Abstract
Abstract
Background
Recent blood pressure guidelines recommend intensive blood pressure control in diabetic patients with cardiovascular disease.
Purpose
We sought to investigate combined impact of intensive blood glucose lowering and blood pressure control on clinical outcome in diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has not been fully investigated yet.
Method
Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR) – National Institute of Health (NIH) database included 12,179 patients (9,046 men; mean age = 63.6±12.6 year-old) who were discharged alive. Among them, 3,430 (28.2%) had a diabetes mellitus (DM). MACCEs were defined as a composition of all cause death, non-fatal MI, repeat revascularizations including repeated percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary bypass grafting, cerebrovascular accident and rehospitalizations at 1 year. This research was supported by a fund by Research of Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Result
We determined cut-off value of discharge systolic blood pressure (SBP) to predict 1-year MACCE in DM and non-DM patients. Discharge SBP of less than 130mmHg was associated with a lower MACCE at 1 year compared to SBP level of 130mmHg or greater (10.8% versus 15.4%; log-rank p=0.001) in DM patients, whereas discharge SBP cut-off level was 140mmHg to discriminate 1-year MACCE in non-DM patients (6.4% versus 8.5%, log-rank p=0.045). In DM patients, there were no significant difference in 1-year MACCEs between patients with HbA1c less than 7% versus 7% or greater (12.0% versus 10.7%; log-rank p=0.325). DM patients were categorized into 4 groups; discharge SBP <130mmHg and HbA1c <7% (Group 1); discharge SBP <130mmHg and HbA1c ≥7% (Group 2); discharge SBP ≥130mmHg and HbA1c <7% (Group 3); discharge SBP ≥130mmHg and HbA1c ≥7% (Group 4). Intensive BP control was associated lower 1-year MACCEs in patients with good glycemic control (Group 1 & 3; 10.7% versus 16.7%; log-rank p=0.009). However, in patients with poor glycemic control, intensive BP control did not improve 1-year MACCEs (Group 2 & 4; 10.6% versus 11.1%; log-rank p=0.761).
Conclusion
Strict BP control is more important than glycemic control to improve short-term clinical outcome in DM patients with AMI. However, in patients with poor glycemic control, strict BP control did not improve clinical outcome.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Regardless of diabetes mellitus (DM), admission hyperglycemia is not uncommon in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). Although DM is a well-known predictor of mortality in AHF, the impacts of admission hyperglycemia on clinical outcomes in non-DM patients with AHF have been poorly studied. The aim of this study, therefore, was to compare the impact of admission hyperglycemia on long-term clinical outcomes in AHF patients with or without DM.
Methods
Among 5,625 AHF patients enrolled in a nationwide registry, a total of 5,541 patients were enrolled and divided into 2 groups; DM group (n=2,125, 70.4±11.4 years) vs. non-DM group (n=3,416, 67.3±16.0 years). Each group were further divided into 2 groups according to the presence of admission hyperglycemia (admission serum glucose level >200mg/dl); admission hyperglycemia (n=248) and no hyperglycemia (n=3,168) in non-DM; admission hyperglycemia (n=799) and no hyperglycemia (n=1,326) in DM. All-cause death and hospitalization due to HF (HHF) during 1-year follow-up were compared.
Results
Death was developed in 1,220 patients (22.2%) including 269 inhospital deaths (4.9%) during 1-year of follow-up. Death rate were significantly higher in DM than in non-DM group (24.8% vs 20.5%, p<0.001), however there was no difference in inhospital death (5.1% vs 4.7%, p=0.534). Both inhospital death (7.6% vs. 4.2%, p<0.001) and 1-year death (26.2% vs. 21.3%, p=0.001) were more frequent in AHF patients with hyperglycemia. On Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis, however, admission hyperglycemia was associated with significantly higher death (p<0.001 by log-rank test) and rehospitalization (p=0.006 by log-rank test) in non-DM group, but not in DM group. In non-DM group, admission hyperglycemia was an independent predictor of 1-year mortality (HR 1.46, 95% CI 1.10–1.93, p=0.009).
Conclusion
DM was a significant predictor of long-term mortality in patients with AHF. Admission hyperglycemia was associated with both higher inhospital and 1-year mortality. The present study also demonstrated that admission hyperglycemia is an independent predictor of mortality in non-DM patients with AHF, but not in DM patients. In addition to the presence of DM, admission hyperglycemia would be a useful marker in the risk stratification of AHF, especially in non-DM patients.

