Purpose: N-terminal fragment of the B type-natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is an established tool for assessing acute dyspnoea and stratifying risk in heart failure, acute coronary syndromes (ACS), and stable coronary heart disease (SCHD). The aim of this study was to determine the value of NT-proBNP in predicting long-term risk of patients (Pts) submitted to elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the setting of SCHD. Methods: We prospectively studied 291 Pts (age 64.3±9.6 years, 64 female) with SCHD submitted to successful elective PCI, and determined NT-proBNP immediately before PCI. Pts were divided into 2 groups according to NT-proBNP level: group T3 formed by Pts with NT-proBNP level in the highest tertile and group T1+T2 formed by all remaining Pts. The study endpoint was time to the first occurrence of death (D) or non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) during the mean follow-up of 568 ± 322 days. Multivariable analyses were performed to adjust the prognostic value of NT-proBNP for the effects of factors known to influence NT-proBNP (age, gender, renal function, body mass index) and of other potential predictors of outcome (cardiovascular risk factors, prior cardiovascular events, left ventricular ejection fraction, and PCI characteristics). Results: NT-proBNP ranged from 5 pg/ml to 104 pg/ml in the 1st tertile (T1), 105 pg/ml to 358 pg/ml in the 2nd tertile (T2), and 364 pg/ml to 33.991 pg/ml in the 3rd tertile (T3). During follow-up, 8 Pts died and 11 suffered a non-fatal MI. NT-proBNP was significantly higher in Pts who experienced an adverse outcome (440 pg/ml [inter-quartile range, 104 –1712] vs 174 pg/ml [inter-quartile range, 78 – 460) in Pts with uneventful follow-up; P= 0.007). An NT-proBNP level ≥364 pg/ml was associated with a higher endpoint rate (13.4% vs 3.1% in group T1+T2) and independently predicted outcome: adjusted hazard ratio 3.11, 95% CI, 1.15– 8.37, P=0.025. The sensitivity, specificity, predictive positive value, and negative predictive value for the criterion NT-proBNP ≥364 pg/ml were 68.4%, 69.1%, 13.4%, and 96.9%, respectively. Conclusion: In the setting of SCHD, the level of NT-proBNP is a powerful prognostic marker even after successful PCI.

Background : Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death in diabetic population. Compared with diabetics without retinopathy, diabetics with retinopathy have an increased risk of myocardial infarction and death from coronary heart disease. Therefore, it is crucial to select an appropriate revascularization method in this considerable high-risk group. Methods: Between 1996 and 2004, a total of 149 patients with diabetic retinopathy underwent revascularization, either coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) (n=56) or percutaneous coronary intervention with bare metal stents (BMS) (n=94). We compared overall survival rates of the two methods. Mortality was estimated according to Kaplan-Meier methods and was compared using the log-rank test. Results: The average follow-up from the time of the initial revascularization was 59.7 ± 33.3 months. During the entire follow-up, there was 8(14.5%)death in the CABG group and 27(28.7%) deaths in the BMS group. The average duration between death and revascularization was 81.3 ± 24.6 for the CABG group and 29.9 ± 23.8 for the BMS group (P<0.001). The 6-year overall survival was 94.8% for the CABG group and 73.6% for the BMS group. Mortality curves differed significantly between the two groups (P=0.004) (Figure ). After adjustment for baseline characteristics including age, sex, HbA1c, insulin, serum creatinine, ejection fraction, and the extent of coronary disease, the hazard ratio of death afforded by CABG was 0.36 (95% confidence interval, 0.15–0.87; P=0.023). Conclusions: In patients with diabetic retinopathy, CABG conferred survival benefit over BMS implantation.

Background: Adherence to treatment is a crucial factor in preventing the progression of coronary heart disease. More evidence of the predictors of long-term adherence is needed. Aims: The purpose of this study was to identify the predictive factors of adherence to treatment six years after percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: Baseline data ( n=416) was collected in 2013 and follow-up data in 2019 ( n=169) at two university hospitals and three central hospitals in Finland. The self-reported Adherence of Patients with Chronic Disease Instrument was used. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression analysis. Results: The respondents reported higher adherence to a healthy lifestyle six years after percutaneous coronary intervention in comparison to four months post-percutaneous coronary intervention; adherence was seen in their healthy behaviour, such as decreased smoking and reduced alcohol consumption. Participating in regular follow-up control predicted adherence. Support from next of kin predicted physical activity and normal cholesterol levels; this outcome was associated with close relationships, which also predicted willingness to be responsible for treatment adherence. Women perceived lower support from nurses and physicians, and they had more fear of complications. Fear was more common among respondents with a longer duration of coronary heart disease. Physical activity and male gender were associated with perceived results of care. Conclusion: Support from next of kin, nurses and physicians, results of care, responsibility, fear of complication and continuum of care predicted adherence to treatment in long term. These issues should be emphasised among women, patients without a close relationship, physically inactive and those with a longer duration of coronary heart disease.

