Abstract
BACKGROUND Aging is a key risk factor for atherosclerosis progression that is associated with increased incidence of ischemic events in supplied organs, including stroke, coronary events, limb ischemia, or renal failure. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death and major disability in adults ≥ 75 years of age. Atherosclerotic occlusive disease affects everyday activity, quality of life, and it is associated with reduced life expectancy. As most multicenter randomized trials exclude elderly and very elderly patients, particularly those with severe comorbidities, physical or cognitive dysfunctions, frailty, or residence in a nursing home, there is insufficient data on the management of older patients presenting with atherosclerotic lesions outside coronary territory. This results in serious critical gaps in knowledge and a lack of guidance on the appropriate medical treatment. In addition, due to a variety of severe comorbidities in the elderly, the average daily number of pills taken by octogenarians exceeds nine. Polypharmacy frequently results in drug therapy problems related to interactions, drug toxicity, falls with injury, delirium, and non-adherence. Therefore, we have attempted to gather data on the medical treatment in patients with extra-cardiac atherosclerotic lesions indicating where there is some evidence of the management in elderly patients and where there are gaps in evidence-based medicine. Public PubMed databases were searched to review existing evidence on the effectiveness of lipid-lowering, antithrombotic, and new glucose-lowering medications in patients with extra-cardiac atherosclerotic occlusive disease.

Abstract
The global incidence and prevalence of type 2 diabetes have been escalating in recent decades. The total diabetic population is expected to increase from 415 million in 2015 to 642 million by 2040. Patients with type 2 diabetes have an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). About two-thirds of patients with type 2 diabetes died of ASCVD. The association between hyperglycemia and elevated cardiovascular (CV) risk has been demonstrated in multiple cohort studies. However, clinical trials of intensive glucose reduction by conventional antidiabetic agents did not significantly reduce macrovascular outcomes.In December 2008, U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a mandate that every new antidiabetic agent requires rigorous assessments of its CV safety. Thereafter, more than 200,000 patients have been enrolled in a number of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). These trials were initially designed to prove noninferiority. It turned out that some of these trials demonstrated superiority of some new antidiabetic agents versus placebo in reducing CV endpoints, including macrovascular events, renal events, and heart failure. These results are important in clinical practice and also provide an opportunity for academic society to formulate treatment guidelines or consensus to provide specific recommendations for glucose control in various CV diseases.In 2018, the Taiwan Society of Cardiology (TSOC) and the Diabetes Association of Republic of China (DAROC) published the first joint consensus on the "Pharmacological Management of Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Diseases." In 2020, TSOC appointed a new consensus group to revise the previous version. The updated 2020 consensus was comprised of 5 major parts: (1) treatment of diabetes in patients with multiple risk factors, (2) treatment of diabetes in patients with coronary heart disease, (3) treatment of diabetes in patients with stage 3 chronic kidney disease, (4) treatment of diabetes in patients with a history of stroke, and (5) treatment of diabetes in patients with heart failure. The members of the consensus group thoroughly reviewed all the evidence, mainly RCTs, and also included meta-analyses and real-world evidence. The treatment targets of HbA1c were finalized. The antidiabetic agents were ranked according to their clinical evidence. The consensus is not mandatory. The final decision may need to be individualized and based on clinicians' discretion.

Abstract
Stroke is a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Considerable experimental and clinical evidence suggests that both diabetes mellitus (DM) and post-stroke hyperglycemia are associated with increased mortality rate and worsened clinical conditions in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. Insulin treatment does not seem to provide convincing benefits for these patients, therefore prompting a change of strategy. The selective agonists of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptors (GLP-1Ras) and the Inhibitors of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV (DPP-IVIs, gliptins) are two newer classes of glucose-lowering drugs used for the treatment of DM. This review examines in detail the rationale for their development and the physicochemical, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties and clinical activities. Emphasis will be placed on their neuroprotective effects at cellular and molecular levels in experimental models of acute cerebral ischemia. In perspective, an adequate basis does exist for a novel therapeutic approach to hyperglycemia in AIS patients through the additive treatment with GLP-1Ras plus DPP-IVIs.

