Abstract Background Patients undergoing heart valve surgery are routinely evaluated for the presence of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), with the standard practice of combining valve intervention with a revascularization procedure, notably Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG). Older studies suggest rates as high as 50% prevalence of CAD in this population. However, CAD prevalence, its treatment and prognostic implication has been questioned recently. Objectives The goal of this study is to evaluate the baseline characteristics, prevalence of CAD and treatment strategies in a contemporary population with valvular heart disease (VHD) referred for valve surgery. Methods In a national multicentre registry, consecutive patients, from Jan 2015 to Dec 2016, with a formal indication for heart valve surgery referred for a pre-op routine coronary angiogram were systematically analysed. Baseline characteristics, valve pathology and CAD prevalence and patterns were determined. Obstructive CAD was defined as luminal angiographic stenosis ≥70% (≥50% for left main artery). The prognostic impact of the different valve disease and CAD treatment strategies were assessed. Results 1175 patients (mean age 72.5±10.1; male 49.2%) fulfilled the clinical or echocardiographic indication for valve surgery by European guidelines. Valvular disease prevalence was: aortic stenosis (66.7%), aortic regurgitation (6.6%), mitral stenosis (6%), mitral regurgitation (19.2%), tricuspid regurgitation (7.5%). Mean follow-up time was 29.06±18.46 months. Prevalence of comorbidities was: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) 26%, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) 5.7% and chronic kidney disease (CKD) 23.4%. Mean Euroscore II was 2.6%. Obstructive CAD was present in 27.3% patients. Mean Syntax score was 10.2 (<22 in 88%, 23–32 in 10.2% and >33 in 1.8%). Left main artery and 3-vessel disease were found in 13.1% and 11.8% of patients with CAD, respectively. Valvular surgery was ultimately performed in 80.3%. In patients with CAD, 57.3% were revascularized. All-cause mortality rate during follow-up was 12.9%, with 7.8% from cardiovascular causes. In univariate analysis DM, COPD, CKD, NYHA class, obstructive CAD and no surgery (p<0.05) were associate with mortality on follow up. In multivariate analysis obstructive CAD (OR 2.36, 95% CI 1.53–3.65, p<0.01) and no surgery (OR 6.05, 95% CI 3.95–9.30, p<0.01) persisted as independent all-cause mortality predictors. Conclusion In a contemporary cohort of patients with VHD and surgical indication, CAD prevalence is lower (27.3%) than described in literature. Mortality rates were higher in patients with obstructive CAD, worse NYHA functional class and in those who never underwent surgery.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background-Whether Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) confers a survival benefit in patients with diabetes mellitus(DM) and complex coronary artery disease (CAD), including left main CAD and multivessel coronary disease (MVD) after a follow up period ≥ 5 years remains unknown. Methods- Electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane) were searched from inception to December 12th 2020. Using a generic invariance weighted random effects model, Hazard ratios (HRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) from individual studies were converted to Log HRs and corresponding standard errors, which were then pooled. The primary outcome of interest was all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) which was defined as a composite of death, myocardial reinfarction and stroke at ≥ 5 years. Results-A total of 8 studies with 13336 participants(PCI = 6783, CABG = 6553)were included in our analysis. Mean age was 54.6 and 55.3 in the PCI-DES and CABG groups respectively. The 5-yr follow-up outcomes including all-cause mortality (HR 1.37; 95%CI 1.15-1.65; p = 0.0006, I2 = 0)and MACCE (HR 1.48; 95%CI 1.29-1.69; p &lt; 0.00001, I2 = 0) were significantly higher with PCI as compared to CABG. Furthermore, at &gt;5 year follow-up, all-cause mortality (HR 1.35; 95%CI 1.10-1.66; p = 0.004, I2 = 37) and MACCE (HR 1.98; 95%CI 1.85-2.12; p &lt; 0.00001, I2 = 0) had similar outcomes. Conclusion-Amongst patients with DM and Complex CAD ( left main/MVD), CABG was associated with improved long-term mortality and freedom from MACCEs as opposed to PCI-DES. CABG is the preferred revascularization strategy in patients with complex anatomic disease and concurrent diabetes. Abstract Figure.

