Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) manifesting as acute increase in serum creatinine is a recognized complication to cardiac catheterization. Patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have a markedly increased risk of developing AKI. At present, there is no universally accepted strategy for prevention of AKI in the setting of primary PCI. We assessed whether remote ischemic peri-conditioning (RIPC) stimulus during ambulance transport of STEMI patient would reduce the rate of creatinine rise post primary PCI. Method: We evaluated STEMI patients transferred to two hospitals participating in the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) Acute Coronary Treatment Intervention Outcomes Network Registry-Get With the Guidelines (ACTION Registry-GWTG) between March, 2013 and March, 2015. Patients were transferred by an air medical critical care service utilizing RIPC as part of a standard protocol and compared to controls matched by referring location/facility. Patient demographics, clinical characteristics, treatments, cardiac biomarkers, left ventricular function, serum creatinine and rate of any increase in creatinine post PCI were compared by the presence or absence of RIPC during transport. Results: Out of the 221 STEMI patients (Age, 63±12.7 yrs; 32.6% female) in this analysis, 107 received RIPC and 114 did not. Baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups. RIPC group had significantly lower rate of creatinine rise post PCI (38.6% vs 55.2%; OR, 1.40; CI, 1.03-1.90; p=0.03) despite having similar baseline serum creatinine (median (IQR), 1.0(0.36) mg/dl vs. median (IQR), 1.0(0.4) mg/dl; p=0.46). In multivariable logistic regression analysis adjusting for demographic factors and clinical characteristics, RIPC (OR, 1.62; CI, 1.12-2.35; p=0.01) was independently associated with lower rate of creatinine rise post PCI. Conclusion: Among patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI, RIPC before hospital arrival compared with no RIPC was associated with significantly lower rate of creatinine rise post PCI. The use of RIPC as a potential renoprotective strategy for STEMI patients warrants further investigation.

Background: There is little recent data describing the characteristics and outcomes of STEMI patients who do not undergo urgent reperfusion. Methods: Using the ACTION Registry®-GWTG™ database, we examined 232,208 STEMI patients presenting January 2007 through December 2013 at 793 U.S. centers. The cohort was divided into those who underwent reperfusion (n=194,916; 84%), had documented contraindication to reperfusion (n=31,518; 13.5%) and were eligible but not reperfused (n=5,774; 2.5%). Clinical characteristics and in-hospital outcomes were compared between these groups. Results: Compared with those reperfused, patients not reperfused were older, more often female and had higher rates of hypertension, diabetes, MI, stroke and atrial fibrillation. LBBB and CHF were more common in the non-reperfused groups upon presentation. The major documented contraindications to reperfusion were unsuitable anatomy for primary PCI (31%), symptoms onset > 12 hours (9%), patient/family refusal/DNR status (6%), resolved chest pain (6%) and ST elevation (5%) presentation to non-PCI centers (4%). Three-vessel disease and in-hospital CABG were more common in non-reperfused patients with and without contraindication compared with those receiving reperfusion (39 & 37% vs. 26%, p<0.001) and (17 & 17% vs. 3%, p<0.001 respectively). In-hospital outcomes are summarized in the table. Conclusion: Most STEMI patients who were not reperfused had a documented contraindication. Unsuitable anatomy for PCI was the major contributor to ineligibility. In hospital mortality, death/MI and cardiogenic shock were higher in the non-reperfused groups.

Abstract Background The incidence of atrial fibrillation in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) ranges from 3% to 25%. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the demographic and baseline clinical characteristics, cardiovascular risk factors and comorbid conditions between patients (pts) with concomitant atrial fibrillation (AF) to those without AF in patients suffering from ACS without previous coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods The MINOCA-TR study has a cross-sectional, multicenter, observational design and was conducted with 32 interventional cardiology centers in our country. Heart rhythm at emergency admission, demographical, clinical and angiographic data was recorded for each patient. Patients with stable coronary artery disease, unstable angina pectoris and with type 4/5 myocardial infarction were excluded from study population. Results A total of 1626 patients (male: 70.7%, mean age: 61.4±12.5 years) were classified according to the presence of AF. The rate of AF was 3.1% in study population. This group was older (73.4 vs. 61.0 years, p<0.001) and AF was more common among females (43.1% vs. 28.7%, p=0.027). The frequency of AF was slightly higher (7.8%) in MINOCA group (p=ns). STEMI presentation was more common in patients without AF (31.3% vs. 46.9%, p=0.028). LVEF was significantly lower in ACS patients with AF (44.1% vs. 49.4%, p=0.039). The frequency of AF was significantly higher (3.7%) in MINOCA group. AF vs. non-AF ACS pts w/o prior revasc Parameter ACS with AF ACS without AF p value Age (years) 73.4 (±9.4) 61.0 (±12.4) <0.001 Female (%) 43.1 28.7 0.027 cTnT levels (pg/dL) median (IQR) 15.2 (96) 15.3 (428) 0.421 STEMI (%) 31.3 46.9 0.028 LVEF (%) 44.1 (±12.2) 49.4 (±10.4) 0.039 MINOCA (%) 7.8 6.6 0.743 STEMI: ST-segment elevation MI; NSTEMI: Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; MINOCA: Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries. Conclusions The frequency of AF was relatively lower in patients suffering from an ACS without prior revascularization history. They were older than patients without AF and were common in females. Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction was significantly higher in the AF. The presence of MINOCA was similar between 2 groups.

