Abstract
Tricuspid valve disease is an often underrecognized clinical problem that is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, patients will often present late in their disease course with severe right-sided heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, and life-limiting symptoms that have few durable treatment options. Traditionally, the only treatment for tricuspid valve disease has been medical therapy or surgery; however, there have been increasing interest and success with the use of transcatheter tricuspid valve therapies over the past several years to treat patients with previously limited therapeutic options. The tricuspid valve is complex anatomically, lying adjacent to important anatomic structures such as the right coronary artery and the atrioventricular node, and is the passageway for permanent pacemaker leads into the right ventricle. In addition, the mechanism of tricuspid pathology varies widely between patients, which can be due to primary, secondary, or a combination of causes, meaning that it is not possible for 1 type of device to be suitable for treatment of all cases of tricuspid valve disease. To best visualize the pathology, several modalities of advanced cardiac imaging are often required, including transthoracic echocardiography, transesophageal echocardiography, cardiac computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, to best visualize the pathology. This detailed imaging provides important information for choosing the ideal transcatheter treatment options for patients with tricuspid valve disease, taking into account the need for the lifetime management of the patient. This review highlights the important background, anatomic considerations, therapeutic options, and future directions with regard to treatment of tricuspid valve disease.

Abstract
In the past two decades, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has transformed the management of aortic stenosis and has become the standard of care regardless of surgical risk levels. Advances in transcatheter valve design across newer generations, improved imaging, greater operator expertise, and technical enhancements have collectively contributed to increased safety and a decline in procedural complications over this timeframe. The application of TAVR has progressively expanded to include younger patients with lower risks, who have longer life expectancies. This article offers an up-to-date review of the latest innovations in transcatheter delivery systems, devices, and its possible future indications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prior studies of therapeutic-dose anticoagulation in patients with COVID-19 have reported conflicting results. OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the safety and effectiveness of therapeutic-dose anticoagulation in noncritically ill patients with COVID-19. METHODS Patients hospitalized with COVID-19 not requiring intensive care unit treatment were randomized to prophylactic-dose enoxaparin, therapeutic-dose enoxaparin, or therapeutic-dose apixaban. The primary outcome was the 30-day composite of all-cause mortality, requirement for intensive care unit-level of care, systemic thromboembolism, or ischemic stroke assessed in the combined therapeutic-dose groups compared with the prophylactic-dose group. RESULTS Between August 26, 2020, and September 19, 2022, 3,398 noncritically ill patients hospitalized with COVID-19 were randomized to prophylactic-dose enoxaparin (n = 1,141), therapeutic-dose enoxaparin (n = 1,136), or therapeutic-dose apixaban (n = 1,121) at 76 centers in 10 countries. The 30-day primary outcome occurred in 13.2% of patients in the prophylactic-dose group and 11.3% of patients in the combined therapeutic-dose groups (HR: 0.85; 95% CI: 0.69-1.04; P = 0.11). All-cause mortality occurred in 7.0% of patients treated with prophylactic-dose enoxaparin and 4.9% of patients treated with therapeutic-dose anticoagulation (HR: 0.70; 95% CI: 0.52-0.93; P = 0.01), and intubation was required in 8.4% vs 6.4% of patients, respectively (HR: 0.75; 95% CI: 0.58-0.98; P = 0.03). Results were similar in the 2 therapeutic-dose groups, and major bleeding in all 3 groups was infrequent. CONCLUSIONS Among noncritically ill patients hospitalized with COVID-19, the 30-day primary composite outcome was not significantly reduced with therapeutic-dose anticoagulation compared with prophylactic-dose anticoagulation. However, fewer patients who were treated with therapeutic-dose anticoagulation required intubation and fewer died (FREEDOM COVID [FREEDOM COVID Anticoagulation Strategy]; NCT04512079).

Abstract
AIMS Complex percutaneous coronary intervention (C-PCI) is associated with an increased risk of ischemic and bleeding complications. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of a 1-3-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) regimen followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after C-PCI. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized trials comparing a 1-3-month DAPT regimen followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy with standard (≥12 months) DAPT in patients undergoing C-PCI. C-PCI criteria and the co-primary bleeding and ischemic outcomes were determined according to each trial. Secondary outcomes included major bleeding, all-cause death, myocardial infarction, and stent thrombosis. All outcomes were evaluated at 12 months after randomization. We used hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) as a metric of choice for treatment effects with random-effects models. Among 8299 screened studies, five randomized trials fulfilled the eligibility criteria. In the pooled population of 34 615 patients, 8818 (25.5%) underwent C-PCI. As compared with standard DAPT, a 1-3-month DAPT regimen followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy reduced the bleeding risk in C-PCI (HR:0.66, 95% CI:0.44-0.98) and non-C-PCI (HR:0.60, 95% CI:0.45-0.79) patients (p-interaction = 0.735). Furthermore, the risk for the primary ischemic endpoint was similar in patients randomized to either arm, with significant effect modification by PCI complexity showing an enhanced benefit of 1-3-month DAPT in patients undergoing C-PCI (C-PCI, HR:0.69, 95% CI:0.48-1.00; non-C-PCI, HR:1.04, 95% CI:0.84-1.30; p-interaction = 0.028). CONCLUSION As compared with a standard DAPT, a 1-3-month DAPT regimen followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy reduced bleeding complications after C-PCI without increasing the risk of ischemic events.

