Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of young acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is increasing. Return-to-work is an important indicator for patients' psycho-social recovery. However, factors influencing return-to-work after AMI are yet to be determined. OBJECTIVE To summary available evidence on rate and factors associated with return-to-work among AMI patients. METHODS The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopes and two Chinese databases (CNKI and VIP) were searched from inception to October 3, 2023. Pooled rate of return-to-work (%) and odds ratio (OR) were calculated with Stata 17 software. RESULTS Of 2403 records screened, 19 studies were included. Pooled rate of return-to-work at 3, 6, 12, and 24 and above months after AMI was 74%, 87%, 87%, 80% respectively. Factors associated with lower rate of return-to-work were comorbidity of diabetes (OR = 0.65; 95% CI, 0.46-0.93), history of heart failure (OR = 0.43; 95% CI, 0.23-0.80), manual labor (OR = 0.51; 95% CI, 0.35-0.76) and depression (OR = 0.59; 95% CI, 0.37-0.93). Male (OR = 1.42; 95% CI, 1.09-1.85) and higher education level (OR = 1.45; 95% CI, 1.25-1.69) were protective factors. Age, marital status and smoking were not significantly associated with return-to-work. CONCLUSIONS More than half of patients could return to work at 3-month post-AMI, return-to-work rate was increased during one-year post-AMI followed by a decrease. Comorbidity of diabetes, history of heart failure, manual labor and depression were negative predictors of return-to-work, while male and higher education level were protective factors. This would assist the professionals to identify the patient who was risk for unable to return-to-work and provide support for AMI patents.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a severe complication after valve surgery, with no uniform standard for early identification. We developed interpretative machine learning (ML) models for predicting LCOS risk preoperatively and 0.5 h postoperatively for intervention in advance. METHODS A total of 2218 patients undergoing valve surgery from June 2019 to Dec 2021 were finally enrolled to construct preoperative and postoperative models. Logistic regression, support vector machine (SVM), random forest classifier, extreme gradient boosting, and deep neural network were executed for model construction, and the performance of models was evaluated by area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic and calibration curves. Our models were interpreted through SHapley Additive exPlanations, and presented as an online tool to improve clinical operability. RESULTS The SVM algorithm was chosen for modeling due to better AUC and calibration capability. The AUCs of the preoperative and postoperative models were 0.786 (95% CI 0.729-0.843) and 0.863 (95% CI 0.824-0.902), and the Brier scores were 0.123 and 0.107. Our models have higher timeliness and interpretability, and wider coverage than the vasoactive-inotropic score, and the AUC of the postoperative model was significantly higher. Our preoperative and postoperative models are available online at http://njfh-yxb.com.cn:2022/lcos. CONCLUSIONS The first interpretable ML tool with two prediction periods for online early prediction of LCOS risk after valve surgery was successfully built in this study, in which the SVM model has the best performance, reserving enough time for early precise intervention in critical care.

Plasma hsa-miR-22-3p Might Serve as an Early Predictor of Ventricular Function Recovery after ST-Elevation Acute Myocardial Infarction. Biomedicines 2023; 11:2289.

Abstract
Left ventricle remodeling (LVR) after acute myocardial infarction (aMI) leads to impairment of both systolic and diastolic function, a major contributor to heart failure (HF). Despite extensive research, predicting post-aMI LVR and HF is still a challenge. Several circulant microRNAs have been proposed as LVR predictors; however, their clinical value is controversial. Here, we used real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) to quantify hsa-miR-22-3p (miR-22) plasma levels on the first day of hospital admission of ST-elevation aMI (STEMI) patients. We analyzed miR-22 correlation to the patients' clinical and paraclinical variables and evaluated its ability to discriminate between post-aMI LVR and non-LVR. We show that miR-22 is an excellent aMI discriminator and can distinguish between LVR and non-LVR patients. The discriminative performance of miR-22 significantly improves the predictive power of a multiple logistic regression model based on four continuous variables (baseline ejection fraction and end-diastolic volume, CK-MB, and troponin). Furthermore, we found that diabetes mellitus, hematocrit level, and the number of erythrocytes significantly influence its levels. These data suggest that miR-22 might be used as a predictor of ventricular function recovery in STEMI patients.

