Cardiovascular Morbidity And Mortality

Aims To compare the effectiveness of allopurinol with no treatment or placebo for the prevention of cardiovascular events in hyperuricemic patients. Methods and results Pubmed, Web of Science and Cochrane library were searched from inception until July 2020. Randomized controlled trials (RCT) and observational studies in hyperuricemic patients without significant renal disease and treated with allopurinol, versus placebo or no treatment were included. Outcome measures were cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, or a combined endpoint (CM/MI/S). For RCT’s a random effects meta-analysis was performed. For observational studies a narrative synthesis was performed. Of the original 1995 references we ultimately included 26 RCT’s and 21 observational studies. We found a significantly reduced risk of combined endpoint (Risk Ratio 0.65 [95% CI] [0.46 to 0.91]; p = 0.012) and myocardial infarction (RR 0.47 [0.27 to 0.80]; p = 0.01) in the allopurinol group compared to controls. We found no significant effect of allopurinol on stroke or cardiovascular mortality. Of the 15 observational studies with sufficient quality, allopurinol was associated with reduced cardiovascular mortality in 1 out of 3 studies that reported this outcome, myocardial infarction in 6 out of 8, stroke in 4 out of 7, and combined end-point in 2 out of 2. Cardiovascular benefit was only observed when allopurinol therapy was prolonged for more than 6 months and when an appropriate allopurinol dose was administered (300 mg or more/day) or sufficient reduction of serum urate concentration was achieved (<0.36 mmol/l). Conclusions Data from RCT’s and observational studies indicate that allopurinol treatment reduces cardiovascular risk in patients with hyperuricemia. However, the quality of evidence from RCTs is low to moderate. To establish whether allopurinol lowers the risk of cardiovascular events a well-designed and adequately powered randomized, placebo-controlled trial is needed in high-risk patients with hyperuricemia.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of canagliflozin for the treatment of specific cardiovascular and renal outcomes in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients by means of a systematic review and meta-analysis.Methods: We performed comprehensive searches of PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Embase for randomized, placebo-controlled trials of the treatment of T2DM with canagliflozin that were published to 28 September 2020. The cardiovascular outcomes recorded were cardiovascular mortality, heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke. The renal composite outcomes recorded were end-stage renal disease (ESRD), renal death. The data for the principal cardiovascular outcomes, ESRD, and renal death were pooled and expressed as Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Two reviewers independently selected the trials and extracted the data.Results: We identified a total of 1,741 publications, leaving 96 for their titles, abstracts and full-text review. Of these, 10 trials met the inclusion criteria and were finally included in our meta-analysis. The meta-analysis showed that canagliflozin significantly reduced the risk of heart failure in T2DM by 36% (HR 0.64, 95% CI 0.53 to 0.77, p = 0.000). The effects of canagliflozin on non-fatal myocardial infarction or non-fatal stroke (HR 0.84, 95% CI: 0.76 to 0.93, p = 0.001), cardiovascular mortality (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.72 to 0.97, p = 0.021), and myocardial infarction (HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.70 to 1.00, p = 0.045) in patients with T2DM were relatively small, reducing the risks by 16%. In addition, canagliflozin reduced the risk of stroke in T2DM patients by 13% (HR 0.87, 95% CI 0.71 to 1.06, p = 0.166). Moreover, canagliflozin significantly reduced the risk of the composite renal event of ESRD or renal death by 36% (HR 0.64, 95% CI 0.54 to 0.75, p = 0.000).Conclusion: This meta-analysis suggests that canagliflozin protects against cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with T2DM.Systematic Review Registration: [https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero], identifier [CRD42020210315]

IntroductionDelirium in the postoperative period is a wide-reaching problem that affects important clinical outcomes. The incidence and risk factors of delirium in individuals with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been completely determined and no relevant systematic review and meta-analysis of incidence or risk factors exists. Hence, we aim to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to ascertain the incidence and risk factors of delirium among AMI patients undergoing PCI.Methods and analysesWe will undertake a comprehensive literature search among PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, CINAHL and Google Scholar from their inception to the search date. Prospective cohort and cross-sectional studies that described the incidence or at least one risk factor of delirium will be eligible for inclusion. The primary outcome will be the incidence of postoperative delirium. The quality of included studies will be assessed using a risk of bias tool for prevalence studies and the Cochrane guidelines. Heterogeneity of the estimates across studies will be assessed. Incidence and risk factors associated with delirium will be extracted. Incidence data will be pooled. Each risk factor reported in the included studies will be recorded together with its statistical significance; narrative and meta-analytical approaches will be employed. The systematic review and meta-analysis will be presented according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses.Ethics and disseminationThis proposed systematic review and meta-analysis is based on published data, and thus there is no requirement for ethics approval. The study will provide an up to date and accurate incidence and risk factors of delirium after PCI among patients with AMI, which is necessary for future research in this area. The findings of this study will be disseminated through publication in a peer-reviewed journal.PROSPERO registration numberCRD42020184388.

Abstract Background Approximately half of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) present with multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Purpose To compare the risks of major cardiovascular outcomes and procedural complications in patients with STEMI and multivessel CAD randomized to complete revascularization versus culprit-only PCI. Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing complete to culprit-only PCI, identified via a systematic search of MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Libraries. Count data were pooled using DerSimonian and Laird random-effects models with inverse variance weighting to obtain relative risks (RRs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results A total of 8 RCTs (n=6,632) were included, with mean/median follow-up times ranging from 6 to 36 months. Compared to culprit-only PCI, complete PCI was associated with a substantial reduction in MACE (12.6% vs. 22.0%), repeat myocardial infarction (4.5% vs. 6.9%), and repeat revascularization (3.3% vs. 12.1%) (Table 1). Complete PCI may also improve all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, but estimates were accompanied by wide 95% CIs. Findings for stroke, major bleeding, and contrast-induced AKI were inconclusive. Conclusion Complete revascularization appears to confer benefit over culprit-only PCI in patients with STEMI and multivessel CAD, and should be considered a first-line strategy in these patients.
