Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is pivotal in treating ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients, yet ischemia time significantly impacts outcomes, particularly left ventricular failure (LVF). OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the impact of ischemia duration and other variables associated with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction in STEMI patients receiving PPCI treatment. METHODOLOGY This prospective cohort was carried out at Lady Reading Hospital in Peshawar, Pakistan, from January to June 2023. The study included 236 patients aged 18 to 70 with acute myocardial infarction who underwent PPCI within 12 hours of symptom onset. Patients with coronary dissection, late presenters (more than 12 hours after onset), those without stenting, and those with prior coronary artery intervention were excluded. Additionally, patients with systolic heart failure, a history of arrhythmias such as ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation, or a previous acute coronary syndrome event were excluded. Demographic information, clinical background, and ischemia duration were recorded and associated with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after PPCI. To identify predictors of severe left ventricular dysfunction, statistical analysis using SPSS Statistics version 26.0 (IBM Corp. Released 2019. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 26.0. Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.) included multivariate regression, Pearson's correlation, and descriptive statistics. RESULTS The patients' average age was 61.2 years (SD ± 12.3), with 35.59% of them being female (84 patients) and 64.41% of them being male (152 patients). Diabetes (33.05%, 78 patients) and hypertension (43.22%, 102 patients) were common comorbidities, and 14.41% (34 patients) had previously had a cardiac episode. Fifty-two patients (22.03%) of the total had ischemia within three hours, 94 patients (39.83%) had ischemia within six hours, 60 patients (25.42%) had ischemia within nine hours, and 30 patients (12.71%) had ischemia within 12 hours. Analysis of LVEF showed that 9.32% of patients (n=22) had LVEF <30% and 24.58% of patients (n=58) had LVEF 30-40%. Significant predictors of severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction were shown by multivariate regression to include ischemia duration (OR 1.45, p<0.001), age (OR 1.02, p=0.015), diabetes (OR 2.34, p=0.001), hypertension (OR 1.76, p=0.031), and previous cardiac events (OR 2.89, p=0.002); 20.33% of the patients (n=48) had LVF during the six-month follow-up, highlighting the therapeutic significance of prompt management in STEMI patients after PPCI. CONCLUSION Prolonged ischemia, advanced age, diabetes, hypertension, and previous cardiac events that predict severe left ventricular dysfunction are associated with a greater risk of LVF following PPCI. Timely intervention and thorough therapy are essential for enhancing results for STEMI patients at high risk.

Ticagrelor potentiates cardioprotection by remote ischemic preconditioning: the ticagrelor in remote ischemic preconditioning (TRIP) randomized clinical trial. Hellenic J Cardiol 2024:S1109-9666(24)00133-7. [PMID: 38950885 DOI: 10.1016/j.hjc.2024.06.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) reduces periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) through various pathways, including an adenosine-triggered pathway. Ticagrelor inhibits adenosine uptake, thus may potentiate the effects of RIPC. This randomized trial tested the hypothesis that ticagrelor potentiates the effect of RIPC and reduces PMI, assessed by post-procedural troponin release. METHODS Patients undergoing PCI for non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes were 1:1 randomized to ticagrelor (TG-Group) or clopidogrel (CL-Group). Within each treatment, patients were 1:1 randomized to a RIPC (RIPC-Group) or a control group (CTRL-Group). The primary endpoint was the difference between post- and pre-procedural troponin at 24 h following PCI, termed deltaTnI. RESULTS During a 12-month period, 138 patients were included in the study (34 in the CL-CTRL group, 34 in the TG-CTRL group, 35 in the CL-RIPC group, and 35 in the TG-CTRL group). There was a significant difference in deltaTnI between the study groups [ TG-RIPC:0.04 (0-0.16), CL-CTRL:0.10 (0.03-0.43), CLRIPC:0.11 (0.03-0.89), and TG-CTRL:0.24 (0.06-0.47); p = 0.007]. Eight patients (22.9%) in the TG-RIPC group developed type 4a myocardial infarction (MI), compared to 14 (40%) in the CL-RIPC group, 13 (38.2%) in the CL-CTRL group, and 19 (55.9%) in the TG-CTRL group (p = 0.048). A significant interaction between antiplatelet group allocation and RIPC on deltaTnI was observed [F (1,134) = 7.509; p = 0.007]. In multivariate analysis, the interaction between RIPC and ticagrelor treatment was independently associated with a lower incidence of Type 4a MI. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate an interaction between ticagrelor and RIPC, which may potentiate the cardioprotective effects of RIPC during PCI by reducing PMI.

Association between Ranolazine, Ischemic Preconditioning, and Cardioprotection in Patients Undergoing Scheduled Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2024; 60:166. [PMID: 38256425 PMCID: PMC10820875 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60010166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has demonstrated efficacy in protecting against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury when applied before percutaneous coronary revascularization. Ranolazine, an anti-ischemic drug, has been utilized to minimize ischemic events in chronic angina patients. However, there is a lack of trials exploring the combined effects of ranolazine pretreatment and RIPC in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs). Materials and Methods: The present study is a prospective study which enrolled 150 patients scheduled for nonemergent percutaneous coronary revascularization. Three groups were formed: a control group undergoing only PCIs, an RIPC group with RIPC applied to either upper limb before the PCI (preconditioning group), and a group with RIPC before the PCI along with prior ranolazine treatment for stable angina (ranolazine group). Statistical analyses, including ANOVAs and Kruskal-Wallis tests, were conducted, with the Bonferroni correction for type I errors. A repeated-measures ANOVA assessed the changes in serum enzyme levels (SGOT, LDH, CRP, CPK, CK-MB, troponin I) over the follow-up. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. Results: The ranolazine group showed (A) significantly lower troponin I level increases compared to the control group for up to 24 h, (B) significantly lower CPK levels after 4, 10, and 24 h compared to the preconditioning group (p = 0.020, p = 0.020, and p = 0.019, respectively) and significantly lower CPK levels compared to the control group after 10 h (p = 0.050), and (C) significantly lower CK-MB levels after 10 h compared to the control group (p = 0.050). Conclusions: This study suggests that combining RIPC before scheduled coronary procedures with ranolazine pretreatment may be linked to reduced ischemia induction, as evidenced by lower myocardial enzyme levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, there has been growing interest in exploring the relationship between activities of daily living (ADL) and cardiovascular diseases. This retrospective cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the association of ADL measured by Barthel index (BI) with periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) and injury following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS Enrolled patients were stratified into impaired and unimpaired ADL groups according to their BI scores. Logistic regressions were conducted to explore the association of ADL on admission with periprocedural myocardial injury and infarction. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) curve and subgroup analysis were also performed. RESULTS Totally, 16.4% of patients suffered from PMI; the mean age was 65.8 ± 10.4 years old. RCS analysis showed that the morbidity of periprocedural myocardial infarction and injury showed a downward tendency with increasing BI scores. Multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that impaired ADL was an independent risk factor for periprocedural myocardial infarction (OR = 1.190, 95% CI [1.041, 1.360], P = 0.011) and injury (OR = 1.131, 95% CI [1.017, 1.257], P = 0.023). Subgroup analysis showed that the association between ADL and PMI was founded in several subgroups, while the association between ADL and periprocedural myocardial injury was founded only in BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2 subgroup. CONCLUSION Impaired ADL at hospital admission was an independent risk factor for periprocedural myocardial infarction and injury among patients following PCI.

