Background: Although unmarried has been associated with an increased risk of acute coronary syndrome, little is known about the relationship between marital status and long-term mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods and Results: To elucidate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of AMI patients who have never married, the consecutive 364 male AMI patients (mean age; 63±13 years) admitted to our hospital were studied. Mean follow-up period was 1.7 years. The patients were divided into 2 groups by their marital status: those who had married at least one time (Married Group (MG), n=328) and those who had never married (Unmarried Group (UG), n=36 (9.9%)). UG patients were younger (54±11 vs 65±12 years, p<0.0001) and had a higher level of body mass index (BMI) (26.5±4.5 vs 24.1±3.5 kg/m2, p=0.0002) than MG. None of coronary risk factors including hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus and smoking habit, Killip classification, culprit lesion of AMI nor maximal creatine phosphokinase-MB (CPK-MB) level was different between 2 groups. The time from the symptom onset to admission was significantly longer in UG (6.1 (2.6-14.3) vs 3.8 (2.3-8.3) hours, p=0.033). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessed at the acute phase of AMI was not different between 2 groups. Kaplan-Meier Curve showed no significant difference of all-cause mortality between 2 groups (20% in UG vs 12% in MG, p=0.27 by Log-rank test). When the analysis is done in patients with the ages >50 years (272 patients in MG and 19 in UG), all-cause mortality tended to be higher in UG than in MG (38% vs 15%, p=0.098 by Log-rank test). After adjustment for age, Killip IV and LVEF at the acute phase, unmarried status was independently associated with all-cause long-term mortality after AMI (hazard ratio (HR); 3.84, 95% confidence interval (CI); 1.22-10.2, p=0.024). Conclusions: Unmarried status is independently associated with significantly increased all-cause long-term mortality in the male AMI patients with the ages >50 years.

Abstract Introduction Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a frequent complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and is associated with a worse prognosis. Patients with chronic kidney disease are more likely to develop AF. Whether the association between AF and renal function is also true in AMI has never been investigated. Purpose The aim of the study was to assess the incidence of new-onset AF according to renal function, estimated at hospital admission, and its relationship with short-term outcome and long-term all-cause mortality in a large real-world cohort of AMI patients. Methods We prospectively enrolled 2,445 AMI patients. New-onset AF was recorded during hospitalization. Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was estimated at admission and patients were grouped according to their renal function (group 1 [n=1,887]: eGFR&gt;60; group 2 [n=492]: eGFR 60–30; group 3 [n=66]: eGFR&lt;30 ml/min/1.73m2). The primary endpoint was AF incidence. In-hospital and long-term (median 5 years) all-cause mortality were the secondary endpoints. Results The AF incidence in the whole population was 10% and it was associated with a higher in-hospital (5% vs. 1%; P&lt;0.0001) and long-term mortality (34% vs. 13%; P&lt;0.0001). The AF incidence was 8%, 16%, 24% in groups 1, 2, 3, respectively (P&lt;0.0001). In each group, in-hospital mortality was higher in AF patients (3.5% vs. 0.5%, 6.5% vs. 3.0%, 19% vs. 8%, respectively; P&lt;0.0001). A similar trend was observed for long-term mortality (20% vs. 9%, 51% vs. 24%, 81% vs. 50%, respectively; P&lt;0.0001). The higher risk for in-hospital and long-term mortality associated with AF in each group was confirmed also after adjustment for major confounders. Conclusions The study demonstrates that the incidence of new-onset AF during AMI, as well as its associated in-hospital and long-term mortality, increases in parallel with the severity of renal dysfunction assessed at hospital admission.

Abnormal hemodynamics is thought to contribute to the increased risk of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) and mortality. However, few studies focused on patients without abnormal hemodynamics (defined as hypotension, intra-aortic balloon pump usage) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF < 40%). Our study was to explore the impact of CIN on mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with relative stable hemodynamics. In this observational study, we included 696 patients with AMI undergoing PCI without reduced LVEF and abnormal hemodynamics. The end point was long-term, all-cause mortality. During the mean follow-up of 2.79 years, CIN was detected in 110 (15.8%) patients. The total all-cause mortality was higher in CIN group than that in non-CIN group (24% vs 3.4%, P < .001). In the multivariate Cox analysis, CIN was an independent predictor of worse outcomes (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 2.97, 95% confidence interval: 1.46-6.06, P < .001) and significantly associated with long-term mortality, so did renal insufficiency (adjusted HR: 4.40, P < .001) and use of β-blockers (adjusted HR: 0.33, P < .001). Among patients with AMI, CIN independently predicted long-term mortality following PCI, regardless of LVEF impairment and abnormal hemodynamics.

