Treatment and outcomes of patients with chronic lung disease and acute myocardial infarction: Insights from the nationwide AMIS plus registry. Eur J Clin Invest 2024; 54:e14193. [PMID: 38481088 DOI: 10.1111/eci.14193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2024] [Accepted: 02/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data are available on patients with chronic lung disease (CLD) presenting with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). We aimed to analyse baseline characteristics, treatment and outcome of those patients enrolled in the Swiss nationwide prospective AMIS Plus registry. METHODS All AMI patients enrolled between January 2002 and December 2021 with data on CLD, as defined in the Charlson Comorbidity Index, were included. The primary endpoints were in-hospital mortality and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), defined as all-cause death, reinfarction and cerebrovascular events. Baseline characteristics, in-hospital treatments and outcomes were analysed using descriptive statistics and logistic regression. RESULTS Among 53,680 AMI patients enrolled during this time, 5.8% had CLD. Compared with patients without CLD, CLD patients presented more frequently with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (MI) and type 2 MI (12.8% vs. 6.5%, p < 0.001). With respect to treatment, CLD patients were less likely to receive P2Y12 inhibitors (p < 0.001) and less likely to undergo percutaneous coronary interventions (68.7% vs. 82.5%; p < 0.001). In-hospital mortality declined in AMI patients with CLD over time (from 12% in 2002 to 7.3% in 2021). Multivariable regression analysis showed that CLD was an independent predictor for MACCE (adjusted OR was 1.28 [95% CI 1.07-1.52], p = 0.006). CONCLUSION Patients with CLD and AMI were less likely to receive evidence-based pharmacologic treatments, coronary revascularization and had a higher incidence of MACCE during their hospital stay compared to those without CLD. Over 20 years, in-hospital mortality was significantly reduced in AMI patients, especially in those with CLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a higher risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD) than individuals without COPD; however, longitudinal evidence is lacking. Therefore, we aimed to estimate the risk of IHD between COPD and control cohorts using a longitudinal nationwide database. METHODS We used 2009-2017 data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service National Sample Cohort (NHIS-NSC). Adult participants at least 20 years of age who underwent health examinations and without a history of COPD or IHD were included (n = 540,976). Participants were followed from January 1, 2009, until death, development of IHD, or December 31, 2019, whichever came first. RESULTS At baseline, there were 3,421 participants with incident COPD and 537,555 participants without COPD. During a median of 8.0 years (5.3-9.1 years) of follow-up, 2.51% of the participants with COPD (n = 86) and 0.77% of the participants without COPD (n = 4,128) developed IHD, with an incidence of 52.24 and 10.91 per 10,000 person-years, respectively. Participants with COPD had a higher risk of IHD (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.55; 95% confidence interval, 1.25-1.93) than subjects without COPD. Demographics such as age, sex, body mass index, and personal health behaviors including smoking status and physical activity did not show significant interaction with the relationship between COPD and IHD (P for interaction > 0.05 for all). CONCLUSION The results indicate that COPD is associated with the development of IHD independent of demographic characteristics and health-related behaviors. Based on these results, clinicians should closely monitor the onset of IHD in subjects with COPD.

Abstract
Objective Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a prevalent chronic respiratory disease that poses a significant health risk to individuals. Patients with COPD are predisposed to a higher incidence of coronary artery disease (CAD) than the general population. This study aims to investigate the correlation between COPD and the incidence of in-stent restenosis (ISR) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data and laboratory test results of patients who underwent PCI at our hospital between January 2018 and December 2021 to investigate the relationship between COPD and drug-Eluting Stents (DES) postoperative ISR. We employed the best subset method to select the most suitable combination of predictive factors, utilizing the data, and verified the precision of the model by means of internal validation. We ultimately assessed the performance of the prediction model using an ROC curve. Results The research indicates that COPD is an independent risk factor for ISR after PCI (OR=2.437, 95% CI [1.336, 4.495], P=0.004). The analysis revealed an area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.783 for the training group and 0.705 for the testing group, indicating a model fitting for both groups (both > 0.5). Conclusion COPD history is a dependable predictor of stent restenosis post percutaneous coronary intervention.

Cardiovascular Prognosis of Subclinical Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in Patients with Suspected or Confirmed Coronary Artery Disease. Int J Chron Obstruct Pulmon Dis 2023; 18:1899-1908.