Abstract
Background Periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) is a common complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) associated with poor prognosis. Inflammation has been demonstrated to exert a crucial role in PMI. However, how the inflammation is initiated or sustained in PMI remains elusive. Methods RNA-seq in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from 3 Non-PMI and 6 PMI patients was performed with subsequent bioinformatics analysis. RNA-seq results were verified in a patient cohort. We also established the coronary microembolization (CME) mice model to mimic PMI. The activity of caspase-1 in PBMCs was detected by flow cytometry. The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18 and cardiac troponin in plasma were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results We identified a total of 901 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between Non-PMI and PMI patients. These DEGs participated in several inflammation-related processes. NOD-like receptor signaling pathway was significantly enriched in pathway analysis. All the key genes composed in the NLRP3 inflammasome, including NLRP3, PYCARD, CASP1 and IL1B, were upregulated in PMI patients. The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome was then verified by increased activity of caspase-1 in PBMCs, and elevated levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in plasma in PMI patients. Spearman analysis confirmed tight correlations between caspase-1 activity, IL-1β, IL-18 levels and troponin T level. In addition, caspase-1 activity, IL-1β and IL-18 levels were also enhanced in CME mice. Conclusions We discovered that NLRP3 inflammasome was involved in PMI, thus providing evidence supporting the therapeutic value of NLRP3 inflammasome-targeted strategies in PMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) is a serious cardiovascular disease with a poor prognosis. Macrophages are the predominant immune cells in patients with MI and macrophage regulation during the different phases of MI has important consequences for cardiac recovery. Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) plays a critical role in MI by modulating the number of cardiomyocytes and macrophages. METHODS MI mice were generated by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery. Macrophages were exposed to hypoxia to establish a hypoxia model and M1 polarization was induced by LPS and IFN-γ. Different groups of macrophages and MI mice were treated with ALA. The cardiomyocytes were treated with various macrophage supernatants and the cardiac function, cytokine levels, and pathology were also analyzed. Factors related to apoptosis, autophagy, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were assessed. Finally, the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway was identified. RESULTS ALA promoted M2b polarization in normal cells and suppressed inflammatory cytokines during hypoxia. ALA inhibited ROS and MMP production in vitro. Supernatants containing ALA inhibited apoptosis and autophagy in hypoxic cardiomyocytes. Moreover, ALA suppressed the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway in macrophages, which may be a potential mechanism for attenuating MI. CONCLUSION ALA alleviates MI and induces M2b polarization via the HMGB1/NF-κB pathway, impeding inflammation, oxidation, apoptosis, and autophagy, and might be a potential strategy for MI treatment.

Abstract
Procedural myocardial injury (PMI), which is the most common complication of elective percutaneous coronary intervention (ePCI), is associated with future adverse cardiac events. In this randomized pilot trial, we assessed the effects of prolonged use of the anti-coagulant bivalirudin on PMI after ePCI. Patients undergoing ePCI were randomized into the following two groups: the bivalirudin use during operation group (BUDO, 0.75 mg/kg bolus plus 1.75 mg/kg/h) and the bivalirudin use during and after operation for 4 h (BUDAO, 0.75 mg/kg bolus plus 1.75 mg/kg/h). Blood samples were collected before and 24 h after ePCI (per 8 h). The primary outcome, PMI, was defined as an increase in post-ePCI cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels of > 1 × 99th% upper reference limit (URL) when the pre-PCI cTnI was normal or a rise in cTnI of > 20% of the baseline value when it was above the 99th percentile URL, but it was stable or falling. Major PMI (MPMI) was defined as a post-ePCI cTnI increase of > 5 × 99th% URL. A total of 330 patients were included (n = 165 per group). The incidences of PMI and MPMI were not significantly higher in the BUDO group than in the BUDAO group (PMI: 115 [69.70%] vs. 102 [61.82%], P = 0.164; MPMI: 81 [49.09%] vs. 70 [42.42%], P = 0.269). However, the absolute change in cTnI levels (calculated as the peak value 24 h post-PCI minus the pre-PCI value) was notably larger in the BUDO group (0.13 [0.03, 1.95]) than in the BUDAO group (0.07 [0.01, 0.61]) (P = 0.045). Moreover, the incidence of bleeding events was similar between the two groups (BUDO: 0 [0.00%]; BUDAO: 2 [1.21%], P = 0.498). Prolonged infusion of bivalirudin for 4 h after ePCI reduces PMI severity without increasing the risk of bleeding.ClinicalTrials.gov.Number: NCT04120961, 09/10/2019.

Abstract
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in addition to guideline-directed medical therapy reduces the risk of spontaneous myocardial infarction (MI), urgent revascularization, and improves angina status; however, PCI is associated with an increased risk of periprocedural myocardial injury and MI. Numerous studies have investigated the mechanisms, predictors, and therapeutic strategies for periprocedural MI. Various definitions of periprocedural MI have been proposed by academic groups and professional societies requiring different cardiac biomarker thresholds and ancillary criteria for myocardial ischemia. The frequency and clinical significance of periprocedural MI substantially varies according to the definitions applied. In daily practice, accurate diagnosis of clinically-relevant periprocedural MI is essential because it may have a substantial impact on subsequent patient management. In the clinical trial setting, only clinically relevant periprocedural MI definitions should be applied as a clinical endpoint in order to avoid obscuring meaningful outcomes. In this review, we aim to summarize the mechanisms, predictors, frequency, and prognostic impact of periprocedural MI in patients undergoing PCI and to provide the current perspective on this issue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) is one of the mortality-related complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and significantly affects short- and long-term adverse outcomes and immediate cardiovascular events. Our present study aimed to evaluate the association of preprocedural serum laboratory parameters and PMI in patients who received primary PCI and attempted to provide detailed data on the predictors of PCI-related PMI. METHODS A total of 1184 consecutive coronary artery disease (CAD) patients who received primary and elective PCI between July 2015 and June 2017 were included and divided into control group and PMI group. The data of serum laboratory parameters were collected from the electronic database of Meizhou People's Hospital. RESULTS The results indicated that preprocedural fasting blood glucose were higher in PMI group compared with the control group (p < .001). Patients with prior hyperlipidemia were more likely to have experienced PCI-related PMI (p = .018) and the preprocedural level of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-HDL-C, apolipoprotein B (Apo B), and LDL-C/high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were significantly enhanced in PMI group (p < .001). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that preprocedural fasting blood glucose > 6.11 mmol/L (p < .001, OR = 1.949, 95% CI: 1.444-2.630) and LDL-C levels ≥130 mg/dL (p = .005, OR = 1.941, 95% CI: 1.217-3.098) independently predicted PCI-related PMI. CONCLUSION Our results indicated preprocedural fasting blood glucose >6.11 mmol/L and LDL-C levels ≥130 mg/dL may be useful predictors for PCI-related PMI. The study may provide a detailed data on the predictors of PCI-related PMI.

Relationship between coronary high-intensity plaques on T1-weighted imaging by cardiovascular magnetic resonance and vulnerable plaque features by near-infrared spectroscopy and intravascular ultrasound: a prospective cohort study. J Cardiovasc Magn Reson 2023; 25:4.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare the coronary plaque characterization by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) (NIRS-IVUS), and to determine whether pre-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) evaluation using CMR identifies high-intensity plaques (HIPs) at risk of peri-procedural myocardial infarction (pMI). Although there is little evidence in comparison with NIRS-IVUS findings, which have recently been shown to identify vulnerable plaques, we inferred that CMR-derived HIPs would be associated with vulnerable plaque features identified on NIRS-IVUS. METHODS 52 patients with stable coronary artery disease who underwent CMR with non-contrast T1-weighted imaging and PCI using NIRS-IVUS were studied. HIP was defined as a signal intensity of the coronary plaque-to-myocardial signal intensity ratio (PMR) ≥ 1.4, which was measured from the data of CMR images. We evaluated whether HIPs were associated with the NIRS-derived maximum 4-mm lipid-core burden index (maxLCBI4mm) and plaque morphology on IVUS, and assessed the incidence and predictor of pMI defined by the current Universal Definition using high-sensitive cardiac troponin-T. RESULTS Of 62 lesions, HIPs were observed in 30 lesions (48%). The HIP group had a significantly higher remodeling index, plaque burden, and proportion of echo-lucent plaque and maxLCBI4mm ≥ 400 (known as large lipid-rich plaque [LRP]) than the non-HIP group. The correlation between the maxLCBI4mm and PMR was significantly positive (r = 0.51). In multivariable logistic regression analysis for prediction of HIP, NIRS-derived large LRP (odds ratio [OR] = 5.41; 95% confidence intervals [CIs] 1.65-17.8, p = 0.005) and IVUS-derived echo-lucent plaque (OR = 5.12; 95% CIs 1.11-23.6, p = 0.036) were strong independent predictors. Furthermore, pMI occurred in 14 of 30 lesions (47%) with HIP, compared to only 5 of 32 lesions (16%) without HIP (p = 0.005). In multivariable logistic regression analysis for prediction of incidence of pMI, CMR-derived HIP (OR = 5.68; 95% CIs 1.53-21.1, p = 0.009) was a strong independent predictor, but not NIRS-derived large LRP and IVUS-derived echo-lucent plaque. CONCLUSIONS There is an important relationship between CMR-derived HIP and NIRS-derived large LRP. We also confirmed that non-contrast T1-weighted CMR imaging is useful for characterization of vulnerable plaque features as well as for pre-PCI risk stratification. Trial registration The ethics committee of Juntendo Clinical Research and Trial Center approved this study on January 26, 2021 (Reference Number 20-313).

