Background: Platelet reactivity is closely associated with adverse events in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients. Inflammation plays a crucial role in the development of coronary heart disease (CHD).Aim: To investigate the association of inflammatory biomarkers such as leukocyte count and high-sensitivity C reactive proteins (hs-CRP) with platelet reactivity in PCI patients treated with clopidogrel.Method: We examined 10,724 consecutive PCI patients in Fuwai hospital from January 2013 to December 2013. High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) was defined as adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet maximum amplitude [MA(ADP)] of thromboelastogram (TEG) > 47 mm, and low on-treatment platelet reactivity (LTPR) MA(ADP) < 31 mm.Results: Finally, 6,772 PCI patients treated with clopidogrel who had the results of postoperative TEG were enrolled. Among them, 2,070 (30.57%) presented HTPR and 2,568 (37.92%) presented LTPR. As for LTPR, multivariate logistic regression showed that leukocyte count (OR: 1.153, 95% CI 1.117–1.191) and hs-CRP (OR: 0.920, 95% CI 0.905–0.936) were independent predictors, along with diabetes mellites, hemoglobin, platelet count and glucose. As for HTPR, multivariate logistic regression showed that leukocyte count (OR: 0.885, 95% CI 0.854–0.917) and hs-CRP (OR: 1.094, 95% CI 1.077–1.112) were independent predictors, along with sex, hemoglobin, platelet count and glucose.Conclusions: This was the first large real-world study reporting that both leukocyte count and hs-CRP were the independent factors for platelet reactivity in PCI populations treated with clopidogrel, among which higher leukocyte count was associated with more LTPR while higher hs-CRP was associated with more HTPR, providing new insights on individualized antiplatelet therapy.

Abstract Background Patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) exhibit enhanced platelet reactivity and a rise in inflammatory biomarkers such as neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). The extent of the prothrombotic and inflammatory state are predictive of adverse outcomes in patients with acute coronary syndromes. The relationship of these markers of inflammation and thrombosis in the hyperacute phase of STEMI and, whether together, they improve cardiovascular outcome prediction, is not known. Purpose The aim of this study was to assess the individual and combined predictive values of NLR, hs-CRP, and platelet reactivity for clinical outcomes in patients with STEMI. Method In a prospective study of 541 patients presenting with STEMI, acute admission bloods taken prior to emergency percutaneous coronary intervention, were analysed for NLR and hs-CRP. Platelet reactivity was measured using the point-of-care Global Thrombosis Test, which assesses platelet reactivity in native whole blood under high shear, and measures the occlusion time (OT, sec). Shorter occlusion time represents higher platelet reactivity. The study endpoint was occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE, defined as composite of cardiovascular death [CVD], myocardial infarction [MI] or stroke [CVA]) at 30 days and 12 months. Results There was a weak, but significant, correlation between hs-CRP and NLR (r=0.25, p<0.001), and hs-CRP and platelet reactivity (r=0.14, p=0.003) on admission. There was no correlation between platelet reactivity and NLR. Amongst 541 patients, 42 patients experienced a MACE within the first 30 days, and 50 within 12 months. Cut-values associated with the highest specificity and sensitivity for 12-month MACE were NLR 5.6, hs-CRP 8 mg/L and OT 302 sec. Platelet reactivity and hs-CRP were each only weakly predictive of MACE at 30 days (platelet reactivity: hazard ratio [HR] 1.004 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.002–1.006,] p<0.001; hs-CRP: HR 1.005 [95% CI 1.0009–1.009], p=0.016) and 12 months (platelet reactivity HR 1.004 (95% CI 1.002–1.006), p<0.001; hs-CRP HR 1.005 (95% CI 1.001–1.01), p=0.014). NLR was not predictive of MACE at either 30 days or 12 months (p=NS). When patients were divided into quartiles based on hs-CRP and platelet reactivity, patients in the highest quartile for both hs-CRP and platelet reactivity had an HR 3.46 (95% CI 1.81–6.63), p<0.001 compared to those in the lowest quartile for both (HR 0.04 (95% CI 0.005–0.27), p=0.001). The combination of enhanced platelet reactivity and raised hs-CRP was the strongest predictor of MACE at 30 days (HR 2.32 [95% CI 1.71–3.13], p<0.001) and 12 months (HR 2.31 [95% CI 1.71–3.11], p<0.001). Conclusion Both hs-CRP and platelet reactivity are very weakly predictive of MACE, but in combination provide a strong predictor of adverse outcome in STEMI.

