Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).A total of 586 ACS patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) over 65 years old between January 2017 and December 2018 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into two groups by the optimal cutoff value of ALI. Spearman rank correlation coefficient was used to evaluate the correlation between ALI and the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE). Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, Cox survival analysis, and Kaplan Meier curves were used to assess the predictive value of ALI for MACEs.Spearman's nonparametric test revealed a moderate correlation between ALI and the GRACE (r: -0.417, P < 0.001). Time-dependent ROC curves showed that the area under the curve for ALI was 0.751 (95% CI, 0.699-0.798) in predicting MACEs, higher than Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (0.531, 95% CI 0.435-0.627) and Prognostic Nutritional Index (0.590, 95% CI 0.505-0.676), and for combined diagnostic models (ALI + GRACE) was 0.913, (95% CI 0.875 - 0.942, P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox analysis demonstrated that ALI (HR: 0.974, 95% CI: 0.952-0.996, P = 0.017) was an independent risk factor for MACEs. Kaplan Meier survival analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of MACEs was significantly higher in elderly ACS patients with lower ALI (log-rank test, P < 0.001).ALI could be a nutrition-inflammation indicator with independent predictive value for long-term MACEs of elderly ACS patients after PCI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aimed to explore the predictors of vascular complications (VCs) associated with transradial access, as the occurrence and severity of these complications were found to be significantly lower compared to femoral access. However, it is important to note that the occurrence of these complications still has a negative impact on clinical outcomes. Nevertheless, there is limited available data on the predictors of complications specifically related to radial access. METHODS A retrospective case-control study was conducted on individuals who underwent percutaneous coronary diagnostic or therapeutic procedures at Daping Hospital, following the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study compared demographic characteristics, VC types, ankle brachial index (ABI), and severity of coronary artery stenosis between the two groups. RESULTS We enrolled 300 subjects with VCs and 300 age- and sex-matched subjects without VCs as controls. There were no differences in the baseline characteristics or comorbidities between the groups. Compared to the control group, the VC group has a higher portion of left radial access (6.0%) and previous radial artery puncture history (29.7% vs. 18.3%, p<0.001). The ABI was significantly lower than the non-VC group (1.17 ± 0.17 vs. 1.23 ± 0.14, p<0.001). In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, several factors were found to be independently associated with the occurrence of VC. These factors include ABI (OR=0.060, 95% CI: 0.014-0.249, p<0.001), the procedure being performed by junior operators (OR=1.892, 95% CI: 1.314-2.745, p<0.001), and previous access on the same radial artery (OR=1.795, 95% CI: 1.190-2.707, p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Patients who exhibit a lower ABI and have a history of prior radial access procedures may be at an increased risk of developing radial access VC. Therefore, it is recommended to routinely measure ABI prior to these procedures, as it may serve as a predictive tool for assessing the risk of VC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resting heart rate (RHR) during hospitalization has been shown to be associated with adverse outcomes in patients with myocardial infarction (MI). This study aimed to evaluate the long-term prognostic effect of RHR during the stable phase after MI in post-MI patients. METHODS Patients who had prior or new-onset MI and RHR measurements during the stable period after MI between 2006 and 2018 in the community-based Kailuan Study were enrolled. RHR was divided into four groups based on quartiles. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the association of RHR with primary composite outcome of all-cause death, hospitalization for heart failure (HF), stroke, and recurrent MI and its components. RESULTS A total of 4447 post-MI patients were included. During a median follow-up of 7.5 years, 1813 patients (40.8%) developed primary outcomes. Compared to RHR ≤67 bpm, patients with 72 < RHR ≤80 bpm and RHR >80 bpm had increased risks of primary outcome, with adjusted hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of 1.23 (1.08-1.40) and 1.35 (1.18-1.55), respectively. The risk of primary outcome increased by 12% (1.07-1.17) for each 10-bpm increase in RHR. Similar results were observed in all-cause death and hospitalization for HF. Restricted cubic splines revealed a linear relationship between RHR and primary outcome, all-cause death, and hospitalization for HF (P for nonlinearity >0.05). CONCLUSIONS RHR during the stable phase after MI was an independent predictor for primary outcome and all-cause death in post-MI patients, and RHR >72 bpm was associated with increased risk for primary outcome and all-cause death.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) combined with the Systemic Immunoinflammatory Index (SII) for the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) following percutaneous coronary intervention in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 1202 elderly patients with acute coronary syndromes divided into MACE and non-MACE groups according to whether they had a MACE. The sensitivity analysis utilized advanced machine learning algorithms to preliminarily identify the critical role of GNRI versus SII in predicting MACE risk. We conducted a detailed analysis using a restricted cubic spline approach to investigate the nonlinear relationship between GNRI, SII, and MACE risk further. We constructed a clinical prediction model based on three key factors: GNRI, SII, and Age. To validate the accuracy and usefulness of this model, we compared it to the widely used GRACE score using subject work and recall curves. Additionally, we compared the predictive value of models and GRACE scores in assessing the risk of MACE using the Integrated Discriminant Improvement Index (IDI) and the Net Reclassification Index (NRI). This study included 827 patients. The GNRI scores were lower in the MACE group than in the non-MACE group, while the SII scores were higher in the MACE group (P < 0.001). The multifactorial analysis revealed a low GNRI (OR = 2.863, 95% CI: 2.026-4.047, P = 0.001), High SII (OR = 3.102, 95% CI: 2.213-4.348, P = 0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) for the predictive model was 0.778 (95% CI: 0.744-0.813, P = 0.001), while the AUC for the GRACE score was 0.744 (95% CI: 0.708-0.779, P = 0.001). NRI was calculated to be 0.5569, with NRI + at 0.1860 and NRI- at 0.3708. The IDI was found to be 0.0571, with a P-value of less than 0.001. These results suggest that the newly developed prediction model is more suitable for use with the population in this study than the GRACE score. The model constructed using GNRI and SII demonstrated good standardization and clinical impact, as evidenced by the standard, DCA, and clinical impact curves. The study shows that combining GNRI and SII can be a simple, cost-effective, and valuable way to predict the risk of MACE within one year in elderly acute coronary syndromes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increased susceptibility to malnutrition and inadequate glycemic control are frequently observed in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease. The assessment of malnutrition is performed using the prognosis nutritional index (PNI). The inadequate glycemic control is measured using glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). However, the combined effect of PNI and HbA1c on the prognosis in diabetic patients with coronary artery disease remains unknown. METHODS A study was conducted at Beijing Anzhen Hospital and included 2,005 patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) accompanied by acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from September 2021 to January 2022. Based on the median PNI and HbA1c, we categorized the patients into four groups including high (H)-PNI/low (L)-HbA1c, H-PNI/H-HbA1c, L-PNI/L-HbA1c, and L-PNI/H-HbA1c. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) were the primary outcome, including all-cause mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), and nonfatal strokes. RESULTS Throughout a median follow-up of 16.3 months, 73 patients had MACCE, which comprised 36 cases of all-cause mortality. In comparison to the H-PNI, the L-PNI showed an obvious rise in MACCE and all-cause mortality (log-rank P = 0.048 and 0.021, respectively) among the H-HbA1c group. Compared to the other groups, the L-PNI/H-HbA1c group exhibited the greatest risk of MACCE (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 2.50, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.20-5.23, P = 0.014) and all-cause mortality (HR: 3.20, 95% CI 1.04-9.82, P = 0.042). With the addition of PNI, MACCE and all-cause mortality prediction models performed significantly better in patients with ACS and T2DM after PCI, particularly in those with H-HbA1c levels. CONCLUSIONS The combination of L-PNI and H-HbA1c is a prognostic marker for MACCE and all-cause mortality in patients diagnosed with ACS and T2DM who underwent PCI. The PNI can serve as an assessment tool of malnutrition in patients with ACS and T2DM accompanied by H-HbA1c who underwent PCI. Therefore, monitoring the long-term change of the PNI deserves attention in clinical practice.

