Abstract Background: Higher circulating soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (sST2) concentration is suggested as a marker of prognosis in many cardiovascular diseases. However, the short-term and long-term prognostic value of sST2 concentration in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains to be summarized. Methods: A meta-analysis of follow-up studies was performed. Studies were identified via systematic search of databases including PubMed, Cochrane’s Library, and Embase. A fixed- or random-effect model was applied according to the heterogeneity. We reported the prognostic value of sST2 concentration for all-cause mortality, heart failure (HF) events, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) within 1 month after hospitalization and during subsequent follow-up. Results: Twelve studies with 11690 ACS patients were included. Higher baseline sST2 concentration as continuous variables predicte the increased risk of all-cause mortality (risk ratio [RR]: 3.16, P=0.002), HF events (RR: 1.48, P<0.001), and MACEs (RR: 1.47, P<0.001) within 1 month after hospitalization, which is consistent with the results with sST2 concentration as categorized variables (RR = 2.14, 2.89, and 2.89 respectively, P all <0.001). Moreover, higher baseline sST2 concentration as continuous variables predict the increased risk of all-cause mortality (RR: 2.20, P<0.001), HF events (RR: 1.39, P<0.001), and MACEs (RR: 1.53, P=0.02) during subsequent follow-up. Meta-analysis with sST2 concentration as categorized variables retrieved similar results (RR = 2.65, 2.59, and 1.81 respectively, P all <0.001). Conclusions: Higher circulating sST2 concentration at baseline predicts poor clinical outcome in ACS patients.

AbstractThe association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and survival outcome after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains controversial. This meta-analysis sought to examine the association of MetS with all-cause mortality among patients with ACS. Two authors independently searched PubMed and Embase databases (from their inception to June 27, 2020) for studies that examined the association of MetS with all-cause mortality among patients with ACS. Outcome measures were in-hospital mortality and all-cause mortality during the follow-up. A total of 10 studies involving 49 896 ACS patients were identified. Meta-analysis indicated that presence of MetS was associated with an increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality [risk ratio (RR) 1.25; 95% CI 1.15–1.36; n=9 studies] and in-hospital mortality (RR 2.35; 95% CI 1.40–3.95; n=2 studies), respectively. Sensitivity and subgroup analysis demonstrated the credibility of the value of MetS in predicting long-term all-cause mortality. MetS is associated with an increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality among patients with ACS. However, additional studies are required to investigate the association of MetS with in-hospital mortality.

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (sST2) has been considered as a prognostic factor of cardiovascular disease. However, the prognostic value of sST2 concentration in chronic heart failure remains to be summarized. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science for eligible studies up to January 1, 2020. Data extracted from articles and provided by authors were used in agreement with the PRISMA statement. The endpoints were all-cause mortality (ACM), cardiovascular mortality (CVM)/heart failure-related hospitalization (HFH), and all-cause mortality (ACM)/heart failure-related readmission (HFR). <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 11 studies with 5,121 participants were included in this analysis. Higher concentration of sST2 predicted the incidence of long-term ACM (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.03, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.02–1.04), long-term ACM/HFR (HR: 1.42, CI: 1.27–1.59), and long-term CVM/HFH (HR: 2.25, CI: 1.82–2.79), regardless of short-term ACM/HFR (HR: 2.31, CI: 0.71–7.49). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Higher sST2 concentration at baseline is associated with increasing risk of long-term ACM, ACM/HFR, and CVM/HFH and can be a tool for the prognosis of chronic heart failure.

Importance: Up to 10% of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have right bundle branch block (RBBB), and RBBB has been associated with a higher risk of mortality. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the prognostic significance of RBBB for patients with AMI. Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) Data Sources: We have systematically searched Ovid, Scopus and Web of Science through January 2014. Study Selection: Reviewers working independently and in duplicate screened all eligible abstracts, selecting studies that described all-cause mortality or cardiovascular death in patients with RBBB and suspected ACS. We excluded studies that reported unadjusted outcomes. Knowledge synthesis: We pooled risk ratio with hazard ratio in studies reporting those outcomes. When reported, odds ratio was converted into risk ratio using reported event rate in each study’s unexposed -read: non RBBB- group. Main Outcomes: All-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality (death). Results: Eighteen studies were found that reported eligible data. All were observational studies, involving over 89,000 patients. In short-term follow up (up to 30 days), RBBB on presentation was associated with higher all-cause mortality rate, compared to patients without RBBB (RR 2.23, 95% CI 1.76-2.82). There was a trend for higher mortality at long-term follow up (range: 6 months-16 years) that did not reach statistical significance (RR 1.45, 95% CI 0.93-2.25). Figure-1 demonstrates the forest plot. Risk of bias was assessed with the Newcastle-Ottawa scale and majority of included studied were deemed moderate to high quality. Conclusion and Relevance: RBBB is associated with a more than 2-fold higher risk of all-cause mortality in patients with AMI at 30 days follow up. Patients with AMI and RBBB represent a high risk group for adverse outcomes. A sentence on the differential findings for new vs. old RBBB and association with outcomes could follow here.

