RESUMO

Background: Because the clinical benefit of antiplatelet therapy (APT) for patients with nonsignificant coronary artery disease (CAD) remains poorly understood, we evaluated it in patients after fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided deferral of revascularization. Methods and Results: From the J-CONFIRM (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients with Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter Registry), we investigated 265 patients with deferred lesions who did not require APT for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. A 2-year landmark analysis assessed the relationship between APT at 2 years and 5-year major cardiac adverse events (MACE: composite of all-cause death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, clinically driven target vessel revascularization). Of the 265 patients, 163 (61.5%) received APT. The 5-year MACE did not significantly differ between the APT and non-APT groups after adjustment for baseline clinical characteristics (9.2% vs. 6.9%, inverse probability weighted hazard ratio, 1.40 [95% confidence interval, 0.53-3.69]; P=0.49). There was a marginal interaction between the effect of APT on MACE and FFR values (< or ≥0.84) (P for interaction=0.066). Conclusions: The 5-year outcomes after FFR-guided deferral of revascularization did not significantly differ between the APT and non-APT groups, suggesting that APT might not be a critical requirement for nonsignificant obstructive CAD patients not requiring APT for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.

RESUMO

Background: The relationship between sex differences and long-term outcomes after fractional flow reserve (FFR)- and instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR)-guided deferral of revascularization has yet to be elucidated. Methods and Results: From the J-CONFIRM registry (long-term outcomes of Japanese patients with deferral of coronary intervention based on FFR in a multicenter registry), this study included 432 lesions from 385 patients (men, 323 lesions in 286 patients; women, 109 lesions in 99 patients) with paired data of FFR and iFR. The primary endpoint was the cumulative 5-year incidence of target vessel failure (TVF), including cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, and clinically driven target vessel revascularization. The median FFR value was lower in men than in women (0.85 [0.81, 0.88] vs. 0.87 [0.83, 0.91], P=0.002), but the iFR value was comparable between men and women (0.94 [0.90, 0.98] vs. 0.93 [0.89, 0.98], P=0.26). The frequency of discordance between FFR and iFR was comparable between men and women (19.5% vs. 23.9%, P=0.34), although with different discordance patterns (P=0.036). The cumulative incidence of 5-year TVF did not differ between men and women after adjustment for baseline characteristics (13.9% vs. 6.9%, adjusted hazard ratio 1.82 [95% confidence interval: 0.44-7.56]; P=0.41). Conclusions: Despite sex differences in the results for physiological indexes, the 5-year TVF in deferred lesions did not differ between men and women after adjustment for baseline characteristics.

RESUMO

Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) might influence fractional flow reserve (FFR) value, potentially attenuating its prognostic utility. However, few large-scale data are available regarding clinical outcomes after FFR-guided deferral of revascularization in patients with CKD. Methods and Results From the J-CONFIRM registry (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients With Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter Registry), 1218 patients were divided into 3 groups according to renal function: (1) non-CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥60 mL/min per 1.73 m2), n=385; (2) CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate 15-59 mL/min per 1.73 m2, n=763); and (3) end-stage renal disease (ESRD) (eGFR <15 mL/min per 1.73 m2, n=70). The primary study end point was the cumulative 5-year incidence of target vessel failure (TVF), defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, and clinical driven target vessel revascularization. Cumulative 5-year incidence of TVF was significantly higher in the ESRD group than in the CKD and non-CKD group, whereas it did not differ between the CKD and non-CKD groups (26.3% versus 11.9% versus 9.5%, P<0.001). Although the 5-year TVF risk increased as the FFR value decreased regardless of renal function, patients with ESRD had a remarkably higher risk of TVF at every FFR value than those with CKD and non-CKD. Conclusions At 5 years, patients with ESRD showed a higher incidence of TVF than patients with CKD and non-CKD, although with similar outcomes between patients with CKD and non-CKD. Patients with ESRD had an excess risk of 5-year TVF at every FFR value compared with those with CKD and non-CKD. Registration URL: https://www.umin.ac.jp; Unique identifier: UMIN000014473.