Abstract
To determine the most appropriate nutritional assessment tool for predicting the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 1 year in elderly ACS patients undergoing PCI from four nutritional assessment tools including PNI, GNRI, CONUT, and BMI. Consecutive cases diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of the Air force characteristic medical center from 1 January 2020 to 1 April 2022 were retrospectively collected. The basic clinical characteristics and relevant test and examination indexes were collected uniformly, and the cases were divided into the MACE group (174 cases) and the non-MACE group (372 cases) according to whether a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) had occurred within 1 year. Predictive models were constructed to assess the nutritional status of patients with the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI), Controlling nutritional status (CONUT) scores, and Body Mass Index (BMI), respectively, and to analyze their relationship with prognosis. The incremental value of the four nutritional assessment tools in predicting risk was compared using the Integrated Discriminant Improvement (IDI) and the net reclassification improvement (NRI). The predictive effect of each model on the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 1 year in elderly ACS patients undergoing PCI was assessed using area under the ROC curve (AUC), calibration curves, decision analysis curves, and clinical impact curves; comparative analyses were performed. Among the four nutritional assessment tools, the area under the curve (AUC) was significantly higher for the PNI (AUC: 0.798, 95%CI 0.755-0.840 P < 0.001) and GNRI (AUC: 0.760, 95%CI 0.715-0.804 P < 0.001) than for the CONUT (AUC: 0.719,95%CI 0.673-0.765 P < 0.001) and BMI (AUC: 0.576, 95%CI 0.522-0.630 P < 0.001). The positive predictive value (PPV) of PNI: 67.67% was better than GNRI, CONUT, and BMI, and the negative predictive value (NPV): of 83.90% was better than CONUT and BMI and similar to the NPV of GNRI. The PNI, GNRI, and CONUT were compared with BMI, respectively. The PNI had the most significant improvement in the Integrated Discriminant Improvement Index (IDI) (IDI: 0.1732, P < 0.001); the PNI also had the most significant improvement in the Net Reclassification Index (NRI) (NRI: 0.8185, P < 0.001). In addition, of the four nutritional assessment tools used in this study, the PNI was more appropriate for predicting the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) within 1 year in elderly ACS patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to determine whether any change occurred over time in level of evidence (LoE) of therapeutic interventions supporting heart failure (HF) and other European Society of Cardiology guideline recommendations. METHODS AND RESULTS We selected topics with at least three documents released between 2008 and April 2022. Classes of recommendations (CoR) and supporting LoE related to therapeutic interventions within each document were collected and compared over time. A total of 1822 recommendations from 18 documents on 6 topics [median number per document = 112, 867 (48%) CoR I] were included in the analysis. There was a trend towards a reduction over time in the percentage of CoR I in HF (46-36-34%), non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI; 78-58-54%), and pulmonary embolism (PE; 65-50-39%) guidelines, with a decrease in the total number of recommendations for HF only. Percentage of CoR I was stable over time around 40% for valvular heart disease (VHD) and atrial fibrillation (AF), and around 60% for cardiovascular prevention (CVP), with an increase in the total number of recommendations for VHD and CVP and a decrease for AF. Among CoR I, 319 (37%) were supported by LoE A, with a decrease over time for HF (56-46-42%), an increase for NSTEMI (29-38-48%) and AF (28-31-36%), a bimodal distribution for PE and CVP, and a lack for VHD. CONCLUSIONS LoE supporting therapeutic recommendations in contemporary European guidelines is generally low. Physicians should be aware of these limitations, and scientific societies promote a greater understanding of their significance and drive future research directions.