Influencing factors and prognostic value of left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with complete occlusion of the left anterior descending artery reperfused by primary percutaneous coronary intervention. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:344. [PMID: 37430213 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03341-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 06/10/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to perform a retrospective analysis of patients with acute anterior wall ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (AAW-STEMI) whose left anterior descending (LAD) artery was completely occluded and reperfused by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) and to determine the influencing factors and prognostic value of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) in the acute phase of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS A total of 304 patients with AAW-STEMI were selected. The selected patients were divided into two groups: the preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (pLVEF) group (LVEF ≥ 50%, n = 185) and the reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (rLVEF) group (LVEF < 50%, n = 119). The influencing factors of LVSD and their predictive value for LVSD were analyzed. Patients were followed up by examining outpatient records and via telephone. The predictive value of LVSD for the cardiovascular mortality of patients with AAW-STEMI was analyzed. RESULTS Age, heart rate (HR) at admission, number of ST-segment elevation leads (STELs), peak creatine kinase (CK) and symptom to wire-crossing (STW) time were independent risk factors for LVSD (P < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that the peak CK had the strongest predictive value for LVSD, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.742 (CI, 0.687 to 0.797) as the outcome. At a median follow-up of 47 months (interquartile range, 27 to 64 months), the Kaplan‒Meier survival curves up to 6-year follow-up revealed a total of 8 patients succumbed to cardiovascular disease, with 7 (6.54%) in the rLVEF group and 1 (0.56%) in the pLVEF group, respectively (hazard ratio: 12.11, [P = 0.02]). Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis demonstrated that rLVEF was an independent risk predictor of cardiovascular death in patients with AAW-STEMI discharged after PPCI (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Age, HR at admission, number of STELs, peak CK, and STW time may be used to identify patients with a high risk of heart failure (HF) in a timely manner and initiate early standard therapy for incident LVSD in the acute phase of AAW-STEMI reperfused by PPCI. A trend toward increased cardiovascular mortality at follow-up was significantly linked to LVSD.

Abstract
AIM To assess the joint prognostic value of periprocedural dynamics of the left ventricular ejection fraction (PPD of LVEF) and subclinical pulmonary congestion during lung stress ultrasound in patients with first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in relation to the development of heart failure (HF) in the postinfarction period. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our prospective, single-centre, observational study included 105 patients with a first MI with no HF in the anamnesis and successful PCI. All patients underwent standard clinical and laboratory tests, NT-proBNP level assessment, echocardiography, lung stress ultrasound with a 6-minute walk test. All patients had no clinical signs of heart failure at admission and at discharge. Criteria for PPD of LV EF: improvement in LV EF≥50%; ∆LV EF more than 5%, but LV EF<50%. According to the results of lung stress ultrasound, pulmonary congestion was diagnosed: mild (2-4 B-lines), moderate (5-9 B-lines) and severe (≥10 B-lines). The end point was hospitalization for HF for 2.5 years. RESULTS Upon admission, LV EF of 50% or more was registered in 45 patients (42.9%). Positive PPD was registered in 31 (29.5%) patients. After stress ultrasound of the lungs, 20 (19%) patients had mild subclinical pulmonary congestion, 38 (36%) moderate and 47 (45%) severe according to the criteria presented. During the observation period, patients with no PPD of LVEF were significantly more likely to be hospitalized for the development of HF (in 44.4% of cases) compared with patients with positive PPD (in 15.2% of cases) and with initial LV EF≥50% (in 13.4% of cases; p=0.005). When performing logistic regression analysis, the best predictive ability was found in the combination of the absence of PPD of LV EF and the sum of B-lines ≥10 on exercise (relative risk 7.45; 95% confidence interval 2.55-21.79; p<0.000). CONCLUSION Evaluation of the combination of PPD of LV EF and the results of stress lung ultrasound at discharge in patients with first AMI and successful PCI with no HF in anamnesis allows us to identify a high-risk group for the development of HF in the postinfarction period.

