Abstract
ABSTRACT Pretreatment with an oral P2Y12 receptor blocker (before coronary angiography) versus treatment in the catheterization laboratory has been a matter of debate in patients presenting with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). The primary aim of this study was to assess the impact of an immediate preloading strategy with ticagrelor on periprocedural myocardial injury in patients with NSTEMI treated with an early invasive strategy. NSTEMI patients who underwent coronary angiography and subsequent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 24 hours after hospital admission were divided into 2 groups: the first group (pretreatment group) included patients who received ticagrelor pretreatment as soon as possible after admission and the second group (no pretreatment group) included patients who received a loading dose of ticagrelor after coronary angiography. The pretreatment group included 232 patients, and the no pretreatment group included 87 patients. Male patients represented the majority of the patients. The 2 groups were similar in baseline characteristics, except for a greater incidence of hypertension ( P = 0.014) and higher hemoglobin levels ( P = 0.01) in the pretreatment group in comparison with the no pretreatment group. Patients in the ticagrelor pretreatment group had less myocardial injury until coronary angiography based on troponin measurements collected at 12 hours after admission ( P = 0.025). Patients in the ticagrelor pretreatment group also had fewer periprocedural myocardial injuries based on troponin measurements taken between 12 and 24 hours after the PCI ( P = 0.026 and P = 0.022, respectively). Our findings suggested that ticagrelor pretreatment reduces periprocedural myocardial injury in NSTEMI patients who underwent PCI within 24 hours after admission.

Abstract
AIMS To analyse the association of myocardial oedema (ME), observed as high T2 signal intensity (HT2) in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, with the release of cardiac biomarkers, ventricular ejection, and clinical outcomes after revascularization. METHODS AND RESULTS Patients with stable coronary artery disease with the indication for revascularization were included. Biomarker levels [troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase MB (CK-MB)] and T2-weighted and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) images were obtained before and after the percutaneous or surgical revascularization procedures. The association of HT2 with the levels of biomarkers, with and without LGE, evolution of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and 5-year clinical outcomes were assessed. A total of 196 patients were divided into 2 groups: Group 1 (HT2, 40) and Group 2 (no HT2, 156). Both peak cTnI (8.9 and 1.6 ng/mL) and peak CK-MB values (44.7 and 12.1 ng/mL) were significantly higher in Group 1. Based on the presence of new LGE, patients were stratified into Groups A (no HT2/LGE, 149), B (HT2, 9), C (LGE, 7), and D (both HT2/LGE, 31). The peak cTnI and CK-MB values were 1.5 and 12.0, 5.4 and 44.7, 5.0 and 18.3, and 9.8 and 42.8 ng/mL in Groups A, B, C, and D, respectively, and were significantly different. The average LVEF decreased by 4.4% in Group 1 and increased by 2.2% in Group 2 (P = 0.057). CONCLUSION ME after revascularization procedures was associated with increased release of cardiac necrosis biomarkers, and a trend towards a difference in LVEF, indicating a role of ME in cardiac injury after interventions.

Abstract
Acute postoperative myocardial ischemia (PMI) after cardiac surgery is an infrequent event that can evolve rapidly and become a potentially life-threatening complication. Multiple factors are associated with acute PMI after cardiac surgery and may vary by the type of surgical procedure performed. Although the criteria defining nonprocedural myocardial ischemia are well established, there are no universally accepted criteria for the diagnosis of acute PMI. In addition, current evidence on the management of acute PMI after cardiac surgery is sparse and generally of low methodological quality. Once acute PMI is suspected, prompt diagnosis and treatment are imperative, and options range from conservative strategies to percutaneous coronary intervention and redo coronary artery bypass grafting. In this document, a multidisciplinary group including experts in cardiac surgery, cardiology, anesthesiology, and postoperative care summarizes the existing evidence on diagnosis and treatment of acute PMI and provides clinical guidance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Composite endpoints are pivotal when assessing rare outcomes over relatively short follow-ups. Most randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation to optimal medical therapy (OMT) in chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) patients included both hard and soft outcomes in their primary endpoint, with periprocedural myocardial infarctions (MIs) systematically allocated to the PCI arm. We meta-analyzed the above RCTs for composite hard endpoints, with and without periprocedural MIs. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION This study is registered in PROSPERO CRD42020166754 and follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses and Cochrane Collaboration reporting. Patients had inducible ischemia, no left main disease nor severe left ventricular dysfunction. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Six RCTs involving 10,751 patients followed for a mean of 4.4 years were included. PCI+OMT versus OMT alone was associated with no difference in the two co-primary composite endpoints of all-cause death/MI/stroke and cardiovascular death/MI including all-MIs (IRR 0.99; 95% CI 0.90-1.08 and IRR 0.95; 95% CI 0.83-1.08 respectively). After inclusion of spontaneous rather than all-MIs (i.e., excluding periprocedural MIs), the odds showed benefit of PCI+OMT for both co-primary endpoints (IRR 0.88; 95% CI 0.80-0.97, P<0.01 and IRR 0.81; 95% CI 0.69-0.95, P=0.01 respectively) with numbers needed to treat of 42 in both cases. CONCLUSIONS Among CCS patients with inducible myocardial ischemia without severely reduced ejection fraction or left main disease, adding PCI to OMT reduces hard composite outcomes only after exclusion of periprocedural MIs. Continued efforts to define periprocedural MIs reproducibly, to assess their prognostic relevance and to prevent them are warranted.

