Abstract Background Risk factors control and secondary prevention measures are often reported to be suboptimal in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and may lead to worse clinical outcomes. We aimed to examine potentially modifiable risk factors in patients undergoing CABG and investigate their association with long-term coronary events. Methods Cardiovascular risk factors were recorded preoperatively in the setting of a cardiac catheterization laboratory and were analyzed in relation to long-term coronary events, defined as acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or revascularization after CABG. Results Study population included 1,125 patients undergoing CABG without previous revascularization. Modifiable risk factors included hypertension (71%), hyperlipidemia (67%), diabetes (42%), obesity (28%), and smoking (21%). Only 8% did not have any of the five risk factors. During the mean follow-up of 93 ± 52 months after CABG, 179 patients (16%) experienced a coronary event. Incidence rates were higher in patients with than without the presence of each of the modifiable risk factors, except obesity. Active smoking (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.51; 95% confidence interval [CI]: (1.07–2.13); p = 0.020), presence of diabetes (HR: 1.61; 95% CI: 1.18–2.18; p = 0.002), and hyperlipidemia (HR: 2.13; 95% CI: 1.45–3.14; p < 0.001) were independent predictors of future coronary events after CABG; they also displayed a progressive stepwise increment in the risk of long-term coronary events when cumulatively present. Conclusions In patients undergoing CABG, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and smoking, as documented preoperatively, were potentially modifiable risk factors that were independently and cumulatively associated with long-term risk of ACS or coronary revascularization, highlighting the importance of early identification and risk factors control for improving cardiovascular health after CABG.

Justification. The results of endovascular revascularization are largely determined by the type of stents used. The use of baremetal coronary stents significantly worsens the long-term results of endovascular treatment of coronary artery disease. Given the widespread use of bare-metal coronary stents in the Russian Federation for the treatment of coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndrome, in particular, the issue of the impact of the above-mentioned endovascular interventions on the long-term results of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) performed after endovascular revascularization of the clinically related artery in patients with acute coronary syndrome and multivessel lesions does not lose relevance.Aim. To compare the long-term results of the staged strategies of revascularization of the coronary bed: CABG performed after stenting the clinically related artery with third-generation biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stents for acute coronary syndrome and CABG performed after stenting the clinically related artery with bare-metal coronary stents for acute coronary syndrome.Material and Methods. The analysis used the data of two-year follow-up of patients who underwent two-stage revascularization: at the first stage, patients received stenting of the clinically related artery for acute coronary syndrome and, at the second stage, they received coronary artery bypass grafting no later than 90 days from the date of stenting. The study included 218 patients with multivessel lesions of the coronary bed, admitted with clinical manifestation of acute coronary syndrome. The long-term follow-up period was 24 months. The following end points were analyzed: cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, re-revascularization, and combined MACCE end point (cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, acute cerebrovascular accident, and re-revascularization). The observation was carried out at the hospital stage and, then, on an outpatient basis once every three months.Results. There were no significant differences between the groups. The frequency of repeated revascularization, including repeated revascularization of the stented artery, and recurrence of angina were significantly higher in the group with baremetal coronary stents. There were no significant differences between the groups in regard to cardiovascular mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction and acute cerebrovascular accidents. The frequency of MACCE events was significantly higher in the group of bare-metal coronary stents, mainly due to the frequency of repeated revascularizations.Conclusion. Coronary artery bypass grafting performed in the early period after stenting of the clinically related artery using bare-metal coronary stents in patients with acute coronary syndrome and multivessel lesions was associated with a significantly larger number of repeated coronary revascularizations and higher rate of recurrent angina compared to a similar strategy, but with the use of modern third-generation biodegradable polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stents.

