Hellenic J Cardiol 2024:S1109-9666(24)00001-0. [PMID: 38218375 DOI: 10.1016/j.hjc.2024.01.001] [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: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with high bleeding risk (HBR) may exhibit uncertain adherence to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. The current population-based cohort study aimed to investigate the sex-based differences in adverse outcomes among the HBR population by analyzing the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. METHODS Patients who had HBR features defined by the Academic Research Consortium (ARC) and received DES implantation between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2017, were enrolled. Propensity score matching was adopted to select 3,981 pairs with similar clinical cardiovascular risks but different sexes. A competing risk model was performed to evaluate the risk of adverse ischemic events (cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke) and any bleeding events in both sexes. Noncardiac death was considered a competing risk. RESULTS Within a 5-year follow-up, the incidence rates (per 1,000 person-year (95% confidence interval (CI)) of composite ischemic events and any bleeding events in males were respectively 44.09 (40.25-48.30) and 42.55 (38.79-46.68), while those in females were respectively 40.18 (36.51-44.23) and 42.35 (38.57-46.51). After adjustment for clinical variables, male patients had a marginally increased risk in the composite ischemic events (adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio (SHR) = 1.15 (1.00-1.31), p = 0.045) and a similar risk of any bleeding events (adjusted SHR = 1.00 (0.88-1.15), p = 0.946) compared with female patients. CONCLUSIONS Of the HBR population, males had an increased risk of ischemic outcomes but a similar risk of bleeding compared with females following DES implantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frailty and malnutrition are well-known factors influencing outcomes of myocardial infarction (MI) in older adults. Due to considerable overlap between both entities, whether the simultaneous assessment of frailty and nutrition adds nonredundant value to risk assessment is unknown. METHODS We performed a prospective cohort study on 402 patients aged at least 65 years diagnosed with ST-elevation MI that underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. Nutritional status was assessed by Controlling Nutritional Status score (CONUT), Prognostic Nutritional Index, and Geriatric Nutritional Response Index. Frailty was assessed by Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS), Derby frailty index, and acute frailty network. Primary outcome was major adverse cardiac events (MACE), comprising all-cause mortality, non-fatal MI, and unplanned repeat revascularization during 28-day follow-up. Increment in Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) score performance following the addition of nutrition and frailty was assessed. RESULTS The incidence of MACE was 8.02 (6.38-9.95) per 1000 person-days. The CONUT score and CFS were the best predictors of MACE and independent predictors in the multivariate Cox-regression models [hazard ratios, 2.80 (1.54-5.09) and 2.54 (1.50-4.29)]. CONUT score classified 151 (37.6%) patients as malnourished, and CFS classified 131 (32.6%) as frail. The addition of both CONUT and CFS to the GRACE score led to better model discrimination and calibration through improved c-statistic (+0.165) ( P < 0.0001) and Akaike and Bayesian information criteria. CONCLUSION Combining CONUT and CFS provides nonredundant prognostic value despite their overlapping nature. Combined nutritional and frailty screening may improve risk prognostication in older adults following MI.

J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11237090. [PMID: 36498665 PMCID: PMC9739941 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11237090] [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: 11/05/2022] [Revised: 11/28/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
The CHA2DS2-VASc score is a reliable tool used to estimate the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Few tools exist for the prediction of new-onset AF (NOAF) after myocardial infarction (MI) and its relation to IS. We studied the usefulness of CHA2DS2-VASc in predicting NOAF and IS in a long-term follow-up after MI. Consecutive MI patients without baseline AF (n = 70,922; mean age: 68.2 years), discharged from 20 hospitals in Finland during 2005−2018, were retrospectively studied using national registries. The outcomes of interest after discharge were NOAF- and IS-assessed with competing risk analyses at one and ten years. The median follow-up was 4.2 years. The median baseline CHA2DS2-VASc score was 3 (IQR 2−5). The likelihood of both NOAF and NOAF-related IS increased stepwise with this score at one and ten years (all p < 0.0001). The one-year-adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio (sHR) was 4.03 (CI 3.68−4.42) for NOAF in patients with CHA2DS2-VASc scores ≥6 points. The cumulative incidence of IS was 15.2% in patients with NOAF vs. 6.2% in patients without AF at 10 years after MI (adj. sHR 2.12; CI 1.98−2.28; p < 0.0001). Coronary artery bypass surgery was associated with a higher NOAF incidence compared to percutaneous coronary intervention (adj. sHR 1.87; CI 1.65−2.13; p < 0.0001 one year after MI). The CHA2DS2-VASc score is a simple tool used to estimate the long-term risk of NOAF and IS after MI in patients without baseline AF. Coronary bypass surgery is associated with an increased NOAF incidence after MI.