Abstract
The use of biomarkers is undisputed in the diagnosis of primary myocardial infarction (MI), but their value for identifying MI is less well studied in the postoperative phase following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). To identify patients with periprocedural MI (PMI), several conflicting definitions of PMI have been proposed, relying either on cardiac troponin (cTn) or the MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase, with or without supporting evidence of ischaemia. However, CABG inherently induces the release of cardiac biomarkers, as reflected by significant cTn concentrations in patients with uncomplicated postoperative courses. Still, the underlying (patho)physiological release mechanisms of cTn are incompletely understood, complicating adequate interpretation of postoperative increases in cTn concentrations. Therefore, the aim of the current review is to present these potential underlying mechanisms of cTn release in general, and following CABG in particular (Graphical Abstract). Based on these mechanisms, dissimilarities in the release of cTnI and cTnT are discussed, with potentially important implications for clinical practice. Consequently, currently proposed cTn biomarker cut-offs by the prevailing definitions of PMI might warrant re-assessment, with differentiation in cut-offs for the separate available assays and surgical strategies. To resolve these issues, future prospective studies are warranted to determine the prognostic influence of biomarker release in general and PMI in particular.

Abstract
Patients with ischaemic left ventricular dysfunction frequently undergo myocardial viability testing. The historical model presumes that those who have extensive areas of dysfunctional-yet-viable myocardium derive particular benefit from revascularization, whilst those without extensive viability do not. These suppositions rely on the theory of hibernation and are based on data of low quality: taking a dogmatic approach may therefore lead to patients being refused appropriate, prognostically important treatment. Recent data from a sub-study of the randomized STICH trial challenges these historical concepts, as the volume of viable myocardium failed to predict the effectiveness of coronary artery bypass grafting. Should the Heart Team now abandon viability testing, or are new paradigms needed in the way we interpret viability? This state-of-the-art review critically examines the evidence base for viability testing, focusing in particular on the presumed interactions between viability, functional recovery, revascularization and prognosis which underly the traditional model. We consider whether viability should relate solely to dysfunctional myocardium or be considered more broadly and explore wider uses of viability testingoutside of revascularization decision-making. Finally, we look forward to ongoing and future randomized trials, which will shape evidence-based clinical practice in the future.

Abstract
Mechanical stress from haemodynamic perturbations or interventional manipulation of epicardial coronary atherosclerotic plaques with inflammatory destabilization can release particulate debris, thrombotic material and soluble substances into the coronary circulation. The physical material obstructs the coronary microcirculation, whereas the soluble substances induce endothelial dysfunction and facilitate vasoconstriction. Coronary microvascular obstruction and dysfunction result in patchy microinfarcts accompanied by an inflammatory reaction, both of which contribute to progressive myocardial contractile dysfunction. In clinical studies, the benefit of protection devices to retrieve atherothrombotic debris during percutaneous coronary interventions has been modest, and the treatment of microembolization has mostly relied on antiplatelet and vasodilator agents. The past 25 years have witnessed a relative proportional increase in non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction in the presentation of acute coronary syndromes. An associated increase in the incidence of plaque erosion rather than rupture has also been recognized as a key mechanism in the past decade. We propose that coronary microembolization is a decisive link between plaque erosion at the culprit lesion and the manifestation of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. In this Review, we characterize the features and mechanisms of coronary microembolization and discuss the clinical trials of drugs and devices for prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) of coronary arteries is a common finding in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). Although tremendous advances have been made in the interventional treatment of CTOs over the past decade, correct patient selection remains an important parameter for achieving optimal results. Non-invasive imaging can make a valuable contribution. Ischemia and viability, two major factors in this regard, can be displayed using echocardiography, single-photon emission tomography, positron emission tomography, computed tomography, and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Although most have been studied in patients with CAD in general, there is an increasing number of studies with positive preselectional factors for patients with CTOs. The aim of this review is to provide a structured overview of the current state of pre-interventional imaging for CTOs.

Abstract
A substantial number of chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) experience periprocedural myocardial injury or infarction. Accurate diagnosis of these PCI-related complications is required to guide further management given that their occurrence may be associated with increased risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). Due to lack of scientific data, the cut-off thresholds of post-PCI cardiac troponin (cTn) elevation used for defining periprocedural myocardial injury and infarction, have been selected based on expert consensus opinions, and their prognostic relevance remains unclear. In this Consensus Document from the ESC Working Group on Cellular Biology of the Heart and European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EAPCI), we recommend, whenever possible, the measurement of baseline (pre-PCI) cTn and post-PCI cTn values in all CCS patients undergoing PCI. We confirm the prognostic relevance of the post-PCI cTn elevation >5× 99th percentile URL threshold used to define type 4a myocardial infarction (MI). In the absence of periprocedural angiographic flow-limiting complications or electrocardiogram (ECG) and imaging evidence of new myocardial ischaemia, we propose the same post-PCI cTn cut-off threshold (>5× 99th percentile URL) be used to define prognostically relevant ‘major’ periprocedural myocardial injury. As both type 4a MI and major periprocedural myocardial injury are strong independent predictors of all-cause mortality at 1 year post-PCI, they may be used as quality metrics and surrogate endpoints for clinical trials. Further research is needed to evaluate treatment strategies for reducing the risk of major periprocedural myocardial injury, type 4a MI, and MACE in CCS patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
Endothelial dysfunction, evaluated by flow-mediated dilatation (FMD), predicts adverse cardiovascular events in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). IC is an example of repeated ischemia/reperfusion injury that may contribute to the progression of vascular disease by worsening endothelial function, a trigger for acute cardiovascular events. The predictive value of effort-induced endothelial dysfunction for cardiovascular events in patients with IC has not been studied previously. The objective of this study was to assess whether exercise-induced endothelial dysfunction is predictive of adverse cardiovascular outcome in IC. In 44 patients with IC, we measured brachial artery FMD by B-mode ultrasonography at rest and 10 minutes after a maximal treadmill exercise. Treadmill exercise halved the FMD (from 3.5 ± 0.6% to 1.45 ± 0.46%, p < 0.05). After a follow-up period of 85 (72-98) months, a total of 20 major cardiovascular events occurred. In a multivariate analysis, a post-exercise reduction of brachial FMD > 1.3% was predictive for cardiovascular events. Maximal exercise-induced endothelial dysfunction is predictive of cardiovascular events in patients with IC.

