Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study sought to investigate the clinical predictive value of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) for the long-term target vessel failure (TVF) outcome in patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) by using drug-coated balloon (DCB) treatment after a long-term follow-up. METHODS This was a retrospective study. A total of 186 patients who underwent DCB angioplasty for ISR in two hospitals from March 2014 to September 2019 were enrolled. The QFR of the entire target vessel was measured offline. The primary endpoint was TVF, including target vessel-cardiac death (TV-CD), target vessel-myocardial infarction (TV-MI), and clinically driven-target vessel revascularization (CD-TVR). RESULTS The follow-up time was 3.09±1.53 years, and 50 patients had TVF. The QFR immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was significantly lower in the TVF group than in the no-TVF group. Multivariable Cox regression analysis indicated that the QFR immediately after PCI was an excellent predictor for TVF after the long-term follow-up [hazard ratio (HR): 5.15×10-5 (6.13×10-8-0.043); P<0.01]. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis demonstrated that the optimal cut-off value of the QFR immediately after PCI for predicting the long-term TVF was 0.925 (area under the curve: 0.886, 95% confidence interval: 0.834-0.938; sensitivity: 83.40%, specificity: 88.00; P<0.01). In addition, QFR≤0.925 post-PCI was strongly correlated with the TVF, including TV-MI and CD-TVR (P<0.01). CONCLUSION The QFR immediately after PCI showed a high predictive value of TVF after a long-term follow-up in ISR patients who underwent DCB angioplasty. A lower QFR immediately after PCI was associated with a worse TVF outcome.

Recurrent Revascularization at 10 Years After Percutaneous Treatment of Drug-Eluting Stent Restenosis. JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2024; 17:1-13. [PMID: 37902151 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2023.10.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/13/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of patients with recurrence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains particularly challenging, with data and guideline recommendations for repeat percutaneous coronary intervention being scant. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term incidence of recurrent revascularization events after percutaneous treatment of drug-eluting stent (DES) ISR. METHODS In this post hoc analysis, 402 patients (500 lesions) assigned to plain balloon (PB), drug-coated balloon (DCB), or DES treatment in the randomized ISAR-DESIRE 3 (Efficacy Study of Paclitaxel-Eluting Balloon, -Stent vs. Plain Angioplasty for Drug-Eluting Stent Restenosis) trial were followed up over a median of 10.3 years. The primary endpoint was total repeat target lesion revascularization (R-TLR) including all, first and recurrent, events. RESULTS At the end of follow-up, first R-TLR was required in 204 lesions, 82 in the PB group, 70 in the DCB group, and 52 in the DES group. The total number of R-TLRs was 373: 162 in the PB group, 124 in the DCB group, and 87 in the DES group. During the first year of follow-up, the risk for total R-TLR was reduced by DCB (HR: 0.36; 95% CI: 0.24-0.54) and DES (HR: 0.23; 95% CI: 0.14-0.38) treatment compared with PB treatment. After 1 year, the risk for total R-TLR was nonsignificantly reduced by DCB treatment (HR: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.51-1.16) and significantly reduced by DES treatment (HR: 0.61; 95% CI: 0.39-0.95) compared with PB treatment. Risk in the DCB and DES groups was similar during (HR: 1.54; 95% CI: 0.89-2.69) and after (HR: 1.26; 95% CI: 0.82-1.92) 1 year. CONCLUSIONS The total number of R-TLRs over 10 years after treatment of patients with DES ISR was high. DCBs and particularly DES were able to reduce the need for both first and recurrent revascularization compared with PB treatment.