Abstract
AIM Few data are available on the gender-related differences in the prognostic impact of diabetes in people with heart failure. This study was performed to investigate whether there is a gender difference in the association between diabetes and long-term clinical outcomes in people hospitalized for heart failure. METHODS A total of 3162 people hospitalized with heart failure (aged 67.4 ± 14.1 years, 50.4% females) from the data set of the nationwide registry were analysed. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause mortality and heart failure readmission. RESULTS People with diabetes (30.5% for males vs. 31.1% for females, P = 0.740) were older and had more unfavourable risk factors and laboratory findings than those without diabetes in both genders. During a median follow-up period of 549 days, there were 1418 cases of composite events (44.8%). In univariable analysis, the coexistence of diabetes was significantly associated with a higher incidence of composite events in both genders (P < 0.05 each for males and females). In multivariable analysis, the prognostic impact of diabetes on the development of composite events remained significant in females even after controlling for potential confounders (hazard ratio 1.43, 95% confidence intervals 1.12-1.84; P = 0.004). However, an independent association between diabetes and composite events was not seen in males in the same multivariable analysis (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS In people with heart failure, the impact of diabetes on long-term mortality and heart failure readmission seems to be stronger in females than in males. More careful and intensive management is needed especially in females with heart failure and diabetes.

Abstract
Abstract
Background/Introduction
Although optimal revascularization strategy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) was well established, there are few studies which investigated optimal revascularization strategy in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEM) with MVD.
Purpose
We investigated 2-year clinical outcomes according to strategy of revascularization in patients with NSTEMI and MVD.
Methods
Between November 2011 and October 2015, a total of 2474 patients with NSTEMI and MVD who underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention were analyzed from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institute of Health (staged 308, one-time 1043 and culprit-only 1123 patients). We did not include patients with left main disease and cardiogenic shock. Primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE: the composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction [MI] or target-vessel revascularization [TVR]) during 2-year follow-up (median 737 days [interquartile range 705–764]). We also analyzed the of all-cause mortality, stroke and non-TVR.
Results
Baseline characteristics such as age, gender, and prevalence of atherosclerotic risk factors between multivessel revascularization (MVR; staged or one-time revascularization) and CVR were similar. There was also no difference in symptom to balloon time in 2 groups. MACE occurred in 305 patients (12.3%) during 2-year follow-up. MVR could reduce incidence of MACE (10.2% vs. 14.9%; adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.50 for CVR, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.20–1.88, p<0.001), all-cause death (8.4% vs. 12.1%; adjusted HR 1.45 for CVR, 95% CI 1.13–1.87, p=0.003) and non-TVR (1,9% vs. 7.0%; adjusted HR 3.99 for CVR, 95% CI 2.55–6.27, p<0.001). There was no difference in incidence of stroke between MVR and CVR. We also analyzed same analysis between staged and one-time revascularization. Complete revascularization was more achieved in one-time revascularization group compared to staged revascularization group (62.0% vs. 76.1%, p<0.001). In multivariate Cox-regression analysis, staged revascularization was not associated with improved clinical outcomes in terms of MACE (HR 0.74, 95% CI 0.50–1.09, p=0.126), all-cause death (HR 1.07, 95% CI 0.69–1.68, p=0.759), stroke (HR 1.75, 95% CI 0.68–4.52, p=0.245) and non-TVR (HR 2.56, 95% CI 0.75–8.68, p=0.132). Analysis by propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting did not significantly affect the results.
Conclusions