The association of hyperglycemia at admission and final thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow with 1-year mortality of patient with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not much been explored. We evaluated the association of hyperglycemia and final TIMI flow with 1-year mortality in patients with acute STEMI who underwent primary PCI.We retrospectively analyzed 856 patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI in a tertiary care academic center between January 2014 and July 2016. Based on the receiver operating characteristics curve, the cutoff used for hyperglycemia in this study was greater than or equal to 169 mg/dL. Cox proportional hazard model was used to determine the association of hyperglycemia and TIMI flow with 1-year mortality.Compared with patients with lower blood glucose level (<169 mg/dL; n = 549), a greater proportion of patients who presented with hyperglycemia (≥169 mg/dL; n = 307) had final TIMI flow 0 to 1 (3.3 vs. 0.5%; adjusted odds ratio = 5.58, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.30–23.9, p = 0.02). Hyperglycemia was associated with an increased risk for 1-year mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]= 2.0, 95% CI: 1.13–3.53, p = 0.017). Multivariable Cox regression showed that the interaction of hyperglycemia and final TIMI flow 0 to 1 was associated with an elevated risk for 1-year mortality (adjusted HR= 9.4, 95% CI: 2.34–37.81, p = 0.002).A higher proportion of patients with acute STEMI who presented with hyperglycemia had final TIMI flow 0 to 1 after primary PCI. The interaction of hyperglycemia and final TIMI flow 0 to 1 was associated with an increased risk for 1-year mortality. This study suggests that aggressive control of hyperglycemia prior to primary PCI may facilitate better angiographic and clinical outcomes after primary PCI.

Aims To investigate the different risk factors among different subtypes of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods A total of 296 patients who had ACS were retrospectively enrolled. Blood and echocardiographic indices were assessed within 24 hours after admission. Differences in risk factors and Gensini scores of coronary lesions among three groups were analyzed. Results Univariate analysis of risk factors for ACS subtypes showed that age, and levels of fasting plasma glucose, amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, and creatine kinase isoenzyme were significantly higher in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) than in those with unstable angina pectoris (UAP). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that amino-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were related to ACS subtypes. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter was an independent risk factor for UAP and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) subtypes. The severity of coronary stenosis was significantly higher in NSTEMI and STEMI than in UAP. Gensini scores in the STEMI group were positively correlated with D-dimer levels (r = 0.429) and negatively correlated with the LVEF (r = −0.602). Conclusion Different subtypes of ACS have different risk factors. Our findings may have important guiding significance for ACS subtype risk assessment and clinical treatment.

