Abstract Background Soluble suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (sST2) is implicated in myocardial overload and has long been recognized as an inflammatory marker related to heart failure and acute coronary syndrome, but data on the prognostic value of sST2 in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remain limited. This study sought to investigate the prognostic value of sST2 in patients with established CAD and its predictive value in CAD patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods A total of 3641 consecutive patients were included in this prospective cohort study. The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). The secondary end point was all-cause death. The association between sST2 and outcomes was investigated using multivariable Cox regression. Results During a median follow-up of 6.4 years, MACEs occurred in 775 patients, and 275 patients died. Multiple Cox regression models showed that a higher level of sST2 was an independent predictor of MACEs development (HR = 1.36, 95% CI 1.17–1.56, p < 0.001) and all-cause death (HR = 2.01, 95% CI 1.56–2.59, p < 0.001). The addition of sST2 to established risk factors significantly improved risk prediction of the composite outcome of MACEs and all-cause death (C-index, net reclassification index, and integrated discrimination improvement, all p < 0.05). In subgroup analysis depending on diabetes status, the diabetes group had a significantly higher level of sST2, which remained a significant predictor of MACEs and all-cause death in patients with and without T2DM in multivariable models. The area under the curve (AUC) of CAD patients with diabetes mellitus was significantly higher than that of those without T2DM. For MACEs, the AUC was 0.737 (patients with T2DM) vs 0.620 (patients without T2DM). For all-cause death, the AUC was 0.923 (patients with T2DM) vs 0.789 (patients without T2DM). Conclusions A higher level of sST2 is significantly associated with long-term MACEs and all-cause death in CAD patients with and without T2DM. sST2 has strong predictive value for cardiovascular adverse events in CAD patients with T2DM, and these results provide new evidence for the role of sST2.

Abstract Background: Suppression of tumorigenesis-2 (ST2) is implicated in myocardial overload and has long been recognized as an inflammation marker related to heart failure and acute coronary syndromes, but data on the prognostic value of ST2 in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remain limited. This study sought to investigate the prognostic value of ST2 in patients with established coronary artery disease and its predictive value in CAD patients with or without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods: A total of 3641 consecutive patients were included in this prospective cohort study. The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). The secondary end point was all-cause death. The association between ST2 and outcomes was investigated using multivariable Cox regression.Results: During a median follow-up of 6.4 years, 775 patients had the occurrence of MACEs and 275 patients died. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates indicated that the patients with higher levels of ST2 (ST2> 19 ng/ml) had a significantly increased risk of MACEs (log-rank p＜0.001) and all-cause death (log-rank p<0.001). Multiple Cox regression models showed that higher level of ST2 was an independent predictor for MACEs developments (HR=1.36, 95% CI 1.17-1.56, p<0.001) and all-cause death (HR=2.01, 95% CI 1.56-2.59, p<0.001). The addition of ST2 to established risk factors significantly improved risk prediction of the composite outcome of MACEs and all-cause death (C-statistic, net reclassification index, and integrated discrimination improvement, all p<0.05). Subgroup analyses showed that ST2 remained a significant predictor of MACEs and all-cause death in patients with and without T2DM in multivariable models.Conclusions: A higher level of ST2 is significantly associated with long-term MACEs and all-cause death in CAD patients with and without T2DM. ST2 may provide incremental prognostic value beyond traditional risk factors.

Abstract PurposeST2 has been proved the prognostic value in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), its prognostic value to predict cardiac events in established coronary artery disease (CAD) patients is unknown. The study ought to investigate the prognostic value of ST2 in patients with established coronary artery disease.MethodsA total of 3650 consecutive patients were included in the study. The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). The secondary end point was all-cause death. To explore competing risks, cause-specific hazard ratios were obtained using Cox regression models.ResultsDuring a median follow up of 6.4 years, there were 775 patients had the occurrence of MACEs and 275 patients died. Kaplan–Meier survival estimates indicated that the patients with higher level of ST2 (ST2 > 19 ng/ml) had a significantly increased risk of MACEs (log-rank p<0.001)and all-cause death(log-rank p<0.001). After adjustment for potential confounders, multiple COX regression models showed that higher level of ST2 was an independent predictor in developing MACEs(HR 1.31; 95% CI: 1.13–1.52; p<0.001) and all-cause death(HR 1.78; 95% CI: 1.38–2.30; p<0.001). We saw a significant increase of AUC in ROC curve after addition of GDF-15 to a clinical model 0.586 vs 0.619 For MACEs (p<0.001).For long-term all-cause death the increase of AUC 0.766 vs 0.642 (95% CI 0.787–0.846(p<0.001).ConclusionHigher level of ST2 is significantly associated with long-term all-cause death, MACEs and provides incremental prognostic value beyond traditional risks factors.