Abstract
Stent failure remains the major drawback to the use of coronary stents as a revascularization strategy. Recent advances in imaging have substantially improved our understanding of the mechanisms underlying these occurrences, which have in common numerous clinical risk factors and mechanical elements at the time of stent implantation. In-stent restenosis remains a common clinical problem despite numerous improvements in-stent design and polymer coatings over the past 2 decades. It generates significant health care cost and is associated with an increased risk of death and rehospitalization. Stent thrombosis causes abrupt closure of the stented artery and therefore carries a high risk of myocardial infarction and death. This Society for Cardiovascular Angiography & Interventions (SCAI) Expert Consensus Statement suggests updated practical algorithmic approaches to in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis. A pragmatic outline of assessment and management of patients presenting with stent failure is presented. A new SCAI classification that is time-sensitive with mechanistic implications of in-stent restenosis is proposed. Emphasis is placed on frequent use of intracoronary imaging and assessment of timing to determine the precise etiology because that information is crucial to guide selection of the best treatment option. SCAI recommends image-guided coronary stenting at the time of initial implantation to minimize the occurrence of stent failure. When in-stent restenosis and stent thrombosis are encountered, imaging should be strongly considered to optimize the subsequent approach.

Abstract
Drug-coated balloons (DCBs) have emerged for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) of in-stent restenosis or particular anatomical subsets. We provide a real-world analysis of the prognostic determinants and long-term outcomes of patients treated with DCB for any lesion in a comprehensive multicenter registry. The primary study endpoint was the occurrence of major cardiovascular events (MACE: composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, and target vessel revascularization) at the longest available follow-up. We included 267 patients (196 treated for in-stent restenosis and 71 for de novo lesions), with a median follow-up of 616 [368–1025] days. MACE occurred in 70 (26.2%) of the patients and related with higher rates of in-stent restenosis (P = .04), longer and more type C lesions ( P = .05 and P = .04). At multivariate Cox-regression, type C lesions emerged as the only independent predictor of MACE (adjusted OR [95% CI] = 1.83[1.13–2.97], P = .014), mainly driven by target vessel revascularization (adjusted OR[95% CI] = 1.78[1.05–2.95], P = .03) not conditioning survival. In-stent restenosis emerged as major determinant of TLF (adjusted OR[95% CI] = 2.59[1.17–5.75], P = .02). DCBs represent a treatment option for any lesion; however, type C and restenotic lesions are associated with an increased risk of MACE and target lesion failure, where the optimal strategies for patients’ selection and lesion preparation are still undefined.

Outcomes and prognostic factors of patients treated for in-stent restenosis: a retrospective single-center experience. Egypt Heart J 2022; 74:42. [PMID: 35596845 PMCID: PMC9124276 DOI: 10.1186/s43044-022-00281-x] [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: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains relatively common despite the use of drug-eluting stents. Outcomes and prognostic factors following ISR revascularization are still being investigated. We aimed to describe the outcomes following different ISR treatment strategies in order to identify prognostic factors associated with worse outcomes. RESULTS In a retrospective cohort study, we included patients who were admitted to our department and treated for ISR, from January 2017 to December 2018. All patients were followed up for a median period of 24 months. Major cardiac adverse event (MACE) was a composite outcome of the following events: myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, target lesion revascularization or cardiovascular death. MACEs were collected during follow-up. Our population consisted of 116 patients. Mean age was 60 years old with a sex ratio of 2.8. During follow-up, 44 patients (37.9%) had at least one MACE. Independent factors identified by multivariate logistic regression were ISR of the proximal left anterior descending artery [Odds ratio (OR) = 1.29; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.16-1.81; p = 0.05], diffuse ISR [OR = 2.16; 95% CI 1.1-3.47; p = 0.022], double or triple vessel disease [OR = 2.97; 95% CI 1.2-6.8; p = 0.008], two or more stents per lesion [OR = 1.82; 95% CI 1.14-2.21, p = 0.031] and absence of post-dilatation in the initial angioplasty [OR = 1.32; 95% CI 1-1.35; p = 0.04]. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggested that ISR is related to poor outcomes. Identifying prognostic factors would play a key role in the refinement of interventional techniques.