Abstract
Aim. To assess periprocedural dynamics of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with first acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) without heart failure (HF) in the medical history, as well as its prognostic value in the development of cardiovascular complications in the postinfarction period.Materials and methods. A prospective, single-center observational study included 131 patients with first AMI without HF in the past medical history and successful PCI. LVEF was assessed before PCI at admission and before discharge. In patients with reduced baseline LVEF of less than 50%, the criteria for its periprocedural improvement were chosen: 1) LVEF ≥ 50%; 2) ΔLVEF of more than 5%, but EF < 50%. The endpoints were hospitalization for the development of HF and death from cardiovascular disease in combination with the development of HF. The average follow-up period was 2.5 years.Results. At admission, LVEF was < 50% in 74 (56.5%) patients. At discharge, according to the criteria for LVEF improvement, the proportion of patients in this group was 40.5 and 14.9%, respectively. In 44.6% of cases, no increase in LVEF was noted. The predictors of the absence of periprocedural dynamics in LFEF included impaired regional contractility index > 1.94, left ventricular end-systolic volume > 57 ml, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter > 5.1 cm, pulmonary artery systolic pressure >27 mm Hg, NT-proBNP > 530 pg / ml, and E / A ratio > 1.06. During the follow-up period, 28 (21.4%) patients were hospitalized for the development of HF, 33 (25.2%) patients had a combined endpoint. The absence of periprocedural improvement in left ventricular contractility was independently associated with higher odds of hospitalization for HF (relative risk (RR) 3.5; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.63–7.55; p = 0.001) and the combined endpoint (RR 2.6; 95% CI 1.28–5.48; p = 0.009) in the postinfarction period.Conclusion. In patients with first AMI and left ventricular systolic dysfunction, periprocedural evaluation of LVEF is reasonable to stratify the risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes.

The influence of pressure injury risk on the association between left ventricular ejection fraction and all-cause mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction 80 years or older. World J Emerg Med 2023; 14:112-121.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to investigate whether the pressure injury risk mediates the association of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) with all-cause death in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) aged 80 years or older. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included 677 patients with AMI aged 80 years or older from a tertiary-level hospital. Pressure injury risk was assessed using the Braden scale at admission, and three risk groups (low/minimal, intermediate, high) were defined according to the overall score of six different variables. LVEF was measured during the index hospitalization for AMI. All-cause death after hospital discharge was the primary outcome. RESULTS Over a median follow-up period of 1,176 d (interquartile range [IQR], 722-1,900 d), 226 (33.4%) patients died. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that reduced LVEF was associated with an increased risk of all-cause death only in the high-risk group of pressure injury (adjusted hazard ratios [HR]=1.81, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03-3.20; P=0.040), but not in the low/minimal- (adjusted HR=1.29, 95%CI: 0.80-2.11; P=0.299) or intermediate-risk groups (adjusted HR=1.14, 95%CI: 0.65-2.02; P=0.651). Significant interactions were detected between pressure injury risk and LVEF (adjusted P=0.003). The cubic spline with hazard ratio plot revealed a distinct shaped curve relation between LVEF and all-cause death among different pressure injury risk groups. CONCLUSIONS In older patients with AMI, the risk of pressure injury mediated the association between LVEF and all-cause death. The classification of older patients for both therapy and prognosis assessment appears to be improved by the incorporation of pressure injury risk assessment into AMI care management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) is an independent predictor of adverse outcomes after myocardial infarction (MI). However, current data on trajectories and determinants of EF are scarce. The present study aimed to describe the epidemiology of EF after MI. METHODS Data from a single-center prospectively-designed registry of consecutive patients hospitalized at a large tertiary cardiology center were utilized. RESULTS Out of 1,593 patients in the registry, 1,065 were hospitalized for MI type I (65.4% STEMI) and had no previous history of heart failure or MI. At discharge, EF < 40% was present in 238 (22.3%), EF 40-50% in 326 (30.6%) and EF > 50% in 501 (47.0%). Patients with EF < 40% were often those who suffered subacute and anterior STEMI, had higher heart rate at admission and higher maximal troponin level, and had more often HF signs requiring intravenous diuretics. Among subjects with EF < 40%, the follow-up EF was available in 166 (80% of eligible). Systolic function recovered to EF > 50% in 39 (23.1%), slightly improved to EF 40-50% in 44 (26.0%) and remained below 40% in 86 (50.9%). Systolic function improvement to EF > 40% was predicted by lower severity of coronary atherosclerosis, lower leukocyte count, and the absence of atrial fibrillation. CONCLUSIONS Despite recent improvements in in-hospital MI care, one in five patients has systolic dysfunction at hospital discharge. Out of these, EF improves in 51%, and full recovery is observed in 23%. The severity of coronary atherosclerosis, inflammatory response to MI, and atrial fibrillation may affect EF recovery.

