Impact of post-challenge hyperglycemia on clinical outcomes in Japanese patients with stable angina undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Post-challenge hyperglycemia (PH) is well-established as one of risk factors for coronary artery disease. However, it remains unclear whether PH affects clinical outcomes in patients with stable angina undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods

A total of 828 patients with stable angina undergoing PCI were retrospectively analyzed. Of these, 452 patients with previously diagnosed diabetes mellitus (DM) or fasting plasma glucose (PG) ?126 mg/dl and HbA1c ?6.5% were defined as known DM. The remaining 376 patients were divided into the two groups according to 2-h PG: PH (2-h PG ?140 mg/dl, n=236) and normal glucose tolerance (NGT, 2-h PG <140 mg/dl, n=140). We assessed the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, and clinically-driven revascularization.

Results

During the median follow-up of 4.3 years, the MACE rate was significantly higher in the DM and PH groups than the NGT group (39.3% vs. 20.7%, P <0.001; 31.4% vs. 20.7%, P=0.044, respectively). Compared with the NGT group, the cumulative incidence of revascularization was significantly higher in the DM group (35.1% vs. 18.5%, P <0.001) and tended to be higher in the PH group (27.1% vs. 18.5%, P=0.067). In the multivariate analysis, known DM (Hazard ratio [HR]: 2.16, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.49-3.27, P < 0.001), PH (HR: 1.62, 95% CI: 1.07-2.53, P = 0.023), LDL-C >100 mg/dl (HR: 1.62, 95% CI: 1.26 to 2.10, P < 0.001), and previous stroke (HR: 1.47, 95% CI: 1.03-2.04, P = 0.034) were predictors of MACE.

Conclusion

PH is associated with future cardiovascular events in patients with stable angina undergoing PCI.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is frequently performed to reduce the symptoms of stable angina. Whether PCI relieves angina more than a placebo procedure in patients who are not receiving antianginal medication remains unknown.MethodsWe conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of PCI in patients with stable angina. Patients stopped all antianginal medications and underwent a 2-week symptom assessment phase before randomization. Patients were then randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to undergo PCI or a placebo procedure and were followed for 12 weeks. The primary end point was the angina symptom score, which was calculated daily on the basis of the number of angina episodes that occurred on a given day, the number of antianginal medications prescribed on that day, and clinical events, including the occurrence of unblinding owing to unacceptable angina or acute coronary syndrome or death. Scores range from 0 to 79, with higher scores indicating worse health status with respect to angina.ResultsA total of 301 patients underwent randomization: 151 to the PCI group and 150 to the placebo group. The mean (±SD) age was 64±9 years, and 79% were men. Ischemia was present in one cardiac territory in 242 patients (80%), in two territories in 52 patients (17%), and in three territories in 7 patients (2%). In the target vessels, the median fractional flow reserve was 0.63 (interquartile range, 0.49 to 0.75), and the median instantaneous wave-free ratio was 0.78 (interquartile range, 0.55 to 0.87). At the 12-week follow-up, the mean angina symptom score was 2.9 in the PCI group and 5.6 in the placebo group (odds ratio, 2.21; 95% confidence interval, 1.41 to 3.47; P<0.001). One patient in the placebo group had unacceptable angina leading to unblinding. Acute coronary syndromes occurred in 4 patients in the PCI group and in 6 patients in the placebo group.ConclusionsAmong patients with stable angina who were receiving little or no antianginal medication and had objective evidence of ischemia, PCI resulted in a lower angina symptom score than a placebo procedure, indicating a better health status with respect to angina.

Project description:Background Effective transitions from the procedural to outpatient setting are essential to ensure high-quality cardiovascular care across health care systems, particularly among patients undergoing invasive cardiac procedures. We evaluated the association of postprocedural follow-up visits and antiplatelet prescriptions with clinical outcomes among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for stable angina at community or Veterans Affairs (VA) hospitals. Methods and Results Patients who actively received care within the VA Healthcare System and underwent percutaneous coronary intervention for stable angina at a community or VA hospital between October 1, 2015, and September 30, 2019, were identified. We compared mortality for patients receiving community or VA care, and among subgroups of community-treated patients by the presence of a postprocedural follow-up visit within 30 days or prescription for antiplatelet (P2Y12) medication within 120 days of the procedure. Among 12 837 patients who survived the first 30 days, 5133 were treated at community hospitals, and 7704 were treated in the VA. Prescriptions for antiplatelet therapy were less common for those treated in the community (85%) compared with the VA at 1 year (95%; hazard ratio [HR], 0.46; 95% CI, 0.44-47). Compared with VA-treated patients, the hazards for death were similar for patients treated in the community with a follow-up visit (HR, 1.17; 95% CI, 0.97-1.40) or with a fill for an antiplatelet therapy (HR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.90-1.30). However, patients treated in the community without a follow-up visit had an 86% (HR, 1.86; 95% CI, 1.40-2.48) increased hazard of death, and those without antiplatelet prescription fill had a 144% increased hazard of death (HR, 2.44; 95% CI, 1.85-3.21) compared with all VA-treated patients. Conclusions Patients treated at community facilities have a decreased chance of receiving antiplatelet prescriptions after percutaneous coronary intervention with a concordant increased hazard of mortality, emphasizing the importance of transitions of care across health care systems when assessing cardiovascular quality.