MVR reduced 2-year adverse cardiac events in patients with NSTEMI and MVD compared to CVR. However, staged revascularization was not superior to one-time revascularization for reducing MACE among NSTEMI patients with MVD who received MVR.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is a major underlying etiology in patients with heart failure (HF). Although the impact of IHD on HF is evolving, there is a lack of understanding of how IHD affects long-term clinical outcomes and uncertainty about the role of IHD in determining the risk of clinical outcomes by gender.
Purpose
This study aims to evaluate the gender difference in impact of IHD on long-term clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
Methods
Study data were obtained from the nationwide registry which is a prospective multicenter cohort and included patients who were hospitalized for HF composed of 3,200 patients. A total of 1,638 patients with HFrEF were classified into gender (women 704 and men 934). The primary outcome was all-cause death during follow-up and the composite clinical events of all-cause death and HF readmission during follow-up were also obtained. HF readmission was defined as re-hospitalization because of HF exacerbation.
Results
133 women (18.9%) were died and 168 men (18.0%) were died during follow-up (median 489 days; inter-quartile range, 162–947 days). As underlying cause of HF, IHD did not show significant difference between genders. Women with HFrEF combined with IHD had significantly lower cumulative survival rate than women without IHD at long-term follow-up (74.8% vs. 84.9%, Log Rank p=0.001, Figure 1). However, men with HFrEF combined with IHD had no significant difference in survival rate compared with men without IHD (79.3% vs. 83.8%, Log Rank p=0.067). After adjustment for confounding factors, Cox regression analysis showed that IHD had a 1.43-fold increased risk for all-cause mortality independently only in women. (odds ratio 1.43, 95% confidence interval 1.058–1.929, p=0.020). On the contrary to the death-free survival rates, there were significant differences in composite clinical events-free survival rates between patients with HFrEF combined with IHD and HFrEF without IHD in both genders.
Figure 1
Conclusions
IHD as predisposing cause of HF was an important risk factor for long-term mortality in women with HFrEF. Clinician need to aware of gender-based characteristics in patients with HF and should manage and monitor them appropriately and gender-specifically. Women with HF caused by IHD also should be treated more meticulously to avoid a poor prognosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Current guideline recommends potent antiplatelet agents and transradial intervention. However, it is uncertain whether routine use of IVUS, thrombus aspiration and glycoprotein IIB-IIIA inhibitor is beneficial for improving clinical outcome in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate optimal procedural strategy to improve clinical outcome.
Methods
A total of 6,046 patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for STEMI were analyzed from the Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR) – National Institute of Health (NIH) database. MACCEs were defined as a composition of all cause death, non-fatal MI, repeat revascularizations including repeated percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary bypass grafting, cerebrovascular accident and rehospitalizations. This research was supported by a fund by Research of Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Results
During the primary PCI, potent antiplatelet agents such as prasugrel and ticagrelor were used in 2342 (38.4%). PCI was performed through transradial approach in 1490 (25.2%). Thrombus aspiration and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) examination was done in 2204 (36.1%) and 1079 (18.1%), respectively. Glycoprotein IIB-IIIA inhibitor was administered in 1295 (21.7%). Among them, potent antiplatelet agents, transradial intervention, IVUS, and thrombus aspiration significantly reduced MACCEs at 1 year. Glycoprotein IIB-IIIA inhibitor was not effective to improved clinical outcome. In Cox-proportional hazards model, potent antiplatelet agents (hazard ratio 0.82, 95% confidence interval 0.67–0.99; p=0.045) and transradial intervention (hazard ratio 0.61, 95% confidence interval 0.47–0.78; p<0.001) was an independent predictor of MACCEs after adjusting for confounding variables. Combined use of potent antiplatelet agents and transradial intervention (hazard ratio 0.54; 95% confidence interval 0.37–0.80; p=0.002) substantially reduced MACCEs at 1 year.
Conclusion
Among evidence based procedures during the primary PCI, combined use of potent antiplatelet agents and transradial intervention was optimal procedural strategy to improve clinical outcome.