Abstract
Background The availability of advanced technologies for mechanical support in hospitals with on-site cardiac surgery (CS), along with the ability to perform urgent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, may result in improved clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of the bi-annually Acute Coronary Syndrome Israeli Survey (ACSIS) registry from the year 2000 to 2020, performed in hospitals with and without CS. Mortality rates and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) rates are reported. We evaluated two periods of the study-early (2000-2010) vs. late (2011-2020). Propensity score matching was performed to reduce bias between the two groups. Results The study included 16,979 patients (52.3% in the on-site CS group). Patients in the on-site CS group were more likely to undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), (odds ratio [OR], 1.26 [95% CI, 1.18-1.35]; p < 0.001) and CABG [OR, 1.91 (95%CI, 1.63-2.24); P < 0.001], and patients in hospitals without on-site CS had higher 30-day MACCE [OR, 1.17 (95% CI, 1.07-1.27); p < 0.0005]. Overall, there was no difference in 1-year mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 0.98 [95% CI, 0.89-1.08]; p = 0.71) between the groups. During the late period of the study, patients in the group without on-site CS had lower 30-day mortality [OR, 0.69 (95% CI, 0.49-0.97); P = 0.04], yet with no difference in 1-year mortality [HR, 0.81 (95% CI, 0.65-1.01); p = 0.07]. Conclusions The availability of on-site CS resulted in variations in treatment modality, yet it did not affect the clinical outcomes of ACS. A trend to a better short-term outcomes was noted in hospitals without CS during the late period of the study, which warrants further investigation.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:396. [PMID: 37568090 PMCID: PMC10422761 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03416-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a clinically distinguishable yet lethal sequela of ischaemic heart disease (IHD). In sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), death due to acute STEMI is increasing. In South Africa, there is a paucity of data available on the clinical outcomes of acute STEMI within one year for individuals treated in the public healthcare sector. This study primarily seeks to determine the one-year all-cause mortality rate of acute STEMI. The study also assesses the value of serum cardiac biomarkers of myocardial damage and serum uric acid in predicting all-cause mortality in STEMI. METHODS This is a single-centre observational prospective cohort of all consecutive individuals presenting with an acute STEMI to the Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital (CMJAH) in Johannesburg, South Africa. Research data will be sourced on admission through electronic medical records, blood laboratory results and coronary angiography reports, and at follow-up through periodic telephonic interviews and standardised echocardiograms. At least 355 eligible participants will be continuously followed over one year, and clinical outcomes will be measured 30 days, three months, six months and one year after the index hospitalisation. DISCUSSION This study provides insights into the demographic, risk factors and clinical profiles of individuals with STEMI in South Africa. Its findings may improve the risk stratification, prognostication, and therapeutic management of STEMI patients in our setting. By comparing the clinical outcomes between the different coronary reperfusion strategies, our results may guide clinicians in providing better patient treatment, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where access to percutaneous coronary intervention may be limited. Furthermore, the study offers insights into the routine use of baseline serum uric acid as a potential low-cost prognostic biomarker of all-cause mortality in STEMI. Finally, this study's findings may be of public health significance to local policymakers to aid in reinforcing primary prevention strategies and developing structured referral networks for timely coronary reperfusion of acute STEMI.

Association between the number of Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria and clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome. J Cardiol 2023; 81:553-563. [PMID: 36682715 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Academic Research Consortium for High Bleeding Risk (ARC-HBR) criteria have been used to identify high-risk patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in current clinical practice. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the number of ARC-HBR criteria and clinical outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) after an emergent PCI. METHODS We assessed 338 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent successful emergent PCI between January 2017 and December 2020. The ARC-HBR score was calculated by assigning 1 point to each major criterion and 0.5 points to each minor criterion. The patients were classified into low (ARC-HBR score<1), intermediate (1≤ARC-HBR score<2), and high (ARC-HBR score≥2) bleeding risk groups. We investigated the association between the ARC-HBR score and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. We also compared the diagnostic ability of the ARC-HBR score and Controlled Abciximab and Device Investigation to Lower Late Angioplasty Complications (CADILLAC) risk score. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 67.6±12.4years, and 78.4% were men. During the median follow-up of 864 (557-1309) days, 70 patients developed MACEs. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the cumulative incidence of MACE was significantly higher as the ARC-HBR score increased in a stepwise manner (log-rank p<0.001). There were no significant differences in the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for predicting MACE within two years after an emergent PCI between the ARC-HBR and CADILLAC risk scores (AUC: 0.763 vs. 0.777). CONCLUSIONS ARC-HBR score was independently associated with an increased risk of MACE in patients with ACS after an emergent PCI. Moreover, it had a similar diagnostic ability for predicting MACE within two years compared to the CADILLAC risk score.