Abstract Background Optimal management of stable obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients (pts) undergoing heart valve surgery remains controversial. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effective prognostic role of CABG in pts undergoing valve surgery who had concomitant CAD. Methods We conducted a retrospective multicenter survival analysis using multivariable Cox models and Kaplan-Meier curves of consecutive pts undergoing valve surgery with or without concomitant CABG between January 2015 and February 2017. Results From 1196 consecutive pts undergoing valvular surgery in 3 portuguese centers, 257 (21.5%) were found to have obstructive CAD (55.6% male, mean age 74±8 y.o., mean follow-up time 16±8 months, aortic valve disease 78.8%). No coronary revascularization (R) was attempted in 177 pts, complete R was achieved in 40 and R was anatomically incomplete in the remaining 40 pts. Age (75 vs 77.3 y.o.; p=0.202), multivessel disease (46.3% vs 53.8%, p=0.270), aortic valve disease (91.0% vs 92.5%, p=0.683), left ventricular ejection fraction <40% (11.8% vs 19.4%, p=0.272) were comparable between nonrevascularized and revascularized pts; SYNTAX score was low and also similar in both groups (7±12 vs 7±5, p=0.856). Left main disease (8.5% vs 17.5%, p=0.034) and EUROSCORE IIrisk score (2.3±2 vs 3.2±2, p=0.011) was higher for those with any revascularization. Non-revascularized pts had significantly lower all-cause mortality at follow up than those with any R (10.2% vs 21.2%, p=0.016). However, both in-hospital (4% vs 7.5%, p=0.230) and cardiovascular mortality (6.9% vs 7.1%, p=1.00) were similar. In a multivariate analysis, independent predictors for all-cause mortality were: any surgical R (HR 4.52, CI95% 2.09–9.78), baseline atrial fibrillation (HR 2.51, CI95% 1.07–5.90), left main disease (HR 3.153, CI95% 1.26–7.90) and peripheral artery disease (HR 2.95, CI95% 1.036–8.421). All-cause mortality for pts with obstructive CAD was higher than in pts with no CAD (13.6% vs 6.2, p<0.001). Interestingly, however, after multivariable adjustment, complete R was not found to be protective as compared to no R (HR 0.79, IC 0.31–2.06, p=0.633) Kaplan-Meier Plots Conclusion Significant CAD is associated with worse outcomes in pts undergoing valve surgery. In this study, standard angiographically-guided R was not associated with improved results. Randomized controlled trials are needed to further assess risk stratification and the role of coronary R of stable CAD in this setting.

Abstract Background The optimal revascularization technique in diabetic patients with complex coronary artery disease (CAD), including left main CAD and multivessel coronary disease (MVD), remains controversial. The current study aimed to compare adverse clinical endpoints of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods Relevant studies were found from MEDLINE, OVID, Science Direct, Embase and the Cochrane Central database from January 2010 to April 2019. Risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to express the pooled effect on discontinuous variables. Outcomes evaluated were all-cause mortality, major adverse cardiac/cerebrovascular events (MACCE), cardiac death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and repeat revascularization. Results Sixteen studies were included (18,224 patients). PCI was associated with the increase risk for MACCE (RR 1.59, 95% CI 1.38–1.85), cardiac death (RR 1.76, 95% CI 1.11–2.80), MI (RR 1.98, 95% CI 1.53–2.57), repeat revascularization (RR 2.61, 95% CI 2.08–3.29). The risks for all-cause mortality (RR 1.23, 95% CI 1.00–1.52) and stroke (RR 0.71, 95% CI 0.48–1.03) were similar between two strategies. Stratified analysis based on studies design and duration of follow-up showed largely similar findings with the overall analyses, except for a significant increased risk of all-cause mortality (RR 1.32, 95% CI 1.04–1.67) in long-term group, and CABG was associated with a higher stroke rate compared to PCI, which are results that were found in RCTs (RR 0.47, 95% CI 0.28–0.79) and mid-term groups (RR 0.39, 95% CI 0.23–0.66). Conclusions CABG was superior to PCI for diabetic patients with complex CAD (including left main CAD and/or MVD), but might be associated with a higher risk of stroke mid-term follow-up.

Background Several trials reported differential outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention with drug‐eluting stents (DES) and coronary‐artery bypass grafting (CABG) for multivessel coronary disease according to the presence of diabetes mellitus (DM). However, it is not well recognized how DM status affects very‐long‐term (10‐year) outcomes after DES and CABG for left main coronary artery disease. Methods and Results In the PRECOMBAT (Premier of Randomized Comparison of Bypass Surgery versus Angioplasty using Sirolimus‐Eluting Stent in Patients with Left Main Coronary Artery Disease) trial, patients with LMCA were randomly assigned to undergo PCI with sirolimus‐eluting stents (n=300) or CABG (n=300). The primary outcome was the incidence of major adverse cardiac or cerebrovascular events (MACCE; a composite of death from any cause, myocardial infarction, stroke, or ischemia‐driven target‐vessel revascularization). Outcomes were examined in patients with (n=192) and without (n=408) medically treated diabetes. The follow‐up was extended to at least 10 years for all patients (median, 11.3 years). The 10‐year rates of MACCE were not significantly different between DES and CABG in patients with DM (36.3% versus 26.7%, respectively; hazard ratio [HR], 1.35; 95% CI, 0.83–2.19; P =0.23) and without DM (25.3% versus 22.9%, respectively; HR, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.79–1.67; P =0.48) ( P ‐for‐interaction=0.48). There were no significant between‐group differences in composite of death, MI, or stroke, and all‐cause mortality, regardless of DM status. TVR rates were consistently higher after DES than CABG. Conclusions In this 10‐year extended follow‐up of PRECOMBAT, we found no significant difference between DES and CABG with respect to the incidences of MACCE, serious composite outcome, and all‐cause mortality in patients with and without DM with LMCA disease. However, owing to the limited number of patients and no adjustment for multiple testing, overall findings should be considered hypothesis‐generating, highlighting the need for further research.