Differential Expression of miRNA-223 in Coronary In-Stent Restenosis. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030849. [PMID: 35160300 PMCID: PMC8836934 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11030849] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2021] [Revised: 01/03/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: In-stent restenosis (ISR) is an unfavorable complication that occurs in patients after coronary stenting. Despite the progress with advent of modern DES and new antiplatelet agents, restenosis still hampers PCI short- and long-term results. The aim of this study was to investigate whether circulating miRNA-223, which is associated with HDL particles and involved in cholesterol efflux pathway, have diagnostic capability for determining ISR. Methods: This case–control study comprised 21 ISR and 26 NISR patients. The level of miRNA-223 expression was evaluated by TaqMan Real-Time PCR, quantified by the comparative method (fold change) and normalized to U6 expression. Results: Patients in ISR and NISR groups were not different in terms of demographic, clinical, and biochemical parameters, except that the percentage of patients who had DES was significantly greater in the NISR group (88.9%) in comparison with the ISR group (50%). The serum expression of miRNA-223 in ISR patients was 3.277 ± 0.9 times greater than that in NISR group (p = 0.016). In addition, the results of binary logistic regression demonstrated that the high level of serum miRNA-223 was strongly and positively associated with the ISR risk (OR: 17.818, 95% CI: 1.115–284.623, p = 0.042) after adjustment for age, sex, HDL-C, LDL-C, FBS, and statin consumption. Conclusion: Elevated serum level of miRNA-223 might be helpful in predicting the occurrence of ISR. Further confirmation in future large-scale studies is warranted.

Abstract
Background/Objectives Drug-coated balloon therapy for diseased superficial femoral arteries remains controversial. Despite its clinical relevance, only a few computational studies based on simplistic two-dimensional models have been proposed to investigate this endovascular therapy to date. This work addresses the aforementioned limitation by analyzing the drug transport and kinetics occurring during drug-coated balloon deployment in a three-dimensional geometry. Methods An idealized three-dimensional model of a superficial femoral artery presenting with a calcific plaque and treated with a drug-coated balloon was created to perform transient mass transport simulations. To account for the transport of drug (i.e. paclitaxel) released by the device, a diffusion-reaction equation was implemented by describing the drug bound to specific intracellular receptors through a non-linear, reversible reaction. The following features concerning procedural aspects, pathologies and modelling assumptions were investigated: (i) balloon application time (60–180 seconds); (ii) vessel wall composition (healthy vs. calcified wall); (iii) sequential balloon application; and (iv) drug wash-out by the blood stream vs. coating retention, modeled as exponential decay. Results The balloon inflation time impacted both the free and specifically-bound drug concentrations in the vessel wall. The vessel wall composition highly affected the drug concentrations. In particular, the specifically-bound drug concentration was four orders of magnitude lower in the calcific compared with healthy vessel wall portions, primarily as a result of reduced drug diffusion. The sequential application of two drug-coated balloons led to modest differences (~15%) in drug concentration immediately after inflation, which became negligible within 10 minutes. The retention of the balloon coating increased the drug concentration in the vessel wall fourfold. Conclusions The overall findings suggest that paclitaxel kinetics may be affected not only by the geometrical and compositional features of the vessel treated with the drug-coated balloon, but also by balloon design characteristics and procedural aspects that should be carefully considered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate prognostic value of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) in drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for in-stent restenosis (ISR). BACKGROUND There is a high incidence of recurrent ISR after DCB angioplasty. QFR is a novel method for fast computation of fractional flow reserve for the target vessel based on quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) and fluid dynamics algorithms. METHODS Patients participating in the RESTORE ISR China randomized trial were enrolled and classified into the recurrent restenosis group and the non-recurrent restenosis group. The binary classifications followed the QCA standards of ISR. Clinical and angiographic characteristics of the groups were analyzed, and the QFRs before and after lesion preparation and after final DCB angioplasty were measured and compared. RESULTS A total of 208 patients who underwent follow-up angiography were enrolled in the study, with 226 lesions measured in total. QFR value after DCB angioplasty (odds ratio [OR] 0.88; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.83-0.93; p < .0001 for 1 mm increase), lesion length (OR: 1.08; 95% CI: 1.01-1.15; p = .017), and vessel caliber lumen diameter (OR: 0.35; 95% CI 0.13-0.89; p = .027) were independently associated with recurrent restenosis after DCB angioplasty. The optimal QFR cut-off value was determined to be 0.90 with a sensitivity of 0.94, specificity of 0.56, and accuracy of 0.79 in predicting recurrent restenosis. CONCLUSIONS The QFR value after DCB angioplasty is a promising predictor of DES ISR.

