Abstract Background The association between aortic stiffness, cardiovascular risk factors and prognosis in patients with recent ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is poorly understood. We analyzed the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and arterial stiffening and assessed its prognostic significance in patients with recent STEMI. Methods We prospectively enrolled 408 consecutive patients who sustained a first STEMI and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV), a direct measure of aortic stiffness, was determined by the transit-time method using velocity-encoded, phase-contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Patient characteristics were acquired at baseline and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) were assessed at 13 (interquartile range [IQR] 12–31) months. Cox regressionand logistic regression analysis were performed to explore predictors of PWV and MACCE. Results Median aortic PWV was 6.6 m/s (IQR 5.6–8.3m/s). In multivariable analysis, age (odds ratio [OR] 1.10, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08–1.14, p<0.001) and hypertension (OR 2.45, 95% CI, 1.53–3.91, p<0.001) were independently associated with increased PWV. Sex, diabetes, smoking status, dyslipidemia, and obesity were not significantly associated with PWV in adjusted analysis (all p>0.05). High PWV significantly and independently predicted occurrence of MACCE in adjusted analysis (hazard ratio [HR] 2.45, 95% CI 1.19–5.04, p=0.014). Conclusion In patients with recent STEMI, the impact of classical cardiovascular risk factors on aortic stiffness is mainly dependent on age and increased blood pressure. Increased aortic stiffness is associated with adverse clinical outcome post-STEMI, suggesting it as a relevant therapeutic target in this population.

In multivariable analysis, age (odds ratio [OR] 1.10, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.08–1.14, p < 0.001) and hypertension (OR 2.45, 95% CI, 1.53–3.91, p < 0.001) were independently associated with higher PWV. Gender, diabetes, smoking status, dyslipidemia, and obesity were not significantly associated with PWV in adjusted analysis (all p > 0.05). High PWV significantly and independently predicted occurrence of MACCE in adjusted analysis (hazard ratio [HR] 2.45, 95% CI 1.19–5.04, p = 0.014). Conclusion In patients with recent STEMI, the impact of classical cardiovascular risk factors on aortic stiffness is mainly dependent on age and increased blood pressure. Increased aortic stiffness is associated with adverse clinical outcome, suggesting it as a relevant therapeutic target in this population.

We analyzed the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and arterial stiffening and assessed its prognostic significance in patients with recent STEMI. We prospectively enrolled 408 consecutive patients who sustained a first STEMI and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV), the most widely used measure of aortic stiffness, was determined by the transit-time method using velocity-encoded, phase-contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Patient characteristics were acquired at baseline and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) were assessed at 13 [interquartile range (IQR) 12–31] months. Cox regression- and logistic regression analysis were performed to explore predictors of aortic stiffness and MACCE. Median aortic PWV was 6.6 m/s (IQR 5.6–8.3 m/s). In multivariable analysis, age [odds ratio (OR) 1.10, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.08–1.14, p < 0.001] and hypertension (OR 2.45, 95% CI, 1.53–3.91, p < 0.001) were independently associated with increased PWV. Sex, diabetes, smoking status, dyslipidemia, and obesity were not significantly associated with PWV in adjusted analysis (all p > 0.05). High PWV significantly and independently predicted occurrence of MACCE in adjusted analysis [hazard ratio (HR) 2.45, 95% CI 1.19–5.04, p = 0.014]. In patients with recent STEMI, the impact of classical cardiovascular risk factors on aortic stiffness is mainly dependent on age and increased blood pressure. Increased aortic stiffness is associated with adverse clinical outcome post-STEMI, suggesting it as a relevant therapeutic target in this population. Trial (NCT04113356).

AbstractA prospective study of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), who met the inclusion criteria, was carried out. It was conducted in the cardiology department of tertiary care referral hospital in Kerala. An attempt was made to identify and determine the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors in patients presenting with ACS and to evaluate the current treatment practice pattern of ACS and to compare it with standard treatment guidelines, thereby improving the quality of life of patients.Data of patients who met the inclusion criteria were collected in specially designed data collection form. The form included the patient data such as demographics, risk factors, procedures performed during the hospital stay, and in-hospital and discharge drug therapy. Patients with ACS included those with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and unstable angina (UA). Descriptive statistics were performed. All statistical analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 16.0.A total of 100 patients were studied having mean age of 62.57 years±12.18 years. Fifty-one percent were having NSTEMI, 33% were having STEMI, and 16% were having UA. Hypertension (63%) and diabetes (51%) were more prevalent in both men and women. Smoking among males was consistently high (48.6%), being highest among adults. Cardiac procedures performed include percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in 45%, coronary angiogram (CAG) in 20%, and coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) in 7%. In-hospital medications were antiplatelets (100%), thrombolytics (28%), statins (97%), anticoagulants (80%), nitrates (73%), β-blocker (32%), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (6%), angiotensin receptor blocker (9%), potassium opener (7%), vasodilator (1%), calcium channel blocker (9%), α-blocker (7%), and α+β blocker (7%).The contemporary profile of treatment patterns for patients with ACS indicates an improved adherence to the guidelines. The alarmingly high rate of modifiable risk factors remains a cause of concern and a challenge that needs to be tackled, as better control of cardiovascular risk factors is expected to have a favorable impact on the incidence of ACS.

The development of cardiac complications during or after endoscopic procedures is rare. However, mortality from myocardial ischemia, particularly in the elderly population, is elevated. We illustrate the rare case of a 79-year-old man with multiple cardiovascular risk factors who developed a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) after endoscopic removal of a foreign body. This case report summarizes a rare complication of a low-risk procedure and highlights the importance of considering this potential adverse event, particularly in patients with significant cardiovascular risk factors, to promote early diagnosis and proper treatment.

BACKGROUND Coronary microvascular obstruction /no-reflow(CMVO/NR) is a predictor of long-term mortality in survivors of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). OBJECTIVE To identify risk factors of CMVO/NR. METHODS Totally 2384 STEMI patients treated with PPCI were divided into two groups according to thrombolysis in myocardial infarction(TIMI) flow grade:CMVO/NR group(246cases,TIMI 0-2 grade) and control group(2138 cases,TIMI 3 grade). We used univariable and multivariable logistic regression to identify risk factors of CMVO/NR. RESULTS A frequency of CMVO/NR was 10.3%(246/2384). Logistic regression analysis showed that the differences between the two groups in age(unadjusted odds ratios [OR] 1.032; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.045; adjusted OR 1.032; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.046 ; P <0.001), periprocedural bradycardia (unadjusted OR 2.357 ; 95% CI, 1.752 to 3.171; adjusted OR1.818; 95% CI, 1.338 to 2.471 ; P <0.001),using thrombus aspirationdevices during operation (unadjusted OR 2.489 ; 95% CI, 1.815 to 3.414; adjusted OR1.835; 95% CI, 1.291 to 2.606 ; P =0.001),neutrophil percentage (unadjusted OR 1.028 ; 95% CI, 1.014 to 1.042; adjusted OR1.022; 95% CI, 1.008 to 1.036 ; P =0.002) , and completely block of culprit vessel (unadjusted OR 2.626; 95% CI, 1.85 to 3.728; adjusted-OR 1.656;95% CI, 1.119 to 2.45; P =0.012) were statistically significant ( P <0. 05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.6896 . CONCLUSIONS Age , periprocedural bradycardia, using thrombus aspirationdevices during operation, neutrophil percentage ,and completely block of culprit vessel may be independent risk factors for predicting CMVO/NR.
