Comparative Analysis of High-Intensity versus Low-to-Moderate Intensity Statin Therapy in Patients Undergoing Rotational Atherectomy for Calcified Coronary Artery Disease. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:2232. [PMID: 38004373 PMCID: PMC10672288 DOI: 10.3390/life13112232] [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: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Moderate-intensity statin therapy, when compared to high-intensity statin therapy in Asian populations, has shown no significant difference in cardiovascular prognosis in small studies. The aim of this study was to compare the prognosis of patients based on statin intensity following rotational atherectomy (RA) during high-complexity percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). (2) Methods: The ROCK registry, a multicenter retrospective study, included patients who had undergone rotational atherectomy (RA) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) at nine tertiary medical centers in South Korea between January 2010 and October 2019. The patients were divided into high-intensity statin (H-statin) and moderate/low-intensity statin (M/L-statin) therapy groups. The primary endpoint includes outcomes (cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (MI), and target vessel revascularization (TVR)) within an 18-month follow-up period. (3) Results: In this registry, a total of 540 patients with 583 lesions were included. We excluded 39 lesions from the analysis due to the absence of statin usage. The H-statin group had 394 lesions and the M/L-statin group had 150 lesions. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics, procedural adverse events without heart failure history, triglycerides, or medications between the two groups. The procedural success rate showed a significant difference between the two groups. Multivariate analysis did not show a significant association between M/L-statin therapy and an increased risk of the primary endpoint. In propensity score matching analysis, no significant difference was observed in the primary endpoint either. (4) Conclusions: In high-complex RA PCI, moderate/low-intensity statin therapy is not inferior to high-intensity statin therapy in Korea.

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.

Atherosclerosis 2022; 363:1-7. [PMID: 36423426 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2022.11.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) often allows us to observe reverberations behind calcification in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to heavily calcified lesions. However, clinical significance of reverberations remains unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of reverberations on stent expansion and clinical outcomes after PCI with rotational atherectomy (RA) to heavily calcified lesions. METHODS We considered 250 calcified lesions that underwent IVUS-guided PCI with RA. According to the number of reverberations (NR), those lesions were divided into the high NR (≥3) group (n = 36) and the low NR (≤2) group (n = 214). Stent expansion and the cumulative incidence of ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization (ID-TLR) were compared between the high and low NR groups. RESULTS The high NR group showed significantly smaller stent expansion rate than the low NR group (67.7% vs. 75.9%, respectively, p=0.02). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high NR and calcified nodule were significantly associated with stent underexpansion. The incidence of ID-TLR was significantly higher in the high NR group than in the low NR group (p=0.03). In multivariate Cox hazard analysis, high NR and acute coronary syndrome were significantly associated with ID-TLR. CONCLUSIONS High NR was significantly associated with stent underexpansion and ID-TLR. When high NR was detected by IVUS, the PCI strategy was be planned carefully to avoid stent underexpansion. The follow-up program of the patients with high NR might need to be scheduled prudently because of the high risk of TLR.

Abstract
Background: The aim of this study was to compare the clinical outcomes of biodegradable polymer (BP) versus durable polymer (DP) drug eluting stents (DES) in patients with calcified coronary lesions who underwent rotational atherectomy (RA) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: This study was based on a multicenter registry which enrolled patients with calcified coronary artery disease who received PCI using RA during between January 2010 and October 2019 from 9 tertiary centers in Korea. The primary outcome was 3-year all-cause mortality, and the secondary outcomes were cardiovascular death and target-lesion failure. Results: A total of 540 patients who underwent PCI using RA were enrolled with a follow-up period of median 16.1 months. From this registry, 272 patients with PCI using DP-DES and 238 patients with BP-SGDES were selected for analysis. PCI with BP-DES was associated with decreased all-cause mortality after propensity score matching (HR 0.414, CI 0.174–0.988) and multivariate Cox regression analysis (HR 0.458, HR 0.224–0.940). BP-DES was also associated with decreased cardiovascular mortality, but there was no difference in TLF between the two groups. Conclusions: BP-DES were associated with favorable outcomes compared to DP-DES in patients undergoing PCI using RA for calcified coronary lesions.

Rotablation in Patients with Advanced Renal Insufficiency through End-Stage Renal Disease: Short- and Intermediate-Term Results. J Interv Cardiol 2022; 2022:7884401.