Abstract Background Diuretics has been reported to have a potential for an activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and the sympathetic nervous system, leading to a possibility of poor clinical outcome in patients with cardiovascular disease. However, few data are available on clinical impact of diuretics on long-term outcome in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) based on plasma volume status. Methods To address the issue, a total of 3,416 survived patients with AMI who were registered to a large database of the Osaka Acute Coronary Insufficiency Study (OACIS) were studied. Plasma volume status was assessed with the estimated plasma volume status (ePVS) that was calculated at discharge as follows: actual PV = (1 − hematocrit) × [a + (b × body weight)] (a=1530 in males and a=864 in females, b=41.0 in males and b=47.9 in females); ideal PV = c × body weight (c=39 in males and c=40 in females), and ePVS = [(actual PV − ideal PV)/ideal PV] × 100 (%). Multivariable Cox regression analysis and propensity score matching were performed to account for imbalances in covariates. The endpoint was all-cause of death (ACD) within 5 years. Results During a median follow-up period of 855±656 days, 193 patients had ACD. In whole population, there was no significant difference in long-term mortality risk between patients with and without diuretics in both multivariate cox regression model and propensity score matching population. When patients were divided into 2 groups according to ePVS with a median value of 4.2%, 46 and 147 patients had ACD in groups with low ePVS and high ePVS, respectively. Multivariate Cox analysis showed that use of diuretics was independently associated with an increased risk of ACD in low ePVS group, (HR: 2.63, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.22–5.63, p=0.01), but not in high ePVS group (HR: 0.70, 95% CI: 0.44–1.10, p=0.12). These observations were consistent in the propensity-score matched cohorts; the 5-year mortality rate was significantly higher in patients with diuretics than those without among low ePVS group (4.7% vs 1.7%, p=0.041), but not among high ePVS group (8.0% vs 10.3%, p=0.247). Conclusion Prescription of diuretics at discharge was associated with increased risk of 5-year mortality in patients with AMI without PV expansion, but not with PV expansion. The role of diuretics on long-term mortality may differ in plasma volume status. Therefore, prescription of diuretics after AMI may be considered based on plasma volume status.

Abstract Background Although the patient's characteristics and outcome of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have been sufficiently investigated and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been recognized as established treatment strategy, those of recent myocardial infarction (RMI) have not been fully evaluated. Purpose The purpose of the present study was to clarify clinical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of RMI patients from the database of the Tokyo CCU network multicenter registry. Methods In Tokyo CCU network multicenter registry database from 2013 to 2016, 15788 consecutive patients were registered as AMI (within 24 hours from onset) and RMI (within 2–30 days from onset). However 1246 patients were excluded because of inadequate data. And we excluded 66 cases because of out of onset period and 129 cases that strongly suspected of involvement of vasospastic events. Therefore, remaining 14347 patients were categorized to RMI group (n=1853) and AMI group (n=12494), and analyzed. Results Compared with AMI group, average age was older (70.4±12.9 vs 68.0±13.4 years, p<0.001), male was less (72.4 vs 76.4%, p<0.001), chest pain as chief complaint was less (75.2 vs 83.6%, p<0.001), prevalence of diabetes mellitus was higher (35.9 vs 31.0%, p<0.001), multi-vessel coronary disease was more (54.7 vs 44.6%, p<0.001), patients undergoing PCI was less (79.0 vs 91.2%, p<0.001), and the incidence of mechanical complication was more in RMI group (3.0 vs 1.5%, p<0.001). Although 30-day mortality was equivalent between 2 groups (5.3 vs 5.8%, p=0.360), the major cause of death in AMI group was cardiogenic shock, while in the RMI group it was a mechanical complication. On Kaplan-Meier analysis, the 2 groups had significantly different cumulative incidence of death due to cardiogenic shock (p=0.006, Log-rank test) and mechanical complication (p=0.021, Log-rank test). Furthermore death due to mechanical complication in AMI group was plateau after about 1 week from hospitalization, whereas in RMI group it continued to increase. Kaplan-Meier analysis Conclusions RMI patients had distinctive clinical features in backgrounds and treatment strategies compared with AMI patients, and the major cause of death of RMI patients was different from that of AMI patients. Furthermore, even though treatment during hospitalization of RMI patients was well done, death due to mechanical complications continued to increase.