Abstract
AIMS The prognostic importance of cardiac procedural myocardial injury and myocardial infarction (MI) in chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is still debated. METHODS AND RESULTS We analysed individual data of 9081 patients undergoing elective PCI with normal pre-PCI baseline cardiac troponin (cTn) levels. Multivariate models evaluated the association between post-PCI elevations in cTn and 1-year mortality, while an interval analysis evaluated the impact of the size of the myocardial injury on mortality. Our analysis was performed in the overall population and also according to the type of cTn used [52.0% had high-sensitivity cTn (hs-cTn)]. Procedural myocardial injury, as defined by the Fourth Universal Definition of MI (UDMI) [post-PCI cTn elevation ≥1 × 99th percentile upper reference limit (URL)], occurred in 52.8% of patients and was not associated with 1-year mortality [adj odds ratio (OR), 1.35, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.84-1.77), P = 0.21]. The association between post-PCI cTn elevation and 1-year mortality was significant starting ≥3 × 99th percentile URL. Major myocardial injury defined by post-PCI ≥5 × 99th percentile URL occurred in 18.2% of patients and was associated with a two-fold increase in the adjusted odds of 1-year mortality [2.29, 95% CI (1.32-3.97), P = 0.004]. In the subset of patients for whom periprocedural evidence of ischaemia was collected (n = 2316), Type 4a MI defined by the Fourth UDMI occurred in 12.7% of patients and was strongly associated with 1-year mortality [adj OR 3.21, 95% CI (1.42-7.27), P = 0.005]. We also present our results according to the type of troponin used (hs-cTn or conventional troponin). CONCLUSION Our analysis has demonstrated that in CCS patients with normal baseline cTn levels, the post-PCI cTn elevation of ≥5 × 99th percentile URL used to define Type 4a MI is associated with 1-year mortality and could be used to detect 'major' procedural myocardial injury in the absence of procedural complications or evidence of new myocardial ischaemia.

Abstract
AIMS Cardiac biomarkers elevation is common after revascularization, even in absence of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) detection by imaging methods. Thus, late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) may be useful on PMI diagnosis and prognosis. We sought to evaluate long-term prognostic value of PMI and new LGE after revascularization. METHODS AND RESULTS Two hundred and two patients with multivessel coronary disease and preserved ventricular function who underwent elective revascularization were included, of whom 136 (67.3%) underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and 66 (32.7%) percutaneous coronary intervention. The median follow-up was 5 years (4.8-5.8 years). Cardiac biomarkers measurement and LGE-CMR were performed before and after procedures. The Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions definition was used to assess PMI. Primary endpoint was composed of death, infarction, additional revascularization, or cardiac hospitalization. Primary endpoint was observed in 29 (14.3%) patients, of whom 13 (14.9%) had PMI and 16 (13.9%) did not (P = 0.93). Thirty-six (17.8%) patients had new LGE. Twenty (12.0%) events occurred in patients without new LGE and 9 (25.2%) in patients with it (P = 0.045). LGE was also associated to increased mortality, with 4 (2.4%) and 4 (11.1%) deaths in subjects without and with it (P = 0.02). LGE was the only independent predictor of primary endpoint and mortality (P = 0.03 and P = 0.02). Median LGE mass was estimated at 4.6 g. Patients with new LGE had a greater biomarkers release (median troponin: 8.9 ng/mL vs. 1.8 ng/mL and median creatine kinase-MB: 38.0 ng/mL vs. 12.3 ng/mL; P < 0.001 in both comparisons). CONCLUSIONS New LGE was shown to be better prognostic predictor than biomarker-only PMI definition after uncomplicated revascularization. Furthermore, new LGE was the only independent predictor of cardiovascular events and mortality. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION http://www.controlled-trials.com/ISRCTN09454308.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate myocardial injury and infarction (MI) following elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND The substantially higher analytical power of high-sensitivity troponin (hsTn) assays allows detection of minor cardiac troponin (cTn) levels, which may be useful in monitoring myocardial injury and guiding therapies. METHODS Serial hsTnT measurements were conducted in patients undergoing elective PCI and were related to the extent of coronary artery disease (CAD) as reflected by the SYNTAX score risk categories and American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association classification of coronary lesions. Myocardial injury and MI were diagnosed according to the second and third versions of universal MI definition. RESULTS The study population consisted of 530 patients, who were grouped into low (41.3%), intermediate (35.4%), and high (23.3%) SYNTAX risk categories. The treated coronary lesions were classified into A 7.8%, B1 24.1%, B2 21.1%, C1 24.6%, and C2 22.4%. Postprocedural hsTnT increases correlated significantly with the complexity of treated coronary lesions (p < .05) and CAD magnitude (p < .05). Rates of MI type 4a according to the second and third MI definition criteria were 98 (27.5%) and 15 (4.2%) cases in patients with normal baseline hsTnT values (N = 357, 67.4%), as well as 137 (79.2%) and 27 (15.6%) cases in those with elevated baseline hsTnT values (N = 173, 32.6%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS After elective PCI, cTn releases correlate significantly with lesion complexity and CAD extent. Use of hsTnT assay enables precise monitoring of PCI-related myocardial injury and may identify patients at higher risk for ischemic events, who may benefit from potent platelet inhibition, which needs to be investigated in randomized trials.

