RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Acute ischaemic stroke (AIS) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a rare, but debilitating, complication. However, contemporary data from real-world unselected patients are scarce. AIMS: We aimed to explore the temporal trends, outcomes and variables associated with AIS as well as in-hospital all-cause mortality in a nationwide cohort. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of healthcare records from 2006-2021 was implemented. Patients were stratified according to the occurrence of AIS in the setting of PCI. The temporal trends of AIS were analysed. A stepwise regression model was used to identify variables associated with AIS and in-hospital all-cause mortality. RESULTS: A total of 4,910,430 PCIs were included for the current analysis. AIS occurred in 4,098 cases (0.08%). An incremental increase in the incidence of AIS after PCI from 0.03% to 0.14% per year was observed from 2006-2021. The strongest associations with AIS after PCI included carotid artery disease, medical history of stroke, atrial fibrillation, presentation with an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-STEMI and coronary thrombectomy. For patients with AIS, a higher in-hospital all-cause mortality (18.11% vs 3.29%; p<0.001) was documented. With regard to all-cause mortality, the strongest correlations in the stroke cohort were found for cardiogenic shock, dialysis and clinical presentation with a STEMI. CONCLUSIONS: In an unselected nationwide cohort of patients hospitalised for PCI, a gradual increase in AIS incidence was noted. We identified several variables associated with AIS as well as with in-hospital mortality. Hereby, clinicians might identify the patient population at risk for a peri-interventional AIS as well as those at risk for an adverse in-hospital outcome after PCI.

BACKGROUND: We used the Spanish national hospital discharge data from 2016 to 2022 to analyze procedures and hospital outcomes among patients aged ≥ 18 years admitted for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) according to diabetes mellitus (DM) status (non-diabetic, type 1-DM or type 2-DM). METHODS: We built logistic regression models for STEMI/NSTEMI stratified by DM status to identify variables associated with in-hospital mortality (IHM). We analyzed the effect of DM on IHM. RESULTS: Spanish hospitals reported 201,950 STEMIs (72.7% non-diabetic, 0.5% type 1-DM, and 26.8% type 2-DM; 26.3% female) and 167,285 NSTEMIs (61.6% non-diabetic, 0.6% type 1-DM, and 37.8% type 2-DM; 30.9% female). In STEMI, the frequency of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) increased among non-diabetic people (60.4% vs. 68.6%; p < 0.001) and people with type 2-DM (53.6% vs. 66.1%; p < 0.001). In NSTEMI, the frequency of PCI increased among non-diabetic people (43.7% vs. 45.7%; p < 0.001) and people with type 2-DM (39.1% vs. 42.8%; p < 0.001). In NSTEMI, the frequency of coronary artery by-pass grafting (CABG) increased among non-diabetic people (2.8% vs. 3.5%; p < 0.001) and people with type 2-DM (3.7% vs. 5.0%; p < 0.001). In the entire population, lower IHM was associated with undergoing PCI (odds ratio [OR] [95% confidence interval] = 0.34 [0.32-0.35] in STEMI; 0.24 [0.23-0.26] in NSTEMI) or CABG (0.33 [0.27-0.40] in STEMI; 0.45 [0.38-0.53] in NSTEMI). IHM decreased over time in STEMI (OR = 0.86 [0.80-0.93]). Type 2-DM was associated with higher IHM in STEMI (OR = 1.06 [1.01-1.11]). CONCLUSIONS: PCI and CABG were associated with lower IHM in people admitted for STEMI/NSTEMI. Type 2-DM was associated with IHM in STEMI.