RESUMO

Background: Little evidence is available about the long-term safety of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided deferral of revascularization in infarct-related artery (IRA) lesions, especially when measuring FFR in the late setting after myocardial infarction (MI). This study aimed to assess the long-term outcomes after deferral of revascularization in IRA lesions based on FFR assessed in the late phase of post-MI. Methods: From the J-CONFIRM registry (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients With Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter Registry), data on 1447 lesions (1263 patients) were divided into 2 groups: the IRA and non-IRA groups. The primary study end point was the cumulative 5-year incidence of target vessel failure (TVF), such as cardiac death, target vessel-related MI, and clinically driven target vessel revascularization. Results: Of the 1447 lesions, 138 (9.5%) were classified into the IRA group. The median duration of FFR measurement was 716 days after MI. The frequency of visual-functional mismatches (ie, FFR >0.80 and percent diameter stenosis ≥50% or FFR ≤0.80 and percent diameter stenosis <50%) was comparable between the IRA and non-IRA groups (31.9% vs 36.3%). The cumulative 5-year incidence of TVF did not differ between the groups (9.2% vs 11.8%; inverse probability-weighted hazard ratio, 1.18, 95% confidence intervals, 0.48-2.91, P = .71). Similar results were observed irrespective of regional wall motion assessed by ultrasonic cardiography and acute MI type. Conclusions: The 5-year TVF rate did not differ between the IRA and non-IRA lesions when deferring revascularization guided by FFR in the late setting of post-MI.

RESUMO

This study aims to explore the associations between uric acid (UA) and long-term outcomes among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A total of 1068 consecutive patients with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into 3 groups based on the levels of serum UA upon admission (bottom quintile, middle 3 quintiles, and top quintile). The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. The patients in the higher UA groups were associated with younger age (71 ± 11 versus 68 ± 12 versus 67 ± 14 years; P < 0.05) and were more likely to be male (57.6 versus 76.9 versus 84.7%; P < 0.001). Furthermore, these patients had lower estimated glomerular filtration rates (83 ± 27 versus 74 ± 23 versus 59 ± 24 mL/minute/1.73 m2; P < 0.001) and lower left ventricular ejection fractions (58 ± 14 versus 57 ± 14 versus 53 ± 15%; P < 0.001). During the median 4-year follow-up, there were 158 incidents of all-cause death. Patients in the top quintile, followed by patients in the bottom quintile, had greater all-cause mortality compared with patients in the middle quintile (16.5 versus 11.4 versus 23.8%; P < 0.001). When the middle of the 3 quintiles was assigned as the reference group, the adjusted hazard ratios for all-cause mortality for the top and bottom quintiles were 1.72 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.16-2.53, P < 0.05) and 1.57 (95% CI 1.03-2.36, P < 0.05), respectively. These results demonstrate that UA levels upon admission in patients with ACS who underwent PCI exhibited a 'J-shaped' association with all-cause mortality.