AbstractThe effect of limb remote ischaemic conditioning (RIC) on myocardial infarct (MI) size and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was investigated in a pre-planned cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) substudy of the CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI trial. This single-blind multi-centre trial (7 sites in UK and Denmark) included 169 ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients who were already randomised to either control (n = 89) or limb RIC (n = 80) (4 × 5 min cycles of arm cuff inflations/deflations) prior to primary percutaneous coronary intervention. CMR was performed acutely and at 6 months. The primary endpoint was MI size on the 6 month CMR scan, expressed as median and interquartile range. In 110 patients with 6-month CMR data, limb RIC did not reduce MI size [RIC: 13.0 (5.1–17.1)% of LV mass; control: 11.1 (7.0–17.8)% of LV mass, P = 0.39], or LVEF, when compared to control. In 162 patients with acute CMR data, limb RIC had no effect on acute MI size, microvascular obstruction and LVEF when compared to control. In a subgroup of anterior STEMI patients, RIC was associated with lower incidence of microvascular obstruction and higher LVEF on the acute scan when compared with control, but this was not associated with an improvement in LVEF at 6 months. In summary, in this pre-planned CMR substudy of the CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI trial, there was no evidence that limb RIC reduced MI size or improved LVEF at 6 months by CMR, findings which are consistent with the neutral effects of limb RIC on clinical outcomes reported in the main CONDI-2/ERIC-PPCI trial.

Abstract Background Left ventricular negative remodelling after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is considered as the major cause for the poor prognosis. But the predisposing factors and potential mechanisms of left ventricular negative remodelling after STEMI remain not fully understood. The present research mainly assessed the association between the stress hyperglycaemia ratio (SHR) and left ventricular negative remodelling. Methods We recruited 127 first-time, anterior, and acute STEMI patients in the present study. All enrolled patients were divided into 2 subgroups equally according to the median value of SHR level (1.191). Echocardiography was conducted within 24 h after admission and 6 months post-STEMI to measure left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD). Changes in echocardiography parameters (δLVEF, δLVEDD, δLVESD) were calculated as LVEF, LVEDD, and LVESD at 6 months after infarction minus baseline LVEF, LVEDD and LVESD, respectively. Results In the present study, the mean SHR was 1.22 ± 0.25 and there was significant difference in SHR between the 2 subgroups (1.05 (0.95, 1.11) vs 1.39 (1.28, 1.50), p < 0.0001). The global LVEF at 6 months post-STEMI was significantly higher in the low SHR group than the high SHR group (59.37 ± 7.33 vs 54.03 ± 9.64, p  = 0.001). Additionally, the global LVEDD (49.84 ± 5.10 vs 51.81 ± 5.60, p  = 0.040) and LVESD (33.27 ± 5.03 vs 35.38 ± 6.05, p  = 0.035) at 6 months after STEMI were lower in the low SHR group. Most importantly, after adjusting through multivariable linear regression analysis, SHR remained associated with δLVEF (beta = −9.825, 95% CI −15.168 to −4.481, p  < 0.0001), δLVEDD (beta = 4.879, 95% CI 1.725 to 8.069, p  = 0.003), and δLVESD (beta = 5.079, 95% CI 1.421 to 8.738, p  = 0.007). Conclusions In the present research, we demonstrated for the first time that SHR is significantly correlated with left ventricular negative remodelling after STEMI.