Abstract
Objective. Patients with advanced renal insufficiency are at high risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and complex lesions. Treating complex calcified lesion with rotational atherectomy (RA) in these patients might be associated with higher risks and poorer outcomes. This study was set to evaluate features and outcomes of RA in these patients. Method. Consecutive patients who received coronary RA from April 2010 to April 2018 were queried from the Cath Lab database. The procedural details, angiography, and clinical information were reviewed in detail. Results. A total of 411 patients were enrolled and divided into Group A (baseline serum creatinine <5 mg/dl, n = 338) and Group B (baseline serum creatinine ≥ 5 mg/dl through ESRD, n = 73). Most patients had high-risk features (65.7% of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), 14.1% of ischemic cardiomyopathy, and 5.1% of cardiogenic shock). Group B patients were significantly younger (66.8 ± 11.4 vs. 75.2 ± 10.7 years,
) and had more RCA and LCX but less LAD treated with RA. No difference was found in lesion location, vessel tortuosity, bifurcation lesions, chronic total occlusion, total lesion length, or total lesion numbers between the two groups. Less patients in Group B obtained completion of RA (95.9% vs 99.1%,
). There was no difference in the incidence of procedural complication or acute contrast-induced nephropathy. Group B patients had more deaths and MACE while in the hospital. The MACE and CV MACE were also higher in Group B patients at 180 days and one year, mostly due to TLR and TVR. Multivariate regression analysis showed that ACS, age, peripheral artery disease (PAD), advanced renal insufficiency, ischemic cardiomyopathy/shock, and high residual SYNTAX score were independent risk factors for in-hospital MACE, whereas ACS, advanced renal insufficiency, ischemic cardiomyopathy/shock, triple-vessel disease, and PAD independently predicted MACE at 6 months. Conclusions. Rotablation is feasible, safe, and could be carried out with very high success rate in very-high-risk patients with advanced renal dysfunction through ESRD without an increase in procedural complication.

Abstract
Objectives This study aims to describe the outcome of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) when used with different indications and to assess the short- and long-term outcomes of IVL-facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background Intravascular lithotripsy can improve the results of PCI of calcified coronary lesions with a low rate of periprocedural complications. Methods A total of 105 consecutive patients with 110 calcified lesions underwent IVL. A total of 87 de novo lesions were treated by IVL with the following indications: 25 before attempting other balloon-based devices (primary IVL), 51 after the failure of non-compliant balloon dilatation (secondary IVL), and 11 after stent implantation because of stent under expansion (bailout IVL). In 23 lesions, IVL was used for the treatment of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Effectiveness (angiographic success) and safety [major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and IVL-related procedural complications] endpoints were assessed. Results Angiographic success was achieved in 84.6% of lesions. Early MACEs were periprocedural MI only, ranging from 6.7 to 20% depending on MI definition. The flow-limiting dissections rate was 2.7%. A total of five (4.5%) IVL balloons ruptured during treatment with subsequent vessel perforation in 1 case. MACEs at 12 months were 13.3%, with TLR occurring in 8 lesions (12% primary IVL, 0% secondary IVL, 0% bailout IVL, and 21.7% IVL for ISR, p = 0.002). Conclusion Treatment of calcified coronary lesions with IVL in a “real-world” setting can be performed with high success, low rate of procedural complications, and an acceptable MACEs rate. Target lesion failure may be more frequent when IVL is performed for the treatment of ISR due to calcium-mediated stent under expansion.

