AbstractNutritional status is a novel approach to prognostic assessment in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, assessment of nutritional status in elderly patients is challenging due to the significant differences between young patients. The TCBI (Triglycerides × Total cholesterol × Body Weight Index) is a novel and simple nutritional index for predicting long-term outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease. This retrospective study evaluated the efficacy of TCBI in 597 elderly (≥ 75 years) patients enrolled in the SHINANO 5 year registry. The SHINANO 5 year registry, a prospective observational multicenter cohort study, had enrolled 1501 consecutive patients who underwent elective/urgent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In this study, patients were categorized into TCBI quartile groups. The primary endpoints were the occurrence of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including all-cause death, stroke, and myocardial infarction at 5 year. The mean duration of follow up was 4.3 ± 1.7 years. The average patient age was 80.9 ± 4.3 years. MACCE was observed in 61 (40.9%) patients in the lowest TCBI quartile group. Kaplan–Meier analysis demonstrated an inverse relationship between MACCE and TCBI (log-lank P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that low TCBI significantly predicted the incidence of MACCE (hazard ratio: 1.44, 95% confidence interval: 1.03–2.00; P = 0.031). The TCBI is useful in predicting long-term outcomes in elderly patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract Aims To investigate the impact of established cardiovascular disease (CVD) on 10-year all-cause death following coronary revascularization in patients with complex coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods The SYNTAXES study assessed vital status out to 10 years of patients with complex CAD enrolled in the SYNTAX trial. The relative efficacy of PCI versus CABG in terms of 10-year all-cause death was assessed according to co-existing CVD. Results Established CVD status was recorded in 1771 (98.3%) patients, of whom 827 (46.7%) had established CVD. Compared to those without CVD, patients with CVD had a significantly higher risk of 10-year all-cause death (31.4% vs. 21.7%; adjusted HR: 1.40; 95% CI 1.08–1.80, p = 0.010). In patients with CVD, PCI had a non-significant numerically higher risk of 10-year all-cause death compared with CABG (35.9% vs. 27.2%; adjusted HR: 1.14; 95% CI 0.83–1.58, p = 0.412). The relative treatment effects of PCI versus CABG on 10-year all-cause death in patients with complex CAD were similar irrespective of the presence of CVD (p-interaction = 0.986). Only those patients with CVD in ≥ 2 territories had a higher risk of 10-year all-cause death (adjusted HR: 2.99, 95% CI 2.11–4.23, p < 0.001) compared to those without CVD. Conclusions The presence of CVD involving more than one territory was associated with a significantly increased risk of 10-year all-cause death, which was non-significantly higher in complex CAD patients treated with PCI compared with CABG. Acceptable long-term outcomes were observed, suggesting that patients with established CVD should not be precluded from undergoing invasive angiography or revascularization.

Background and Aim of the Study: Ischemic mitral valve regurgitation (IMR) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with worse long-term outcomes. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of mitral valve repair with CABG in patients with moderate IMR. Method: This observational study enrolled 3,215 consecutive patients from the Juntendo CABG registry with moderate IMR and multivessel coronary artery disease who underwent CABG between 2002 and 2017. The CABG alone and CABG with mitral valve surgery (MVs) groups were compared. The propensity score was calculated for each patient. Long-term all-cause death, cardiac death, and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 101 patients who underwent CABG had moderate IMR in our database. Propensity score matching selected 40 pairs for final analysis. MVs was associated with increased risks of postoperative atrial fibrillation, blood transfusion, and longer hospitalization. There were no differences between the two groups in long-term outcomes, including all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and the incidence of MACCEs. Conclusions: Surgical treatment of moderate IMR combined with CABG was as safe as CABG alone, with no differences in long-term outcomes. Further studies are needed to determine the effects of MVs in patients with moderate IMR and severe coronary artery disease.
