Abstract Background Phase contrast cine-magnetic resonance imaging (PC-CMR) of the coronary sinus (CS) is a promising approach for quantifying global coronary sinus flow (CSF) and global coronary flow reserve (G-CFR) without the need for ionizing radiation, radioactive tracers, or intravascular catheterization. Purpose We evaluated the prognostic value of G-CFR by quantifying CSF using PC-CMR in patients with ACS treated with primary or emergent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods The study prospectively enrolled 387 ACS patients who underwent uncomplicated primary or emergent PCI within 48 hours of symptom onset. Breath-hold PC-CMR images of CS were acquired to assess absolute CSF at rest and during maximum hyperemia within 30 days after primary PCI and revascularization of functionally significant non-culprit lesions of ACS. The association of G-CFR and baseline clinical characteristics with major adverse cardiac events (cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, late revascularization, or hospitalization for congestive heart failure) was investigated. Results In the final analysis of 366 patients (Male 294 (80.3%), mean age 65) including 233 patients (63.7%) with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and 133 patients (36.3%) with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS), rest and maximal hyperemic CSF and corrected G-CFR were 1.24 [0.83, 1.71] ml/min/g, 2.56 [1.87, 3.66] ml/min/g, and 2.20 [1.53, 3.17], respectively. During a median follow-up of 16 months, MACE occurred in 84 patients (cardiac death: 9, nonfatal myocardial infarction: 11, late revascularization: 59, hospitalization for congestive heart failure: 5). Cardiac event-free survival was significantly worse in patients with a corrected G-CFR <2.00 (log-rank χ2=20.2, P<0.001). Cox proportional hazards analysis showed that corrected G-CFR were independent predictors of adverse cardiac events during follow-up in patients with STEMI (hazard ratio, 0.66, 95% confidence interval, 0.51–0.85, p=0.001) and NSTE-ACS (hazard ratio, 0.64, 95% confidence interval, 0.43–0.95, p=0.026), respectively. Conclusions In ACS patients successfully revascularized within 48 hours of onset, G-CFR obtained by noninvasive PC-CMR provided significant prognostic information independent of infarction size and conventional risk scores.

Objectives: We sought to assess whether plasma neopterin predicts adverse clinical outcomes in patients with NSTEACS. Background: Circulating C reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation, correlates with events in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS). High neopterin levels - a marker of macrophage activation - predict cardiovascular events in stable angina patients but their prognostic role in NSTEACS has not been systematically evaluated. Methods: We prospectively assessed 397 patients (74 % men) admitted with NSTEACS: 169 (42.5%) had unstable angina and 228 (57.5%) non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Blood samples for neopterin and CRP assessment were obtained at admission. TIMI risk score was also assessed among other clinical and biochemical variables. The study end point was the composite of cardiac death, acute myocardial infarction and recurrent angina at 180-days. Results: Baseline neopterin concentrations (nmol/L) were similar in unstable angina and NSTEMI patients (8.3 [6.5–10.6] vs 8.0 [6.2–11.1], p = 0.54). Fifty-nine patients (14.9 %) had events during follow-up (highest third (%) 21.5 vs 1 st and 2 nd thirds 11.5, log rank 7.341, p = 0.007). On multivariable hazard Cox regression, only neopterin (highest vs 1 st and 2 nd thirds, HR 2.15, 95 % CI [1.21–3.81]) was independently associated with the combined endpoint.CRP levels, however, were not significantly different in patients with events compared to those without events (adjusted HR = 0.98, p = 0.89, 95% CI 0.80 –1.21). Conclusion: Increased neopterin levels are an independent predictor of 180-day adverse cardiac events in patients with NSTEACS.