Liang B, Gu N. High-speed rotational atherectomy in coronary artery calcification: The randomized ROTAXUS and PREPARE-CALC trials. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv 2022; 100:61-71. [PMID: 35128781 DOI: 10.1002/ccd.30119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical outcomes of high-speed rotational atherectomy (RA) to optimize target lesion preparation in coronary artery calcification (CAC) have been examined in several trials. AIMS This study was conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RA for CAC. METHODS Patient data were pooled from ROTAXUS and PREPARE-CALC. The primary endpoint was the in-stent late lumen loss and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 9 months. Secondary endpoints included in-segment late lumen loss, binary restenosis, strategy success, procedural duration, and contrast amount. RESULTS Four hundred and forty patients were enrolled from Germany in this study, 220 patients were randomized to the RA group and 220 patients were randomized to the Control group. Despite similar baseline characteristics, significantly more patients in the Control group were crossover (14.1% vs. 2.3%, p < 0.0001), resulting in higher strategy success in the RA group (95.0% vs. 82.3%, p < 0.0001). At 9 months, in-stent late lumen loss was higher in the RA group (0.34 ± 0.52 mm vs. 0.24 ± 0.47 mm, p = 0.03) and procedural duration was longer in the RA group (76.3 ± 41.8 min vs. 67.0 ± 38.8 min, p = 0.02). MACE (17.8% vs. 25.2%, p = 0.06), in-segment late lumen loss (0.28 ± 0.66 mm vs. 0.17 ± 0.55 mm, p = 0.05), binary restenosis (7.3% vs. 8.2%, p = 0.71 in-stent; 7.7% vs. 9.0%, p = 0.62 in-segment), and contrast amount (215.5 ± 112.5 ml vs. 203.7 ± 96.5 ml, p = 0.24) were similar in both groups. CONCLUSION Lesion preparation with upfront RA before drug-eluting stent implantation is feasible in CAC, is more strategy successful, and is associated with excessive in-stent late lumen loss and excellent clinical outcomes at 9 months although longer procedural duration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Radial artery is the preferred access site in contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, limited data exist regarding utilization pattern, safety, and long-term efficacy of transradial artery access (TRA) PCI in heavily calcified lesions using high-speed rotational atherectomy (HSRA). METHODS All patients who underwent HSRA-PCI in Sweden between 2005 and 2016 were included. Outcomes were major adverse cardiac events (MACE, including death, myocardial infarction (MI) or target vessel revascularisation (TVR)), in-hospital bleeding and restenosis. Inverse probability of treatment weighting was used to adjust for the non-randomized access site selection. RESULTS We included 1479 patients of whom 649 had TRA and 782 transfemoral artery access (TFA) HSRA-PCI. The rate of TRA increased significantly by 18% per year but remained lower in HSRA-PCI (60%) than in the overall PCI population (85%) in 2016. TRA was associated with comparable angiographic success but significantly lower risk for major (adjusted OR 0.16; 95% CI 0.05-0.47) or any in-hospital bleeding (adjusted OR 0.32; 95% CI 0.13-0.78). At one year, the adjusted risk for MACE (HR 0.87; 95% CI 0.67-1.13) and its individual components did not differ between TRA and TFA patients. The risk for restenosis did not significantly differ between TRA and TFA HSRA-PCI treated lesions (adjusted HR 0.92; 95% CI 0.46-1.81). CONCLUSION HSRA-PCI by TRA was associated with significantly lower risk for in-hospital bleeding and equivalent long-term efficacy when compared with TFA. Our data support the feasibility and superior safety profile of TRA in HSRA-PCI.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Data is still limited regarding clinical outcomes of rotational atherectomy (RA) after percutaneous coronary intervention. We sought to evaluate clinical outcomes of RA. Materials and Methods: This multi-center registry enrolled patients who underwent RA during PCI from nine tertiary centers in Korea between January 2010 and October 2019. The primary endpoint was target-vessel failure (TVF; the composite outcome of cardiac death, target-vessel spontaneous myocardial infarction, or target-vessel revascularization). Results: Of 540 patients (583 lesions), the mean patient age was 71.4 ± 0.4 years, 323 patients (59.8%) were men, and 305 patients (56.5%) had diabetes mellitus. Technical success rate was 96.4%. In-hospital major adverse cerebral and cardiac events occurred in 63 cases (10.8%). At 1.5 years, 72 (16.0%) of TVFs were occurred. We evaluated independent predictors of TVF, which included current smoker (hazard ratio (HR), 1.92; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.17–3.16; p = 0.01), chronic renal disease (HR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.14–3.08; p = 0.013), history of cerebrovascular attack (HR, 2.14; 95% CI, 1.24-3.68; p = 0.006), left ventricle ejection fraction (HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97–0.999; p = 0.037), and left main disease (HR, 1.94; 95% CI, 1.11–3.37; p = 0.019). Conclusions: From this registry, we demonstrated acceptable success rates, in-hospital and mid-term clinical outcomes of RA in the DES era.

