Abstract The impact of pre-existing depression on mortality in individuals with established coronary artery disease (CAD) remains unclear. We evaluate the clinical implications of pre-existing depression in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Based on National Health Insurance claims data in Korea, patients without a known history of CAD who underwent PCI between 2013 and 2017 were enrolled. The study population was divided into patients with angina (n=50,256) or acute myocardial infarction (AMI; n=40,049). The primary endpoint, defined as all-cause death, was compared between the non-depression and depression groups using propensity score matching analysis. After propensity score matching, there were 4,262 and 2,346 matched pairs of patients with angina and AMI, respectively. During the follow-up period, there was no significant difference in the incidence of all-cause death in the angina (hazard ratio [HR] of depression, 1.013; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.893-1.151) and AMI (HR, 0.991; 95% CI: 0.865-1.136) groups. However, angina patients less than 65 years of age with depression had higher all-cause mortality (HR, 1.769; 95% CI: 1.240-2.525). In Korean patients undergoing PCI, pre-existing depression is not associated with poorer clinical outcomes. However, in younger patients with angina, depression is associated with higher all-cause mortality.

Introduction: There has been a continuous debate about the survival benefit of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for the management of patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and moderate to severe ischemia. To address this, we performed a meta-analysis of RCTs comparing PCI plus MT vs. MT alone in stable CAD patients to evaluate endpoints of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular (CV) mortality, and MI in a larger cohort of patients with objective evidence of myocardial ischemia. Methods: An electronic database search was conducted for RCTs that compared PCI on top of MT versus MT alone. A random effects model was used to calculate relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: A total of 7 RCTs with 10,043 patients with a mean age of 62.54 ± 1.56 years and a median follow up of 3.9 years were identified. Among patients with (CAD) and moderate to severe ischemia by stress testing, PCI didn’t show any benefit for the primary outcome of all-cause mortality compared to MT(RR = 0.85; 95% CI 0.646-1.12; p= 0.639). There was also no benefit in cardiovascular (CV) death (RR = 0.88 ; 95% CI 0.71-1.09; p =0.18) or myocardial infarction (MI) (RR = 0.271 ; 95% CI 0.782-1.087; P =0.327) in the PCI group as compared to MT. Conclusions: Among patients with (CAD) and evidence of moderate to severe ischemia by stress testing, PCI on top of MT appears to add no mortality benefit as compared to with MT alone.

Background Soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin), a biomarker of inflammatory pathologies including cardiovascular disease, is known to have pro-atherosclerotic effects such as the ability to increase leukocyte recruitment and modulate thrombotic response. We aimed to assess the impact of sP-selectin on long-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients after coronary stenting for coronary artery disease. Methods We analysed 733 patients of a single-centre registry undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between 2003 and 2006. Plasma samples were analysed for sP-selectin antigen concentration with an enzyme-linked immunoassay. The study population was categorized according to sP-selectin quartiles. Endpoint of the study was long-term MACE, a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. Results Of the total patient cohort, 361 (49.2%) patients were admitted for stable coronary artery disease and 372 (50.8%) for acute coronary syndrome. Median age was 64 years and 70.7% were male. After a mean follow-up period of 9.7 years, MACE occurred in 344 (46.9%) patients. The primary endpoint components of all-cause death occurred in 211 (28.8%), MI in 88 (12.0%) and ischaemic stroke in 45 (6.1%) patients. After adjustment for confounders, patients in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th quartile were at higher risk for MACE compared with the 1st quartile (hazard ration [HR], 1.234 [0.899–1.695], p = 0.193; HR, 1.480 [1.085–2.019], p = 0.013; and HR, 1.571 [1.115–2.152], p = 0.004). sP-selectin as continuous variable model was significantly associated with MACE after adjustment (HR per 1 ng/mL increase of 1.009 [95% confidence interval, 1.002–1.017]; p = 0.016). Conclusion Elevated levels of sP-selectin were associated with increased risk for long-term MACE in patients undergoing PCI.

Aims To investigate the clinical relevance of contemporary cut-offs of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) including an intermediate phenotype with mid-range reduced ejection fraction among patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods and results Patient-level data were summarized from five randomized clinical trials in which 6198 patients underwent clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention in different clinical settings. We assessed all-cause mortality as primary endpoint at five-year follow-up. According to the proposed LVEF cut-offs, 3816 patients were included in the preserved LVEF group (LVEF ≥ 50%), 1793 in the mid-range reduced LVEF group (LVEF 40–49%) and 589 patients in the reduced LVEF group (LVEF < 40%). Patients in the reduced LVEF group were at increased risk for the primary outcome of all-cause mortality compared with both, preserved and mid-range LVEF throughout five years of follow-up (adjusted hazard ratio 2.39 (95% confidence interval 1.75–3.28, p < 0.001) and 1.68 (95% confidence interval 1.34–2.10, p < 0.001), respectively). The risk of cardiac death and the composite endpoint of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or stroke were higher for patients in the reduced LVEF group compared with the preserved and mid-range reduced LVEF groups, but also for the mid-range LVEF compared with preserved LVEF group (adjusted p < 0.05 for all comparisons) throughout five years. Irrespective of clinical presentation at baseline (stable coronary artery disease or acute coronary syndrome), patients with reduced or mid-range LVEF were at increased risk of all-cause mortality and cardiac death up to five years compared with the other group (adjusted p < 0.05 for all comparisons). Conclusion Patients with reduced LVEF <40% or mid-range LVEF 40–49% in the context of coronary artery disease undergoing clinically indicated percutaneous coronary intervention are at increased risk of all-cause mortality, cardiac death and the composite of cardiac death, stroke and myocardial infarction throughout five years of follow-up. The recently proposed LVEF cut-offs contribute to the differentiation and risk stratification of patients with ischaemic heart disease.