[PMID: 36309671 PMCID: PMC9618173 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-022-02887-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the incidence predictors and prognosis of PMI in chronic total occlusion (CTO) undergoing PCI remains unclear. Method To evaluate the predictors and prognostic impact of PMI following PCI in patients with CTO. We consecutively enrolled 132 individuals and 8 of whom with procedural failure were excluded in this study. Thus, a total of 124 CTO patients successfully received PCI were included in this study. And patients were divided into the PMI group (n = 42) and the non-PMI group (n = 82) according to their c-TnI levels measured after procedure. The baseline and angiographic characteristics of the two groups were compared. The predictors of PMI and the correlation between PMI and MACE were investigated. Results Overall, PMI occurred in 42 patients (33.9%). Comparing with control group, PMI group had more diabetes (54.8% vs. 31.7%,P = 0.013) and dyslipidemia (54.8% vs. 13.4%, P<0.001). Also, there were significant differences between the two groups in left ventricular ejection fraction(43.2 ± 7.2 vs 47.2 ± 8.0, P = 0.027), prior myocardial infarction(54.8%vs43.1%, P = 0.020), prior PCI(57.1% vs 22.0%, P<0.001) and prior CABG(14.3% vs 2.4%, P = 0.011). Also, patients with PMI had more calcified lesions (52.4% vs 24.4%, P = 0.002) and were more likely to have multivessel disease (71.4% vs 35.4%, P<0.001). In addition, patients in the PMI group had higher J-CTO scores (3.3 ± 1.0 vs 1.9 ± 0.5, P<0.001) and were more likely to have wire-crossing difficulties (64.3% vs 37.8%, P = 0.005), require more use of retrograde approach (38.1% vs 7.3%, P<0.001) and have more procedural complications (19.0% vs 2.4%, P = 0.003). In the multivariate analysis, multivessel artery disease (odd ratio [OR], 4.347;95% confidence interval [CI], 1.601– 11.809;P = 0.004), retrograde approach (OR, 4.036; 95%CI, 1.162– 14.020;P = 0.028) and the presence of procedural complications (OR, 16.480;95%CI, 2.515-107.987;P = 0.003) were predictors of PMI. Conclusion The incidence of PMI in CTO patients after PCI was 33.9%. Multivessel artery disease, retrograde approach, and the presence of procedural complications were predictors of PMI after CTO-PCI. Patients who develop PMI tend to have a poorer clinical prognosis and more MACE than those who do not develop PMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the potential predictors and clinical significance of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI), as defined by the latest Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction (2018), following rotational atherectomy (RA). BACKGROUND PMI is not uncommon in patients undergoing RA, although the predictors and prognostic impact are unknown. METHODS Data from 229 consecutive patients who had undergone RA before drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation in a single center were analyzed. Patients' demographic information, clinical, angiographic, and procedural characteristics, and 1-year follow-up outcomes were collected retrospectively. RESULTS The overall incidence of PMI in patients undergoing RA was 48.5%. Age (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 1.024, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.001-1.047, p = 0.043) and ejection fraction (adjusted OR: 0.977, 95% CI: 0.962-0.993, p = 0.004) were independent predictors of PMI in RA, although PMI was not associated with an increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) at the 1-year follow-up in patients undergoing RA. CONCLUSION Age and ejection fraction were independently associated with an elevated risk of PMI in patients undergoing RA. However, post-RA microinfarcts were not associated with an increased risk of MACCEs over the short-term follow-up period.

Abstract
Mechanical stress from haemodynamic perturbations or interventional manipulation of epicardial coronary atherosclerotic plaques with inflammatory destabilization can release particulate debris, thrombotic material and soluble substances into the coronary circulation. The physical material obstructs the coronary microcirculation, whereas the soluble substances induce endothelial dysfunction and facilitate vasoconstriction. Coronary microvascular obstruction and dysfunction result in patchy microinfarcts accompanied by an inflammatory reaction, both of which contribute to progressive myocardial contractile dysfunction. In clinical studies, the benefit of protection devices to retrieve atherothrombotic debris during percutaneous coronary interventions has been modest, and the treatment of microembolization has mostly relied on antiplatelet and vasodilator agents. The past 25 years have witnessed a relative proportional increase in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction in the presentation of acute coronary syndromes. An associated increase in the incidence of plaque erosion rather than rupture has also been recognized as a key mechanism in the past decade. We propose that coronary microembolization is a decisive link between plaque erosion at the culprit lesion and the manifestation of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. In this Review, we characterize the features and mechanisms of coronary microembolization and discuss the clinical trials of drugs and devices for prevention and treatment.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to investigate the prognostic implications of increased post-procedural cardiac troponin levels in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to define the threshold of prognostically relevant periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI). METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 3249 patients with normal baseline troponin levels referred for elective PCI were enrolled and followed up for a median period of 20 months. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) comprising all-cause death, myocardial injury (MI), and ischaemic stroke. Post-PCI high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) >99% upper reference limit (URL) occurred in 78.3% of the patients and did not increase the risk of MACEs [adjusted hazard ratio (adHR) 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.58-1.74, P = 0.990], nor did 'major PMI', defined as post-PCI hs-cTnT >5× URL (adHR 1.30, 95% CI 0.76-2.23, P = 0.340). Post-PCI troponin >8× URL, with an incidence of 15.2%, started to show an association with a higher risk of MACEs (adHR 1.89, 95% CI 1.06-3.37, P = 0.032), mainly driven by myocardial infarction (adHR 2.38, 95% CI 1.05-5.38, P = 0.037) and ischaemic stroke (adHR 3.35, 95% CI 1.17-9.64, P = 0.025). CONCLUSION In patients with normal baseline troponin values undergoing elective PCI, PMI defined as hs-cTnT >8× URL after PCI was more appropriate for identifying patients with an increased risk of MACEs, which may help guide clinical practice in this population.

Abstract
A substantial number of chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) experience periprocedural myocardial injury or infarction. Accurate diagnosis of these PCI-related complications is required to guide further management given that their occurrence may be associated with increased risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). Due to lack of scientific data, the cut-off thresholds of post-PCI cardiac troponin (cTn) elevation used for defining periprocedural myocardial injury and infarction, have been selected based on expert consensus opinions, and their prognostic relevance remains unclear. In this Consensus Document from the ESC Working Group on Cellular Biology of the Heart and European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI), we recommend, whenever possible, the measurement of baseline (pre-PCI) cTn and post-PCI cTn values in all CCS patients undergoing PCI. We confirm the prognostic relevance of the post-PCI cTn elevation >5× 99th percentile URL threshold used to define type 4a myocardial infarction (MI). In the absence of periprocedural angiographic flow-limiting complications or electrocardiogram (ECG) and imaging evidence of new myocardial ischaemia, we propose the same post-PCI cTn cut-off threshold (>5× 99th percentile URL) be used to define prognostically relevant ‘major’ periprocedural myocardial injury. As both type 4a MI and major periprocedural myocardial injury are strong independent predictors of all-cause mortality at 1 year post-PCI, they may be used as quality metrics and surrogate endpoints for clinical trials. Further research is needed to evaluate treatment strategies for reducing the risk of major periprocedural myocardial injury, type 4a MI, and MACE in CCS patients undergoing PCI.