Acute Response in the Noninfarcted Myocardium Predicts Long-Term Major Adverse Cardiac Events After STEMI. JACC Cardiovasc Imaging 2023; 16:46-59. [PMID: 36599569 PMCID: PMC9834063 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcmg.2022.09.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2021] [Revised: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has effects on the myocardium beyond the immediate infarcted territory. However, pathophysiologic changes in the noninfarcted myocardium and their prognostic implications remain unclear. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term prognostic value of acute changes in both infarcted and noninfarcted myocardium post-STEMI. METHODS Patients with acute STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention underwent evaluation with blood biomarkers and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) at 2 days and 6 months, with long-term follow-up for major adverse cardiac events (MACE). A comprehensive CMR protocol included cine, T2-weighted, T2∗, T1-mapping, and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging. Areas without LGE were defined as noninfarcted myocardium. MACE was a composite of cardiac death, sustained ventricular arrhythmia, and new-onset heart failure. RESULTS Twenty-two of 219 patients (10%) experienced an MACE at a median of 4 years (IQR: 2.5-6.0 years); 152 patients returned for the 6-month visit. High T1 (>1250 ms) in the noninfarcted myocardium was associated with lower left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (51% ± 8% vs 55% ± 9%; P = 0.002) and higher NT-pro-BNP levels (290 pg/L [IQR: 103-523 pg/L] vs 170 pg/L [IQR: 61-312 pg/L]; P = 0.008) at 6 months and a 2.5-fold (IQR: 1.03-6.20) increased risk of MACE (2.53 [IQR: 1.03-6.22]), compared with patients with normal T1 in the noninfarcted myocardium (P = 0.042). A lower T1 (<1,300 ms) in the infarcted myocardium was associated with increased MACE (3.11 [IQR: 1.19-8.13]; P = 0.020). Both noninfarct and infarct T1 were independent predictors of MACE (both P = 0.001) and significantly improved risk prediction beyond LVEF, infarct size, and microvascular obstruction (C-statistic: 0.67 ± 0.07 vs 0.76 ± 0.06, net-reclassification index: 40% [IQR: 12%-64%]; P = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS The acute responses post-STEMI in both infarcted and noninfarcted myocardium are independent incremental predictors of long-term MACE. These insights may provide new opportunities for treatment and risk stratification in STEMI.

Bardoxolone Methyl Ameliorates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Activating the Nrf2/HO-1 Signaling Pathway. Cardiovasc Ther 2023; 2023:5693732. [PMID: 36874247 PMCID: PMC9977528 DOI: 10.1155/2023/5693732] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2022] [Revised: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a severe heart problem resulting from restoring coronary blood flow to the myocardium after ischemia. This study is aimed at ascertaining the therapeutic efficiency and action mechanism of bardoxolone methyl (BARD) in myocardial I/R injury. Methods In male rats, myocardial ischemia was performed for 0.5 h, and then, reperfusion lasted for 24 h. BARD was administrated in the treatment group. The animal's cardiac function was measured. Myocardial I/R injury serum markers were detected via ELISA. The 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining was used to estimate the infarction. H&E staining was used to evaluate the cardiomyocyte damage, and Masson trichrome staining was used to observe the proliferation of collagen fiber. The apoptotic level was assessed via the caspase-3 immunochemistry and TUNEL staining. Oxidative stress was measured through malondialdehyde, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, superoxide dismutase, and inducible nitric oxide synthases. The alteration of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway was confirmed via western blot, immunochemistry, and PCR analysis. Results The protective effect of BARD on myocardial I/R injury was observed. In detail, BARD decreased cardiac injuries, reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and inhibited oxidative stress. For mechanisms, BARD treatment significantly activates the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. Conclusion BARD ameliorates myocardial I/R injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte apoptosis via activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Abstract
AIMS Galectin-3, a β-galactoside-binding lectin, is abnormally increased in cardiovascular disease. Plasma Galectin-3 receives a Class II recommendation for heart failure management and has been extensively studied for multiple cellular functions. The direct effects of Galectin-3 on platelet activation remain unclear. This study explores the direct effects of Galectin-3 on platelet activation and thrombosis. METHODS AND RESULTS A strong positive correlation between plasma Galectin-3 concentration and platelet aggregation or whole blood thrombus formation was observed in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Multiple platelet function studies demonstrated that Galectin-3 directly potentiated platelet activation and in vivo thrombosis. Mechanistic studies using the Dectin-1 inhibitor, laminarin, and Dectin-1-/- mice revealed that Galectin-3 bound to and activated Dectin-1, a receptor not previously reported in platelets, to phosphorylate spleen tyrosine kinase and thus increased Ca2+ influx, protein kinase C activation, and reactive oxygen species production to regulate platelet hyperreactivity. TD139, a Galectin-3 inhibitor in a Phase II clinical trial, concentration dependently suppressed Galectin-3-potentiated platelet activation and inhibited occlusive thrombosis without exacerbating haemorrhage in ApoE-/- mice, which spontaneously developed increased plasma Galectin-3 levels. TD139 also suppressed microvascular thrombosis to protect the heart from myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion injury in ApoE-/- mice. CONCLUSION Galectin-3 is a novel positive regulator of platelet hyperreactivity and thrombus formation in CAD. As TD139 has potent antithrombotic effects without bleeding risk, Galectin-3 inhibitors may have therapeutic advantages as potential antiplatelet drugs for patients with high plasma Galectin-3 levels.

Abstract
The incidence and impact of malnutrition on acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remain unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, clinical relevance, and prognostic outcomes of malnutrition in patients with ACS treated with percutaneous coronary intervention. This retrospective study included 1930 consecutive patients with ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and assessed their nutritional status using 3 scoring systems: Controlling Nutritional Status score, nutritional risk index (NRI), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. The Controlling Nutritional Status, NRI, and PNI scores showed that 5.2%, 17.5%, and 3.9% of patients were moderately or severely malnourished, respectively. During a median follow-up of 67.2 months (interquartile range: 46.8-88.5 months), 74 (3.8%) patients died. Malnutrition was associated with a significantly increased risk for all-cause mortality compared with good nutrition (adjusted hazard ratios for moderate and severe malnutrition, respectively: 5.65 [95% confidence interval: 3.27-9.78] and 15.26 [7.50-31.05] for the NRI score, 5.53 [2.10-14.49] and 11.08 [5.69-21.59] for the PNI; P < .001). The current findings demonstrated that malnutrition is prevalent among patients with ACS and is closely associated with increased mortality. Further study is needed to evaluate the effects of nutritional interventions on the outcomes of patients with ACS.

