SummaryPatients on rivaroxaban requiring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) represent a clinical conundrum. We aimed to investigate whether rivaroxaban, with or without an additional bolus of unfractionated heparin (UFH), effectively inhibits coagulation activation during PCI. Stable patients (n=108) undergoing elective PCI and on stable dual antiplatelet therapy were randomised (2:2:2:1) to a short treatment course of rivaroxaban 10 mg (n=30), rivaroxaban 20 mg (n=32), rivaroxaban 10 mg plus UFH (n=30) or standard peri-procedural UFH (n=16). Blood samples for markers of thrombin generation and coagulation activation were drawn prior to and at 0, 0.5, 2, 6–8 and 48 hours (h) after start of PCI. In patients treated with rivaroxaban (10 or 20 mg) and patients treated with rivaroxaban plus heparin, the levels of prothrombin fragment 1 + 2 at 2 h post-PCI were 0.16 [0.1] nmol/l (median) [interquartile range, IQR] and 0.17 [0.2] nmol/l, respectively. Thrombin–antithrombin complex values at 2 h post-PCI were 3.90 [6.8] μg/l and 3.90 [10.1] μg/l, respectively, remaining below the upper reference limit (URL) after PCI and stenting. This was comparable to the control group of UFH treatment alone. However, median values for thrombin–antithrombin complex passed above the URL with increasing tendency, starting at 2 h post-PCI in the UFH-alone arm but not in rivaroxaban-treated patients. In this exploratory trial, rivaroxaban effectively suppressed coagulation activation after elective PCI and stenting.Clinical trial registration: Clinical Trials.gov Identifier: NCT01442792 URL: EudraCT.

Background Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is a treatment of choice in ST elevation myocardial infarction patients (STEMI). However, this approach could affect the kidney function due to iodinated contrast exposure to the patient. Remote ischemic post conditioning (RIPostC) is a non-invasive and simple method that not only has cardioprotective but also renoprotective effect for kidney function. Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of RIPostC to kidney function in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI. Methods This study uses pre and post-test only with control group design with experimental research designs. Data was taken at an Indonesian Heart Center from June 2019 until March 2020, there were 66 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) being performed RIPostC procedure with intermittent ischaemia and reperfusion applied to the arm through five cycles of 5-min inflation and 5-min deflation of an automated cuff device after crossing wire. Creatinine and eGFR were measured pre and 48 hours post PPCI. Kidney function were determined by eGFR post PPCI, ΔeGFR (pre and 48 hours post PPCI), creatinine post PPCI and Δcreatinine (pre and 48 hours post PPCI). Bivariate analysis was performed to determine the effect RIPostC to kidney function using the Chi-square test.  Result A total of 66 patients who underwent the PPCI procedure were divided into two groups RIPostC (n = 33) and without RIPostC (n = 33). The baseline characteristic in both of group was similar. We found that there were no differences of eGFR (70,46 ± 23,06 vs 65,88 ± 23,36, p = 0,424), ΔeGFR (0 [-34,68 - 37,32] vs 0 [-121,53 - 29,70], p value= 0,406), creatinine (1,00 [0,70 - 4,60] vs 1,20 [0,60-4,10], p value= 0,633) and Δcreatinine (0 [-1,20-1,10] vs 0 [-0,50-0,90], p value= 0,390) RIPostC group had a lower CI-AKI incident if we compare with the non RIPostC (15,2% vs 42,4%, p < 0,05). Conclusion Remote ischaemic conditioning does not significantly improve kidney function (eGFR, ΔeGFR, creatinine and Δcreatinine) in patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI The differences of kidney functionVariableRIPostCControlp valueeGFR post PPCI (ml/min/1,73 m2), mean70,46 ± 23,0665,88 ± 23,360,424aΔeGFR(ml/min/1,73 m2), median0 [-34,68 - 37,32]0 [-121,53 - 29,70]0,406bCreatinine post PPCI (mg/dL), median1,00 [0,70 - 4,60]1,20 [0,60-4,10]0,633bΔcreatinine (mg/dL), median0 [-1,20-1,10]0 [-0,50-0,90]0,390ba = Independent sample T testb = mann whitney testAbstract Figure.

Background: The aim of this research was to use the Mehran risk score to classify elderly diabetics with coronary heart disease to assess the preventive effect of trimetazidine on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in different risk population. Methods: An uncompromised of 760 elderly diabetics that went through PCI were included in this research. The patients were first divided into three groups in the light of MRS: low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk group, then randomized into trimetazidine group and the control group respectively. The first endpoint was the amount of CIN, which is described as a rise in serum creatinine levels by ⩾44.2 μmol/L or ⩾25% ratio within 48 or 72 hours after medication. Second endpoint included differences in creatinine clearance rate (CrCl), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), cystatin-C (Cys-C), and the incidence of major adverse events after administration. Results: In the three groups, the incidence of CIN in trimetazidine and control group was 5.0% versus 4.9%(χ2 = 0.005, p > 0.05), 8.0% versus 18.0% (χ2 = 7.685, p < 0.05), 10.4% versus 27.1% (χ2 = 4.376, p < 0.05), respectively. The multivariable logistic regression result demonstrated that trimetazidine intervention was a profitable element of CIN in moderate and high-risk groups (OR = 0.294, 95% CI 0.094-0.920, p = 0.035). Conclusion: Our study confirmed that trimetazidine can be considered for preventive treatment of CIN occurrence in elderly diabetics with moderate and high-risk population, while there is no obvious advantage compared with hydration therapy in low-risk patients.