Angiographic Complete versus Clinical Selective Incomplete Percutaneous Revascularization in Heart Failure Patients with Multivessel Coronary Disease. J Interv Cardiol 2020; 2020:9506124. [PMID: 32774190 PMCID: PMC7403924 DOI: 10.1155/2020/9506124] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2020] [Revised: 06/03/2020] [Accepted: 06/24/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Patients with multivessel disease (MVD) often pursue complete revascularization (CR) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to improve prognosis. However, angiographic CR is not always feasible and is associated with some procedure-related complications in heart failure (HF) patients with MVD. Clinical selective incomplete revascularization (IR) may be reasonable for these high-risk patients, but its role in long-term outcomes remains uncertain. Methods Six hundred patients with HF and MVD submitted to PCI were enrolled. Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) were defined as a composite of recurrent myocardial infarction, any revascularization, and all-cause mortality at 5 years. Results During a mean follow-up period of 3.7 ± 1.9 years, there was no significant difference in 5-year MACEs between selective IR and successful angiographic CR in HF patients with MVD. However, patients who failed CR had a significantly greater incidence of 5-year MACEs than those in the other two groups (failed CR: 46.4% vs. selective IR: 27.7% vs. successful CR: 27.8%, p < 0.001). Conclusions Long-term outcomes of selective IR were comparable with those of successful angiographic CR in HF patients with MVD. However, patients that failed CR showed 2.53-fold increased risk of MACEs compared to patients undergoing either selective IR or successful angiographic CR. A more comprehensive planning strategy should be devised before PCI in HF patients with MVD.

Yin YJ, Chen YC, Xu L, Zhao XH, Song Yang. Relationship of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2) and periprocedural myocardial injury in patients undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention. IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2020; 28:100541. [PMID: 32490148 PMCID: PMC7256635 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2020.100541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2020] [Revised: 05/12/2020] [Accepted: 05/17/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is one of the dominant methods for revascularization in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). However, periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) is a frequent complication following PCI and is known to be a predictor of postprocedural cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although several studies try to identify serum markers to predict the PMI, there is a little information about the role of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) as a predictor of PMI. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the relationship of Lp-PLA2 levels and PMI in patients undergoing elective PCI. METHODS This study included 265 consecutive patients with normal preprocedural cardiac troponin T(cTNT) who received elective PCI. The samples for cTNT were collected at 8, 16, and 24 h after PCI to assess perioperative myocardial injury. The Lp-PLA2 and other serum lipid parameters were measured after 12 fasting hours before PCI. RESULTS The data suggested that the patients with preprocedural high Lp-PLA2 were strongly and independently correlated with the risk of PMI. Pearson correlation analysis showed that preprocedural Lp-PLA2 was significantly positively correlated with postprocedural cTnT elevation (r = 0.694, p < 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of PMI, we found that Lp-PLA2 was independent risk factor for postprocedural cTnT elevation. The area under Receiver Operating Characteristic curve of Lp-PLA2 was 0.757 (95%CI 0.692 ~ 0.821, p < 0.001), the best cut-off point was 185 ng/ml, sensitivity and specificity were 65.33% and 76.32%. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrated that preprocedural Lp-PLA2 was associated with postprocedural cTnT elevation and was the independent risk factor of PMI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Severe limb ischaemia (SLI) is the end stage of peripheral arterial occlusive disease where the viability of the limb is threatened. Around 25% of patients with SLI will ultimately require a major lower limb amputation, which has a substantial adverse impact on quality of life. A newly established rapid-access vascular limb salvage clinic and modern revascularisation techniques may reduce amputation rate. The aim of this study was to investigate the 12-month amputation rate in a contemporary cohort of patients and compare this to a historical cohort. Secondary aims are to investigate the use of frailty and cognitive assessments, and cardiac MRI in risk-stratifying patients with SLI undergoing intervention and establish a biobank for future biomarker analyses. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This single-centre prospective cohort study will recruit patients aged 18-110 years presenting with SLI. Those undergoing intervention will be eligible to undergo additional venepuncture (for biomarker analysis) and/or cardiac MRI. Those aged ≥65 years and undergoing intervention will also be eligible to undergo additional frailty and cognitive assessments. Follow-up will be at 12 and 24 months and subsequently via data linkage with NHS Digital to 10 years postrecruitment. Those undergoing cardiac MRI and/or frailty assessments will receive additional follow-up during the first 12 months to investigate for perioperative myocardial infarction and frailty-related outcomes, respectively. A sample size of 420 patients will be required to detect a 10% reduction in amputation rate in comparison to a similar sized historical cohort, with 90% power and 5% type I error rate. Statistical analysis of this comparison will be by adjusted and unadjusted logistic regression analyses. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval for this study has been granted by the UK National Research Ethics Service (19/LO/0132). Results will be disseminated to participants via scientific meetings, peer-reviewed medical journals and social media. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04027244.

JACC Cardiovasc Interv 2019; 12:721-730. [PMID: 31000010 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcin.2019.01.248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2018] [Revised: 01/25/2019] [Accepted: 01/29/2019] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided revascularization compared with culprit-only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) on infarct size, left ventricular (LV), function, LV remodeling, and the presence of nonculprit infarctions. BACKGROUND Patients with STEMI with multivessel disease might have improved clinical outcomes after complete revascularization compared with PCI of the infarct-related artery only, but the impact on infarct size, LV function, and remodeling as well as the risk for periprocedural infarction are unknown. METHODS In this substudy of the DANAMI-3 (Third Danish Trial in Acute Myocardial Infarction)-PRIMULTI (Primary PCI in Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Multivessel Disease: Treatment of Culprit Lesion Only or Complete Revascularization) randomized trial, patients with STEMI with multivessel disease were randomized to receive either complete FFR-guided revascularization or PCI of the culprit vessel only. The patients underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging during index admission and at 3-month follow-up. RESULTS A total of 280 patients (136 patients with infarct-related and 144 with complete FFR-guided revascularization) were included. There were no differences in final infarct size (median 12% [interquartile range: 5% to 19%] vs. 11% [interquartile range: 4% to 18%]; p = 0.62), myocardial salvage index (median 0.71 [interquartile range: 0.54 to 0.89] vs. 0.66 [interquartile range: 0.55 to 0.87]; p = 0.49), LV ejection fraction (mean 58 ± 9% vs. 59 ± 9%; p = 0.39), and LV end-systolic volume remodeling (mean 7 ± 22 ml vs. 7 ± 19 ml; p = 0.63). New nonculprit infarction occurring after the nonculprit intervention was numerically more frequent among patients treated with complete revascularization (6 [4.5%] vs. 1 [0.8%]; p = 0.12). CONCLUSIONS Complete FFR-guided revascularization in patients with STEMI and multivessel disease did not affect final infarct size, LV function, or remodeling compared with culprit-only PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The central role of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) as the definitive risk marker of adverse outcomes in ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy is increasingly uncertain. The current study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis with the objective of evaluating the prognostic importance of Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (NICM) on the key endpoints of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality and sudden death. METHODS The study was prospectively registered in PROPSERO (CRD 42016039034). Electronic databases and reference lists were searched for studies evaluating the impact of LGE-CMR on all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, ventricular arrhythmia or sudden death, or major adverse cardiovascular events. Data were extracted from 36 studies including n=7882 patients. RESULTS LGE was strongly associated with all-cause mortality HR 2.96 (95%CI: 2.37, 3.70, P<0.001), cardiovascular mortality HR 3.27 (95% CI: 2.05, 5.22, P<0.001), ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death HR 3.76 (95% CI: 3.14, 4.52, P<0.001), and major adverse cardiovascular events HR 3.24 (95% CI: 2.32, 4.52, P<0.001). In subgroup analyses, LGE was associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in both LVEF≤35% and LVEF>35% patients (P<0.001 all endpoints), as well as in nonischemic and ischemic cardiomyopathy. CONCLUSION Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) in CMR predicts all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality, ventricular arrhythmia and sudden death, and major adverse cardiovascular events, independent of LVEF. Future trials of investigational therapies in NICM and ICM should consider the utilization of LGE to identify patients at risk of adverse outcomes.