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Little evidence is available regarding the long-term outcome in elderly patients after deferral of revascularization based on fractional flow reserve (FFR).Methods and Results: From the J-CONFIRM registry (long-term outcomes of Japanese patients with deferral of coronary intervention based on fractional flow reserve in multicenter registry), 1,262 patients were divided into 2 groups according to age: elderly and younger patients (aged ≥75 or <75 years, respectively). The primary endpoint was the cumulative 5-year incidence of target vessel failure (TVF), defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction (TVMI), and clinically driven target vessel revascularization (CDTVR). Cumulative 5-year incidence of TVF was not significantly different between elderly and younger patients (14.3% vs. 10.8%, P=0.12). Cardiac death occurred more frequently in elderly patients than younger patients (4.4% vs. 0.8%, P<0.001), whereas TVMI and CDTVR did not differ between groups (1.3% vs. 0.9%, P=0.80; 10.7% vs. 10.1%, P=0.80, respectively). FFR values in lesions with diameter stenosis <50% were significantly higher in elderly patients than in younger patients (0.88±0.07 vs. 0.85±0.07, P=0.01), whereas this relationship was not observed in those with diameter stenosis ≥50%. CONCLUSIONS: Elderly patients had no excess risk of ischemic events related to the deferred coronary lesions by FFR, although FFR values in mild coronary artery stenosis were modestly different between elderly and younger patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Little large-scale data is available about the long-term (beyond 3 years) clinical outcomes after fractional flow reserve (FFR)-based deferral of revascularization in clinical practice. We sought to assess the 5-year outcomes after deferral of revascularization based on FFR. METHODS: The J-CONFIRM registry (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients With Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter Registry) prospectively enrolled 1263 patients with 1447 lesions in whom revascularization was deferred based on FFR from 28 Japanese centers. The primary study end point was the cumulative 5-year incidence of target vessel failure (TVF), including cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, and clinically driven target vessel revascularization. RESULTS: Five-year follow-up was completed in 92.2% of patients. The 5-year TVF rate was 11.6% in deferred lesions, mainly driven by clinically driven target vessel revascularization (9.8%). Cardiac death and target vessel-related myocardial infarction were 1.9% and 0.95%, respectively. Cumulative 5-year incidence of TVF was similar between the FFR 0.75 to 0.80 and 0.81 to 0.85 groups even after adjustment for baseline characteristics (12.2% versus 13.0%, inverse probability-weighted hazard ratio, 0.86 [95% CI, 0.46-1.60]; P=0.63). Compared with the almost normal FFR (0.86-1.00) group, the significant (<0.75) and borderline (0.75-0.85) FFR groups showed a higher incidence of TVF at 5 years (29.9% versus 12.8% versus 8.6%, P<0.001). Independent predictors of the 5-year TVF were hemodialysis, FFR value, left main coronary artery lesion, prior percutaneous coronary intervention, and male sex. CONCLUSIONS: The 5-year TVF rate was 11.6% in deferred lesions, mainly driven by clinically driven target vessel revascularization. Notably, cardiac death and target vessel-related myocardial infarction rarely occurred during the follow-up. Our findings highlight the long-term safety of FFR-based deferral of revascularization in patients with chronic coronary syndrome.

