RESUMO
Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) has significantly contributed to reducing the mortality of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) even in cardiogenic shock and is now the standard of care in most of Japanese institutions. The Task Force on Primary PCI of the Japanese Association of Cardiovascular Interventional and Therapeutics (CVIT) society proposed an expert consensus document for the management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) focusing on procedural aspects of primary PCI in 2018. Updated guidelines for the management of AMI were published by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) in 2017 and 2020. Major changes in the guidelines for STEMI patients included: (1) radial access and drug-eluting stents (DES) over bare-metal stents (BMS) were recommended as a Class I indication, (2) complete revascularization before hospital discharge (either immediate or staged) is now considered as Class IIa recommendation. In 2020, updated guidelines for Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI) patients, the followings were changed: (1) an early invasive strategy within 24 h is recommended in patients with NSTEMI as a Class I indication, (2) complete revascularization in NSTEMI patients without cardiogenic shock is considered as Class IIa recommendation, and (3) in patients with atrial fibrillation following a short period of triple antithrombotic therapy, dual antithrombotic therapy (e.g., DOAC and single oral antiplatelet agent preferably clopidogrel) is recommended, with discontinuation of the antiplatelet agent after 6 to 12 months. Furthermore, an aspirin-free strategy after PCI has been investigated in several trials those have started to show the safety and efficacy. The Task Force on Primary PCI of the CVIT group has now proposed the updated expert consensus document for the management of AMI focusing on procedural aspects of primary PCI in 2022 version.

To evaluate the association between circulating levels of inflammatory cytokines and the occurrence of post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) coronary slow flow (CSF) in patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). CSF after PCI commonly occurs and implies poor outcomes, while the determinants of post-PCI CSF in patients with NSTE-ACS remain controversial. In this multicenter case control study, 176 patients diagnosed with NSTE-ACS and with post-PCI CSF occurred composed of CSF group, while 352 matched NSTE-ACS patients composed control group. Corrected thrombolysis in myocardial infarction frame count (cTFC), circulating levels of inflammatory cytokines and PCI related parameters were analyzed using Logistic regression models. Among 528 patients with median age of 67 (59-76) and male proportion of 65.5%, 176 (35.0%) patients had occurrence of post-PCI CSF defined as cTFC ≥ 24. Patients with CSF presented more intense inflammatory activity revealed by higher levels of white blood cell, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß), soluble IL-2 receptor (sIL-2R), IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), while PCI related parameters were comparable. Correlation analysis showed cTFC was positively correlated with those inflammatory cytokines. Logistic regression model indicates that hs-CRP (odds ratio (OR) = 3.038, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.545-5.975), sIL-2R (OR = 2.103, 95% CI 1.959-4.026) and TNF-α (OR = 3.708, 95% CI 1.426-9.641) were valuable predictors for CSF occurrence. Elevated circulating levels of inflammatory cytokine including hs-CRP, sIL-2R and TNF-α rather than PCI related parameters could predict post-PCI CSF in patients with NSTE-ACS.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: The monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) has been demonstrated as a new marker of inflammation. However, at present, the prognostic value of MHR in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) accompanied with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unclear. METHODS: T2DM patients with NSTE-ACS undergoing PCI were consecutively enrolled from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2014 and divided according to MHR value tertiles. Baseline, procedural, and follow-up data were collected. The primary outcomes were in-hospital major adverse clinical events (MACE). The prespecified secondary outcomes included any bleeding [as indicated by Bleeding Academic Research Consortium definition (BARC) grades 1-5] and death during follow-up. RESULTS: Of the 1,405 enrolled patients, the rates of in-hospital MACE (0.2%, 0.2%, and 1.3%, P=0.043) and bleeding (12.4%, 12.2%, and 17.1%, P=0.048) increased significantly in high MHR tertiles. After 1 year of follow-up, the rates of bleeding (15.0%, 14.5%, and 22.2%, P=0.002) and all-cause death (1.5%, 1.7%, and 4.3%, P=0.010) were higher in higher MHR tertiles. Our results also suggested that MHR was an independent predictor of in-hospital MACE [adjusted odds ratio =8.36; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.57-44.47; P=0.013] and long-term bleeding (adjusted hazard ratio =1.21; 95% CI: 1.07-1.37; P=0.002). Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that MHR >0.022 had a sensitivity of 75.0% and specificity of 72.7% for predicting in-hospital MACE [area under the curve (AUC) =0.722; 95% CI: 0.51-0.933; P=0.040]. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier curves showed that a higher risk of all-cause death in long-term follow-up was prevalent in patients with high MHR (P=0.033). CONCLUSIONS: The increased level of MHR was related to in-hospital MACE and long-term bleeding events in T2DM patients with NSTE-ACS undergoing PCI.
RESUMO
Objective Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is associated with several clinical syndromes, one of which is acute non-ST-segment ACS (NSTE-ACS). S100A1 is a calcium-dependent regulator of heart contraction and relaxation. We investigated the association between the serum S100A1 level and the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) risk score in patients with NSTE-ACS and the potential of using the serum S100A1 level to predict the 30-day prognosis of NSTE-ACS. Methods The clinical characteristics of 162 patients with NSTE-ACS were analyzed to determine the GRACE score. The serum S100A1 concentration was determined using fasting antecubital venous blood. The patients were divided into different groups according to the serum S100A1 level, and the 30-day NSTE-ACS prognosis was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results The serum S100A1 levels differed significantly among the groups. Correlation analysis showed that the serum S100A1 level was positively correlated with the GRACE score. Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the number of 30-day cardiac events was significantly higher in patients with an S100A1 level of >3.41 ng/mL. Conclusions S100A1 is a potential biomarker that can predict the progression of NSTE-ACS and aid in its early risk stratification and prognosis.

Invasive coronary revascularization has been shown to improve prognoses in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS), but the optimal timing of intervention remains unclear. This meta-analysis is to evaluate the outcomes in immediate (<2 h), early (<24 h), and delayed invasive group and find out which is the optimal timing of intervention in NSTE-ACS patients. Studies were identified through electronic literature search of Medline, PubMed Central, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and CNKI. Data were extracted for populations, interventions, outcomes, and risk of bias. All-cause mortality was the pre-specified primary end point. The longest follow-up available in each study was chosen. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% CI was the effect measure. The fixed or random effect pooled measure was selected based on the heterogeneity test among studies. In the comparison between early and delayed intervention, we found that early intervention led to a statistical significant decrease in mortality rate (n = 6,624; OR 0.78, 95% CI: 0.61-0.99) and refractory ischemia (n = 6,127; OR 0.50, 95% CI: 0.40-0.62) and a non-significant decrease in myocardial infarction (MI), major bleeding and revascularization. In the analysis comparing immediate and delayed invasive approach, we found that immediate intervention significantly reduced major bleeding (n = 1,217; OR 0.46, 95% CI: 0.23-0.93) but led to a non-significant decrease in mortality rate, refractory ischemia and revascularization and a non-significant increase in MI. In conclusion, early invasive strategy may lead to a lower mortality rate and reduce the risk of refractory ischemia, while immediate invasive therapy shows a benefit in reducing the risk of major bleeding.