Abstract
AIMS Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have cardiovascular (CV) benefits in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Whether these medications improve CV outcomes irrespective of heart failure history or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in HFrEF remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS All randomized, placebo-controlled trials of SGLT-2 inhibitors reporting similar CV outcomes were searched in PubMed from 1 January 2010 to 1 October 2021. The primary outcome was the composite of hospitalization for heart failure or CV death. Secondary outcomes included all-cause mortality. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used as effect estimates and calculated with a random-effects model. Data from 11 trials and a total of 66 957 patients (n = 36 758 SGLT-2 group, n = 30 199 placebo group) were included. SGLT-2 inhibitors reduced the risk of hospitalization for heart failure or CV death in patients with (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.71-0.80) and without (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.68-0.86; Pinteraction = 0.69) heart failure. Patients with (HR 0.87, 95% CI 0.80-0.95) and without (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.73-0.95; Pinteraction = 0.67) heart failure treated with SGLT-2 inhibitors had a reduction in all-cause mortality. Reduction in the primary outcome was consistently observed in HFrEF patients with (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.59-0.78) and without (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.71-0.99; Pinteraction = 0.13) severely reduced LVEF, and in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction patients (HR 0.80, 95% CI 0.70-0.92; Pinteraction = 0.65). CONCLUSION SGLT-2 inhibitors improved CV outcomes irrespective of heart failure history or type, and severity of LVEF reduction.

Abstract
The introduction and subsequent iterations of drug-eluting stent technologies have substantially improved the efficacy and safety of percutaneous coronary interventions. However, the incidence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and the resultant need for repeated revascularization still occur at a rate of 1%-2% per year. Given that millions of drug-eluting stents are implanted each year around the globe, ISR can be considered as a pathologic entity of public health significance. The mechanisms of ISR are multifactorial. Since the first description of the angiographic patterns of ISR, the advent of intracoronary imaging has further elucidated the mechanisms and patterns of ISR. The armamentarium and treatment strategies of ISR have also evolved over time. Currently, an individualized approach using intracoronary imaging to characterize the underlying substrate of ISR is recommended. In this paper, we comprehensively reviewed the incidence, mechanisms, and imaging characterization of ISR and propose a contemporary treatment algorithm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal perioperative management of antiplatelet therapy (APT) therapy in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery (NCS) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unclear. We sought to identify predictors of APT cessation in a real-world cohort of patients undergoing NCS within 1 year of PCI. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing PCI at a tertiary center between 2011 and 2018 were prospectively enrolled. Perioperative interruption of APT was defined as cessation of either aspirin or P2Y12 inhibitor between 1 and 14 days prior to NCS. Predictors of APT discontinuation were identified by multivariable Cox regression with stepwise selection of candidate variables. RESULTS A total of 1092 surgeries corresponding to 747 patients were identified. Overall, there were 487 (44.6%) preoperative antiplatelet interruptions: discontinuation of either P2Y12 inhibitors only (47.4%), aspirin only (7.9%), or both agents (44.7%). Both patient-specific risk factors (prior stroke, lower BMI, anemia, MI) and procedure specific risk factors (chronic total occlusions, multivessel disease, drug-eluting stent use) affected decisions regarding APT cessation. Likelihood of APT cessation increased in higher-risk surgeries and in patients on more potent P2Y12 inhibitors (ticagrelor/prasugrel vs clopidogrel) whereas those undergoing NCS <90 days post PCI were less likely to have cessation of APT. CONCLUSION In this contemporary cohort of post-PCI patients undergoing NCS, patient-, angiographic- and surgery-specific factors all affected decision-making regarding APT cessation. Our findings reflective of real-world practice, highlight the importance of a multidisciplinary team approach to individualize decision making in these patients.

Abstract
Inflammation and procedural complexity are individually associated with adverse outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to evaluate the association of high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) with adverse events according to PCI complexity. We included patients with available hsCRP levels who underwent PCI at our center from 2012 to 2017. We compared patients with hsCRP ≥3 versus <3 mg/L. Complex PCI was defined as having ≥1 of the following: ≥3 different target vessels, ≥3 lesions treated, ≥3 stents implanted, bifurcation lesion treated with 2 stents, chronic total occlusion as target lesion, or total stent length >60 mm. The primary end point was major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) (composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, or target vessel revascularization) at 1 year. A total of 11,979 patients were included, of which 2,840 (24%) underwent complex PCI. In those, 767 (27%) had hsCRP ≥3 mg/L. The 1-year incidence of MACE was 6% (noncomplex PCI, low hsCRP), 10% (noncomplex PCI, high hsCRP), 10% (complex PCI, low hsCRP), and 15% (complex PCI, high hsCRP). Overall, hsCRP ≥3 mg/L was associated with an increased risk of MACE compared with hsCRP <3 mg/L; this was independent of the number of complex PCI features: 0 (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.53; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27 to 1.86), 1 (adjusted HR 1.77; 95% CI 1.21 to 2.60), or ≥2 (adjusted HR 1.21; 95% CI 0.80 to 1.83) (pinteraction = 0.42). In conclusion, in patients who underwent PCI, elevated hsCRP is associated with an increased risk of ischemic events. The effect of elevated hsCRP on cardiovascular risk is consistent regardless of PCI complexity.