Peripheral Artery Tonometry Reveals Impaired Endothelial Function before Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with Periprocedural Myocardial Injury. J Interv Cardiol 2021; 2021:5598120. [PMID: 34354549 PMCID: PMC8298173 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5598120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2021] [Accepted: 07/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) is a most common complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Microembolization and inflammation underlying PMI could lead to coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) and vice versa. Reactive hyperemia index (RHI) assessed by peripheral artery tonometry (PAT) has been considered as a noninvasive method to assess endothelial function and CMD, which could be useful to predict PMI. Methods 268 patients suspected with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and scheduled for elective coronary angiography were enrolled. RHI was measured by using the Endo-PAT2000™ device before angiography. The association among RHI, PMI, and cardiovascular events was further assessed. Results In this cohort, 189 patients (70.5%) were diagnosed with CAD and 119 patients (44.4%) underwent drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. Compared with patients without CAD, CAD patients had lower RHI (1.88 ± 0.55 vs. 2.02 ± 0.58, P < 0.05). Patients with PMI had a lower RHI before angiography (1.75 ± 0.37 vs. 1.95 ± 0.50, P < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of RHI revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.61, with a sensitivity of 62.7% and specificity of 50.0% to predict PMI. Moreover, we found that CAD patients with RHI ≤ 1.81 had a higher incidence of composite cardiac events after stenting (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 3.31, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.07–10.22, P < 0.05). Conclusions RHI assessment through PAT could be a promising method to predict PMI before the procedure. RHI is associated with increased risk of long-term adverse cardiac events after DES implantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of nicorandil and alprostadil on myocardial protection in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS In this prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled study, 90 consecutive patients scheduled for elective PCI for de novo coronary lesions were assigned to the nicorandil, alprostadil, and nitroglycerin groups in a 1:1:1 ratio. Drugs were administered intracoronary via a targeted perfusion microcatheter. The primary endpoint was the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) myocardial perfusion frame count (TMPFC). Additionally, the corrected TIMI frame count (cTFC), TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG), and incidence of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) were assessed. RESULTS Both nicorandil and alprostadil were significantly effective in reducing TMPFC (114.6 ± 33.7 vs 93.4 ± 30.9, P = .016; 114.3 ± 34.3 vs 94.7 ± 33.3, P = .029, respectively). Similar findings were observed in the improvement of cTFC (20.3 ± 10.5 vs 13.5 ± 5.0, P = .003; 20.2 ± 7.4 vs 15.2 ± 5.2, P = .003, respectively) and percentage of TMPG 3 (100% vs 82.8%, P = .052; 83.3% vs 96.7%, P = .196, respectively); whereas, nitroglycerin produced a limited effect on TMPFC (114.4 ± 30.9 vs 112.1 ± 31.9, P = .739), cTFC (19.4 ± 7.2 vs 19.3 ± 7.2, P = .936), and percentage of TMPG 3 (86.7% vs 86.7%, P = 1.000). No significant difference was found in the incidence of PMI (16.7% vs 16.0% vs 27.6%, P = .537), though it was comparatively lower in the nicorandil and alprostadil groups. Furthermore, the intracoronary administration of nicorandil and alprostadil had a mild effect on blood pressure and heart rate. CONCLUSIONS The intracoronary administration of nicorandil and alprostadil via a targeted perfusion microcatheter was more effective in improving myocardial perfusion in patients undergoing elective PCI than nitroglycerin.

Abstract
The clinical "significance" of percutaneous coronary intervention for coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO-PCI) has been evaluated. In the beginning, the effects on clinical endpoints were investigated by comparisons between cases of success and failure of CTO-PCI, which mostly demonstrated better long-term outcomes in the successful cases. Similarly, improvement of cardiac function or wall motion was proven by serial observational studies. Accordingly, several prospective randomized trials (RCTs), which should confirm such accumulated potential benefits, were recently conducted by comparison with studies of patients that had received optical medical therapy (OMT) alone. While they mostly demonstrated significant improvement of angina symptoms and quality of life (QOL) in the CTO-PCI group, they failed to prove a reduction of clinical events or improvement of left ventricle wall motion, compared with OMT. Concurrent guidelines or consensus documents emphasize that the principal indication for CTO-PCI is to improve symptoms. To determine strategy, the following must be discussed in each individual case: the probability of procedural success, the expectation of long-term patency, and an assessment of the balance between procedure-related complications and overall benefits. In essence, we believe the following facts to be the current sincere appraisal of CTO-PCI: (1) improvements of symptoms and QOL are established, but the others remain inconclusive, and; (2) their margins for improvement are narrowing and numbers of candidates are shrinking. Precision medicine or individualization may be the right directions to take, to enhance the potential of this treatment. This course of action demands discrimination of those candidates who will truly receive benefits from invasive treatment, and that still requires further clinical studies or actions.

Abstract
We systematically searched the literature to assess the efficacy of trimetazidine in reducing periprocedural myocardial injury and improving postoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). An electronic search was conducted based on the PubMed, Ovid, Scopus, Springer, CENTRAL, and Google Scholar databases; 14 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included. Our meta-analysis showed a significant reduction in cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels with trimetazidine compared with controls (P < .00001) but not in serum creatine kinase-myocardial band levels (P = .49). There were significantly reduced odds of ischemic ST-T segment changes with trimetazidine (P = .0.03) but lack of significant difference in the incidence of anginal attacks between the 2 groups (P = .10). Results also suggest significantly higher LVEF with trimetazidine compared with controls (P < .00001). Meta-regression analysis indicated no influence of duration of trimetazidine therapy on cTnI levels. The administration of preprocedure trimetazidine may have a role in reducing periprocedural myocardial injury in patients with CAD undergoing PCI. Evidence also suggests that postoperative trimetazidine may improve LVEF in the short term. Lack of high-quality trials and the heterogeneity of studies limit the ability of our analysis to draw strong conclusions. Further well-designed RCTs are required to supplement current evidence.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nicorandil for periprocedural myocardial injury in patients undergoing PCI through meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Methods We analyzed the clinical data of patients including the incidence of periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) from selected articles. RCTs were retrieved from medical literature databases. RR and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated to compare the endpoints. Results In total, 15 articles (16 trial comparisons) were retrieved which contained 2221 patients. In general, 1130 patients (50.9%) were randomized to the experimental group, whereas 1091 patients (49.1%) were randomized to the control group. The result showed that nicorandil significantly reduced the incidence of PMI and MACE after PCI compared to the control group. Conclusions Overall, early use of nicorandil in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was associated with a significant reduction of PMI and MACE.

Abstract
Periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) has been generally associated with major adverse cardiac events (MACE), however, limited studies addressed its clinical implications following chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). To evaluate the determinants and prognostic implication of PMI following CTO-PCI. Retrospective single-centre study of 125 consecutive patients undergoing CTO-PCI was attempted between December 2013 and December 2017. Angiographic success was achieved in 115 patients (92.0%) and cTn-I values were obtained 12-24 h following PCI. PMI was defined as an elevation of cTn-I above 5 times the 99th-percentile upper reference limit. Baseline demographic, clinical, angiographic and procedural characteristics were compared. Multivariate analysis was performed to determine the predictors of PMI and the correlates of PMI and 1-year MACE, a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization. Overall, mean age was 67 ± 17 years; 25 patients (21.7%) were female; and PMI occurred in 41 patients (35.7%). Multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) (odds ratio [OR], 3.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.09-10.67; p = 0.04) and procedural complications (a composite of iatrogenic coronary artery dissection/haematoma or perforation) (OR, 19.08; 95% CI, 3.77-96.65; p < 0.01) predicted PMI. Significant collateralization (Rentrop 3) (hazard ratio, [HR], 0.19; 95% CI, 0.06-0.64; p < 0.01) and procedural complications (HR, 8.86; 95% CI, 2.66-29.46; p < 0.01) were independently associated with 1-year MACE, while PMI was not (p = 0.26). In this contemporary cohort, PMI following successful CTO-PCI was a common finding and was predicted by MVD and procedural complications. PMI was not independently associated with 1-year MACE.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate whether red cell distribution width (RDW) was associated with periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Among 1723 consecutive patients undergoing elective PCI, a total of 230 (13.3%) met the diagnostic criteria of PMI. The high RDW (≥ 12.6%) group tended to have PMI (15.4% vs. 11.2%, P = 0.010). RDW was an independent predictor of PMI whether as a categorical variable (adjusted odds ratio = 1.442, 95% confidence interval = 1.088 to 1.911, P = 0.011) or a continuous variable (adjusted odds ratio = 1.236, 95% confidence interval = 1.079 to 1.415, P = 0.002). High RDW was also significantly associated with increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during follow-up. However, anemia was not independently associated with PMI or MACE in the current study. In conclusion, RDW showed strong and independent association with PMI in patients undergoing elective PCI.