BACKGROUND: Few large-scale studies have evaluated the effectiveness of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) technological advances in the treatment of patients with unprotected left main coronary artery disease (LM-CAD). We aim to identify independent factors that affect the prognosis of PCI in patients with unprotected LM-CAD and to assess the impact of PCI technological advances on long-term clinical outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 4512 consecutive patients who underwent unprotected LM-CAD PCI at Fuwai Hospital from 2004 to 2016 were enrolled. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify which techniques can independently affect the incidence of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs; a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or target vessel revascularization). The incidence of 3-year MACEs was 9.0% (406/4512). Four new PCI techniques were identified as the independent protective factors of MACEs, including second-generation drug-eluting stents (hazard ratio [HR], 0.61 [95% CI, 0.37-0.99]), postdilatation (HR, 0.75 [95% CI, 0.59-0.94]), final kissing balloon inflation (HR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.62-0.99]), and using intravascular ultrasound (HR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.63-0.97]). The relative hazard of 3-year MACEs was reduced by ≈50% with use of all 4 techniques compared with no technique use (HR, 0.53 [95% CI, 0.32-0.87]). CONCLUSIONS: PCI technological advances including postdilatation, second-generation drug-eluting stent, final kissing balloon inflation, and intravascular ultrasound guidance were associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients who underwent unprotected LM-CAD PCI.

BACKGROUND: Coronary artery dissection is managed primarily conservatively with serial imaging or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Exposure to contrast in either modality could potentially result in acute tubular necrosis (ATN). However, no data compares ATN incidence in these management strategies. This study compares the incidence of ATN and associated mortality of PCI and conservative management of coronary artery dissection. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed using data from the National Inpatient Sample database, including patients with coronary artery dissection between 2016 through 2020. We analyzed the incidence of ATN and associated mortality of PCI and conservative management of coronary artery dissection. RESULTS: We found that the odds of developing ATN were 22% lower in patients managed with PCI than those managed conservatively. There was no difference in the in-hospital mortality or hospital length of stay between the two groups but the mortality rate in patients with ATN was double that of those who did not develop ATN in both PCI and conservatively managed groups. CONCLUSIONS: The higher incidents of ATN in patients with coronary dissection being managed with conservative measures compared to PCI suggest that the use of CTA may be harmful. Additionally, persons who developed ATN may have higher mortality. Therefore, more studies in the management of coronary artery dissection need to be done which would allow further steps to be taken to reduce this harm.

BACKGROUND: The very long-term outcomes of off-pump versus on-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) are largely unclear. We linked 20-years outcomes of two randomized trials to evaluate re-intervention and mortality outcomes for on-pump CABG, off-pump CABG and PCI. METHODS: A data linkage project was performed using data as registered within the Netherlands Heart Registration (NHR), Statistics Netherlands (CBS) and the Octopus trials. Between 1998 and 2000, these trials randomized patients with coronary artery disease to on-pump versus off-pump CABG (OctoPump trial), or to PCI versus off-pump CABG (OctoStent trial). With data linkage, the original 5 years follow-up time for clinical events was extended to 20 years, including mortality and coronary reinterventions. RESULTS: After 20 years, in the OctoPump trial all-cause mortality was 50.0% after on-pump, and 46.5% after off-pump CABG. There was no difference in the combined outcome of mortality and re-interventions (HR 0.82, 95% CI 0.59-1.12). In the OctoStent trial, all-cause mortality was 56.7% after PCI and 52.5% after off-pump CABG. There was no difference in the combined outcome of mortality and re-interventions (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.57-1.04). Off-pump CABG patients underwent less re-interventions than PCI patients (HR 0.52, 95% CI 0.33-0.80). CONCLUSION: This study revealed no differences in 20-year survival between patients randomized to on-pump versus off-pump CABG, or to PCI versus off-pump-CABG. However, off-pump CABG patients underwent less re-interventions than PCI patients.

The development of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been one of the greatest advances in cardiology and has changed clinical practice for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Despite continuous improvements in operators' experience, techniques, and the development of new-generation devices, significant challenges remain in improving the efficacy of PCI, including calcification, bifurcation, multivascular disease, stent restenosis, and stent thrombosis, among others. The present review aims to provide an overview of the current status of knowledge of endovascular revascularization in CAD, including relevant trials, therapeutic strategies, and new technologies addressing particular scenarios that can impact the prognosis of this vulnerable population.