Abstract
One of the unmet clinical needs in heart surgery is the prevention of myocardial stunning and necrosis that occurs as a result of ischemia-reperfusion. Myocardial stunning, a frequent consequence after heart surgery, is characterized by a requirement for postoperative inotropic support despite a technically satisfactory heart operation. In high-risk patients with marginal cardiac reserve, stunning is a major cause of prolonged critical care and may be associated with as much as a 5-fold increase in mortality. In contrast, the frequency of myocardial necrosis (myocardial infarction [MI]) after cardiac surgery is less appreciated and its consequences are much more subtle. The consequences may not be apparent for months to years. While we now have a much better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying myocardial stunning and MI, we still have no effective way to prevent these complications, nor a consistently effective means to engage the well-studied endogenous mechanisms of cardioprotection. The failure to develop clinically effective interventions is multifactorial and can be attributed to reliance on findings obtained from subcellular and cellular studies, to drawing conclusions from preclinical large animal studies that have been conducted in a disease-free state, and to accepting less than robust surrogate markers of injury in phase II clinical trials. These factors also explain the disappointing failure to identify effective adjuvant therapy in the setting of percutaneous coronary revascularization for acute MI (AMI) and reperfusion injury. These issues have contributed to the disappointing outcomes of large and costly phase III trials, resulting in a lack of enthusiasm on the part of the pharmaceutical industry to engage in further drug development for this indication. The purpose of this review is to (1) define the scope of the clinical problem; (2) summarize the outcomes of selected phases II and III clinical trials; and (3) identify the gap that needs to be closed in order to address the unmet clinical need.

Preserved autoregulation of coronary flow after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: retrospective assessment of intraoperative transit time flowmetry with and without intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation. J Cardiothorac Surg 2016; 11:156. [PMID: 27894326 PMCID: PMC5126996 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-016-0550-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2016] [Accepted: 11/22/2016] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) markedly increases graft flow after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass. We sought to delineate the effects of IABP on graft flow after off-pump CABG (OPCAB). Methods The clinical records of 32 patients (25 male, 7 female; mean age: 70 ± 9 years) who underwent OPCAB with IABP between January 2011 and May 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Thirteen patients (41%) had a history of myocardial infarction, and 13 patients (41%) had a history of percutaneous coronary intervention. In total, there were 76 bypass grafts with 102 distal anastomoses. These included 50 in situ or pedicled grafts and 26 aortocoronary grafts. After completion of the anastomoses, the heart was positioned normally, and graft flow with IABP was measured using transit-time flowmetry under stable circulation. Then, IABP was turned off for 30 s to a few minutes, until graft flow was constant, for measurement of flow off IABP. Results The angiographic patency rate was 100% (47/47). Overall, graft flow was 55 ± 36 ml/min on IABP and 53 ± 36 ml/min off IABP (p = 0.37). The pulsatility index was 4.1 ± 2.1 on IABP and 2.7 ± 1.5 off IABP (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in graft flow between on and off IABP for aortocoronary bypass or in situ grafts. Graft flow was 57 ± 36 ml/min on IABP and 55 ± 37 ml/min off IABP (p = 0.41) in in situ grafts and 52 ± 34 ml/min on IABP and 49 ± 35 off IABP (p = 0.41) in aortocoronary grafts. Graft flow on IABP was more than 5 ml/min greater in 28 (37%) bypass grafts, and more than 5 ml/min lower in 20 (26%) bypass grafts. Conclusion In contrast to previous reports for conventional CABG, graft flow after OPCAB was not necessarily increased by IABP, regardless of elevated diastolic arterial pressure. It is suggested that preserved autoregulation of coronary flow contributes to a lower impact on the heart and early functional recovery, and consequently, greater perioperative safety of OPCAB.

