AbstractThis study investigated the outcomes and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) incurred by acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients comorbiding with hypertension and hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) during hospitalization and 1-year follow-up. 648 consecutive AMI patients were divided into four categories: (1) hypertension with Hcy ≥ 15 µmol/L; (2) hypertension with Hcy < 15 µmol/L; (3) no-hypertension with Hcy ≥ 15 µmol/L; (4) no-hypertension with Hcy < 15 µmol/L. Information taken from these case files included gender, past medical history, vital signs, laboratory examination, electrocardiogram, coronary angiography, cardiac ultrasound, and medicine treatment. The primary endpoints were duration of coronary care units (CCU) stay, duration of in-hospital stay, and MACEs during follow-up. Our data show that hypertension and HHcy have a synergistic effect in AMI patients, AMI comorbiding with hypertension and HHcy patients had more severe multi-coronary artery disease and more frequent non-culprit coronary lesions complete clogging, had a higher prevalence of pro-brain natriuretic peptide, and significant decreases in the left ventricular ejection fraction. These patients had significant increases in the duration of CCU stay and in-hospital stay, had significant increase in the rate of MACEs, had significant decreases in the survival rate during follow-up.

Background: Relatively high left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) (>65%) in women was recently associated with higher all-cause mortality over 6 years follow-up in the CONFIRM study. We sought to evaluate high EF and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in the Women’s Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) study. Methods: The WISE original cohort (enrolled 1996-2000) is a multicenter prospective study of women with suspected ischemic heart disease undergoing clinically indicated invasive coronary angiography. We investigated the relationship between high (>65%) and normal (55-65%) EF and MACE, defined as all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and heart failure (HF) hospitalization using Kaplan Meier (KM) and regression analyses. Results: A total of 653 women were included (298 high and 355 normal EF). Mean age was 58±11 years and mean EF was 68±7%. There was no significant difference in MACE by EF group over a 10-year follow-up period (log rank p=0.54, Figure ). When patients were stratified by the presence of obstructive CAD, MACE rates remained similar between high and normal EF. High EF was not associated with stroke or HF but had a lower MI risk (log rank p=0.03, Table ). EF was not associated with MACE in a multivariable regression model. Conclusions: Among women presenting with evidence of ischemia, there was no significant difference in MACE between high and normal EF groups. High EF was associated with a lower risk of myocardial infarction as an individual component of MACE.

Abstract Background: Admission hyperglycemia has been associated with major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) in patients with acute coronary syndrome. Methods: In this study we sought to determine the association between admission blood sugar (ABS) and the outcomes of non-diabetic patients with first-ever acute myocardial infarction (MI). Non-diabetic patients with MI were evaluated from March 2016 to March 2019. Baseline characteristics, laboratories, electrocardiogram, and baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were recorded. All patients were followed up and outcomes were obtained. Follow-up data comprised of repeating electrocardiogram and echocardiography at 1 year, and MACCE, including re-MI, stroke, and mortality. Results: A total of 312 patients with a mean age of 54.2 ± 11.9 years were evaluated. All patients were followed up for a median of 38 months. The frequencies of in-hospital mortality and MACCE at late follow-up were higher in third tertile of ABS compared with those in first and second tertiles (both p <0.05). Based on the Cox regression analysis, the independent predictors of MACCE included age (hazard ratio [HR] 1.068, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.033 – 1.105, p <0.001), third tertile of ABS >172 mg/dL (HR 21.257, 95% CI 2.832 – 159.577, p=0.003), and baseline LVEF (HR 0.947, 95% CI 0.901 – 0.995, p=0.031). Conclusion: Admission stress hyperglycemia is associated with increased rates of in-hospital mortality and MACCE at late follow-up in non-diabetic patients with MI. Moreover, elevated ABS, older ages, and a decreased value of baseline LVEF predicted MACCE during follow-up.