Comparison of optical coherence tomography-guided and intravascular ultrasound-guided rotational atherectomy for calcified coronary lesions. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2021; 21:290. [PMID: 34116631 PMCID: PMC8193877 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-021-02103-5] [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: 01/03/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background To compare the effect and outcomes of optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided rotational atherectomy (RA) with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided RA in the treatment of calcified coronary lesions. Methods Data of calcified coronary lesions treated with RA that underwent OCT-guided or IVUS-guided from January 2016 to December 2019 at a single-center registry were retrospectively analyzed. The effect and outcomes between underwent OCT-guided RA and IVUS-guided RA were compared. Results
A total of 33 lesions in 32 patients received OCT-guided RA and 51 lesions in 47 patients received IVUS-guided RA. There was no significant difference between OCT-guided RA group and IVUS-guided RA group in clinical baselines characteristics. Comparing the procedural and lesions characteristics of the two groups, the contrast volume was larger [(348.8 ± 110.6) ml vs. (275.2 ± 76.8) ml, P = 0.002] and the scoring balloon was more frequently performed (33.3% vs. 3.9%, P = 0.001) after RA and before stenting in the OCT-guided RA group. Comparing the intravascular imaging findings of the two groups, stent expansion was significantly larger in the OCT-guided RA group ([82 ± 8]% vs. [75 ± 9]%, P = 0.001). Both groups achieved procedural success immediately. There were no significantly differences in the incidence of complications. Although there was no statistical difference in the occurrence of MACE at 1 year between OCT-guided RA group and IVUS-guided RA group (3.1% vs. 6.4%, P = 0.517), no cardiovascular death, TVR and stent thrombosis occurred in OCT-guided RA group. Conclusions OCT-guided RA compared to IVUS-guided RA for treating calcified coronary lesions resulted in better stent expansion and may have improved prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to assess anatomical and procedural predictors of clinical and procedural failure of rotational atherectomy (RA) in an all-comers population.Methods and Results:A total of 534 consecutive patients who underwent RA were included in a double-center observational study. The primary composite endpoint consisted of: rota-wire introduction failure, burr-passage failure, periprocedural complications and procedure-related major adverse events. The second primary endpoint included rota-wire introduction failure and burr-passage failure. The primary endpoint occurred in 76 (14.2%) patients and the second primary endpoint occurred in 64 (12%) Periprocedural complications occurred in 23 (4.3%) and procedure-related adverse events in 23 (4.3%) patients. Multivariable analysis revealed angulation on lesion ≤90° (HR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.21-3.94, P=0.0096) and sequential lesion (HR=1.89, 95% CI: 1.01-3.54, P=0.046) as independent predictors of no clinical success of RA. Multivariable analysis revealed again that angulation on lesion ≤90° (HR=2.26, 95% CI: 1.16-4.40, P=0.02) and sequential lesion (HR=3.77, 95% CI: 1.64-8.69, P<0.01) as independent predictors of no procedural success of RA. CONCLUSIONS The presence of an acute angulation on lesion and sequential lesion are independent determinants of clinical and procedural failure of RA. Further research is necessary to establish a score predicting RA failure, which can help in preproceduralrisk stratification of patients undergoing complex percutaneous coronary intervention with RA.

Abstract
Objectives To introduce a modified rotational atherectomy (RA) procedure and investigate the early and midterm outcomes of the RA-facilitating diversified percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a large group of aged patients with higher cardiovascular risk. Background Previous studies about the outcomes of RA were limited with small sample size and low-risk population. Methods Between January 2013 and November 2015, 1169 consecutive patients treated with modified RA-facilitated PCI were retrospectively enrolled, including de novo calcified lesions and in-stent restenosis. Patients were regularly followed up for at least 1 year. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were analyzed for all participants by different strategies. Cox regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for the events. Results The median age of patients was 75 years, with 11.7% of patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Most lesions (99.9%) were complex (American Heart Association type B2/C), and 68.3% were treated with RA + drug-eluting-stent (DES). Successful angiography was achieved in 97.8% cases, with 1.7% (20/1169) experiencing coronary perforation (including guidewire perforation). The incidence of MACE was 20.5% and 26.8% at 1-year and 2-year follow-up and were mainly driven by target lesion revascularization (TLR) (10.3% and 12.5%, respectively). The strategy of RA + DES had the lowest 2-year MACE, compared with the RA + drug-coated balloon and RA + plain old balloon angioplasty (14.5%, 30.5%, and 26.0%, respectively). Conclusions The modified RA technique is a safe and effective tool in the contemporary PCI era, even in high-risk patients. The TLR rate was relatively high but acceptable in such complex lesions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention in moderately and severely calcified coronary lesions, which are either not crossed or dilated using a Scoreflex balloon at nominal pressure, using single-burr rotational atherectomy (burr-artery ratio, ≤0.6) followed by scoring balloon dilatation (balloon-artery ratio, 0.9). METHODS We retrospectively identified 144 patients with severely and moderately calcified native coronary lesions, which were either not crossed or fully opened using an appropriately sized Scoreflex balloon at nominal pressure, from a tertiary care center in India. All patients underwent rotational atherectomy. The primary endpoint was angiographic and procedural success and in-hospital clinical outcomes. The secondary endpoint was the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at one-year clinical follow-up. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 68.75±8.37 years, and 83.33% of them were over 60 years old. Moderate calcification was present in 21.53%, and the remaining 78.47% had severe calcification. Procedural success was achieved in 139 (96.52%) patients. In-hospital death was reported in four (2.77%) patients. Multiple regression analysis revealed that in severely calcified coronary lesions, burr rotation speed and heparin dose were significantly associated with in-hospital MACE occurrence (p=0.0337). CONCLUSION A modified small-burr rotational atherectomy technique with scoring balloon angioplasty pre-dilatation is a safe and effective surgical procedure with favorable clinical outcomes for moderately and severely calcified coronary lesions.