The clinical effect of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide on asymptomatic peri-procedural myocardial injury after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty. Sci Rep 2020; 10:15902. [PMID: 32985551 PMCID: PMC7522987 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-72710-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2020] [Accepted: 09/04/2020] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
To determine the effect of intravenous injection of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) on lowering the incidence of asymptomatic peri-procedural myocardial injury (PMI) in patients who underwent coronary stent implantation. In this retrospective observational study, data pooled from a tertiary hospital electronic medical records were used to quantify the troponin enzyme change after patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) were pretreated with rhBNP infusion one day prior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The primary end point was to analyze the incidence of the elevated high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I serum levels above the upper normal limit after PCI. A total of 156 CAD patients were enrolled into rhBNP group (n = 76) and control group (n = 80). The incidence of asymptomatic PMI was 33% in the rhBNP group versus 51% in the control group (P = 0.02) after PCI. At eight months, the incidences of composite endpoints were 25.3% in the control group and 13% in the rhBNP group (difference, 12.3 percentage points; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.197 to 1.048; P = 0.061). There were 7 visits in the rhBNP group and 15 visits in the control group for recurrent angina (difference, 10 percentage points; 95% CI 0.168-1.147; P = 0.087). A time-to-event analysis of the composite clinical endpoints and the recurrent angina between the control group and rhBNP group showed that the hazard ratios were 2.566 (95% CI 1.187-5.551; P = 0.017) and 2.607 (95% CI 1.089-6.244; P = 0.032) respectively. The decreased incidence of asymptomatic PMI after PCI and the reduced episodes of recurrent angina at eight months follow-up were associated with the administration of rhBNP infusion prior to PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) frequently follows successful PCI for STEMI and is recognized by multiple modalities. Multilayer speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) has the potential of detecting myocardial dysfunction in different myocardial layers. Our objective was to describe the changes in layer-specific myocardial function over the 24 hours after successful PCI for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS Patients (n = 120) with STEMI and no prior myocardial infarction underwent echocardiography prior to PCI, immediately after and at 3- and 24-hours post-PCI. Worsening focal dysfunction (WFD) was defined as an immediate reduction, compared to the pre-PCI value, in the amplitude of endo-myocardial longitudinal strain (endo-MLS) within the infarction territory. RESULTS Patients with WFD (52%) had further reductions in endo-MLS, mid-MLS, and epi-MLS in the infarction region immediately post-PCI; at 3 hours strain began to improve and continued to improve at 24 hours. Reductions of endo-MLS strain were more evident than those of global, mid-MLS, and epi-MLS. This same pattern was seen in each of the ischemic territories of the anterior descending, circumflex, and right coronary arteries. Immediate improvement in endo-MLS following PCI was seen in 48% of patients. The time from symptom onset to balloon time was markedly longer in those with WFD (P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS Multilayer SPE is a sensitive method that identifies serial alterations in focal myocardial function following successful PCI for STEMI. Layer-specific reductions in endo-MLS appeared more evident than decreases in global LV strain. Prolonged total ischemic time prior to PCI was directly related to the incidence of WFD.

Abstract
Translation of the cardioprotective effect by pharmacological and mechanical conditioning therapies into improvement of clinical outcome for the patients has been disappointing. Confounding factors like comorbidity and comedications may explain some of the loss in translation. However, the substantial improvement of outcome in disease states involving ischemia-reperfusion injury, that is, planned cardiac surgery, elective percutaneous coronary intervention, and even primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-segment myocardial infarction (STEMI), is the most plausible explanation for the missed demonstration of a clinical benefit. Remote ischemic conditioning has demonstrated consistent cardioprotective effect in experimental and in clinical proof-of-concept studies. As an adjunctive cardioprotective treatment beyond reperfusion, remote ischemic conditioning should address target populations at risk of extensive tissue damage, including patients who experience complications, which may induce profound myocardial ischemia in relation to cardiac surgery or elective percutaneous coronary intervention. Moreover, patients with STEMI and predictable impaired clinical outcome due to delayed hospital admission, high Killip class, cardiogenic shock, and cardiac arrest remain target groups. For high-risk patients, daily remote ischemic conditioning or the corollary of blood flow-restricted exercise may be alternative cardioprotective options during postoperative and post-myocardial infarct rehabilitation.

Abstract
AIMS Significant platelet activation after long stented coronary segments has been associated with periprocedural microvascular impairment and myonecrosis. In long lesions treated either with an everolimus-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) or an everolimus-eluting stent (EES), we aimed to investigate (a) procedure-related microvascular impairment, and (b) the relationship of platelet activation with microvascular function and related myonecrosis. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients (n=66) undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in long lesions were randomised 1:1 to either BVS or EES. The primary endpoint was the difference between groups in changes of pressure-derived corrected index of microvascular resistance (cIMR) after PCI. Periprocedural myonecrosis was assessed by high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), platelet reactivity by high-sensitivity adenosine diphosphate (hs-ADP)-induced platelet reactivity with the Multiplate Analyzer. Post-dilatation was more frequent in the BVS group, with consequent longer procedure time. A significant difference was observed between the two groups in the primary endpoint of ΔcIMR (p=0.04). hs-ADP was not different between the groups at different time points. hs-cTnT significantly increased after PCI, without difference between the groups. CONCLUSIONS In long lesions, BVS implantation is associated with significant acute reduction in IMR as compared with EES, with no significant interaction with platelet reactivity or periprocedural myonecrosis.

Relationship of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2) and periprocedural myocardial injury in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the dominant methods for revascularization in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). However, periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) is a frequent complication following PCI and is known to be a predictor of postprocedural cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although several studies try to identify serum markers to predict the PMI, there is a little information about the role of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) as a predictor of PMI. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the relationship of Lp-PLA2 levels and PMI in patients undergoing elective PCI. METHODS This study included 265 consecutive patients with normal preprocedural cardiac troponin T(cTNT) who received elective PCI. The samples for cTNT were collected at 8, 16, and 24 h after PCI to assess perioperative myocardial injury. The Lp-PLA2 and other serum lipid parameters were measured after 12 fasting hours before PCI. RESULTS The data suggested that the patients with preprocedural high Lp-PLA2 were strongly and independently correlated with the risk of PMI. Pearson correlation analysis showed that preprocedural Lp-PLA2 was significantly positively correlated with postprocedural cTnT elevation (r = 0.694, p < 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of PMI, we found that Lp-PLA2 was independent risk factor for postprocedural cTnT elevation. The area under Receiver Operating Characteristic curve of Lp-PLA2 was 0.757 (95%CI 0.692 ~ 0.821, p < 0.001), the best cut-off point was 185 ng/ml, sensitivity and specificity were 65.33% and 76.32%. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that preprocedural Lp-PLA2 was associated with postprocedural cTnT elevation and was the independent risk factor of PMI.

Abstract
The clinical outcomes of nicorandil in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are conflicting. We sought to evaluate the effects of nicorandil on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) in elective PCI. Eligible studies that reported the effect of nicorandil on PMI in elective PCI were obtained from PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library (up to October 28, 2019). The outcomes were PMI and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). Ten randomized controlled trials with 1304 patients undergoing elective PCI were evaluated. Nicorandil significantly reduced the incidence of PMI (odds ratio [OR] = 0.48; P = .0003); however, there was no significant difference in MACCEs (OR = 0.80; P = .45) between the 2 groups. Subgroup analyses showed that nicorandil significantly lowered the PMI risk when only patients with stable coronary artery disease (OR = 0.41; P = .0008) were considered and when nicorandil was administered intravenously (OR = 0.41; P = .0007) or orally (OR = 0.33; P = .0001). This meta-analysis suggests that nicorandil could reduce the incidence of PMI without increasing the occurrence of MACCEs in elective PCI. The effect of nicorandil in lowering the PMI risk is associated with the diagnosis of the patients and the route of nicorandil administration.

Abstract
Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) is a proangiogenic factor that mediates inflammation and atherosclerosis. We evaluated the predictive value of circulating Ang-2 levels for periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) in 145 patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and investigated whether post-PCI Ang-2 levels are influenced by PMI. PMI was defined as a post-procedural troponin elevation above the 5×99th percentile upper reference limit. Blood samples for Ang-2 analysis were collected at admission and on postoperative days 1 and 3. PMI occurred in 40 patients (28%). At baseline, there was no difference in Ang-2 levels between PMI and non-PMI patients (P=0.554). However, a significant interaction effect between PMI occurrence and time on Ang-2 levels was observed (interaction P=0.036). Although serum Ang-2 levels in non-PMI patients gradually decreased, Ang-2 levels in PMI patients did not change between different time-points. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that age, total stent length, and serum levels of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide were independent PMI predictors. These findings indicate that pre-procedural Ang-2 levels do not impact PMI occurrence after elective PCI. However, changes in Ang-2 levels after the procedure are closely related to PMI.

Abstract
Objective To determine the prevalence of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) related myocardial damage (injury or myocardial infarction), investigate several cardiac biomarkers, explore possible risk factors and assess survival in patients undergoing elective PCI. Methods Patients >18 years of age who had undergone an elective PCI at Huashan hospital in Shanghai, China from October 2016 to June 2017 and had baseline and post-PCI results available for four cardiac biomarkers (cTnT, CK-MB mass, hs-CRP and NT-ProBNP) were eligible. Patients were separated into two groups according to whether or not they had PCI related myocardial damage. Results Of the 143 patients who were eligible for the study, 75 (52%) were classified as ‘controls,’ and 68 (48%) had PCI related myocardial damage. Of the 68 patients, 64 (45%) had PCI related myocardial injury and 4 (3%) had PCI related myocardial infarction. Elderly Chinese patients, with high systolic blood pressure on admission and who required multiple coronary segments for PCI had a high risk of myocardial damage. Relative cTnT or relative CK-MB mass may be useful cardiac biomarkers for monitoring PCI related myocardial damage, especially at 24h post-PCI. There was no significant difference in survival rates between controls and those with myocardial complications. Conclusions PCI related myocardial damage is common but appears to have no impact on prognosis. Senior age, high systolic blood pressure and multiple coronary segments for PCI are risk factors.