RESUMO

AIMS: Guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) is essential to prevent future cardiovascular events in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients. However, whether achieving optimal GDMT could improve clinical outcomes in CCS patients with deferred lesions based on fraction flow reserve (FFR) remains thoroughly investigated. We sought to evaluate the association of GDMT adherence with long-term outcomes after FFR-based deferral of revascularization in a real-world registry. METHODS AND RESULTS: This is a post-hoc analysis of the J-CONFIRM registry (long-term outcomes of Japanese patients with deferral of coronary intervention based on fractional flow reserve in multicentre registry). Optimal GDMT was defined as combining four types of medications: antiplatelet drug, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin II receptor blocker, beta-blocker, and statin. After stratifying patients by the number of individual GDMT agents at 2 years, landmark analysis was conducted to assess the relationship between GDMT adherence at 2 years and 5-year major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), defined as a composite of all-cause death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, clinically driven target vessel revascularization. Compared with the suboptimal GDMT group (continuing ≤3 types of medications, n = 974), the optimal GDMT group (n = 139) showed a lower 5-year incidence of MACE (5.2% vs. 12.4%, P = 0.02). The optimal GDMT was associated with a lower risk of MACE (hazard ratio: 0.41; 95% confidence interval: 0.18 to 0.92; P = 0.03). CONCLUSION: Patients with optimal GDMT were associated with better outcomes, suggesting the importance of achieving optimal GDMT on long-term prognosis in CCS patients after FFR-guided deferral of revascularization.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of thrombotic risk on the occurrence of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease with deferred revascularization after fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurements. BACKGROUND: Deferral of revascularization on the basis of FFR is generally considered to be safe, but after deferral, some patients have cardiovascular events over time. METHODS: From J-CONFIRM registry (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients With Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter Registry), 1,263 patients with deferral of revascularization on the basis of FFR were evaluated. The association between thrombotic risk as assessed by CREDO-Kyoto (Coronary Revascularization Demonstrating Outcome Study in Kyoto) thrombotic score and 5-year target vessel failure (TVF) and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) was investigated. RESULTS: FFR and high thrombotic risk (HTR) were associated with increased risk for 5-year TVF (FFR per 0.01-unit decrease: HR: 1.08; 95% CI: 1.05-1.11; P < 0.001; HTR: HR: 2.16; 95% CI: 1.37-3.39; P < 0.001) and MACCE (FFR per 0.01-unit decrease: HR: 1.05; 95% CI: 1.02-1.06; P < 0.001; HTR: HR: 2.11; 95% CI: 1.56-2.84; P = 0.001). Patients with HTR had higher risk for 5-year TVF (HR: 2.30; 95% CI: 1.45-3.66; P < 0.001) and MACCE (HR: 2.34; 95% CI: 1.75-3.13; P < 0.001) than those without HTR, even when they had negative FFR. CONCLUSIONS: Assessment of thrombotic risk provides additional prognostic value to FFR in predicting 5-year TVF and MACCE in patients with deferral of revascularization after FFR measurements.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Adequate improvement in fractional flow reserve (FFR) is not necessarily achieved in some cases of drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation, even when imaging confirms successful placement. We hypothesized that post-stent FFR may be associated with advanced diffuse atherosclerotic condition. We explored the relationships between FFR values after DES implantation (post-stent FFR). METHODS: A total of 218 patients were included in this prospective, multicenter study and were divided into two groups: adequate FFR group (post-stent FFR >0.80, n=176) and inadequate FFR group (post-stent FFR ≤0.80, n=42). The primary endpoint was a major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) including cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI), unplanned coronary revascularization, and hospitalization for heart failure. The secondary endpoints were event rate of all-cause death, non-fatal MI, unplanned coronary revascularization, non-fatal stroke, and hospitalization for heart failure. RESULTS: During follow-up of 31.4±8.7 months, 34 patients (16%) had cardiovascular events. Inadequate FFR group was significantly associated with higher risk of MACE (hazard ratio: 3.86; 95% confidence interval: 1.17-12.76, p=0.026; log-rank p=0.027). In particular, the incidence of unplanned coronary revascularization on non-target lesions was significantly higher in the inadequate FFR group (log-rank p=0.031). CONCLUSIONS: Post-stent FFR ≤0.80 was associated with a high incidence of non-target lesion revascularization and could be a surrogate marker for advanced atherosclerotic condition in the vessels of the entire coronary artery.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) is an autosomal-dominant inherited genetic disease. It carries an extremely high cardiovascular risk associated with significantly elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. The diagnostic rate of this disease in some European nations is quite high, due to the presence of multiple prospective registries. On the other hand, few data-and in particular multicentre data-exist regarding this issue among Japanese subjects. Therefore, this study intends to assemble a multicentre registry that aims to comprehensively assess cardiovascular risk among Japanese FH patients while taking into account their genetic backgrounds. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The Hokuriku-plus FH registry is a prospective, observational, multicentre cohort study, enrolling consecutive FH patients who fulfil the clinical criteria of FH in Japan from 37 participating hospitals mostly in Hokuriku region of Japan from April 2020 to March 2024. A total of 1000 patients will be enrolled into the study, and we plan to follow-up participants over 5 years. We will collect clinical parameters, including lipids, physical findings, genetic backgrounds and clinical events covering atherosclerotic and other important events, such as malignancies. The primary endpoint of this study is new atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) events. The secondary endpoints are as follows: LDL cholesterol, secondary ASCVD events and the occurrence of other diseases including hypertension, diabetes and malignancies. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study is being conducted in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki, the Ethical Guidelines for Medical and Health Research Involving Human Subjects, and all other applicable laws and guidelines in Japan. This study protocol has been approved by the Institutional Review Board at Kanazawa University. We will disseminate the final results at international conferences and in a peer-reviewed journal.

