Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of tirofiban hydrochloride sodium chloride injection combined with cardiovascular intervention on acute myocardial infarction. Methods: Eighty-four patients with acute myocardial infarction who were treated in our hospital from April 2017 to May 2018 were divided into a control group and a treatment group using random number table method; there were 42 patients in each group. Both groups were given conventional treatment and were treated with aspirin and clopidogrel before and after operation. Moreover, the control group was treated with cardiovascular interventional therapy, while the treatment group was treated with tirofiban hydrochloride on the basis of cardiovascular interventional therapy. The patients were followed up to observe and compare the treatment condition and adverse reactions of the two groups. Results: After percutaneous coronary intervention, the normal rate of myocardial perfusion in the treatment group was 92.86%, which was higher than 69.05% in the control group (P<0.05). After PCI, there were significant differences of thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow Grade- 2 and 3 between the two groups (P<0.05). The improvement of platelet activation function in the treatment group was better than that in the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse cardiac events in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Tirofiban hydrochloride sodium chloride injection combined with cardiovascular intervention has a significant clinical effect in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. It can effectively improve the blood perfusion and reduce the incidence of adverse cardiac events, suggesting a good effect on the prognosis of patients and high application value. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.1.1005 How to cite this:Liu Y, Zhang L, Yang Y.

Abstract Background/objectives Pericoronary adipose tissue inflammation might lead to the development and destabilization of coronary plaques in prediabetic patients. Here, we evaluated inflammation and leptin to adiponectin ratio in pericoronary fat from patients subjected to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Furthermore, we compared the 12-month prognosis of prediabetic patients compared to normoglycemic patients (NG). Finally, the effect of metformin therapy on pericoronary fat inflammation and 12-months prognosis in AMI-prediabetic patients was also evaluated. Methods An observational prospective study was conducted on patients with first AMI referred for CABG. Participants were divided in prediabetic and NG-patients. Prediabetic patients were divided in two groups; never-metformin-users and current-metformin-users receiving metformin therapy for almost 6 months before CABG. During the by-pass procedure on epicardial coronary portion, the pericoronary fat was removed from the surrounding stenosis area. The primary endpoints were the assessments of Major-Adverse-Cardiac-Events (MACE) at 12-month follow-up. Moreover, inflammatory tone was evaluated by measuring pericoronary fat levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), and leptin to adiponectin ratio. Finally, inflammatory tone was correlated to the MACE during the 12-months follow-up. Results The MACE was 9.1% in all prediabetic patients and 3% in NG-patients. In prediabetic patients, current-metformin-users presented a significantly lower rate of MACE compared to prediabetic patients never-metformin-users. In addition, prediabetic patients showed higher inflammatory tone and leptin to adiponectin ratio in pericoronary fat compared to NG-patients (P < 0.001). Prediabetic never-metformin-users showed higher inflammatory tone and leptin to adiponectin ratio in pericoronary fat compared to current-metformin-users (P < 0.001). Remarkably, inflammatory tone and leptin to adiponectin ratio was significantly related to the MACE during the 12-months follow-up. Conclusion Prediabetes increase inflammatory burden in pericoronary adipose tissue. Metformin by reducing inflammatory tone and leptin to adiponectin ratio in pericoronary fat may improve prognosis in prediabetic patients with AMI.

Background: Stress hyperglycemia is a common phenomenon in patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (MI). We aim to evaluate the association of stress hyperglycemia at the time of hospital presentation and adverse cardiac events in myocardial infarction during the course of hospital stay. Methods: Subjects with age ≥18 years with acute MI were recruited on hospital admission and categorized based on admission blood glucose (<180 and ≥180 mg/dl, 50 patients in each group). Both groups were compared for clinical outcomes, adverse cardiac events and mortality. We also compared the adverse cardiac outcomes based on HbA1c levels (<6% and ≥6%). Results: Patients with high blood glucose on admission (stress hyperglycemia) had significant increased incidences of severe heart failure (Killip class 3 and 4), arrythmias, cardiogenic shock and mortality (p value = 0.001, 0.004, 0.044, and 0.008 respectively). There was no significant association between adverse cardiac events and HbA1c levels (heart failure 18.8% vs. 25%, p value = 0.609 and mortality 16.7% vs. 17.3%, p value = 0.856). Conclusions: Stress hyperglycemia is significantly associated with adverse clinical outcomes in patients with MI irrespective of previous diabetic history or glycemic control. Clinicians should be vigilant for admission blood glucose while treating MI patients.