Abstract
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) worsens prognosis in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the cardiovascular prognosis in patients with stable or mildly symptomatic COPD remains unclear. Here, we sought to determine the long-term cardiovascular events in patients with subclinical or early-stage COPD with concomitant CAD. Methods This was a longitudinal analytical study involving 117 patients with suspected or established CAD who underwent assessment of pulmonary function by spirometry and who were followed up for six years (March 2015-January 2021). The patients were divided into two groups, one comprising COPD (n=44) and the other non-COPD (n=73) patients. Cox regression was used to evaluate the association between COPD and cardiovascular events, with adjustment for the established CAD risk factors, and the effect size was measured by the Cohen test. Results COPD patients were older (p=0.028), had a greater frequency of diabetes (p=0.026), were more likely to be smokers (p<0.001), and had higher modified Medical Research Council scores (p<0.001). There was no difference between the groups regarding gender, body mass index, hypertension, dyslipidemia, family history of CAD, and type of angina. CAD frequency and the proportion of patients with severe and multivessel CAD were significantly higher among COPD than among non-COPD patients (all p<0.001). At six-year follow-up, patients with COPD were more likely to have experienced adverse cardiovascular events than those without COPD (p<0.001; effect size, 0.720). After adjusting for established CAD risk factors, COPD occurrence remained an independent predictor for long-term adverse cardiovascular events (OR: 5.13; 95% CI: 2.29-11.50; p<0.0001). Conclusion COPD was associated with increased severity of coronary lesions and a greater number of adverse cardiovascular events in patients with suspected or confirmed CAD. COPD remained a predictor of long-term cardiovascular events in stable patients with subclinical or early-stage of COPD, independently of the established CAD risk factors.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a widespread disease associated with high rates of disability and mortality. COPD is characterized by chronic inflammation in the bronchi as well as systemic inflammation, which contributes significantly to the clinically heterogeneous course of the disease. Lipid metabolism disorders are common in COPD, being a part of its pathogenesis. High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) are not only involved in lipid metabolism, but are also part of the organism’s immune and antioxidant defense. In addition, HDL is a versatile transport system for endogenous regulatory agents and is also involved in the removal of exogenous substances such as lipopolysaccharide. These functions, as well as information about lipoprotein metabolism disorders in COPD, allow a broader assessment of their role in the pathogenesis of heterogeneous and comorbid course of the disease.

Long-Term Outcomes for Chinese COPD Patients After PCI: A Propensity Score Matched, Double-Cohort Study. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:827635. [PMID: 35757341 PMCID: PMC9218100 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.827635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives The aim of this study was to analyze long-term outcomes of Chinese coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with (and without) chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a chronic condition which often develops in conjunction with CAD. PCI is a core therapy for CAD, although we still need to understand CAD-COPD outcomes and to identify factors that influence prognoses, across ethnicities. Methods This double-cohort study involved 12,343 Chinese CAD patients who received PCI. Baseline characteristics were collected in two independent, specialty centers. Propensity-score matching was performed to control confounding factors, using a nearest neighbor matching method within a 0.02 caliper and on a propensity score scale of 0.1 for each center. Comorbid CAD-COPD cases were compared to non-COPD patients in terms of major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). Results Patients with COPD were generally older than those without COPD (65.4 ± 9.2 vs. 58.2 ± 10.3, p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in the end points between COPD and non-COPD groups after PCI (All p > 0.05); however, the incidence of MACEs increased after 450 days. Further subgroup analysis suggests that COPD is approximately four times more prevalent among those aged over 75 years (HR, 3.818; 95%CI, 1.10–13.29; p = 0.027) and those aged below 55 years (HR = 4.254; 95% CI, 1.55–11.72; p = 0.003). Conclusion Having COPD does not appear to have a significant impact on CAD outcomes 2 years after PCI, and beyond. However, an increasing number of MACEs was observed after 450 days, which suggests that there may be a double-stage effect of COPD on PCI prognosis. There is a need for focused comorbidity management, specifically for those aged below 55 years and above 75 years.