[PMID: 30203006 PMCID: PMC6284164 DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehy562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2018] [Accepted: 08/20/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims In the CHAMPION PHOENIX trial, the potent, rapidly acting, intravenous platelet adenosine diphosphate receptor antagonist cangrelor reduced the 48-h incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE; death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, or ischaemia-driven revascularization) compared with a loading dose of clopidogrel in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We sought to determine whether the efficacy of cangrelor during PCI varies in patients with simple vs. complex target lesion coronary anatomy. Methods and results Blinded angiographic core laboratory analysis was completed in 10 854 of 10 942 (99.2%) randomized patients in CHAMPION PHOENIX (13 418 target lesions). Outcomes were analysed according to the number of angiographic PCI target lesion high-risk features (HRF) present (bifurcation, left main, thrombus, angulated, tortuous, eccentric, calcified, long, or multi-lesion treatment). The number of patients with 0, 1, 2, and ≥3 HRFs was 1817 (16.7%), 3442 (31.7%), 2901 (26.7%), and 2694 (24.8%), respectively. The 48-h MACE rate in clopidogrel-treated patients increased progressively with lesion complexity (from 3.3% to 4.4% to 6.9% to 8.7%, respectively, P < 0.0001). Cangrelor reduced the 48-h rate of MACE by 21% {4.7% vs. 5.9%, odds ratio (OR) [95% confidence interval (95% CI)] 0.79 (0.67, 0.93), P = 0.006} compared with clopidogrel, an effect which was consistent regardless of PCI lesion complexity (Pinteraction = 0.66) and presentation with stable ischaemic heart disease (SIHD) or an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). By multivariable analysis, the number of high-risk PCI characteristics [OR (95% CI) 1.68 (1.20, 2.36), 2.78 (2.00, 3.87), and 3.23 (2.33, 4.48) for 1, 2, and 3 HRFs compared with 0 HRFs, all P < 0.0001] and treatment with cangrelor vs. clopidogrel [OR (95% CI) 0.78 (0.66, 0.92), P = 0.004] were independent predictors of the primary 48-h MACE endpoint. Major bleeding rates were unrelated to lesion complexity and were not increased by cangrelor. Conclusion Peri-procedural MACE after PCI is strongly dependent on the number of treated high-risk target lesion features. Compared with a loading dose of clopidogrel, cangrelor reduced MACE occurring within 48 h after PCI in patients with SIHD and ACS regardless of baseline lesion complexity. The absolute benefit:risk profile for cangrelor will therefore be greatest during PCI in patients with complex coronary anatomy. Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT01156571.

Effects of Trimetazidine Pretreatment on Endothelial Dysfunction and Myocardial Injury in Unstable Angina Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. Cardiol Res Pract 2019; 2019:4230948. [PMID: 31565429 PMCID: PMC6745110 DOI: 10.1155/2019/4230948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2019] [Revised: 06/17/2019] [Accepted: 06/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives Trimetazidine is an anti-ischemic medication licensed for the treatment of angina pectoris. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying its action remain incompletely elucidated. In this study, therefore, we examined the potential beneficial effects of trimetazidine on myocardial injury and endothelial dysfunction in patients with unstable angina in the perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 97 patients with unstable angina were randomly divided into trimetazidine (n = 48) and control (n = 49) groups. All subjects received standard medical therapy. The trimetazidine group additionally received 20 mg trimetazidine three times daily 24 hours before and after PCI. Serum levels of creatine kinase-muscle/brain (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (h-FABP), von Willebrand factor (vWF), and nitric oxide (NO) were measured before and the morning following PCI. Results In the control group, levels of CK-MB, cTnI, and vWF were significantly elevated (P < 0.05) and NO level was decreased after PCI (P < 0.05). By contrast, no significant changes in the levels of these proteins were observed in the trimetazidine group after PCI (P > 0.05). Moreover, h-FABP levels were not significantly altered after PCI whether in the control or in the trimetazidine group (P > 0.05). Finally, a time-dependent increase in the levels of h-FABP from 0 to 6 hours after PCI, followed by a progressive decline, was observed (P < 0.05). Conclusions PCI induces endothelial dysfunction and myocardial damage in patients with unstable angina. Trimetazidine therapy in the perioperative period can reduce this damage.

Curcumin for the prevention of myocardial injury following elective percutaneous coronary intervention; a pilot randomized clinical trial. Eur J Pharmacol 2019; 858:172471. [PMID: 31228455 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2019.172471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2018] [Revised: 06/16/2019] [Accepted: 06/18/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Due to the potential benefits of curcumin in the ischemic heart disease, this study was performed to evaluate whether pretreatment with curcumin may reduce myocardial injury following elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A randomized clinical trial was performed on 110 patients undergoing elective PCI. The intervention group (n = 55) received a single dose of 480 mg nanomicelle curcumin orally and the standard treatment before PCI, while the control group (n = 55) received only the standard treatment., Serum concentrations of CK-MB and troponin I was measured before, 8 and 24 h after the procedure to assess myocardial damage during PCI. The results showed that the raise of CK-MB in curcumin group was half of the control group (4 vs. 8 cases) but was not significant. There were no significant differences in CK-MB levels at 8 (P = .24) and 24 h (P = .37) after PCI between the curcumin and the control group. No significant difference was also found in troponin I levels at 8 (P = 1.0) and 24 h (P = .35) after PCI between the groups. This study did not support the potential cardioprotective benefit of curcumin against pre-procedural myocardial injury in patients undergoing elective PCI.

Neutrophil count as the centerpiece in the joined association networks of inflammatory and cell damage markers, and neuroendocrine stress markers in patients with stable angina pectoris following stenting. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0215209. [PMID: 30973928 PMCID: PMC6459524 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0215209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2018] [Accepted: 03/28/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective The primary aim of this study was to examine whether markers of cell damage and of the psycho-neuroendocrino-inflammatory/immune (PNI) system could be associated in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) on the next day following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Materials and methods Blood samples of 23 patients (18 men and five women, mean age 62.9 ± 10.6 years), were collected immediately before (pre-PCI), immediately after (post-PCI), and on the day following PCI (1d-PCI). Lactoferrin, LL-37 and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were assayed in plasma, in addition to cortisol and chromogranin A (CgA), as well as CK, ASAT and ALAT. Total and differential leukocyte counts were also analysed. Results At all the three time points, the monocyte fractions, the monocyte-to-lymphocyte and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratios and CgA levels were elevated. We detected significant peri-procedural changes in the plasma levels of our PNI markers: IL-6 (p<0.05), lactoferrin, LL-37 (both: p <0.0001), CgA, (p<0.05), and cortisol (p<0.01). On the first day after PCI, highly significant associations were found of ASAT with IL-6 and neutrophil count (both: r>0.75, p<0.0001), and of CgA with neutrophil count and monocyte count (both: r>0.79, p<0.0001); furthermore, cortisol was also associated with neutrophil count (r>0.7, p<0.0001). Conclusions The findings suggest that myocardial damage could correlate not only with an inflammatory reaction but, via neutrophil count, also with increased level of stress in stable CAD after PCI. Furthermore, 1d-PCI neutrophil count may serve as an easy-to-obtain integrative PNI measure in stable CAD.

Effects of high dose atorvastatin before elective percutaneous coronary intervention on highly sensitive troponin T and one year major cardiovascular events; a randomized clinical trial. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2019; 22:96-101. [PMID: 30671535 PMCID: PMC6328087 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2018.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/16/2018] [Revised: 12/11/2018] [Accepted: 12/13/2018] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Some studies have demonstrated that post-PCI elevated cardiac enzymes are associated with worse outcomes. In this study, we aimed to determine if high-dose treatment with atorvastatin before planned elective PCI reduces PMI or MACE at 1-year median follow-up. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eligible participants were randomly allocated to group A (80 mg atorvastatin 12 h and 40 mg 2 h before PCI) and group B (40 mg atorvastatin daily). Blood samples were obtained before and at 24 h after PCI to measure hsTnT. All patients were followed regarding MACE (combination of death, re-hospitalizations for ACS, and unplanned coronary revascularization) during one year after PCI. RESULTS 207 patients randomly assigned to Group A (n = 97) or group B (n = 110). The rate of PMI was lower in group A (5.2%) compared to group B (10.9%); despite near to 50% lower rate of PMI in group A, binary logistic regression showed no significant association between atorvastatin recapture and PMI. The occurrence of MACE in 97 patients of group A was 11 (11.3%), higher than 11 (10%) cases of 110 patients in group B. Cox proportional hazards regression model shows no significant difference in MACE of study groups. CONCLUSION Pretreatment of patients with stable angina who were planned to undergo an elective PCI with 120 mg of atorvastatin before the procedure confer them the same benefit in terms of PMI and MACE as 40 mg routine daily dosage of this statin does.