Abstract
Background A fragmented QRS complex (fQRS) is caused by conduction abnormalities of the ventricle secondary to myocardial ischemia and/or scar in patients with myocardial infarction. However, the implications of the fQRS in the development of coronary artery disease with myocardial ischemia in those without a scar remain unknown. Methods We studied electrocardiograms (ECGs) obtained from 150 patients (60.5 ± 8.5 years, 102 men) with myocardial ischemia, which was confirmed by performing both, a nuclear exercise stress test and coronary angiography. We also studied ECGs obtained from 601 patients (58.5 ± 10.0 years, 315 men) who showed a negative nuclear exercise stress test (control group). Patients in whom the nuclear exercise stress test showed a myocardial scar were excluded. Results An fQRS was more commonly observed in patients with myocardial ischemia (n = 48, 32.0%) than in the control group (n = 133, 22.1%) (P = 0.011). The sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative predictive values of fQRS in diagnosing myocardial ischemia were 32.0, 77.9, 26.5, and 82.1%, respectively. The fQRS (odds ratio 1.580, 95% confidence interval 1.020‐2.446, P = 0.040) was an independent predictor of myocardial ischemia after adjusting for age, sex, current smoking habits, ST‐T changes on ECG, as well as histories of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. Moreover, the fQRS showed an incremental prognostic value over conventional risk factors (χ2 = 5, P = 0.032) and over a combination of conventional factors and ST‐T changes (χ2 = 9, P = 0.014). Conclusions The fQRS is a moderately sensitive and independent predictor of myocardial ischemia.

Abstract
Chrysanthemums are well known for their esthetic and medicinal values. Characterization of chrysanthemums is vital for their conservation and management as well as for understanding their genetic relationships. We found 12 simple sequence repeat markers (SSRs) of 100 designed primers to be polymorphic. These novel SSR markers were used to evaluate 95 accessions of chrysanthemums (3 indigenous and 92 cultivated accessions). Two hundred alleles were identified, with an average of 16.7 alleles per locus. KNUCRY-77 gave the highest polymorphic information content value (0.879), while KNUCRY-10 gave the lowest (0.218). Similar patterns of grouping were observed with a distance-based dendrogram developed using PowerMarker and model-based clustering with Structure. Three clusters with some admixtures were identified by model-based clustering. These newly developed SSR markers will be useful for further studies of chrysanthemums, such as taxonomy and marker-assisted selection breeding.

Abstract
Topological materials, including topological insulators, magnets with Skyrmions and ferroelectrics with topological vortices, have recently attracted phenomenal attention in the materials science community. Complex patterns of ferroelectric domains in hexagonal REMnO(3) (RE: rare earths) turn out to be associated with the macroscopic emergence of Z(2)×Z(3) symmetry. The results of our depth profiling of crystals with a self-poling tendency near surfaces reveal that the partial dislocation (i.e., wall-wall) interaction, not the interaction between vortices and antivortices, is primarily responsible for topological condensation through the macroscopic breaking of the Z(2) symmetry.

