Management and outcome trends in type 2 myocardial infarction: an investigation from the SWEDEHEART registry.

ABSTRACT: Despite poor prognosis, patients with type 2 myocardial infarction (MI) tend to be underdiagnosed and undertreated compared to those with type 1 MI. Whether this discrepancy has improved over time is uncertain. We conducted a registry-based cohort study investigating type 2 MI patients managed at Swedish coronary care units (n = 14,833) during 2010-2022. Multivariable-adjusted changes (first three vs last three calendar years of the observation period) were assessed regarding diagnostic examinations (echocardiography, coronary assessment), provision of cardioprotective medications (betablockers, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system inhibitors, statins) and 1-year all-cause mortality. Compared to type 1 MI patients (n = 184,329), those with type 2 MI less often had diagnostic examinations and cardioprotective medications. Increases in the use of echocardiography (OR 1.08 [95% confidence interval 1.06-1.09]) and coronary assessment (OR 1.06 [95% confidence interval 1.04-1.08]) were smaller compared to type 1 MI (p_interaction < 0.001). The provision of medications did not increase in type 2 MI. All-cause mortality rate in type 2 MI was 25.4% without temporal change (OR 1.03 [95% confidence interval 0.98-1.07]). Taken together, the provision of medications and all-cause mortality did ot improve in type 2 MI despite modest increases in diagnostic procedures. This emphasizes the need of defining optimal care pathways in these patients.

Project description:BackgroundSodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been shown to reduce rates of heart failure hospitalisations and cardiovascular death in patients with type 2 diabetes and prior cardiovascular disease. We hypothesised that SGLT2 inhibitors could provide cardiovascular benefits in the post-myocardial infarction setting. We aimed to investigate cardiovascular outcomes of SGLT2 inhibitor therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus after myocardial infarction in a Swedish nationwide registry.MethodsWe included all patients with type 2 diabetes surviving a type 1 acute myocardial infarction from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2021. Patients were included if they were discharged with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 in the nationwide Swedish Web-system for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-based care in Heart disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies (SWEDEHEART) registry. We identified all patients discharged with or without an SGLT2 inhibitor prescription 120 days before or within three days after discharge from the cardiac care unit. The primary outcome measure was a composite of death and first hospitalisation for heart failure after one year analysed using an adjusted Cox regression.FindingsA total of 11,271 patients were included. Of these, 2498 (22.2%) received SGLT2 inhibitor treatment. Patients who were prescribed SGLT2 inhibitors were younger, more often presented with a STEMI and had worse left ventricular ejection fraction at index hospitalisation. SGLT2 inhibitor use was associated with lower rates of the composite outcome (hazard ratio (HR) of 0.70 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.59-0.82).InterpretationTreatment with SGLT2 inhibitors after myocardial infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes was associated with a lower rate of cardiovascular events.FundingThis work was supported by Hjärt-Lungfonden, Vetenskapsrådet, Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, ALF, the Bundy Academy, and Skåne University Hospital funds.

Project description:Background and aimsThe long-term outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) vs. coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and multivessel disease remain debated.MethodsThe Swedish Web-system for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-based care in Heart disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies registry was used to analyse 57 097 revascularized patients with NSTEMI with multivessel disease in Sweden from January 2005 to June 2022. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality, encompassing both in-hospital and long-term mortality; the secondary endpoints included myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, new revascularization, and heart failure. Multilevel logistic regression with follow-up time as a log-transformed offset variable and double-robust adjustment with the instrumental variable method were applied to control for known and unknown confounders.ResultsPercutaneous coronary intervention was the primary therapy in 42 190 (73.9%) patients, while 14 907 (26.1%) received CABG. Percutaneous coronary intervention patients were generally older with more prior cardiovascular events, whereas CABG patients had higher incidences of diabetes, hypertension, left main and three-vessel disease, and reduced ejection fraction. Over a median follow-up of 7.1 years, PCI was associated with higher risks of death [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.67; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.54-1.81] and MI (aOR 1.51; 95% CI 1.41-1.62) but there was no significant difference in stroke. Repeat revascularization was three times more likely to PCI (aOR 3.01; 95% CI 2.57-3.51), while heart failure risk was 15% higher (aOR 1.15; 95% CI 1.07-1.25). Coronary artery bypass grafting provided longer survival within 15 years, especially in patients under 70 years of age, with left main disease or left ventricular dysfunction, though this benefit diminished over shorter time horizons.ConclusionsCoronary artery bypass grafting is associated with lower risks of mortality, MI, repeat revascularization, and heart failure in patients with NSTEMI, particularly in high-risk subgroups. However, its survival benefit lessens with shorter life expectancy.