Abstract
The perinatal period represents a time of great vulnerability for the developing brain. A variety of injuries can result in death or devastating injury causing profound neurocognitive deficits. Hypoxic-ischemic neonatal encephalopathy (HIE) remains the leading cause of brain injury in term infants during the perinatal period with limited options available to aid in recovery. It can result in long-term devastating consequences with neurologic complications varying from mild behavioral deficits to severe seizure, intellectual disability, and/or cerebral palsy in the newborn. Despite medical advances, the only viable option is therapeutic hypothermia which is classified as the gold standard but is not used, or may not be as effective in preterm cases, infection-associated cases or low resource settings. Therefore, alternatives or adjunct therapies are urgently needed. Ongoing research continues to advance our understanding of the mechanisms contributing to perinatal brain injury and identify new targets and treatments. Drugs used for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have demonstrated neuroprotective properties and therapeutic efficacy from neurological sequelae following HIE insults in preclinical models, both alone, or in combination with induced hypothermia. In this short review, we have focused on recent findings on the use of diabetes drugs that provide a neuroprotective effect using in vitro and in vivo models of HIE that could be considered for clinical translation as a promising treatment.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (or gliptins), a class of antidiabetic drugs, have recently been shown to have protective actions in the central nervous system. Their cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for these effects are largely unknown. In the present study, two structurally different gliptins, sitagliptin and vildagliptin, were examined for their therapeutic actions in a controlled cortical impact (CCI) model of moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice. Early post-CCI treatment with sitagliptin, but not vildagliptin, significantly reduced body asymmetry, locomotor hyperactivity, and brain lesion volume. Sitagliptin attenuated post-CCI microglial deramification in the ipsilateral dorsolateral (DL) striatum, while vildagliptin had no effect. Sitagliptin also reduced striatal expression of galectin-3 and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1(MCP-1), and increased the cortical and striatal levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 on the ipsilateral side. These data support a differential protective effect of sitagliptin against TBI, possibly mediated by an anti-inflammatory effect in striatum to preserve connective network. Both sitagliptin and vildagliptin produced similar increases of active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in blood and brain. Increasing active GLP-1 may not be the sole molecular mechanisms for the neurotherapeutic effect of sitagliptin in TBI.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction has been associated with the pathogenesis of a variety of neurodegenerative diseases. Sitagliptin is a dipeptidyl-peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor that has been approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). In the current study, we report that sitagliptin increased the expression of PGC-1α, NRF1, and TFAM in human SH-SY5Y neuronal cells. Notably, our data indicate that sitagliptin promoted mitochondrial biogenesis by increasing the amount of mtDNA, the levels of mitochondria-related genes such as TOMM20, TOMM40, TIMM9, NDUFS3, ATP5C1, and the expression of oxidative phosphorylation subunits complex I and complex IV. Additionally, we found that sitagliptin induced a "gain of mitochondrial function" in SH-SY5Y cells by increasing the mitochondrial respiratory rate and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Significantly, our results demonstrate that sitagliptin activated the transcriptional factor CREB by inducing its phosphorylation at Ser133. Inhibition of CREB using its specific inhibitor H89 abolished the effects of sitagliptin on the expression of PGC-1α, NRF1, and TFAM, as well as an increase in mtDNA amount and ATP production. These findings suggest that sitagliptin could become a potential agent for the treatment of neurological disorders.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular events associated with oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) have raised significant safety concerns. This study assessed the association between dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) and the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with or without chronic kidney disease (CKD). STUDY DESIGN A retrospective cohort study using Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. SETTINGS AND PARTICIPANTS Our study included patients with type 2 diabetes who received OHAs between March 1, 2009, and December 31, 2012. All eligible subjects were classified into CKD and non-CKD cohorts and further categorized as the DPP-4i and non-DPP-4i users in each cohort. METHODS The DPP-4i and non-DPP-4i groups were matched 1:1 by propensity score to attenuate potential selection bias. Propensity score was estimated by logistic regression, using demographics, co-medications, comorbidities. and adapted diabetic complication severity index at baseline. OUTCOMES Outcomes of interest included a composite endpoint of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular death (major adverse cardiac events [MACE]), and hospitalization for heart failure (hHF). COX proportional hazard models were applied to examine the association between DPP-4i and outcomes of interest. RESULTS We identified 37,641 and 87,604 patients with type 2 diabetes with and without CKD, respectively. After propensity score matching, 8,213 pairs of CKD patients and 12,313 pairs of non-CKD patients were included for analysis. In the CKD cohort, DPP-4i were associated with a 25% increased risk of hHF (DPP-4i vs. non-DPP-4i incidence/1,000 person-years: 15.0 vs. 9.9, HR = 1.25; 95% CI 1.01-1.54, p = 0.037) but not with the risk of MACE (HR = 0.89, p = 0.144). In the non-CKD cohort, DPP-4i were associated with a lower risk of MACE (DPP-4i vs. non-DPP-4i incidence/1,000 person-years: 9.8 vs. 12.6 HR = 0.73; 95% CI 0.61-0.87, p = 0.0007), but not the risk of hHF (HR = 1.09, p = 0.631). CONCLUSIONS DPP-4i were found to be associated with decreased risk of MACE in the non-CKD cohort in our study. However, DPP-4i were associated with increased risk of hHF in the CKD cohort. DPP-4i in the CKD cohort should be used cautiously.