Abstract
AIMS To study baseline characteristics, in-hospital managements and mortality of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) patients in different European countries. METHODS AND RESULTS NSTEMI patients enrolled in the national myocardial infarction (MI) registries [EMIR; n = 5817 (Estonia), HUMIR; n = 30 787 (Hungary), NORMI; n = 33 054 (Norway), and SWEDEHEART; n = 49 533 (Sweden)] from 2014 to 2017 were included and presented as aggregated data. The median age at admission ranged from 70 to 75 years. Current smoking status was numerically higher in Norway (24%), Estonia (22%), and Hungary (19%), as compared to Sweden (17%). Patients in Hungary had a high rate of diabetes mellitus (37%) and hypertension (84%). The proportion of performed coronary angiographies (58% vs. 75%) and percutaneous coronary interventions (38% vs. 56%), differed most between Norway and Hungary. Prescription of dual antiplatelet therapy at hospital discharge ranged from 60% (Estonia) to 81% (Hungary). In-hospital death ranged from 3.5% (Sweden) to 9% (Estonia). The crude mortality rate at 1 month was 12% in Norway and 5% in Sweden (5%), whereas the 1-year mortality rates were similar (20-23%) in Hungary, Estonia, and Norway and 15% in Sweden. CONCLUSION Cross-comparisons of four national European MI registries provide important data on differences in risk factors and treatment regiments that may explain some of the observed differences in death rates. A unified European continuous MI registry could be an option to better understand how implementation of guideline-recommended therapy can be used to reduce the burden of cardiovascular disease.

Malnutrition in patients with coronary artery disease: Prevalence and mortality in a 46,485 Chinese cohort study. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2022; 32:1186-1194. [PMID: 35260308 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2021.12.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2021] [Revised: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Malnutrition is associated with poor prognosis in a wide range of illnesses. However, its long-term prognostic impact in general coronary artery disease (CAD) patients is not well known. We aim to report the prevalence and long-term mortality of malnutrition in the whole general population. METHODS AND RESULTS In this retrospective cohort study, the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score was applied to 46,485 consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and diagnosed with CAD from January 2007 to July 2018. Patients were stratified as having no malnutrition (n = 19,780), mild (n = 21,092), moderate (n = 5286) and severe malnutrition (n = 327), based on CONUT score. Overall, mean age was 63.1 ± 10.7 years, and 75.8% of patients (n = 35,250) were male. 45.4% of patients were mildly malnourished and 12.1% were moderately or severely malnourished. During a median follow-up of 5.1 years (interquartile range: 3.0-7.7 years), 6093 (17.3%) patients died. After adjusting for confounders, malnutrition risk was associated with significantly increased risk for all-cause death (mild vs. normal, HR = 1.19,95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12 to 1.28; moderate vs. normal, HR = 1.42,95% CI: 1.30 to 1.55; severe vs. Normal, HR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.57 to 2.41) (p for trend<0.001). The similar result on all-cause mortality was also found in different subgroups stratified by gender, chronic kidney disease, anemia, percutaneous coronary intervention. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition is a common complication among patients with CAD, and is strongly associated with increased mortality. Further studies need to explore the efficacy of nutritional interventions on long-term prognosis among CAD patients. This study was registered at Clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04407936.

Development and validation of a novel risk score to predict 5-year mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction in China: a retrospective study. PeerJ 2022; 9:e12652. [PMID: 35036143 PMCID: PMC8740514 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.12652] [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: 07/19/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The disease burden from ischaemic heart disease remains heavy in the Chinese population. Traditional risk scores for estimating long-term mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have been developed without sufficiently considering advances in interventional procedures and medication. The goal of this study was to develop a risk score comprising clinical parameters and intervention advances at hospital admission to assess 5-year mortality in AMI patients in a Chinese population. METHODS We performed a retrospective observational study on 2,722 AMI patients between January 2013 and December 2017. Of these patients, 1,471 patients from Changsha city, Hunan Province, China were assigned to the development cohort, and 1,251 patients from Xiangtan city, Hunan Province, China, were assigned to the validation cohort. Forty-five candidate variables assessed at admission were screened using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, stepwise backward regression, and Cox regression methods to construct the C2ABS2-GLPK score, which was graded and stratified using a nomogram and X-tile. The score was internally and externally validated. The C-statistic and Hosmer-Lemeshow test were used to assess discrimination and calibration, respectively. RESULTS From the 45 candidate variables obtained at admission, 10 potential predictors, namely, including Creatinine, experience of Cardiac arrest, Age, N-terminal Pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide, a history of Stroke, Statins therapy, fasting blood Glucose, Left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, Percutaneous coronary intervention and Killip classification were identified as having a close association with 5-year mortality in patients with AMI and collectively termed the C2ABS2-GLPK score. The score had good discrimination (C-statistic = 0.811, 95% confidence intervals (CI) [0.786-0.836]) and calibration (calibration slope = 0.988) in the development cohort. In the external validation cohort, the score performed well in both discrimination (C-statistic = 0.787, 95% CI [0.756-0.818]) and calibration (calibration slope = 0.976). The patients were stratified into low- (≤148), medium- (149 to 218) and high-risk (≥219) categories according to the C2ABS2-GLPK score. The predictive performance of the score was also validated in all subpopulations of both cohorts. CONCLUSION The C2ABS2-GLPK score is a Chinese population-based risk assessment tool to predict 5-year mortality in AMI patients based on 10 variables that are routinely assessed at admission. This score can assist physicians in stratifying high-risk patients and optimizing emergency medical interventions to improve long-term survival in patients with AMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The effect of malnutrition in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is not fully understood. In this study, we tried to investigate the prognostic consequence of the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score in patients with STEMI. METHODS In this study, we evaluated the CONUT scores of 1,028 patients with STEMI and examined its relationship with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (all-cause mortality, myocardial reinfarction, and vessel revascularization) during a period of 19.9±10.3 months. Patients with CONUT score ≥5 were defined as severely malnourished. Predictors of MACE were assessed by Cox regression analysis, and p<0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS MACE was observed in a total of 147 (14.3%) patients. MACE was more frequent in the group with a higher CONUT score (33.3% vs. 10.9%, p<0.001). CONUT score ≥5 was an independent predictor of MACE in the Cox regression analysis (hazard ratio=2.50, 95% confidence interval: 1.61-3.90, p<0.001). Low ejection fraction, Killip class ≥3 at presentation, thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow grade <3 after intervention, left main artery involvement, and low hemoglobin levels were other independent predictors of MACE in the long-term follow-up. Kaplan-Meier curves showed decreased MACE free survival rates in the high CONUT score group at a mean 19.9±10.3 months' follow-up duration (log-rank p<0.01). CONCLUSION Malnutrition was strongly associated with poor outcomes in patients with STEMI treated using primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Statins, beta-blockers, and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin II receptor blockers have been advocated by guidelines as secondary prevention medications to improve the long-term outcomes of post-acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. However, adequate drug adherence has always been challenging, and different treatment regimens may lead to divergent outcomes that remain unclear under current myocardial infarction (MI) care standards. This study investigated the association between use of different preventive regimens post-AMI and patients' long-term outcomes. METHODS This cohort study used data files from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. A total of 77 520 people who were hospitalized with AMI between 2002 and 2015 were assessed. On the basis of medication possession ratio (MPR) to individual medications, eight treatment groups were examined in this study. Receiving therapy was defined as MPR ≥40%. We investigated the association between different treatment groups and all-cause mortality in 24 months. RESULTS Overall, 51 322 patients with ST-elevation MI and 26 198 with non-ST-elevation MI were included in the study. Patients received all three preventive medications show the lowest mortality in 24 months follow-up periods among all treatment groups. Patients who did not usage of any of these three preventive medications had the highest mortality in 24 months (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.78; 95% CI, 1.64-1.93). This mortality rate had the same pattern across the three cohort generations (2002-2005, 2006-2010, and 2011-2015). CONCLUSION In this large population-based real-world study, usage of three preventive therapies post-MI was associated with the lowest rate of all-cause mortality.