Project description:BackgroundThis study assessed sex differences in treatments, all-cause mortality, relative survival, and excess mortality following acute myocardial infarction.Methods and resultsA population-based cohort of all hospitals providing acute myocardial infarction care in Sweden (SWEDEHEART [Swedish Web System for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-Based Care in Heart Disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies]) from 2003 to 2013 was included in the analysis. Excess mortality rate ratios (EMRRs), adjusted for clinical characteristics and guideline-indicated treatments after matching by age, sex, and year to background mortality data, were estimated. Although there were no sex differences in all-cause mortality adjusted for age, year of hospitalization, and comorbidities for ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-STEMI at 1 year (mortality rate ratio: 1.01 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.96-1.05] and 0.97 [95% CI, 0.95-0.99], respectively) and 5 years (mortality rate ratio: 1.03 [95% CI, 0.99-1.07] and 0.97 [95% CI, 0.95-0.99], respectively), excess mortality was higher among women compared with men for STEMI and non-STEMI at 1 year (EMRR: 1.89 [95% CI, 1.66-2.16] and 1.20 [95% CI, 1.16-1.24], respectively) and 5 years (EMRR: 1.60 [95% CI, 1.48-1.72] and 1.26 [95% CI, 1.21-1.32], respectively). After further adjustment for the use of guideline-indicated treatments, excess mortality among women with non-STEMI was not significant at 1 year (EMRR: 1.01 [95% CI, 0.97-1.04]) and slightly higher at 5 years (EMRR: 1.07 [95% CI, 1.02-1.12]). For STEMI, adjustment for treatments attenuated the excess mortality for women at 1 year (EMRR: 1.43 [95% CI, 1.26-1.62]) and 5 years (EMRR: 1.31 [95% CI, 1.19-1.43]).ConclusionsWomen with acute myocardial infarction did not have statistically different all-cause mortality, but had higher excess mortality compared with men that was attenuated after adjustment for the use of guideline-indicated treatments. This suggests that improved adherence to guideline recommendations for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction may reduce premature cardiovascular death among women.Clinical trial registrationURL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:Background The randomized DOREMI (Dobutamine Compared to Milrinone) clinical trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of milrinone and dobutamine in patients with cardiogenic shock. Whether the results remain consistent when stratified by acute myocardial infarction remains unknown. In this substudy, we sought to evaluate differences in clinical management and outcomes of acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock (AMICS) versus non-AMICS. Methods and Results Patients in cardiogenic shock (n=192) were randomized 1:1 to dobutamine or milrinone. The primary composite end point in this subgroup analysis was all-cause in-hospital mortality, cardiac arrest, non-fatal myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, the need for mechanical circulatory support, or initiation of renal replacement therapy (RRT) at 30-days. Outcomes were evaluated in patients with (n=65) and without (n=127) AMICS. The primary composite end point was significantly higher in AMICS versus non-AMICS (hazard ratio [HR], 2.21; 95% CI, 1.47-3.30; P=0.0001). The primary end point was driven by increased rates of all-cause mortality, mechanical circulatory support, and RRT. No differences in other secondary outcomes including cardiac arrest or cerebrovascular accident were observed. AMICS remained associated with the primary composite outcome, 30-day mortality, and RRT after adjustment for age, sex, procedural contrast use, multivessel disease, and inotrope type. Conclusions AMI was associated with increased rates of adverse clinical outcomes in cardiogenic shock along with increased rates of mortality and initiation of mechanical circulatory support and RRT. Contrast administration during revascularization likely contributes to increased rates of RRT. Heterogeneity of outcomes in AMICS versus non-AMICS highlights the need to study interventions in specific subgroups of cardiogenic shock.