Abstract
Background Peri-procedural myocardial injury (PMI) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) will result in an unfavorable clinical prognosis in patients, thus urgently necessitating effective drug treatment measures. Shen-Yuan-Dan (SYD) capsules are a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) preparation that have been found to have potential myocardial protection effects during the peri-procedural phase of PCI in previous clinical and basic research; however, there is a lack of rigorous, randomized, and controlled studies. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SYD in decreasing PMI. Methods This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. A total of 284 patients with unstable angina will be randomized into test and control groups. The two groups will be given SYD or a placebo (three times each day, four capsules each time) 3 days before PCI on the basis of conventional treatment. Twelve hours before PCI, an additional 4 capsules will be given, and drug treatment is planned to be maintained for 1 month after surgery. Dynamic changes in the myocardial enzyme in four time-points (before PCI, and 4, 24, 48 hours after PCI) in both groups of patients that will be observed. The follow-up period will be 1 month. The primary observation markers are planned to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SYD in decreasing PMI. The secondary observation markers will be to evaluate the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) status at day 30 after PCI, (all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, repeated revascularization of target blood vessel) and Seattle Angina Questionnaire scores. GRACE scores will be used for risk stratification, and the intervention efficacy of SYD on PMI patients with different risks will be retrospectively evaluated. Discussion This study will provide a rigorous clinical evidence to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SYD in decreasing PMI and the results are worth anticipating. Trial registration The design of this trial has been registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (No. ChiCTR-IPR-17011069).

Role of metabolic manipulator trimetazidine in limiting percutaneous coronary intervention-induced myocardial injury. Indian Heart J 2018; 70 Suppl 3:S365-S371. [PMID: 30595291 PMCID: PMC6309873 DOI: 10.1016/j.ihj.2018.10.415] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2018] [Revised: 10/22/2018] [Accepted: 10/23/2018] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Trimetazidine (TMZ) is a metabolic modulator that shifts substrate utilization from fatty acid to carbohydrates, thereby, increasing myocardial glucose oxidation and improving myocardial ischemia. We evaluated whether TMZ is effective in reducing myocardial injury after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS Patients with stable angina undergoing elective PCI were divided into two groups, one who received oral TMZ (35 mg BD) started 7 days before PCI (n = 48) and second who did not receive any TMZ (in addition to the standard therapy (n = 52)). Troponin-I (cTnI) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) were measured before, 8, and 24 h after PCI. The primary end point was a difference in post-PCI cTnI and CK-MB levels (vs baseline). Frequency of cTnI release in the two groups, total amount of cTnI release, and difference in TIMI flow grade before and after the procedure were also assessed. RESULTS Baseline demographics in the groups were comparable. Despite similar baseline levels, post-procedural cTnI was lower at 8 h (0.13 vs 0.56 ng/ml, p = 0.03) and 24 h (0.2 vs 1.13 ng/ml, p = 0.004) in the TMZ group. Decline or no change in cTnI was significantly more common in the TMZ group (26% vs 2%, p < 0.01). Total cTnI released after PCI, as assessed by area under curve was significantly lower in the TMZ group (15.84 vs 3.32 ng h/ml, p = 0.005). Although CK-MB levels were also lower in the TMZ group, the difference was not statistically significant. Incidence of post-PCI TIMI 1 or 2 flow was significantly lesser in the TMZ group. CONCLUSIONS Oral TMZ started 7 days before PCI was effective in limiting PCI-induced myocardial injury with lower cTnI levels and higher prevalence of TIMI-3 flow.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormal blood viscosity favors atherosclerosis owing to endothelial dysfunction and changes in shear stress. Its effect on coronary microvasculature during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is still unknown. We aimed to investigate the role of hemorheological parameters in the incidence of microvascular obstruction (MVO) and the periprocedural necrosis after primary or elective PCI, and secondarily, we evaluated their prognostic significance. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 25 patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 30 patients with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and 30 patients with stable angina (SA) undergoing PCI. MVO in patients with STEMI and periprocedural necrosis in patients with NSTEMI and those with SA were assessed using angiographic/electrocardiographic and laboratory methods, respectively. Hemorheological profile included blood viscosity (η) at shear rates 200 s and 1 s, the erythrocyte aggregation index (η1/η200), and plasma viscosity. Major adverse cardiovascular events occurrence was evaluated at follow-up. RESULTS Patients with STEMI experiencing angiographic MVO (28%) had higher η200 (5.42±1.28 vs. 3.98±1.22 mPa[BULLET OPERATOR]s; P=0.015). Similarly, patients with STEMI experiencing electrocardiographic MVO (56%) had higher η200 (4.58±0.36 vs. 3.94±0.19 mPa[BULLET OPERATOR]s; P<0.001). Among patients with SA and patients with NSTEMI, those experiencing periprocedural necrosis (23.3%) had higher η200 (5.30±0.86 vs. 4.37±0.88 mPa[BULLET OPERATOR]s; P=0.001), η1 (19.52±9.62 vs. 13.29±7.65 mPa[BULLET OPERATOR]s; P=0.015) and η1/η200 values (3.64±1.50 vs. 2.72±0.92; P=0.007). These significant differences were maintained after adjustment for age, sex, and cardiovascular risk factors. At follow-up (30±6 months), 25 (29.4%) patients presented major adverse cardiovascular events, and they had higher η200 (5.18±1.00 vs. 4.25±1.01 mPa[BULLET OPERATOR]s; P<0.001). CONCLUSION In patients undergoing either urgent or elective PCI, hemorheological parameters might contribute to myocardial injury and, if furtherly confirmed, to an unfavorable outcome.

Predictive value of baseline C-reactive protein for periprocedural myocardial infraction of higher risk stratifications: A retrospective cohort clinical study. Anatol J Cardiol 2018; 20:310-317.

Abstract
Objective: It is controversial whether preprocedural elevated high sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) could increase the incidence of periprocedural myocardial infraction (PMI) of higher risk stratifications. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate whether preoperative elevated CRP level was related to the incidence of PMI in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 4.426 patients [66 y (59, 75); 72.3% males] with normal preprocedural cardiac enzymes were prospectively divided into two groups; the elevated CRP group was defined as CRP >3 mg/L, which was approximately 30.4% of the patients. The relationship between CRP and the incidence of PMI was established by multivariate logistic regression analysis, and multivariate linear regression analysis was used to assess the correlation between CRP and the severity of myocardial injury. Results: The incidence rates were similar between the two groups with periprocedural myocardial minor necrosis (34.23% versus 32.74%, p=0.607), but significantly differed based on the 2007 (defined as cardiac enzymes >3-fold elevations), 31.25% in high CRP group versus 26.25% in low group [odds ratio (OR) 1.19; p=0.046] and the 2012 universal PMI (defined as cardiac enzymes >5-fold elevations with at least one clinical evidence, such as chest pain, ECG changes or imaging diagnosis of heart ischemia), 19.79% versus 15.35% (OR 1.26, p=0.023); besides, the PMI ratios increased in line with the elevation of CRP (p=0.006 for the 2007 and p=0.011 for the 2012 universal PMI). However, no significant linear relationship was found between CRP and high sensitivity cardiac troponin I peak post-PCI. Conclusion: Elevated baseline CRP was an independent risk factor for the incidence of the 2007 and the 2012 universal PMI rather than minor necrosis. However, CRP may not correlate with the severity of minor myocardial necrosis in patients with PMI.