Abstract Background/Introduction Although optimal revascularization strategy in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) was well established, there are few studies which investigated optimal revascularization strategy in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEM) with MVD. Purpose We investigated 2-year clinical outcomes according to strategy of revascularization in patients with NSTEMI and MVD. Methods Between November 2011 and October 2015, a total of 2474 patients with NSTEMI and MVD who underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention were analyzed from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry-National Institute of Health (staged 308, one-time 1043 and culprit-only 1123 patients). We did not include patients with left main disease and cardiogenic shock. Primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE: the composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction [MI] or target-vessel revascularization [TVR]) during 2-year follow-up (median 737 days [interquartile range 705–764]). We also analyzed the of all-cause mortality, stroke and non-TVR. Results Baseline characteristics such as age, gender, and prevalence of atherosclerotic risk factors between multivessel revascularization (MVR; staged or one-time revascularization) and CVR were similar. There was also no difference in symptom to balloon time in 2 groups. MACE occurred in 305 patients (12.3%) during 2-year follow-up. MVR could reduce incidence of MACE (10.2% vs. 14.9%; adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.50 for CVR, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.20–1.88, p<0.001), all-cause death (8.4% vs. 12.1%; adjusted HR 1.45 for CVR, 95% CI 1.13–1.87, p=0.003) and non-TVR (1,9% vs. 7.0%; adjusted HR 3.99 for CVR, 95% CI 2.55–6.27, p<0.001). There was no difference in incidence of stroke between MVR and CVR. We also analyzed same analysis between staged and one-time revascularization. Complete revascularization was more achieved in one-time revascularization group compared to staged revascularization group (62.0% vs. 76.1%, p<0.001). In multivariate Cox-regression analysis, staged revascularization was not associated with improved clinical outcomes in terms of MACE (HR 0.74, 95% CI 0.50–1.09, p=0.126), all-cause death (HR 1.07, 95% CI 0.69–1.68, p=0.759), stroke (HR 1.75, 95% CI 0.68–4.52, p=0.245) and non-TVR (HR 2.56, 95% CI 0.75–8.68, p=0.132). Analysis by propensity score matching and inverse probability of treatment weighting did not significantly affect the results. Conclusions MVR reduced 2-year adverse cardiac events in patients with NSTEMI and MVD compared to CVR. However, staged revascularization was not superior to one-time revascularization for reducing MACE among NSTEMI patients with MVD who received MVR.

Abstract Background Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is a useful instrument for the assessment of pathological and functional conditions without the need for ionizing radiation, radioactive tracers, or intravascular catheterization. Both unrecognized myocardial infarction (UMI) and impaired global myocardial blood flow (g-MBF) have been reported to be strongly associated with worse outcome in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, their combined efficacy remains undetermined. Purpose We sought to assess the prognostic value of the presence of UMI and pre-procedural hyperemic g-MBF evaluated by phase-contrast cine magnetic resonance imaging (PC-CMR) in patients with chronic coronary syndrome who underwent elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods A total of 177 patients with de novo functionally significant stenosis who underwent pre-PCI CMR and PCI between September, 2016 and March, 2019 were retrospectively studied. UMI was defined as a scar detected by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) without previously diagnosed MI. g-MBF was assessed by quantifying coronary sinus flow using PC-CMR at rest and hyperemic state. The predictors of major adverse cardiac events (MACE; cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, clinically driven unplanned revascularization, or hospitalization for congestive heart failure) during follow-up were investigated. Results UMI was detected in 40 (27.7%) patients and rest and maximal hyperemic g-MBF evaluated by the coronary sinus flow obtained by PC-CMR were 0.95 ml/min/g and 2.26 ml/min/g, respectively. During the median follow-up of 26 months, cardiovascular death occurred in 1 patient (0.6%), nonfatal myocardial infarction occurred in 4 patients (2.3%), and clinically driven revascularization and hospitalization due to congestive heart failure occurred in 25 patients (14.1%) and 3 patients (1.7%) patients, respectively. In patients with MACE, hyperemic g-MBF was significantly lower and the prevalence of UMI were significantly higher compared with those without MACE (1.94 ml/min/g vs 2.36 ml/min/g P=0.014; 48.3% vs 23.6%, P=0.011). Cox proportional hazards model indicated that impaired hyperemic g-MBF (&lt;2.00 ml/min/g) and the presence of UMI were significant predictors of MACE (HR 2.22, 95% CI 1.060–4.640, P=0.034; HR 2.660, 95% CI 1.290–5.470, P=0.008). During follow-up, cardiac event-free survival was significantly worse in patients with impaired hyperemic g-MBF (&lt;2.00 ml/min/g) and UMI (log-rank χ2=11.0, P=0.010). Conclusion In patients with chronic coronary syndrome undergoing elective PCI, the combined assessment of UMI and hyperemic g-MBF obtained by preprocedural noninvasive CMR may provide significant prognostic information.