Abstract
Repositioning of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists is a breakthrough in the field of neural regeneration research increasing glucagon like peptide-1 bioavailability, hence its neuroprotective activities. In this article, the authors suggest not only crossing blood-brain barrier and neurodegenerative disease as off target for dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists, but also for ophthalmic preparations for diabetic retinopathy, which may be the latest breakthrough in the field if prepared and used in an appropriate nano-formulation to target the retinal nerves. The relation of neurodegenerative diseases’ different mechanisms to the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists should be further examined in preclinical and clinical settings. The repositioning of already marketed antidiabetic drugs for neurodegenerative diseases should save the high cost of the time-consuming normal drug development process. Drug repositioning is a hot topic as an alternative to molecular target based drug discovery or therapeutic switching. It is a relatively inexpensive pathway due to availability of previous pharmacological and safety data. The glucagon like peptide-1 produced in brain has been linked to enhanced learning and memory functions as a physiologic regulator in central nervous system by restoring insulin signaling. Intranasal administration of all marketed gliptins (or glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists) may show enhanced blood-brain barrier crossing and increased glucagon like peptide-1 levels in the brain after direct crossing of the drug for the olfactory region, targeting the cerebrospinal fluid. Further blood-brain barrier crossing tests may extend dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors’ effects beyond the anti-hyperglycemic control to intranasal spray, intranasal powder, or drops targeting the blood-brain barrier and neurodegenerative diseases with the most suitable formula. Moreover, novel nano-formulation is encouraged either to obtain favorable pharmacokinetic parameters or to achieve promising blood-brain barrier penetration directly through the olfactory region. Many surfactants should be investigated either as a solubilizing agent for hydrophobic drugs or as penetration enhancers. Different formulae based on in vitro and in vivo characterizations, working on sister gliptins (or glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists), different routes of administration, pharmacokinetic studies, dose response relationship studies, monitoring of plasma/brain concentration ratio after single and multiple dose, and neurodegenerative disease animal models are required to prove the new method of use (utility) for dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors as potential neuroprotective agents. Furthermore, investigations of glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists’ neuroprotective effects on animal models will be considered carefully because they crossed the blood-brain barrier in previous studies, enabling their direct action on the central nervous system. Combination therapy of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors or glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists with already marketed drugs for neurodegenerative disease should be considered, especially regarding the novel intranasal route of administration.

Limited data are available about the cardiovascular (CV) safety and efficacy of sitagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, in ischemic stroke patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Ischemic stroke patients with T2DM and CKD were selected from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) from March 1, 2009 to December 31, 2011. A total of 1375 patients were divided into 2 age- and gender-matched groups: patients who received sitagliptin (n = 275; 20%) and those who did not (n = 1,100). Primary major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including ischemic stroke, hemorrhagic stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), or CV death, were evaluated. During a mean 1.07-year follow-up period, 45 patients (16.4%) in the sitagliptin group and 165 patients (15.0%) in the comparison group developed MACCEs (Hazard ratio [HR] 1.05; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.75-1.45). Compared to the non-sitagliptin group, the sitagliptin group had a similar risk of ischemic stroke (HR 0.82; 95% CI, 0.51-1.32.), hemorrhagic stroke (HR 1.50; 95% CI, 0.58-3.82), MI (HR 1.14; 95% CI, 0.49-2.65), and CV mortality (HR 1.06; 95% CI, 0.61-1.85). The use of sitagliptin in recent ischemic stroke patients with T2DM and CKD was not associated with increased or decreased risk of adverse CV events.

Abstract
Drug repositioning is a revolution breakthrough of drug discovery that presents outstanding privilege with already safer agents by scanning the existing candidates as therapeutic switching or repurposing for marketed drugs. Sitagliptin, vildagliptin, saxagliptin & linagliptin showed antioxidant and neurorestorative effects in previous studies linked to DPP-4 inhibition. Literature showed that gliptins did not cross the blood brain barrier (BBB) while omarigliptin was the first gliptin that crossed it successfully in the present work. LC-MS/MS determination of once-weekly anti-diabetic DPP-4 inhibitors; omarigliptin & trelagliptin in plasma and brain tissue was employed after 2 h of oral administration to rats. The brain/plasma concentration ratio was used to deduce the penetration power through the BBB. Results showed that only omarigliptin crossed the BBB due to its low molecular weight & lipophilic properties suggesting its repositioning as antiparkinsonian agent. The results of BBB crossing will be of interest for researchers interested in Parkinson's disease. A novel intranasal formulation was developed using sodium lauryl sulphate surfactant to solubilize the lipophilic omarigliptin with penetration enhancing & antimicrobial properties. Intranasal administration showed enhanced brain/plasma ratio by 3.3 folds compared to the oral group accompanied with 2.6 folds increase in brain glucagon-like peptide-1 concentration compared to the control group.

