RESUMO
BACKGROUND: It remains controversial whether a cancer history increases the risk of cardiovascular (CV) events among patients with myocardial infarction (MI) who undergo revascularization.MethodsâandâResults: Patients who were confirmed as type 1 acute MI (AMI) by coronary angiography were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who died in hospital or those not undergoing revascularization were excluded. Patients with a cancer history were compared with those without it. A cancer history was examined in the in-hospital cancer registry. The primary outcome was a composite of cardiac death, recurrent type 1 MI, post-discharge coronary revascularization, heart failure hospitalization, and stroke. Among 551 AMI patients, 55 had a cancer history (cancer group) and 496 did not (non-cancer group). Cox proportional hazards model revealed that the risk of composite endpoint was significantly higher in the cancer group than in the non-cancer group (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 1.78; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.13-2.82). Among the cancer group, patients who were diagnosed as AMI within 6 months after the cancer diagnosis had a higher risk of the composite endpoint than those who were diagnosed as AMI 6 months or later after the cancer diagnosis (adjusted HR: 5.43; 95% CI: 1.55-19.07). CONCLUSIONS: A cancer history increased the risk of CV events after discharge among AMI patients after revascularization.

BACKGROUND: Sudden cardiac arrest is a serious complication of acute myocardial infarction (MI). Although in-hospital mortality from MI has decreased, the mortality of MI patients complicated with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains high. However, the features of acute MI patients with OHCA have not been well known. OBJECTIVES: We sought to characterize the clinical and angiographic features of acute MI patients with OHCA comparing with those without OHCA. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 480 consecutive patients with acute MI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients complicated with OHCA were compared with patients without OHCA. RESULTS: Of the patients, 141 (29%) were complicated with OHCA. Multivariate analysis revealed that age (odds ratio [OR]: 0.8; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.7 to 0.9 per 5 years; p < 0.001), estimated glomerular filtration rate (OR: 0.8; 95% CI: 0.7 to 0.8 per 10 ml/min/1.73 m2; p < 0.001), peak creatine kinase-myocardial band (OR: 1.3; 95% CI: 1.2 to 1.4 per 102 U/l; p < 0.001), calcium-channel antagonists use (OR: 0.4; 95% CI: 0.2 to 0.7; p = 0.002), the culprit lesion at the left main coronary artery (OR: 5.3; 95% CI: 1.9 to 15.1; p = 0.002), and the presence of chronic total occlusion (OR: 2.9; 95% CI: 1.5 to 5.7; p = 0.001) were significantly associated with OHCA. CONCLUSIONS: Younger age, no use of calcium-channel antagonists, worse renal function, larger infarct size, culprit lesion in the left main coronary artery, and having chronic total occlusion were associated with OHCA.