RESUMO

Subclinical peripheral artery disease (PAD) might be associated with pathophysiology of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI). We hypothesized that concomitant PAD in patients with the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) would represent a high-risk subgroup with a greater incidence of CI-AKI, both of which lead to higher mortality after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Six hundred and seventy-five consecutive patients with ACS who underwent PCI and examination of ankle-brachial index (ABI) were analyzed retrospectively. The presence of PAD was defined as an ABI < 0.9. We investigated whether (1) PAD was an independent predictor of CI-AKI (≥ 0.3 mg/dL or ≥ 50% relative increase in serum creatinine within 48 h after PCI) and (2) PAD and CI-AKI were independently associated with long-term mortality. Of the 675 patients with ACS, 114 (17%) exhibited PAD. The incidence of CI-AKI was significantly higher in PAD patients, compared with the remaining patients (12% vs. 4%, p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the presence of PAD was an independent predictor for the development of CI-AKI [odds ratio 2.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.07-5.73, p < 0.05]. During the median 4-year follow-up, there were 65 incidents of all-cause death. In the multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis, the presence of PAD [hazard ratio (HR) 2.08, 95% CI 1.17-3.65, p < 0.05] and CI-AKI (HR 2.23, 95% CI 1.08-4.26, p < 0.05) were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality. Assessment of ABI provides useful information for predicting CI-AKI and long-term mortality in patients with ACS after PCI.

RESUMO

Background: The effect of symptoms on clinical outcomes after deferral of revascularization based on fractional flow reserve (FFR) remains poorly understood. Methods and Results: From the J-CONFIRM (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients With Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter) Registry, this study evaluated 1,215 patients with stable coronary artery disease, including symptomatic and asymptomatic patients (n=571 and 644, respectively). The primary endpoint was the cumulative 2-year incidence of target vessel failure (TVF), including cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction (TVMI), and clinically driven target vessel revascularization (CDTVR). An inverse probability weighted analysis was performed to adjust for the differences in baseline clinical characteristics between the 2 groups. At 2 years, the TVF rate did not differ significantly between symptomatic and asymptomatic patients (6.5% vs. 4.9%, respectively; P=0.15) or between symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with lesions with an FFR ≤0.80 (8.0% vs. 12.3%, respectively; P=0.20). Conversely, symptomatic patients showed significantly higher rates of TVF (6.2% vs. 3.3%; P=0.01) and CDTVR (6.2% vs. 3.1%; P=0.009) than asymptomatic patients, regardless of negative FFR values (>0.80). Conclusions: Despite negative FFR values, symptomatic patients were at higher risk of TVF than asymptomatic patients, driven primarily by a higher rate of CDTVR. Conversely, those with a positive FFR were likely to develop TVF regardless of their symptoms.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The safety of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-based deferral of revascularization remains to be fully established in real-world practice. We sought to assess clinical outcomes after deferral of revascularization based on FFR. METHODS: The J-CONFIRM registry (Long-Term Outcomes of Japanese Patients With Deferral of Coronary Intervention Based on Fractional Flow Reserve in Multicenter Registry) prospectively enrolled 1263 patients with 1447 lesions in whom revascularization was deferred based on FFR at 28 Japanese centers. The primary study end point was the cumulative 2-year incidence of target vessel failure, including cardiac death, target-vessel related myocardial infarction, and clinically driven target vessel revascularization. RESULTS: The mean FFR was 0.86±0.06. At 2 years, the target vessel failure rate was 5.5% in deferred lesions, mainly driven by a high rate of clinically driven target vessel revascularization (5.2%), and significantly increased with decreasing FFR, especially in the proximal location. Cardiac death and target-vessel related myocardial