Abstract
AIMS Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition reduces the risk of hospitalization for heart failure and for death in patients with symptomatic heart failure. However, trials investigating the effects of this drug class in patients following acute myocardial infarction are lacking. METHODS AND RESULTS In this academic, multicentre, double-blind trial, patients (n = 476) with acute myocardial infarction accompanied by a large creatine kinase elevation (>800 IU/L) were randomly assigned to empagliflozin 10 mg or matching placebo once daily within 72 h of percutaneous coronary intervention. The primary outcome was the N-terminal pro-hormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) change over 26 weeks. Secondary outcomes included changes in echocardiographic parameters. Baseline median (interquartile range) NT-proBNP was 1294 (757-2246) pg/mL. NT-proBNP reduction was significantly greater in the empagliflozin group, compared with placebo, being 15% lower [95% confidence interval (CI) -4.4% to -23.6%] after adjusting for baseline NT-proBNP, sex, and diabetes status (P = 0.026). Absolute left-ventricular ejection fraction improvement was significantly greater (1.5%, 95% CI 0.2-2.9%, P = 0.029), mean E/e' reduction was 6.8% (95% CI 1.3-11.3%, P = 0.015) greater, and left-ventricular end-systolic and end-diastolic volumes were lower by 7.5 mL (95% CI 3.4-11.5 mL, P = 0.0003) and 9.7 mL (95% CI 3.7-15.7 mL, P = 0.0015), respectively, in the empagliflozin group, compared with placebo. Seven patients were hospitalized for heart failure (three in the empagliflozin group). Other predefined serious adverse events were rare and did not differ significantly between groups. CONCLUSION In patients with a recent myocardial infarction, empagliflozin was associated with a significantly greater NT-proBNP reduction over 26 weeks, accompanied by a significant improvement in echocardiographic functional and structural parameters.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate improves outcome of no-reflow acute myocardial infarction via sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1. ESC Heart Fail 2022; 10:334-341. [PMID: 36217778 PMCID: PMC9871711 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Revised: 09/03/2022] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Therapeutic options targeting post-ischaemic cardiac remodelling are sparse. The bioactive sphingolipid sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) reduces ischaemia/reperfusion injury. However, its impact on post-ischaemic remodelling independently of its infarct size (IS)-reducing effect is yet unknown and was addressed in this study. METHODS AND RESULTS Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in mice was induced by permanent ligation of the left anterior descending artery (LAD). C57Bl6 were treated with the S1P lyase inhibitor 4-deoxypyridoxine (DOP) starting 7 days prior to AMI to increase endogenous S1P concentrations. Cardiac function and myocardial healing were assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI), murine echocardiography, histomorphology, and gene expression analysis. DOP effects were investigated in cardiomyocyte-specific S1P receptor 1 deficient (S1PR1 Cardio Cre+) and Cre- control mice and S1P concentrations measured by LC-MS/MS. IS and cardiac function did not differ between control and DOP-treated groups on day one after LAD-ligation despite fourfold increase in plasma S1P. In contrast, cardiac function was clearly improved and myocardial scar size reduced, respectively, on Day 21 in DOP-treated mice. The latter also exhibited smaller cardiomyocyte size and reduced embryonic gene expression. The benefit of DOP treatment was abolished in S1PR1 Cardio Cre+. CONCLUSIONS S1P improves cardiac function and myocardial healing post AMI independently of initial infarct size and accomplishes this via the cardiomyocyte S1PR1. Hence, in addition to its beneficial effects on I/R injury, S1PR1 may be a promising target in post-infarction myocardial remodelling as adjunctive therapy to revascularization as well as in patients not eligible for standard interventional procedures.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 10:912562. [PMID: 36032710 PMCID: PMC9403312 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.912562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a serious threat to people’s life and health, which is significantly hindered by effective treatment formulations. Interestingly, our recent endeavour of designing selenium-containing polymeric hydrogel has been experimentally proved to be helpful in combating inflammatory responses and treating MI. The design was inspired by selenium with anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrosis activities, and the formulation could also serve as a support of myocardial tissue upon the failure of this function. In details, an injectable selenium-containing polymeric hydrogel, namely, poly[di-(1-hydroxylyndecyl) selenide/polypropylene glycol/polyethylene glycol urethane] [poly(DH-SE/PEG/PPG urethane)], was synthesised by combining a thermosensitive PPG block, DH-Se (which has oxidation-reduction properties), and hydrophilic PEG segments. Based on the established mouse model of MI, this formulation was experimentally validated to effectively promote the recovery of cardiac function. At the same time, we confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Masson staining and Western blotting that this formulation could inhibit inflammation and fibrosis, so as to significantly improve left ventricular remodelling. In summary, a selenium-containing polymeric hydrogel formulation analysed in the current study could be a promising therapeutic formulation, which can provide new strategies towards the effective treatment of myocardial infarction or even other inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Despite diagnostic and therapeutic advancements in cardiovascular medicine, myocardial infarction (MI) remains a major cause of adverse outcomes in younger MI patients, i.e., those who are aged 55 years or younger. Traditional cardiovascular risk factors have not often been emphasized in the management of younger MI patients. However, plaque rupture or erosion, which is deeply related to cardiovascular risk factors, remains the most common etiology of MI even in younger patients. The global increase in the prevalence of obesity underscores the clinical importance of metabolic syndrome (MetS), i.e., obesity-associated cardiovascular risk factors, dyslipidemia, diabetes mellitus and particularly hypertension, in younger people. The concept of "lifetime risk" of cardiovascular disease reinforces the need for prevention or treatment of MetS. This review focuses on the risk factors related to MetS and an overall understanding of recent profiles of younger MI patients. We hope that this review will aid in the primary prevention of MetS-related risk factors and the prevention of cardiovascular disease, particularly MI, in younger patients.