Abstract
Objective We evaluated the safety and efficacy of rotational atherectomy (RA) in
patients with a reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Methods In total, 140 consecutive patients with severe coronary artery calcification
(CAC) who underwent RA were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were grouped
based on LVEF: ≤35% (n = 10), 36% to 50% (n = 11), and >50% (n = 119). We
assessed procedural success and periprocedural complication rates as well as
the incidences of in-hospital and 2-year major adverse cardiac events
(MACEs), defined as hospitalization for myocardial infarction and worsening
heart failure, target vessel revascularization, and cardiac death. Results Procedural success was achieved in nearly all patients in each group. Most
periprocedural complications were minor, and major complications were
uncommon. The 2-year MACE rate was significantly higher in the LVEF ≤35%
than LVEF >50% group (40.0% vs. 6.7%, respectively). Multivariable
regression analysis revealed that the LVEF was the only independent
predictor of 2-year MACEs in patients who underwent RA. Conclusions Patients with a reduced LVEF who underwent RA had procedural success rates
similar to those of patients with preserved left ventricular systolic
function. The LVEF might be an independent predictor of 2-year MACEs in
patients with severe CAC after percutaneous coronary intervention following
RA.

Abstract
Introduction: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) occurs at an advanced stage of atherosclerosis and its comorbidities are associated with poor prognoses. Malnutrition is related to the severity of atherosclerosis in patients with cardiovascular disease and it predicts mortality. The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score is calculated from serum albumin concentration, peripheral lymphocyte count and total cholesterol concentration, and it robustly represents the nutritional status of hospitalized patients. This study aimed to determine the prognostic value of the CONUT score in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who were undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT). METHODS and RESULTS: This study included 628 PAD patients who underwent EVT between 2013 and 2017 and were assigned to low (CONUT score 0: n = 81), mild (CONUT score 1–2: n = 250), moderate (CONUT score 3–4: n = 169), and high (CONUT score ≥ 5: n = 128) risk groups. The study’s primary endpoint was any death. Patients in the groups with higher CONUT scores were more likely to have chronic kidney disease (p < 0.001), impaired left ventricular ejection fractions (p < 0.001), and critical limb ischemia (p < 0.001) on admission. During follow-up, 95 patients (15%) died. Kaplan–Meier analyses revealed that the patients with higher CONUT scores had lower survival rates (p < 0.001; log-rank trend test). Multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that following adjustments for the confounding factors, a higher CONUT score was significantly associated with any death (hazard ratio, 1.15; 95% confidence interval, 1.03–1.30). CONCLUSION: The simple index CONUT score at the time of EVT may predict long-term mortality in PAD patients.

Clinical impact of complex percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with coronary artery disease. Cardiovasc Interv Ther 2019; 35:234-241.

