Stent thrombosis (ST) is the most feared complication of coronary stent treatment because of its morbidity and mortality. Ongoing research is focusing on the frequency and the timing in various patient subsets as well as the factors associated with the occurrence of ST. The mechanism of ST is multifactorial, hence various procedure-, lesion- and patient-related factors have been associated with its occurrence. Beside these factors the role of adjunctive antithrombotic therapy remains unchallenged. Emerging data suggest that primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) can be a predictor of subsequent ST. As patients presenting with STEMI are at increased risk of ST, employment of the optimal pharmacological, procedure- and device-related prevention and treatment modalities are imperative.

Abstract Background Morphine analgesia may affect absorption of co-prescribed P2Y12 antagonists attenuating platelet inhibition. The impact of peri-procedural intravenous (IV) morphine administration on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is not well defined. Purpose To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis exploring clinical outcomes with peri-procedural IV morphine in patients undergoing PPCI for STEMI. Methods Analysis of the electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL, Scopus, Web of Science and ClinicalTrials.gov for association of peri-PCI IV morphine use with myocardial infarction (MI) and mortality. Primary and secondary outcomes were in-hospital or 30-day MI and all-cause mortality respectively. Results Eleven studies (1 randomised controlled trial; 10 cohort studies) were included for systematic review. Five studies, including 3,748 patients were included in meta-analysis of the primary outcome. Of 3,748 patients, 2,239 were treated concurrently with ticagrelor, 1,256 treated with clopidogrel and 253 with prasugrel. As shown in the Figure, there was a trend towards increased risk of myocardial infarction with IV morphine (odds ratio 1.88; 95% CI 0.87–4.09, I2 0%). Across seven studies and 6585 patients, no increased risk of mortality at the same composite time endpoint was evident (odds ratio 0.70, 95% CI 0.40–1.23, I2 19%). Figure 1. MI in hospital or at 30 days Conclusion Based on current literature, evidence of an association between IV morphine and myocardial infarction in patients undergoing PPCI for STEMI is limited by observational methodology and conflicting results. There is no evidence of an association between intravenous peri-procedural morphine and mortality. Clinical trial evidence with strong documentation of adverse events data is required to demonstrate association or causality. Acknowledgement/Funding None

Abstract Background Insulin resistance (IR) is considered a pivotal risk factor for cardiometabolic diseases, and the triglyceride–glucose index (TyG index) has emerged as a reliable surrogate marker of IR. Although several recent studies have shown the association of the TyG index with vascular disease, no studies have further investigated the role of the TyG index in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The objective of the present study was to evaluate the potential role of the TyG index as a predictor of prognosis in STEMI patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods The study included 1092 STEMI patients who underwent PCI. The patients were divided into 4 quartiles according to TyG index levels. Clinical characteristics, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), triglycerides (TGs), other biochemical parameters, and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCEs) during the follow-up period were recorded. The TyG index was calculated using the following formula: ln[fasting TGs (mg/dL) × FPG (mg/dL)/2]. Results The incidence of MACCEs and all-cause mortality within 30 days, 6 months and 1 year after PCI were higher among STEMI patients with TyG index levels in the highest quartile. The TyG index was significantly associated with an increased risk of MACCEs in STEMI patients within 1 year after PCI, independent of confounding factors, with a value of 1.529 (95% CI 1.001–2.061; P = 0.003) for those in the highest quartile. The area under the curve (AUC) of the TyG index predicting the occurrence of MACCEs in STEMI patients after PCI was 0.685 (95% CI 0.610–0.761; P = 0.001). The results also revealed that Killip class > 1, anaemia, albumin, uric acid, number of stents and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were independent predictors of MACCEs in STEMI patients after PCI (all P < 0.05). Conclusions This study indicated an association between higher TyG index levels and increased risk of MACCEs in STEMI patients for the first time, and the TyG index might be a valid predictor of clinical outcomes in STEMI patients undergoing PCI.

Aims. We investigate the effect of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GP IIb/IIIa) inhibitors on long-term outcomes following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) after non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Meta-analyses indicate that these agents are associated with improved short-term outcomes. However, many trials were undertaken before the routine use of P2Y12inhibitors. Recent studies yield conflicting results and registry data have suggested that GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors may cause more bleeding than what trials indicate.Methods and Results. This retrospective observational study involves 3047 patients receiving dual-antiplatelet therapy who underwent PCI for NSTEMI. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) were a secondary outcome. Mean follow-up was 4.6 years. Patients treated with GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors were younger with fewer comorbidities. Although the unadjusted Kaplan-Meier analysis suggested that GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor use was associated with improved outcomes, multivariate analysis (including propensity scoring) showed no benefit for either survival (P=0.136) or MACE (P=0.614). GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor use was associated with an increased risk of major bleeding (P=0.021).Conclusion. Although GP IIb/IIIa inhibitor use appeared to improve outcomes after PCI for NSTEMI, patients who received GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors tended to be at lower risk. After multivariate adjustment we observed no improvement in MACE or survival and an increased risk of major bleeding.

<p><strong>Aim.</strong> To evaluate in-hospital outcomes of direct stenting compared with stenting after predilation in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and hyperglycemia at admission.<br /><strong></strong></p><p><strong>Methods.</strong> Data were collected from hospital database, which includes information about all patients (n = 1 469) with ST-elevation myocardial infarction admitted to the coronary care unit and submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention. Plasma glucose was measured at hospital admission. Hyperglycemia was defined as plasma glucose of 7.77 mmol/L (140 mg/dL), regardless of the diabetic status. A total of 695 (46.3%) patients with hyperglycemia at admission were included in the analysis. Direct stenting (DS) was performed in 358 (51.5%) patients and 337 (48.5%) patients received stenting non-direct stenting. Among non-direct stenting group 292 (86.6%) patients received stenting after predilation, 19 (5.6%) patients received manual thrombus aspiration and 26 (7.7%) patients received stenting after combination of predilation and thrombus aspiration. The clinical and angiographic characteristics, in-hospital outcomes, as well as predictors of angiographic no-reflow were analysed. The composite of in-hospital death, myocardial infarction, and stent thrombosis were defined as major adverse cardiac events (MACE). </p><p><strong>Results.</strong> The rate of angiographic success was higher in DS group (96.1% vs. 89%, р&lt;0,001). There were no difference in rates of stent thrombosis (1.1% vs. 0.9%, р = 0.764), repeat myocardial infarction (1.7% vs. 1.2%, р = 0,588), and access site complications (3.4% vs. 5.4%, р = 0.194) between groups. The rates death (3.9% vs. 9.5%, р = 0.003), MACE (5.3 vs. 11.3, р = 0.004), and no-reflow (2.2% vs. 11%, р&lt;0.001) were significantly lower in the direct stenting group. Following propensity score matching, each group contained 160 patients. The rate of no-reflow (3.1% vs. 10.0%, р = 0.013) remain significantly lower in the DS group. There were no differences in rates of death (4.4% vs. 6.9%, p = 0.454), MACE (6.3% vs. 8.1%, p = 0.664), stent thrombosis (1.9% vs. 0.6%, p = 0.625), and repeat myocardial infarction (0.6% vs. 0.6%, р = 1,00) between groups. </p><p><strong>Conclusion.</strong> Direct stenting in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and hyperglycemia is a safe and feasible technique. Direct stenting in patients with hyperglycemia undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-elevation myocardial infarction was characterised with decrease in no-reflow rate.</p>