Abstract
Background Coronary artery bypass grafting has remained an important treatment option for acute coronary syndromes, particularly in patients (1) with ongoing ischemia and large areas of jeopardized myocardium, if percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) cannot be performed; (2) following successful PCI of the culprit lesion with further indication for coronary artery bypass grafting; and (3) where PCI is incomplete, not sufficient, or failed. Methods and Results We aimed to analyze coronary artery bypass grafting outcome following prior PCI in acute coronary syndromes from the North-Rhine-Westphalia surgical myocardial infarction registry comprising 2616 patients. Primary end points were in-hospital all-cause mortality and major adverse cardio-cerebral event. Patients were 68±11 years of age, had 3-vessel and left main-stem disease in 80.4% and 45.3%, presenting a logistic EuroSCORE of 15.1% in unstable angina, 20.3% in non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, and 23.5% in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. A history of PCI was present in 36.2% and PCI was performed within 24 hours before surgery in 5.2% in unstable angina, 5.9% in non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, and 16.1% in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction. PCI failed in 5.3% in unstable angina, 6.8% in non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction and 17.2% in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, and 28.8% of patients presented with cardiogenic shock. In-hospital mortality without PCI was 7.4%, but increased to 8.7% with prior PCI >24 hours, 14.5% with prior PCI <24 hours, and 14.1% with failed PCI (P<0.003). The in-hospital major adverse cardio-cerebral event rate was 16.4% without PCI, but 17.4% with prior PCI >24 hours, 25.6% with prior PCI <24 hours, and 41.3% with failed PCI (P=0.014). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed prior PCI (P=0.039), as well as failed PCI (P=0.001) to be predictors for in-hospital all-cause mortality and major adverse cardio-cerebral event. Conclusions In the current PCI era, immediately prior or failed PCI before coronary artery bypass grafting in acute coronary syndromes is associated with high perioperative risk, cardiogenic shock, and increased morbidity and mortality.

Establishing the optimal duration of DAPT following PCI in high-risk TWILIGHT-like patients with acute coronary syndrome. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2021; 99:98-113. [PMID: 33909311 DOI: 10.1002/ccd.29741] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2021] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the association of extended-term (>12-month) versus short-term dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with ischemic and hemorrhagic events in high-risk "TWILIGHT-like" patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in clinical practice. BACKGROUND Recent emphasis on shorter DAPT regimen after PCI irrespective of indication for PCI may fail to account for the substantial residual risk of recurrent atherothrombotic events in ACS patients. METHODS All consecutive patients fulfilling the "TWILIGHT-like" criteria undergoing PCI were identified from the prospective Fuwai PCI Registry. High-risk patients (n = 8,358) were defined by at least one clinical and one angiographic feature based on TWILIGHT trial selection criteria. The primary ischemic endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events at 30 months, composed of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, or stroke while BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding was key secondary outcome. RESULTS Of 4,875 high-risk ACS patients who remained event-free at 12 months after PCI, DAPT>12-month compared with shorter DAPT reduced the primary ischemic endpoint by 63% (1.5 vs. 3.8%; HRadj: 0.374, 95% CI: 0.256-0.548; HRmatched: 0.361, 95% CI: 0.221-0.590). The HR for cardiovascular death was 0.049 (0.007-0.362) and that for MI 0.45 (0.153-1.320) and definite/probable stent thrombosis 0.296 (0.080-1.095) in propensity-matched analyses. Rates of BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding (0.9 vs. 1.3%; HRadj: 0.668 [0.379-1.178]; HRmatched: 0.721 [0.369-1.410]) did not differ significantly between two groups. CONCLUSIONS Among high-risk ACS patients undergoing PCI, long-term DAPT, compared with shorter DAPT, reduced ischemic events without a concomitant increase in clinically meaning bleeding events, suggesting that prolonged DAPT can be considered in ACS patients who present with a particularly higher risk for thrombotic complications without excessive risk of bleeding.

