Purpose Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) has been associated with both protective and detrimental effects on the development of ischemic heart disease. The relationship between IGF-1 levels and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between IGF-1 admission levels in hyperglycemic ACS patients and: (1) MACE over a 5 years follow-up, (2) type 2 diabetes at discharge, and (3) post-ACS myocardial infarct size and dysfunction. Methods This was a post hoc analysis of the BIOMArCS-2 randomized controlled trial. From July 2008 to February 2012, 276 ACS patients with admission plasma glucose level between 140 and 288 mg/dL were included. Records of the composite of all-cause mortality and recurrent non-fatal myocardial infarction were obtained during 5 years follow-up. Venous blood samples were collected on admission. IGF-1 was measured batchwise after study completion. Oral glucose tolerance test was performed to diagnose type 2 diabetes, whereas infarct size and left ventricular function were assessed by myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) imaging, 6 weeks post-ACS. Results Cumulative incidence of MACE was 24% at 5 years follow-up. IGF-1 was not independently associated with MACE (HR:1.00 (95%CI:0.99–1.00), p = 0.29). Seventy-eight patients (28%) had type 2 diabetes at discharge, and the highest quartile of IGF-1 levels was associated with the lowest incidence of diabetes (HR:0.40 (95%CI:0.17–0.95), p = 0.037). IGF-1 levels were not associated with post-ACS myocardial infarct size and dysfunction. Conclusions IGF-1 carries potential for predicting type 2 diabetes, rather than long-term cardiovascular outcomes and post-ACS myocardial infarct size and dysfunction, in hyperglycemic ACS patients.

Abstract Background: Atherogenic index of plasm (AIP) has been identified as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and an independent predictor of mortality. However, it remains unknown whether AIP level may predict mortality in patients with diabetes and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: A total of 2531 consecutive patients with type 2 diabetes who underwent coronary angiography for ACS were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into tertiles according to admission AIP level. The AIP was calculated as the base 10 logarithm of the ratio of the fating concentration of triglyceride (TG) to high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C). The primary endpoints were all-cause death and cardiovascular death. Multivariate cox hazard regression analysis were performed to calculate the hazard ratio(HR)and 95%confidence interval(CI).C-statistics, continuous net reclassification improvement(NRI),and integrated discrimination improvement(IDI) were calculated to evaluate the added prognostic value of AIP beyond the established mode for prediction of death.Results: During 3-year follow-up, all-cause death events occurred in 142 cases and cardiovascular death events occurred in 120 cases, respectively. The risk of all-cause death and cardiovascular death increased with AIP tertiles at a 3-year follow-up. The Kaplan-Meier curves showed that significant differences in event-free survival rates among AIP tertiles(all-cause mortality: p=0.006; cardiovascular mortality: p=0.003).Multivariate cox hazard regression analysis revealed that AIP was independently associated with all-cause death (HR: 3.859, 95% CI:1.926-7.734; p<0.001) and cardiovascular death (HR:4.723, 95% CI: 2.243-9.946; p<0.001). Addition of AIP to the established mode for mortality prediction was not associated with a significant improvement in the C-statistics value but there were significant improvements in reclassification for all-cause death (NRI: 0.198, p=0.022; IDI: 0.008, p=0.016) and cardiovascular death (NRI: 0.260, p=0.006; IDI: 0.010, p=0.021).Conclusions: Admission AIP was independently correlated with long-term mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes and ACS. These findings suggest that AIP may optimize the mortality prediction among patients with diabetes and ACS.

Abstract Background The timing of enrolment following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) may influence cardiovascular (CV) outcomes and potentially treatment effect in clinical trials. Using a large contemporary trial in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) post-ACS, we examined the impact of timing of enrolment on subsequent CV outcomes. Methods EXAMINE was a randomized trial of alogliptin versus placebo in 5380 patients with T2DM and a recent ACS. The primary outcome was a composite of CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction [MI], or non-fatal stroke. The median follow-up was 18 months. In this post hoc analysis, we examined the occurrence of subsequent CV events by timing of enrollment divided by tertiles of time from ACS to randomization: 8–34, 35–56, and 57–141 days. Results Patients randomized early (compared to the latest times) had less comorbidities at baseline including a history of heart failure (HF; 24.7% vs. 33.0%), prior coronary artery bypass graft (9.6% vs. 15.9%), or atrial fibrillation (5.9% vs. 9.4%). Despite the reduced comorbidity burden, the risk of the primary outcome was highest in patients randomized early compared to the latest time (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.47; 95% CI 1.21–1.74) (Figure 1). Similarly, patients randomized early had an increased risk of recurrent MI (aHR 1.51; 95% CI 1.17–1.96) and HF hospitalization (1.49; 95% CI 1.05–2.10). Conclusion In a contemporary cohort of T2DM with a recent ACS, early randomization following the ACS increases the risk of CV events including recurrent MI and HF hospitalization. This should be taken into account when designing future clinical trials. Figure 1 Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: Private grant(s) and/or Sponsorship.

Immunologic and inflammatory processes are involved in the pathogenesis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is a negative regulator of the immune response. This study evaluates the 14 bp Del/Ins HLA-G polymorphism in ACS and DM2. Three hundred and seventy individuals from Western Mexico were recruited and categorized into three groups: ACS (86), DM2 without coronary complications (70), and healthy subjects (214). Genotyping of the 14 bp Del/Ins HLA-G polymorphism was performed by PCR and Native-PAGE. The most common risk factors were hypertension and overweight in ACS and DM2, respectively. The genetic distribution of the 14 bp Del/Ins HLA-G polymorphism showed no significant differences between groups (P≥0.23). Nonetheless, the Ins/Ins genotype was associated with high blood pressure (HBP) in the DM2 group (ORc = 1.65,P=0.02). The genetic recessive model showed similar findings (ORc = 3.03,P=0.04). No association was found in ACS, with aPof 0.05; nevertheless, the prevalence of Ins/Ins carriers was quite similar to that found in the DM2-HBP group. The 14 bp Del/Ins HLA-G polymorphism was not a susceptibility factor for ACS or DM2; however, the Ins/Ins genotype might have contributed to the development of HBP in the studied groups.

Abstract Objective Insulin resistance has been linked to development and progression of atherosclerosis and is present in most patients with type 2 diabetes. Whether the degree of insulin resistance predicts adverse outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes and acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is uncertain. Design The Effect of Aleglitazar on Cardiovascular Outcomes after Acute Coronary Syndrome in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus trial compared the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α/γ agonist aleglitazar with placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes and recent ACS. In participants not treated with insulin, we determined whether baseline homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR; n = 4303) or the change in HOMA-IR on assigned study treatment (n = 3568) was related to the risk of death or major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke) in unadjusted and adjusted models. Because an inverse association of HOMA-IR with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) has been described, we specifically examined effects of adjustment for the latter. Results In unadjusted analysis, twofold higher baseline HOMA-IR was associated with lower risk of death [hazard ratio (HR): 0.79, 95% CI: 0.68 to 0.91, P = 0.002]. Adjustment for 24 standard demographic and clinical variables had minimal effect on this association. However, after further adjustment for NT-proBNP, the association of HOMA-IR with death was no longer present (adjusted HR: 0.99, 95% CI: 0.83 to 1.19, P = 0.94). Baseline HOMA-IR was not associated with major adverse cardiovascular events, nor was the change in HOMA-IR on study treatment associated with death or major adverse cardiovascular events. Conclusions After accounting for levels of NT-proBNP, insulin resistance assessed by HOMA-IR is not related to the risk of death or major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes and ACS.