Abstract
In-stent restenosis (ISR) is one of the main limitations of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) therapy with drug-eluting stents (DES) implantation. The aim of this study was to determine if circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have diagnostic capability for determining ISR in a cohort of matched patients. Blood samples were collected from 55 patients who underwent previously PCI and were readmitted for a new coronary angiography. Patients were divided into subgroups comprising patients who presented ISR or not (non-ISR). A microarray analysis determined that up to 49 miRNAs were differentially expressed between ISR and non-ISR patients. Of these, 10 miRNAs are related to vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells proliferation, migration, and differentiation, well-known hallmarks of vascular remodeling. Additionally, we identified that the expression of miR-30b-5p is significantly lower in serum samples of ISR patients, as compared to non-ISR. A further analysis demonstrated that miR-30b-5p provides better values of the receiver operator characteristic curve than other miRNAs and biochemical parameters. Finally, the in-silico analysis suggests that miR-30b-5p is predicted to target 62 genes involved in different signaling pathways involved in vascular remodeling. In conclusion, we determined for the first time that circulating mi-R30b-5p can reliably prognose restenosis in patient with implanted DES, which could be potentially helpful in the establishment of an early diagnosis and therapy of ISR.

Baseline local hemodynamics as predictor of lumen remodeling at 1-year follow-up in stented superficial femoral arteries. Sci Rep 2021; 11:1613. [PMID: 33452294 PMCID: PMC7810829 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-80681-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 12/24/2020] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
In-stent restenosis (ISR) is the major drawback of superficial femoral artery (SFA) stenting. Abnormal hemodynamics after stent implantation seems to promote the development of ISR. Accordingly, this study aims to investigate the impact of local hemodynamics on lumen remodeling in human stented SFA lesions. Ten SFA models were reconstructed at 1-week and 1-year follow-up from computed tomography images. Patient-specific computational fluid dynamics simulations were performed to relate the local hemodynamics at 1-week, expressed in terms of time-averaged wall shear stress (TAWSS), oscillatory shear index and relative residence time, with the lumen remodeling at 1-year, quantified as the change of lumen area between 1-week and 1-year. The TAWSS was negatively associated with the lumen area change (ρ = - 0.75, p = 0.013). The surface area exposed to low TAWSS was positively correlated with the lumen area change (ρ = 0.69, p = 0.026). No significant correlations were present between the other hemodynamic descriptors and lumen area change. The low TAWSS was the best predictive marker of lumen remodeling (positive predictive value of 44.8%). Moreover, stent length and overlapping were predictor of ISR at follow-up. Despite the limited number of analyzed lesions, the overall findings suggest an association between abnormal patterns of WSS after stenting and lumen remodeling.

Abstract
As a receptor for transforming growth factor-β, nodal and activin, activin receptor-like kinase 7 (ALK7) previously acts as a suppressor of tumorigenesis and metastasis, which has emerged to play a key role in cardiovascular diseases. However, the potential effect and molecular mechanism of ALK7 on vascular smooth muscle cells' (VSMCs) phenotypic modulation have not been investigated. Using cultured mouse VSMCs with platelet-derived growth factor-BB administration, we observed that ALK7 showed a significantly increased expression in VSMCs accompanied by decreased VSMCs differentiation marker genes. Loss-of-function study demonstrated that ALK7 knockdown inhibited platelet-derived growth factor-BB-induced VSMCs phenotypic modulation characterized by increased VSMCs differentiation markers, reduced proliferation, and migration of VSMCs. Such above effects were reversed by ALK7 overexpression. Notably, we noticed that ALK7 silencing dramatically enhanced PPARγ expression, which was required for the attenuated effect of ALK7 knockdown on VSMCs phenotypic modulation. Collected, we identified that ALK7 acted as a novel and positive regulator for VSMCs phenotypic modulation partially through inactivation of PPARγ, which suggested that neutralization of ALK7 might act as a promising therapeutic strategy of intimal hyperplasia.
