RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Available predictive models for acute coronary syndromes (ACS) have limitations as they have been elaborated some years ago or limitations with applicability. OBJECTIVES: To develop scores for predicting adverse events in 30 days and 6 months in ST-segment elevation and non-ST-segment elevation ACS patients admitted to private tertiary hospital. METHODS: Prospective cohort of ACS patients admitted between August, 2009 and June, 2012. Our primary composite outcome for both the 30-day and 6-month models was death from any cause, myocardial infarction or re-infarction, cerebrovascular accident (CVA), cardiac arrest and major bleeding. Predicting variables were selected for clinical, laboratory, electrocardiographic and therapeutic data. The final model was obtained with multiple logistic regression and submitted to internal validation with bootstrap analysis. RESULTS: We considered 760 patients for the development sample, of which 132 had ST-segment elevation ACS and 628 non-ST-segment elevation ACS. The mean age was 63.2 ± 11.7 years, and 583 were men (76.7%). The final model to predict 30-day events is comprised by five independent variables: age ≥ 70 years, history of cancer, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 40%, troponin I > 12.4 ng /ml and chemical thrombolysis. In the internal validation, the model showed good discrimination with C-statistic of 0.71. The predictors in the 6-month event final model are: history of cancer, LVEF < 40%, chemical thrombolysis, troponin I >14.3 ng/ml, serum creatinine>1.2 mg/dl, history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hemoglobin < 13.5 g/dl. In the internal validation, the model had good performance with C-statistic of 0.69. CONCLUSION: We have developed easy to apply scores for predicting 30-day and 6-month adverse events in patients with ST-elevation and non-ST-elevation ACS.

Fundamento: Os modelos prognósticos disponíveis para Síndrome Coronariana Aguda (SCA) podem ter limitações de performance, por terem sido elaborados há vários anos, ou problemas de aplicabilidade. Objetivos: Elaborar escores para predição de eventos desfavoráveis em 30 dias e 6 meses, em pacientes com SCA, com ou sem Supradesnivelamento de ST (SST), atendida em hospital privado terciário. Métodos: Coorte prospectiva de pacientes consecutivos com SCA admitidos entre agosto/2009 a junho/2012. O desfecho primário composto foi a ocorrência de óbito, infarto ou reinfarto, Acidente Vascular Cerebral (AVC), parada cardiorrespiratória e sangramento maior. As variáveis preditoras foram selecionadas de dados clínicos, laboratoriais, eletrocardiográficos e da terapêutica. O modelo final foi obtido por meio de regressão logística e submetido a validação interna, utilizando-se bootstraping. Resultados: Incluímos 760 pacientes, 132 com SCA com SST e 628 sem SST. A idade média foi 63,2 ± 11,7 anos, sendo 583 homens (76,7%). O modelo final para eventos em 30 dias contém cinco preditores: idade ≥ 70 anos, antecedente de neoplasia, Fração de Ejeção do Ventrículo Esquerdo (FEVE) < 40%, troponinaI > 12,4 ng/mL e trombólise. Na validação interna, o modelo mostrou ter boa performance com área sob a curva de 0,71.Os preditores do modelo para 6 meses são: antecedente de neoplasia, FEVE < 40%, trombólise, troponina I > 14,3 ng/mL, creatinina > 1,2 mg/dL, antecedente de doença pulmonar obstrutiva crônica e hemoglobina < 13,5 g/dL. Na validação interna, o modelo apresentou boa performance com área sob a curva de 0,69. Conclusões: Desenvolvemos escores de fácil utilização e boa performance ...

Arritmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is characterized by the gradual replacement of myocytes by adipose and fibrous tissue. Described in 1977, is considered a potentially lethal cause of cardiac disease poorly understood. This disorder usually involves the right ventricle and has been associated with arrthymia, heart failure, and sudden death. In this paper, we report a case of a 25-year-old patient with syncope associated with ventricular extrasystoles. A magnetic resonance imaging was performed and showed findings that support ARVD diagnose.

A púrpura trombocitopênica idiopática (PTI) é um distúrbio autoimune, caracterizado clinicamente por plaquetopenia e sangramentos mucocutâneos. Trata-se de doença rara na população geral e a ocorrência de infarto agudo do miocárdio (IAM) em pacientes com PTI é ainda menos frequente. Neste artigo os autores descrevem um caso com PTI no qual foi praticada angioplastia coronária tranbsluminal na fase evolutiva do IAM.
Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by the presence of thrombocytopenia and mucocutaneous bleeding. It is a rare condition and the occurrence of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients with ITP is even less common. In the present manuscript the authors report a patient with ITP who underwent percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in the follow-up phase of an AMI.

A displasia arritmogênica do ventrículo direito (DAVD) é caracterizada pela substituição dos miócitos por tecido fibrogorduroso. Descrita em 1977, é considerada uma doença cardíaca potencialmente letal ainda pouco entendida. Afeta primariamente o ventrículo direito e tem sido associada a arritmias, insuficiência cardíaca e morte súbita. O objetivo deste artigo é descrever o caso clínico de um paciente de 25 anos com síncope associada a extra-sístoles ventriculares e achados de ressonância magnética do coração compatíveis com DAVD.