Antithrombotic Management

Background Long‐term use of antiplatelet agents after acute coronary syndrome in diabetic patients is not well known. Here, we describe antiplatelet use and outcomes in such patients enrolled in the EPICOR Asia (Long‐Term Follow‐up of Antithrombotic Management Patterns in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients in Asia) registry. Methods and Results EPICOR Asia is a prospective, observational study of 12 922 patients with acute coronary syndrome surviving to discharge, from 8 countries/regions in Asia. The present analysis included 3162 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) and 9602 patients without DM. The impact of DM on use of antiplatelet agents and events (composite of death, myocardial infarction, and stroke, with or without any revascularization; individual components, and bleeding) was evaluated. Significant baseline differences were seen between patients with DM and patients without DM for age, sex, body mass index, cardiovascular history, angiographic findings, and use of percutaneous coronary intervention. At discharge, ≈90% of patients in each group received dual antiplatelet therapy. At 2‐year follow‐up, more patients with DM tended to still receive dual antiplatelet therapy (60% versus 56%). DM was associated with increased risk from ischemic but not major bleeding events. Independent predictors of the composite end point of death, myocardial infarction, and stroke in patients with DM were age ≥65 years and use of diuretics at discharge. Conclusions Antiplatelet agent use is broadly comparable in patients with DM and patients without DM, although patients with DM are more likely to be on dual antiplatelet therapy at 2 years. Patients with DM are at increased risk of ischemic events, suggesting an unmet need for improved antithrombotic treatment.

A number of studies demonstrate that patients with traditional risk factors (TRF) have not only increases primary risk of atherothrombotic events, but are also associated with many complicates and poor prognosis.Purpose: assessment of TRF effect on the incidence of complications and outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Materials and methods: in 255 patients hospitalized with ACS were retrospective determined the TRF prevalence, frequency of the complications and correlation between the presence of TRF and the risk of complications and long-term prognosis (follow-up 1 year).Results: patients had TRF very often, 80% patients had more than 3 TRFs. The presence of some TRFs (smoking, abdominal obesity, family history) was associated with a significantly increased risk of complications in patients with ACS, including life-threatening. Effect of TRF on long-term prognosis was not determined.Conclusion: the findings suggest the need to evaluation TRF not only in primary preventive and also to improve the effectiveness of risk stratification in patients with ACS.

Ca125 Level

Abstract Background: carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) is an increasingly promising biomarker of heart failure (HF), but its prognostic value in female patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is unclear. We aimed to determine the short-term and mid-term prognostic value of CA125 serum levels in female ACS patients.Methods: A total of 131 consecutive female patients with ACS were retrospective enrolled. Their CA125 levels, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels and biochemical parameters were measured, and echocardiography was performed at admission. All-cause mortality during hospitalization and two-year follow-up was investigated for the prognosis.Results: The median value of CA125 serum level in the entire ACS patients was 13.85 U/mL. Patients in Killip Ⅲ had the highest values of CA125 level, followed by Killip Ⅱ and then Killip Ⅰ (p < 0.05). However, no statical difference was observed between Killip Ⅳ and Ⅰ-Ⅲ groups respectively (P > 0.05). The CA125 serum levels showed weak positive correlation with left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD) (r = 0.3, P < 0.01) and a weak negative correlation with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (r = –0.23, p < 0.01). A receive operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the AUC of CA125 in predicting acute heart failure (AHF) in ACS patients during hospitalization was 0.912, exhibiting higher sensitivity and specificity than BNP (0.846). The optimal cut-off value for CA125 in predicting AHF was 16.4 U/mL with a sensitivity of 0.916 and specificity of 0.893. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated that patients with high values of CA125 level had a poor overall survival than those with low values of CA125 level (log-rank, p < 0.001), whether during hospitalization or mid-term follow-up. Conclusion: Elevated CA125 level can be used to predict AHF in female ACS patients. Patients with elevated CA125 levels had higher mortality in short-term and mid-term than those with low CA125 levels.

Abstract Background: The association between the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) and prognosis of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is not fully understood. We performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the correlation between LMR and mortality or major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in patients with ACS. Methods: A systematic search was performed in PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, Scopus and Web of science. The association between LMR and mortality or MACE was analyzed in patients with ACS. The search was updated to April 15, 2020. Results: A total of 5 studies comprising 4343 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that lower LMR predicted short-term mortality/MACE (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.44, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.46–8.14, P < 0.05) and higher long-term mortality/MACE (HR = 1.70, 95% CI: 1.36– 2.13, P < 0.05). According to our subgroup analysis, there is still has a statistical significance for LMR to predict long-term mortality/MACE in any subgroups. Conclusions: This study suggested that lower LMR value might be associated with higher short-term mortality/MACE and long-term mortality/MACE in ACS patients. Especially for younger ACS patients, low LMR was more closely associated with poor prognosis.

ObjectivesAnxiety has been suggested to be associated with poor outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, results of previous follow-up studies were inconsistent. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the association between anxiety and clinical outcomes in patients with ACS, and to investigate the potential role of depression underlying the above association.DesignA meta-analysis of prospective follow-up studies.SettingHospitals.ParticipantsPatients with ACS.InterventionsWe included related prospective follow-up studies up through 20 July 2019 that were identified by searching PubMed and Embase databases. A random-effect model was used for the meta-analysis. Anxiety was evaluated by validated instruments at baseline.Primary and secondary outcome measuresWe determined the association between anxiety and risks of mortality and adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with ACS.ResultsOur analysis included 17 studies involving 39 038 patients wqith ACS. Anxiety was independently associated with increased mortality risk (adjusted risk ratio (RR) 1.21, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.37, p=0.002) and MACEs (adjusted RR 1.47, 95% CI 1.24 to 1.74, p<0.001) in patients with ACS. Subgroup analyses showed that depression may at least partly confound the association between anxiety and poor outcomes in patients with ACS. Adjustment of depression significantly attenuated the association between anxiety and MACEs (adjusted RR 1.25, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.52, p=0.02). Moreover, anxiety was not significantly associated with mortality risk after adjusting for depression (adjusted RR 0.88, 95% CI 0.66 to 1.17, p=0.37).ConclusionsAnxiety is associated with increased risk of mortality and MACEs in patients with ACS. However, at least part of the association may be confounded by concurrent depressive symptoms in these patients.
