Project description:Study objectivesSleep apnea is often newly diagnosed in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We assessed longitudinal changes in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and sleep apnea phenotype after STEMI and determined its association with changes in the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).MethodsA total of 101 eligible patients with STEMI underwent consecutive sleep studies and echocardiographic studies within 5 days of admission and at 6-month follow-up. Sleep apnea (AHI ≥ 15 events/h) was further divided into obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) or central sleep apnea (CSA).ResultsBoth AHI (mean difference -6.4 events/h, 95% confidence interval [CI] -9.6 to 3.3, P < .001) and LVEF (mean difference 2.6%, 95% CI 1.3 to 4.0, P < .001) improved from baseline to 6 months. The improvement in AHI was associated with an increase in LVEF (β = -.47, 95% CI -.86 to -.07, P = .023) and a decrease in left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) (β = .25, 95% CI .07 to .43, P = .007). Of the patients with OSA at baseline (46%), resolution of OSA was seen in 48% at 6 months. Of those with CSA at baseline (12%), conversion to OSA was seen in 83%. In contrast, among those with no sleep apnea (42%) at baseline, the diagnosis remained the same in 93% at 6 months.ConclusionsConcurrent changes in AHI, LVEF, and LVESV were seen after STEMI. Sleep studies performed on admission are reliable in excluding sleep apnea. However, patients with OSA or CSA on admission warrant re-evaluation due to evolution of the sleep apnea phenotype.

Project description:BackgroundAtrioventricular plane displacement (AVPD) reflects longitudinal left ventricular (LV) systolic function, and wall thickening (WT) regional radial LV function. The temporal evolution of these measures after STEMI with CMR has not been evaluated. We aimed to investigate how AVPD and WT are affected globally and regionally from the sub-acute to the chronic phase after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).MethodsHealthy volunteers without cardiovascular disease and medication (controls, n = 20) and patients from the CHILL-MI study ( NCT01379261 ) prospectively underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) 2-6 days and 6 months after STEMI (n = 77). CHILL-MI randomized STEMI-patients to cooling therapy initiated before reperfusion or standard of care. AVPD was measured at six points in three long axis cine images and wall thickening in short axis cine images. Infarction was quantified using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and used to define infarct and remote segments.ResultsThere were no difference in AVPD either at acute or chronic phase (p = 0.90 and p = 0.40) or WT (p = 0.85 and p = 0.99) between patients randomized to cooling therapy and standard of care. Therefore, the results are presented for the pooled cohort. Global AVPD was decreased in both the sub-acute (12 ± 2 mm, p < 0.001) and the chronic phase (13 ± 2 mm, p < 0.001) compared to controls (15 ± 2 mm) with a partial recovery of AVPD (p < 0.001) in the chronic phase. Patients with left anterior descending (LAD) and right coronary artery (RCA) infarcts had decreased AVPD in the chronic phase in both infarcted and remote segments. Mean WT was decreased in patients with LAD infarction both in the sub-acute and the chronic phase in both infarcted and remote segments. The decrease in WT in patients with RCA and left circumflex (LCx) infarcts was more affected in the infarcted segments, especially in the chronic phase.ConclusionAVPD was a global rather than regional marker of cardiac function in this STEMI study and this may explain the prognostic importance of local measurements of mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE). The decrease in WT in remote myocardium even in the chronic phase needs to be taken into consideration when combining functional measurements with infarct quantification for diagnosis of post-ischemic stunning and hibernation.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:We hypothesised that, compared with culprit-only primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), additional preventive PCI in selected patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel disease would not be associated with iatrogenic myocardial infarction, and would be associated with reductions in left ventricular (LV) volumes in the longer term. METHODS:In the preventive angioplasty in myocardial infarction trial (PRAMI; ISRCTN73028481), cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was prespecified in two centres and performed (median, IQR) 3 (1, 5) and 209 (189, 957) days after primary PCI. RESULTS:From 219 enrolled patients in two sites, 84% underwent CMR. 42 (50%) were randomised to culprit-artery-only PCI and 42 (50%) were randomised to preventive PCI. Follow-up CMR scans were available in 72 (86%) patients. There were two (4.8%) cases of procedure-related myocardial infarction in the preventive PCI group. The culprit-artery-only group had a higher proportion of anterior myocardial infarctions (MIs) (55% vs 24%). Infarct sizes (% LV mass) at baseline and follow-up were similar. At follow-up, there was no difference in LV ejection fraction (%, median (IQR), (culprit-artery-only PCI vs preventive PCI) 51.7 (42.9, 60.2) vs 54.4 (49.3, 62.8), p=0.23), LV end-diastolic volume (mL/m2, 69.3 (59.4, 79.9) vs 66.1 (54.7, 73.7), p=0.48) and LV end-systolic volume (mL/m2, 31.8 (24.4, 43.0) vs 30.7 (23.0, 36.3), p=0.20). Non-culprit angiographic lesions had low-risk Syntax scores and 47% had non-complex characteristics. CONCLUSIONS:Compared with culprit-only PCI, non-infarct-artery MI in the preventive PCI strategy was uncommon and LV volumes and ejection fraction were similar.