AbstractThe approach to left main coronary artery disease (CAD) in diabetic patients has been extensively debated. Diabetic patients have an elevated risk of left main disease in addition to multivessel disease. Previous trials have shown increased revascularization rates in percutaneous coronary intervention compared with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) but overall comparable outcomes, although many of these studies were not using the latest stent technology or CABG with arterial revascularization. Our aim is to review the most recent trials that have recently published long-term follow-up, as well as other literature pertaining to left main disease in diabetic patients. Furthermore, we will be discussing some future treatment strategies that could likely create a paradigm shift in how left main CAD is managed.

Introduction: Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (heFH) is characterized by high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and increased risk for premature coronary artery disease (CAD) and death. Reduction of CAD and mortality by statins has not been properly quantified in heFH. The aim of the current study is to determine the effect of statins on CAD and mortality in heFH. Methods: All adult heFH patients identified by the Dutch FH screening program between 1994 and 2014 and registered in the PHARMO Database Network were eligible. Of these patients we obtained hospital, pharmacy (in- and outpatient), and mortality records in the period between 1995 and 2015. The effect of statins (time-varying) on CAD and all-cause mortality was determined using a Cox proportional hazard model, while correcting for the use of other lipid-lowering therapy, thrombocyte aggregation inhibitors, antihypertensive and antidiabetic medication (all time-varying). Furthermore, we used inverse probability for treatment weighting (IPTW) to account for differences between statin-treated and untreated patients regarding history of CAD before follow-up, age at start of follow-up and age of screening, as well as body mass index, LDL-C and triglycerides. Results: Of the 25,479 identified heFH patients, 11,021 gave informed consent to obtain their medical records, of whom 2,447 could be retrieved. We excluded 766 patients younger than 18. The remaining 1,681 heFH patients comprised our study population and these had very similar characteristics as compared to the 23,798 excluded FH patients, e.g. mean (SD) LDL-C levels were 214 (74) vs. 203 (77) mg/dL. Among 1,151 statin users, there were 133 CAD events and 15 deaths during 10,115 statin treated person-years, compared to 17 CAD events and 9 deaths during 4,965 person-years in 530 never statin users (combined rate: 14.6 vs. 5.2, respectively, p<0.001). After applying IPTW to account for indication bias and correcting for use of other medications, the hazard ratio of statin use for CAD and all-cause mortality was 0.61 (0.40 - 0.93). Conclusions: In heFH patients, statins lower the risk for CAD and mortality by 39%.

Abstract Introduction Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with left main (LM) coronary artery disease is acquiring an important role in the last years as an alternative to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in selected patients. The objective of the study was to evaluate predictors of mortality in patients with LM coronary artery disease treated with PCI. Methods Prospective and observational study of consecutive patients referred to our centre for coronary angiography, with LM coronary artery disease, whom PCI was decided in a “Heart team” as a strategy for revascularization between July 2015 and December 2017. Baseline clinical, analytical and coronary angiography data were collected. Follow-up was conducted in person or by telephone for a minimum of one year. We analysed the predictive variables of mortality by means of an uni and multivariate logistic regression model. In addition, a survival analysis was performed. Results A total of 191 patients were recruited. The average age was 72 years (±11.4), 79% males. 42% had previous documented coronary artery disease. PCI was performed in the context of acute coronary syndrome in 81% of them. The mean follow-up period was 17.9 months (± 8.3). After multivariate analysis, the following variables remained as independent predictors of mortality: the hemodynamic situation of the patient, assessed by the Killip-Kimball scale (OR 1.58, 95% CI 1.03–2.43; p=0.04) and the presence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) (OR 2.61, 95% CI 1.03–6.67; p=0.04) (table 1). The ROC curve of the multivariate model showed an AUC of 0.796 (figure 1A). In the survival analysis, patients with PAD had a significantly lower survival, with a median survival of 6 months, compared to 13.9 months in those without PAD, with p=0.008 (figure 1B). Uni and multivariate analysis Univariate analysis Multivariate analysis OR (95% CI) p OR (95% CI) p Killip-Kimbal scale 1.94 (1.39–2.72) 0 1.58 (1.03–2.43) 0.04 LVEF 0.96 (0.93–0.99) 0.01 0.99 (0.95–1.03) 0.46 Mitral regurgitation 2.54 (1.12–5.63) 0.02 1.60 (0.55–4.56) 0.38 Number of affected vessels 1.96 (1.24–3.29) 0.01 1.78 (1.03–3.37) 0.05 PAD 2.54 (1.16–5.49) 0.02 2.61 (1.03–6.67) 0.,04 Figure 1 Conclusion Although PCI revascularization of LM coronary artery disease is an attractive alternative to CABG in selected patients, a word of caution should be raised in patients with PAD, as in the present study this variable was an important predictor of short-medium term mortality.