Abstract
AIMS To compare the hazard of cardiovascular diseases between DPP-4 inhibitor users and non-users who were on insulin therapy. METHODS We conducted a population-based cohort study. 2652 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) under insulin therapy were enrolled during 1997-2010. The incidence rates per 1000 person-years (PYs) of stroke, coronary heart disease (CAD) and heart failure were compared between 1326 DPP-4 inhibitor users and 1326 propensity score matched non-users. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate excess risk of the DPP-4 inhibitor non-users. RESULTS After adjustment of age, gender, comorbidities, drugs used and diabetes duration; the incidence rate per 1000 PYs were 21.70 and 9.88 in DPP-4 inhibitor non-users and users; DPP-4 inhibitor users had lower hazard ratio (HR) of stroke (adjusted HR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.42-0.83, p value: 0.002) compared with non-users. The incidence rates per 1000 PYs of CAD and heart failure of control versus users were 19.85 versus 13.54 and 5.56 versus 4.78; the adjusted HRs of CAD and heart failure were 0.86 and 1.11. Both were non-significant. CONCLUSION This nationwide study demonstrated that insulin plus DPP-4 inhibitor users had significantly lower risk of stroke as compared with non-users.

Abstract
Background Preventable drug-related hospital admissions can be associated with drugs used in diabetes and the benefits of strict diabetes control may not outweigh the risks, especially in older populations. The aim of this study was to look for evidence on risks and benefits of DPP-4 inhibitors in older adults and to use this evidence to develop recommendations for the electronic decision support tool of the PRIMA-eDS project. Methods Systematic review using a staged approach which searches for systematic reviews and meta-analyses first, then individual studies only if prior searches were inconclusive. The target population were older people (≥65 years old) with type 2 diabetes. We included studies reporting on the efficacy and/or safety of DPP-4 inhibitors for the management of type 2 diabetes. Studies were included irrespective of DPP-4 inhibitors prescribed as monotherapy or in combination with any other drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The target intervention was DPP-4 inhibitors compared to placebo, no treatment, other drugs to treat type 2 diabetes or a non-pharmacological intervention. Results Thirty studies (reported in 33 publications) were included: 1 meta-analysis, 17 intervention studies and 12 observational studies. Sixteen studies were focused on older adults and 14 studies reported subgroup analyses in participants ≥65, ≥70, or ≥75 years. Comorbidities were reported by 26 studies and frailty or functional status by one study. There were conflicting findings regarding the effectiveness of DPP-4 inhibitors in older adults. In general, DPP-4 inhibitors showed similar or better safety than placebo and other antidiabetic drugs. However, these safety data are mainly based on short-term outcomes like hypoglycaemia in studies with HbA1c control levels recommended for younger people. One recommendation was developed advising clinicians to reconsider the use of DPP-4 inhibitors for the management of type 2 diabetes in older adults with HbA1c <8.5% because of scarce data on clinically relevant benefits of their use. Twenty-two of the included studies were funded by pharmaceutical companies and authored or co-authored by employees of the sponsor. Conclusions Other than the surrogate endpoint of improved glycaemic control, data on clinically relevant benefits of DPP-4 inhibitors in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus in older adults is scarce. DPP-4 inhibitors might have a lower risk of hypoglycaemia compared to other antidiabetic drugs but data show conflicting findings for long-term benefits. Further studies are needed that evaluate the risks and benefits of DPP-4 inhibitors for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus in older adults, using clinically relevant outcomes and including representative samples of older adults with information on their frailty status and comorbidities. Studies are also needed that are independent of pharmaceutical company involvement.

