Effect of nonobstructive coronary stenosis on coronary microvascular dysfunction and long-term outcomes in patients with INOCA.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ischemic pain with no-obstructive coronary artery (INOCA) is clinically significant and defined by nonobstructive coronary stenosis <50%. Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is a relevant cause associated with adverse outcomes.

Objectives

Investigated the effect of no-stenosis (0% stenosis) and non-obstructive (0% < stenosis < 50%) on the prognostic impact of CMD in INOCA.

Method

A retrospective study assessed the coronary microvascular function in 151 INOCA patients who underwent invasive angiography by the coronary angiography-derived index of microcirculation-resistance (caIMR). CZT-SPECT was performed to evaluate myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) abnormalities. Chi-square test/Fisher exact test, Student t-test, Kaplan-Meier curve, and Uni-multivariable Cox proportional models were used for analysis. Clinical outcomes were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during a median follow-up of 35 months.

Result

No-stenosis was present in 71 (47%) INOCA patients, and 80 (53%) were with nonobstructive. CMD (caIMR ≥ 25) was more prevalent in patients with no-stenosis than nonobstructive (76.1% vs. 48.8%, p = .001), along with abnormal MPI (39.4% vs. 22.5%, p = .024). The MACE rates were not different between no-stenosis and nonobstructive stenosis. CMD showed an increased risk of MACE for all INOCA. No-stenosis with CMD had the worst prognosis. Cox regression analysis identified CMD and abnormal MPI as predictors of MACE in all INOCA and patients with no-stenosis. However, no-stenosis and nonobstructive stenosis were not predictors of MACE in INOCA.

Conclusion

CMD was more frequently present in INOCA with no-stenosis. However, there was no difference in long-term clinical outcomes between no-stenosis and nonobstructive stenosis. CMD could independently predict poor outcomes in INOCA, particularly in patients with no-stenosis.

Project description:Background In the absence of obstructive coronary stenoses, abnormality of noninvasive stress tests (NIT) in patients with chronic coronary syndromes may indicate myocardial ischemia of nonobstructive coronary arteries (INOCA). The differential prognosis of INOCA according to the presence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) and incremental prognostic value of CMD with intracoronary physiologic assessment on top of NIT information remains unknown. Methods and Results From the international multicenter registry of intracoronary physiologic assessment (ILIAS [Inclusive Invasive Physiological Assessment in Angina Syndromes] registry, N=2322), stable patients with NIT and nonobstructive coronary stenoses with fractional flow reserve >0.80 were selected. INOCA was diagnosed when patients showed positive NIT results. CMD was defined as coronary flow reserve ≤2.5. According to the presence of INOCA and CMD, patients were classified into 4 groups: group 1 (no INOCA nor CMD, n=116); group 2 (only CMD, n=90); group 3 (only INOCA, n=41); and group 4 (both INOCA and CMD, n=40). The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events, a composite of all-cause death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically driven target vessel revascularization at 5 years. Among 287 patients with nonobstructive coronary stenoses (fractional flow reserve=0.91±0.06), 81 patients (38.2%) were diagnosed with INOCA based on positive NIT. By intracoronary physiologic assessment, 130 patients (45.3%) had CMD. Regardless of the presence of INOCA, patients with CMD showed a significantly lower coronary flow reserve and higher hyperemic microvascular resistance compared with patients without CMD (P<0.001 for all). The cumulative incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events at 5 years were 7.4%, 21.3%, 7.7%, and 34.4% in groups 1 to 4. By documenting CMD (groups 2 and 4), intracoronary physiologic assessment identified patients at a significantly higher risk of major adverse cardiovascular events at 5 years compared with group 1 (group 2: adjusted hazard ratio [HRadjusted], 2.88; 95% CI, 1.52-7.19; P=0.024; group 4: HRadjusted, 4.00; 95% CI, 1.41-11.35; P=0.009). Conclusions In stable patients with nonobstructive coronary stenoses, a diagnosis of INOCA based only on abnormal NIT did not identify patients with higher risk of long-term cardiovascular events. Incorporating intracoronary physiologic assessment to NIT information in patients with nonobstructive disease allowed identification of patient subgroups with up to 4-fold difference in long-term cardiovascular events.

