RESUMO

Background: Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) still have a high risk of recurrence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). However, there are rare studies on the prediction of MACCE in patients with ACS using lipoprotein a [Lp(a)] combined with fibrinogen. The aim of this study was to analyze the predictive value of Lp(a) combined with fibrinogen for the long-term prognosis of patients with ACS. Methods: 804 patients with ACS admitted to 11 tertiary general hospitals in Chengdu from January 2017 to June 2019 were included in the study. According to the Lp(a) 300 mg/L, patients were assigned to the non-high Lp(a) group and high Lp(a) group. Patients were assigned to the non-high or high fibrinogen groups using the fibrinogen level of 3.08 g/L. Subsequently, patients were divided into group A, B, or C by Lp(a) combined with fibrinogen. The study endpoints were MACCE, including all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, and revascularization. The incidences of MACCE among groups were compared. Lp(a), fibrinogen, Lp(a) combined with fibrinogen classifications were each added into the basic model to construct three new models. The C-index, net reclassification index (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) of the three new models were then compared. Results: The median follow-up was 16 months. During follow-up, the cumulative incidence of MACCE in group C was significantly higher than that measured in group A and B (p < 0.001). The results of the multivariate Cox regression analysis of MACCE showed that Lp(a) ≥300 mg/L with fibrinogen ≥3.08 g/L was an independent predictor of MACCE. According to the GRACE score and the statistical analyses, the basic model was constructed, which had a C-index of 0.694. The C-index, NRI, and IDI of the new model constructed using the basic model + Lp(a) combined with fibrinogen classification were 0.736, 0.095, and 0.094 respectively. Conclusions: Single Lp(a), single fibrinogen and Lp(a) combined with fibrinogen were independent predictors of MACCE in patients with ACS. The predictive value of Lp(a) combined with fibrinogen in patients with ACS was better than that of single Lp(a) and single fibrinogen.

RESUMO

Purpose: The leuko-glycaemic index (LGI) is an index that combines white blood cell count and blood glucose and could be a marker of systemic inflammatory response syndrome. The prognostic value of the LGI in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is still unclear. We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of the LGI for short- and long-term prognosis in AMI patients with different diabetic status. Patients and Methods: This was an observational, multicenter study involving 1256 AMI patients admitted in 11 hospitals between March 2014 and June 2019 in Chengdu. White blood cell count and blood glucose were measured on admission. The LGI was calculated by multiplying both values and dividing them by a thousand. Logistic regression was used to explore the predictive value of LGI in in-hospital mortality. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off values of the LGI to predict in-hospital mortality. The patients were classified into diabetic and non-diabetic groups and further divided into higher and lower LGI subgroups according to the optimal cut-off values. The endpoints were all-cause mortality during the hospitalization and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) during follow-up, including all-cause mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, vessel revascularization and non-fatal stroke. Results: LGI was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality during the hospitalization in non-diabetics, but not in diabetics. The optimal cut-off values of diabetics and non-diabetics were 3593 mg/dl. mm3 and 1402 mg/dl. mm3, respectively. Whether diabetics or not, in-hospital mortality was higher in the higher LGI subgroup (p-value < 0.001). And in the follow-up of 15 months (9 months, 22 months), we observed 99 (8.6%), 6 (0.5%), 54 (4.7%) and 29 (2.5%) cases of death, non-fatal MI, revascularization and non-fatal stroke, respectively. The cumulative incidence of MACCE during follow-up was higher in the higher LGI subgroup, both in the diabetics and non-diabetics (p-value < 0.05). In non-diabetics, higher LGI was an independent predictor of MACCE. Conclusion: LGI was an independent predictor for short- and long-term prognosis in AMI patients without diabetes, but had no prognostic value for short- and long-term prognosis of AMI patients with diabetes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Whether lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is associated with recurrent cardiovascular events (RCVEs) still remains controversial. The present study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of Lp(a) for long-term RCVEs and each component of it in people with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS: This multicenter, observational and retrospective study enrolled 765 ACS patients at 11 hospitals in Chengdu from January 2014 to June 2019. Patients were assigned to low-Lp(a) group [Lp(a) < 30 mg/dl] and high-Lp(a) group [Lp(a) ≥ 30 mg/dl]. The primary and secondary endpoints were defined as RCVEs and their elements, including all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke and unplanned revascularization. RESULTS: Over a median 17-month follow-up, 113 (14.8%) patients presented with RCVEs were reported, among which we observed 57 (7.5%) all-cause deaths, 22 (2.9%) cases of nonfatal stroke, 13 (1.7%) cases of nonfatal MI and 33 (4.3%) cases of unplanned revascularization. The incidences of RCVEs and revascularization in the high-Lp(a) group were significantly higher than those in the low-Lp(a) group ( P < 0.05), whereas rates of all-cause death, nonfatal stroke and nonfatal MI were not statistically different ( P > 0.05). Kaplan-Meier analysis also revealed the same trend. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis showed that 1-SD increase of Lp(a) was independently associated with both the primary endpoint event [hazard ratio (HR), 1.285 per 1-SD; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.112-1.484; P < 0.001] and revascularization (HR, 1.588 per 1-SD; 95% CI, 1.305-1.932; P < 0.001), but not with the other secondary events. CONCLUSION: Increased Lp(a) is an independent predictor of RCVEs and unplanned revascularization in patients with ACS.