Abstract
Background There is little evidence on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) trajectories after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aim We aim to identify the LVEF trajectories after STEMI and explore their predictors and association with prognosis. Methods This is a retrospective, observational study of STEMI patients. The LVEF trajectories were identified by the latent class trajectory model in patients with baseline LVEF < 50%. We used logistic regression analysis to investigate the predictors for LVEF trajectories. The Cox proportional hazard model was used to assess the impact of LVEF trajectories on prognosis. The primary outcomes were cardiovascular mortality and heart failure (HF) rehospitalization. Results 572 of 1179 patients presented with baseline normal LVEF (≥ 50%) and 607 with baseline reduced LVEF (< 50%). Two distinct LVEF trajectories were identified in patients with baseline reduced LVEF: recovered LVEF group and persistently reduced LVEF group. Higher baseline LVEF, lower peak troponin T, non-anterior MI, and lower heart rates were all found to be independently associated with LVEF recovery. After multivariate adjustments, patients with persistently reduced LVEF experienced an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality (HR 7.49, 95% CI 1.94–28.87, P = 0.003) and HF rehospitalization (HR 3.54, 95% CI 1.56–8.06 P = 0.003) compared to patients with baseline normal LVEF. Patients with recovered LVEF, on the other hand, showed no significant risk of cardiovascular mortality and HF rehospitalization. Conclusion Our study indicated two distinct LVEF trajectories after STEMI and that the persistently reduced LVEF trajectory was related to poor prognosis. In addition, several baseline characteristics can predict LVEF recovery. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s40520-022-02087-y.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease, particularly myocardial infarction, remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality among young individuals. Although myocardial infarctions have declined significantly in the general population, this decline has not been uniformly observed in younger cohorts. Young adults often have different risk factors, including a higher burden of tobacco use and substance abuse, and they are less likely to be treated with preventive therapies since they are often categorized as having low risk. This review examines the existing literature on myocardial infarction in young patients, with a focus on risk factors, therapeutic challenges, and opportunities for prevention.

Abstract
La enfermedad cardiovascular persiste como primera causa mundial de muerte en los adultos. La población de adultos jóvenes ha cursado con cambios en el estilo de vida con el paso de las décadas, favoreciendo la aparición de ateroesclerosis en etapas más tempranas y como consecuencia la aparición de eventos cardiovasculares de manera más prematura. Se ha identificado que dentro de los factores de riesgo más comunes, la mayoría de ellos son potencialmente modificables. En comparación con adultos mayores, se ha identificado con mayor prevalencia la presencia de etiologías no ateroescleróticas de infarto de miocardio, como la disección coronaria espontánea, alteraciones anatómicas, embolia y espasmo coronarios. Los hallazgos angiográficos y desenlaces son diferentes de acuerdo con el grupo de edad y el sexo. Por dicho motivo realizamos una búsqueda en PubMed de los estudios y registros publicados para el estudio del infarto agudo de miocardio en paciente jóvenes. Con dicha información realizamos la presente revisión con el objetivo de una mejor comprensión de los hallazgos comunes en este grupo y realizar su comparación con grupos de mayor edad.