Abstract Background Cardiovascular diseases are still the main cause of death in the western world. However, diminishing mortality rates of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are motivating the need to investigate the process of stationary and ambulatory secondary prevention after AMI. Besides cardiac rehabilitation, disease management programs (DMPs) are an important component of outpatient care after AMI in Germany. This study aims to analyze outcomes after AMI among those who participated in DMPs and stationary cardiac rehabilitation (CR) in a region with overall increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Methods: On the basis of data from a regional myocardial infarction registry and a 2-years follow up period, we assessed the occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in relation to participation in CR and DMP, risk factors for complications and individual health, and lifestyle characteristics. Multivariable Cox regression was performed to compare survival time until an adverse event occurred.Results Out of 1,094 observed patients AMI, 272 were enrolled in a DMP. A weak association between DMP participation and hazard rates for MACE compared to non-enrollees was found in the crude model (hazard ratio = 0.93; 95% confidence interval = 0.65–1.33). When adjusted for possible confounders, this difference disappeared (1.03; 0.72–1.48). Furthermore, smokers and obese patients showed a distinctly lower chance of DMP enrollment. In contrast, participants of CR showed a lower risk for MACE in crude (0.52; 0.41–0.65) and adjusted analysis (0.56; 0.44–0.71).Conclusions Participation in DMP was not associated with a lower risk of MACE, while CR showed beneficial effects. Adjustment only slightly changed effect estimates in both cases, still potential effects of confounding need to be considered.

Background: The effect of celecoxib on restenosis after angioplasty with a Taxus stent (COREA-TAXUS) trial is an open-label randomized controlled study, where we reported celecoxib was effective in reducing 6months late loss of Taxus stent. With this cohort, we analyzed long-term clinical outcomes. Method: Two hundred sixty seven patients underwent successful paclitaxel-eluting stents implantation for native coronary lesions. Patients were randomized to receive celecoxib (400 mg before the intervention, and 200 mg twice daily for 6 months after the procedure) or not. Clinical endpoints were cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and revascularization of the target lesion. Results: At 6 months, frequency of adverse cardiac events was significantly lower in the celecoxib group (5.3% versus 16.2%, P=0.005), mainly because of reduced need for revascularization of the target lesion (5.3% versus 15.4%, P=0.009). Between 6 and 24 months, frequency of adverse cardiac events was not different between the celecoxib group and the control group (1.6% versus 4.4%, P=NS: 0% versus 0% for cardiac death; 0.8% versus 0.9% for non-fatal myocardial infarction; 0.8% versus 3.5% for revascularization of target lesion, P=all NS). At 2 years, frequency of adverse cardiac events was still significantly lower in the celecoxib group (6.9% versus 19.9%, P=0.002) Conclusion: In the COREA-TAXUS trial, the adjunctive use of celecoxib for 6 months after Taxus stent implantation was safe and clinically effective for 2 years.

Multivariable Cox regression was performed to compare survival time between participants and non-participants until an adverse event occurred. Results: Of 1,094 observed patients post-AMI, 272 were enrolled in a DMP. An association between DMP participation and lower hazard rates for MACE compared to non-enrollees could not be proven in the crude model (hazard ratio = 0.93; 95% confidence interval = 0.65-1.33). When adjusted for possible confounding variables, these results remained virtually unchanged (1.03; 0.72-1.48). Furthermore, smokers and obese patients showed a distinctly lower chance of DMP enrollment. In contrast, those who participated in CR showed a lower risk for MACE in crude (0.52; 0.41-0.65) and adjusted analysis (0.56; 0.44-0.71). Conclusions: Participation in DMP was not associated with a lower risk of MACE, but participation in CR showed beneficial effects. Adjustment only slightly changed effect estimates in both cases, but it is still important to consider potential effects of confounding variables.

Introduction. Platelet-derived microparticles (PDMPs) measurement adds prognostic implication for ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). The long-term implication of PDMPs in STEMI needs to be corroborated. Methods. The research design was a cohort study. Subjects were STEMI patients and were enrolled consecutively. The PDMPs were defined as microparticles bearing CD41(+) and CD62P(+) markers detected with flow cytometry. The PDMPs were measured on hospital admission and 30 days after discharge. The outcomes were major adverse cardiac events (MACE), i.e., a composite of cardiac death, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, reinfarction, and resuscitated ventricular arrhythmia, occurring from hospitalization until 1 year after discharge. Results. We enrolled 101 subjects with STEMI. During hospitalization, 17 subjects (16.8%) developed MACE. The PDMPs were not different between subjects with MACE and those without (median (IQR): 3305.0/μL (2370.0–14690.5/μL) vs. 4452.0/μL (2024.3–14396.8/μL), p=0.874). Forty-five subjects had increased PDMPs in 30 days after discharge as compared with on-admission measurement. Subjects with increased PDMPs had significantly higher 30-day MACE as compared to subjects with decreased PDMPs 17 (37.8%) vs. 6 (16.7%, p=0.036). There was a trend toward higher MACE in subjects with increased PDMPs as compared to those with decreased PDMPs in 90 days after discharge (48.9% vs. 30.6%, p=0.095) and 1 year after discharge (48.9% vs. 36.1%, p=0.249). Conclusion. The PDMPs level was increased from the day of admission to 30 days after discharge in patients with STEMI. The persistent increase in the PDMPs level in 30 days after the STEMI event was associated with the 30-day postdischarge MACE and trended toward increased MACE during the 90-day and 1-year follow-up.