BACKGROUND: With an aging population and an increase in the comorbidity burden of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the management of coronary calcification for optimal PCI is critical in contemporary practice. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to examine the trends and outcomes of coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL), rotational/orbital atherectomy, or both among patients who underwent PCI in Michigan. METHODS: We included all PCIs between January 1, 2021, and June 30, 2022, performed at 48 Michigan hospitals. Outcomes included in-hospital major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) and procedural success. RESULTS: IVL was used in 1,090 patients (2.57%), atherectomy was used in 1,743 (4.10%) patients, and both were used in 240 patients (0.57% of all PCIs). IVL use increased from 0.04% of PCI cases in January 2021 to 4.28% of cases in June 2022, ultimately exceeding the rate of atherectomy use. The rate of MACEs (4.3% vs 5.4%; P = 0.23) and procedural success (89.4% vs 89.1%; P = 0.88) were similar among patients treated with IVL compared with atherectomy, respectively. Only 15.6% of patients treated with IVL in contemporary practice were similar to the population enrolled in the pivotal IVL trials. Among such patients (n = 169), the rate of MACEs (0.0%) and procedural success (94.7%) were similar to the outcomes reported in the pivotal IVL trials. CONCLUSIONS: Since its introduction in February 2021, coronary IVL use has steadily increased, exceeding atherectomy use in Michigan by February 2022. Contemporary use of IVL and atherectomy is generally associated with high rates of procedural success and low rates of complications.

BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) admissions and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) volume declined during periods of COVID-19 lockdown internationally in 2020. The effect of lockdown on emergency medical service (EMS) utilisation, and PCI volume during the initial phase of the pandemic in Australia has not been well described. METHOD: We analysed data from the Victorian Cardiac Outcomes Registry (VCOR), a state-wide PCI registry, linked with the Ambulance Victoria EMS registry. PCI volume, 30-day major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE; composite of mortality, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, unplanned revascularisation, and stroke), and EMS utilisation were compared over four time periods: lockdown (26 Mar 2020-12 May 2020); pre-lockdown (26 Feb 2020-25 Mar 2020); post-lockdown (13 May 2020-10 Jul 2020); and the year prior (26 Mar 2019-12 May 2019). Interrupted time series analysis was performed to assess PCI trends within and between consecutive periods. RESULTS: The EMS utilisation for ACS during lockdown was higher compared with other periods: lockdown 39.4% vs pre-lockdown 29.7%; vs post-lockdown 33.6%; vs year prior 27.1%; all p<0.01. Median daily PCI cases were similar: 31 (IQR 10, 38) during lockdown; 39 (15, 49) pre-lockdown; 39.5 (11, 44) post-lockdown; and, 42 (10, 49) the year prior; all p>0.05. Median door-to-procedure time for ACS indication during lockdown was shorter at 3 hours (1.2, 20.6) vs pre-lockdown 3.9 (1.7, 21); vs post-lockdown 3.5 (1.5, 21.26); and, the year prior 3.5 (1.5, 23.7); all p<0.05. Lockdown period was associated with lower odds for 30-day MACCE compared to pre-lockdown (odds ratio [OR] 0.55 [0.33-0.93]; p=0.026); post-lockdown (OR 0.66; [0.40-1.06]; p=0.087); and the year prior (OR 0.55 [0.33-0.93]; p=0.026). CONCLUSIONS: Contrary to international trends, EMS utilisation for ACS increased during lockdown but PCI volumes remained similar throughout the initial stages of the pandemic in Victoria, with no observed adverse effect on 30-day MACCE during lockdown. These data suggest that the public health response in Victoria was not associated with poorer quality cardiovascular care in patients receiving PCI.

BACKGROUND: Chronic total occlusions (CTO) occur in about 20% of patients referred for coronary angiography, and right coronary artery (RCA) CTO has been reported in 38-50% of the entire CTO population. Limited data on angiographic and procedural characteristics of RCA-CTO and the risk of adverse cardiac events asks for a detailed study. METHODS: From 2010 to 2013, patients with attempted revascularization of at least one CTO lesion were included and followed up to 5 years after PCI. Eligible patients are assigned to RCA-CTO and non-RCA-CTO groups based on their target vessels. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs; a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI) or rehospitalization for heart failure), and secondary endpoints were cardiac death, target lesion revascularization (TLR) and target vessel revascularization (TVR). RESULTS: The present study included 2659 eligible patients, among which 1285 patients were assigned to the RCA-CTO group, whereas 1374 patients were assigned to the non-RCA-CTO group. Lesions in RCA had longer lesion length, higher J-CTO score, higher rates of severe vessel tortuosity, a higher percentage of Rentrop grade 2-3, and more likely to be re-try lesion than those in LAD or LCX (all P < 0.01). CTO lesions in RCA reached less successful recanalization and post-procedural TIMI 3 flow (all <0.01). Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that RCA-CTO was not associated with primary outcome MACEs. Besides MACEs, RCA-CTO was also not associated with cardiac death, but was significantly associated with TLR and TVR (adjusted HR: 1.37 [95% CI:1.07-1.76], P = 0.01; adjusted HR: 1.43 [95% CI:1.13-1.82], P = 0.003). CONCLUSION: RCA-CTO lesions, which had more complex angiographic features, independently contributed to TLR and TVR but not to MACEs or cardiac death in the 5 years of follow-up.