Abstract
AIMS Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) recovery after an ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) identifies a group of patients with a better prognosis. However, the association between long-term outcomes and LVEF recovery among patients with STEMI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not yet been well investigated. Our study aims to detect differences in long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality between patients who recover LVEF at 1-year post-PCI and those who do not, and search for predictors of LVEF recovery. METHODS AND RESULTS This is a retrospective, single-centre study of 2170 consecutive patients admitted for STEMI in which primary PCI is performed. LVEF was determined at admission and at 1-year follow-up. The primary outcomes were long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Among the 2168 patients with baseline LVEF data, 822 (38%) had a LVEF < 50% and 1346 (62%) ≥ 50%. Among those with LVEF < 50%, LVEF data at 1-year were available in 554, and 299 (54.0%) presented with complete recovery (LVEF ≥ 50%). LVEF recovery was associated with a reduction in long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality (P < 0.0001). Female sex, treatment with ACEIs, lower creatinine levels, infarct-related artery different from the left main or left anterior descendent artery, and absence of prior ischaemic heart disease were independently associated with LVEF recovery. CONCLUSIONS Nearly 40% of patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI presented with LVEF depression at hospital admission. Among them, LVEF recovery at 1-year occurred in more than 50% and was independently associated with a significant decrease in long-term all-cause and cardiovascular mortality.

Magnetic Resonance Assessment of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction at Any Time Post-Infarction for Prediction of Subsequent Events in a Large Multicenter STEMI Registry. J Magn Reson Imaging 2021; 56:476-487. [PMID: 34137478 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.27789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2021] [Revised: 06/03/2021] [Accepted: 06/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most accurate imaging technique for left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) quantification, but as yet the prognostic value of LVEF assessment at any time after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) for subsequent major adverse cardiac event (MACE) prediction is uncertain. PURPOSE To explore the prognostic impact of MRI-derived LVEF at any time post-STEMI to predict subsequent MACE (cardiovascular death or re-admission for acute heart failure). STUDY TYPE Prospective. POPULATION One thousand thirteen STEMI patients were included in a multicenter registry. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 1.5-T. Balanced steady-state free precession (cine imaging) and segmented inversion recovery steady-state free precession (late gadolinium enhancement) sequences. ASSESSMENT Post-infarction MRI-derived LVEF (reduced [r]: <40%; mid-range [mr]: 40%-49%; preserved [p]: ≥50%) was sequentially quantified at 1 week and after >3 months of follow-up. STATISTICAL TESTS Multi-state Markov model to determine the prognostic value of each LVEF state (r-, mr- or p-) at any time point assessed to predict subsequent MACE. A P-value <0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. RESULTS During a 6.2-year median follow-up, 105 MACE (10%) were registered. Transitions toward improved LVEF predominated and only r-LVEF (at any time assessed) was significantly related to a higher incidence of subsequent MACE. The observed transitions from r-LVEF, mr-LVEF, and p-LVEF states to MACE were: 15.3%, 6%, and 6.7%, respectively. Regarding the adjusted transition intensity ratios, patients in r-LVEF state were 4.52-fold more likely than those in mr-LVEF state and 5.01-fold more likely than those in p-LVEF state to move to MACE state. Nevertheless, no significant differences were found in transitions from mr-LVEF and p-LVEF states to MACE state (P-value = 0.6). DATA CONCLUSION LVEF is an important MRI index for simple and dynamic post-STEMI risk stratification. Detection of r-LVEF by MRI at any time during follow-up identifies a subset of patients at high risk of subsequent events. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY STAGE: 2.

Left ventricular function recovery after ST-elevation myocardial infarction: correlates and outcomes. Clin Res Cardiol 2021; 110:1504-1515. [PMID: 34091698 DOI: 10.1007/s00392-021-01887-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Contemporary data on left ventricular function (LVF) recovery in patients with left ventricular dysfunction after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are scarce and to date, no comparison has been made with patients with a baseline normal LVF. This study examined predictors of LVF recovery and its relation to outcomes in STEMI. METHODS Patients presenting with STEMI between January 2010 and December 2016 were categorized in three groups after 3 months according to left ventricular ejection fraction (EF): (i) baseline normal LVF (EF ≥ 50% at baseline); (ii) recovered LVF (EF < 50% at baseline and ≥ 50% after 3 months); and (iii) reduced LVF (EF < 50% at baseline and after 3 months). Heart failure hospitalization, all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality were compared between the three groups. RESULTS Of 577 patients, 341 (59%) patients had a baseline normal LVF, 112 (19%) had a recovered LVF and 124 (22%) had a reduced LVF. Independent correlates of LVF recovery were higher baseline EF, lower peak troponin and cardiac arrest. After median 5.8 years, there was no difference in outcomes between patients with LVF recovery and baseline normal LVF. In contrast, even after multivariate adjustment, patients with persistently reduced LVF had a higher risk for heart failure hospitalization (HR 5.00; 95% CI 2.17-11.46) and all-cause mortality (HR 1.87; 95% CI 1.11-3.16). CONCLUSION In contemporary treated STEMI patients, prognosis is significantly worse in those with a persistently reduced LVF after 3 months, compared with patients with a baseline normal LVF and those with LVF recovery.