Project description:BackgroundThe incidence of left ventricular thrombus (LVT) is 4% to 15% in patients with anterior acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (ant-AMI) in the era of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). And patients with LVT have higher in-hospital mortality.HypothesisThere is a relationship between LVT formation and 1-year major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients with ant-AMI treated by PPCI.MethodsOur study population included 1488 consecutive patients with ant-AMI. The primary endpoint was the incidence of MACCE within 1 year after AMI. The secondary endpoint was the thrombosis disappearance.ResultsA total of 106 (7.1%) patients were diagnosed with LVT and 1382 (92.9%) patients without LVT. Patients with LVT had a higher incidence of MACCE than in patients without LVT (21.7%vs10.3%; P < 0.001). Univariate analysis showed LVT was associated with an increase in MACCE risk (odds ratio [OR] = 2.40; 95% confidence interval [CI] [1.37-4.21]; P < 0.001). When examining MACCE components individually, LVT was only associated with the incidence of congestive heart failure (OR = 2.41; 95% CI [1.29-4.58]; P = 0.001). After adjustment for principal confounders, LVT remained an independent risk factor for MACCE (HR = 2.28; 95% CI [1.12-6.38]; P = 0.020). Other independent predictors include 24-hour LVEF, creatine kinase peak value, and age. Further analysis found patients with LVT in international normalized ratio (INR) ≥ 2 group had lower MACCE risk and higher thrombus disappearance than in INR < 2 group (13.5%vs29.6%; P = 0.044; 90.4%vs74.1%; P = 0.029).ConclusionFor patients with ant-AMI treated by PPCI, LVT is an independent predictor of 1-year MACCE events. Treatment with vitamin K antagonist in the therapeutic range (INR ≥ 2) has the potential to reduce MACCE risk and promote disappearance of thrombus.

Project description:BackgroundData on the clinical impact of beta-blockers (BBs) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) who had non-reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after percutaneous coronary intervention are limited.MethodsFrom 2016 to 2020, we evaluated a cohort of 12,101 myocardial infarction patients with a non-reduced LVEF (≥40%) from the Korean Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry V. Patients were divided into two groups based on their BB (carvedilol, bisoprolol, or nebivolol) treatment at discharge: with beta-blocker treatment (BB, n = 9,468) and without beta-blocker treatment (non-BB, n = 2,633). The primary endpoint after discharge was the occurrence of patient-oriented composite endpoints (POCEs), including all-cause mortality, any MI, or any revascularization at 1-year follow-up.ResultsThe median follow-up period was 353 days (interquartile range, 198-378 days). At 1-year follow-up, no significant differences were observed in the primary endpoint between the BB group and the non-BB group. Before propensity score (PS) matching, the POCE incidence was 3.1% in the BB group vs. 3.4% in the non-BB group [hazard ratio (HR) 0.86, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.68-1.09, p = 0.225]. After PS matching, the POCE incidence remained similar between the two groups (3.7% vs. 3.4%, HR 1.01, 95% CI 0.76-1.35, p = 0.931). Individual outcomes, including all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, and revascularization, also showed no significant differences between the two groups. Independent predictors of 1-year POCEs after discharge were age, chronic kidney disease, reduced LVEF, and multivessel disease.ConclusionBB treatment in patients with acute MI and non-reduced LVEF was not associated with a significant reduction in cardiovascular outcomes at 1-year follow-up.