Abstract Background Both unstable angina (UA) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) are still classified together in non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndromes despite the fact they substantially differ in both clinical profile and prognosis. Purpose The aim of the present study was to evaluate contemporary clinical characteristics and outcomes of UA patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in comparison with stable angina (SCAD) and myocardial infarction (NSTEMI as well as STEMI) in Swietokrzyskie District of Poland in years 2014–2017. Methods A total of 7'187 patients after PCI from ORPKI Registry (38% with diagnosis of UA) were included into the analysis. Impact of clinical presentation (UA, SCAD, NSTEMI, STEMI) on 3-year outcomes were determined. Results UA patients were older that SCAD but younger than NSTEMI individuals. Diabetes and hypertension were more often encountered into UA group than in NSTEMI but less often than in SCAD cases. In UA group the percentage of previous myocardial infarction (MI), PCI or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was the highest among all analyzed groups. In 3-year observation the risk of death as well as myocardial infarction (MI) and major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in unstable angina after PCI was higher than in stable angina but considerably lower than in NSTEMI group. Multivariate analysis confirmed that prognosis in NSTEMI was substantially worse in comparison with UA (RR 1.365, 95% CI: 1.126–1.655, p=0.0015). On the contrary there were no difference in mortality risk between UA and SCAD patients (RR 1.189, 95% CI: 0.932–1.518, p=0.1620). Parallel results were observed in respect of MI and MACE. Independ predictors of death were: age, kidney disease, hypertension, diabetes, previous stroke or previous PCI. Multivariate logistic regression analyse Clinical presentation Death Myocardial infarction MACE RR 95% CI p-value RR 95% CI p-value RR 95% CI p-value NSTEMI/UA 1.365 1.126–1.655 0.0015 1.822 1.076–3.055 0.0260 1.514 1.267–1.807 <0.0001 NSTEMI/SCAD 1.624 1.251–2.109 0.0003 1.882 0.982–3.789 0.0568 1.604 1.275–2.094 <0.0001 UA/SCAD 1.189 0.932–1.518 0.1620 1.033 0.557–2.034 0.9219 1.060 0.855–1.323 0.6023 MACE, major adverse cardiac events; NSTEMI, non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; UA, unstable angina; SCAD, stable angina. Conclusion Unstable angina accounted for 38% of all cases and was the most common diagnosis in patients that underwent PCI in that time. 3-year prognosis in UA was considerable better in comparison with NSTEMI. On contrary there was no difference in outcomes (death, MI, MACE) between UA and SCAD patients.

Abstract Background Myocardial infarction (MI) in nonagenarians is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Nonetheless, this population has typically been underrepresented in cardiovascular clinical trials. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate outcomes of nonagenarian patients presenting with MI who underwent either conservative or invasive management. Methods We retrospectively included all consecutive patients equal to or older than 90yo admitted with non-ST segment elevation (NSTEMI) or ST segment elevation MI (STEMI) in four tertiary care centers between 2005 and 2018. Patients with type 2 myocardial infarction were excluded. We collected patients' baseline characteristic and procedural data. In-hospital and at 1-year follow-up all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events were assessed. Results 523 patients (mean age 92.6±2 years; 60% females) were analyzed. Overall, 184 patients (35.2%) underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), increasing over the years, mostly in STEMI group (from 16% of patients in 2005 to 75% in 2018). PCI was preferred in those subjects with less prevalence of disability for activities of daily living (p&lt;0.01). The use of a radial access (76.6%) and bare metal stents (52.7%) was predominant. No significant differences were found in the incidence of major bleeding events or MI-related mechanical complications between both strategies. During index hospitalization, 99 (18.9%) patients died. Whereas no differences were found in the NSTEMI group (p=0.61), a significant lower in-hospital mortality was observed in STEMI group treated with PCI (p&lt;0.01). At one-year follow up, 203 (38.8%) patients died, most of them due to a cardiovascular cause (60.6%). PCI was related to a lower all-cause mortality in either NSTEMI (p&lt;0.01) or STEMI groups (p&lt;0.01) however, lower cardiovascular mortality was only found in STEMI group (p=0.03). Conclusion An invasive approach was performed in over a third of nonagenarian patients, carrying prognostic implications and with a few numbers of complications. PCI seems to be the preferred strategy for STEMI in this high-risk population in spite of age. Figure 1 Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Purpose. The