Abstract The severity and complexity evaluation of coronary artery disease in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) require objective and accurate prognosis indexes. We assessed the relationship between lncRNA-Ang362 and prognosis of CHD patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Clinical follow-up data of CHD patients were prospectively collected. LncRNA-Ang362 levels were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Survival rate was calculated by the Kaplan–Meier method, and risk ratios and 95% confidence intervals were computed using univariate and multivariate COX proportional hazard models. Finally, 434 patients were included in the follow-up cohort. The median follow-up time was 24.8 months (6.7–40). The incidence of adverse cardiovascular events was 13.6%. The high expression group significantly tended to be smoker and higher body mass index, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, creatinine, and uric acid levels compared with the low expression group. According to the SYNTAX grade, the high-risk and medium-risk groups had significantly higher lncRNA expression levels than the low-risk group. The univariate COX regression analysis indicated that high lncRAN-Ang362 expression significantly increased the risk of adverse cardiovascular events in CHD patients after PCI (hazard risk (HR) = 3.19, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.29–7.92). Multivariate analysis found high lncRNA-Ang362 expression was independently related to worse prognosis in CHD patients after PCI (HR = 2.83, 95%CI: 1.34–6.02). Plasma lncRNA-Ang362 may be a prognosis factor in CHD patients after PCI. The patients with higher lncRNA-Ang362 expression usually have poor prognosis.

The Mehran risk score (MRS) was used to classify patients with coronary heart disease and evaluate the preventive effect of alprostadil on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention. The patients (n = 1146) were randomized into an alprostadil and control group and then divided into 3 groups on the basis of the MRS: low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups. The primary end point was the occurrence of CIN (alprostadil + hydration vs simple hydration treatment); secondary end points included serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine clearance rate, cystatin C, interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, proteinuria, and differences in the incidence of major adverse events. In the low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups, the incidence of CIN in the control and alprostadil group was 2.9 versus 2.6% ( P = .832), 11.4 versus 4.9% ( P = .030), 19.1 versus 7.7% ( P = .041), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that alprostadil treatment was a favorable protective factor for moderate-risk and high-risk CIN patients (OR = 0.343, 95% CI: 0.124-0.951, P = .040). Alprostadil can be used as a preventive treatment for moderate- and high-risk CIN patients classified by the MRS. The reduction of CIN by alprostadil may be related to an anti-inflammatory effect.

Objective: Antiplatelet therapy is recommended in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) who had the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedure to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). There has been a lack of population-based studies that showed the superior effectiveness of ticagrelor over clopidogrel and similar studies have not been conducted in Indonesia yet. The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of ticagrelor compared to clopidogrel in reducing the risk of MACE in patients with CHD after PCI.Methods: A retrospective cohort study with 1-year follow-up was conducted. 361 patients consisted of 111 patients with ticagrelor exposure and 250 patients with clopidogrel exposure. The primary outcome was MACE, defined as a composite of repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction, or all-cause death. The association between antiplatelet exposure and the MACE was analyzed with Cox proportional hazard regression, adjusted for sex, age, comorbid, PCI procedures and concomitant therapy.Results: MACE occurred in 22.7% of the subjects. Clopidogrel had a significantly higher risk of MACE compared with ticagrelor (28.8%, vs 9.0%, hazard ratio (HR): 1.96 (95% CI 1.01 to 3.81, p=0.047). There were no significant differences in risk of repeat revascularization (20.40% vs 5.40%, HR: 2.32, 95% CI 0.99 to 5.42, p = 0.05), myocardial infarction (11.60% vs 3.60%, HR: 2.08, 95% CI, 0.73 to 5.93, p = 0.17), and death (1.60% vs 1.80%, HR: 0.77, 95% CI, 0.14 to 4.25, p = 0.77).Conclusion: Clopidogrel had a higher risk of MACE compared to clopidogrel in patients with CHD after PCI, but there were no significant differences in the risk of repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction, and all-cause death.