Abstract Background Gender disparities have been consistently reported in the nature, presentation, and treatment of coronary artery disease, leading to significant outcome differences. Previous reports have suggested that after adjusting for differing baseline and procedural characteristics female gender was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality after Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI). We examined this issue using data from the Genesis Cardiovascular Outcomes Registry (GCOR). Methods We prospectively collected data on 10,989 PCI procedures from January 2009 to January 2018 from 12 Australian Hospitals, and compared the baseline patient and procedural characteristics and 1-year mortality by gender. Results Female patients were more likely than males to present with NSTEMI (23.0% vs. 21.1%, p=0.042), however less likely to have prior MI (19.5% vs. 24.2%, p<0.001) or PCI (28.8% vs 33.6%, p<0.001). Procedural success rates were similar between females and males (97.2%). On multivariate logistic regression, female gender had a higher rate of all cause mortality (OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.31 to 1.07; P=0.08) but similar rates of MACE (OR 0.84, 95% CI 0.55 to 1.07, P=0.42). Variables contributing to an increased risk of mortality in female patients, included a history of previous heart failure (OR 2.45, 95% CI 1.15 to 5.22; p=0.02), myocardial infarction (OR 2.06, 95% CI 1.09 to 3.90; p=0.026), and peripheral vascular disease (OR 2.69, 95% CI 1.32 to 5.47; p=0.006). Performing PCI to the LMCA significantly increased the risk of mortality in female patients (OR 3.84, 95% CI 1.14 to 12.9; p=0.029), and the use of BMS vs DES contributed to a worse outcome in women compared to men (OR 0.46, 95% CI 0.25 to 0.84; p=0.012). The presence of hypercholesterolaemia in women significantly increased the risk of mortality (OR 0.44, 95% CI 0.22 to 0.86; p=0.016). Multivariate logistic regression assessing 1-year outcome by gender for all-cause mortality, MACE, and unplanned admissions Outcome Male (vs female) Odds ratio 95% CI P-value Death (143) 0.58 0.31 to 1.07 0.08 MACE (334) 0.84 0.55 to 1.28 0.42 Unplanned readmission (888) 0.79 0.63 to 0.98 0.04 Conclusion Women have significant differences in baseline characteristics and increased all-cause mortality at 1 year compared to men, although overall MACE rates are similar. This study increases awareness of women at high risk, highlighting the need to improve the care of women undergoing PCI.

Abstract Background: There is limited data on percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion (CTO) with previous failed attempt. The objective of this study is to investigate a risk score for prediction of successful percutaneous coronary intervention for prior failure CTO. Methods: Patients with previous attempt were enrolled in our study retrospectively from Jan. of 2016 to Dec. of 2019. All clinical and procedural data was collected and analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression was performed to investigate the predictors of technical success. Results: A total of 194 patients/CTO lesions were studied. The technical success rate was 66.0%. The multivariate logistic regression showed that occlusion length <20mm (OR= 2.94, 95% CI= 1.36±6.37, score= 1), non-calcification (OR= 2.93, 95% CI= 1.36±6.30, score=1), adequate distal landing zone (OR= 4.46, 95% CI= 2.06±9.66, score=1), Rentrop grade ≥2 (OR= 5.98, CI= 2.46±14.51, score =1), and retrograde approach as initial strategy (OR= 10.28, 95% CI= 3.58±29.50, score =2) was the predictor of re-attempt success of PCI. The technical success rate for a score from 0 to ≥4 was 0%, 17.9%, 46.2%, 77.8%, 93.3% respectively. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the five predictors and integers was 0.837 and 0.832 respectively. Conclusions: The technical success rate for CTO PCI with previous failure was acceptable. Our score system can be used to predict the success rate of re-attempt CTO PCI.