BACKGROUND: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common underlying cause of de novo heart failure (HF) and is associated with poor outcome despite advances in medical therapy. There are no data clearly supporting coronary angiogram (CVG) and revascularization in this setting. METHODS: We analysed a nationwide, comprehensive, and universal administrative database of consecutive patients for the first time admitted in hospital for HF, without a history of CAD, who survived 30 days after index admission from 2015 to 2019 in Italy. Enrolled patients were classified into subjects who did not undergo CVG; those who underwent CVG without coronary revascularization; those who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); and those who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). RESULTS: During the study period, 342,090 patients were hospitalized for the first time due to HF and survived 30 days after admission, in Italy. Among them, 30,806 (9.0%) patients underwent CVG without undergoing coronary revascularization, 5855 (1.7%) underwent PCI and 1594 (0.5%) underwent CABG. After adjusting for age, gender and comorbidity, the hazard ratio (HR) for 1-year all-cause mortality in patients undergoing CVG vs no CVG were 0.56 (p < 0.0001), 0.66 (p < 0.0001) and 0.83 (p = 0.020) for CVG, PCI and CABG patients, respectively. When considering the re-hospitalization for HF as the outcome, using death as a competing risk, after multiple corrections, CVG (HR = 0.80; p < 0.0001) and CABG (HR = 0.73; p < 0.0002) were protective versus No CVG, but not PCI (HR = 1.02; p = 0.642). CONCLUSIONS: This study provides evidence that CVG and coronary revascularization may be beneficial for patients with de novo HF.

BACKGROUND: There is limited data around drivers of changes in mortality over time. We aimed to examine the temporal changes in mortality and understand its determinants over time. METHODS: 743,149 PCI procedures for patients from the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society (BCIS) database who were aged between 18 and 100 years and underwent Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) for Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) in England and Wales between 2006 and 2021 were included. We decomposed the contributing factors to the difference in the observed mortality proportions between 2006 and 2021 using Fairlie decomposition method. Multiple imputation was used to address missing data. RESULTS: Overall, there was an increase in the mortality proportion over time, from 1.7% (95% CI: 1.5% to 1.9%) in 2006 to 3.1% (95% CI: 3.0% to 3.2%) in 2021. 61.2% of this difference was explained by the variables included in the model. ACS subtypes (percentage contribution: 14.67%; 95% CI: 5.76% to 23.59%) and medical history (percentage contribution: 13.50%; 95% CI: 4.33% to 22.67%) were the strongest contributors to the difference in the observed mortality proportions between 2006 and 2021. Also, there were different drivers to mortality changes between different time periods. Specifically, ACS subtypes and severity of presentation were amongst the strongest contributors between 2006 and 2012 while access site and demographics were the strongest contributors between 2012 and 2021. CONCLUSIONS: Patient factors and the move towards ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) PCI have driven the short-term mortality changes following PCI for ACS the most.