Project description:BackgroundApproximately one third of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which is associated with impaired outcome. However, the causal association between LVH and outcome in STEMI is unknown. We evaluated the association between LVH and: myocardial infarct size, area at risk, myocardial salvage, microvascular obstruction, left ventricular (LV) function (all determined by cardiac magnetic resonance [CMR]), and all-cause mortality and readmission for heart failure in STEMI patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods and resultsIn this substudy of the DANAMI-3 trial, 764 patients underwent CMR. LVH was defined by CMR and considered present if LV mass exceeded 77 (men) and 67 g/m2 (women). One hundred seventy-eight patients (24%) had LVH. LVH was associated with a larger final infarct size (15% [interquartile range {IQR}, 10-21] vs 9% [IQR, 3-17]; P<0.001) and smaller final myocardial salvage index (0.6 [IQR, 0.5-0.7] vs 0.7 [IQR, 0.5-0.9]; P<0.001). The LVH group had a higher incidence of microvascular obstruction (66% vs 45%; P<0.001) and lower final LV ejection fraction (LVEF; 53% [IQR, 47-60] vs 61% [IQR, 55-65]; P<0.001). In a Cox regression analysis, LVH was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality and readmission for heart failure (hazard ratio 2.59 [95% CI, 1.38-4.90], P=0.003). The results remained statistically significant in multivariable models.ConclusionsLVH is independently associated with larger infarct size, less myocardial salvage, higher incidence of microvascular obstruction, lower LVEF, and a higher risk of all-cause mortality and incidence of heart failure in STEMI patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention.Clinical trial registrationURL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:BackgroundLittle is known about the predictors of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) -an important predictor of mortality- after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in low- and middle-income countries.MethodsIn a prospective cohort study at Imam Ali hospital, Kermanshah, Iran, we enrolled consecutive ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients treated with primary PCI (2016-2018) and followed them up to one year. LVEF levels were measured by echocardiography, at baseline and one-year follow-up. Determinants of preserved/improved LVEF were assessed using multi-variable logistic regression models.ResultsOf 803 patients (mean age 58.53±11.7 years, 20.5% women), baseline LVEF levels of ≤35% were reported in 44%, 35- 50% in 40%, and ≥50% in 16% of patients. The mean ± SD of LVEF increased from 38.13%±9.2% at baseline to 41.49%±9.5% at follow-up. LVEF was preserved/improved in 629 (78.3%) patients. Adjusted ORs (95% CIs) for predictors of preserved/improved LVEF showed positive associations with creatinine clearance, 1.01 (1.00-1.02) and adherence to clopidogrel, 2.01 (1.33-3.02); and inverse associations with history of myocardial infarction (MI), 0.44 (0.25-0.78); creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), 0.997 (0.996- 0.999); door-balloon time (3rd vs. 1st tertile), 0.62 (0.39-0.98); number of diseased vessels (2 and 3 vs. 1: 0.63 (0.41-0.99) and 0.58 (0.36-0.93), respectively); and baseline LVEF (35-50% and ≥50% vs. ≤35%: 0.45 (0.28-0.71) and 0.19 (0.11-0.34), respectively).ConclusionAdherence to clopidogrel, short door-balloon time, high creatinine clearance, and lower baseline LVEF were associated with preserved/improved LVEF, while history of MI, high CK-MB, and multi-vessel disease were predictors of reduced LVEF. Long-term drug adherence should be considered for LVEF improvement in low- and middle-income countries.