BACKGROUND Coronary microvascular obstruction /no-reflow(CMVO/NR) is a predictor of long-term mortality in survivors of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). OBJECTIVE To identify risk factors of CMVO/NR. METHODS Totally 2384 STEMI patients treated with PPCI were divided into two groups according to thrombolysis in myocardial infarction(TIMI) flow grade:CMVO/NR group(246cases,TIMI 0-2 grade) and control group(2138 cases,TIMI 3 grade). We used univariable and multivariable logistic regression to identify risk factors of CMVO/NR. RESULTS A frequency of CMVO/NR was 10.3%(246/2384). Logistic regression analysis showed that the differences between the two groups in age(unadjusted odds ratios [OR] 1.032; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.045; adjusted OR 1.032; 95% CI, 1.02 to 1.046 ; P <0.001), periprocedural bradycardia (unadjusted OR 2.357 ; 95% CI, 1.752 to 3.171; adjusted OR1.818; 95% CI, 1.338 to 2.471 ; P <0.001),using thrombus aspirationdevices during operation (unadjusted OR 2.489 ; 95% CI, 1.815 to 3.414; adjusted OR1.835; 95% CI, 1.291 to 2.606 ; P =0.001),neutrophil percentage (unadjusted OR 1.028 ; 95% CI, 1.014 to 1.042; adjusted OR1.022; 95% CI, 1.008 to 1.036 ; P =0.002) , and completely block of culprit vessel (unadjusted OR 2.626; 95% CI, 1.85 to 3.728; adjusted-OR 1.656;95% CI, 1.119 to 2.45; P =0.012) were statistically significant ( P <0. 05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.6896 . CONCLUSIONS Age , periprocedural bradycardia, using thrombus aspirationdevices during operation, neutrophil percentage ,and completely block of culprit vessel may be independent risk factors for predicting CMVO/NR.

AbstractHigh on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) with P2Y12 receptor antagonists in patients treated with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is strongly associated with adverse ischemic events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This prospective study was conducted to assess individual platelet response and HPR to antiplatelet medications in post-PCI cases by thromboelastography platelet mapping (TEG-PM). Total 82 patients who were on aspirin and on either clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor were evaluated. The percentage of platelet inhibition to arachidonic acid (AA) and adenosine disdiphosphate (ADP) was calculated by [100-{(MA ADP/AA–MA Fibrin) / (MA Thrombin–MA Fibrin) × 100}], taking 50% response as cut-off for HPR. HPR to clopidogrel and prasugrel was 14.29 and 12.5%, respectively. No HPR was detected to aspirin and ticagrelor. The mean percentage of platelet inhibition was significantly higher in patients with ticagrelor 82.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) of [77.3, 88.7] as compared with clopidogrel 72.21, 95% CI of [65.3, 79.1] and prasugrel 64.2, 95% CI of [52.5, 75.9] (p-value of 0.041 and 0.003, respectively). Aspirin along with ticagrelor is associated with a higher mean percentage of platelet inhibition, and lower HPR as compared with the usage of aspirin combined with clopidogrel or prasugrel. Additionally, it might also be concluded that TEG-PM could be used effectively to measure the individual platelet functions which would make oral antiplatelet therapy more personalized for cardiac patients.

SummaryTo date, there is limited data on levels of platelet inhibition achieved in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who are loaded with clopidogrel and aspirin (ASA) prior to undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (P-PCI). The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the percentage of STEMI patients with high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) to clopidogrel at the time of initiating P-PCI and its association with the initial patency of the infarct-related artery (IRA). This prospective pharmacodynamic study included 50 STEMI patients, previously naïve to oral antiplatelet agents, who received 500-mg ASA and 600-mg clopidogrel loading doses prior to P-PCI. Platelet function assessment was performed at the beginning of the procedure using various assays, including VerifyNow™ system (primary endpoint), light transmission aggregometry and multiple electrode aggregometry. The percentage of patients with suboptimal response to clopidogrel and ASA assessed with the VerifyNow™ system was 88.0% and 28.6%, respectively. Similar results were obtained with the other assays used. A higher percentage of patients with initial patency of the IRA was observed among those patients without HPR compared with those with HPR to clopidogrel (66.7% vs 15.9%; p=0.013), while no differences were observed regarding postprocedural angiographic or electrocardiographic outcomes. In conclusion, this study shows that a high percentage of STEMI patients have inadequate levels of clopidogrel-induced and, to a lesser extent, aspirin-mediated platelet inhibition when starting a P-PCI procedure, and suggests that a poor response to clopidogrel might be associated with impaired initial TIMI flow in the IRA.