BACKGROUND: Over the past decade, major society guidelines have recommended the use of newer P2Y12 inhibitors over clopidogrel for those undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome. It is unclear what impact these recommendations had on clinical practice. METHODS AND RESULTS: All percutaneous coronary intervention procedures (n=534 210) for acute coronary syndrome in England and Wales (April 1, 2010, to March 31, 2022) were retrospectively analyzed, stratified by choice of preprocedural P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel, ticagrelor, and prasugrel). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to examine odds ratios of receipt of ticagrelor and prasugrel (versus clopidogrel) over time, and predictors of their receipt. Overall, there was a significant increase in receipt of newer P2Y12 inhibitors from 2010 to 2020 (2022 versus 2010: ticagrelor odds ratio, 8.12 [95% CI, 7.67-8.60]; prasugrel odds ratio, 6.14 [95% CI, 5.53-6.81]), more so in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction than non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome indication. The most significant increase in odds of receipt of prasugrel was observed between 2020 and 2022 (P<0.001), following a decline/plateau in its use in earlier years (2011-2019). In contrast, the odds of receipt of ticagrelor significantly increased in earlier years (2012-2017, Ptrend<0.001), after which the trend was stable (Ptrend=0.093). CONCLUSIONS: Over a 13-year-period, there has been a significant increase in use of newer P2Y12 inhibitors, although uptake of prasugrel use remained significantly lower than ticagrelor. Earlier society guidelines (pre-2017) were associated with the highest rates of ticagrelor use for non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome and ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction cases while the ISAR-REACT 5 (Prospective, Randomized Trial of Ticagrelor Versus Prasugrel in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome) trial and later society guidelines were associated with higher prasugrel use, mainly for ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction indication.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the trends and impact of changes in management of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) from 2010 to 2019. DESIGN: Retrospective analysis of data from STEMI hospitalisations including demographic, comorbidity, angiographic and outcome data. SETTING/PARTICIPANTS: High-volume non-surgical regional Australian tertiary referral centre. MAIN OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS: Index & 12-month mortality (all-cause & cardiovascular), door-to-balloon time, target-vessel failure, target-vessel revascularisation & procedure-related bleeding. RESULTS: From 2010 to 2019, 1299 patients presented with STEMI. The cardiovascular risk factor profile did not significantly change over the 10-year study period, p = 0.23. There was a significant trend toward culprit vessel percutaneous coronary intervention with stenting, rather than balloon angioplasty followed by surgical revascularisation, p = 0.029. The mean door-to-balloon time was 88 +/- 5.7 min and demonstrated a statistically significant improvement across the decade, p = 0.035. Radial access became the preferred angiographic approach (2010 92% femoral, 2019 91% radial). Drug-eluting stents (DES) replaced bare metal stent use. There was a statistically significant reduction in 12-month cardiovascular mortality across the decade (p = 0.042). However index hospitalisation (cardiovascular and all-cause) and 12-month all-cause mortality did not reduce. Young patients and women are important sub-groups of STEMI presentations with different risk factor profile. CONCLUSIONS: Advances in management of STEMI such as radial access, use of DES and a significant reduction in door-to-balloon time across the decade resulted in a reduction of 12-month cardiovascular mortality over the decade however there was no significant reduction in 12-month all-cause mortality, or index hospitalisation cardiovascular or index hospitalisation all-cause mortality. Further research is needed to ensure non-mortality outcomes, such as heart failure hospitalisation and quality of life, also demonstrate temporal improvement with STEMI management advances. Earlier cardiovascular risk assessment should be considered in smokers than is currently recommended in Australian guidelines (≥45yo for most individuals).

BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) models have the potential to accurately predict outcomes and offer novel insights into inter-variable correlations. In this study, we aimed to design ML models for the prediction of 1-year mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome. METHODS: This study was performed on 13,682 patients at Tehran Heart Center from 2015 to 2021. Patients were split into 70:30 for testing and training. Four ML models were designed: a traditional Logistic Regression (LR) model, Random Forest (RF), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), and Ada Boost models. The importance of features was calculated using the RF feature selector and SHAP based on the XGBoost model. The Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC-ROC) for the prediction on the testing dataset was the main measure of the model's performance. RESULTS: From a total of 9,073 patients with >1-year follow-up, 340 participants died. Higher age and higher rates of comorbidities were observed in these patients. Body mass index and lipid profile demonstrated a U-shaped correlation with the outcome. Among the models, RF had the best discrimination (AUC 0.866), while the highest sensitivity (80.9%) and specificity (88.3%) were for LR and XGBoost models, respectively. All models had AUCs of >0.8. CONCLUSION: ML models can predict 1-year mortality after PCI with high performance. A classic LR statistical approach showed comparable results with other ML models. The individual-level assessment of inter-variable correlations provided new insights into the non-linear contribution of risk factors to post-PCI mortality.

