Increased risk of cardiovascular mortality by strict glycemic control (pre-procedural HbA1c?

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:In the secondary prevention of cardiovascular (CV) disease in patients with diabetes, an optimal level of HbA1c, the most widely-used glycemic control indicator, for favorable clinical consequences still remains to be established. This study assessed the association between preprocedural HbA1c level and CV mortality in Japanese diabetic patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS:This is a retrospective observational study using a single-center prospective PCI database involving consecutive 4542 patients who underwent PCI between 2000 and 2016. Patients with any antidiabetic medication including insulin at PCI were included in the analysis (n?=?1328). We divided the patients into 5 and 2 groups according to HbA1c level; HbA1c:??and???7.0%, respectively. The primary outcome was CV mortality including sudden death. The median follow-up duration was 6.2 years. RESULTS:In the follow-up period, CV and sudden death occurred in 81 and 23 patients, respectively. While unadjusted Kaplan-Meier analysis showed no difference in cumulative CV mortality rate between patients binarized by preprocedural HbA1c 7.0%, analysis of the 5 groups of HbA1c showed significantly higher cumulative CV death in patients with HbA1c?

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.

Project description:BackgroundTo date, few reports have evaluated the long-term outcome of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) and the factors influencing the long-term outcome of this procedure are uncertain.MethodsA total of 91 patients underwent PKP for thoracolumbar OVCFs from June 2012 to December 2012. Pain Visual Analogue Scores (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were recorded preoperatively and after 10-year follow-up. Factors that may affect surgical outcome, such as gender, age, height, weight, hypertension, diabetes, cause of injury, fracture segment, length of hospitalization, history of previous spinal surgery, preoperative bone mineral density (BMD), preoperative VAS and ODI scores, length of surgery, bone cement dosage, postoperative standardized anti-osteoporosis treatment, and other new vertebral fractures, were analyzed by multiple linear regression with VAS and ODI scores at the last follow-up. The correlation factors affecting the efficacy were analyzed.ResultsThe preoperative and final follow-up pain VAS was 7.9 ± 1.1 and 2.2 ± 1.1. ODI scores were 30.4 ± 4.2 and 10.7 ± 2.6. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Most of the patients were females aged 65-75 years who suffered low-energy injuries, with most of the fracture segments in the thoracolumbar region (T11-L2). At the final follow-up visit, 12 cases (13.19%) developed other new vertebral fractures, and 33 cases (36.26%) continued to adhere to anti-osteoporosis treatment after discharge. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that there was a statistical difference between gender and VAS score at the last follow-up (P < 0.05), and between age, cause of injury and postoperative standardized anti-osteoporosis treatment and ODI at the last follow-up (P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the other factors and the final follow-up VAS and ODI scores (P > 0.05).ConclusionThe long-term outcome after PKP is satisfactory. Age, gender, cause of injury, and standardized postoperative anti-osteoporosis treatment may be factors affecting the long-term outcome.

Project description:BackgroundSigns and symptoms of the X-linked disorder, Fabry disease (FD), can occur early during childhood with heterogeneous clinical manifestations including potential cardiac and renal dysfunction. Several studies support the efficacy of the enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) agalsidase alfa, in adults with FD, though published data on the long-term safety and efficacy of agalsidase alfa in children are limited. As early treatment with ERT has the potential to reduce complications arising from disease progression, children in particular could benefit. The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of long-term agalsidase alfa ERT in children with FD.MethodsTKT029 was a 6.5-year open-label, multicenter, extension study of children who completed TKT023 (26-week, open-label, every-other-week, intravenous 0.2 mg/kg agalsidase alfa). TKT029 was divided into two phases (before and after an agalsidase alfa manufacturing process change); only patients who participated in both phases were included in the analysis. Primary endpoints included safety, tolerability, and heart rate variability (HRV). Additional efficacy parameters included left ventricular mass index (LVMI), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and plasma/urine globotriaosylceramide (Gb3).ResultsEleven patients participated (phase 1 baseline median [range] age: 10.8 [8.6-17.3] years; 10 [90.9%] males). During TKT029 (6.5 years), all patients experienced ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (AE); eight patients had ≥1 possibly/probably drug-related AE. Six patients experienced infusion-related AEs, but none discontinued due to AEs. Eight serious AEs arose (two patients); none were deemed drug-related. No deaths occurred. Three patients developed anti-agalsidase alfa antibodies, with IgG antibodies in one patient that were agalsidase alfa neutralizing, but without apparent clinical impact. Renal (eGFR) endpoints remained generally in normal range. Cardiac endpoints remained stable within normal range for LVMI and a trend towards improved HRV, although some patients experienced a reduction in heart rate. Plasma and urinary Gb3 reductions were maintained.ConclusionsTKT029 represents the longest assessment of ERT in children with FD in a clinical trial setting. Overall, agalsidase alfa was well tolerated and demonstrated a stabilizing clinical effect. Agalsidase alfa may be a useful clinical therapeutic option for long-term treatment initiated during childhood in patients with FD.Trial registrationhttp://ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT00084084 .