Abstract
We discovered stripe patterns of trimerization-ferroelectric domains in hexagonal REMnO(3) (RE=Ho,···,Lu) crystals (grown below ferroelectric transition temperatures (T(c)), reaching up to 1435 °C), in contrast with the vortex patterns in YMnO(3). These stripe patterns roughen with the appearance of numerous loop domains through thermal annealing just below T(c), but the stripe domain patterns turn to vortex-antivortex domain patterns through a freezing process when crystals cross T(c) even though the phase transition appears to not be Kosterlitz-Thouless-type. The experimental systematics are compared with the results of our six-state clock model simulation and also the Kibble-Zurek mechanism for trapped topological defects.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a representative autoimmune disease, which is frequently associated with lymphopenia. Biobreeding (BB) rat is a typical animal model which develops autoimmune diseases with lymphopenia which results from a frame-shift mutation in the immune-associated nucleotide (IAN) 5 gene. IAN5 is involved in the regulation of T-cell activation and survival. To examine the association of IAN5 gene with SLE, we scrutinised the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IAN5 gene. We conducted a case-control study where 132 SLE patients, 505 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, and 546 controls were genotyped for four SNPs in the IAN5 gene. Two SNPs (+2071C > T and +2677G > A) were associated with susceptibility to SLE (P = 0.040 and 0.045, respectively), and -4432G > A SNP was associated with the development of leukopenia (P = 0.028) and the requirement of steroid pulse therapy (P = 0.040) in SLE patients. Haplotype analyses showed that Ht1(CTCG) was associated with susceptibility to SLE (P = 0.036), and Ht4(ACCG), Ht5(ACTA) and Ht6(GCCG) were associated with the development of nephritis (P = 0.017, 0.019, 0.022, respectively). In conclusion, the IAN5 polymorphisms were associated with susceptibility to SLE and the development of clinical disease manifestations in a strictly Korean population.

Abstract
We observed two types of reversible resistance switching (RS) effects in a NiO film: memory RS at low temperature and threshold RS at high temperature. We were able to control the type of RS effects by thermal cycling. These phenomena were explained using a new dynamic percolation model that can describe the rupture and formation of conducting filaments. We showed that the RS effects are governed by the thermal stability of the filaments, which arise from competition between Joule heating and thermal dissipation. This work provides us understandings on basic mechanism of the RS effects and their interrelation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Disruption of the vascular supply to the bone and subsequent hypoxia has been implicated in the pathogenesis of osteonecrosis (ON) of the femoral head (ONFH). To evaluate the genetic effect of HIF1alpha, a key transcription factor in controlling hypoxia condition, on ONFH, we analyzed HIF1alpha polymorphism and its genetic association with ONFH. METHODS We directly sequenced the HIF1alpha gene in 24 Korean individuals and identified four sequence variants. Four polymorphisms (-2755C>A, +41224T>C, +45319C>T, +51610C>T) were genotyped in ONFH (n=384). ONFH patients were divided into three subgroups based on etiological factors: idiopathic (129 cases), steroid (59 cases) and alcohol (196 cases) ON groups. RESULTS We found that the allele frequency of -2755C>A and the genotype frequencies of +41224T>C and +51610C>T were significantly associated with idiopathic ONFH in men (P=0.0409, 0.0113, 0.0269, respectively). In addition, haplotype (CTCC) of HIF1alpha was also significantly associated with idiopathic ONFH in men (P=0.017). CONCLUSIONS We found that HIF1alpha polymorphisms are associated with idiopathic ONFH in men. These results suggest that variations in HIF1alpha may play an important role in the pathogenesis and risk factor for ONFH.

Abstract
Using synchronized Dictyostelium discoideum Ax-2 cells and the differential display method, a mitochondrial gene cluster (referred to as differentiation-associated gene 3; dia3) was isolated as one of the genes expressed specifically during the transition of Ax-2 cells from growth to differentiation. The dia3 gene encodes for a mitochondrial protein cluster (NADH dehydrogenase (NAD) subunit 11, 5, ribosomal protein S4 (RPS4), RPS2, and NAD4L). Northern blot analysis using nonsynchronized Ax-2 cells has shown that the dia3 RNA of about 8 kb is scarcely expressed during the vegetative growth phase, and the maximal expression was attained at 2 h after starvation. To analyze the gene function of dia3, we tried inactivation of rps4 by means of homologous recombination and obtained several transformed clones showing mitochondrial DNA heteroplasmy. The transformed cells grew normally in nutrient medium, but their development after starvation was greatly impaired, thus resulting in the failure of many cells to differentiate. In this connection, the cAMP receptor 1 (car1) expression, which is one of the earliest markers of differentiation, was found to be markedly reduced in the rps4-inactivated cells.