J Cardiovasc Magn Reson 2016; 18:85. [PMID: 27842548 PMCID: PMC5109831 DOI: 10.1186/s12968-016-0298-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2016] [Accepted: 10/26/2016] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The CvLPRIT study showed a trend for improved clinical outcomes in the complete revascularisation (CR) group in those treated with an immediate, as opposed to staged in-hospital approach in patients with multivessel coronary disease undergoing primary percutaneous intervention (PPCI). We aimed to assess infarct size and left ventricular function in patients undergoing immediate compared with staged CR for multivessel disease at PPCI. METHODS The Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) substudy of CvLPRIT was a multicentre, prospective, randomized, open label, blinded endpoint trial in PPCI patients with multivessel disease. These data refer to a post-hoc analysis in 93 patients randomized to the CR arm (63 immediate, 30 staged) who completed a pre-discharge CMR scan (median 2 and 4 days respectively) after PPCI. The decision to stage non-IRA revascularization was at the discretion of the treating interventional cardiologist. RESULTS Patients treated with a staged approach had more visible thrombus (26/30 vs. 31/62, p = 0.001), higher SYNTAX score in the IRA (9.5, 8-16 vs. 8.0, 5.5-11, p = 0.04) and a greater incidence of no-reflow (23.3 % vs. 1.6 % p < 0.001) than those treated with immediate CR. After adjustment for confounders, staged patients had larger infarct size (19.7 % [11.7-37.6] vs. 11.6 % [6.8-18.2] of LV Mass, p = 0.012) and lower ejection fraction (42.2 ± 10 % vs. 47.4 ± 9 %, p = 0.019) compared with immediate CR. CONCLUSIONS Of patients randomized to CR in the CMR substudy of CvLPRIT, those in whom the operator chose to stage revascularization had larger infarct size and lower ejection fraction, which persisted after adjusting for important covariates than those who underwent immediate CR. Prospective randomized trials are needed to assess whether immediate CR results in better clinical outcomes than staged CR. TRIAL REGISTRATION ISRCTN70913605 , Registered 24th February 2011.

Infarct size and left ventricular remodelling after preventive percutaneous coronary intervention. Heart 2016; 102:1980-1987.

Abstract
Objective We hypothesised that, compared with culprit-only primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), additional preventive PCI in selected patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction with multivessel disease would not be associated with iatrogenic myocardial infarction, and would be associated with reductions in left ventricular (LV) volumes in the longer term. Methods In the preventive angioplasty in myocardial infarction trial (PRAMI; ISRCTN73028481), cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was prespecified in two centres and performed (median, IQR) 3 (1, 5) and 209 (189, 957) days after primary PCI. Results From 219 enrolled patients in two sites, 84% underwent CMR. 42 (50%) were randomised to culprit-artery-only PCI and 42 (50%) were randomised to preventive PCI. Follow-up CMR scans were available in 72 (86%) patients. There were two (4.8%) cases of procedure-related myocardial infarction in the preventive PCI group. The culprit-artery-only group had a higher proportion of anterior myocardial infarctions (MIs) (55% vs 24%). Infarct sizes (% LV mass) at baseline and follow-up were similar. At follow-up, there was no difference in LV ejection fraction (%, median (IQR), (culprit-artery-only PCI vs preventive PCI) 51.7 (42.9, 60.2) vs 54.4 (49.3, 62.8), p=0.23), LV end-diastolic volume (mL/m2, 69.3 (59.4, 79.9) vs 66.1 (54.7, 73.7), p=0.48) and LV end-systolic volume (mL/m2, 31.8 (24.4, 43.0) vs 30.7 (23.0, 36.3), p=0.20). Non-culprit angiographic lesions had low-risk Syntax scores and 47% had non-complex characteristics. Conclusions Compared with culprit-only PCI, non-infarct-artery MI in the preventive PCI strategy was uncommon and LV volumes and ejection fraction were similar.

Abstract
Background Complete revascularization may improve outcomes compared with an infarct-related artery (IRA)-only strategy in patients being treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) who have multivessel disease presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, there is concern that non-IRA PCI may cause additional non-IRA myocardial infarction (MI). Objectives This study sought to determine whether in-hospital complete revascularization was associated with increased total infarct size compared with an IRA-only strategy. Methods This multicenter prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint clinical trial evaluated STEMI patients with multivessel disease having PPCI within 12 h of symptom onset. Patients were randomized to either IRA-only PCI or complete in-hospital revascularization. Contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) was performed following PPCI (median day 3) and stress CMR at 9 months. The pre-specified primary endpoint was infarct size on pre-discharge CMR. The study had 80% power to detect a 4% difference in infarct size with 100 patients per group. Results Of the 296 patients in the main trial, 205 participated in the CMR substudy, and 203 patients (98 complete revascularization and 105 IRA-only) completed the pre-discharge CMR. The groups were well-matched. Total infarct size (median, interquartile range) was similar to IRA-only revascularization: 13.5% (6.2% to 21.9%) versus complete revascularization, 12.6% (7.2% to 22.6%) of left ventricular mass, p = 0.57 (95% confidence interval for difference in geometric means 0.82 to 1.41). The complete revascularization group had an increase in non-IRA MI on the pre-discharge CMR (22 of 98 vs. 11 of 105, p = 0.02). There was no difference in total infarct size or ischemic burden between treatment groups at follow-up CMR. Conclusions Multivessel PCI in the setting of STEMI leads to a small increase in CMR-detected non-IRA MI, but total infarct size was not significantly different from an IRA-only revascularization strategy.