infarction rarely occurred during the 2-year follow-up (0.41% and 0.41%, respectively). Independent predictors of 2-year target vessel failure were FFR value (per 0.01 decrease; hazard ratio [HR] 1.07 [95% CI, 1.04-1.11], P<0.001), left main coronary artery lesion (HR, 5.89 [95% CI, 2.72-12.8], P<0.001), moderately to severely calcified lesion (HR, 2.49 [95% CI, 1.36-4.58]; P=0.003), hemodialysis (HR, 2.90 [95% CI, 1.11-7.58]; P=0.03), and right coronary artery lesion (HR, 1.78 [95% CI, 1.02-3.11], P=0.042). CONCLUSIONS: The J-CONFIRM registry demonstrated the 2-year target vessel failure rate was 5.5% in deferred lesions, highlighting the safety of FFR-based deferral of revascularization in daily practice.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Although concomitant peripheral artery disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has been considered as a high-risk subgroup with a greater incidence of bleeding after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), few data exist regarding the clinical utility of the ankle-brachial index (ABI) for predicting bleeding complications, which affects the subsequent outcome. METHODS: Eight hundred and twenty-four consecutive patients with ACS who underwent PCI and ABI examination were analyzed retrospectively. Decreased-ABI was defined as ABI <0.9. The primary outcome was bleeding complications within 30 days, which was defined according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium classification grade ≥3. The secondary endpoint was all-cause death during follow-up. RESULTS: Of the 824 patients with ACS, 137 (16.6%) exhibited decreased-ABI. The incidence of bleeding complications was significantly higher in patients with decreased-ABI, compared with the remaining patients (21.9% vs. 6.0%, p<0.001). In multivariate analysis, anemia [odds ratio (OR) 2.14], estimated glomerular filtration rate<60mL/min/1.73m2 (OR 2.14), femoral access (OR 3.31), use of an intra-aortic balloon pump (OR 3.16), and decreased-ABI (OR 2.58) were independent predictors of 30-day bleeding complications. Assigning 1 point for each variable, we developed a new bleeding risk score (range, 0-5). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve for the probability of 30-day bleeding for the new risk score was significantly superior than that of the traditional one (0.82 vs. 0.76, p<0.05). During the median 4-year follow-up, there were 98 incidents of all-cause death. Multivariate Cox-proportional hazard analysis revealed that decreased-ABI [hazard ratio (HR) 1.91, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.15-3.13, p<0.05] and 30-day bleeding (HR 3.00, 95% CI 1.76-4.97, p<0.001) were associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Assessment of ABI provides useful information for predicting 30-day bleeding complications and long-term mortality in patients with ACS after PCI.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the impact of stent deformity induced by final kissing balloon technique (KBT) for coronary bifurcation lesions on in-stent restenosis (ISR). BACKGROUND: In experimental models, the detrimental effects of KBT have been clearly demonstrated, but few data exists regarding the impact of proximal stent deformity induced by KBT on clinical outcomes. METHODS: We examined 370 coronary lesions where intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided second-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for coronary bifurcation lesions was performed. Based on IVUS analysis, the stent symmetry index (minimum/maximum stent diameter) and stent overstretch index (the mean of stent diameter/the mean of reference diameter) were calculated in the proximal main vessel. RESULTS: The stent symmetry index was significantly lower (0.75 ± 0.07 vs 0.88 ± 0.06, P < 0.0001) and the stent overstretch index was significantly higher (1.04 ± 0.08 vs 1.01 ± 0.06, P = 0.0007) in lesions with KBT (n = 174) compared to those without KBT (n = 196). The number of two-stent technique in lesions with KBT was 31 (18%). In multivariate analysis, the degree of stent deformity indices was not associated with ISR in lesions with KBT; however, two-stent technique use was the only independent predictor of ISR at 8 months (hazard ratio: 3.96, 95% confidence interval: 1.25-12.5, P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Second-generation DES deformity induced by KBT was not associated with mid-term ISR.

