Abstract   Left ventricular (LV) global function index (LVGFI) is a MRI marker of left ventricular remodeling. LVGFI has high predictive significance in young healthy individuals. The aim of the study was to assess prognostic significance in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We include into this analysis 2169 patients with ACS (1340 (61.8%) men and 829 (38.2%) women), mean age 64.08±12.601 years. All patients were observed in 2 Russian multicenter observational studies: ORACLE I (ObseRvation after Acute Coronary syndrome for deveLopment of trEatment options) (2004–2007 years) and ORACLE II (NCT04068909) (2014–2019 years). 1886 (87.0%) pts had arterial hypertension, 1539 (71.0%) – history of coronary artery disease, 647 (29.8%) – history of myocardial infarction, 444 (20.5%) - diabetes mellitus. Duration of the follow-up was 1 years after the hospital discharge. Cases of death from any cause, coronary deaths, repeated coronary events (fatal and non-fatal) were recorded. An echocardiographic study was conducted 5–7 days from the time of hospitalization. The LVGFI was defined as LV stroke volume/LV global volume × 100, where LV global volume was the sum of the LV mean cavity volume ((LV end-diastolic volume + LV end-systolic volume)/2) and myocardial volume (LV mass/density). During the follow-up, 193 deaths were recorded (8.9%), 122 deaths (5.6%) were coronary. In total, repeated coronary events were recorded in 253 (11.7%) patients. Mean LVGFI was 22.64±8.121%. Patients who died during the follow-up were older (73.03±10.936 years and 63.15±12.429 years, p=0.001), had a higher blood glucose level at the admission to the hospital (8.12±3.887 mmol/L and 7.17±3.355 mmol/L, p=0.041), serum creatinine (110.86±53.954 μmol/L and 99.25±30.273 μmol/L, p=0.007), maximum systolic blood pressure (196.3±25.17 mm Hg and 190.3±27.83 mm Hg, p=0.042). Those who died had a lower LVGFI value (19.75±6.77% and 23.01±8.243%, p<0.001). Myocardial mass index, ejection fraction and other left ventricular parameters did not significantly differ between died and alive patients. Among the patients who died, there were higher rate of women, pts with a history of myocardial infarction, heart failure, diabetes. In a multivariate analysis, diabetes mellitus OR1.67 95% CI [1.12–2.51] p=0.012, history of heart failure (1.78 [1.2.-2.59], p=0.003), a history of myocardial infarction (1.47 [1.05–2.05], p=0024), age (1.06 [1.05–1.08], p=0.001) and LVGFI <22% (1.53 [1.08–2.17], p=0.015) were independent predictors of death from any cause. The LVGFI was also independently associated with the risk of coronary death, but not with the risk of all recurring coronary events. Thus, LVGFI may be useful the marker to assess risk in patients who have experienced an ACS episode. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Acute Coronary syndrome (ACS) is the most common cause of admission to the coronary care unit with highest risk of death and adverse outcomes. ACS accounts for 60–70% of all admissions in the hospital. Patients with ACS encompass a heterogeneous group that varies widely regarding severity of the underlying coronary artery disease, prognosis and response to treatment. Patients with the highest risk of subsequent events usually have the largest benefit of an intensified pharmacological treatment and early mechanical intervention. The prognosis for low-risk patients, on the other hand, is often difficult to improve further and these patients usually benefit more from a conservative management with a lower risk of side effects. Therefore, risk stratification is essential and should be initiated early and updated continuously throughout the hospital stay. Early risk stratification is usually performed by the use of clinical background factors, clinical presentation, electrocardiography and biochemical markers of myocardial damage. Levels of natriuretic peptides have been shown to reflect cardiac performance. The aim of this study was to review elaborately on B type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) and its prognostic value in patient with ACS. This review focuses on the emerging role of these peptides in the early risk stratification of ACS patients. Elevation of BNP levels in acute MI and UA is predictive of a greater risk of death, post infarction heart failure, or  reinfarction. Post infarction studies demonstrate that elevated plasma BNP levels are associated with larger infarct size, increased probability of ventricular remodeling, lower ejection fraction, higher risk of heart failure, and increased mortality. This cardiac marker is a potent predictor of mortality in patients with all forms ACS. BNP measurements serve as an index of severity of the ischemic injury, as well as the degree of impairment in left ventricular function.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cmoshmcj.v13i2.21079

