RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Admission hyperglycemia is associated with poor prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but the effects of baseline diabetes status on this association remain elusive. We aim to investigate the impact of admission hyperglycemia on short and long-term outcomes in diabetic and non-diabetic AMI patients. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, 3330 patients with regard to first-time AMI between July 2012 and July 2020 were identified. Participants were divided into two groups according to diabetes status (1060 diabetic patients and 2270 non-diabetic patients). Thereafter, they were divided into four groups according to diabetes status-specific cutoff values of fasting blood glucose (FBG) identified by restricted cubic spline. Short-term outcomes included in-hospital death and cardiac complications. Long-term outcomes were all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was conducted to adjust for baseline differences among the groups, followed by a weighted Cox proportional hazards regression analysis to calculate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for all-cause mortality associated with each FBG category. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were performed to test the robustness of our findings. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 3.2 years, 837 patients died. There was a significant interaction between diabetes status and FBG levels for all-cause mortality during long-term follow-up (p-interaction < 0.001). Moreover, restricted cubic spline curves for the association between FBG and all-cause mortality followed a J shape in patients with diabetes and a non-linear in patients without diabetes. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated greater survival in non-hyperglycemia patients compared to hyperglycemia patients for both diabetic and non-diabetic patients groups. Survival of hyperglycemia patients without diabetes greater than in hyperglycemia patients with diabetes. In the weighted Multivariable cox analysis, admission hyperglycemia predicted higher short and long-term mortality. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis showed the robustness of the results. CONCLUSIONS: The inflection points of FBG level for poor prognosis were 5.60 mmol/L for patients without diabetes and 10.60 mmol/L for patients with diabetes. Admission hyperglycemia was identified as an independent predictor of worse short and long-term outcomes in AMI patients, with or without diabetes. These findings should be explored further.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to analyze the CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism among Han and Uyghur patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in the Kashi area of Xinjiang. MATERIAL/METHODS: We enrolled 1020 patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including 220 Han subjects and 800 Uyghur subjects. We used the gene chip method to detect polymorphisms in CYP2C19. The allele frequencies of CYP2C19 and the metabolic phenotype frequencies were then compared between the 2 ethnic groups. RESULTS: The frequency of CYP2C19 *1 was 0.6454 in Han subjects and 0.7869 in Uyghur subjects, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The frequency of CYP2C19 *2 was 0.3273 in Han subjects and 0.1837 in Uyghur subjects (P<0.05). The frequency of the homozygous extensive metabolizer phenotype was 42.72% and 62.13% in Han and Uyghur subjects, respectively (P<0.01). The frequency of the heterozygous extensive metabolizer phenotype was 43.64% and 33.13% in Han and Uyghur subjects, respectively (P<0.01). The frequency of poor metabolizers in Han and Uyghur subjects was 13.64% and 4.76%, respectively (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases located in the Kashgar Prefecture of Xinjiang, there is a differential distribution of CYP2C19 genotypes between the Han and Uyghur populations. Uyghur patients showed higher frequencies of extensive metabolizer genotypes than Han patients, while Han patients showed higher frequencies of poor metabolizer genotypes than Uyghur patients.

Background: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is a serious and common complication following the use of iodinated contrast media, with a 20% fatality rate. The function of long non-coding RNA HILPDA (lnc-HILPDA) in CI-AKI development was investigated in this study. Methods: CI-AKI models were constructed by iopromide treatment. Kidney pathological changes were analyzed by HE staining. TUNEL labeling and flow cytometry were used to examine cell apoptosis. CCK-8 assay was used to determine cell viability. The interactions between lnc-HILPDA, eIF4B, and XPO1 were verified by RIP or Co-IP assay. Results: Lnc-HILPDA was upregulated in CI-AKI, and its knockdown decreased contrast-trigged oxidative stress and apoptosis in HK-2 cells. Mechanically, lnc-HILPDA activated the NF-κB pathway by upregulating XPO1 through interacting with eIF4B. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of lnc-HILPDA downregulation on contrast-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in HK-2 cells was weakened by XPO1 overexpression. Conclusion: Lnc-HILPDA accelerated CI-AKI progression by elevating XPO1 expression through eIF4B to activate NF-κB pathway.
RESUMO
Background: The sex difference trend of short-term mortality in coronary artery disease (CAD) is narrowing, which has been reported in the previous studies. However, no studies assess the sex difference temporal trends of CAD mortality in China especially long-term mortality trend. Methods: Based on the registry at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital which is the largest cardiovascular center in South China, this retrospective cohort study included 24,432 hospitalized patients with CAD confirmed by coronary angiography from January 2007 to December 2014. Women and men were followed for 1-year and 5-year all-cause mortality. Results: From 2007 to 2014, 5-year age-standardized mortality increased from 10.0 to 11.7% in men (p for trend < 0.001) and from 11.5 to 8.1% in women (p for trend = 0.99). The multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (95% CI), which compare women with men, were from 1.02 (0.39-2.67) to 0.66 (0.39-1.12) for 1-year all-cause mortality and 1.23 (0.64-2.36) to 0.59 (0.44-0.79) for 5-year all-cause mortality (p for trend = 0.04). Conclusion: Our study found that the mortality risk among men and women was similar in the 1-year prognosis of CAD, and there was no significant downward trend. In the 5-year long-term prognosis of CAD, the mortality risk among men continued to rise, while women had reached the peak, which means that the mortality risk continues to be higher among men than women.
RESUMO
Aim: This study investigated the prevalence and mortality associated with moderate or severe mitral regurgitation (MR) among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with or without heart failure (HF). Methods: We analyzed patients undergoing PCI without mitral valve surgery from the Cardiorenal ImprovemeNt (CIN) study (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04407936). Patients without echocardiography to determine MR occurrence or lacking follow-up death data were excluded. Primary endpoints were 1-year and long-term all-cause mortality, with a median follow-up time of 5 years (interquartile range: 3.1-7.6). Results: Of 28,358 patients undergoing PCI treatment [mean age: 62.7 ± 10.7; women: 6,749 (25.6%)], 3,506 (12.4%) had moderate or severe MR, and there was a higher rate of moderate or severe MR in HF group than non-HF group (28.8 vs. 5.6%, respectively). Regardless of HF conditions, patients with moderate or severe MR were older and had worse cardio-renal function and significantly increased 1-year mortality [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR): 1.82, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.51-2.2], and long-term mortality [aHR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.3-1.58]. There was no significant difference between patients with HF and those with non-HF (P for interaction > 0.05). Conclusion: One-eighth of the patients undergoing PCI had moderate or severe MR. Furthermore, one-third and one-seventeenth experienced moderate or severe MR with worse cardiorenal function in the HF and non-HF groups, and increased consistent mortality risk. Further studies should explore the efficacy of mitral interventional procedures for moderate or severe MR after PCI treatment, regardless of HF.
