Characteristics of calcified nodule attributable to culprit lesion in acute coronary syndrome: A systematic review and meta-analysis. iScience 2024; 27:110351. [PMID: 39092174 PMCID: PMC11292520 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.110351] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024] Open
Abstract
The presence of calcified nodule (CN) is a significant characteristic of atherothrombosis in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, its characteristics continue to be understudied. This review aimed to further investigate these characteristics. This study found that CN was a distinctive feature of an atheromatous plaque, representing 6.3% of ACS. CN was more common in NSTE-ACS than in STEMI patients (9.4% vs. 6.6%). CN was also chiefly observed in the left anterior descendant artery (48%), followed by the right coronary (40.4%) and left circumflex (14.5%) arteries. Higher prevalence of hypertension (78.8%), diabetes mellitus (50.8%), multivessel disease (71.7%), and kidney disease (26.43%) were noted in CN compared to non-CN patients. CN-associated ACS also 6-fold increased the risk of target lesion revascularization compared to those without CN.

Rotational atherectomy for chronically and totally occluded coronary lesions: A propensity score-matched outcomes study. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:1061812. [PMID: 36620617 PMCID: PMC9810983 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.1061812] [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: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Despite advances being made in techniques and devices, certain chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesions remain uncrossable or undilatable. Rotational atherectomy (RA) is usually necessary for such lesions to achieve successful revascularization. Methods Information regarding consecutive patients who underwent coronary RA was retrieved from the catheterization laboratory database. Patients who underwent RA for CTO lesion refractory using other conventional devices were recruited, with propensity score-matched cases serving as controls. Results A total of 411 patients underwent coronary RA in the study period. Most patients had high-risk features (65.7% had acute coronary syndrome (ACS), 14.1% ischemic cardiomyopathy, and 5.1% cardiogenic shock), while only 20.2% of the patients had stable angina. Among them, 44 patients underwent RA for CTO lesions (CTO group), whereas the propensity score matched controls consist of 37 patients (non-CTO group). The baseline characteristics, high-risk features, coronary artery disease (CAD) vessel numbers, left ventricular function and biochemistry profiles of both groups were the same except for more patients with diabetes (67.6% vs. 45.5%, p = 0.046) in the non-CTO group and more 1.25 mm burr uses in the CTO group. There were no significant differences in acute procedural outcomes or incidence of acute contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), and no patient demanded emergent CABG or died during the procedure. There was no significant difference in major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), CV MACE or individual components between the two groups in the hospital, at 30, 90, and 180 days or at 1 year. Conclusion In comparison with the propensity risk factor scores-matched controls, there was no difference in procedural complications, acute CIN or clinical outcomes during various stages of RA for CTO lesions. RA for CTO patients was highly efficient and showed safety and outcome profiles similar to those for non-CTO lesions.
