Prior Stroke

Background: We found a positive correlation between the prior stroke history and recurrent stroke in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in our previous study, which indicated the close interaction of stroke and cardiovascular diseases. However, it is unclear whether prior stroke is still associated with worse prognosis at a longer follow-up period.Methods: A total of 10,724 coronary heart disease (CHD) patients who received PCI from January to December 2013 were prospectively enrolled and were subsequently divided into the prior stroke (n = 1,150) and non-prior stroke (n = 9,574) groups according to their history. Baseline characteristics and 5-year outcomes were recorded.Results: Patients with prior stroke had more clinical risk factors, as well as more extensive coronary artery lesions. Although in-hospital outcomes were similar between patients from the two groups, the 5-year follow-up result revealed that patients with prior stroke experienced higher incidence of stroke, major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs), all-cause death, and cardiac death (7.0 vs. 3.0%, p < 0.001; 25.9 vs. 20.3%, p < 0.001; 5.3 vs. 3.5%, p = 0.002; 3.1 vs. 2.1%, p = 0.032, respectively). After the propensity score matching, the 5-year stroke rate was still higher in the prior stroke group (6.8 vs. 3.4%, p = 0.001). The multivariable regression analysis also identified the prior stroke as a risk predictor of the 5-year stroke (HR = 2.011, 95% CI: 1.322–3.059, p = 0.001).Conclusions: Coronary heart disease patients with prior stroke who received PCI had a higher incidence of 5-year long-term adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, especially recurrent stroke. Prior stroke was a strong risk predictor of future stroke events.

Purpose: N-terminal fragment of the B type-natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is an established tool for assessing acute dyspnoea and stratifying risk in heart failure, acute coronary syndromes (ACS), and stable coronary heart disease (SCHD). The aim of this study was to determine the value of NT-proBNP in predicting long-term risk of patients (Pts) submitted to elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the setting of SCHD. Methods: We prospectively studied 291 Pts (age 64.3±9.6 years, 64 female) with SCHD submitted to successful elective PCI, and determined NT-proBNP immediately before PCI. Pts were divided into 2 groups according to NT-proBNP level: group T3 formed by Pts with NT-proBNP level in the highest tertile and group T1+T2 formed by all remaining Pts. The study endpoint was time to the first occurrence of death (D) or non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) during the mean follow-up of 568 ± 322 days. Multivariable analyses were performed to adjust the prognostic value of NT-proBNP for the effects of factors known to influence NT-proBNP (age, gender, renal function, body mass index) and of other potential predictors of outcome (cardiovascular risk factors, prior cardiovascular events, left ventricular ejection fraction, and PCI characteristics). Results: NT-proBNP ranged from 5 pg/ml to 104 pg/ml in the 1st tertile (T1), 105 pg/ml to 358 pg/ml in the 2nd tertile (T2), and 364 pg/ml to 33.991 pg/ml in the 3rd tertile (T3). During follow-up, 8 Pts died and 11 suffered a non-fatal MI. NT-proBNP was significantly higher in Pts who experienced an adverse outcome (440 pg/ml [inter-quartile range, 104 –1712] vs 174 pg/ml [inter-quartile range, 78 – 460) in Pts with uneventful follow-up; P= 0.007). An NT-proBNP level ≥364 pg/ml was associated with a higher endpoint rate (13.4% vs 3.1% in group T1+T2) and independently predicted outcome: adjusted hazard ratio 3.11, 95% CI, 1.15– 8.37, P=0.025. The sensitivity, specificity, predictive positive value, and negative predictive value for the criterion NT-proBNP ≥364 pg/ml were 68.4%, 69.1%, 13.4%, and 96.9%, respectively. Conclusion: In the setting of SCHD, the level of NT-proBNP is a powerful prognostic marker even after successful PCI.

The present study aimed at assessing sex differences in perioperative characteristics and 3-year event-free survival from major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Armenia. The study utilized an observational, retrospective cohort design enrolling patients who underwent PCI from 2006 to 2008 at a single center in Yerevan, Armenia. Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events included all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), repeat revascularization, or stroke/transient ischemic attack. Among 485 participants included in the analysis, 419 (86%) were men. Women were older, more hypertensive, more obese, and had significantly higher rates of diabetes. At the end of follow-up, the incidence of MACCE was 37% for men and 33% for women (P=0.9). Based on the results from the adjusted Cox proportional hazards model, the independent predictors of MACCE included acute MI [hazard ratio (HR)=1.43, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-2.00], arrhythmia (HR=1.64, 95% CI: 1.07-2.50), sex (HR=2.46, 95% CI: 1.08- 5.61), diabetes (HR=5.65, 95% CI: 2.14-14.95), and the interaction between sex and diabetes (HR=0.16; 95% CI: 0.05-0.47). Among diabetic patients, men had better event-free survival from MACCE (HR=0.40, 95% CI: 0.19-0.85) than women, whereas in patients without diabetes men had worse outcomes than women (95% CI: 1.08-5.62). In Armenia, the baseline profile of women undergoing PCI differed considerably from that of men. In patients with diabetes, women had worse outcomes at long-term follow-up, while the opposite was noted in patients without diabetes.