RESUMO

Although statin therapy is beneficial in the setting of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), a substantial proportion of patients with ACS still do not receive the guideline-recommended lipid management in contemporary practice. We hypothesize that the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level at the time of admission might affect patient management and the subsequent outcome. Nine-hundred and forty-two consecutive patients with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention were analyzed retrospectively. The study patients were first divided into two groups based on the LDL-C level on admission: group A (n = 267), with LDL-C < 100 mg/dL; and group B (n = 675), with LDL-C ≥ 100 mg/dL. Each group was then further divided into those who were prescribed statins or not at the time of discharge from the hospital. The primary endpoint was all-cause death. In addition, we analyzed the serial changes of LDL-C within 1 year. Patients in group A were significantly older and more likely to have multiple comorbidities compared with group B. The proportion of patients who were prescribed statin at discharge was significantly smaller in group A compared with group B (57.7 vs. 77.3%, p < 0.001). During the median 4-year follow-up, there were 122 incidents of all-cause death. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that LDL-C < 100 mg/dL on admission [hazard ratio (HR), 1.61; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.09-2.39; p < 0.05] and prescription of statins at discharge (HR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.36-0.76; p < 0.001) were associated significantly with all-cause death. Under these conditions, increasing LDL-C levels were documented during follow-up in those patients in group A when no statins were prescribed at discharge (79 ± 15-96 ± 29 mg/dL, p < 0.001), whereas these remained unchanged when statins were prescribed at discharge (79 ± 15-77 ± 22 mg/dL, p = 0.30). These results demonstrate that decreased LDL-C on admission in ACS led to less prescription for statins, which could result in increased death, probably due to underestimation of the baseline LDL-C.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety and feasibility of virtual 3 Fr (V3), sheathless 5 Fr percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND: A small-diameter guiding catheter (GC) makes less-invasive PCI possible. The V3 is an extremely slender PCI system; however, the outcome of using this system has not yet been determined. METHODS: The V3 registry is a prospective, multicenter, non-randomized study that enrolled patients who underwent elective V3-PCI. The primary endpoint was clinical success rate, and the secondary endpoints were PCI success rate in all cases, major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) at 30 days, and access-site complications. RESULTS: A total of 260 patients with 321 lesions were enrolled. Of this group, 70% were male and the mean age was 70.8 ± 10.0 years. Type B2/C lesions comprised 50.7% of the total. The clinical success rate was 95.8%, and the PCI success rate was 99.2%. PCI failure was reported in 2 chronic total occlusion cases. No MACCE was reported. Although there was no major bleeding, hematoma occurred at the puncture site in 12.7% of cases. There was a single radial artery occlusion (0.4%) without symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: PCI with the V3 was safe and feasible. Radial artery occlusion and major bleeding complications were extremely low. However, access-site hematoma frequently complicated catheter exchange.

RESUMO

Although Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score based on angiographic scoring system was developed in patients with previous coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), few data exist regarding its prognostic utility in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We examined 272 patients with previous CABG (217 men; mean age, 70.4 ± 9.7 years) undergoing PCI. Severity of the coronary anatomy was evaluated using CABG-SYNTAX score. The primary end point of this study was cardiovascular death. The baseline CABG-SYNTAX score ranged from 2 to 53.5, with an average of 26.0 ± 10.2. In the index procedures, PCI for the native coronary accounted for nearly all patients (88%). During follow-up (median 4.1 years), 40 cardiovascular deaths had occurred. In multivariate analysis, age >75 years (hazard ratio [HR] 2.82, 95% CI 1.45 to 5.52), left ventricular ejection fraction <40% (HR 2.99, 95% CI 1.39 to 6.07), end-stage renal disease (HR 2.90, 95% CI 1.15 to 6.75), peripheral artery disease (HR 2.20, 95% CI 1.10 to 4.64), and CABG-SYNTAX score >25 (HR 2.37, 95% CI 1.19 to 5.05) were independent predictors of cardiovascular death. After creating a composite risk score in consideration of identified predictors, the freedom from cardiovascular death at 5 years was 98%, 86%, and 58% in the low (0 to 1), medium (2), and high (3 to 5) scores, respectively (p <0.001). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve for cardiovascular death for the CABG-SYNTAX and composite risk scores were 0.66 and 0.77, respectively (p <0.05). In conclusion, the combination of angiographic and clinical characteristics is useful for risk stratification in patients with previous CABG undergoing PCI.

RESUMO

A 78-year-old man with unstable angina showed 90% stenosis in the proximal left anterior descending artery. Pre-procedural intravascular ultrasound revealed ruptured plaque and attenuated plaque in the lesion. Under these conditions, two overlapping sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) implantation in this lesion resulted in slow flow which was recovered by intracoronary nitrates, nicorandil, and nitroprusside without further complications. When the patient showed up again 5 years later with recurrence of angina pectoris, angiography revealed a hazy ulcerated in-stent restenosis (ISR) at the site of the SES. Pre-procedural optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging revealed multiple intimal ruptures, cavity formation behind the stent struts, a thin-cap fibroatheroma containing neointima surrounded by signal-poor, lipid-rich area in the proximal SES, suggesting the progression of neoatherosclerosis within SES. Importantly, there occurred slow flow again after balloon angioplasty for this lesion. We would suggest careful OCT examination is warranted to confirm development of neoatherosclerosis within the stent, and distal protection device should be considered to prevent slow flow phenomenon even in a patient with very late ISR.