[PMID: 30201315 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2018.07.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2018] [Revised: 07/16/2018] [Accepted: 07/23/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High platelet reactivity before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) reportedly increases the risk of PCI-related myocardial infarction (PMI) following elective PCI. We conducted a pilot study to evaluate changes in platelet reactivity during PCI and their association with the incidence of PMI. METHODS In total, 133 consecutive patients undergoing elective PCI after pretreatment with dual antiplatelet therapy for at least 7 days were prospectively enrolled. Platelet reactivity was measured by the VerifyNow® assay (International Technidyne Corporation, Edison, NJ, USA) immediately before and after PCI. RESULTS Platelet reactivity significantly increased from 177.3 ± 53.4 P2Y12 reaction units (PRU) before PCI to 203.4 ± 52.8 PRU immediately after PCI (p < 0.001). Absolute changes in platelet reactivity were significantly greater in patients with than without PMI (32.4 ± 29.0 vs. 21.2 ± 24.8 PRU, respectively; p = 0.021). In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, the absolute change in PRU was an independent predictor of the incidence of PMI. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of the change in PRU during PCI for discriminating PMI showed a sensitivity, specificity, and the cut-off value of 46%, 76%, and 37 PRU, respectively (area under the curve = 0.607, p = 0.0235). When the patients were divided into two groups, namely a greater (change in PRU ≥ 37) and smaller (change in PRU < 37) increase group, the incidence rate of PMI was significantly higher in the greater than smaller increase group (59.1% vs. 34.8%, respectively; p = 0.008). Additional exploratory analyses by intracoronary imaging demonstrated that the proximal reference lumen area in the greater increase group was significantly smaller than that in the smaller increase group (6.5 ± 2.4 vs. 7.7 ± 3.1 mm2, respectively; p = 0.032). CONCLUSION An increase in platelet reactivity after elective PCI is possibly associated with PMI. This finding should be validated by a larger-scale study.

Abstract
Aims This study was undertaken to assess the association between plaque features at culprit lesions assessed by frequency-domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) and impaired microvascular perfusion estimated by intracoronary electrocardiogram (IcECG) after elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Furthermore, we investigated whether IcECG could predict future cardiac events. Methods and results This study consisted of 84 patients who underwent both FD-OCT and IcECG during PCI. Patients were classified into two groups based on ST-segment elevation (ST-E) on IcECG after the procedure; ST-E (-) group (n = 53) and ST-E (+) group (n = 31). Minimum fibrous cap thickness was significantly thinner in the ST-E (+) group than in the ST-E (-) group (240 μm [IQR 180 to 310] vs. 100 μm [IQR 60 to 120], P < 0.001). Plaque rupture (7.5% vs. 35.5%, P = 0.001), lipid-rich plaque (75.5% vs. 100%, P < 0.001), the thin cap fibroatheroma (0% vs. 25.8%, P < 0.001) on pre-FD-OCT, protrusion (18.9% vs. 56.7%, P < 0.001), and intra-stent dissection (15.1% vs. 50.0%, P < 0.001) on post-FD-OCT were significantly more frequently found in the ST-E (+) group than in the ST-E (-) group. The incidence of MACE (cardiac death, myocardial infarction, revascularization, hospitalization for heart failure) during 1-year was significantly higher in the ST-E (+) group than in the ST-E (-) group (5.7% vs. 19.4%, P < 0.05). Conclusion Plaque features assessed by FD-OCT might be associated with impaired microvascular perfusion and ST-segment elevation on IcECG after the procedure could predict 1-year cardiac events after elective PCI.

Abstract
The NFE2L2 gene encodes the transcription factor Nrf2 best known for regulating the expression of antioxidant and detoxification genes. Gene knockout approaches have demonstrated its universal cytoprotective features. While Nrf2 has been the topic of intensive research in cancer biology since its discovery in 1994, understanding the role of Nrf2 in cardiovascular disease has just begun. The literature concerning Nrf2 in experimental models of atherosclerosis, ischemia, reperfusion, cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, and diabetes supports its cardiac protective character. In addition to antioxidant and detoxification genes, Nrf2 has been found to regulate genes participating in cell signaling, transcription, anabolic metabolism, autophagy, cell proliferation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and organ development, suggesting that Nrf2 governs damage resistance as well as wound repair and tissue remodeling. A long list of small molecules, most derived from natural products, have been characterized as Nrf2 inducers. These compounds disrupt Keap1-mediated Nrf2 ubquitination, thereby prohibiting proteasomal degradation and allowing Nrf2 protein to accumulate and translocate to the nucleus, where Nrf2 interacts with sMaf to bind to ARE in the promoter of genes. Recently alternative mechanisms driving Nrf2 protein increase have been revealed, including removal of Keap1 by autophagy due to p62/SQSTM1 binding, inhibition of βTrCP or Synoviolin/Hrd1-mediated ubiquitination of Nrf2, and de novo Nrf2 protein translation. We review here a large volume of literature reporting historical and recent discoveries about the function and regulation of Nrf2 gene. Multiple lines of evidence presented here support the potential of dialing up the Nrf2 pathway for cardiac protection in the clinic.

Abstract
Tocilizumab (TCZ) is an important biologic response modifier that rheumatologists routinely employ in the treatment of several systemic autoimmune diseases. TCZ binds to interleukin (IL)-6 receptors, inhibits cellular activation, and mitigates inflammation by IL-6. In mid-2017, TCZ was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for its first nonrheumatologic condition, the treatment of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell-induced severe or life-threatening cytokine release syndrome in patients 2 years of age or older. With this approval and with the increasing use of TCZ off-label for other non-rheumatologic conditions such as Castleman's Disease and its variant TAFRO syndrome, where else might TCZ be successfully utilized as treatment? Recently interesting data has been published regarding possible use of TCZ in the treatment of myocardial infarction. This review focuses on the role of IL-6 and its receptor in myocardial inflammation and association with adverse clinical outcomes. Discussed are one animal study and two human trials that have been published studying the effect of TCZ in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Finally, this review summarizes the current data and makes recommendations for future clinical trial development in what hopefully will be a promising application of TCZ for a serious nonrheumatologic condition.

Intraluminal Intensity of Blood Speckle on Intravascular Ultrasound, a Novel Predictor of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury After Coronary Stenting. Am J Cardiol 2017; 120:1084-1089. [PMID: 28781024 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2017.06.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2017] [Revised: 06/13/2017] [Accepted: 06/29/2017] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
The difference in the intraluminal intensity of blood speckle (IBS) on integrated backscatter-intravascular ultrasound (IB-IVUS) across a coronary artery stenosis (i.e., ΔIBS) has previously shown a negative correlation with fractional flow reserve, reflecting an impaired coronary blood flow. Periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) after coronary stenting has also been associated with coronary circulatory dysfunction. The aim of this study was to investigate the relation between ΔIBS after coronary stenting and PMI. A total of 180 patients who underwent elective coronary stenting under IVUS guidance for a single lesion were included. Intraluminal IBS was measured using IB-IVUS in cross sections at the ostium of the target vessel and at the distal reference of the stent. ΔIBS was calculated as (distal IBS value) - (ostium IBS value). PMI was defined as an elevation of troponin I >5 times the 99th percentile upper reference limit (>0.45 ng/ml) within 24 hours after the procedure. The mean ΔIBS after coronary stenting was 6.52 ± 5.71. There was a significantly greater use of the rotational atherectomy, the number of stents, the total stent length, and ΔIBS in patients with PMI than those without. In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, ΔIBS significantly predicted PMI (area under the curve 0.64, best cut-off value 7.88, p = 0.001). Multiple logistic regression analysis determined that the total stent length, the use of rotational atherectomy, and ΔIBS were independent predictors of PMI. In conclusion, greater ΔIBS assessed by IB-IVUS was significantly associated with PMI after coronary stenting in patients with a stable coronary artery disease.

Abstract
AIMS The SYNTAX score is a tool to quantify the complexity of coronary artery disease. We investigated the relation between the SYNTAX score and the occurrence of a periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) according to the historical definition of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the recently updated universal definition of MI. METHODS AND RESULTS The SYNTAX score was calculated in 1,243 patients enrolled in TWENTE, a randomised trial which assessed second-generation drug-eluting stents. PMI was defined by the WHO definition and the third universal definition of MI. Patients were divided into tertiles of the SYNTAX score: ≤7 (n=430); >7 and <15 (n=390); ≥15 (n=423). PMI according to the WHO definition occurred more frequently in patients in the highest SYNTAX score tertile (7.3% vs. 3.1% vs. 1.6%, p<0.001) compared to the mid and lowest tertile. Similar findings were seen for universal PMI (9.9% vs. 7.7% vs. 3.7%, p<0.01). After multivariate analysis, SYNTAX score was a significant independent correlate of PMI for both definitions: the highest SYNTAX score tertile had an almost five times higher risk for WHO PMI, and a three times higher risk for universal PMI. CONCLUSIONS In a broad patient population treated with second-generation DES, the SYNTAX score was able to stratify the risk of PMI.
