Abstract Aims High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) has been associated with high risk of ischaemic events in STEMI patients. Body mass index (BMI) and specifically overweight and obesity are risk factors for increased platelet reactivity in different series of patients; however, data regarding their relationship with pharmacodynamic response to oral 3rd generation P2Y12 inhibitors is still lacking. This study aims to assess the association between BMI and HTPR in STEMI patients treated with oral 3rd generation P2Y12 inhibitors. Methods Overall, 429 STEMI patients were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups according to BMI (BMI <25 vs. ≥25 kg/m2). A propensity score matching (1:1) was performed to balance potential confounders in baseline patients characteristics. Platelet reactivity was assessed by VerifyNow at baseline and after 3rd generation P2Y12 inhibitor (ticagrelor or prasugrel) loading dose (LD). Blood samples were obtained at baseline (T0), 1 h (T1), 2 h (T2), 4–6 h (T3) and 8–12 h (T4) after the LD. HTPR was defined as a platelet reactivity unit values ≥ 208 units. Results Mean age was 62 ± 12 years, and males were 75%. Patients with a BMI ≥25 were younger (61 ± 12 vs. 64 ± 11, P= 0.006), with a higher prevalence of male gender (78% vs. 68%, P = 0.035), and they were less frequently treated with morphine before PCI (30% vs. 42%; P=0.018). After propensity score matching, patients with BMI ≥25 had similar values of baseline platelet reactivity [T0: 308 (285–342) vs. 300 (281–330), P= 0.396], while they had higher level of platelet reactivity at 1 and 2 h after the LD [T1: 285 (200–308) vs. 265 (196–320), P= 0.047; T2: 241 (87–305) vs. 200 (56–256), P= 0.004] and higher rate of HRPT [T1: (66% vs. 47%, P= 0.004); T2: (40% vs. 24%, P= 0.006)]. Furthermore, multivariable analysis demonstrated that BMI ≥25 was an independent predictor of HTPR at 2 h (OR 2.01, 95% CI 1.18–3.42; P=0.009). Conversely, starting from 4 h after the LD, platelet reactivity values [T3: 68 (7–173) vs. 15 (6–71), P = 0.76; T4: 38 (4–104) vs. 44 (4–82), P=0.958] and HRPT rates (T3: 13% vs. 10%, P = 0.595; T4: 1% vs. 1%, P= 0.320) were comparable among the two study groups. Conclusions A BMI ≥25 kg/m2 is associated with decelerated pharmacodynamic response to oral 3rd generation P2Y12 inhibitors LD, and it is a strong predictor of HRPT in STEMI patients treated by dual antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor or prasugrel.

Introduction: Current evidence suggests that dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) reduces perioperative stroke, but increases bleeding after carotid endarterectomy (CEA). The long term effects of antiplatelet therapy after CEA have yet to be studied. Methods: A retrospective review of patients undergoing CEA in the national Vascular Quality Initiative database (2003-2018) was performed. Based on antiplatelet regimen at discharge, patients were propensity score matched on aspirin monotherapy vs. DAPT. Multivariable logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier analyses were used to investigate the long term effects of antiplatelet regimen on mortality and stroke/TIA. Results: Of the 72,122 patients undergoing CEA, 64.6% were discharged on aspirin, and 35.4% on DAPT. The DAPT group had higher frequencies of comorbidities (COPD, HTN, CHF, smoking, diabetes) as well as atherosclerotic diseases (PAD, CAD, prior PCI, prior CABG). After propensity score matching, two groups of 8,722 patients with comparable comorbidities were formed. While unmatched Kaplan-Meier analysis showed the DAPT cohort to have higher mortality (p=0.001), this difference dissipated after matching. The resultant matched DAPT cohort did not differ from the aspirin group in one year stroke/TIA (1.7% vs. 1.6%, p=0.70), or mortality (3.1% vs. 3.3%, p=0.55). At 5 years, however, patients treated with DAPT did exhibit a mortality benefit (6.4% vs. 7.3%, p=0.02) with multivariable logistic regression identifying DAPT as an independent predictor of reduced mortality (OR 0.94, 95% CI 0.88-0.99, p=0.04). Conclusions: Patients discharged on DAPT after CEA represent a significantly different cohort than those discharged on aspirin monotherapy. After propensity score matching, there was no difference at one year stroke/TIA or mortality outcomes, but DAPT was found to be protective against long-term mortality. Further study is warranted to investigate this finding.