study aims to determine the impact of dysthyroidism on the severity and type of coronary lesion, on vascular function, as well as on the morbidity and mortality of patients with acute coronary syndrome, by finding predictive markers that can be translated into preventive measures that contribute substantially to reduce the number of newly diagnosed patients with coronary heart disease. Methods. We introduced in the study 100 patients recently diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome, without history of ischemic heart disease or thyroid disease, hospitalized in the Cardiology Clinic of the “Bagdasar-Arseni“ Emergency Clinical Hospital Bucharest, for the interventional treatment of acute coronary syndrome. The studied patients were hospitalized between November 2014 and April 2015, with regular follow-up of up to 5 years (telephone or direct interview, conducted at 6 months, 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, 48 months, 60 months), with an average period follow-up of 1006 days, evaluated clinically, bio-humorally, by echocardiography, explored with coronary angiography with the calculation of the SYNTAX score and with the performance of electrocardiogram and pulse wave. The obtained data were integrated in Excel sheets and statistically processed with the Python program. Results. The mortality rate in the patient group was 7% (7 deaths). Descriptively, of the deceased, 6 patients (86%) were male, and as thyroid status 1 hyperthyroid patient (14%), 3 hypothyroid patients (43%) and 3 patients (43%) normothyroid. There were 4 deaths (8%) in the group of patients with unstable angina and 3 deaths (8%) in the group of patients with myocardial infarction without ST-segment elevation. There were no deaths in the group of patients with acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation. At follow-up, 41 patients (41%) were readmitted. Re-hospitalization was influenced by elevated values of mean blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and C-reactive protein, unicoronary atherosclerotic disease and unstable angina at admission. At follow-up, the development of noncardiac events was noted in the evolution of patients, diabetes mellitus occurring in the majority, in almost a quarter of patients (22 patients, respectively 24% developed diabetes over time), 34% (19 patients) in euthyroidism and 8% (3 patients) dysthyroidism. Discussions. Predictive factors for the readmission of the patient with acute coronary syndrome are highlighted the following: increased level of C-reactive protein (p = 0.017), tricoronary vascular damage (p = 0.01), diastolic blood pressure greater than 80 mmHg (p = 0.025), and euthyroid status (p = 0.04). The probability of death for the patient with acute coronary syndrome rises to 66% in the presence of severe systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle (p = 0.006), and to 61% in the case of elevated values of hs troponin I (p = 0.008). In our study, the presence of dysthyroidism in the patient with acute coronary syndrome has a protective role in the development of diabetes in the first 5 years (p = 0.025). Conclusion. Dysthyroidism is associated with increased morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease.

Aim. To investigate the impact of hyperglycemia on the results of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (ASTEMI). Subjects and methods. A study group consisted of 511 patients with hyperglycemia (blood glucose level (BGL) ≥7.77 mmol/L) who underwent primary PCIs in the period from 2005 to 2015. A comparison group included 579 patients (BGL ≥7.77 mmol/L). Results. Assessment of the results of hospital interventions revealed that the mortality rates in patients with hyperglycemia proved to be higher than in those with normal BGL (6.5 and 2.6%, respectively; p=0.002). No differences were found in the rates of stent thrombosis (1 and 1.4%; p=0.541) and recurrent myocardial infarction (1.2 and 1.6%; p=0.591). Major adverse cardiac events, including death, recurrent infarction, and stent thrombosis, were more frequently determined in the hyperglycemic patients (7.6 and 4.3%; p=0.020). No-reflow phenomenon statistically significantly more frequently developed in the patients with hyperglycemia (6.8 and 3.3%; p=0.007). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of hyperglycemia served as an independent predictor of hospital mortality (odds ratio (OR) 2.6; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.4 to 4.8; p=0.002). The application of a random probability sampling technique revealed that mortality remained statistically significantly higher in the hyperglycemic patients than in the normoglycemic individuals at admission (6.7 and 2.6%; р=0.011). Conclusion. PCIs in patients with ASTEMI and hyperglycemia are characterized by higher mortality rates and the risk of major adverse cardiac events. Admission hyperglycemia is an independent predictor of hospital mortality.