Abstract
In Dictyostelium discoideum Ax-2 cells, a specific point (PS-point) in the cell cycle from which they initiate differentiation in response to starvation has been specified. Using synchronized Ax-2 cells and the differential display method, a novel gene (differentiation-associated gene 2; dia2) was isolated as one of the genes expressed specifically during the shift of Ax-2 cells from growth to differentiation. The dia2 gene codes a lysine- and leucine-rich protein with a predicted molecular mass of 16.9 kDa. Northern blot analysis has shown that the dia2 mRNA, of 0.7 kb, accumulates in differentiating cells starved just before the PS-point, while there is no detectable expression in vegetatively growing cells. Antisense-mediated gene inactivation of dia2 greatly inhibited the progress of differentiation, presumably through the reduced expression of cAMP receptor 1 (car1). Thus, the DIA2 expression was suggested to have an essential role in the initiation of differentiation, closely relating to the cAMP signaling system.

Abstract
A proteasome subunit-1 gene (DAPS-1) was isolated as one preferentially expressed during the transition from growth to differentiation in Dictyostelium discoideum cells, using the differential display method. The DAPS-1 cDNA sequence with a length of 882 bp encodes a protein (Mr. 23.4 kDa) consisting of 213 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of DAPS-1 showed 61% and 58% identity to the proteasome subunit Y of Xenopus laevis and Homo sapiens, respectively and 48% and 47% identity to the proteasome subunit LMP2 of Homo sapiens and Orizas latipes, respectively. Northern analysis revealed that a 1.0 kb of DAPS-1 mRNA is predominantly expressed during the early stage of differentiation induced by starvation. This seems to indicate that the DAPS-1 protein may be involved in proteolysis coupled with active exchange of the cellular protein composition during the phase-shift of Dictyostelium cells from the proliferative to differentiated state.

A pulmonary time-activity curve derived from the right lung showed a pattern typical of a large left-to-right shunt, whereas that from the left lung was normal. Increased systemic arterial flow to the lateral right chest was noted in early dynamic images. Subsequent studies revealed that this flow and the abnormal time-activity curve of the right lung were due to systemic arterial supply to metastatic pleural cancer, originating from the kidney. The authors conclude that special caution should be undertaken in the interpretation of the radionuclide angiocardiography for determining left-to-right cardiac shunts, especially in those showing a asymmetric pulmonary time-activity curve.

Abstract
Tl-201 imaging is useful in the diagnostic work-up of tumors. However, Tl-201 uptake is not specific for tumor and is also noted in other conditions. A case is described in which Tl-201 was taken up by a keloid.