BACKGROUND: Emergency coronary artery bypass surgery (eCABG) is a serious complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI). METHODS: We examined the incidence and outcomes eCABG among 14,512 CTO PCIs performed between 2012 and 2023 in a large multicenter registry. RESULTS: The incidence of eCABG was 0.12% (n = 17). Mean age was 68 ± 6 years and 69% of the patients were men. The most common reason for eCABG was coronary perforation (70.6%). eCABG patients had larger target vessel diameter (3.36 ± 0.50 vs. 2.90 ± 0.52; p = 0.003), were more likely to have moderate/severe calcification (85.7% vs. 45.8%; p = 0.006), side branch at the proximal cap (91.7% vs. 55.4%; p = 0.025), and balloon undilatable lesions (50% vs. 7.4%; p = 0.001) and to have undergone retrograde crossing (64.7% vs. 30.8%, p = 0.006). eCABG cases had lower technical (35.3% vs. 86.7%; p < 0.001) and procedural (35.3% vs. 86.7%; p < 0.001) success and higher in-hospital mortality (35.3% vs. 0.4%; p < 0.001), coronary perforation (70.6% vs. 4.6%; p < 0.001), pericardiocentesis (47.1% vs. 0.8%; p < 0.001), and major bleeding (11.8% vs. 0.5%; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of eCABG after CTO PCI was 0.12% and associated with high in-hospital mortality (35%). Coronary perforation was the most common reason for eCABG.

BACKGROUND: Patients with previous coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) who require repeat revascularization frequently undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We sought to identify factors associated with the decision to intervene on the native vessel versus a bypass graft and investigate their outcomes in a large nationwide prospective registry. METHODS: We identified patients who underwent PCI with a history of prior CABG from the Netherlands Heart Registration between 2017 and 2021 and stratified them by isolated native vessel PCI versus PCI including at least one venous- or arterial graft. The primary endpoint of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) was a composite of all-cause death and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at one-year post PCI. The key secondary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and TVR at 30 days. RESULTS: Out of 154,146 patients who underwent PCI, 12,822 (8.3%) had a prior CABG. Isolated native vessel PCI was most frequently performed (75.2%), while an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) presentation was most strongly associated with graft interventions. The primary outcome of MACE at one-year post PCI occurred more frequently in interventions including grafts compared with native vessels alone (19.7% vs. 14.3%; adjOR 1.267; 95% CI 1.101-1.457); p < 0.001) driven by TVR. There was however no difference in mortality or the key secondary endpoint between the two groups. CONCLUSION: In this nationwide prospective registry, ACS presentation was strongly associated with bypass graft PCI. At one year after PCI, interventions including bypass grafts had a higher composite of MACE compared with isolated native vessel interventions.

BACKGROUND: Prior studies have reported decreased use of an invasive approach for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine whether prior TAVR affects the use of subsequent coronary revascularization and outcomes of AMI in a contemporary national data set. METHODS: Consecutive TAVR patients from 2016 to 2022 were identified from the U.S. Vizient Clinical Data Base who were hospitalized after the index TAVR hospitalization with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Patients with STEMI or NSTEMI with or without prior TAVR from the same time period were compared for the use of coronary angiography, revascularization, and in-hospital outcomes. Propensity score matching was used to account for imbalances in patient characteristics. RESULTS: Among 206,229 patients who underwent TAVR, the incidence of STEMI was 25 events per 100,000 person-years of follow-up, and that of NSTEMI was 229 events per 100,000 person-years. After propensity matching, the use of coronary revascularization was similar in the prior TAVR and no TAVR cohorts in both the STEMI (65.3% vs 63.9%; P = 0.81) and NSTEMI (41.4% vs 41.7%; P = 0.88) subgroups. Compared with patients without prior TAVR, in-hospital mortality was higher in the prior TAVR cohort in patients with STEMI (27.1% vs 16.7%; P = 0.03) and lower in those with NSTEMI (5.8% vs 8.2%; P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: In this large, national retrospective study, AMI events after TAVR were infrequent. There were no differences in the use of coronary revascularization for STEMI or NSTEMI in TAVR patients compared with the non-TAVR population. In-hospital mortality for STEMI is higher in TAVR patients compared with those without prior TAVR.