Abstract
Interatrial block (IAB) is an electrocardiographic pattern describing the conduction delay between the right and left atria. IAB is classified into 3 degrees of block that correspond to decreasing conduction in the region of Bachmann's bundle. Although initially considered benign in nature, specific subsets of IAB have been associated with atrial arrhythmias, elevated thromboembolic stroke risk, cognitive impairment, and mortality. As the pathophysiologic relationships between IAB and stroke are reinforced, investigation has now turned to the potential benefit of early detection, atrial imaging, cardiovascular risk factor modification, antiarrhythmic pharmacotherapy, and stroke prevention with oral anticoagulation. This review provides a contemporary overview of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of IAB, with a focus on future directions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the TWILIGHT trial, ticagrelor monotherapy after a short course of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) was shown to be a safe bleeding avoidance strategy in high-risk patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents (DES). AIMS The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ticagrelor monotherapy after three-month DAPT in patients undergoing PCI, according to DES type. METHODS In the current sub-analysis from TWILIGHT, patients were stratified into three groups based on DES type: durable polymer everolimus-eluting stents (DP-EES), durable polymer zotarolimus-eluting stents (DP-ZES), and biodegradable polymer DES (BP-DES). Bleeding and ischaemic outcomes were assessed at one year after randomisation. RESULTS Out of 5,769 patients, 3,014 (52.2%) had DP-EES, 1,350 (23.4%) had DP-ZES and 1,405 (24.4%) had BP-DES. Compared with ticagrelor plus aspirin, ticagrelor monotherapy had significantly lower BARC type 2, 3 or 5 bleeding compared with DAPT; DP-EES (3.8% vs 6.7%; HR 0.56, 95% CI: 0.41-0.78), DP-ZES (4.6% vs 6.9%; HR 0.66, 95% CI: 0.42-1.04) and BP-DES (4.2% vs 7.9%; HR 0.52, 95% CI: 0.33-0.81; pinteraction=0.76). Ticagrelor monotherapy resulted in similar rates of death, MI, or stroke: DP-EES (4.2% vs 4.3%; HR 0.97; 95% CI: 0.68-1.37); DP-ZES (4.1% vs 3.1%; HR 1.32; 95% CI: 0.75-2.33); BP-DES (3.9% vs 4.2%; HR 0.92; 95% CI: 0.54-1.55; pinteraction=0.60). In both unadjusted and covariate-adjusted analyses, DES type was not associated with any differences in ischaemic or bleeding complications. CONCLUSIONS As compared with ticagrelor plus aspirin, ticagrelor monotherapy after a short DAPT duration lowered bleeding complications without increasing the ischaemic risk, irrespective of DES type. We observed no significant differences among DES types.

Abstract
The incidence of left ventricular (LV) thrombus following acute myocardial infarction has markedly declined in recent decades caused by advancements in reperfusion and antithrombotic therapies. Despite this, embolic events remain the most feared complication of LV thrombus necessitating systemic anticoagulation. Mechanistically, LV thrombus development depends on Virchow's triad (ie, endothelial injury from myocardial infarction, blood stasis from LV dysfunction, and hypercoagulability triggered by inflammation, with each of these elements representing potential therapeutic targets). Diagnostic modalities include transthoracic echocardiography with or without ultrasound-enhancing agents and cardiac magnetic resonance. Most LV thrombi develop within the first 2 weeks post-acute myocardial infarction, and the role of surveillance imaging appears limited. Vitamin K antagonists remain the mainstay of therapy because the efficacy of direct oral anticoagulants is less well established. Only meager data support the routine use of prophylactic anticoagulation, even in high-risk patients.

Abstract
AIMS The effect of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol-lowering therapy with alirocumab or evolocumab on individual clinical efficacy and safety endpoints remains unclear. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of alirocumab and evolocumab in patients with dyslipidaemia or atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing treatment with alirocumab or evolocumab vs. placebo or other lipid-lowering therapies up to March 2018. Primary efficacy endpoints were all-cause death, cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke. We estimated risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) using random effect models. We included 39 RCTs comprising 66 478 patients of whom 35 896 were treated with proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors (14 639 with alirocumab and 21 257 with evolocumab) and 30 582 with controls. Mean weighted follow-up time across trials was 2.3 years with an exposure time of 150 617 patient-years. Overall, the effects of PCSK9 inhibition on all-cause death and cardiovascular death were not statistically significant (P = 0.15 and P = 0.34, respectively). Proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 inhibitors were associated with lower risk of MI (1.49 vs. 1.93 per 100 patient-year; RR 0.80, 95% CI 0.74-0.86; I 2 = 0%; P < 0.0001), ischaemic stroke (0.44 vs. 0.58 per 100 patient-year; RR 0.78, 95% CI 0.67-0.89; I 2 = 0%; P = 0.0005), and coronary revascularization (2.16 vs. 2.64 per 100 patient-year; RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.78-0.89; I 2 = 0%; P < 0.0001), compared with the control group. Use of these PCSK9 inhibitors was not associated with increased risk of neurocognitive adverse events (P = 0.91), liver enzymes elevations (P = 0.34), rhabdomyolysis (P = 0.58), or new-onset diabetes mellitus (P = 0.97). CONCLUSION Proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 inhibition with alirocumab or evolocumab was associated with lower risk of MI, stroke, and coronary revascularization, with favourable safety profile.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate and compare characteristics and clinical outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among target vessel types in patients with a prior coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. BACKGROUND Patients with a prior CABG often require repeat revascularization with PCI. Graft PCI has been associated with worse outcomes compared to native vessel PCI, yet the optimal PCI strategy in prior CABG patients remains unknown. METHODS We stratified prior CABG patients who underwent PCI at a tertiary-care center between 2009 and 2017 by target vessel type: native vessel, venous graft, and arterial graft. The primary outcome of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, or target vessel revascularization up to 1 year post-PCI. RESULTS Prior CABG patients (n = 3983) represented 19.5% of all PCI interventions during the study period. PCI was most frequently performed on native vessels (n = 2928, 73.5%) followed by venous (n = 883, 22.2%) and arterial grafts (n = 172, 4.3%). Procedural success and complications were similar among the groups; however, slow- and no-reflow phenomenon was more common in venous graft PCI compared to native vessel PCI (OR 4.78; 95% CI 2.56-8.95; p < 0.001). At 1 year, there were no significant differences in MACE or in its individual components. CONCLUSIONS Target vessel choice did not appear to affect MACE at 1 year in a large cohort of patients with prior CABG undergoing PCI. Whether PCI of surgical grafts versus native arteries truly results in similar outcomes warrants further investigation in randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the prognostic impact of anemia in patients randomized to bivalirudin or unfractionated heparin (UFH) during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). BACKGROUND Whether the periprocedural use of bivalirudin as compared with UFH in anemic patients undergoing TAVR has an impact on outcomes remains unknown. METHODS The BRAVO-3 trial compared the use of bivalirudin versus UFH in 802 high risk patients undergoing transfemoral TAVR for severe symptomatic aortic stenosis. Patients were stratified according to the presence (defined as hemoglobin levels <13 g/dl in men and <12 g/dl in women) or absence of anemia. The primary outcomes were net adverse cardiac events (NACE; a composite of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, or bleeding) and major bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium ≥3b) at 30 days. RESULTS Among 798 patients with available baseline hemoglobin levels, 427 (54%) were anemic of whom 221 (52%) received bivalirudin. There were no significant differences in NACE and major bleeding at 30 days between patients with and without anemia, irrespective of the type of anticoagulant used (pinteraction = 0.71 for NACE, pinteraction = 1.0 for major bleeding). However, anemic patients had a higher risk of major vascular complications (adjusted OR 2.43, 95% CI 1.42-4.16, p = 0.001), and acute kidney injury (adjusted OR 1.74, 95% CI 1.16-2.59, p = 0.007) compared to non-anemic patients at 30 days. CONCLUSIONS Anemia was not associated with a higher risk of NACE or major bleeding at 30 days after TAVR without modification of the treatment effects of periprocedural anticoagulation with bivalirudin versus UFH.

