Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the long-term outcome differences between acute myocardial infarction (MI) and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) patients treated with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). METHODS We studied retrospectively patients with MI (n = 1882) or stable CAD (n = 13117) treated with isolated CABG between 2004 and 2014. Inverse propensity probability weight adjustment for baseline features was used. Median follow-up was 7.9 years. RESULTS In-hospital mortality (8.6% vs. 1.6%; OR 5.94; p < .0001) and re-sternotomy (5.5% vs. 2.7%; OR 2.07; p < .0001) were more common in MI patients compared to stable CAD patients. Hospital surviving MI patients had higher all-cause mortality (28.2% vs. 22.2%; HR 1.37; p = .002) and MACE rate (34.4% vs. 27.4%; HR 1.22; CI 1.00-1.50; p = .049) at 10-year follow-up. Cardiovascular mortality (15.9% vs. 12.7%; HR 1.36; p = .017) and rate of new myocardial infarction (12.0% vs. 9.8%; HR 1.40; p = .034) were also higher in MI patients during follow-up. In follow-up of stabilized first-year survivors, the difference in all-cause (26.5% vs. 20.7%; HR 1.40; p = .003) and cardiovascular (14.2% vs. 11.4%; HR 1.37; p = .027) mortality continued to increase between MI and stable CAD patients. CONCLUSION MI patients have poorer short- and long-term outcomes compared to stable CAD patients after CABG and risk difference continues to increase with time. Key Messages Patients with myocardial infarction have poorer short- and long-term outcomes compared to stable coronary artery disease patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Higher risk of death continues also in stabilized first-year myocardial infarct survivors. The importance of efficient secondary prevention and follow-up highlights in post-myocardial infarct population after CABG.

Abstract
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the recommended type of revascularization procedure in patients with left main or three-vessel disease and is considered an alternative when percutaneous coronary intervention is not feasible. We evaluated registry data to obtain long-term outcome data.All patients ≤45 years in whom CABG was performed between 2009 and 2019 were selected from the Heart and Diabetes Center NRW, Germany. Cox regression analysis was applied to estimate the incidence risk of events after surgery.A total of 209 patients (81.8% male) were included. Mean (standard deviation) follow-up duration was 5.8 (3.1) years. The combined outcome of death, stroke, myocardial infarction, or repeated revascularization occurred in 31 patients (14.8%). Estimated mean time to event was 8.5 (standard error: 0.22) years. By the end of the follow-up period, 8 patients (3.8%) had died, among whom 2 (1.0%) died within 1 month after surgery, 1 (0.5%) within 1 year, 1 (0.5%) within 2 years, and 4 (1.9%) after 2 years.Risk factors independently associated with postsurgery events were angina pectoris CCS (Canadian Cardiovascular Society) class IV (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 4.954; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.322-18.563; p = 0.018) and STS (Society of Thoracic Surgeons) score (adjusted HR: 1.152 per scoring point; 95% CI: 1.040-1.276; p = 0.007).After performing CABG in patients ≤45 years, event-free long-term outcomes were observed in the majority of patients. Presence of angina pectoris CCS class IV and higher STS scores were independently associated with adverse postsurgery events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our retrospective study evaluates the impact on short - and long-term outcome according to the graft selection during emergency coronary revascularization surgery. METHODS 339 Patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing emergency coronary bypass surgery at our institution from 2008 until 2018 were analyzed using propensity score analysis. The primary endpoint was in-hospital survival. Secondary endpoints were postoperative bleeding, contractile dysfunction, postoperative percutaneous coronary intervention, myocardial infarction and wound infection. Patients were divided in two groups according to the bypass grafts received ((group 0, (n = 222): combined arterial and venous grafts for the and group 1 (n = 117): complete arterial revascularization). RESULTS There is significant improvement of left ventricular function postoperatively in patients undergoing emergency coronary revascularization for acute myocardial infarction where arterial grafts were used. Furthermore, there is significant difference between postoperative cardiac enzymes with lower values in group 1 (creatine kinase myocardial band p=0.0001; Troponin T p= 0,010). There was no significant difference in short and long-term survival between two groups. 5-years survival analysis between both groups did not show significant difference with Log-Rank test adjusted p-value = 0,49 (unadjusted p-value = 0.005). There was no significant difference in perioperative myocardial infarction, postoperative bleeding, and the need for postoperative coronary angiography. CONCLUSIONS Emergency coronary artery bypass grafting with arterial grafts shows significant improvement of left ventricular function postoperatively. However, utilization of bilateral internal mammary artery grafts in emergency coronary revascularization has no significant impact on short term or 5-year survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this was to analyse current outcomes in patients referred to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for acute coronary syndromes (ACSs), including ST-elevation or non-ST-elevation ACS (non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) or unstable angina. METHODS Patients (n = 2432) undergoing CABG for ACS between January 2010 and December 2017 were prospectively entered into a surgical myocardial infarction registry in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Key