Abstract Background: Suppression of tumorigenesis-2 is implicated in the myocardial overload and it was long been recognized as an inflammation marker related to heart failure and acute coronary syndromes, but the data on prognostic value of suppression of tumorigenesis-2 on patients with coronary artery disease remains limited. The study ought to investigate the prognostic value of suppression of tumorigenesis-2 in patients with established coronary artery disease.Methods: In this prospective cohort study, a total of 3641 consecutive patients were included. The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular events. 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). The secondary end point was all-cause death. The association between suppression of tumorigenesis-2 and outcomes was investigated using multivariable COX regression.Results: During a median follow up of 6.4 years, there were 775 patients had the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events 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 suppression of tumorigenesis-2 was an independent predictor in developing major adverse cardiovascular events (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 suppression of tumorigenesis-2 to established risk factors significantly improved risk prediction of the composite outcome of major adverse cardiovascular events and all-cause death (c-statistic, net reclassification index, and integrated discrimination improvement, all p＜0.05).Conclusions: Higher level of suppression of tumorigenesis-2 is significantly associated with long-term all-cause death and major adverse cardiovascular events. Suppression of tumorigenesis-2 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.

Background: Myocardial bridging (MB) is frequently seen on coronary CT angiography (CCTA). However, there has been conflicting data on the prognostic value of MB. The aim of this analysis is to determine the prognostic value of MB in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) (<50 diameter stenosis). Methods: We included patients with no known prior coronary artery disease (CAD) who underwent CCTA for various clincial reasons. Patients with obstructive CAD on CCTA were excluded. The study cohort was followed for all cause mortality or myocardial infarction (MI) (median follow-up 1.7 years). Group comparisons were made between patients with patients with or without MB. Results: A total of 715 patients were included in this analysis of which 68 patients had MB (10%). 73% of the bridges were in the mid LAD and 22% had bridging in the distal LAD. 48% of the study cohort had normal coronaries, while 52% had evidence of non obstructive CAD. There were no differences in the baseline characteristics, symptomatic status or prevalence of non obstructive CAD between the two groups (all p>0.5). After a median follow-up duration of 1.7 years, 23 patients died and 10 patients experienced myocardial infarction. There were no statistically significant differences in the rate of death/MI between the two groups (figure). Using multivariable Cox regression, the presence of MB was not associated with increased risk for death/MI (Adjusted HR 0.4, 95% confidence interval 0.1 -2.8, p=0.34) Conclusions: In patients with non-obstructive CAD, MB is not associated with increased risk for all cause death or MI.

Background: Published data indicated that combination use of clopidogrel and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) may increase the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). This has been a highly controversial topic for years. Design: The present study was performed to evaluate whether combination therapy of clopidogrel and PPIs is associated with increased risk of MACEs than with clopidogrel alone in patients with coronary artery disease. Methods: A systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library was conducted for studies recording the occurrence of MACEs in patients with exposure to concomitant use of clopidogrel and PPIs up to February 2015. Odds ratios (ORs) were combined using a random-effects model. Results: Patients receiving combination therapy with PPIs and clopidogrel were at significantly increased risk of MACEs (OR: 1.42; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30-1.55). Adding a PPI to clopidogrel treatment was associated with a higher rate of MACE occurrence in rapid metabolizers (RMs, *1/*1) of CYP2C19 (OR: 1.42; 95% CI: 1.12-1.81), but there was no obviously increased rate (OR: 1.43; 95% CI: 0.89-2.28) in decreased metabolizers (with 1 or 2 loss-of-function allele). The increased risk of MACEs was similar in 4 classes of PPIs (omeprazole, lansoprazole, esomeprazole, and pantoprazole), but rabeprazole (OR: 1.03; 95% CI: 0.55-1.95) wasn’t. Conclusion: The combination use of clopidogrel and certain types of PPIs (omeprazole, lansoprazole, esomeprazole, pantoprazole) increases the risk of MACE in patients with coronary artery disease. Only in the RMs of CYP2C19, PPIs were associated with significantly increased MACE in patients coadministered with clopidogrel.

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.

Background. Angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) plays a pivotal role in lipid metabolism and angiogenesis, and there is growing interest regarding the association between ANGPTL3 and coronary artery disease (CAD). This study aims to investigate whether ANGPTL3 levels can be used to predict the future occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) in patients with CAD. Methods. Overall, 90 patients with CAD were enrolled between January and December 2012. The study’s primary endpoint was incidence of MACEs. Patient follow-up was completed on June 30, 2017. Results. Following a median follow-up period of 54 months, 33 MACEs had occurred. Patients reporting MACEs had lower statin use (P=0.022) and higher serum C-reactive protein (P<0.001) and serum ANGPTL3 (P<0.001) levels than those without MACEs. Kaplan–Meier analysis revealed higher cumulative incidence of CV events in the high ANGPTL3 group (median ANGPTL3 level ≥ 222.37 ng/mL) than in the low ANGPTL3 group (log-rank P=0.046). Multivariable Cox regression analysis demonstrated that ANGPTL3 levels were independently associated with MACEs in patients with CAD (hazard ratio: 1.003; 95% confidence interval: 1.000–1.005; P=0.026) after adjusted for age, gender, and body mass index, classical risk factors, and potential confounders. Conclusions. Serum ANGPTL3 levels could serve as a biomarker for future occurrence of MACEs in patients with CAD.

Abstract Background The platelet-to-hemoglobin ratio (PHR) has emerged as a prognostic biomarker in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients after PCI but not clear in CAD complicated with congestive heart failure (CHF). Hence, we aimed to assess the association between PHR and long-term all-cause mortality among CAD patients with CHF. Methods Based on the registry at Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital in China, we analyzed data of 2599 hospitalized patients who underwent coronary angiography (CAG) and were diagnosed with CAD complicated by CHF from January 2007 to December 2018. Low PHR was defined as ˂ 1.69 (group 1) and high PHR as ≥ 1.69 (group 2). Prognosis analysis was performed using Kaplan–Meier method. To assess the association between PHR and long-term all-cause mortality, a Cox-regression model was fitted. Results During a median follow-up of 5.2 (3.1–7.8) years, a total of 985 (37.9%) patients died. On the Kaplan–Meier analysis, patients in high PHR group had a worse prognosis than those in low PHR group (log-rank, p = 0.0011). After adjustment for confounders, high PHR was correlated with an increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality in CAD patients complicated with CHF. (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.31; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.13–1.52, p < 0.0001). Conclusion Elevated PHR is correlated with an increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality in CAD patients with CHF. These results indicate that PHR may be a useful prognostic biomarker for this population. Meanwhile, it is necessary to take effective preventive measures to regulate both hemoglobin levels and platelet counts in this population.