Abstract
Background COVID-19 has been associated with an increased incidence of ischemic stroke. The use echocardiography to characterize the risk of ischemic stroke in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 has not been explored. Methods We conducted a retrospective study of 368 patients hospitalized between 3/1/2020 and 5/31/2020 who had laboratory-confirmed infection with SARS-CoV-2 and underwent transthoracic echocardiography during hospitalization. Patients were categorized according to the presence of ischemic stroke on cerebrovascular imaging following echocardiography. Ischemic stroke was identified in 49 patients (13.3%). We characterized the risk of ischemic stroke using a novel composite risk score of clinical and echocardiographic variables: age <55, systolic blood pressure >140 mmHg, anticoagulation prior to admission, left atrial dilation and left ventricular thrombus. Results Patients with ischemic stroke had no difference in biomarkers of inflammation and hypercoagulability compared to those without ischemic stroke. Patients with ischemic stroke had significantly more left atrial dilation and left ventricular thrombus (48.3% vs 27.9%, p = 0.04; 4.2% vs 0.7%, p = 0.03). The unadjusted odds ratio of the composite novel COVID-19 Ischemic Stroke Risk Score for the likelihood of ischemic stroke was 4.1 (95% confidence interval 1.4-16.1). The AUC for the risk score was 0.70. Conclusions The COVID-19 Ischemic Stroke Risk Score utilizes clinical and echocardiographic parameters to robustly estimate the risk of ischemic stroke in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and supports the use of echocardiography to characterize the risk of ischemic stroke in patients hospitalized with COVID-19.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors emerged as a new groundbreaking therapy for patients with heart failure. Recent evidence showed significant benefits in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), regardless of diabetic status. Whether these medications also improve outcomes in patients without a history of heart failure or with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains unknown.
Purpose
We sought to perform an updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effects of SGLT-2 inhibitors on cardiovascular (CV) outcomes according to the history and type of heart failure.
Methods
All randomized, placebo-controlled trials of SGLT-2 inhibitors reporting similar CV outcomes were evaluated for inclusion. PubMed was searched from January 1, 2010 to February 1, 2021. Articles were independently reviewed and selected by two reviewers. The primary outcome was the composite of first hospitalization for heart failure and CV death. Secondary outcomes included its single components and all-cause mortality. Pooled hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used as effect estimates and calculated with a random-effects model. Heterogeneity was assessed with the I2 index, and random-effects meta-regression was used to assess the interaction between treatment effect and history of heart failure and type of heart failure (HFrEF vs. HFpEF).
Results
Data from eight trials and a total of 56,665 patients (n=31,609 in SGLT-2 group, n=25,056 in placebo group) were included. Five studies enrolled high-risk patients with diabetes mellitus, while 3 studies enrolled patients with symptomatic heart failure. SGLT-2 inhibitors reduced the risk of first hospitalization for heart failure and CV death in patients with (HR 0.75 95% CI 0.70–0.81) and without (HR 0.78 95% CI 0.67–0.90; Figure 1) a history of heart failure. Similarly, patients with (HR 0.85 95% CI 0.78–0.93) or without (HR 0.85 95% CI 0.74–0.98) a history of heart failure treated with SGLT-2 inhibitors had a significant reduction in all-cause mortality. SGLT-2 inhibitors reduced the risk of CV death regardless of the history of heart failure, although the reduction was border-line statistically significant in patients without a history of heart failure (HR 0.81 95% CI 0.66–1.00; Figure 2). All subgroup interaction testing between patients with and without a history of heart failure was negative for all the above endpoints. Among patients with HFpEF, SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with a nonsignificant trend towards reduced risk of the primary outcome (HR 0.80 95% CI 0.63–1.02).
Conclusions
SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly improve CV outcomes in patients with or without history of heart failure, and this effect seems to be consistent among those with HFrEF and HFpEF.