Abstract Objective To investigate the correlation between Procollagen I C-Terminal Propeptide (PICP), Procollagen III N-Terminal Propeptide (PIIINP), indices of echocardiography and anamnestic data in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and preserved myocardial contractility. Materials and methods 60 men and 23 women diagnosed with STEMI were examined. Echocardiographic studies were performed using SONOS 2500 Cardiac – Vascular Ultrasound (Hewlett Packard, USA). Myocardial contractility was considered to be preserved with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%. In addition to standard indices of echocardiography, mitral flow propagation velocity (FPV) was evaluated to diagnose diastolic dysfunction. Coronary angiography was performed using INNOVA 3100 Cardiovascular Imaging System (USA). All patients, during the first twelve hours of the disease, underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting of the occluded culprit infarct-related artery. On the 1st and 12th days of hospitalization, the concentrations of PICP and PIIINP were determined for all patients by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using laboratory BCM Diagnostics kits (USA). All patients at the hospital received standard therapy. Results The following marker values were obtained: 1st day: PICP 609 (583; 635) ng/ml, PIIINP 26 (18.9; 34.9) ng/ml; 12th day: PICP 588 (580; 561) ng/ml, PIIINP 24.2 (18.6; 30.3) ng/ml. The following significant correlations were revealed: PICP 1st day / isovolumic contraction time – IVCT (m/s) 12th day, r=−0.68, p=0.042; PICP 1st day / Tei Index 12th day, r=−0.72, p=0.028; PICP 1st day / diastolic rigidity 12th day, r=−0.74, p=0.021; PIIINP 1st day/age, r=0.55, p=0.016; PIIINP 1st day/ body mass index (BMI), r=−0.59, p=0.009; PIIINP 1st day / E (cm/s) 1st day, r=0.72, p=0.018; PIIINP 1st day / Em /FPV 1st day, r=0.78, p=0.007; PIIINP 12th day / Em / FPV 1st day, r=0.65, p=0.041; PIIINP 12th day / E (cm/s) 1st day, r=0.67, p=0.033; PIIINP 12th day / E / Em) 12th day, r=0.70, p=0.023; PIIINP 12th day / Em/FPV 12th day, r=0.73, p=0.014. Conclusions The data obtained indicates the correlation between serum markers of myocardial fibrosis and the indices of echocardiography, as well as age. We conclude that, all the markers listed above, are able to represent myocardial remodeling in patients with STEMI. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Residual Syntax Score

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relation between residual SYNTAX score (rSS) and contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) development in patients with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) with normal or near-to-normal left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total of 306 patients who underwent PCI with NSTEMI were included in our study. SYNTAX scores were calculated for the periods before and after PCI. Patients were divided into 2 groups as developed CIN following PCI (CIN +) and patients did not (CIN −). Fifty-four (17.6%) of patients who were included in the study developed CIN. Age ( P = .001) and rSS ( P = .002) were significantly higher and LVEF was lower ( P = .034) in the CIN (+) group. Age ( P = .031, odds ratio [OR]: 1.031, 95% CI, 1.003-1.059) and rSS ( P = .04, OR: 1.036, 95% CI, 1.002-1.071) were independent predictors for CIN. In receiver operating characteristic analyses, when the cutoff value of rSS was taken as 3.5, it determined CIN with 79% sensitivity and 65% specificity. Contrast-induced nephropathy may develop more frequently in patients with increased rSS value. The rSS may be useful to follow-up these patients for CIN development.

Abstract Introduction: The no-reflow phenomenon has been described in 20–40% of patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, despite restoration of TIMI 3 myocardial flow. It is associated with adverse left ventricular remodeling and an unfavorable long-term prognosis. Case presentation: A 45-year-old gentleman was admitted one hour after the onset of an acute anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Emergency coronary angiography was performed, and a severe stenosis of the left anterior descending artery was identified. The lesion was crossed with a pressure-wire, and a drug-eluting stent was directly implanted, with restoration of TIMI 3 epicardial flow. Predilatation was not performed. Coronary wedge pressure was measured during stent deployment. The mean pressure value was 27 mmHg. However, a tall systolic wave was identified in the morphology of the pressure curve. Myocardial blush grade and ST-segment resolution were concordant with early micro-vascular obstruction. Similarly, at transthoracic Doppler echocardiography, the flow in the left anterior descending artery revealed the same pattern. An apical left ventricular aneurysm was echocardiographically detected. The MRI described extensive interstitial edema that affected the anterior, septal, and apical regions of the left ventricle. Areas of intramyocardial hemorrhage and microvascular obstruction were also detected. According to recent literature data, the morphology of the coronary wedge pressure wave suggested at least the presence of pre-procedural distal embolization. Conclusions: In the setting of acute myocardial infarction, the integrity of coronary microvasculature is an important issue. The distal coronary pressure wave pattern before primary percutaneous revascularization can be a deciding factor for an early therapeutic approach.