Abstract BACKGROUND Midregional proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM) is a newly identified prognostic marker in heart failure. We evaluated the prognostic impact of MR-proADM in a cohort of patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease according to their clinical presentation. METHODS We measured baseline MR-proADM concentrations in 2240 individuals from the prospective AtheroGene study and evaluated the prognostic impact on future fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events during a follow-up period of 3.6 (1.6) years. RESULTS The sample comprised 1355 individuals with stable angina pectoris (SAP) and 885 with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A cardiovascular event occurred in 192 people. Individuals presenting with SAP had only slightly lower plasma MR-proADM concentrations than those with ACS (0.53 vs 0.55 nmol/L, P = 0.006). MR-proADM showed a moderate association with age, serum N-terminal pro–B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), glomerular filtration rate, serum C-reactive protein, hypertension, diabetes, and prevalent multivessel disease (all P &lt; 0.0005). Individuals suffering from a cardiovascular event had higher MR-proADM concentrations at baseline in both groups (SAP 0.63 vs 0.53 nmol/L and ACS 0.65 nmol/L vs 0.55 nmol/L, both P &lt; 0.0005). Cox regression analysis incorporating various variables of cardiovascular risk and NT-proBNP revealed a hazard ratio of 1.4 (95% CI 1.2–1.6; P &lt; 0.0005) per increment of MR-proADM by 1SD. In risk models for secondary prevention, MR-proADM provided information comparable to that of NT-proBNP. CONCLUSIONS MR-proADM is an independent predictor for future cardiovascular events in patients with symptomatic coronary artery disease, providing information comparable to NT-proBNP for secondary risk stratification.

Abstract Background Conflicting results on the prognostic value of blood adiponectin level in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) have been reported. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the prognostic value of elevated adiponectin level in CAD patients. Methods A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed and Embase databases up to May 10, 2019. Studies evaluating the association between adiponectin level and major adverse cardiovascular events (death, stroke, acute coronary syndrome or coronary revascularisation), cardiovascular mortality, and all-cause mortality in CAD patients were included. Pooled multivariable adjusted risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) was calculated for the highest vs the lowest category of adiponectin level. Results Twelve studies including 10,974 CAD patients were included. Elevated adiponectin level was independently associated with higher risk of cardiovascular (RR 1.93; 95% CI 1.55–2.42; p < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (RR 1.96; 95% CI 1.64–2.34; p < 0.001) in CAD patients. However, CAD patients with higher adiponectin level did not significantly increase major cardiovascular events risk (RR 1.12; 95% CI 0.86–1.45; p = 0.407) after adjustment for potential confounders. Conclusions This meta-analysis indicates that elevated adiponectin level is an independent predictor of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in CAD patients. Measurement of blood adiponectin level has potential to identify CAD patients who have high risk of death.