Abstract
Background Although population-based studies have demonstrated racial heterogeneity in coronary artery calcium (CAC) burden, the degree to which such associations extend to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) cohorts remains poorly characterized. We sought to evaluate the associations between race/ethnicity and CAC in a PCI population. Methods This single center retrospective study analyzed 1025 patients with prior CAC who underwent PCI between January 1, 2012 and May 15, 2020. Patients were grouped as non-Hispanic White (NHW, N = 779), non-Hispanic Black (NHB, N = 81) and Hispanic (H, N = 165). Associations between race and CAC (Agatston units) were examined using negative binomial regression while adjusting for baseline parameters. Results Among the 1025 patients (mean age 65.8, 70% male) who underwent PCI, NHW, NHB, and H populations had median CAC scores of 760, 500, and 462 Agatston units, respectively (p < 0.0001). Hispanic patients displayed a higher burden of diabetes mellitus, hypertension and hyperlipidemia compared with other groups. After adjusting for baseline differences and compared with NHW, the inverse association between Hispanic and CAC persisted (β = -324.1, p < 0.0001) whereas differences were not significant for NHB (β = -51.5, p = 0.67). Conclusions Despite a higher risk clinical phenotype, Hispanic patients who underwent PCI had significantly lower CAC compared with non-Hispanic patients. Thus, current risk stratification models using universalized CAC scores may underestimate the risk for the Hispanic population. Race/ethnicity-informed CAC thresholds may better guide clinical decisions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Women with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) generally present with more comorbidities and experience worse clinical outcomes compared with males. However, it is unclear whether this represents genuine sex-related difference or stems from clinical, procedural and socioeconomic factors. METHODS We analyzed consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-STEMI or unstable angina at a single tertiary-care center. Exclusion criteria were unknown sex, age < 18 years and PCI with bare metal stent or without stent placement. The study population was stratified according to sex. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) defined as the composite of death, spontaneous myocardial infarction, or stroke at 1 year. Secondary endpoints were individual components of MACCE, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and clinically significant bleeding. RESULTS Of the 7362 patients included, 5031 (68.3%) were men and 2331 (31.7%) women. Women were older and presented with a higher burden of comorbidities while men had more complex coronary anatomy. The incidence of 1 year MACCE was significantly higher among women (8.0% versus 5.6%; p < 0.01) compared to men. Women also experienced a higher rate of bleeding (2.3% vs. 1.4%; p = 0.02) while there were no differences between groups in terms of TVR (8.1% vs. 7.8%; p-value = 0.83). Differences in outcomes were attenuated after multivariable adjustment. Findings were consistent across ACS subgroups. CONCLUSIONS In a contemporary ACS population treated with drug-eluting stents, women experienced a higher crude rate of 1-year MACCE. This was no longer apparent after accounting for baseline imbalances.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The initiation of dialysis for treatment of ESRD exacerbates chronic electrolyte and hemodynamic perturbations. Rapid large shifts in effective intravascular volume and electrolyte concentrations ultimately lead to subendocardial ischemia, increased left ventricular wall mass, and diastolic dysfunction, and can precipitate serious arrhythmias through a complex pathophysiological process. These factors, unique to advanced kidney disease and its treatment, increase the overall incidence of acute coronary syndrome and sudden cardiac death. To date, risk prediction models largely fail to incorporate the observed cardiovascular mortality in the CKD population; however, multimodality imaging may provide an additional prognostication and risk stratification. This comprehensive review discusses the cardiovascular risks associated with hemodialysis, and explores the pathophysiology and the novel utilization of multimodality imaging in CKD to promote a personalized approach for these patients with implications for future research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial injury is frequent among patients hospitalized with coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and is associated with a poor prognosis. However, the mechanisms of myocardial injury remain unclear and prior studies have not reported cardiovascular imaging data. OBJECTIVES This study sought to characterize the echocardiographic abnormalities associated with myocardial injury and their prognostic impact in patients with COVID-19. METHODS We conducted an international, multicenter cohort study including 7 hospitals in New York City and Milan of hospitalized patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 who had undergone transthoracic echocardiographic (TTE) and electrocardiographic evaluation during their index hospitalization. Myocardial injury was defined as any elevation in cardiac troponin at the time of clinical presentation or during the hospitalization. RESULTS A total of 305 patients were included. Mean age was 63 years and 205 patients (67.2%) were male. Overall, myocardial injury was observed in 190 patients (62.3%). Compared with patients without myocardial injury, those with myocardial injury had more electrocardiographic abnormalities, higher inflammatory biomarkers and an increased prevalence of major echocardiographic abnormalities that included left ventricular wall motion abnormalities, global left ventricular dysfunction, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction grade II or III, right ventricular dysfunction and pericardial effusions. Rates of in-hospital mortality were 5.2%, 18.6%, and 31.7% in patients without myocardial injury, with myocardial injury without TTE abnormalities, and with myocardial injury and TTE abnormalities. Following multivariable adjustment, myocardial injury with TTE abnormalities was associated with higher risk of death but not myocardial injury without TTE abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS Among patients with COVID-19 who underwent TTE, cardiac structural abnormalities were present in nearly two-thirds of patients with myocardial injury. Myocardial injury was associated with increased in-hospital mortality particularly if echocardiographic abnormalities were present.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The Academic Research Consortium (ARC) has recently published a consensus-based definition to identify patients at high bleeding risk (HBR), reflected by a BARC 3 or 5 bleeding rate of ≥4% at 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The HBR criteria included in the definition are divided into minor and major categories, with patients deemed to be at HBR if they fulfill at least one major or two minor criteria. As a result, patients who present with only one minor criterion are categorized as non-HBR.
Purpose
To compare the differences in baseline characteristics and 1-year bleeding and ischaemic outcomes between non-HBR patients undergoing PCI that present with only one minor HBR criterion versus those that do not fulfill any HBR criteria.
Methods
The study population consisted of all consecutive patients who underwent PCI with stent implantation in a single high-volume centre from January 2014 to December 2017. Patients were classified as non-HBR if they did not fulfill at least one major or two minor ARC-HBR criteria. The outcomes of interest were major bleeding (composite of peri-procedural and post-discharge bleeding), all-cause death, and myocardial infarction (MI) at 1 year. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for time-to-event analyses, with comparative risks being assessed using Cox regression.