Project description:The anti-anginal efficacy of ivabradine is well established. We describe a post hoc analysis in the ADDITIONS database to investigate effectiveness and tolerability of ivabradine in combination with beta-blocker in patients with angina who have had a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).ADDITIONS was a non-interventional, multicenter prospective study including 2,330 patients with stable angina. In addition to beta-blocker, patients were treated with ivabradine in approved dosages for 4 months. We divided the population according to whether they had previously had a PCI or not, and explored the effect of ivabradine on heart rate, number of weekly angina attacks, frequency of nitrate consumption, as well as quality of life (QoL) and tolerability.Data were available for 2,319 patients, of whom 51.4% had previously had a PCI. There was no difference in the effect of ivabradine on mean heart rate between patients with a previous PCI [64.4 ± 7.6 beats per minute (bpm)] than those without (66.8 ± 8.5 bpm) at 4 months (both P < 0.0001). Similarly, the number of angina attacks decreased from 1.9 ± 2.4 to 0.5 ± 1.5 per week in patients with a previous PCI and 1.5 ± 2.0 to 0.3 ± 1.0 per week in patients without a previous PCI (both P < 0.0001). The frequency of nitrate consumption fell from 2.7 ± 3.7 to 1.0 ± 1.9 per week and 1.8 ± 2.8 to 0.6 ± 1.5 per week (both P < 0.0001) in patients with and without a previous PCI, respectively. There was no difference in the improvements in Canadian Cardiovascular Society class of angina, QoL, and physicians' assessment of effectiveness and tolerability between patients with a previous PCI and those without.Ivabradine is an effective and well-tolerated anti-anginal treatment in patients with stable angina after PCI. Ivabradine reduced the frequency of weekly angina attacks and nitrate consumption, led to an improvement in Canadian Cardiovascular Society class and a substantial improvement in the QoL of stable angina patients.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) use is low in the setting of stable symptomatic angina in individuals with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) despite high cardiovascular risk in this population, and PCI is frequently deferred out of concern for precipitating dialysis therapy. Whether this is appropriate is uncertain, and patient-centered data comparing the relative risks and benefits of continued medical therapy versus PCI in patients with advanced CKD and stable angina are scarce.Study designDecision analysis.Setting & populationHypothetical cohort of individuals with advanced CKD (stages 4-5 with estimated glomerular filtration rates ≤ 20mL/min/1.73m2) and stable angina.Model, perspective, & timelineA Markov model with a Monte Carlo simulation through 12 cycles, that is, 3 years of 3-month intervals, with 10,000 microsimulations predicted mean quality-adjusted life-years.InterventionPCI first, medical management, or dialysis (hemodialysis [HD]) followed by PCI.OutcomesOutcomes modeled were progression to HD therapy (for those not assigned to the preemptive HD strategy), catheter infection, and death.ResultsOur analysis showed mean quality-adjusted life-years of 1.103 ± 0.69 for PCI first, 1.088±0.70 for medical management, and 0.670±0.58 for HD followed by PCI. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis found PCI as the preferred strategy > 60% of the time.LimitationsValues for probabilities and utilities were estimated and/or derived from multiple sources that were not uniform in their populations in terms of age, comorbid condition burden, and degree of kidney failure, and several simplifying assumptions were made.ConclusionsOur analysis demonstrates that quality-adjusted life expectancy is similar for the PCI first and medical management strategies in patients with advanced CKD with stable angina and that the decision depends on patient preferences other than those incorporated in our model. Both strategies are superior to preemptive dialysis.

Project description:BackgroundTwenty percent to 40% of patients are affected by angina after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which is associated with anxiety, depression, impaired physical function, and reduced quality of life. Understanding patient and procedural factors associated with post-PCI angina may inform alternative approaches to treatment.MethodsTwo hundred thirty patients undergoing PCI completed the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ-7) and European quality of life-5 dimension-5 level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaires at baseline and 3 months post-PCI. Patients received blinded intracoronary physiology assessments before and after stenting. A post hoc analysis was performed to compare clinical and procedural characteristics among patients with and without post-PCI angina (defined by follow-up SAQ-angina frequency score <100).ResultsEighty-eight of 230 patients (38.3%) reported angina 3 months post-PCI and had a higher incidence of active smoking, atrial fibrillation, and history of previous myocardial infarction or PCI. Compared with patients with no angina at follow-up, they had lower baseline SAQ summary scores (69.48±24.12 versus 50.20±22.59, P<0.001) and EQ-5D-5L health index scores (0.84±0.15 versus 0.69±0.22, P<0.001). Pre-PCI fractional flow reserve (FFR) was lower among patients who had no post-PCI angina (0.56±0.15 versus 0.62±0.13, P=0.003). Percentage change in FFR after PCI had a moderate correlation with angina frequency score at follow-up (r=0.36, P<0.0001). Patients with post-PCI angina had less improvement in FFR (43.1±33.5% versus 67.0±50.7%, P<0.001). There were no between-group differences in post-PCI FFR, coronary flow reserve, or corrected index of microcirculatory resistance. Patients with post-PCI angina had lower SAQ-summary scores (64.01±22 versus 95.16±8.72, P≤0.001) and EQ-5D-5L index scores (0.69±0.26 versus 0.91±0.17, P≤0.001) at follow-up.ConclusionsLarger improvements in FFR following PCI were associated with less angina and better quality of life at follow-up. In patients with stable symptoms, intracoronary physiology assessment can inform expectations of angina relief and quality of life improvement after stenting and thereby help to determine the appropriateness of PCI.RegistrationURL: https://www.Clinicaltrialsgov; Unique identifier: NCT03259815.