Abstract Background Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is associated with the presence and severity of coronary artery disease independently of clinical risk factors, which leads to increased cardiovascular mortality. However, the prevalence of AS and its prognostic value among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remain unknown. Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence and prognostic impact of AS in AMI patients. Methods We studied 2,803 AMI patients using data from Mie ACS registry, a prospective and multicenter registry. Patients were divided into subgroups according to the presence and severity of AS based on maximal aortic flow rate by Doppler echocardiography before hospital discharge: non-AS <2.0 m/s, 2.0 m/s≤mild AS <3.0 m/s, 3.0 m/s≤moderate AS <4.0m/s and severe AS≥4.0 m/s. The primary outcome was defined as 2-year all-cause mortality. Results AS was detected in 79 patients (2.8%) including 49 mild AS, 23 moderate AS and 6 severe AS. AS patients were significantly older (79.9±9.8 versus 68.3±12.6 years), and higher killip classification than non-AS patients (P<0.01, respectively). However, left ventricular ejection fraction, and prevalence of primary PCI was similar between the 2 groups. During the follow-up periods (median 725 days), 333 (11.9%) patients experienced all-cause death. AS patients demonstrated the higher all-cause mortality rate compared to that of non-AS patients during follow up (47.3% versus 11.3%, P<0.0001, chi square). Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the probability of all-cause mortality was significantly higher among AS patients than non-AS patients, and was highest among moderate and severe AS (See figure A and B). Cox regression analyses for all-cause mortality demonstrated that the severity of AS was the strongest and independent poor prognostic factor (HR 1.71, 95% CI 1.30–2.24, P<0.001, See table). Cox hazard regression analysis Hazard ratio 95% Confidential interval P-value Severity of aortic valve stenosis 1.71 1.30–2.24 <0.001 Killip classification 1.63 1.46–1.82 <0.001 Age 1.07 1.06–1.09 <0.001 Serum creatinine level 1.05 1.03–1.08 <0.001 Max CPK level 1.00 1.00–1.01 <0.001 Left ventricular ejection fraction 0.96 0.95–0.97 <0.001 Primary percutaneous coronary intervention 0.67 0.47–0.96 0.03 CPK suggests creatinine phosphokinase. All cause mortality Conclusions The presence of AS of any severity contributes to worsening of patients' prognosis following AMI independently of other known risk factors.

Anti Platelet Therapy

The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors in patients on clopidogrel anti-platelet therapy after acute myocardial infarction, for cardiovascular mortality, re-hospitalization and admission to emergency care unit. We followed 175 patients on dual antiplatelet therapy, with clopidogrel and acetylsalicylic acid, for 1 year after acute myocardial infarction, both STEMI and NSTEMI. Beside demographic and clinical characteristics, genetic ABCB1, CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 profile was analyzed using Cox-regression analysis. End-points used were: mortality, re-hospitalization and emergency care visits, all related to cardiovascular system. During the accrual and follow-up period, 8 patients (4.6%) died, mostly as a direct consequence of an acute myocardial infarction. Re-hospitalization was needed in 27 patients (15.4%), in nine patients (33.3%) with the diagnosis of re-infarction. Thirty-two patients (18.3%) were admitted to emergency care unit due to cardiovascular causes, up to 15 times during the follow-up. NSTEMI was an independent predictor of all three events registered (mortality OR=7.4, p<0.05; re-hospitalization OR=2.8, p<0.05); emergency care visit OR=2.4, p<0.05). Other significant predictors were related to kidney function (urea and creatinine level, creatinine clearance), co-morbidities such as arterial hypertension and decreased left ventricular ejection fraction, as well as clopidogrel dosing regimen. As a conclusion, it may be suggested that one of the most significant predictors of cardiovascular events (mortality, re-hospitalization and emergency care visits) is NSTEMI. Besides, clopidogrel administration according to up-to-date guidelines, with high loading doses and initial doubled maintenance doses, improves 1-year prognosis in patients with AMI.