Effects of COPD on Left Ventricular and Left Atrial Deformation in Patients with Acute Myocardial Infarction: Strain Analysis Using Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11071917. [PMID: 35407524 PMCID: PMC8999583 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11071917] [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: 02/10/2022] [Revised: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Myocardial strain analysis, which describes myocardial deformation (shortening or lengthening), provides more detailed information about left ventricular (LV) and atrial (LA) functions than conventional echocardiography and delivers prognostic information. To analyze the effects of COPD on left heart function upon acute myocardial infarction (AMI), consecutive AMI patients were retrospectively screened, and patients were included if a post-AMI echocardiography and results of recent pulmonary function tests (PFTs) were available. Strain analysis was performed by a cardiologist who was blinded to clinical information. Overall, 109 AMI patients were included (STEMI: 38%, non-STEMI: 62%). COPD patients (41%) had significantly more impaired LV “global-longitudinal-strain” (LV-GLS) compared to non-COPD patients (−15 ± 4% vs. −18 ± 4%; p < 0.001, respectively), even after adjusting for LV-ejection-fraction (LVEF) and age (mean estimated difference: 1.7%, p = 0.009). Furthermore, COPD patients had more impaired LA strain (LAS) than non-COPD patients in all cardiac cycle phases (estimated mean differences after adjusting for LVEF and age: during reservoir phase: −7.5% (p < 0.001); conduit phase: 5.5% (p < 0.001); contraction phase: 1.9% (p = 0.034)). There were no correlations between PFT variables and strain values. In conclusion, the presence of COPD was associated with more impaired LV and LA functions after AMI, as detected by strain analysis, which was independent of age, LVEF, and PFT variables.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is an important medical and social problem, and the keys to solving this problem are still largely unknown. A common situation in real clinical practice is the comorbid course of atherosclerosis with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Diseases share some common risk factors and may be closely linked pathogenetically. METHODS Bioinformatics analysis of datasets from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) was performed to examine the gene ontology (GO) of common differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in COPD and peripheral arterial atherosclerosis. DEGs were identified using the limma R package with the settings p < 0.05, corrected using the Benjamini & Hochberg algorithm and ǀlog 2FCǀ > 1.0. The GO, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment, and the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis were performed with the detected DEGs. RESULTS The biological processes and signaling pathways involving common DEGs from airway epithelial datasets in COPD and tissue in peripheral atherosclerosis were identified. A total of 15 DEGs were identified, comprising 12 upregulated and 3 downregulated DEGs. The GO enrichment analysis demonstrated that the upregulated hub genes were mainly involved in the inflammatory response, reactive oxygen species metabolic process, cell adhesion, lipid metabolic process, regulation of angiogenesis, icosanoid biosynthetic process, and cellular response to a chemical stimulus. The KEGG pathway enrichment analysis demonstrated that the common pathways were Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, NF-kappa B signaling pathway, lipid and atherosclerosis, and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. CONCLUSIONS Biological processes and signaling pathways associated with the immune response may link the development and progression of COPD and atherosclerosis.

Undiagnosed Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is Highly Prevalent in Patients Referred for Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography with Shortness of Breath. Lung 2022; 200:41-48. [PMID: 35166905 DOI: 10.1007/s00408-022-00512-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2021] [Accepted: 01/06/2022] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Shortness of breath (SOB) is a common symptom referral for dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE). Patients with SOB and a normal DSE have worse long-term outcome than the general population. This suggests multiple aetiologies are involved. The purpose of this study was to assess the prevalence and clinical significance of undiagnosed COPD amongst patients referred for a DSE with SOB. METHODS We prospectively studied 114 patients referred for DSE with SOB without prior evidence of lung disease (mean age 64.9 ± 18.5 years, 60 male). Respiratory function testing using spirometry was performed on all patients on the day of their DSE. The study end-points were cardiac events and total mortality. RESULTS Respiratory function testing and DSE was performed in all patients and COPD was highly prevalent (n = 93). Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to estimate the effect of dyspnoea on non-fatal cardiac events (NFCE) and all-cause mortality. Over a mean follow-up of 4.5 ± 2.6 years, the composite end-point of NFCE and all-cause mortality occurred in 62.7% and 16.7% patients, respectively. COPD (HR 1.27; 95% CI 1.17-1.93), previous myocardial infarction (HR 1.84; 95% CI 1.06-3.2), myocardial ischaemia (HR 2.56; 95% CI 1.48-4.43), peak wall motion score index (HR 4.66; 95% CI 2.26-9.6), and mitral E/E' (HR 1.21; 95% CI 1.1-1.33) were significantly associated with a NFCE. Myocardial ischaemia (HR 4.43; 95% CI 1.24-15.81) was the only independent predictor of all-cause mortality. CONCLUSION Undiagnosed COPD is highly prevalent and independently associated with worse outcome amongst patients with SOB referred for DSE. Symptom presentation is therefore an important consideration when interpreting DSE results.