Results
Of the 9,623 patients included in the analysis, 5,345 were classified as non-HBR. Within the non-HBR patients, 2,078 (38.9%) presented with only one minor HBR criterion and 3,267 (61.1%) presented with no HBR criteria. Non-HBR patients with one minor criterion were more often female, significantly older, with a higher burden of comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension and hyperlipidaemia, and more likely to have multivessel disease as well as a history of prior MI and revascularisation, while non-HBR patients with no criteria were more likely to be smokers and have a higher BMI. Distribution of the minor HBR criteria within the group presenting with one minor criterion are illustrated in the figure. Non-HBR patients with only one minor criterion had a numerically higher rate of major bleeding compared to non-HBR patients with no criteria (3.6% vs. 2.9%, p=0.09). While the rate of all-cause death was significantly higher in the group with only one minor criterion (1.2% vs. 0.4%, p=0.004), there was no difference in the rate of MI between the two groups (2.1% vs. 1.9%, p=0.83). Hazard ratios comparing the two groups are presented in the figure.
Conclusions
Non-HBR patients presenting with only one minor criterion had a numerically higher rate of post-PCI bleeding and significantly higher mortality compared to those without any criteria. Nonetheless, the major bleeding rates of both groups at 1 year were less than the 4% cutoff to qualify as HBR according to the ARC definition, thereby supporting their inclusion as “minor” criteria in the recent ARC-HBR definition.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Current clinical guidelines recommend prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients presenting with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, an extended DAPT duration in high-bleeding risk (HBR) patients amplifies the risk of post procedural complications. Hence, clinicians often face the dilemma of prolonging DAPT duration to prevent recurrent ischaemic events at the expense of increasing the incidence of bleeding in high-risk patients. The actual incidence of ischaemic and bleeding events in this particular population is not well elucidated.
Purpose
To evaluate one-year ischemic and bleeding outcomes following PCI for ACS in a real-world HBR population as defined by the Academic Research Consortium (ARC) consensus document.
Methods
We included all patients who presented with ACS to a high-volume single PCI centre from 2012 to 2017 and underwent PCI with 2nd generation drug-eluting stent implantation. Patients were classified as HBR if they met ≥1 major or ≥2 minor criteria according to the recent ARC-HBR consensus. The outcomes of interest were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and target lesion revascularization (TLR), and major bleeding events, including both peri-procedural and post-discharge bleeding. All outcomes were assessed at 1-year follow-up. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for time-to-event analyses.
Results
Out of 6,097 ACS patients included in this analysis, 2,717 (44.6%) fulfilled the ARC-HBR definition. Compared to non-HBR group, HBR patients were more frequently female, older, more likely to have cardiovascular risk factors (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia) and complex coronary artery disease (e.g., multi-vessel disease, bifurcation lesions, and calcification). The 1-year incidence of MACE was significantly higher in HBR patients (16.3% vs. 8.1%, HR 2.16, 95% CI [1.81–2.59], p<0.001) (Figure 1A). This finding was driven by higher rates of all-cause death and MI (Figure 1B). The 1-year incidence of major bleeding was also significantly higher in HBR patients compared to non-HBR (11.1% vs. 3.1%, HR: 3.92, 95% CI 3.10–4.95; p<0.001).
Conclusions
HBR patients undergoing PCI for ACS are not only subject to bleeding complications but are also at an increased risk for ischemic events and all-cause mortality.

Abstract
Patients with atrial fibrillation who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stent implantation often require oral anticoagulation (OAC) and antiplatelet therapies. Triple antithrombotic therapy (OAC, a P2Y12-receptor inhibitor, and aspirin) has been the default antithrombotic strategy. Evidence from randomized trials indicates, however, that a dual antithrombotic therapy strategy (OAC plus a P2Y12-receptor inhibitor) reduces bleeding risk without increasing the risk of ischemic events. This review provides an overview of advancements in this field as well as European and North American guidelines and consensus documents to inform clinical decision making around antithrombotic therapies for patients with atrial fibrillation who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention.