Abstract Background Cardiovascular guidelines recommend adjunct glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (GPI) only in selected patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Purpose This study aimed to evaluate routine GPI use in STEMI treated with primary PCI. Methods Online databases were systematically searched for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of routine GPI vs. control therapy in STEMI. Data from retrieved studies were abstracted and evaluated in a comprehensive meta-analysis using Mantel-Haenszel estimates of risk ratios (RR) as summary statistics. Results After systematic review, twenty-one RCTs with 8,585 patients were included: ten trials randomized tirofiban (T), nine abciximab (A), one eptifibatide (E), one trial used A+T; only one trial used DAPT with prasugrel/ ticagrelor. Routine GPI were associated with a significant reduction in all-cause mortality at 30 days (2.4% (GPI) vs. 3.2%; risk ratio (RR) 0.72; p=0.01) and 6 months (3.7% vs. 4.8%; RR 0.76; p=0.02), and a reduction in recurrent MI (1.1% vs. 2.1%; RR 0.55; p=0.0006), repeat revascularization (2.5% vs. 4.1%; RR 0.63; p=0.0001), TIMI flow <3 after PCI (5.4% vs. 8.2%; RR 0.61; p<0.0001) and ischemic stroke (RR 0.42; p=0.04). Major (4.7% vs. 3.4%; RR 1.35; p=0.005) and minor bleedings (7.2% vs. 5.1%; RR 1.39; p=0.006) but not intracranial bleedings (0.1% vs. 0%; RR 2.7; p=0.37) were significantly increased under routine GPI. Conclusions Routine GPI administration during primary PCI in STEMI resulted in mortality reduction, driven by reductions in recurrent ischemic events – however predominantly in trials pre-prasugrel/ticagrelor. Trials in contemporary STEMI management are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract Background Left ventricular negative remodelling after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is considered as the major cause for the poor prognosis. But the predisposing factors and potential mechanisms of left ventricular negative remodelling after STEMI remain not fully understood. The present research mainly assessed the association between the stress hyperglycaemia ratio (SHR) and left ventricular negative remodelling. Methods We recruited 127 first-time, anterior, and acute STEMI patients in the present study. All enrolled patients were divided into 2 subgroups equally according to the median value of SHR level (1.191). Echocardiography was conducted within 24 h after admission and 6 months post-STEMI to measure left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD). Changes in echocardiography parameters (δLVEF, δLVEDD, δLVESD) were calculated as LVEF, LVEDD, and LVESD at 6 months after infarction minus baseline LVEF, LVEDD and LVESD, respectively. Results In the present study, the mean SHR was 1.22 ± 0.25 and there was significant difference in SHR between the 2 subgroups (1.05 (0.95, 1.11) vs 1.39 (1.28, 1.50), p < 0.0001). The global LVEF at 6 months post-STEMI was significantly higher in the low SHR group than the high SHR group (59.37 ± 7.33 vs 54.03 ± 9.64, p  = 0.001). Additionally, the global LVEDD (49.84 ± 5.10 vs 51.81 ± 5.60, p  = 0.040) and LVESD (33.27 ± 5.03 vs 35.38 ± 6.05, p  = 0.035) at 6 months after STEMI were lower in the low SHR group. Most importantly, after adjusting through multivariable linear regression analysis, SHR remained associated with δLVEF (beta = −9.825, 95% CI −15.168 to −4.481, p  < 0.0001), δLVEDD (beta = 4.879, 95% CI 1.725 to 8.069, p  = 0.003), and δLVESD (beta = 5.079, 95% CI 1.421 to 8.738, p  = 0.007). Conclusions In the present research, we demonstrated for the first time that SHR is significantly correlated with left ventricular negative remodelling after STEMI.

Abstract Objective To investigate the correlation between Procollagen I C-Terminal Propeptide (PICP), Procollagen III N-Terminal Propeptide (PIIINP), indices of echocardiography and anamnestic data in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and preserved myocardial contractility. Materials and methods 60 men and 23 women diagnosed with STEMI were examined. Echocardiographic studies were performed using SONOS 2500 Cardiac – Vascular Ultrasound (Hewlett Packard, USA). Myocardial contractility was considered to be preserved with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%. In addition to standard indices of echocardiography, mitral flow propagation velocity (FPV) was evaluated to diagnose diastolic dysfunction. Coronary angiography was performed using INNOVA 3100 Cardiovascular Imaging System (USA). All patients, during the first twelve hours of the disease, underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stenting of the occluded culprit infarct-related artery. On the 1st and 12th days of hospitalization, the concentrations of PICP and PIIINP were determined for all patients by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using laboratory BCM Diagnostics kits (USA). All patients at the hospital received standard therapy. Results The following marker values were obtained: 1st day: PICP 609 (583; 635) ng/ml, PIIINP 26 (18.9; 34.9) ng/ml; 12th day: PICP 588 (580; 561) ng/ml, PIIINP 24.2 (18.6; 30.3) ng/ml. The following significant correlations were revealed: PICP 1st day / isovolumic contraction time – IVCT (m/s) 12th day, r=−0.68, p=0.042; PICP 1st day / Tei Index 12th day, r=−0.72, p=0.028; PICP 1st day / diastolic rigidity 12th day, r=−0.74, p=0.021; PIIINP 1st day/age, r=0.55, p=0.016; PIIINP 1st day/ body mass index (BMI), r=−0.59, p=0.009; PIIINP 1st day / E (cm/s) 1st day, r=0.72, p=0.018; PIIINP 1st day / Em /FPV 1st day, r=0.78, p=0.007; PIIINP 12th day / Em / FPV 1st day, r=0.65, p=0.041; PIIINP 12th day / E (cm/s) 1st day, r=0.67, p=0.033; PIIINP 12th day / E / Em) 12th day, r=0.70, p=0.023; PIIINP 12th day / Em/FPV 12th day, r=0.73, p=0.014. Conclusions The data obtained indicates the correlation between serum markers of myocardial fibrosis and the indices of echocardiography, as well as age. We conclude that, all the markers listed above, are able to represent myocardial remodeling in patients with STEMI. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None