Lipoprotein A

Introduction: High serum levels of lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) are associated with adverse outcomes after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Lp(a) exerts its atherogenic and thrombogenic properties, which suggests greater lipid component of plaque and thrombi at the culprit lesion of AMI with elevated Lp(a). The risk of coronary artery disease is increased with a threshold serum Lp(a) level of 25 mg/dl. Purpose: We sought to evaluate impact of Lp(a) on myocardial viability and left ventricular function after AMI. Methods: The study included 156 patients (66±10.7 yrs, mean±sd, men 122, LAD/LCX/RCA 80/16/60) with first AMI within 24 hours from the onset who underwent emergent PCI. Serum Lp(a) was measured at admission. Serum CPK values were measured at admission and at intervals of 4 hours. Peak CPK value was determined. Within 2 weeks, Tl/BMIPP SPECT was performed to measure perfusion-metabolism mismatch score, an indicator of viable myocardium, from each total defect score of Tl/BMIPP using 17-segment model and semiquantitative visual score (0:normal, to 4:no uptake). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was measured by two-dimensional echocardiography (2D trace) within 1 week (baseline LVEF) and at 6 months to 1 year (follow-up LVEF). Results: The study patients were divided into the group with serum Lp(a)≧25mg/dl at admission (n=42, Lp(a) 44.0±19.4mg/dl) and the group with Lp(a)<25 (n=114, Lp(a) 10.8±6.5). There were no significant differences between the two groups with respect to age, gender, peak CPK (2732±2060 IU/L (Lp(a)≧25), 2971±2254 (Lp(a)<25)). The mismatch score was significantly lower in Lp(a)≧25 group than in Lp(a)<25 (4.4±3.3 vs 5.9±3.9, p<0.05, respectively). Δ%LVEF (100*(follow-up LVEF - baseline LVEF)/ baseline LVEF) was significantly lower in Lp(a)≧25 than Lp(a)<25 (-2.0±11.0 vs 7.4±13.0, p<0.05, respectively). Conclusions: Elevated Lp(a) was associated with less myocardial viability and less LVEF recovery after AMI.

ObjectivesTo investigate factors predicting the onset of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) .BackgroundApelin-12 plays an essential role in cardiovascular homoeostasis. However, current knowledge of its predictive prognostic value is limited.Methods464 patients with STEMI (63.0±11.9 years, 355 men) who underwent successful pPCI were enrolled and followed for 2.5 years. Multivariate cox regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed to determine the factors predicting MACEs.Results118 patients (25.4%) experienced MACEs in the follow-up period. Multivariate cox regression analysis found low apelin-12 (HR=0.132, 95% CI 0.060 to 0.292, P<0.001), low left ventricular ejection fraction (HR=0.965, 95% CI 0.941 to 0.991, P=0.007), low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (HR=0.985, 95% CI 0.977 to 0.993, P<0.001), Killip’s classification>I (HR=0.610, 95% CI 0.408 to 0.912, P=0.016) and pathological Q-wave (HR=1.536, 95% CI 1.058 to 2.230, P=0.024) were independent predictors of MACEs in the 2.5 year follow-up period. Low apelin-12 also predicted poorer in-hospital prognosis and MACEs in the 2.5 years follow-up period compared with Δapelin-12 (P=0.0115) and eGFR (P=0.0071) among patients with eGFR>90 mL/min×1.73 m2. Further analysis showed Δapelin-12 <20% was associated with MACEs in patients whose apelin-12 was below 0.76 ng/mL (P=0.0075) on admission.ConclusionsPatients with STEMI receiving pPCI with lower apelin-12 are more likely to suffer MACEs in hospital and 2.5 years postprocedure, particularly in those with normal eGFR levels.

AbstractGlobal longitudinal strain (GLS) is a more sensitive prognostic factor than left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in various cardiac diseases. Little is known about the clinical impact of GLS changes after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The present study aimed to explore if non-improvement of GLS after 3 months was associated with higher risk of subsequent composite cardiovascular events (CCVE). Patients with AMI were consecutively included at a secondary care center in Norway between April 2016 and July 2018 within 4 days following percutaneous coronary intervention. Echocardiography was performed at baseline and after 3 months. Patients were categorized with non-improvement (0 to − 100%) or improvement (0 to 100%) in GLS relative to the baseline value. Among 214 patients with mean age 65 (± 10) years and mean LVEF 50% (± 8) at baseline, 50 (23%) had non-improvement (GLS: − 16.0% (± 3.7) to − 14.2% (± 3.6)) and 164 (77%) had improvement (GLS: − 14.0% (± 3.0) to − 16.9% (± 3.0%)). During a mean follow-up of 3.3 years (95% CI 3.2 to 3.4) 77 CCVE occurred in 52 patients. In adjusted Cox regression analyses, baseline GLS was associated with all recurrent CCVE (HR 1.1, 95% CI 1.0 to 1.2, p < 0.001) whereas non-improvement versus improvement over 3 months follow-up was not. Baseline GLS was significantly associated with the number of CCVE in revascularized AMI patients whereas non-improvement of GLS after 3 months was not. Further large-scale studies are needed before repeated GLS measurements may be recommended in clinical practice.Trial registration: Current Research information system in Norway (CRISTIN).