Abstract
Background One of the modifiable risk factors for ST elevation myocardial infarction is prehospital delay. The purpose of our study was to look at the effect of contamination contamination obsession on prehospital delay compared with other measurements during the Covid-19 pandemic. Method A total of 139 patients with acute STEMI admitted to our heart center from 20 March 2020 to 20 June 2020 were included in this study. If the time interval between the estimated onset of symptoms and admission to the emergency room was >120 min, it was considered as a prehospital delay. The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Padua Inventory-Washington State University Revision (PI-WSUR) test were used to assess Contamination-Obbsessive compulsive disorder (C-OCD). Result The same period STEMI count compared to the previous year decreased 25%. The duration of symptoms onset to hospital admission was longer in the first month compared to second and third months (180 (120–360), 120 (60–180), and 105 (60–180), respectively; P = 0.012). Multivariable logistic regression (model-2) was used to examine the association between 7 candidate predictors (age, gender, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension, smoking, pain-onset time, and coronary artery disease (CAD) history), PI-WSUR C-OCD, and admission month with prehospital delay. Among variables, PI-WSUR C-OCD and admission month were independently associated with prehospital delay (OR 5.36 (2.11–13.61) (P = 0.01); 0.26 (0.09–0.87) p < 0.001] respectively]. Conclusion Our study confirmed that contamination obsession was associated with prehospital delay of STEMI patients, however anxiety and depression level was not associated during the pandemic.

Abstract
A few decades ago, the understanding of the pathophysiological processes involved in the coronary artery thrombus formation has placed anticoagulant and antiplatelet agents at the core of the management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Increasingly potent antithrombotic agents have since been evaluated, in various association, timing, or dosage, in numerous randomized controlled trials to interrupt the initial thrombus formation, prevent ischemic complications, and ultimately improve survival. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention, initial parenteral anticoagulation, and dual antiplatelet therapy with potent P2Y12 inhibitors have become the hallmark of ACS management revolutionizing its prognosis. Despite these many improvements, much more remains to be done to optimize the onset of action of the various antithrombotic therapies, for further treating and preventing thrombotic events without exposing the patients to an unbearable hemorrhagic risk. The availability of various potent P2Y12 inhibitors has opened the door for individualized therapeutic strategies based on the clinical setting as well as the ischemic and bleeding risk of the patients, while the added value of aspirin has been recently challenged. The strategy of dual-pathway inhibition with P2Y12 inhibitors and low-dose non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant has brought promising results for the early and late management of patients presenting with ACS with and without indication for oral anticoagulation. In this updated review, we aimed at describing the evidence supporting the current gold standard of antithrombotic management of ACS. More importantly, we provide an overview of some of the ongoing issues and promising therapeutic strategies of this ever-evolving topic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malnutrition is associated with poor prognosis in a wide range of illnesses. However, its prognostic impact in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is not well known. OBJECTIVES This study sought to report the prevalence, clinical associations, and prognostic consequences of malnutrition in patients with ACS. METHODS In this study, the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, the Nutritional Risk Index (NRI), and the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) was applied to 5,062 consecutive patients with ACS. The relationships between malnutrition risk and all-cause mortality and major cardiovascular events (MACEs) (cardiovascular mortality, reinfarction, or ischemic stroke) were examined. RESULTS According to the CONUT score, NRI, and PNI, 11.2%, 39.5%, and 8.9% patients were moderately or severely malnourished, respectively; 71.8% were at least mildly malnourished by at least 1 score. Although worse scores were most strongly related to lower body mass index, between 8.4% and 36.7% of patients with a body mass index of ≥25 kg/m2 were moderately or severely malnourished, depending on the nutritional index used. During a median follow-up of 3.6 years (interquartile range: 1.3 to 5.3 years), 830 (16.4%) patients died, and 1,048 (20.7%) had MACEs. Compared with good nutritional status, malnutrition was associated with significantly increased risk for all-cause death (adjusted hazard ratio for moderate and severe degrees of malnutrition, respectively: 2.02 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.65 to 2.49] and 3.65 [95% CI: 2.41 to 5.51] for the CONUT score, 1.40 [95% CI: 1.17 to 1.68] and 2.87 [95% CI: 2.17 to 3.79] for the NRI, and 1.71 [95% CI: 1.37 to 2.15] and 1.95 [95% CI: 1.55 to 2.45] for the PNI score; p values <0.001 for all nutritional indexes). Similar results were found for the CONUT score and PNI regarding MACEs. All risk scores improve the predictive ability of the GRACE (Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events) risk score for both all-cause mortality and MACEs. CONCLUSIONS Malnutrition is common among patients with ACS and is strongly associated with increased mortality and cardiovascular events. Clinical trials are needed to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of nutritional interventions on outcomes in patients with ACS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Depression and malnutrition are prevalent among people with coronary artery disease (CAD) and can affect their prognosis, but the relationship between depression and malnutrition and its co-effect on prognosis is not clear. We sought to explore that relationship and its effects. METHODS In this study, the nutritional and emotional statuses of 547 people with CAD were assessed using the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The average follow-up period was 2.1 y, after which we explored the relationship between depression and nutrition and prognosis. RESULTS A total of 41% of the participants were found to have mild malnutrition, 10% moderate to severe malnutrition, 26% had mild depression, and 11% had moderate to severe depression. A total of 20.6% of the participants were found to have comorbidities of depression and malnutrition; and both moderate to severe depression (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.674; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.098-2.551) and moderate to severe malnutrition (adjusted HR, 1.686; 95% CI, 1.073-2.648) were observed to be risk factors for the composite end point. Participants with comorbidities of depression and malnutrition were found to have increased risk of cardiovascular death (HR, 5.390; 95% CI, 1.483-19.589) and composite end point (adjusted HR, 1.791; 95% CI, 1.133-2.833) compared to those without both depression and malnutrition. CONCLUSIONS Depression and malnutrition were found to be risk factors for adverse outcomes in people with CAD. People with CAD should pay attention to their emotional and nutritional statuses, and interventions must be timely and efficient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clopidogrel is the most commonly prescribed P2Y12 inhibitor for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or stent placement, though ticagrelor or prasugrel may be preferred. Medication-related factors may influence selection of therapy. OBJECTIVES To determine which factors most greatly influence cardiology-provider and patient selection of P2Y12 inhibitor to guide shared-decision making (SDM). METHODS Single-center study assessed survey responses from 32 cardiology-providers who prescribed and 105 patients who received clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor for ACS or stent placement. Respondents ranked factors influencing P2Y12 inhibitor selection and reported preference of therapy. Patients reported experience with shared decision-making process. RESULTS Cardiology-providers ranked risk of bleeding, comfort/experience, and cost as most influential. Patients ranked risk of drug interaction, adverse effects, and reduction in myocardial infarction as most influential. Significant differences between cardiology-providers and patients were found for 5 of 8 factors. Cardiology-providers ranked once daily administration (p = 0.01), risk of bleeding (p = 0.002), and cost (p < 0.001) as more important than patients. Patients ranked risk of adverse effects (p = 0.007) and drug interactions (p = 0.005) as more important than cardiology-providers. Cardiology-providers prescribed ticagrelor 42.3% of the time following ACS, though 78.1% ranked it as their preferred agent. Patients were prescribed ticagrelor 9.3% of the time, though 55.7% ranked it as their preferred agent. Use of SDM was reported by 21.6% of patients and 88.5% were unaware that multiple P2Y12 inhibitors existed. CONCLUSION Significant differences exist between cardiology-providers and patients regarding factors influencing P2Y12 inhibitor selection, specifically safety-related factors, once daily administration, and cost. Most patients were not involved in SDM.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of atorvastatin against heart ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and its potential underlying mechanism. Rats were allocated into the following groups: Sham, I/R, atorvastatin (10 mg/kg daily), fasudil (10 mg/kg daily) and atorvastatin + fasudil in combination. Drugs were administered for 2 weeks prior to I/R injury. I/R was established by ligating the left anterior descending branch (LAD) for 30 min and releasing the ligature for 180 min. The I/R group was found to have increased myocardial infarct size, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, levels of plasma interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and Rho-kinase activity compared with the other treatment groups (P<0.05). Moreover, pretreatment with atorvastatin significantly attenuated Rho-kinase activity, myocardial infarct size, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, levels of plasma IL-6 and TNF-α, SOD activity and MDA levels, and upregulated nitric oxide production. It was also indicated that the specific Rho-kinase inhibitor, fasudil, had the same effects as atorvastatin in I/R. Therefore, the present results suggested atorvastatin may lead to cardiovascular protection, which may be mediated by Rho-kinase inhibition in heart I/R injury.

