RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Remnant cholesterol (RC) has garnered increasing attention recently due to its association with adverse cardiovascular events. However, the relationship between RC levels and inflammation remains unclear. The goal of this study was to investigate and compare the predictive value of multiple inflammatory biomarkers for high RC in patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS: Initially, a total of 10,724 consecutive individuals hospitalized for PCI at Fu Wai Hospital in 2013 were enrolled. Finally, 9983 patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy and drug-eluting stent were selected for analysis. The inflammatory biomarkers included high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), hs-CRP-to-albumin ratio (CAR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), lymphocyte-to-hs-CRP ratio (LCR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII). Patients were divided into higher RC and lower RC groups based on the median RC level. Multivariate logistic regression showed that hs-CRP (OR per SD: 1.254), CAR (OR per SD: 1.245), PLR (OR per SD: 1.139), and SII (OR per SD: 1.077) were associated with high RC (≥median), while LCR (OR per SD: 0.792) was associated with low RC (Assuntos

RESUMO
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients combined with thrombocytopenia (TP) are usually considered to be at low ischemic risk, receiving less proper antiplatelet therapy. However, recent studies reported a paradoxical phenomenon that PCI patients with TP were prone to experience thrombotic events, while the mechanisms and future treatment remain unclear. We aim to investigate whether inflammation modifies platelet reactivity among these patients. Consecutive 10 724 patients undergoing PCI in Fuwai Hospital were enrolled throughout 2013. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) ≥2 mg/L was considered inflammatory status. TP was defined as platelet count <150×109/L. High on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) was defined as adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet maximum amplitude of thromboelastogram >47mm. Among 6617 patients finally included, 879 (13.3%) presented with TP. Multivariate logistic regression demonstrated that patients with TP were associated with a lower risk of HTPR (odds ratio [OR] 0.64, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.53-0.76) than those without TP in the overall cohort. In further analysis, among hsCRP <2 mg/L group, patients with TP exhibited a decreased risk of HTPR (OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.41-0.68); however, in hsCRP ≥2mg/L group, TP patients had a similar risk of HTPR as those without TP (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.63-1.08). Additionally, these results remain consistent across subgroups, including patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome and chronic coronary syndrome. Inflammation modified the platelet reactivity of PCI patients with TP, providing new insights into the mechanisms of the increased thrombotic risk. Future management for this special population should pay more attention to inflammation status and timely adjustment of antiplatelet therapy in TP patients with inflammation.
What is the context? Recent studies reported a paradoxical phenomenon that percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients with thrombocytopenia (TP) were prone to experience thrombotic events. The potential mechanisms underlying the increased thrombotic risk and how to manage antiplatelet therapy in PCI patients with TP remain unclear.Growing attention has been paid to immunothrombosis. Inflammation is closely associated with high-on treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) and thrombotic risk.HTPR is an independent risk factor of thrombosis and can provide information for guiding antiplatelet therapy.What is new? This prospective cohort study enrolled 10 724 patients undergoing PCI in Fuwai Hospital (National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases, Beijing, China), with HTPR risk being the study endpoint of interest.We first reported that inflammation significantly modified the platelet reactivity of PCI patients with TP.When hsCRP level <2 mg/L, PCI patients with TP had a decreased risk of HTPR. However, when hsCRP ≥2 mg/L, TP patients had similar HTPR risk as those without TP.HsCRP levels could modify the relationship between TP and HTPR risks both in patients with acute coronary syndrome and chronic coronary syndrome.What is the impact? These results provide insights into potential mechanisms of the increased thrombotic risk in PCI patients with TP. Specifically, inflammation might be involved in the thrombotic risk of PCI patients with TP by modifying the platelet reactivity.As for future management, personalized antiplatelet therapy should be administrated to TP patients with inflammation status.