RESUMO

Given the increasing burden of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in China, regional cooperative rescue systems have been constructed based on chest pain centers (CPCs). This study evaluated the effects of these regional cooperative rescue systems on reperfusion time and prognosis of AMI patients. This study included 1937 AMI patients, divided into two groups according to the date of admission, group A (July 2017-June 2018) and group B (July 2018-June 2019). Reperfusion time, the fatality rate for any cause during hospitalization, and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in the 6 months following discharge were compared between the two groups. The proportion of patients treated within the guideline goals for first medical contact to balloon (FMC-to-B) time showed improvement from 40.7% in group A to 50.4% in group B (P = 0.005). The fatality rate for any cause (5.5% vs. 8.0%, P = 0.026) during hospitalization was lower in the B group compared to the A group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the fatality rate for any cause (OR 0.614, 95% CI 0.411-0.918, P = 0.017) was significantly lower in group B compared with group A. No significant differences were detected between the two groups for the incidence of MACCE and death for any cause at 6 months using the log-rank test and multivariate Cox regression analysis. The improvement of regional cooperative rescue systems shortened system delays and reduced in-hospital deaths. Although the system has resulted in some substantial improvements, additional improvement is needed.

RESUMO

The burden of cardiovascular disease is predicted to escalate in developing countries. The aim of this study is to assess the characteristics, management strategies and outcomes of the patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) who were admitted to hospitals under the chest pain center mode in southwest P. R. China. Adults hospitalized with a diagnosis of ACS were enrolled in the retrospective, observational registry between January 2017 and June 2019 at 11 hospitals in Chengdu, P. R. China. The collected data included the patients' baseline characteristics, clinical management and in-hospital outcomes. After Statistical analysis, (1) A total of 2857 patients with ACS, among which 1482 have ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), 681 have non-STEMI (NSTEMI) and 694 have unstable angina (UA) were enrolled in the study. (2) 61.3% of the ACS patients received reperfusion therapy. More patients with STEMI underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared with NSTEMI/UA patients (80.6% vs. 38.8%, P < 0.001), while thrombolytics were administered in only 1.8% of STEMI patients. (3) The median time from symptoms to hospital was 190 min (IQR 94-468) in STEMI, 283 min (IQR 112-1084) in NSTEMI and 337 min (IQR 97-2220) in UA (P < 0.001), and the door-to-balloon time for primary PCI (pPCI) was 85 min (IQR 55-121) in STEMI. (4) The in-hospital outcomes for STEMI patients included death (8.1%) and acute heart failure (22.6%), while the outcomes for those with NSTEMI and UA were better: death (4.0% and 0.9%, P < 0.001) and acute heart failure (15.3% and 9.9%, P < 0.001). (5) Antiplatelet drugs, lipid-lowering drugs, ß-blockers and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) /angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) were used in about 98.3%, 95.0%, 67.7% and 54.3% of the ACS patients, respectively. Therefore, the management capacity in Chengdu has relatively increased compared with previous studies, but important gaps still exist compared with developed countries, especially regarding the management of the NSTEMI/UA patients.

RESUMO

AIMS/INTRODUCTION: The predictive value of admission hyperglycemia in the long-term prognosis of acute myocardial infarction patients is still controversial. We aimed to investigate this value based on the diabetes status. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We carried out a multicenter, retrospective study of 1,288 acute myocardial infarction patients enrolled in 11 hospitals between March 2014 and June 2019 in Chengdu, China. The patients were classified into those with diabetes and those without diabetes, each was further divided into: hyperglycemia and non-hyperglycemia subgroups, according to the optimal cut-off value of the blood glucose to predict all-cause mortality during follow up. The end-points were all-cause death and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, including all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, vessel revascularization and non-fatal stroke. RESULTS: In the follow-up period of 15 months, we observed 210 (16.3%), 6 (0.5%), 57 (4.4%) and 34 (2.6%) cases of death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, revascularization and non-fatal stroke, respectively. The optimal cut-off values of admission blood glucose for patients with diabetes and patients without diabetes to predict all-cause mortality during follow up were 14.80 and 6.77 mmol/L, respectively. We divided patients with diabetes (n = 331) into hyperglycemia (n = 92) and non-hyperglycemia (n = 239), and patients without diabetes (n = 897) into hyperglycemia (n = 425) and non-hyperglycemia (n = 472). The cumulative rates of all-cause death and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events among the patients in each hyperglycemia group was higher than that in the corresponding non-hyperglycemia group (P < 0.001). In patients without diabetes, admission hyperglycemia was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. CONCLUSION: Admission hyperglycemia was an independent predictor for long-term prognosis in acute myocardial infarction patients without diabetes.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The benefits of MPP delay optimization on hemodynamics and ventricular contraction synchronicity can be quantified with cardiac index (CI) and QRS width. A delay with the maximum CI and minimum QRS width may be the optimized settings for multipoint pacing (MPP). METHODS: Twelve patients with advanced heart failure who received cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillation with MPP at the Third People's Hospital of Chengdu from March 2016 to April 2019 were included. Interventricular and intraventricular delays were optimized through noninvasive cardiac output monitoring and a 12 lead ECG. RESULTS: According to CI, the optimized left ventricular- left ventricular - right ventricular delay setting was mainly 25 ms-25 ms and 40 ms-40 ms. And the delay with the minimum QRS width was mainly in 5 ms-5 ms, 25 ms-25 ms, and 40 ms-25 ms. The optimal MPP configuration increased CI compared to the MPP setting that produced the minimum CI (4.5 ± 1.3 vs. 2.8 ± 1.0 L/min/m2, P < 0.001). The QRS width of the optimized MPP was narrower than the MPP setting that produced the maximum QRS width (127 ± 20 vs. 160 ± 29 ms, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Delay optimization improves hemodynamic response and ventricular contraction synchronicity. The delay of 25 ms-25 ms may be the optimal setting for most MPP patients.