end points were in-hospital all-cause mortality (IHM) and major adverse cardio-cerebral events (MACCE). Predictors for IHM and MACCE were analysed by multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS Patients (78% males) were referred for CABG for unstable angina (25%), non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (50%), and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (25%). The mean patient age was 68 ± 11 years, logistic EuroSCORE was 19 ± 18% and three-vessel and left main stem diseases were diagnosed in 81% and 45% of patients, respectively. On-pump CABG with cardiac arrest or beating heart was performed in 92% and 2%, respectively, with only 6% off-pump surgery and 6% multiple arterial revascularization (3.1 ± 1.0 grafts, 93% left internal thoracic artery). Emergency CABG was performed in 23% of patients (42% in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; P < 0.001). The total IHM and MACCE rates were 8.1% and 17.5% and were highest in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with 12.6% and 28.5%, respectively (P < 0.001). Key predictors for IHM and MACCE were female gender, elevated troponin, left ventricular ejection fraction, inotropic support, logistic EuroSCORE, cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic clamp time and the need for emergency CABG. CONCLUSIONS Surgical myocardial revascularization in patients with ACS is still linked to substantial in-hospital mortality. Emergency CABG for patients with ACS was associated with poorer outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The benefits and risks of blood transfusion in patients with acute myocardial infarction who are anemic or who experience bleeding are debated. We sought to study the association between blood transfusion and ischemic outcomes according to haemoglobin nadir and bleeding status in patients with NST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). METHODS The TAO trial randomized patients with NSTEMI and coronary angiogram scheduled within 72h to heparin plus eptifibatide versus otamixaban. After exclusion of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass surgery, patients were categorized according to transfusion status considering transfusion as a time-varying covariate. The primary ischemic outcome was the composite of all-cause death or MI within 180 days of randomization. Subgroup analyses were performed according to pre-transfusion hemoglobin nadir and bleeding status. RESULTS 12,547 patients were enrolled. Among these, blood transfusion was used in 489 (3.9%) patients. Patients who received transfusion had a higher rate of death or MI (29.9% vs. 8.1%, p<0.01). This excess risk persisted after adjustment on GRACE score and nadir of hemoglobin (HR 3.36 95%CI 2.63-4.29 p<0.01). Subgroup analyses showed that blood transfusion was associated with a higher risk in patients without overt bleeding (adjusted HR 6.25 vs. 2.85; p-interaction 0.001) as well as in those with hemoglobin nadir > 9.0 g/dl (HR 4.01; p-interaction<0.0001). CONCLUSION In patients with NSTEMI, blood transfusion was associated with an overall increased risk of ischaemic events. However, this was mainly driven by patients without overt bleeding and those hemoglobin nadir > 9.0g/dl. This suggests possible harm of transfusion in those groups.

Abstract
High-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) is a widely used biomarker to identify ischemic chest pain in the Emergency Department (ED), but the clinical impact on emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (eCABG) remains undetermined. We aimed to evaluate the clinical impact of hs-cTnI measured at the ED by comparing outcomes of eCABG in patients with non–ST-segment–elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) which comprises unstable angina (UA) and non–ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). From January 2012 to March 2016, 242 patients undergoing eCABG were grouped according to serum hs-cTnI level in the ED. The primary endpoint was major cardiovascular cerebral event (MACCE) defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, repeat revascularization, and stroke. The incidence of each MACCE composite, in addition to postoperative complications such as acute kidney injury, reoperation, atrial fibrillation, and hospital stay duration were also compared. Patients were divided into two groups: UA [<0.04 ng/mL, n = 102] and NSTEMI [≥0.04 ng/mL, n = 140]. The incidence of MACCE did not differ between the two groups. Postoperative acute kidney injury was more frequent in the NSTEMI group after adjusting for confounding factors (6.9% vs. 23.6%; odds ratio, 2.76; 95% confidence interval, 1.09–6.99; p-value = 0.032). In-hospital stay was also longer in the NSTEMI group (9.0 days vs. 15.4 days, p-value = 0.008). ECABG for UA and NSTEMI patients showed comparable outcomes, but hs-cTnI elevation at the ED may be associated with immediate postoperative complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The management of patients with carotid stenosis and symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) is challenging. This study assessed the impact of clinical coronary disease severity on carotid endarterectomy (CEA) with and without combined coronary artery bypass (CCAB). METHODS Using the Vascular Quality Initiative, patients with symptomatic CAD who underwent CCAB or isolated CEA (ICEA) from 2003 to 2017 were identified. Patients were stratified by CAD severity: stable angina (SA) and recent myocardial infarction/unstable angina (UA). Primary outcomes, including perioperative stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke/death/MI (SDM), were assessed between procedures within each CAD cohort. RESULTS There were 9098 patients identified: 887 CCAB patients (215 [24%] SA, 672 [76%] UA) and 8211 ICEA patients (6385 [78%] SA, 1826 [22%] UA). Overall, CCAB patients had higher rates of stroke (2.6% vs 1.3%; P = .002) and SDM (7.3% vs 3.5%, P < .001) but similar rates of MI (0.9% vs 1.6%; P = .12) compared with ICEA patients. In SA patients, no difference was seen in stroke (ICEA 1.2% vs CCAB 1.9%; P = .36), MI (1.3% vs 1.4%; P = .95), or SDM (2.9% vs 4.7%; P = .13). In UA patients, no difference was seen in stroke (ICEA 1.6% vs CCAB 2.8%; P = .06), but ICEA patients had higher rates of MI (2.4% vs 0.7%; P = .01) and CCAB patients had higher rates of SDM (8.2% vs 5.5%; P = .01). After logistic regression in the UA cohort, predictors of MI included ICEA (odds ratio [OR], 2.7; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-7.0; P = .04) and carotid symptomatic status (OR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.1-3.8; P = .01); carotid symptomatic status also predicted stroke (OR, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.1-3.6; P = .03), but CCAB did not. CONCLUSIONS In patients with symptomatic CAD, both clinical CAD severity and operative strategy affect outcomes. In SA patients, CCAB does not increase perioperative morbidity. However, CCAB in UA patients prevents MI while not appreciably increasing stroke risk. This suggests that coronary revascularization before or concomitant with CEA should be considered in UA patients but that prioritizing coronary intervention is less important in SA patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Preoperative frailty affects the progression of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after cardiovascular surgery. Different frailty assessment measures are available. However, it remains unclear which tool most likely predicts the progress of CR. Our aim was to evaluate preoperative frailty using different methods and to identify the predictors in the progress of postoperative CR. METHODS Eighty-nine patients underwent elective cardiovascular surgery at our institution between May 2016 and April 2018. Mortality cases and patients without evaluation of preoperative frailty were excluded. This study included the remaining 78 patients. We divided the patients into two groups: 47 patients who achieved 100 m walking within 7 days after surgery (successful CR group) and 31 patients who achieved 100 m walking later than 8 days after surgery (delayed CR group). Preoperative frailty was assessed using the Kaigo-Yobo Check-List, Cardiovascular Health Study, Short Physical Performance Battery, and Clinical Frailty Scale. RESULTS The prevalence of frailty defined by these four measures was higher in the delayed CR group. The delayed CR group had lower nutritional status, serum hemoglobin level, serum albumin level, and psoas muscle index. Multivariable analysis demonstrated the Kaigo-Yobo Check-List score as an independent predictor for delayed CR (odds ratio 1.53, 95% confidence interval 1.18-1.98, p = 0.001) and Clinical Frailty Scale as an independent predictor for discharge to a health care facility (odds ratio 3.70, 95% confidence interval 1.30-10.51, p = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS Among the various tools for assessing frailty, the Kaigo-Yobo Check-List was most likely to predict the progress of postoperative CR after elective cardiovascular surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remains the standard of care for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Debate exists concerning several factors, which include percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs. CABG, single vs. bilateral mammary artery grafts, radial artery vs. saphenous vein grafts, right internal mammary artery vs. radial artery grafts, endoscopic vs. open vein-graft harvesting, and on-pump vs. off- pump surgery. Moreover, challenging is the management of diabetic patients with CAD undergoing CABG. This review reports current indications, practice patterns, and outcomes of CABG. METHODS Randomized controlled trials comparing CABG to other therapeutical strategies for CAD were searched through MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane databases, and proceedings of international meetings. RESULTS Large multicenter randomized and observational studies (SYNTAX, BEST, PRECOMBAT, ASCERT) have reported excellent outcomes in CABG patients, with always fewer rates of operative mortality and major morbidity, than PCI. The 10-year follow-up of ARTS II trial showed no difference between single and bilateral mammary artery. BARI 2D, MASS II, CARDia, FREEDOM trials showed that CABG is the best choice for diabetic patients. CONCLUSION CABG still represents one of the most widespread major surgeries, with well-known benefits on symptoms and prognosis in patients with CAD. However, further studies and follow-up data are needed to validate these evidences.

Abstract
PURPOSE Early and long-term outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with left main disease (LMD) with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have never been assessed. METHODS Between September 2004 and April 2012, 459 patients with LMD underwent first-time isolated CABG. Of those, 191 patients had ACS and 268 did not. Early and late postoperative outcomes were compared between two groups. RESULTS Patients in the LMD+ACS group were older and more likely to be female. Left ventricular ejection fraction was lower in the LMD+ACS group. In both groups, bilateral internal thoracic artery grafts were used in over 90% of patients and off-pump technique in over 95%. Operative death rate was not significantly different between the groups (LMD+ACS: 2.1% vs. LMD-ACS 0.4%). Log-rank test revealed that the actuarial survival rate (79.2 ± 3.7% vs. 81.5 ± 3.5%) and freedom from major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (69.2 ± 4.2% vs. 67.0 ± 4.1%) were similar between groups at 7 years. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that ACS was not identified as an independent predictor of operative death, late mortality, and late MACCE. CONCLUSION ACS did not have a negative impact on early and late outcomes of CABG in patients with LMD.
