Abstract Introduction Distal embolization may compromise the results of primary angioplasty. Our aim is to analyze the influence of the speed of deflation of the stent delivery system on the myocardial blush ≥2 and on the ST-Segment resolution ≥70%. Methods From December 2016 to February 2019, all consecutive patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction who underwent urgent coronary angiography at our institution who were susceptible of thrombectomy, IIB-IIIA inhibitors and direct stenting were randomized 1:1 to fast deflation of the stent delivery system (group 1, n=103) or to slow deflation at 1 atm/second (group 2, n=107). Pre- and postdilatation was not allowed per protocol. The primary outcomes were the myocardial blush ≥2 and the ST-Segment resolution ≥70% while the size of myocardial damage, ejection fraction at discharge and at 12 months and total and cardiovascular mortality at 12 months were the secondary outcomes. A multivariate analysis was performed to analyze the influence of the speed of deflation of the stent delivery system in both primary end-points in case of possible imbalances among groups despite the randomization. Results Both groups represented 47% of the 447 procedures of primary angioplasty performed in that period. Baseline characteristics of the whole cohort: female gender 46 (21.9%), age 59.5±10.6 years, diabetes 35 (16.7%), Killip class IV 5 (2.4%), total ischemic time 177.5 (124–275) minutes and door to balloon time 84 (66–120.5) minutes. There were not differences in clinical or angiographic characteristics between both groups, although there was a non-significant trend towards larger reference vessel diameter in the slow deflation group (2.74±0.42 vs. 2.86±0.47, p=0.07). The study was prematurely stopped with 50% of the calculated sample size due to futility. The primary endpoint of myocardial blush ≥2 occurred in 77 (74.7%) vs. 79 (75.2%), p=0.93 and ST-Segment resolution ≥70% in 54 (53.9%) vs. 59 (55.5%), p=0.75 in group 1 and 2, respectively, without differences in any of the secondary endpoints. The speed of deflation of the stent delivery system did not show any influence on the MB or ST-Segment resolution ≥70% in the multivariate analysis. Predictors of myocardial blush ≥2 were systolic blood pressure at admission, creatinine clearance <60 ml/min and maximal diameter postprocedure. Diabetes, previous infarction, left anterior descending, TIMI ≥2 before intervention, TIMI 3 after intervention and collateral supply grade ≥2 were predictors of ST segment resolution≥70% with an area under the curve of 0.71 (0.63–0.80) and 0.75 (0.68–0.82), respectively. Conclusions In our series, the speed of deflation of the stent delivery system in primary angioplasty did not modified the myocardial blush ≥2 or ST-Segment resolution ≥70% and neither showed any influence in clinical outcomes, size of myocardial infarction by biomarkers and ejection fraction.

Abstract Background Malnutrition and sarcopenia are common features of frailty. Prevalence of frailty among ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients is higher in women than men. Purpose Assess gender-based differences in the impact of nutritional risk index (NRI) and frailty in one-year mortality rate among STEMI patients following primary angioplasty (PA). Methods Cohort of 321 consecutive patients (64 years [54–75]; 22.4% women) admitted to a general ICU after PA for STEMI. NRI was calculated as 1.519 × serum albumin (g/L) + 41.7 × (actual body weight [kg]/ideal weight [kg]). Vulnerable and moderate to severe NRI patients were those with Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS)≥4 and NRI<97.5, respectively. We used Kaplan-Meier survival model. Results Baseline and mortality variables of 4 groups (NRI-/CFS-; NRI+/CFS-; NRI+/CFS- and NRI+/CFS+) are depicted in the Table. Prevalence of malnutrition, frailty or both were significantly greater in women (34.3%, 10% y 21.4%, respectively) than in men (28.9%, 2.8% y 6.0%, respectively; P<0.001). Women had greater mortality rate (20.8% vs. 5.2%: OR 4.78, 95% CI, 2.15–10.60, P<0.001), mainly from cardiogenic shock (P=0.003). Combination of malnutrition and frailty significantly decreased cumulative one-year survival in women (46.7% vs. 73.3% in men, P<0.001) Conclusion Among STEMI patients undergoing PA, the prevalence of malnutrition and frailty are significantly higher in women than in men. NRI and frailty had an independent and complementary prognostic impact in women with STEMI. Kaplan-Meier and Cox survival curves Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Aim    To analyze associations between levels of the inflammatory marker, growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), and echocardiographic indexes in CHF patients with mid-range and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LV EF) depending on the history of myocardial infarction (MI).Material and methods    This study included 34 CHF patients with preserved and mid-range LV EF after MI (group 1, n=19) and without a history of MI (group 2, n=15). Serum concentration of GDF-15 was measured with enzyme immunoassay (BioVendor, Czech Republic). Statistical analysis was performed with STATISTICA 10.0.Results    Patients of the study groups were age-matched [62 (58;67) and 64 (60;70) years, p=0.2] but differed in the gender; group 1 consisted of men only (100 %) whereas in group 2, the proportion of men was 53.3 % (p=0.001). Median concentration of GDF-15 was 2385 (2274; 2632.5) and 1997 (1534;2691) pg/ml in groups 1 and 2, respectively (p=0.09). Patients without MI showed a moderate negative correlation between LV EF and GDF-15 concentration (r= – 0.51, p=0.050) and a pronounced correlation between GDF-15 and LV stroke volume (r= –0.722, p=0.002). For patients after MI, a correlation between the level of GDF-15 and the degree of systolic dysfunction was not found (р>0.05).Conclusion    Blood concentration of the inflammatory marker, GDF-15, correlates with LV EF and stroke volume in CHF patients with preserved or mid-range LV EF and without a history of MI while no such correlations were observed for patients with a history of MI.