Abstract
AIMS Although alirocumab and evolocumab have both been associated with improved outcomes in patients with dyslipidaemia or established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, data on their respective performances are scarce. This study aimed at providing an indirect comparison of the efficacy and safety of alirocumab vs. evolocumab. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized trials comparing alirocumab or evolocumab to placebo with consistent background lipid-lowering therapy up to November 2018. We estimated the relative risk (RR) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using fixed-effect model in a frequentist pairwise and network meta-analytic approach. A total of 30 trials, enrolling 59 026 patients were included. Eligibility criteria varied significantly across trials evaluating alirocumab and evolocumab. Compared with evolocumab, alirocumab was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause death (RR 0.80, 95% CI 0.66-0.97) but not in cardiovascular death (RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.65-1.05). This study did not find any significant differences in myocardial infarction (RR 1.15, 95% CI 0.99-1.34), stroke (RR 0.96, 95% CI 0.71-1.28), or coronary revascularization (RR 1.13, 95% CI 0.99-1.29) between the two agents. Alirocumab was associated with a 27% increased risk of injection site reaction compared to evolocumab; however, no significant differences were found in terms of treatment discontinuations, systemic allergic reaction, neurocognitive events, ophthalmologic events, or new-onset of or worsening of pre-existing diabetes. CONCLUSION Alirocumab and evolocumab share a similar safety profile except for injection site reaction. No significant differences were observed across the efficacy endpoints, except for all-cause death, which may be related to the heterogeneity of the studied populations treated with the two drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Clinicians use validated scores to risk-stratify patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, evaluation by the Heart Team often deems patients to be at higher risk than their formal scores suggest. We sought to assess clinical outcomes of TAVR patients defined as high-risk by the Heart Team's assessment versus the patient's logistic EuroSCORE (LES). METHODS The BRAVO-3 trial randomized patients at high risk (LES ≥ 18, or deemed inoperable by the Heart Team) to TAVR with periprocedural anticoagulation with unfractionated heparin versus bivalirudin. Endpoints included net adverse cardiac events (NACE: the composite of all-cause mortality, MI, stroke, or bleeding), major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE: death, MI, or stroke), the individual components of MACE, major vascular complications, BARC ≥ 3b bleeding and VARC life-threatening bleeding at 30 days. We compared patients deemed high-risk based on LES ≥ 18 versus high-risk by the Heart Team despite lower LES. RESULTS A total of 467/800 (58.4%) patients were deemed high-risk by the Heart Team despite LES < 18. After multivariable analysis, there were no differences in the odds of endpoints between groups (NACE, ORLES≥18 : 1.32, 95% CI 0.86-2.02, p = .21; MACE, ORLES≥18 : 1.27, 95% CI 0.72-2.25, p = .41; major vascular complications, ORLES≥18 : 0.97, 95% CI 0.65-1.44, p = .88; BARC ≥3b, ORLES≥18 : 1.38, 95% CI 0.82-2.33, p = .23; and VARC life-threatening bleeding, ORLES≥18 : 0.99, 95% CI 0.69-1.41, p = .95). CONCLUSION Patients undergoing TAVR and labeled high-risk by LES ≥ 18 or Heart Team assessment despite LES < 18 have comparable short-term outcomes. Assignment of high-risk status to over 50% of patients is attributable to Heart Team's clinical assessment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Alirocumab and evolocumab, two proprotein convertase subtilisin–kexin type 9 inhibitors, have both been associated with improved outcomes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in addition to standard lipid-lowering therapies. However, their comparative safety and efficacy profiles are unknown.
Purpose
To compare the safety and efficacy of alirocumab versus evolocumab.
Methods
We conducted a systematic review and network meta-analysis of placebo-controlled randomized trials available up to November 2018 evaluating the safety and efficacy of alirocumab and evolocumab. We estimated risk ratio and 95% confidence intervals using fixed effect model in a frequentist pairwise and network metanalytic approach. The primary safety endpoints were any adverse events leading to treatment-discontinuation, injection site reaction, systemic allergic reaction, neurocognitive events, ophthalmologic events and new-onset of diabetes mellitus (DM) or worsening of pre-existing DM. The primary efficacy endpoints were all-cause and cardiovascular (CV) death, myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. This study was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42018090768).
Results
A total of 30 trials, enrolling 59,026 patients were included in this analysis, of whom 13,607 received alirocumab and 17,931 received evolocumab. Mean weighted follow-up time was 2.5 years, with an exposure time of 144,907 patients-years. Eligibility criteria varied significantly across trials evaluating alirocumab and evolocumab. There were no significant differences between alirocumab and evolocumab in terms of safety endpoints, except for injection site reaction with a 27% increased risk of injection site reaction with alirocumab compared to evolocumab (Figure). Compared with evolocumab, alirocumab was associated with a reduction of all-cause death but not CV death. There were no significant differences in MI or stroke between alirocumab and evolocumab.
Conclusion
Alirocumab and evolocumab share a similar safety profile. No significant differences were observed across the efficacy endpoints, except for all-cause death, which may be related to heterogeneity of the studied populations between the two drugs.

Abstract
Intensive low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) reduction with statins is recommended after elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to evaluate adherence to guideline-recommended statin therapy (GRST) and the rate of residual cholesterol risk (RCR) at follow-up after elective PCI. All patients who underwent elective PCI between January 2010 and May 2016 were prospectively included in this single-center study. GRST was defined as high-intensity statin (HIS) therapy for patients ≤75 years old and moderate-intensity statin (MIS) or HIS therapy for patients >75 years. RCR at follow-up was defined as <50% decrease in LDL-C with HIS or <30% with MIS for statin-naïve patients and as LDL-C >70 mg/dL for nonstatin-naïve patients. A total of 2,653 patients were included, with 1,304 (49.2%) discharged with GRST. There was a significant increase in the number of patients discharged with GRST over time from 44.2% in 2010 to 63.0% in 2016 (p <0.001). Conversely, RCR at follow-up was present in 1,120 patients (42.2%) overall and remained stable over time. Risk factors of RCR at follow-up were female gender (odds ratio [OR]: 1.38; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.13 to 1.70), previous myocardial infarction (OR: 1.37; 95% CI 1.12 to 1.64), smoking (OR: 1.30; 95% CI 1.01 to 1.67), higher LDL-C level at baseline (OR: 1.22; 95% CI 1.18 to 1.25). The presence of RCR was associated with an increased adjusted risk of death within 1 year of the second LDL-C measurement (adjHR: 2.78; 95% CI 1.15 to 6.67). In conclusion, although the rate of GRST at discharge has improved significantly over time in patients who underwent elective PCI, the prevalence of RCR at follow-up has not changed appreciably suggesting that further implementation of guidelines as well as novel or more intensive pharmacotherapy may be warranted.