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 One of the novel echocardiographic indices reflecting left ventricular (LV) diastolic filling is the combination of mitral annular peak systolic (s’) and early diastolic velocities (e’) with early transmitral peak flow velocity (E); E/(e’ x s’). This index is reported to be useful to predict a prognosis of heart failure patients regardless of their LV ejection fraction (LVEF).Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine whether or not E/(e’ x s’) could predict cardiac events in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods: We studies consecutive ACS patients hospitalized in our institution between December 2009 and February 2012. They underwent echo examination within 7 days after admission. By use of Doppler tissue imaging, e’ and s’ were respectively calculated by averaging the peak velocities measured at both septal and lateral mitral annulus in 4-chamber view. The exclusion criteria were as follows: atrial fibrillation, significant valvular diseases and inadequate echo images. Cardiac events were defined as re-hospitalization due to recurrent ACS and/or heart failure, and cardiac mortality.Results: In total, 168 patients were eligible for this study (mean age 67 ± 11 years, mean LVEF 51.7 ± 10.3 %). Median follow-up period was 22.5 months. During the follow-up, cardiac events occurred in 27 patients (16.1%). Between the patients with cardiac events and those without, there were significant differences in LV end-systolic volume (44.2 ± 29.1 vs 33.2 ± 13.6 ml, p &lt; 0.05), LV mass index (122.4 ± 38.9 vs 107.5 ± 26.4 g/m², p &lt; 0.05), left atrial volume index (31.7 ± 9.2 vs 27.6 ± 9.4 ml/m², p &lt; 0.05), LVEF (45.7 ± 13.5 vs 52.9 ± 9.2 %, p &lt; 0.05), s’ (5.1 ± 1.6 vs 7.1 ± 1.7 cm/sec, p &lt; 0.001), e’ (4.8 ± 1.3 vs 6.0 ± 1.9 cm/sec, p &lt; 0.05), E/e’ (16.4 ± 6.6 vs 12.5 ± 4.9, p &lt; 0.05), E/(e’ x s’) (3.78 ± 2.52 vs 1.94 ± 1.08, p &lt; 0.001), and serum B-type natriuretic peptide (334.7 ± 420.1 vs 113.8 ± 177.2 pg/ml, p &lt; 0.05). While Cox proportional hazard multivariate analysis detected that E/(e’ x s’) and E/e’ were independent predictors of cardiac events, E/(e’ x s’) was more powerful than E/e’ (p = 0.0002 vs p = 0.0072). ROC analysis revealed that 2.35 of E/(e’ x s’) was the optimal cutoff values to predict cardiac events in ACS patients (AUC 0.79). Patients with E/(e’ x s’) &lt;2.35 had significantly better prognosis than the rest (p &lt; 0.0001, Log-rank; Figure)Conclusion: E/(e’ x s’) could be a useful echo marker to predict cardiac events in ACS patients.

Background: Patients with acute coronary syndrome complicated with high degree atrioventricular block still have a high mortality. A low percentage of these patients need a permanent pacemaker (PPM) but mortality and associated factors with the PPM implant in acute coronary syndrome patients are not known. We assess whether PPM implant is an independent variable in the mortality of acute coronary syndrome patients. Also, we explored the variables that remain independently associated with PPM implantation. Methods: This was an observational study on the Spanish ARIAM register. The inclusion period was from January 2001 to December 2011. This registry included all Andalusian acute coronary syndrome patients. Follow-up for global mortality was until November 2013. Results: We selected 27,608 cases. In 62 patients a PPM was implanted (0.024%). The mean age in PPM patients was 70.71±11.214 years versus 64.46±12.985 years in patients with no PPM. PPM implant was associated independently with age (odds ratio (OR) 1.031, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.007–1.055), with left ventricular branch block (OR 6.622, 95% CI 2.439–18.181), with any arrhythmia at intensive care unit admission (OR 2.754, 95% CI 1.506–5.025) and with heart failure (OR 3.344, 95% CI 1.78–8.333). PPM implant was independently associated with mortality (OR 11.436, 95% CI 1.576–83.009). In propensity score analysis PPM implant was still associated with mortality (OR 5.79, 95% CI 3.27–25.63). Conclusion: PPM implant is associated with mortality in the acute coronary syndrome population in the ARIAM registry. Advanced age, heart failure, arrhythmias and left ventricular branch block at intensive care unit admission were found associated factors with PPM implant in acute coronary syndrome patient.