Abstract
For the revascularization of patients with clinical and anatomical complexities, several technical skills are often required. However, the prognostic effect of complex percutaneous coronary intervention (C-PCI) on the clinical outcomes is not well known. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the C-PCI and mid-term clinical outcomes. We assessed 1062 patients who underwent PCI with newer-generation drug-eluting stent and stratified the patients according to whether they had complex PCI (C-PCI, n = 358) or non-complex PCI (non-C-PCI, n = 704). C-PCI was defined as a procedure with at least 1 of the following features: 3 vessels treated, ≥ 3 stents per vessel implanted, ≥ 3 lesions treated, use of a 2-stent technique, the total stent length per vessel > 60 mm, chronic total occlusion, unprotected left main coronary artery stenting, and rotational atherectomy use. All-cause death and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE; cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal ischemic stroke) were evaluated. The median follow-up period was 1.9 (0.8-3.0) years. The baseline SYNTAX score was significantly higher in the C-PCI group than in the non-C-PCI group [20 (14-27) vs. 10 (6-17), p < 0.001]. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative incidences of all-cause death (log-rank p = 0.12) and MACCE (log-rank p = 0.64) did not differ between the two groups. On multivariable Cox analysis, C-PCI did not adversely affect the clinical outcomes. Despite a high rate of anatomically complex coronary lesions, the patients who underwent C-PCI had comparable "hard" clinical outcomes with those of non-C-PCI.

[PMID: 31201059 DOI: 10.1016/j.carrev.2019.05.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2018] [Revised: 05/06/2019] [Accepted: 05/20/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to assess the impact of scoring balloon angioplasty (SBA) after rotational atherectomy (RA) on long-term clinical outcomes in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES). The long-term outcomes associated with SBA after RA in severely calcified lesions is unknown. METHODS Using the J2T ROTA registry data, we evaluated the clinical events of patients who underwent PCI using RA for heavily calcified lesions from January 2004 to December 2015. A total of 307 patients who underwent PCI with second-generation DES were analyzed and divided into the SBA (n = 96) and conventional balloon angioplasty (CBA) groups (n = 211). Eighty-two and 189 patients comprised the "SBA after small burr (SBA-SB)" and "CBA after small burr (CBA-SB)" subgroups, respectively, for the subgroup analysis. Study endpoints were incidence of 3-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE), target vessel revascularization (TVR), and target lesion revascularization (TLR). RESULTS Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the incidence of 3-year cumulative MACE, TVR, and TLR were comparable between groups, and that the incidences of 3-year cumulative MACE, TVR, and TLR were significantly lower in the SBA-SB subgroup than in the CBA-SB subgroup (log-rank p = 0.008; log-rank p = 0.047; log-rank p = 0.045; respectively). Multivariate Cox regression model indicated that SBA after RA was an independent predictor of MACE (hazard ratio: 0.337; 95% confidence interval: 0.139 to 0.817; p = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS Additional SBA following RA was associated with lower MACE incidence in patients undergoing RA with a small-sized burr.

Long-term cardiovascular prognosis after rotational atherectomy in hemodialysis patients: Data from the J2T multicenter registry. Int J Cardiol 2019; 285:14-20. [PMID: 30904279 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2019.03.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2018] [Revised: 03/02/2019] [Accepted: 03/12/2019] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemodialysis (HD) patients have heavy calcium deposits in their stenotic coronary arteries and worse post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) prognoses than those who do not undergo HD. Rotational atherectomy (RA) facilitates PCI success in severely calcified lesions. We aimed to identify clinical and procedural characteristics that predict HD patients' long-term prognoses after PCI that included RA in the drug-eluting stent (DES) era. METHODS This study included 302 patients who underwent regular HD from J2T Multicenter Registry database of 1090 consecutive patients who underwent RA to treat de novo calcified lesions at three university hospitals between 2004 and 2015. The primary endpoint was cardiovascular (CV) death. RESULTS During the 5-year observation period, 59 CV deaths (19.5%) occurred. The CV death group and non-CV death group had comparable profiles except significantly lower left ventricular ejection fraction, higher brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), lower rate of RA burr upsizing, and lower rate of final thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) 3 flow achievement in the CV death group. Cox regression analysis revealed that increasing ablation burr size (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.33; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.13-0.81), final TIMI 3 flow (HR: 0.07; 95% CI: 0.02-0.28), lower BNP level, and optimal medication were independently associated with better CV mortality in HD patients. CONCLUSION In the DES era, oral medications at the time of PCI and stepwise calcium ablation were associated with improved long-term CV mortality in HD patients who are scheduled to undergo RA to treat severely calcified coronary artery stenoses, as therapeutic strategies.