Abstract
Considering the causative or contributory effects of diabetes mellitus on common neurological diseases such as polyneuropathy, stroke and dementia, modern antidiabetic drugs may be expected to reduce incidence or progression of these conditions. Nevertheless, most observed benefits have been small, except in the context of therapy for diabetes mellitus type I and new-onset polyneuropathy. Recently, semaglutide, a GLP-1 analog, has been shown to significantly reduce stroke incidence in a randomized controlled trial. Beneficial effects of antidiabetic drugs on stroke severity or outcome have been controversial, though. The level of risk conferred by diabetes mellitus, the complex pathophysiology of neurological diseases, issues of trial design, side-effects of antidiabetic drugs as well as co-medication might be interacting factors that determine the performance of antidiabetic therapy with respect to neurological outcomes. It might be speculated that early treatment of prediabetes might prevent cerebral arteriosclerosis, cognitive decline or polyneuropathy more effectively, but this remains to be demonstrated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the cardiovascular (CV) outcomes of drug-eluting stents (DESs) versus bare-metal stents (BMSs) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS). METHODS Data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database was analyzed between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2011. A total of 3051 AMI patients in CS were selected as the study cohort. Their clinical outcomes were evaluated by comparing 1017 subjects who used DESs to 2034 matched subjects who used BMSs. RESULTS The risk of the primary composite outcome (i.e., death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and coronary revascularization) was significantly lower in the DES group compared with the BMS group [56.1% vs. 66.2%, hazard ratio (HR), 0.74; 95% CI, 0.67-0.81] with a mean follow-up of 1.35years. The patients who received DESs had a lower risk of coronary revascularization (HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.67-0.91) and death (HR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.62-0.79) than those who used BMSs. However, the risks of myocardial infarction (HR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.66-1.18), ischemic stroke (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.67-1.53) and major bleeding (HR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.56-1.14) were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with CS complicating AMI, DES implantation significantly reduced the risk of percutaneous coronary revascularization and death compared to BMS implantation.

Abstract
Background Several antidiabetic drugs (i.e., sulfonylureas; SU, rosiglitazone) have been reported to be associated with increased risks of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP4i) are newly available antidiabetic drugs. Most studies only compared DPP4i with a placebo or SU, or targeted a specific CVD event of interest (i.e., heart failure; HF). Comparative research of CVD risks of DPP4i with other antidiabetic drugs (i.e., metformin, thiazolidinediones, meglitinides, acarbose, and insulin) remains scarce. This study was aimed to assess comparative risks of CVD, including ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction (MI) and HF, and hypoglycemia of DPP4i with other antidiabetic drugs. Methods We utilized Taiwan’s National Health Insurance Research Database. A total of 123,050 T2DM patients newly prescribed oral antidiabetic treatments were identified in 2009–2010 and followed until 2013. Outcome endpoints included a composite of CVD events: hospitalizations for ischemic stroke, MI and HF, and hypoglycemia. Time-varying Cox proportional hazards regression was applied to assess the time to event hazards of various antidiabetic drugs, adjusted for patients’ demographics, comorbidity, diabetic complications, and co-medications. Additional analyses were performed for the patients with and without CVD history, respectively. Results DPP4i users had significantly lower CVD risks as compared to that of non-DPP4i users (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 0.83, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.76–0.91). Compared to DPP4i users, meglitinides (aHR 1.3, 95 % CI 1.20–1.43) and insulin users (aHR 3.73, 95 % CI 3.35, 4.14) had significantly higher risks for composite CVD, as well as those for stroke, MI, HF, and hypoglycemia. Additionally, metformin users had significantly lower risks for composite CVD risk (aHR 0.87, 95 % CI 0.79–0.94), as well as those for MI, HF, and hypoglycemia, as compared to those of DPP4i users. Although there was a trend toward low CVD risks in pioglitazone users, the role of potential confounding by indication cannot be excluded. Conclusions DPP4i-treated T2DM patients had lower risks for CVD as compared to those for non-DPP4i users, except metformin users.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the cardiovascular (CV) outcomes of drug-eluting stents (DES) vs. bare-metal stents (BMS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) under dialysis are limited. METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed the data from 42,592 AMI patients in the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database between 1 January 2007 and 31 December 2011. A total of 984 AMI patients under dialysis were selected as the study cohort. We evaluated the clinical outcomes by comparing 492 subjects who had DES to 492 matched subjects who had BMS. The primary composite outcomes, which included recurrent MI, coronary revascularization and CV death, were significantly lower in the DES group than in the BMS group (41.7% vs. 47.6%, hazard ratio (HR), 0.77; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.63-0.92, P=0.005) after mean 1.2 years. The patients who received DES had a lower risk of recurrent MI (HR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.45-0.90), CV death (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.56-0.98) and all-cause mortality (HR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.61-0.89) than those who used BMS, but a similar risk of major bleeding (HR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.69-1.42, P=0.952) and ischemic stroke (HR, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.66-2.01, P=0.631). CONCLUSIONS Among AMI patients on dialysis undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, DES implantation significantly reduced the risk of recurrent MI, CV death and all-cause mortality compared with BMS implantation.