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the patterns and clinical impact of differing modes of dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) cessation after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients presenting with and without acute coronary syndromes (ACS). The PARIS (patterns of nonadherence to antiplatelet regimens in stented patients) registry was a multicenter study of 5,018 patients who underwent PCI. DAPT cessation was categorized as physician-recommended discontinuation, interruption, or disruption. Overall rates of 2-year DAPT discontinuation did not differ between non-ACS and ACS patients (38.8% vs 37.2%, p = 0.252). ACS patients were less likely to interrupt DAPT (8.5% vs 10.7% p<0.001), but were more likely to disrupt DAPT (16.4% vs 11.9%, p<0001). Adverse events after DAPT cessation were highest after disruption, intermediate with discontinuation, and lowest with interruption across both groups. Disruption of DAPT predicted MACE in both ACS patients (hazard ratio [HR] 2.89 [1.88 to 4.45; p<0.001]) and non-ACS patients (HR 2.08 [1.29 to 3.35; p = 0.002]). Interruption of DAPT predicated MACE in ACS patients (HR 2.72 [1.35 to 5.48]) but not in non-ACS patients (HR 0.44 [0.14 to 1.40]; pinteraction≤0.01). In conclusion, the incidence of DAPT cessation mode differs by presentation with or without ACS. Physician guided DAPT discontinuation was the most common mode of DAPT cessation and appears to be safe across both groups. There were higher rates of adverse events associated with the interruption of DAPT in ACS patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High-intensity statins (HIS) are recommended for secondary prevention following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We aimed to describe temporal trends and determinants of HIS prescriptions after PCI in a usual-care setting. METHODS All patients with age ≤75 years undergoing PCI between January 2011 and May 2016 at an urban, tertiary care center and discharged with available statin dosage data were included. HIS were defined as atorvastatin 40 or 80 mg, rosuvastatin 20 or 40 mg, and simvastatin 80 mg. RESULTS A total of 10,495 consecutive patients were included. Prevalence of HIS prescriptions nearly doubled from 36.6% in 2011 to 60.9% in 2016 (P < .001), with a stepwise increase each year after 2013. Predictors of HIS prescriptions included ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction/non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (odds ratio [OR] 4.60, 95% CI 3.98-5.32, P < .001) and unstable angina (OR 1.31, 95% CI 1.19-1.45, P < .001) as index event, prior myocardial infarction (OR 1.48, 95% CI 1.34-1.65, P < .001), and co-prescription of β-blocker (OR 1.26, 95% CI 1.12-1.43, P < .001). Conversely, statin treatment at baseline (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.77-0.96, P = .006), Asian races (OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.65-0.83, P < .001), and older age (OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.88-0.92, P < .001) were associated with reduced HIS prescriptions. There was no significant association between HIS prescriptions and 1-year rates of death, myocardial infarction, or target-vessel revascularization (adjusted hazard ratio 0.98, 95% CI 0.84-1.15, P = .84), although there was a trend toward reduced mortality (adjusted hazard ratio 0.71, 95% CI 0.50-1.00, P = .05). CONCLUSION Although the rate of HIS prescriptions after PCI has increased in recent years, important heterogeneity remains and should be addressed to improve practices in patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several variables have been identified as bleeding determinants (BDs), their occurrence and predictive value in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the real world remain unclear. We aimed to characterize the rate of BDs in patients undergoing PCI with stent implantation in a large volume tertiary centre. METHODS We included patients undergoing coronary stenting at our institution from January 2012 to December 2016, and defined post-discharge bleeding (PDB) as bleeding requiring hospitalization or transfusion. Several BDs, identified by the PARIS bleeding and PRECISE-DAPT scores and inclusion criteria of the LEADERS FREE trial, were analysed. RESULTS In a population of 10,406 subjects who underwent PCI, 2,938 patients (28.2%) had 1, 2,367 (22.8%) had 2 and 2,913 (28.0%) had ≥3 pre-specified BD. Compared with patients without PDB, subjects who experienced PDB were older (70.43 ± 11.94 vs. 65.90 ± 11.54 years, p < 0.0001) with a higher prevalence of common cardiovascular risk factors. One-year PDB occurred in 177 patients (2.4%), and consistently increased according to the number of BDs involved (1.12, 2.11 and 4.35%, respectively; p < 0.0001). Analogously, 1-year rates of post-discharge myocardial infarction or stent thrombosis increased according to the number of BDs (2.44, 3.38 and 4.87%, respectively; p < 0.0001). Only 7 BDs remained independently associated with PDB at 1 year, with anaemia, oral anticoagulant at discharge and malignancy representing the strongest predictors of such risk. CONCLUSION Many risk factors predispose to PDB; they were often clustered together and conferred additive PDB risk at 1-year of follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While large volumes of red blood cell transfusions are given to preserve life for cardiac surgical patients, indications for lower volume transfusions (1-2 units) are less well understood. We evaluated the relationship between center-level organizational blood management practices and center-level variability in low volume transfusion rates. METHODS All 33 nonfederal, Michigan cardiac surgical programs were surveyed about their blood management practices for isolated, nonemergent coronary bypass procedures, including: (1) presence and structure of a patient blood management program, (2) policies and procedures, and (3) audit and feedback practices. Practices were compared across low (N = 14, rate: 0.8%-10.1%) and high (N = 18, rate: 11.0%-26.3%) transfusion rate centers. RESULTS Thirty-two (97.0%) of 33 institutions participated in this study. No statistical differences in organizational practices were identified between low- and high-rate groups, including: (1) the membership composition of patient blood management programs among those reporting having a blood management committee (P= .27-1.0), (2) the presence of available red blood cell units within the operating room (4 of 14 low-rate versus 2 of 18 high-rate centers report that they store no units per surgical case, P= .36), and (3) the frequency of internal benchmarking reporting about blood management audit and feedback practices (low rate: 8 of 14 versus high rate: 9 of 18; P= .43). CONCLUSIONS We did not identify meaningful differences in organizational practices between low- and high-rate intraoperative transfusion centers. While a larger sample size may have been able to identify differences in organizational practices, efforts to reduce variation in 1- to 2-unit, intraoperative transfusions may benefit from evaluating other determinants, including organizational culture and provider transfusion practices.