Abstract
Background The optimal management of patients found to have multivessel disease while undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (P-PCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is uncertain. Objectives CvLPRIT (Complete versus Lesion-only Primary PCI trial) is a U.K. open-label randomized study comparing complete revascularization at index admission with treatment of the infarct-related artery (IRA) only. Methods After they provided verbal assent and underwent coronary angiography, 296 patients in 7 U.K. centers were randomized through an interactive voice-response program to either in-hospital complete revascularization (n = 150) or IRA-only revascularization (n = 146). Complete revascularization was performed either at the time of P-PCI or before hospital discharge. Randomization was stratified by infarct location (anterior/nonanterior) and symptom onset (≤3 h or >3 h). The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death, recurrent myocardial infarction (MI), heart failure, and ischemia-driven revascularization within 12 months. Results Patient groups were well matched for baseline clinical characteristics. The primary endpoint occurred in 10.0% of the complete revascularization group versus 21.2% in the IRA-only revascularization group (hazard ratio: 0.45; 95% confidence interval: 0.24 to 0.84; p = 0.009). A trend toward benefit was seen early after complete revascularization (p = 0.055 at 30 days). Although there was no significant reduction in death or MI, a nonsignificant reduction in all primary endpoint components was seen. There was no reduction in ischemic burden on myocardial perfusion scintigraphy or in the safety endpoints of major bleeding, contrast-induced nephropathy, or stroke between the groups. Conclusions In patients presenting for P-PCI with multivessel disease, index admission complete revascularization significantly lowered the rate of the composite primary endpoint at 12 months compared with treating only the IRA. In such patients, inpatient total revascularization may be considered, but larger clinical trials are required to confirm this result and specifically address whether this strategy is associated with improved survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) has had several definitions in the last decade, including the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) definition, that requires marked biomarker elevations congruent with surgical PMI criteria. METHODS AND RESULTS The aim of this study was to examine the definition-based frequencies of PMI and whether they influenced the reported association between PMI and increased rates of late death/ myocardial infarction (MI). We studied 742 patients; 492 (66%) had normal troponin T (TnT) levels and 250 (34%) had elevated, but stable or falling, TnT levels. PMI, using the 2007 and the 2012 universal definition, occurred in 172 (23.2%) and in 99 (13.3%) patients, respectively, whereas 19 (2.6%) met the SCAI PMI definition (P<0.0001). Among patients with PMI using the 2012 definition, occlusion of a side branch ≤1 mm occurred in 48 patients (48.5%) and was the most common angiographic finding for PMI. The rates of death/MI at 2 years in patients with, compared to those without, PMI was 14.7% versus 10.1% (P=0.087) based on the 2007 definition, 16.9% versus 10.3% (P=0.059) based on the 2012 definition, and 29.4% versus 10.7% (P=0.015) based on the SCAI definition. CONCLUSION In this study, PMI, according to the SCAI definition, was associated with more-frequent late death/MI, with ≈20% of all patients, who had PMI using the 2007 universal MI definition, not having SCAI-defined PMI. Categorizing these latter patients as SCAI-defined no PMI did not alter the rate of death/MI among no-PMI patients.

The REFLO-STEMI trial comparing intracoronary adenosine, sodium nitroprusside and standard therapy for the attenuation of infarct size and microvascular obstruction during primary percutaneous coronary intervention: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial. Trials 2014; 15:371. [PMID: 25252600 PMCID: PMC4189551 DOI: 10.1186/1745-6215-15-371] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2014] [Accepted: 09/10/2014] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Microvascular obstruction (MVO) secondary to ischaemic-reperfusion injury is an important but underappreciated determinant of short- and longer-term outcome following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Several small studies have demonstrated a reduction in the degree of MVO utilising a variety of vasoactive agents, with adenosine and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) being most evaluated. However, the evidence base remains weak as the trials have had variable endpoints, differing drug doses and delivery. As such, the results regarding benefit are conflicting. METHODS The REperfusion Facilitated by LOcal adjunctive therapy in STEMI (REFLO-STEMI) trial is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, controlled, open label, study with blinded endpoint analysis: Patients presenting within 6 h of onset of STEMI and undergoing planned primary PCI (P-PCI) with TIMI 0/1 flow in the infarct-related artery (IRA) and no significant bystander coronary artery disease on angiography, are randomised into one of three groups: PCI with adjunctive pharmacotherapy (intracoronary adenosine or SNP) or control (standard PCI). All receive Bivalirudin anticoagulation and thrombus aspiration. The primary outcome is infarct size (IS) (determined as a percentage of total left ventricular mass) measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) undertaken at 48 to 72 h post P-PCI. Secondary outcome measures include MVO (hypoenhancement within infarct core) on CMRI, angiographic markers of microvascular perfusion and MACE during 1-month follow-up. The study aims to recruit 240 patients (powered at 80% to detect a 5% absolute reduction in IS). DISCUSSION The REFLO-STEMI study has been designed to address the weaknesses of previous trials, which have collectively failed to demonstrate whether adjunctive pharmacotherapy with adenosine and/or SNP can reduce measures of myocardial injury (infarct size and MVO) and improve clinical outcome, despite good basic evidence that they have the potential to attenuate this process. The REFLO-STEMI study will be the most scientifically robust trial to date evaluating whether adjunctive therapy (intracoronary adenosine or SNP following thrombus aspiration) reduces CMRI measured IS and MVO in patients undergoing P-PCI within 6 h of onset of STEMI. TRIAL REGISTRATION Trial registered 20th November 2012: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier NCT01747174.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The clinical classification of myocardial infarction (MI) into five types was introduced in 2007 as a component of the universal definition. A Type 5 MI was defined as a MI related to coronary artery bypass surgery. In a setting of patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting, we set out (i) to describe the pattern of multiple serial cardiac troponin I (cTnI) measurements within 72 h postoperatively and (ii) to determine the optimal cardiac troponin I cut-off value in ruling in or ruling out a Type 5 MI. METHODS In 2011-2012, patients with two- and three-vessel disease scheduled for elective on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting were considered. Samples for cTnI were drawn before and 0, 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 h after surgery. Analysis for cardiac troponin I was performed by use of the Abbott Architect c16000 system with an upper reference limit (URL) of 30 ng/l. The diagnosis of a Type 5 MI was prospectively made by a consultant cardiologist and was based on clinical, electrocardiographic and imaging data together with routine sampling and measurements of cTnI, but without knowledge of the results of serial study cTnI measurements. RESULTS Of the 141 eligible patients, 99 (70%) qualified for final enrollment. In 8 patients (8%), the clinical diagnosis of a Type 5 MI was made. Patients without Type 5 MI (n = 91) had a median cTnI peak value of 7675 ng/l compared with 20 500 ng/l in Type 5 MI patients (P = 0.01). By use of receiver operating characteristic curves, optimal cut-off values for identifying Type 5 MI were defined as 7970 ng/l (corresponding to 266 times the URL) 12 h postoperatively and 9950 ng/l (corresponding to 331 times the URL) 24 h postoperatively. These cut-off values resulted in negative predictive values of 0.99 (12 h) and 0.99 (24 h). Positive predictive values were 0.23 (12 h) and 0.35 (24 h). CONCLUSIONS In clinically stable patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting, measurements of cTnI are useful in ruling out a Type 5 MI.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide direct evidence that mechanical obstruction of microvessels inhibits infarct resorption (healing) and enhances left ventricular (LV) remodeling using MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS Animals (n = 20 pigs) served as controls (group I) or were subjected to either 90 min left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery occlusion/reperfusion (group II) or 90 min LAD occlusion/ microemboli delivery/reperfusion (group III). MRI (cine and delayed contrast enhanced MRI, DE-MRI) was performed at 3 days and 5 weeks after interventions and used for assessing LV function, mass, and extent of myocardial damage and microvascular obstruction (MVO) using semi-automated threshold method. RESULTS Persistent MVO in the core of contiguous infarct was larger and more frequent (n = 8/8) in group III than group II (4/8) on DE-MRI at 3 days. Furthermore, patchy microinfarct, as a result of microembolization, was visible as hyperenhanced zone at the borders of the contiguous infarct. The reduction in ejection fraction and increase in LV volumes on cine MRI were greater in group III than group II at 3 days and 5 weeks, which may be attributed to the slow infarct resorption, MVO extents and patchy microinfarct at the borders. CONCLUSION This MRI study illustrates the recently raised conjecture that MVO delays/inhibits infarct resorption (healing), accentuates LV hypertrophy and pathological remodeling.

