RESUMO
Objective: To investigate the effect and safety of the combined use of ivabradine and metoprolol in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: Eighty patients with AMI were randomly divided into the ivabradine group and the control group. The ivabradine group was treated with ivabradine combined with metoprolol after PCI, while the control group was treated with metoprolol only. Both groups were treated continuously for 1 year. Echocardiography-derived parameters, heart rate, cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) data, major adverse cardiac events (MACE) and myocardial markers were analyzed. The primary endpoint was the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The safety outcomes were blood pressure, liver and kidney function. Results: The LVEF was significantly higher in the ivabradine group than in the control group at 1 week, 3 months and 1 year after PCI. The heart rate of the ivabradine group was significantly lower than that of the control group at 1 week and 1month after PCI. The VO2max, metabolic equivalents, anaerobic threshold heart rate, peak heart rate, and heart rate recovery at 8 min of the ivabradine group were significantly higher than those of the control group at 1 year after PCI. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated the one-year total incidence of MACE in the ivabradine group was significantly lower than that in the control group. The B-type natriuretic peptide of the ivabradine group was significantly lower than that of the control group on Day 2 and Day 3 after PCI. The high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I level of the ivabradine group was significantly lower than that of the control group on Day 5 after PCI. Conclusion: Early use of ivabradine in patients with AMI after PCI can achieve effective heart rate control, reduce myocardial injury, improve cardiac function and exercise tolerance, and may reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiac events.

RESUMO
BACKGROUND The correlation between serum creatinine levels and the long-term prognosis of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not yet been systematically investigated. This study aimed to evaluate the association between long-term prognosis and serum creatinine levels in patients after PCI. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was an observational cohort study of 2533 patients who received PCI and completed serum creatinine and other tests in China. The study's primary prognostic indicators were the frequency of clinical adverse events, all-cause death, cardiac death, acute myocardial infarction, and stroke. All-cause death referred to death from all causes during the follow-up period, whereas cardiac death was death due to cardiac injury resulting in severe cardiac dysfunction or failure. Clinical events included death, ischemia, and stroke. Yao et al completed the entire study and uploaded the data to the DATADRYAD website. We used only this data for secondary analysis. RESULTS The study involved 2533 participants, with a mean age of 59.9±11.1 years and a median follow-up of 29.8 months. The analysis, controlling for confounding factors, revealed a positive correlation between serum creatinine and all-cause death (OR: 2.178, 95% CI: 1.317-3.603, P<0.05), which was confirmed by the results of sensitivity analysis (P for trend <0.05). However, no direct linear correlation was found between serum creatinine and acute myocardial infarction, cardiac death, or stroke. CONCLUSIONS There was a linear correlation between serum creatinine and all-cause death in the long-term prognosis of patients after PCI, independent of acute myocardial infarction, cardiac death, and stroke.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the ingredients and mechanisms through which Dalbergiae Odoriferae Lignum (DOL) reduces adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity. DOL's ingredients and drug targets were acquired from Traditional Chinese Medicine System Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform (TCMSP), and adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity disease targets were gathered from GeneCards and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). The therapeutic targets of DOL against adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity were identified by intersecting drug and disease targets. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were conducted using R. Subsequently, core targets were determined and used for molecular docking with DOL ingredients. In vitro and in vivo experiments validated DOL's primary ingredients against adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity efficacy. Western blot and immunohistochemistry verified its impact on target protein. After intersecting 530 drug targets and 51 disease targets, 19 therapeutic targets for DOL alleviated adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity were received. Molecular docking demonstrated that DOL primary ingredient formononetin had a robust binding affinity for nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS3). Experimental results showed that formononetin effectively mitigated adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity. Additionally, western blot and immunohistochemistry showed that formononetin improved NOS3 expression. The network pharmacology and experimentation suggest that the primary ingredient of DOL, formononetin, may target NOS3 to act as a therapeutic agent for adriamycin-induced cardiotoxicity.
