Effect of Perioperative Nicorandil on Myocardial Protection in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery with Cardiopulmonary Bypass, a Retrospective Study. Drug Des Devel Ther 2024; 18:223-231. [PMID: 38312992 PMCID: PMC10838497 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s437801] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The potential myocardial protective effect of nicorandil (NICD) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention has been established. However, its efficacy in the context of cardiac surgery remains controversial. The present study aimed to evaluate the myocardial protective effect of perioperative NICD use in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods We retrospectively gathered data from patients undergoing cardiac bypass surgery between 12/2018 and 04/2021 in Fuwai Hospital. Subsequently, the patients were divided into two groups, NICD group and non-nicorandil (non-NICD) group. A 1, 3 propensity score matching (PSM) was conducted. The primary outcome was the incidence of myocardial injury. The secondary outcomes included the mechanical ventilation (MV) duration, intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS), hospital LOS, duration of chest drainage, the drainage volume, the total cost, the incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI), and the incidence of acute liver injury (ALI). Subsequently, we divided the entire population into two distinct subgroups based on their administration of NICD, and performed a comprehensive subgroup analysis. Results A total of 2406 patients were ultimately included in the study. After PSM, 250 patients in NICD group and 750 patients in non-NICD group were included in the analysis. Perioperative NICD reduced the incidence of myocardial injury (47.2% versus 38.8%, P=0.025). Our subgroup analysis revealed that preoperative NICD administration not only provided myocardial protection benefits (45.7% vs 35.8%, OR 0.66, 95% CI [0.45-0.97], P=0.041), but also demonstrated statistically significant reduction in ALI, the ICU and hospital LOS, and the duration of chest drainage (all P<0.05). Conclusion The perioperative NICD administration may confer myocardial protection in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB. Furthermore, the preoperative utilization of NICD has the potential to mitigate the incidence of postoperative ALI, a reduction in the ICU and hospital LOS, and the duration of chest drainage.

Effect of Nicorandil, Diltiazem, or Isosorbide Mononitrate for Oral Antispastic Therapy After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Using Radial Artery Grafts-A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial (ASRAB-Pilot): Rationale and Study Protocol. Adv Ther 2023; 40:3588-3597. [PMID: 37329403 DOI: 10.1007/s12325-023-02548-4] [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: 03/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The current evidence for chronic oral antispastic medication use after coronary artery bypass grafting using radial artery grafts (RA-CABG) is controversial. Calcium channel blockers, such as diltiazem, are the most commonly used antispastic medications after RA-CABG; other options include nitrates and nicorandil, but to date no sufficiently powered randomized controlled trials have been conducted to compare their efficacy. METHODS This is a single-center, open-label, parallel three-arm, pilot randomized controlled trial. Patients without contraindications to any study medications and who successfully underwent RA-CABG surgery will be consecutively screened. Eligible patients will be randomized in a ratio of 1:1:1 (a total of 150 patients, 50 per arm) to receive nicorandil 5 mg orally thrice daily, diltiazem 180 mg orally once daily, or isosorbide mononitrate 50 mg orally once daily for 24 weeks. The primary outcomes are RA graft failure at week 1 and week 24. The secondary outcomes include major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE, a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and unplanned revascularization) and angina recurrence. The safety outcomes include hypotension occurrence, withdrawal of renin angiotensin aldosterone system inhibitors, serious adverse events, and other concerned adverse events within 24 weeks. CONCLUSION This pilot trial will compare the preliminary effects of nicorandil, diltiazem, and isosorbide mononitrate on angiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who have undergone RA-CABG. Recruitment began in June 2020, and the estimated primary completion date is early 2023. Results of this study will provide much needed information for design of large confirmatory trials on the effectiveness of oral antispastic medications after RA-CABG.

[PMID: 37383699 PMCID: PMC10293770 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1180792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI) refers to the more severe damage that occurs in the previously ischemic myocardium after a short-term interruption of myocardial blood supply followed by restoration of blood flow within a certain period of time. MIRI has become a major challenge affecting the therapeutic efficacy of cardiovascular surgery. Methods A scientific literature search on MIRI-related papers published from 2000 to 2023 in the Web of Science Core Collection database was conducted. VOSviewer was used for bibliometric analysis to understand the scientific development and research hotspots in this field. Results A total of 5,595 papers from 81 countries/regions, 3,840 research institutions, and 26,202 authors were included. China published the most papers, but the United States had the most significant influence. Harvard University was the leading research institution, and influential authors included Lefer David J., Hausenloy Derek J., Yellon Derek M., and others. All keywords can be divided into four different directions: risk factors, poor prognosis, mechanisms and cardioprotection. Conclusion Research on MIRI is flourishing. It is necessary to conduct an in-depth investigation of the interaction between different mechanisms and multi-target therapy will be the focus and hotspot of MIRI research in the future.

Pharmacological Cardioprotection against Ischemia Reperfusion Injury-The Search for a Clinical Effective Therapy. Cells 2023; 12:1432.

Abstract
Pharmacological conditioning aims to protect the heart from myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Despite extensive research in this area, today, a significant gap remains between experimental findings and clinical practice. This review provides an update on recent developments in pharmacological conditioning in the experimental setting and summarizes the clinical evidence of these cardioprotective strategies in the perioperative setting. We start describing the crucial cellular processes during ischemia and reperfusion that drive acute IRI through changes in critical compounds (∆GATP, Na+, Ca2+, pH, glycogen, succinate, glucose-6-phosphate, mitoHKII, acylcarnitines, BH4, and NAD+). These compounds all precipitate common end-effector mechanisms of IRI, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, Ca2+ overload, and mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening (mPTP). We further discuss novel promising interventions targeting these processes, with emphasis on cardiomyocytes and the endothelium. The limited translatability from basic research to clinical practice is likely due to the lack of comorbidities, comedications, and peri-operative treatments in preclinical animal models, employing only monotherapy/monointervention, and the use of no-flow (always in preclinical models) versus low-flow ischemia (often in humans). Future research should focus on improved matching between preclinical models and clinical reality, and on aligning multitarget therapy with optimized dosing and timing towards the human condition.
