RESUMEN
Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) alters whole body metabolism and circulating biomarkers serve as prognostic markers in CS patients. Percutaneous ventricular assist devices (pVADs) unload the left ventricle by actively ejecting blood into the aorta. The goal of the present study was to identify alterations in circulating metabolites and transcripts in a large animal model that might serve as potential prognostic biomarkers in acute CS and additional left ventricular unloading by Impella ® pVAD support. Methods: CS was induced in a preclinical large animal model by injecting microspheres into the left coronary artery system in six pigs. After the induction of CS, mechanical pVAD support was implemented for 30 min total. Serum samples were collected under basal conditions, after the onset of CS, and following additional pVAD unloading. Circulating metabolites were determined by metabolomic analysis, circulating RNA entities by RNA sequencing. Results: CS and additional pVAD support alter the abundance of circulating metabolites involved in Aminoacyl-tRNA biosynthesis and amino acid metabolism. RNA sequencing revealed decreased abundance of the hypoxia sensitive miRNA-200b following the induction of CS, which was reversed following pVAD support. Conclusion: The hypoxamir miRNA-200b is a potential circulating marker that is repressed in CS and is restored following pVAD support. The early transcriptional response with increased miRNA-200b expression following only 30 min of pVAD support suggests that mechanical unloading alters whole body metabolism. Future studies are required to delineate the impact of serum miRNA-200b levels as a prognostic marker in patients with acute CS and pVAD unloading.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Cardiogenic shock is the leading cause of death in patients with acute myocardial infarction, with short-term mortality of approximately 50%. Whether diabetes mellitus and high blood glucose levels are associated with mortality in contemporary patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock is inadequately described. PURPOSE: To investigate if diabetes mellitus and high admission blood glucose were associated with 30-day mortality in a large, contemporary population with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock. METHODS: Patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock admitted at two tertiary centres in Denmark from 2010 to 2017 were individually identified through patient charts, resulting in the inclusion of 1716 cardiogenic shock patients. Glucose level at admission to the intensive care unit was available in 1302 patients. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in 30-day mortality between diabetes mellitus types I and II (63% vs. 62%, NS). Thirty-day mortality was significantly higher in diabetes patients compared to non-diabetes patients (62% vs. 50%, P < 0.001). Increasing admission glucose was associated with increasing 30-day mortality in a dose-dependent manner in diabetes mellitus (4-8 mmol/L, 41%; 8-12 mmol/L, 49%; 12-16 mmol/L, 63%; >16 mmol/L, 67%; P = 0.028) and non-diabetes patients (4-8 mmol/L, 32%; 8-12 mmol/L, 43%; 12-16 mmol/L, 57%; >16 mmol/l; 68%; P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock and concomitant diabetes mellitus type I or II had a significantly higher 30-day mortality in comparison to patients without diabetes mellitus, whereas no difference was found between diabetes mellitus types I and II. High glucose levels on admission to the intensive care unit were associated with increased 30-day mortality in diabetes mellitus and non-diabetes mellitus patients.

Objectives: To describe the contemporary trends in the use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock (AMICS). To evaluate survival benefit with early application of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) or Impella CP. Methods: A cohort study of all consecutive patients with AMICS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) <24 hours of symptom onset (early PCI) in southeastern Denmark from 2010 to 2017. A matched case-control study comparing 30-day mortality between patients receiving early-IABP or early-Impella CP and their respective control group. Controls were matched on age, left ventricular ejection fraction, arterial lactate, estimated glomerular filtration rate and cardiac arrest before PCI. Early-IABP/Impella CP was defined as applied before PCI if shock developed pre-PCI, or immediately after PCI if shock developed during PCI. Results: 903 patients with AMICS undergoing early PCI were identified. Use of MCS decreased from 50% in 2010 to 25% in 2017, p for trend of <0.001. The IABP was abandoned in 2012 and replaced mostly by Impella CP. Patients receiving MCS in 2013-2017 had more compromised haemodynamics compared with patients receiving MCS in 2010-2012. 40 patients received early IABP, and 40 patients received early Impella CP. Only the group receiving early Impella CP was associated with lower 30-day mortality compared with their matched control group (30-day mortality 40% vs 77.5%, plog-rank of<0.001). Conclusion: Use of MCS decreased by 50% from 2010 to 2017. Patients receiving MCS had more compromised haemodynamics in recent years. Early application of Impella CP was associated with reduced 30-day mortality compared with a matched control group.