Background: Adherence to treatment is a crucial factor in preventing the progression of coronary heart disease. More evidence of the predictors of long-term adherence is needed. Aims: The purpose of this study was to identify the predictive factors of adherence to treatment six years after percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: Baseline data ( n=416) was collected in 2013 and follow-up data in 2019 ( n=169) at two university hospitals and three central hospitals in Finland. The self-reported Adherence of Patients with Chronic Disease Instrument was used. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression analysis. Results: The respondents reported higher adherence to a healthy lifestyle six years after percutaneous coronary intervention in comparison to four months post-percutaneous coronary intervention; adherence was seen in their healthy behaviour, such as decreased smoking and reduced alcohol consumption. Participating in regular follow-up control predicted adherence. Support from next of kin predicted physical activity and normal cholesterol levels; this outcome was associated with close relationships, which also predicted willingness to be responsible for treatment adherence. Women perceived lower support from nurses and physicians, and they had more fear of complications. Fear was more common among respondents with a longer duration of coronary heart disease. Physical activity and male gender were associated with perceived results of care. Conclusion: Support from next of kin, nurses and physicians, results of care, responsibility, fear of complication and continuum of care predicted adherence to treatment in long term. These issues should be emphasised among women, patients without a close relationship, physically inactive and those with a longer duration of coronary heart disease.

Calcified Coronary Lesions

Despite advances in technology, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of severely calcified coronary lesions remains challenging. Rotational atherectomy is one of the current therapeutic options to manage calcified lesions, but has a limited role in facilitating the dilation or stenting of lesions that cannot be crossed or expanded with other PCI techniques due to unfavourable clinical outcome in long-term follow-up. However the results of orbital atherectomy presented in the ORBIT I and ORBIT II trials were encouraging. In addition to these encouraging data, necessity for sufficient lesion preparation before implantation of bioresorbable scaffolds lead to resurgence in the use of atherectomy. This article summarises currently available publications on orbital atherectomy (Cardiovascular Systems Inc.) and compares them with rotational atherectomy.

Long Term Mortality

Background: Mortality benefit of routine intracoronary thrombus aspiration during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been questioned. The recent TASTE trial did not show a mortality benefit with thrombus aspiration at 1 month, however benefits from accompanying reductions in myocyte injury might accrue over time. A meta-analysis of randomized trials (RCTs) was performed to evaluate the effect of follow up duration on effectiveness of aspiration thrombectomy. Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, Web of Science and CINAHL databases were searched through March, 2014. We included RCTs with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients randomized to aspiration thrombectomy prior to primary PCI compared with conventional primary PCI alone. Two individuals reviewed the trials for inclusion and extracted data from the RCTs. We used random-effects models. Results: Data were pooled from 16 RCTs with 11,649 patients. All-cause mortality was significantly lower with aspiration thrombectomy after at least 12 months of follow up (Odds ratio [OR] =0. 61; 95% CI 0.37-0.99; p=0. 05). Pooled data for other time frames, i.e in-hospital, 1 month, 6 month follow up, did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion: Beneficial effects of thrombus aspiration on mortality are not evident until 12 months post-procedure, consistent with the long-term effects of myocardial salvage. Subsequent trials evaluating thrombus removal should accordingly be powered for long-term mortality in addition to known procedural and angiographic endpoints.

Background: Many studies have demonstrated that deferral of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on the basis of a myocardial fractional flow reserve (FFR) ≥0.75 is associated with a very low coronary event rate. However, some groups have empirically chosen the cut-off value of 0.80 rather than 0.75 for decision to defer PCI and the FFR measurement between 0.75 and 0.80 has been established as a grey zone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term clinical outcomes of patients with moderate coronary lesions and FFR measurements between 0.75 and 0.80. Methods: The study included 125 anigiographically moderate coronary lesions (>50% diameter stenosis by visual assessment) in 125 patients but in whom the PCI was deferred on the basis of an FFR ≥ 0.75. The FFR was calculated as the ratio of mean distal pressure divided by the proximal pressure during hyperemia. Patients were divided into two groups according to the result of FFR: ≥ 0.80 (n=99, group 1) and between 0.75 and 0.79 (n=26, group 2). We evaluated the long-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) related and unrelated to the FFR-evaluated lesion. Results: During a follow-up period of 82 ± 29 months (mean ± SD), The Kaplan-Meier event-free survival curves showed that group 2 was poorer than group 1 in prognosis (p=0.0148). The incidence of MACE unrelated FFR-evaluated lesion in group 1 was equivalent to that in group 2 (p=0.96). Conclusions: In patients with moderate coronary lesions and borderline FFR measurements, deferral of PCI was associated with a higher rate of MACE related to the FFR-evaluated lesion. FFR cut-off point of 0.80 instead of 0.75 may be more appropriate for deferring PCI.