Abstract OBJECTIVES Female gender is reported as an independent risk factor for a poor outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting. We analysed the influence of gender on surgical outcome in patients with single-vessel disease undergoing minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB). METHODS From January 1998 to December 2016, a total of 607 consecutive patients with single-vessel disease (31.9% women) underwent MIDCAB at our institution. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) were recorded during a median follow-up period of 8.0 years. Survival time was estimated for all patients and after applying propensity score matching (138 women vs 138 men). Multivariable Cox regression analysis identified risk factors predicting a long-term mortality rate. RESULTS In women, a longer surgical time (125 vs 113 min; P &lt; 0.001) and a higher transfusion rate were recorded (13.0% vs 5.1%; P = 0.001) with similar rates of in-hospital deaths (1.0% vs 0.5%; P = 0.60) and MACCE (1.5% vs 0.7%; P = 0.39). Survival and MACCE-free survival during the follow-up period did not differ significantly between genders (P = 1.0, P = 0.36). Survival and MACCE-free survival rates after 5 years were 94% and 90% in women compared to 91% and 86% in men. Propensity score matching demonstrated improved long-term survival rates in women (P = 0.029). Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, postoperative atrial fibrillation and prolonged intensive care unit stay were associated with long-term deaths for both genders, whereas obesity, former myocardial infarction and preoperative atrial fibrillation were significant risk factors in men. CONCLUSIONS Female patients showed no adverse outcomes after MIDCAB, although risk factors were gender-specific. Overall, MIDCAB demonstrated excellent short- and long-term results as a treatment for single-vessel disease in both genders.

Background A wrong traditional belief persists among people that opium consumption beneficially affects cardiovascular disease and its risk factors. However, no evidence exists regarding the effect of opium consumption or cessation on the long-term risk of major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events after coronary artery bypass grafting. We therefore aimed to evaluate the effect of persistent opium consumption after surgery on the long-term outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods The study population consisted of 28,691 patients (20,924 men, mean age 60.9 years), who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting between 2007 and 2016 at our centre. The patients were stratified into three groups according to the status of opium consumption: never opium consumers ( n = 23,619), persistent postoperative opium consumers ( n = 3636) and enduring postoperative opium withdrawal ( n = 1436). Study endpoints were 5-year mortality and 5-year major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events, comprising all-cause mortality, acute coronary syndrome, cerebrovascular accident and revascularisation. Results After surgery, 3636 patients continued opium consumption, while 1436 patients persistently avoided opium use. The multivariable survival analysis demonstrated that persistent post-coronary artery bypass grafting opium consumption increased 5-year mortality and 5-year major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events by 28% (hazard ratio (HR) 1.28, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06–1.54; P = 0.009) and 25% (HR 1.25, 95% CI 1.13–1.40; P < 0.0001), respectively. It also increased the 5-year risk of acute coronary syndrome by 34% (sub-distribution HR 1.34, 95% CI 1.16–1.55; P < 0.0001). Conclusions The present data suggest that persistent post-coronary artery bypass grafting opium consumption may significantly increase mortality, major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events and acute coronary syndrome in the long term. Future studies are needed to confirm our findings.

The rising volume of PCI is directly proportional to the representation of patients hospitalized for coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery who have a history of previous PCI procedures. This study aims to 1) identify the risk factors in patients requiring revascularization with prior PCI and 2) evaluate the surgical outcomes. Materials and method: This is a retrospective case series of patients with prior PCI undergoing elective CABG surgery at Hue Central Hospital. Results: From January 2012 and January 2017, 16 patients operated. The mean age was 64.6 ± 8.2. Mean Body Mass Index was 24.7 ± 1.8. The PCI and CABG gap was 2 years. Coronary risk factors including hypertension (87.5%), diabetes mellitus (81.3%), dyslipidemia (68.8%) and smoke (62.5%). All patients presented stable angina with 62.5% CCS class IV. Mean cardiopulmonary bypass time was 125.3 ± 19.5 minutes, 37.5% off - pump coronary surgery. Multi - bypass bypass grafting was performed in 87.5%. Surgical complications were recognized, including 43.8% bleeding, 12.5% atrial fibrillation, and 6.25% stroke. A case required an intra - aortic balloon pump during the postoperative period. Mean hospital stay was 27.4 ± 8.5 days. There was no mortality during hospitalization and 6 - month follow - up. Conclusion: Risk factors for surgical outcome in patients requiring coronary revascularization with prior PCI include diabetes mellitus, smoking, hypertension, time of CABG surgery after PCI, previously intervened vessels, coronary revascularization strategies, and left ventricular ejection fraction. CABG is an appropriate modality for reperfusion in these patients with positive early outcomes. Keywords: Percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass grafting, revascularization.