Background: Current guidelines recommend dual antiplatelet therapy for the first 1 to 6 months after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR); however, recent studies have reported better outcomes with single antiplatelet therapy than with dual antiplatelet therapy in the occurrence of bleeding events, while not increasing thrombotic events. However, no data exist about optimal single antiplatelet therapy following TAVR. Methods: Patients who underwent TAVR between October 2013 and May 2017 were enrolled from the OCEAN-TAVI Japanese multicenter registry (Optimized Transcatheter Valvular Intervention). After excluding 1759 patients, 829 who received aspirin (100 mg/d) or clopidogrel (75 mg/d) after TAVR were identified and stratified according to the presence or absence of anticoagulation. Propensity score matching was performed to adjust the baseline characteristics between the aspirin and clopidogrel groups. Outcomes of interest were all-cause and cardiovascular deaths, stroke, and life-threatening or major bleeding within 2 years following TAVR. Results: After propensity score matching, 98 and 157 pairs of patients without and with anticoagulation, respectively, were identified. Falsification end points of pneumonia, urinary tract infection, and hip fracture were evaluated, and their rates were not different between groups. All-cause deaths were not statistically different between the groups in patients with (aspirin, 17.5%; clopidogrel, 11.1%; log-rank P =0.07) and without (aspirin, 29.6%; clopidogrel, 20.1%; log-rank P =0.15) anticoagulation at 2 years post-TAVR, whereas clopidogrel was associated with a lower cardiovascular mortality at 2 years in patients with (aspirin, 8.5%; clopidogrel, 2.7%; log-rank P =0.03) and without (aspirin, 18.0%; clopidogrel, 5.2%; log-rank P =0.02) anticoagulation. Conclusions: We demonstrated that clopidogrel monotherapy was associated with a lower incidence of cardiovascular death compared with aspirin monotherapy during the 2-year follow-up after TAVR regardless of anticoagulation use.

Background: High residual platelet reactivity (HRPR) during dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) may impact clinical outcomes following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). However, whether any biomarkers assessed before PCI at DAPT loading may predict delayed maintenance HRPR is not clear. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether conventional clinical or laboratory indices at loading before stenting may predict HRPR at 6 months of maintenance DAPT. Methods: The study was designed on a single-center prospective cohort, and included 94 pre-PCI patients. All patients underwent elective PCI with drug-eluting stent implantation, and received DAPT with aspirin and clopidogrel. Platelet reactivity was assessed with 5 μmol/L of adenosine diphosphate-induced light transmission aggregometry before PCI, but after 24 h of DAPT loading, and repeated at 6 months. Baseline clinical characteristics, CYP2C19 polymorphism, C-reactive protein, soluble P-selectin, CD40L, interleukin-6, PAI-1 levels, and von Willebrand factor activity were analyzed. Results: The incidence (light transmission aggregometry <50%) of prestent HRPR was 16%. By univariate regression, body mass index (BMI; p = 0.02), total cholesterol (p = 0.01), low-density lipoproteins (p = 0.004), CYP2C19*2 allele carriage (p = 0.006), soluble P-selectin (p = 0.009), and von Willebrand factor (p = 0.04) were linked to future HRPR. However, multivariate regression analysis suggested that only BMI and P-selectin were independent predictors of HRPR. Conclusions: Platelet reactivity before elective stenting is associated with numerous biomarkers; however, only BMI and soluble P-selectin were independent predictors of future HRPR during maintenance-phase DAPT. This may be important for future tailored antiplatelet strategies in patients with metabolic syndrome and diabetics.

Purpose: To investigate in-hospital outcomes after endovascular therapy (EVT) in patients with severe peripheral artery disease (PAD) who had a low body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) compared to those with normal BMI. Materials and Methods: Using weighted data from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database between 2002 and 2014 and ICD-9 codes, 2614 patients were identified who were aged ≥18 years and underwent EVT for PAD in the lower limb vessels. EVT was defined as angioplasty, atherectomy, and/or stenting. After excluding individuals with BMI >24, there were 807 (31%) normal-weight (BMI 19–24) patients and 1807 (69%) underweight (BMI <19) individuals. All patients in both groups were matched for baseline demographic and clinical characteristics and critical limb ischemia in a 1:1 propensity score matching analysis using the nearest neighbor method. Results: Propensity score matching produced 2 groups of 685 patients that differed only in the incidence of chronic lung disease, which was more frequent in low-BMI patients (p=0.04). Patients with low BMI had a higher incidence of in-hospital mortality (4.8% vs 1.2%, p<0.001), major adverse cardiovascular events (composite of death, myocardial infarction, or stroke) (7.9% vs 4.1%, p=0.003), open bypass surgery (9.1% vs 6.0%, p=0.03), and infection (14.6% vs 10.5%, p=0.02) compared with the normal-BMI group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of vascular complications (p=0.31), major bleeding (p=0.17), major amputation (p=0.35), or acute kidney injury (p=0.09) between the low- and normal-BMI groups. Conclusion: Low-BMI patients with PAD have worse in-hospital survival and more adverse outcomes after EVT.