Abstract Background Risk stratification of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has not been established. Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are independently associated with cardiovascular events in T2DM patients. This study examined the incremental prognostic value of NAFLD assessed by non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) in addition to CACS and Framingham risk score (FRS) for cardiovascular events in T2DM patients. Methods This prospective pilot study included 529 T2DM outpatients with no history of cardiovascular disease who underwent CACS measurement because of suspected coronary artery disease. NAFLD was defined on CT images as a liver:spleen attenuation ratio < 1.0. Cardiovascular events were defined as cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, late coronary revascularization, nonfatal stroke, or hospitalization for heart failure. Results Among 529 patients (61% men, mean age 65 years), NAFLD was identified in 143 (27%). Forty-four cardiovascular events were documented during a median follow-up of 4.4 years. In multivariate Cox regression analysis, NAFLD, CACS, and FRS were associated with cardiovascular events (hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals 5.43, 2.82–10.44, p < 0.001; 1.56, 1.32–1.86, p < 0.001; 1.23, 1.08–1.39, p = 0.001, respectively). The global χ2 score for predicting cardiovascular events increased significantly from 27.0 to 49.7 by adding NAFLD to CACS and FRS (p < 0.001). The addition of NAFLD to a model including CACS and FRS significantly increased the C-statistic from 0.71 to 0.80 (p = 0.005). The net reclassification achieved by adding CACS and FRS was 0.551 (p < 0.001). Conclusions NAFLD assessed by CT, in addition to CACS and FRS, could be useful for identifying T2DM patients at higher risk of cardiovascular events.

Background: Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin has its receptor present in myriad of tissues and it modulates multiple cellular processes. Vitamin D deficiency is reported to be associated with coronary artery disease. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Aims and Objective: The primary outcome was to investigate if there is a correlation of 25-OH levels with the percentage of luminal stenosis, as measured with coronary angiogram. The secondary outcome was to determine the differences in angiographically proven luminal stenosis across categories of 25-OH vitamin D levels. Materials and Methods: Thirty patients with acute coronary syndrome with diabetes mellitus were included in this cross-sectional descriptive study. All patients were tested for fasting vitamin D levels, fasting blood sugar, HbA1C and serum creatinine. Detailed history of the patients was recorded. Data was analyzed by the statistical software SPSS version 19 and p value <0.05 was considered significant. Statistical tests like Chi- square, independent t test and log regression was used. Results: In this study 30 patients undergoing coronary angiography for acute coronary syndrome, Vitamin D levels showed severe deficiency in 6.7% (2) cases while mild deficiency was seen in 50% of the cases. Patients with single vessel disease on the coronary angiogram had lower mean HbA1C (9.18) levels in our study. Patients with triple vessel disease had poorly controlled mean HbA1C levels (10.42). Conclusion: In this study we did not find any significant difference between the serum Vitamin D deficiency levels with patients with angiographic severity of the coronary artery disease. Patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus had more severe angiographic proven coronary artery disease.

Abstract Introduction Cardiac computed tomographic angiography (CCTA)-derived measures of coronary artery disease (CAD) burden such as segment involvement score (SIS), which quantifies the number of segments with plaque, have been shown to independently predict incident cardiovascular events. Purpose We aimed to compare the added prognostic value of plaque burden to CCTA anatomic assessment and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) physiologic assessment in patients with diabetes undergoing both tests. Methods Consecutive patients with diabetes who underwent clinically indicated CCTA and SPECT myocardial imaging for suspected coronary artery disease at a tertiary care center were retrospectively identified from medical records. Stenosis severity and segment involvement score (SIS) were determined from CCTA, and presence of ischemia was determined from SPECT. Patients were followed from date of imaging for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; inclusive of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting 90-days after imaging test.) Results A total of 778 patients were included (mean age 60.6±14.4 years, 55% males). Obstructive stenosis (left main ≥50%, all other coronary segments ≥70%) and ischemia were found in 15% and 16% of patients respectively. After a median follow-up of 31 months, 87 (11%) patients experienced a MACE. In multivariable Cox regression models, SIS significantly predicted outcomes in models including obstructive stenosis and ischemia (HR 1.17, 95% CI 1.10 - 1.24, p&lt;0.001; 1.16, 95% CI 1.10 - 1.23, p&lt;0.001). The addition of SIS also significantly improved discrimination (Harrel's C 0.75, p=0.006; 0.76, p=0.006 in models with CCTA obstructive stenosis and SPECT ischemia respectively). Results were consistent using subgroups of summed scores by composition of plaque (calcified vs non-calcified) and alternate definitions of obstructive stenosis. Conclusion Our results suggest that in high-risk patients with diabetes and suspected coronary disease, SIS has incremental prognostic value over ischemia by SPECT or stenosis by CCTA in predicting incident cardiovascular outcomes.