Project description:ObjectiveLeft ventricular thrombosis (LVT) is a common complication of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This study attempted to synthesize the available evidence to understand the incidence and risk factors of LVT in acute STEMI patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).MethodsWe searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for studies published from January 2001 to January 2022. The random-effects and fixed-effects model meta-analysis estimated pooled incidence, mean difference (MD), odds ratio (OR), and 95% confidence interval (CI). The Review Manager 5.4 software was used for meta-analysis performance.ResultsThe results of meta-analysis showed that the incidence of LVT in acute STEMI treated by primary PCI was 4% (95% CI [0.03, 0.05]), and the overall pooled incidence in patients with anterior STEMI was 10.0% (95% CI [0.07, 0.12]). Anterior STEMI (OR = 11.93, 95% CI [6.25, 22.78], p = 0.0003), left anterior descending-related infarct (OR = 6.85, 95% CI [3.70, 12.66], p < 0.00001), left ventricular wall motion abnormalities (OR = 7.53, 95% CI [3.18, 17.82], p < 0.00001), and lower post-PCI LVEF (MD = 13.78, 95% CI [12.15, 15.41], p < 0.00001) were risk factors for post-PCI LVT.ConclusionThe incidence of LVT after acute STEMI in the PCI era remains high. This study provides a preliminary overview of STEMI patients at risk for post-PCI LVT and will help the design of prospective randomized controlled trials for the management and prevention of LVT.

Project description:Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is sometimes considered as an alternative therapeutic strategy to surgical revascularization in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, the types or conditions of patients that receive the clinical benefit of left ventricular reverse remodelling (LVRR) remain unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the determinants of LVRR following PCI in CAD patients with reduced LVEF. From 4394 consecutive patients who underwent PCI, a total of 286 patients with reduced LV systolic function (LVEF < 50% at initial left ventriculography) were included in the analysis. LVRR was defined as LV end-systolic volume reduction ≥ 15% and improvement of LVEF ≥ 10% at 6 months follow-up left ventriculography. Patients were divided into LVRR (n = 63) and non-LVRR (n = 223) groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that unprotected left main coronary artery (LMCA) intervention was significantly associated with LVRR (P = 0.007, odds ratios [OR] 4.70, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.54-14.38), while prior PCI (P = 0.001, OR 0.35, 95% CI 0.19-0.66), presence of in-stent restenosis (P = 0.016, OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.12-0.81), and presence of de-novo stenosis (P = 0.038, OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.14-0.95) were negatively associated with LVRR. These data suggest the potential prognostic benefit of unprotected LMCA intervention for LVRR and importance of angiographic follow-up in patients with CAD and LV systolic dysfunction.

Project description:AimsWe sought to better understand the role of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and moderate or severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction.Methods and resultsUsing data from the Duke Databank for Cardiovascular Disease, we analysed patients who underwent coronary angiography at Duke University Medical Center (1995-2012) that had stable CAD amenable to PCI and left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35%. Patients with acute coronary syndrome or Canadian Cardiovascular Society class III or IV angina were excluded. We used propensity-matched Cox proportional hazards to evaluate the association of PCI with mortality and hospitalizations. Of 901 patients, 259 were treated with PCI and 642 with medical therapy. PCI propensity scores created from 24 variables were used to assemble a matched cohort of 444 patients (222 pairs) receiving PCI or medical therapy alone. Over a median follow-up of 7 years, 128 (58%) PCI and 125 (56%) medical therapy alone patients died [hazard ratio 0.87 (95% confidence interval 0.68, 1.10)]; there was also no difference in the rate of a composite endpoint of all-cause mortality or cardiovascular hospitalization [hazard ratio 1.18 (95% confidence interval 0.96, 1.44)] between the two groups.ConclusionsIn this well-profiled, propensity-matched cohort of patients with stable CAD amenable to PCI and moderate or severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction, the addition of PCI to medical therapy did not improve long-term mortality, or the composite of mortality or cardiovascular hospitalization. The impact of PCI on other outcomes in these high-risk patients requires further study.