Prognostic implications of left ventricular myocardial work index in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction. Eur Heart J Cardiovasc Imaging 2021; 23:699-707. [PMID: 33993227 DOI: 10.1093/ehjci/jeab096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to determine whether lower values of left ventricular (LV) global work index (GWI) at baseline were associated with a reduction in LV functional recovery and poorer long-term prognosis in patients with reduced LV ejection fraction (LVEF ≤40%) following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 197 individuals (62 ± 12 years, 75% male) with STEMI treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention and reduced LVEF were evaluated. All patients were followed up for the occurrence of all-cause mortality and the presence of LVEF normalization at 6 months (LVEF ≥50%). The median LVEF was 36% (interquartile range 32-38) and the mean value of LV GWI was 1041 ± 404 mmHg% at baseline. At 6-month follow-up, 41% of patients had normalized LVEF. On multivariable logistic regression, higher values of LV GWI were independently associated with LVEF normalization at 6 months of follow-up (odds ratio 1.32 per 250 mmHg%, P = 0.038). Over a median follow-up of 112 months, 40 patients (20%) died. LV GWI <750 mmHg% was independently associated with all-cause mortality (HR 3.85, P < 0.001) and was incremental to LV global longitudinal strain (P = 0.039) and LVEF (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION In individuals with an LVEF ≤40% following STEMI, higher values of LV GWI were associated with a greater probability of LVEF normalization at 6-month follow-up. In addition, lower values of LV GWI were independently associated with increased all-cause mortality at long-term follow-up, providing incremental prognostic value over LVEF and minor incremental prognostic value over LV global longitudinal strain.

Abstract
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is increasing among young adults. We aimed to describe the cardiovascular risk factors and long-term prognosis of premature CAD. Methods and Results Using the Duke Databank for Cardiovascular Disease, we evaluated 3655 patients admitted between 1995 and 2013 with a first diagnosis of obstructive CAD before the age of 50 years. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as the composite of death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or revascularization, were ascertained for up to 10 years. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to assess associations with the rate of first recurrent event, and negative binomial log-linear regression was used for rate of multiple event recurrences. Past or current smoking was the most frequent cardiovascular factor (60.8%), followed by hypertension (52.8%) and family history of CAD (39.8%). Within a 10-year follow-up, 52.9% of patients had at least 1 MACE, 18.6% had at least 2 recurrent MACEs, and 7.9% had at least 3 recurrent MACEs, with death occurring in 20.9% of patients. Across follow-up, 31.7% to 37.2% of patients continued smoking, 81.7% to 89.3% had low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels beyond the goal of 70 mg/dL, and 16% had new-onset diabetes mellitus. Female sex, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, multivessel disease, and chronic inflammatory disease were factors associated with recurrent MACEs. Conclusions Premature CAD is an aggressive disease with frequent ischemic recurrences and premature death. Individuals with premature CAD have a high proportion of modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, but failure to control them is frequently observed.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In recent decades, the incidence of myocardial infarction (MI) has declined among the general population. However, MI rates in the young have not decreased as much as has been observed among older individuals. This review will focus on recent trends of MI in young patients, factors that may account for these trends, and implications for future prevention. RECENT FINDINGS MI rates in young patients, particularly in women, have not decreased in the same fashion as they have for their older counterparts, with some studies reporting an increase. The reasons for these findings include underestimation of cardiovascular risk, and accordingly treatment, in the young, as well as an increasing prevalence of risk factors such as obesity and diabetes. SUMMARY Better recognition and treatment of cardiovascular risk factors among young adults may improve outcomes. There is a need for improved methods to assess and treat cardiovascular risk in young individuals.