Purpose: The association between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) and cardiovascular risk in patients with coronary artery disease remains inconsistent. Recent investigations indicated potential dysfunctionality of HDL under inflammation. This study endeavors to explore whether the inflammatory status modifies the effects of HDL-C and ApoA-I on cardiovascular risk in individuals with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Patients and Methods: Consecutive 10,724 PCI patients at Fuwai hospital in 2013 were enrolled. Inflammation status was defined by high-sensitivity C-reactive proteins (hsCRP) ≥ 2 mg/L. The study endpoint was cardiac mortality. Results: Among 9569 PCI patients eventually included, 225 (2.4%) cardiac mortality happened during 5 years. In hsCRP ≥ 2 mg/L group, an U-shaped curve was observed for HDL-C and multivariate Cox regression showed that elevated risks of cardiac mortality correlated to both the lowest quintile (hazard ratio [HR], 2.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.32-4.71) and the highest quintile of HDL-C (HR, 2.28; 95% CI, 1.23-4.25). However, an L-shaped curve existed in ApoA-I, indicating only the lowest quintile level of ApoA-I was associated with an increased cardiac mortality risk (HR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.28-3.75). Nevertheless, in hsCRP < 2 mg/L group, no significant correlations between HDL-C and ApoA-I and cardiac mortality risk were identified (both P > 0.05). Conclusion: In PCI patients with hsCRP ≥ 2 mg/L. both low and high HDL-C levels correlated with higher cardiac mortality risk (U-shaped), while only low ApoA-I levels were linked to elevated risk (L-shaped). However, in patients with hsCRP < 2 mg/L, neither HDL-C nor ApoA-I levels were associated with higher cardiac mortality risk. These findings shed light on the importance of considering inflammation status, particularly hsCRP levels, in managing HDL-C and ApoA-I levels, and suggest targeting elevated ApoA-I levels as a potential therapeutic approach for PCI patients with hsCRP ≥ 2 mg/L.
RESUMO
AIM: The dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) score is recommended for predicting the risk of ischemia and bleeding for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This study aimed to investigate the long-term prognostic value of the DAPT score in older PCI patients. METHODS: This study enrolled 10,724 consecutive patients who underwent PCI from January 2013 to December 2013 in Fu Wai hospital, among whom 2,981 (27.8%) were aged ≥ 65 years. The ischemic endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE, including myocardial infarction, all-cause death, and stroke). The bleeding endpoint was Bleeding Academic Research Consortium (BARC) 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. RESULTS: After a 5-year follow-up, 256 (12.0%) MACCEs and 53 (2.5%) BARC 2, 3, or 5 bleeding occurred. The patients were divided into two groups according to the DAPT score: the low-score (ï¼2, n=1,646) and high-score (≥ 2, n=485) group. Multivariate Cox regression revealed that the risk of MACCE was similar between the two groups [hazard ratio (HR): 1.214, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.916-1.609, P=0.178], whereas the risk of bleeding was significantly higher in the high-score group than in the low-score group (HR: 2.447, 95% CI: 1.407-4.257, P=0.002). The DAPT score did not show prognostic value in MACCE [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), 0.534; 95% CI: 0.496-0.572, P=0.079]; however, it demonstrated a certain prognostic value in BARC 2, 3, or 5 bleeding (AUROC, 0.646; 95% CI: 0.573-0.719, Pï¼0.001). CONCLUSION: This study suggested that in older PCI patients, the DAPT score did not show predictive value for MACCE; however, it had a certain predictive value for 5-year BARC 2, 3, or 5 bleeding.

BACKGROUND: Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) combined with diabetes have a higher risk of cardiovascular events, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)-to-albumin ratio (CAR) is a novel inflammatory biomarker. However, whether the CAR can identify high-risk patients with CAD and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) remains unclear. METHODS: The present study was based on a prospective and observational cohort with 10,724 individuals who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in Fu Wai Hospital throughout the year 2013 consecutively enrolled. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality. The secondary endpoint was cardiac mortality. CAR was calculated with the formula: hs-CRP (mg/L)/albumin (g/L). According to the optimal cut-off value of CAR for all-cause mortality, patients were divided into higher CAR (CAR-H) and lower CAR (CAR-L) groups. RESULTS: A total of 2755 patients with T2DM who underwent PCI and received dual antiplatelet therapy were finally enrolled. During a follow-up of 5 years (interquartile range: 5.0-5.1 years), 126 (4.6%) all-cause mortalities and 74 (2.7%) cardiac mortalities were recorded. In the multivariable Cox model, CAR-H was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.634, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.121-2.380, p = 0.011) and cardiac mortality (HR: 1.733, 95% CI 1.059-2.835, p = 0.029) compared with CAR-L. When comparing the predictive value, CAR was superior to hs-CRP for all-cause mortality (area under the curve [AUC] 0.588 vs. 0.580, p = 0.002) and cardiac mortality (AUC 0.602 vs. 0.593, p = 0.004). CONCLUSION: In this real-world cohort study, a higher level of CAR was associated with worse 5-year outcomes among diabetic patients with PCI.
RESUMO
To reduce cardiovascular risk in patients with established coronary heart disease, the present study investigated the combined effect of D-dimer, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] on long-term cardiovascular outcomes from the perspectives of thrombosis, inflammation, and lipid risk simultaneously. Consecutive 10,724 patients with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled throughout 2013. Over a median follow-up of 5.1 years, each individual elevation of D-dimer, hs-CRP, and Lp(a) was associated with poor ischemic outcomes but not bleeding. Concurrent high D-dimer, hs-CRP, and Lp(a) had even greater risks of all-cause death (hazard ratio [HR] 2.714, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.742-4.231) and cardiac death (HR 4.152, 95% CI 2.207-7.812) and had incremental value beyond the traditional risk factors model. Concurrent high D-dimer, hs-CRP, and Lp(a) levels had a synergistic effect on adverse 5-year ischemic outcomes, highlighting that the potential utility of simultaneous assessment of multiple cardiovascular risk biomarkers may help to identify high-risk patients after PCI.