Abstract
Background Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality for females globally, yet females are underrepresented in studies of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Studies investigating sex-related differences in clinical outcomes of patients with non-ST elevation ACS (NSTEACS) have reported divergent results, and it is unknown whether long-term outcomes for older people with NSTEACS differ between males and females. Methods The multi-centre prospective cohort study, ICON-1, consisted of patients aged ≥75 years undergoing coronary angiography following NSTEACS. The primary composite endpoint was all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, unplanned revascularisation, stroke, and bleeding. We report outcomes at five-years by sex. Results Of 264 patients, 102 (38.6%) females and 162 (61.4%) males completed the five-year follow-up and were included in the analytic cohort. At admission, females were older than males (82 ± 4.3 years vs 80.0 ± 4.1 years p = 0.018). Co-morbidity profile and GRACE score were similar between the groups. There were no differences in the provision of invasive or pharmacological treatments between sexes. At five-years, there were no association between sex and the primary outcome. Conclusion In older adults with invasive treatment of NSTEACS, provision of guideline-indicated care and long-term clinical outcomes were similar between males and females.

Abstract
Background To explore long-term cardiovascular prognosis after myocardial infarction (MI) among patients with type 1 diabetes. Methods Patients with type 1 diabetes surviving 90 days after MI (n = 1508; 60% male, mean age = 62.1 years) or without any type of diabetes (n = 62,785) in Finland during 2005–2018 were retrospectively studied using multiple national registries. The primary outcome of interest was a combined major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE; cardiovascular death, recurrent MI, ischemic stroke, or heart failure hospitalization) studied with a competing risk Fine-Gray analyses. Median follow-up was 3.9 years (maximum 12 years). Differences between groups were balanced by multivariable adjustments and propensity score matching (n = 1401 patient pairs). Results Cumulative incidence of MACE after MI was higher in patients with type 1 diabetes (67.6%) compared to propensity score-matched patients without diabetes (46.0%) (sub-distribution hazard ratio [sHR]: 1.94; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.74–2.17; p < 0.0001). Probabilities of cardiovascular death (sHR 1.81; p < 0.0001), recurrent MI (sHR 1.91; p < 0.0001), ischemic stroke (sHR 1.50; p = 0.0003), and heart failure hospitalization (sHR 1.98; p < 0.0001) were higher in patients with type 1 diabetes. Incidence of MACE was higher in diabetes patients than in controls in subgroups of men and women, patients aged < 60 and ≥ 60 years, revascularized and non-revascularized patients, and patients with and without atrial fibrillation, heart failure, or malignancy. Conclusions Patients with type 1 diabetes have notably poorer long-term cardiovascular prognosis after an MI compared to patients without diabetes. These results underline the importance of effective secondary prevention after MI in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Type 1 diabetes is a risk factor for myocardial infarction (MI). We aimed to evaluate the case fatality in patients with type 1 diabetes after MI. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Consecutive patients experiencing MI with type 1 diabetes (n = 1,935; 41% female; mean age 62.5 years) and without diabetes (n = 74,671) admitted to 20 hospitals in Finland from 2005 to 2018 were studied using national registries. The outcome of interest was death within 1 year after MI. Differences between groups were balanced by multivariable adjustments and propensity score matching. RESULTS Case fatality was higher in patients with type 1 diabetes than in propensity score-matched controls without diabetes at 30 days (12.8% vs. 8.5%) and at 1 year (24.3% vs. 16.8%) after MI (hazard ratio 1.55; 95% CI 1.32-1.81; P < 0.0001). Patients with type 1 diabetes had poorer prognosis in subgroups of men and women and of those with and without ST-elevation MI, with and without revascularization, with and without atrial fibrillation, and with and without heart failure. The relative fatality risk in type 1 diabetes was highest in younger patients. Older age, heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, renal failure, and no revascularization were associated with worse prognosis after MI. The case fatality among patients with type 1 diabetes decreased during the study period, but outcome differences compared with patients without diabetes remained similar. CONCLUSIONS Patients with type 1 diabetes are at higher risk of death after MI than patients without diabetes. Our findings call for attention to vigorous cardiovascular disease prevention in patients with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have a lower prevalence in women than men; although, a higher mortality rate and a poorer prognosis are more common in women. However, there is a misperception of CVD female risk since women have commonly been considered more protected so that the real threat is vastly underestimated. Consequently, female patients are more likely to be treated less aggressively, and a lower rate of diagnostic and interventional procedures is performed in women than in men. In addition, there are substantial sex differences in CVD, so different strategies are needed. This review aims to evaluate the main gender-specific approaches in CVD.