Project description:BackgroundThe prognosis of myocardial ischaemia with no obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA) and its underlying vasomotor disorders, vasospastic angina (VSA) and microvascular angina (MVA), is not well defined. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies evaluating the long-term prognosis of patients with INOCA.MethodsWe included studies evaluating the prognosis of patients with INOCA published between January 1984 and August 2023 in Medline, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane databases. Studies were selected if they included patients who fulfilled the Coronary Vasomotor Disorders International Study Group (COVADIS) criteria for either possible or definitive VSA or MVA. The primary outcomes were composite of all-cause death and myocardial infarction (MI), and major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) at annual intervals up to 5-year follow-up. The incidence of primary outcomes for INOCA, each INOCA endotype and by method used to determine the diagnosis was calculated using the random effects model.ResultsFifty-four studies (17 302 patients) meeting the eligibility criteria were selected. The rate of all-cause death and MI with VSA was 0.7 (95% CI 0.4 to 1.0)/100 patient-years and with MVA was 1.1 (95% CI 0.7 to 1.5)/100 patient-years (p>0.05). The rate of MACE with VSA was 1.1 (95% CI 0.5 to 1.9)/100 patient-years and with MVA was 2.5 (95% CI 1.6 to 3.6)/100 patient-years (p=0.025). Patients with reduced coronary flow reserve (CFR) had higher all-cause death and MI rates than patients whose diagnosis of MVA was established based on an abnormal exercise or imaging stress test (4.7 (95% CI 2.0 to 8.4) vs 0.5 (95% CI 0.1 to 1.1) vs 1.1 (95% CI 0.5 to 2.0)/100 patient-years, p=0.001).ConclusionsOverall, patients with INOCA have a low rate of MACEs, but patients with MVA, especially those with reduced CFR, have a significantly higher rate of MACE than other subgroups, although there is high heterogeneity among the included studies.Prospero registration numberCRD42021275070.

Project description:Background Elevated levels of serum homocysteine, via impaired nitric oxide production, and coronary microvascular dysfunction are associated with increased risk of major adverse cardiovascular events. However, whether serum homocysteine levels and coronary microvascular endothelial dysfunction (CMED) are linked remains unknown. Methods and Results This study included 1418 patients with chest pain or an abnormal functional stress test and with nonobstructive coronary artery disease (<40% angiographic stenosis), who underwent CMED evaluation with functional angiography and had serum homocysteine levels measured. Patients were classified as having normal microvascular function versus CMED. Patients in the CMED group (n=743; 52%) had higher mean age (52.1±12.2 versus 50.0±12.4 years; P<0.0001), higher body mass index (29.1 [25.0-32.8] versus 27.5 [24.2-32.4]; P=0.001), diabetes mellitus (12.5% versus 9.4%; P=0.03), and fewer women (63.5% versus 68.7%; P=0.04) compared with patients in the normal microvascular function group. However, they had lower rates of smoking history, and mildly lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Serum homocysteine levels were significantly higher in patients with CMED, and the highest quartile of serum homocysteine level (>9 µmol/L) was an independent predictor of CMED (odds ratio, 1.34 [95% CI, 1.03-1.75]; P=0.03) after adjustment for age; sex; body mass index; chronic kidney disease (CKD); diabetes mellitus; smoking exposure; low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides; and aspirin, statin, and B vitamin use. Conclusions Patients with CMED have significantly higher levels of serum homocysteine. Elevated serum homocysteine levels were associated with a significantly increased odds of an invasive diagnosis of CMED. The current study supports a potential role for homocysteine for diagnosis and target treatment in the patients with early coronary atherosclerosis.
