culture medium and levels of ATP, MDA and SOD in cardiomyocytes and mitochondrial membrane potential, were analyzed. Overall, anisodamine could significantly improve the hemodynamic indexes of isolated rat heart injured by ischemia/reperfusion, reduce the occurrence of ventricular reperfusion arrhythmia and myocardial infarction area, and improve the ultrastructural damage of myocardium and mitochondria. The in vitro results demonstrated that anisodamine could improve mitochondrial energy metabolism, reduce oxidative stress and stabilize mitochondrial membrane potential. The cardioprotective effects were significantly inhibited by 5-hydroxydecanoic acid. In conclusion, this study suggests that the opening of mitoK ATP could play an important role in the protective effect of anisodamine against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.

Abstract
Purpose of Review In acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), successful restoration of blood flow in the infarct-related coronary artery may not secure effective myocardial reperfusion. The mortality and morbidity associated with acute MI remain significant. Microvascular obstruction (MVO) represents failed microvascular reperfusion. MVO is under-recognized, independently associated with adverse cardiac prognosis and represents an unmet therapeutic need. Recent Findings Multiple factors including clinical presentation, patient characteristics, biochemical markers, and imaging parameters are associated with MVO after MI. Summary Impaired microvascular reperfusion is common following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). New knowledge about disease mechanisms underpins precision medicine with individualized risk assessment, investigation, and stratified therapy. To date, there are no evidence-based therapies to prevent or treat MVO post-MI. Identifying novel therapy for MVO is the next frontier.

Abstract
Background: No-reflow is a major challenging issue in the management of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). This study aimed to investigate the clinical, laboratory, and procedural predictors of no-reflow. Methods: This study was conducted on 378 patients with STEMI admitted to Dr. Heshmat Educational and Remedial Center (a referral heart hospital in Rasht, Iran) between 2015 and 2017. The study population was divided based on the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade and the myocardial blush grade into no-reflow and reflow groups. The clinical, laboratory, and procedural characteristics at admission were compared between the 2 groups using the multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: The mean age of the participants was 58.57±11.49 years, and men comprised 74.1% of the study population. The no-reflow phenomenon was found in 77 patients. The no-reflow group was significantly older and more likely to be female; additionally, it had higher frequencies of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and a history of cardiovascular diseases. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age >60 years (OR=1.05, 95% CI:1.00–1.09), hypertension (OR=2.91, 95% CI:1.35–6.27), diabetes (OR=4.18, 95% CI:1.89–9.22), a low systolic blood pressure (OR=3.53, 95% CI:1.02–12.2), a history of cardiovascular diseases (OR=4.29, 95% CI:1.88–9.77), chronic heart failure (OR=4.96, 95% CI:1.23–20), a low initial TIMI flow grade (OR=7.58, 95% CI:1.46–39.2 ), anemia (OR=3.42, 95% CI:1.33–8.77), and stenting vs. balloon angioplasty (OR=0.42, 95% CI:0.19–0.91) were the significant independent predictors of no-reflow. Conclusion: This study revealed some clinical, laboratory, and procedural predictors of no-reflow for the prediction of high-risk patients and their appropriate management to reduce the risk of no-reflow.

Abstract
Background Circulating levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) were considered as prognostic factors for predicting the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). △cTnI is the difference between peak cTnI after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) and cTnI on initial admission. Purpose This study aimed to assess the relationship between △cTnI, the ratio of △cTnI to cTnI on initial admission, and the incidence of MACE during the follow-up period. Methods A total of 2596 patients with cTnI measured upon admission and one-time measurement of cTnI during hospitalization were enrolled. Results In the adjusted models of the survival receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, △cTnI and the ratio of △cTnI to cTnI on initial admission have stronger discrimination power of MACE (area under curve (AUC) 0.730 and 0.717) compared with peak cTnI after PPCI and cTnI at admission (AUC 0.590, 0.546). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified △cTnI (hazard ratio (HR) 1.018, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.001 to 1.035) as a relevant factor for MACE during follow-up. △cTnI was divided into quartiles, and maximum △ cTnI between 4.845 and 19.073 ng/ml comprised more patients with anterior wall myocardial infarction (p < 0.001), higher GRACE score (p = 0.038), CK-MB (p = 0.023), and Myoglobin (p < 0.001). On the K–M survival curves, the incidence of MACE, mortality, and angina pectoris were significantly higher in the group with maximum △cTnI (p = 0.035, 0.049, 0.026). Conclusion The △cTnI level and the ratio of △cTnI have stronger discrimination power of predicting the incidence of MACE. The group with maximum △cTnI has higher incidence of MACE, mortality, and angina pectoris during the follow-up period.

Abstract
Background Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a treatment of choice for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Of the various risk stratification scores that have been introduced, the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) score is among the most used modalities. Patients with a TIMI score of five or higher are classified as high-risk patients with higher rates of adverse events. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the rate of adverse events after primary PCI in patients presenting with STEMI and a TIMI score of five or higher. Methodology This descriptive study was conducted at the cardiology department of the Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi, from February 2018 to August 2018. The patients included in this study consisted of a total of 150 men and women who presented to the ED with concerns of chest pain and were diagnosed with STEMI and had a TIMI score of five or higher. Consultant cardiologists performed primary PCI procedures, and any post-procedure adverse events were recorded during the patients' hospital stays (up to one week), including mortality, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, and ventricular arrhythmias. Results The study population was 83.3% male and 16.7% female patients, and the mean age was 54.0 ± 9.4 years. The mean BMI was 27.34 ± 2.76 kg/m2. The mean TIMI score was 9.19 ± 2.71, with a TIMI score higher than eight for 52.7% of patients. Death was observed in 18.7% of cases, heart failure in 21.3% of cases, cardiogenic shock in 13.3% of cases, and ventricular arrhythmia in 22.0% of cases. Conclusion A TIMI risk score of five or higher can identify patients at high risk not only for mortality, but also for heart failure, cardiogenic shock, and ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
Background In underdeveloped countries, coronary artery disease (CAD) has developed into a serious health issue due to the high rates of risk factors such as obesity and smoking amongst the population. This study has been performed to find the rate of multivessel CAD (MVD) and subsequent thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade III in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods This transverse study was carried out involving 110 patients from the emergency department of the National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, Karachi, Pakistan, from August 2015 to March 2016. All patients were diagnosed as ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and had gone through primary PCI. Pre-procedure angiographic findings regarding the number of vessels involved and post-procedure TIMI flow grade were assessed and analysed. Results The average age of the study sample was 56.3 ± 11.4 years. The proportion of male patients was 81.8% (n=90), and hypertension was the most prevalent risk factor followed by type II diabetes with a frequency of 67.3% (n=74) and 40.0% (n=44), respectively. Coronary angiography showed MVD in 50.0% (n=55) of the patients, of whom 34 patients had two-vessel disease, and the remaining 21 had three-vessel disease. Ninety percent (n=99) of the patients exhibited TIMI flow grade III after the procedure with no significant difference between patients with MVD and those with single-vessel disease with a rate of 87.3% (n=48/55) versus 92.7% (n=51/55, P=0.527), respectively. Conclusion Post-procedure TIMI flow grade III was accomplished in almost 90% of the subjects with or without MVD. It can be concluded that primary PCI has a significant role in the early restoration of myocardial blood flow following STEMI regardless of the vessels involved.