Early Phases

ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a life-threatening conditioning caused by an abrup occlusion of an epicardial coronary artery. Reperfusion (ideally by primary angioplasty, and if not timely available by systemic fibrinolysis) massively improves survival in STEMI patients. Healthcare systems attending STEMI patients in the early phase are critical for a correct triage, reperfusion strategy selection and initial treatment. Besides reperfusion, coadjuvant therapies are critical to improve the success of management and in turn improves long-term mortality and morbidility associated with STEMI. The present chapter presents the state-of-art evidence guiding recommendations for treatment of STEMI with a special focus on the early phases of the process.

Abstract Background The occurrence of HF (heart failure) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) has risen significantly over the past decade. Galectin-3 (Gal-3) and soluble ST2 (sST2) are involved in inflammatory processes and fibrosis and might be useful in estimation of the risk of HFpEF development after myocardial infarction (MI).Purpose: To investigate the association of Gal-3 and sST2, and their follow-up changeswith echocardiographic parameters of systolic and diastolic dysfunctionin patients (pts) with ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI). Methods:A prospective, observational study, BIOSTRAT (NCT03735719), enrolled 117 pts. Gal-3 and sST2 serum collection and echocardiography were performed twice (during index hospitalization and on a control visit at one-year follow-up). Assessedat baseline and at one-year echocardiographic indices included left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), atrial and ventricular size, LV posterior wall and septal thickness, LV hypertrophy based on LV mass index, mitral inflow velocities, and early diastolic tissue velocities at the lateral and medial mitral annulus. Results:Mean baseline concentrations of Gal-3 and sST2 (7.5 and 26.4 ng/mL, respectively) were increased at one-year follow-up (8.5 ng/mL, p < 0.001 and 31.4 ng/mL, p = 0.001, respectively). Fifty of 105 pts (48%) developed HF and 30% of the study population had LVEF <50% at one-year. There were no significant differences between pts with LVEF <50% and ≥50% in terms of baseline, follow-up, nor changes in Gal-3 and sST2 concentrations from baseline to the one-year visit. Gal-3 and sST2 concentrations at baseline, after one-year, and their changes were correlated with echocardiographic parameters. Correlation analysis revealed that higher baseline Gal-3 concentrations correlated inversely only with LV end-diastolic volume at one-year. There were no other significant correlations of baseline, follow-up, nor changes in Gal-3 concentration with echocardiographic parameters. Baseline sST2 values correlated positively with LV end-diastolic diameter, LV end-systolic volume, LV mass index, and inversely with LVEF at one-year, but not with baseline echocardiographic parameters. Changes in sST2 concentration correlated positively only with LVEF at one-year. There were no significant correlations of sST2 concentrations at follow-up with echocardiographic parameters. Only pts with a higher sST2 baseline level had lower LVEF at baseline and after one-year, and pts with higher concentrations of both Gal-3 and sST2 at baseline were more likely to have LV hypertrophy initially and after one-year. There was no clear association of rising biomarkers’ quartiles with other echocardiographic parameters. Conclusions:There was no clear association between both biomarkers and echocardiographic parametersof diastolic dysfunction. Increasing levels of Gal-3 and sST2 do not reflect the HFpEF development in pts after STEMI.