Abstract
UNLABELLED There are currently four common types of stress used with thallium-201 imaging in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease and risk assessment. The objective of this study was to examine the thallium biokinetics during exercise, adenosine, dipyridamole and dobutamine stress testing in 15 healthy volunteers. METHODS Each subject underwent planar 201Tl imaging during maximal treadmill exercise testing, adenosine infusion (140 micrograms/kg/min for 6 min), dipyridamole infusion (142 micrograms/kg/min for 4 min) and dobutamine infusion (40 micrograms/kg/min). RESULTS Absolute myocardial thallium activity was greater after pharmacologic testing than exercise, (p < 0.001 each). Thus, the activity was 505 counts/pixel with adenosine, 491 counts/pixel with dipyridamole, 517 counts/pixel with dobutamine and 409 counts/pixel with exercise. The myocardial thallium clearance was lower with pharmacologic testing than exercise; 9.7%/hr with adenosine, 9.9%/hr with dipyridamole, 11.3%/hr with dobutamine and 13%/hr with exercise (p < 0.01 each). The thallium uptake and clearance in the lung and liver were also greater with pharmacologic stress testing than exercise (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Thus, thallium biokinetics are different during pharmacologic stress testing with adenosine, dipyridamole and dobutamine than during exercise. Diagnostic criteria for quantitative analysis of myocardial perfusion imaging must therefore be specific for the type of stress used.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to examine the independent and incremental prognostic value of exercise single-photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) thallium imaging in patients with angiographically defined coronary artery disease. BACKGROUND Previous studies showed the importance of exercise thallium-201 in risk stratification. However, most of these studies used planar imaging techniques. METHODS Follow-up data were obtained in 316 medically treated patients with coronary artery disease. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to examine the independent and incremental prognostic values of clinical, exercise, thallium and cardiac catheterization data. RESULTS There were 35 events (cardiac death or nonfatal myocardial infarction) at a mean follow-up time of 28 months. Univariate analysis showed that gender (chi-square = 5.1), exercise work load (chi-square = 3.1), extent of coronary artery disease and left ventricular ejection fraction (chi-square = 14.8) and thallium variables (chi-square = 22.7) were prognostically important. The thallium data provided incremental prognostic value to catheterization data (chi-square = 33.7, p < 0.01). The extent of the perfusion abnormality was the single best predictor of prognosis (chi-square = 14). Patients with a large perfusion abnormality had a worse prognosis than that of patients with a mild or no abnormality (Mantel-Cox statistics = 10.6, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS In medically treated patients with coronary artery disease, exercise SPECT thallium imaging provides independent and incremental prognostic information even when catheterization data are available. The extent of the perfusion abnormality is the single most important prognostic predictor.

Abstract
Physical exertions are related to sudden cardiac death following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Abnormalities in the autonomic modulation during exercise were noted in animals with AMI that were susceptible to potentially lethal arrhythmias. This study was done to evaluate the changes in the autonomic activity during exercise and recovery in AMI patients with good exercise capacity, using spectral analysis of R-R intervals of electrocardiogram (ECG). Symptom-limited treadmill exercise test was done on 17 patients of AMI with mild heart failure (in 7-10 days after the attack) and 21 healthy controls. The exercise was divided into 7 stages; rest, early exercise, mid-exercise, peak exercise, early recovery, mid-recovery, and late recovery. Power spectral analysis of R-R intervals of ECG was performed for each stage. Low frequency (0.04-0.15 Hz) and high frequency (0.15-0.40 Hz) powers, and their ratio were obtained. These parameters were observed throughout the stages in both groups. The trend of their changes during exercise and recovery was essentially the same for both groups; high and low frequency powers progressively decreased during exercise and abruptly increased during early recovery, but did not return to the values at those of rest until 9 minutes into the recovery. When the parameters were compared between the groups, there was a significantly greater decrease of high frequency power during the early exercise (p < 0.05), and a higher ratio of low to high frequency power during the early recovery (p < 0.05) in the patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to examine the ability of exercise single-photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) thallium imaging to identify high risk women with left main or three-vessel coronary artery disease using a stepwise discriminant analysis. BACKGROUND Previous studies have used statistical methods to identify high risk men with coronary artery disease. Only limited data are available in women. METHODS Exercise SPECT thallium imaging and coronary arteriography were performed for evaluation of chest pain in 243 women. Group 1 comprised 58 women with left main or three-vessel coronary disease and group 2 comprised 185 women with no or one- or two-vessel disease. Stepwise discriminant analysis was used to determine predictors of left main or three-vessel disease. RESULTS On univariate analysis, women in group 1 were older (p < 0.03) and had a lower exercise work load (p < 0.02), lower exercise heart rate (p < 0.004), higher prevalence rate of diabetes mellitus (p < 0.0003) and more multivessel thallium abnormality (p < 0.0001) compared with women in group 2. On multivariate analysis, only multivessel thallium abnormality (F = 43) and exercise heart rate (F = 6) were independent predictors of left main or three-vessel coronary disease. A model based on these two variables separated the women into three risk groups: 99 patients with 9%, 70 patients with 23% and 74 patients with 45% prevalence of left main or three-vessel disease (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS High risk women with left main or three-vessel coronary disease can be identified by exercise SPECT thallium imaging.