AIMS: Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) resulting from unprotected left main coronary artery (LMCA) occlusion and subtotal occlusion is a life-threatening condition. Although AMI management has improved in the past two decades, there is limited information on recent trends in patient characteristics, management, and outcomes for acute unprotected LMCA-related AMI. This study aims to assess such trends over a 12 year period. METHODS AND RESULTS: This retrospective multicentre study includes patients with unprotected LMCA occlusion/subtotal occlusion admitted to three tertiary hospitals between 2008 and 2020. The patients were divided into two groups based on the chronology of presentation: a 'past group' (January 2008 to December 2014) and a 'contemporary group' (January 2015 to December 2020). The study compares clinical characteristics, management approaches, and outcomes between the two groups. The study includes 128 patients, with 51 (40%) in the 'past group' and 77 (60%) in the 'contemporary group'. Baseline risk factors did not show statistically significant differences between the two groups, except for hypertension (49% vs. 74%; P = 0.005). Chest pain was more frequent in the 'past group' (98% vs. 89%; P = 0.014), and a trend towards more cardiac arrests was observed in the 'contemporary group' (18% vs. 31%; P = 0.087). Revascularization type did not differ significantly (P = 0.419), but manual thrombectomy was less frequently used (41% vs. 23%; P = 0.032) and stent implantation showed a trend towards higher rates (66% vs. 78%; P = 0.150) in the 'contemporary cohort'. There was a gradual shift from bare-metal to drug-eluting stents, with a significantly higher percentage of ticagrelor/prasugrel loading in the 'contemporary cohort' (5% vs. 79%; P < 0.001). The use of mechanical circulatory support (MCS), although not statistically significant, was higher among patients in the 'past group' (67% vs. 51%; P = 0.073). The type of MCS differed significantly between groups, with a decrease in intra-aortic balloon pump use (67% vs. 42%; P = 0.005) and an increase in veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (4% vs. 22%; P = 0.005) and Impella system (0% vs. 3%) over time. Survival analysis showed no significant differences (P = 0.599; log-rank test) in all-cause mortality between the different time groups, with the long-term survival rate being approximately 30%. CONCLUSIONS: In our real-world population, despite the progressive use of newer drugs and more advanced devices over time, patients with unprotected LMCA occlusion/subtotal occlusion remain a subpopulation with poor prognosis.

BACKGROUND: The risk of coronary artery disease is exaggerated in patients with autoimmune diseases (AID). A higher risk of complications has been reported during and after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in these patients. We aimed to analyze the in-hospital outcomes and trends of patients with AID, including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) undergoing PCI. METHOD: We identified all PCI procedures using the National In-patient Sample database from 2016 to 2020. Stratified them into cohorts with RA, SLE and IBD and compared them to cohorts without AID. The Chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression were used for analysis. A p-value <0.005 was considered statistically significant. RESULT: We identified 2,367,475 patients who underwent PCI. Of these, 1.6 %, 0.5 %, and 0.4 % had RA, IBD and SLE respectively. The odds of mortality were lower among patients with IBD (aOR: 0.56; CI 0.38-0.81, p = 0.002) but patients with RA had higher odds of having composite major complications [(MC) including cerebrovascular accident (CVA), cardiac arrest, acute heart failure (AHF), ventricular arrhythmia (VA), major bleeding, and acute kidney injury (AKI)] (aOR: 0.90; CI 0.83-0.98, p = 0.013). Our SLE cohort had higher rates of CVA (p = 0.017) and AKI (p = 0.002). Our cohort with IBD had lower rates of cardiac arrest but had longer hospital length of stay (4.9 days vs 3.9 days) and they incurred higher hospital charges compared to cohort without IBD. CONCLUSION: This study depicts the immediate adverse outcomes observed in patients with AID undergoing PCI. In contrast to those without AID, our cohorts with RA exhibited worse outcomes, as indicated by the higher odds of major complications. IBD is associated with lower risks of in-hospital adverse outcomes but with higher resource utilization.