Abstract
Dual antiplatelet therapy combining aspirin with a P2Y12-receptor inhibitor reduces atherothrombotic events following an acute coronary syndromes (ACS), but the relative merits of different P2Y12 inhibitors remain unclear, despite several recent large-scale trials. We performed a network meta-analysis, representing the largest evidence to date to inform P2Y12 inhibitor choice in patients with ACS. Fourteen studies were included, for a total population of 145,019 patients. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were used in this systematic review. A network meta-analysis using a frequentist approach with surface under the cumulative ranking probability calculation was performed. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), definite stent thrombosis (ST) and major bleeding at 30-day and 1-year all-cause death and MI were the study endpoints. At 30-day, prasugrel was superior to both clopidogrel and ticagrelor in MACE, all-cause death and definite ST endpoints. Both prasugrel and ticagrelor were superior to clopidogrel in MI endpoint. Ticagrelor also reduced all-cause death compared with clopidogrel. Ticagrelor, prasugrel, and clopidogrel resulted equivalent in terms of the safety outcome of 30-day major bleeding. No significant difference was found among clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor with respect to 1-year MACE outcome. Both prasugrel and ticagrelor reduced the occurrence of 1-year all-cause death compared with clopidogrel. Prasugrel reduced 1-year MI rate as compared with clopidogrel, while ticagrelor did not. At probability analyses, prasugrel ranked best in all 30-day and 1-year efficacy and safety endpoints. In conclusion, in this network meta-analysis, prasugrel showed the highest efficacy in reducing adverse outcomes in ACS patients and had the highest probability of being the best P2Y12 inhibitor to reduce hard adverse events both at 30-day and 1-year follow-up.

Abstract
Patients who experience acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are at increased risk of new cardiovascular (CV) events. The main strategies for prevention of recurrence of CV events is the protection from ruptured plaque, thrombus formation, occlusion or downstream embolization in the coronary artery. The percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting and anticoagulants, 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (HMGCoAi, commonly called statins) and neurohormonal inhibition, has led to a notable decrease in 1-year mortality events. Today it is well documented that all patients with an ACS should be treated early, intensively and continuously for lowering the LDL-C values to the recommended goals. Regularly interviewing by trained health care personnel and post-discharge follow-up of patients after ACS seems to be more effective concerning adherence to statin for achieving LDL-C treatment goals compared with the standard of care.
