Predictive value of the APACHE II score in cardiogenic shock patients treated with a percutaneous left ventricular assist device. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2022; 40:101013. [PMID: 35372664 PMCID: PMC8971639 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2022.101013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2022] [Revised: 03/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Background The APACHE II score assesses patient prognosis in intensive care units. Different disease entities are predictable by using a specific factor called Diagnostic Category Weight (DCW). We aimed to validate the prognostic value of the APACHE II score in patients treated with a percutaneous left ventricular assist device because of refractory cardiogenic shock (CS). Methods From the Dresden Impella Registry, we analyzed 180 patients receiving an Impella CP®. The main outcome was the observed intrahospital mortality (S^(thosp)), which was compared to the predicted mortality estimated by the APACHE II score. Results The APACHE II score, which was 33.5 ± 0.6, significantly overestimated intrahospital mortality (S^(thosp) 54.4 ± 3.7% vs. APACHE II 74.6 ± 1.6%; p < 0.001). Nevertheless, the APACHE II score showed an acceptable accuracy to predict intrahospital mortality (ROC AUC 0.70; 95% CI 0.62–0.78). Thus, we adapted the formula for calculation of predicted mortality by adjusting DCW. The total registry cohort was randomly divided into derivation group for calculation of adjusted DCW and validation group for testing. Intrahospital mortality was much more precisely predicted using the adjusted DCW compared to the conventional DCW (difference of predicted and observed mortality: –4.7 ± 2.4% vs. –23.2 ± 2.3%; p < 0.001). The new calculated DCW was −1.183 for the total cohort. Conclusion The APACHE II score has an acceptable accuracy for the prediction of intrahospital mortality but overestimates its total amount in CS patients. Adjustment of the DCW can lead to a much more precise prediction of prognosis.

Efficacy and safety of sacubitril valsartan in treating heart failure with midrange ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction in diabetic patients. Medicine (Baltimore) 2022; 101:e28729. [PMID: 35119021 PMCID: PMC8812610 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000028729] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2021] [Accepted: 01/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of sacubitril valsartan in the treatment of heart failure (HF) with midrange ejection fraction after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in diabetic patients. From January 2015 to July 2020, HF patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with AMI were retrospectively analyzed. According to the medication, they were divided into 2 groups, that is, sacubitril valsartan group (84 cases) and valsartan group (86 cases). Valsartan group took valsartan capsule (80 mg/capsule, Beijing Novartis Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd) 80 mg, qd, on the basis of routine treatment. On the basis of routine treatment, the sacubitril valsartan group took sacubitril valsartan sodium tablets (50 mg/tablet, Beijing Novartis Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd), the initial dose was 25 mg, bid, and gradually increased to the target dose according to the patient's blood pressure. After 12 months of treatment, the independent sample t test showed that the left ventricular end diastolic dimension in the sacubitril valsartan group was lower than that in the valsartan group [(47.26 ± 4.71) mm vs (50.05 ± 5.62) mm, P < .001]. The left ventricular ejection fraction in the sacubitril valsartan group was higher than that in the valsartan group [(54.76 ± 4.24)% vs (49.28 ± 3.74)%, P < .001]. χ2 inspection showed that the readmission rate in the sacubitril valsartan group was lower than that in the valsartan group (7.14% vs 18.60%, P < .05). Sacubitril valsartan has good safety and tolerability in patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with AMI who have HF with midrange ejection fraction. Compared with valsartan, sacubitril valsartan can improve the left ventricular function better and reduce the readmission rate due to HF in these patients.

Abstract
Congestive heart failure, a prominent cardiovascular disease results primarily from myocardial infarction or ischemia. Milrinone (MRN), a widely used clinical drug for heart failure, improves myocardial contractility and cardiac function through its inotropic and vasodilatory effects. However, lacking target specificity, it exhibits low bioavailability and lower body retention time. Therefore, in this study, angiotensin II (AT1) peptide conjugated human serum albumin nanoparticles (AT1-HSA-MRN-NPs) have been synthesized for targeted delivery of MRN to the myocardium, overexpressing AT1 receptors under heart failure. The NPs were surface functionalized through a covalent conjugation reaction between HSA and AT1. Nanoparticle size was 215.2±4.7 nm and zeta potential -28.8±2.7 mV and cumulative release of MRN was ~72% over 24 hrs. The intracellular uptake of nanoparticles and cell viability was studied in H9c2 cells treated with AT1-MRN-HSA-NPs vs the control non-targeted drug, MRN Lactate under normal, hypoxic and hypertrophic conditions. The uptake of AT1-HSA-MRN-NPs in H9c2 cells was significantly higher as compared to non-targeted nanoparticles, and the viability of H9c2 cells treated with AT1-MRN-HSA-NPs vs MRN Lactate was 73.4±1.4% vs 44.9±1.4%, respectively. Therefore, AT1-HSA-MRN-NPs are safe for in vivo use and exhibit superior targeting and drug delivery characteristics for treatment of heart failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder, which is characterized by memory loss and cognitive deficits. The neuroprotective role of milrinone on the injury of spinal cord or cerebral ischemia-reperfusion has been confirmed. However, the accurate function of milrinone on AD pathogeny is still unclear. METHODS APP/PS1 transgenic mouse was used to explore the role of milrinone in behaviour tests, and the effects on histopathologic features of AD such as the formation of neuronal amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque, microglial activation, tau protein hyperphosphorylation, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/Aβ-treated BV-2 cells were used to understand the anti-inflammation mechanism of milrinone on AD in vitro. RESULTS Our in vivo results showed that milrinone ameliorates the memory functions of AD mice. Meanwhile, milrinone reduced Aβ deposits, repressed microglial activation and tau protein hyperphosphorylation, attenuated the oxidative stress, and decreased the levels of inflammatory cytokines. The in vitro results demonstrated that milrinone could inhibit the secretion of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α via regulation of NLRP3 inflammasomes and TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signalling pathway. CONCLUSION Overall, milrinone could ameliorate the memory loss and cognitive deficits through repressing the multiple pathological processes of AD, suggesting that milrinone may be an underlying and effective drug for treating AD clinically.