Abstract
The detachment of atherothrombotic material from the atherosclerotic coronary plaque and downstream embolisation is an underrecognized phenomenon and it causes different degrees of impairment of the coronary microcirculation. During treatment of obstructive atherosclerotic plaque by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) distal embolisation (DE) is considered to be inevitable and it is associated with potential clinical and prognostic implications. This review aims to assess the main aspects of both spontaneous and procedural DE, analyze their different pathophysiology, provide specific insights on the main diagnostic tools for their identification, and finally focus on the main strategies for their treatment and prevention.

Abstract
Numerous definitions have been proposed for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI) after coronary revascularization. The universal definition for MI designates post procedural biomarker thresholds for defining percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-related MI (type 4a) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)-related MI (type 5), which are of uncertain prognostic importance. In addition, for both the MI types, cTn is recommended as the biomarker of choice, the prognostic significance of which is less well validated than CK-MB. Widespread adoption of a MI definition not clearly linked to subsequent adverse events such as mortality or heart failure may have serious consequences for the appropriate assessment of devices and therapies, may affect clinical care pathways, and may result in misinterpretation of physician competence. Rather than using an MI definition sensitive for small degrees of myonecrosis (the occurrence of which, based on contemporary large-scale studies, are unlikely to have important clinical consequences), it is instead recommended that a threshold level of biomarker elevation which has been strongly linked to subsequent adverse events in clinical studies be used to define a "clinically relevant MI." The present document introduces a new definition for "clinically relevant MI" after coronary revascularization (PCI or CABG), which is applicable for use in clinical trials, patient care, and quality outcomes assessment.

Abstract
Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. New serological biomarkers, such as troponins, have improved the diagnosis of ACS; however, the diagnosis of ACS can still be difficult as there is marked heterogeneity in its presentation and significant overlap with other disorders presenting with chest pain. Evidence is accumulating that cardiac MRI provides information that can aid the detection and differential diagnosis of ACS, guide clinical decision-making and improve risk-stratification after an event. In this review, we present the relevant cardiac MRI techniques that can be used to detect ACS accurately, provide differential diagnosis, identify the sequelae of ACS, and determine prognostication after ACS.

Abstract
PURPOSE To use cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging indices, injury biomarkers, and microscopy for quantifying the effects of defined microemboli volume and sizes on viability, left ventricular (LV) function, and perfusion in preexisting acute myocardial infarcts in a swine model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Institutional approval was obtained to perform x-ray fluoroscopy and 90-minute left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion-reperfusion (single ischemic insult) in 16 pigs and coronary embolization in eight of the 16 pigs (32 mm(3), 40-120 μm microemboli) (double ischemic insults). Another eight pigs served as controls. Cardiac MR imaging results (viability, function, and perfusion), injury biomarkers (creatine-kinase-MB and troponin I), and histopathologic evaluations were quantified. Analysis of variance was performed, and a P value less than .02 was considered to indicate a significant difference. RESULTS Delayed contrast material-enhanced MR imaging allowed simultaneous visualization of hyperenhanced large infarcts, hypoenhanced microvascular obstruction (MVO) zones, and moderately enhanced patchy microinfarcts in border zones, which represent different degrees of contraction and perfusion in the respective regions, in pigs subjected to double ischemic insults. The increase in myocardial damage was smaller in pigs with double insults (15.7% ± 1.1% of total LV mass) than in those with a single insult (12.4% ± 1.2%, P < .02), but the reduction in LV ejection fraction was disproportional (32% ± 0.6% and 38% ± 1%, P < .02, respectively). Delayed contrast-enhanced imaging can allow quantification of the MVO zone but can result in underestimation of the extent of myocardial damage compared with microscopy in animals subjected to double insults (18.2 ± 1.6, P < .02). A significant increase in cardiac injury biomarkers was observed at 18-24 hours in both cohorts. The additional effect of microemboli on troponin I was demonstrated at 68-72 hours (3.2 ng/mL ± 0.85 [3.20 μg/L ± 0.85] vs 1.34 ng/mL ± 0.43 [1.34 μg/L ± 0.43], P < .02). CONCLUSION MR imaging has the potential to allow visualization of acute myocardial infarcts, MVO zones, and patchy microinfarcts simultaneously. The accentuated LV dysfunction caused by double ischemic insults was linked to expansion of the MVO zone, perfusion deficits, and myocardial damage.