The effect of milrinone on mortality in adult patients who underwent CABG surgery: a systematic review of randomized clinical trials with a meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2020; 20:328. [PMID: 32640988 PMCID: PMC7346403 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-020-01598-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2019] [Accepted: 06/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background As an inodilator, milrinone is commonly used for patients who undergo coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery because of its effectiveness in decreasing the cardiac index and mitral regurgitation. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing studies from the past 20 years to evaluate the impact of milrinone on mortality in patients who undergo CABG surgery. Methods We performed a systematic literature search on the application of milrinone in patients who underwent CABG surgery in studies published between 1997 and 2017 in BioMed Central, PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register. The included studies evaluated milrinone groups compared to groups receiving either placebo or standard treatment and further compared the systemic administration. Results The network meta-analysis included 723 patients from 16 randomized clinical trials. Overall, there was no significant difference in mortality between the milrinone group and the placebo/standard care group when patients underwent CABG surgery. In addition, 9 trials (with 440 randomized patients), 4 trials (with 212 randomized patients), and 10 trials (with 470 randomized patients) reported that the occurrence of myocardial infarction (MI), myocardial ischemia, and arrhythmia was lower in the milrinone group than in the placebo/standard care group. Between the milrinone treatment and placebo/standard care groups, the occurrence of myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia, and arrhythmia was significantly different. However, the occurrence of stroke and renal failure, the duration of inotropic support (h), the need for an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), and mechanical ventilation (h) between these two groups showed no differences. Conclusions Based on the current results, compared with placebo, milrinone might be unable to decrease mortality in adult CABG surgical patients but can significantly ameliorate the occurrence of MI, myocardial ischemia, and arrhythmia. These results provide evidence for the further clinical application of milrinone and of therapeutic strategies for CABG surgery. However, along with milrinone application in clinical use, sufficient data from randomized clinical trials need to be collected, and the potential benefits and adverse effects should be analyzed and reevaluated.

Diagnostic and prognostic value of autoantibodies against β 1-adrenoreceptors in patients with heart failure following acute myocardial infarction: A 5-year prospective study. Exp Ther Med 2020; 19:1259-1266. [PMID: 32010297 PMCID: PMC6966159 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2019.8331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Accepted: 11/15/2019] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
A number of studies have suggested that autoantibodies against β1-adrenoreceptors (β1R-AAbs) have an important role in pathophysiological processes of heart failure. The aim of the present study was to determine whether β1R-AAbs are implicated in cardiac dysfunction following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and their association with prognosis. A total of 33 cases with systolic heart failure (SHF), 49 with diastolic heart failure (DHF) and 44 with normal heart function following AMI were recruited. β1R-AAbs were detected by ELISA and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) were recorded during the 5-year follow-up. The positive rate of β1R-AAbs in the SHF group (45.5%) was significantly higher compared with that in the DHF (22.4%; P<0.05) and normal (15.9%; P<0.05) groups. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve for the diagnosis of SHF was 0.630 (95% CI: 0.514–0.747, P=0.026). During a median follow-up period of 51.0±15.4 months, the positive rate of β1R-AAbs in the MACEs group was significantly higher compared with that in the non-MACEs group (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the left ventricular ejection fraction and diabetes were independent predictors of 5-year MACEs following AMI, whereas β1R-AAbs were not. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the cumulative MACEs-free survival rate was the lowest in the SHF group, followed by the DHF and normal groups (P<0.05). Therefore, β1R-AAbs were indicated to be of value for early diagnosis of SHF after AMI but not as independent predictors for the prognosis of patients with AMI.

Abstract
Congestive heart failure (CHF) is defined as a cardiac dysfunction leading to low cardiac output and inadequate tissue perfusion. Intravenous positive inotropes are used to increase myocardial contractility in hospitalized patients with advanced heart failure. Milrinone is a phosphodiesterase Ⅲ inhibitor and used most commonly for inotropic effect. The well-known PROMISE study investigated the effects of milrinone on mortality in patients with severe CHF, and concluded that long-term therapy with milrinone increased morbidity and mortality among patients with advanced CHF. Previous studies have suggested that phosphodiesterase inhibitors can have potential effects on inflammatory pathways. Hence, we hypothesized that milrinone may alter inflammatory gene expressions in cardiomyocytes, thus leading to adverse clinical outcomes. We used rat cardiomyocyte cell line H9C2 and studied the impact of exposing cardiomyocytes to milrinone (10 μmol/L) for 24 hours on inflammatory gene expressions. RNA extracted from cultured cardiomyocytes was used for whole rat genome gene expression assay (41,000 genes). The following changes in inflammatory response-related gene expressions were discovered. Genes with increased expressions included: THBS2 (+9.98), MMP2 (+3.47), DDIT3 (+2.39), and ADORA3 (+3.5). Genes with decreased expressions were: SPP1 (-5.28) and CD14 (-2.05). We found that the above mentioned gene expression changes seem to indicate that milrinone may hinder the inflammatory process which may potentially lead to adverse clinical outcomes. However, further in vivo and clinical investigations will be needed to illustrate the clinical relevance of these gene expression changes induced by milrinone.

Abstract
Effects of milrinone on serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), cystatin C (Cys-C) and cardiac functions of patients with chronic heart failure were analyzed to investigate the value of milrinone in chronic heart failure. A total of 70 patients diagnosed with chronic heart failure were selected and randomly divided into treatment group (n=35) and control group (n=35). All patients were treated with conventional anti-heart failure therapy, and patients in the treatment group received milrinone on the basis of conventional therapy. The general data of patients, such as age, sex and course of chronic heart failure, were collected; the levels of serum IL-6, TNF-α and Cys-C before and after treatment were compared between the groups, and the cardiac function indexes were also compared, including cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDd), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVSd) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level. Besides, the curative effects and adverse reactions in the two groups were recorded. The results revealed that serum IL-6, TNF-α and Cys-C levels had no significant difference between the two groups before treatment; however, the curative effect in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in control group (p<0.05); after treatment, CO, SV and LVEF in both groups were obviously increased, but LVDd, LVSd and BNP levels were obviously decreased; the curative effect in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in control group (p<0.05); heart rate in both groups was obviously decreased after treatment (p<0.05); the total effective rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in control group after treatment (p<0.05). In conclusion, based on the conventional anti-heart failure therapy, the application of milrinone can reduce the serum IL-6, TNF-α and Cys-C levels and improve the cardiac functions of patients effectively.

Abstract
Inotropes are medications that improve the contractility of the heart and are used in patients with low cardiac output or evidence of end-organ dysfunction. Since their initial discovery, inotropes have held promise in alleviating symptoms and potentially increasing longevity in such patients. Decades of intensive study have further elucidated the benefits and risks of using inotropes. In this article, the authors discuss the history of inotropes, their indications, mechanism of action, and current guidelines pertaining to their use in heart failure. The authors provide insight into their appropriate use and related shortcomings and the practical aspects of inotrope use.

Milrinone for cardiac dysfunction in critically ill adult patients: a systematic review of randomised clinical trials with meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Milrinone is an inotrope widely used for treatment of cardiac failure. Because previous meta-analyses had methodological flaws, we decided to conduct a systematic review of the effect of milrinone in critically ill adult patients with cardiac dysfunction. METHODS This systematic review was performed according to The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Searches were conducted until November 2015. Patients with cardiac dysfunction were included. The primary outcome was serious adverse events (SAE) including mortality at maximum follow-up. The risk of bias was evaluated and trial sequential analyses were conducted. The quality of evidence was assessed by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation criteria. RESULTS A total of 31 randomised clinical trials fulfilled the inclusion criteria, of which 16 provided data for our analyses. All trials were at high risk of bias, and none reported the primary composite outcome SAE. Fourteen trials with 1611 randomised patients reported mortality data at maximum follow-up (RR 0.96; 95% confidence interval 0.76-1.21). Milrinone did not significantly affect other patient-centred outcomes. All analyses displayed statistical and/or clinical heterogeneity of patients, interventions, comparators, outcomes, and/or settings and all featured missing data. DISCUSSION The current evidence on the use of milrinone in critically ill adult patients with cardiac dysfunction suffers from considerable risks of both bias and random error and demonstrates no benefits. The use of milrinone for the treatment of critically ill patients with cardiac dysfunction can be neither recommended nor refuted. Future randomised clinical trials need to be sufficiently large and designed to have low risk of bias.