Abstract
Aim To evaluate the incidence rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACVE) in the long-term following percutaneous coronary interventions (PCCI) in patients with acute and chronic ischemic heart disease (IHD) and the contribution of concurrent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to the long-term prediction.Material and methods This prospective cohort study included 254 patients with IHD and concurrent COPD and 392 patients with IHD without COPD. PCCI was performed in all patients: for acute coronary syndrome in 295 patients and for chronic IHD in 351 patients. The follow-up period lasted for up to 36 months. The outcome was a composite endpoint, MACVE, that included cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, repeated unscheduled myocardial revascularization (MR), and the time to the event.Results The age-standardized incidence of MACVE in patients with IHD and COPD was 31.5 vs. 23.2 % in patients with IHD without concurrent COPD (p=0.025), primarily due to an increased frequency of repeated unscheduled MR (20.5 vs. 14.0 %, p=0.041), which was associated with earlier occurrence of adverse events (p<0.001). Repeated unscheduled MR was more frequently performed in patients with moderate COPD; the frequency of MR decreased with increasing severity of COPD, whereas the total incidence of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, and stroke was the highest in patients with severe and very severe COPD.Conclusion The presence of concurrent COPD increases the relative risk of MACVE 1.36 times (95 % confidence interval: 1.05-1.75) and facilitates their earlier development. Repeated unscheduled MR makes the major contribution to the increase in the total risk (relative risk, 1.46; 95 % confidence interval: 1.03-2.06). The increase in severity of COPD is associated with the increase in total frequency of MACVE (p=0.005).

Abstract
Background Percutaneous coronary intervention with radial arterial access has been associated with fewer occurrences of major bleeding. However, published data on the long‐term mortality and major adverse cardiac events after percutaneous coronary intervention with radial or femoral arterial access are inconclusive. Method and Results This was a territory‐wide retrospective cohort study including 26 022 patients who underwent first‐ever percutaneous coronary intervention between January 1, 2010 and December 31, 2017 in Hong Kong. Among the 14 614 patients matched by propensity score (7307 patients in each group), 558 (7.6%) and 787 (10.8%) patients died during the observation period in the radial group and femoral group, respectively, resulting in annualized all‐cause mortality rates of 2.69% and 3.87%, respectively. The radial group had a lower risk of all‐cause mortality compared with the femoral group up to 3 years after percutaneous coronary intervention (hazard ratio [HR], 0.70; 95% CI, 0.63–0.78; P<0.001). Radial access was associated with a lower risk of major adverse cardiac events (HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.73–0.83, P<0.001), myocardial infarction after hospital discharge (HR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.70–0.87, P<0.001), and unplanned revascularization (HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.68–0.85, P<0.001). The risks of stroke were similar across the 2 groups (HR, 0.96; 95% CI, 0.82–1.13, P=0.655). Conclusions Radial access was associated with a significant reduction in all‐cause mortality at 3 years compared with femoral access. Radial access was associated with reduced risks of myocardial infarction and unplanned revascularization, but not stroke. The benefits were sustained beyond the early postoperative period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients have higher recurrence of adverse events and worse prognosis after acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The underlying pathophysiological mechanism is not fully elucidated. METHODS In screening for COPD in ACS (SCAP) Trial (NCT02324660), ACS patients with smoking habit underwent a predischarge screening procedure to detect undiagnosed chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (UCOPD) confirmed with spirometry at 60 days. Patients were then categorized as UCOPD or no-COPD. In 65 NSTE-ACS patients, we performed near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in the culprit and at least one non-culprit vessel (151 vessels overall), and we calculated the SYNTAX I Score. Primary endpoint was max lipid core burden index (LCBI) 4 mm. Secondary endpoints were SYNTAX Score I and vessel LCBI. RESULTS Max LCBI 4 mm and vessel LCBI were significantly higher in the UCOPD compared to the no-COPD group (UCOPD 388±122, no-COPD 264±131, P<0.001; UCOPD 118±50, no-COPD 82±42, P<0.001, respectively). UCOPD patients showed higher max LCBI 4 mm and LCBI vessel both in culprit and non-culprit vessels. SYNTAX Score I was comparable between the two groups (UCOPD: 13.5 [5.5-24], no-COPD: 12.5 [5-24.5], P=0.7). CONCLUSIONS NSTE-ACS patients with UCOPD showed a higher LCBI compared to those without COPD, while SYNTAX Score I was comparable between the two groups.

Abstract
COPD is strongly associated with cardiovascular disease, in particular acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Besides shared risk factors, COPD-related factors, such as systemic inflammation and hypoxia, underlie the pathophysiological interaction between COPD and AMI. The prevalence of COPD amongst AMI populations ranges from 7% to 30%, which is possibly even an underestimation due to underdiagnoses of COPD in general. Following the acute event, patients with COPD have an increased risk of mortality, heart failure and arrhythmias during follow-up. Adequate risk stratification can be performed using various imaging techniques, evaluating cardiac size and function after AMI. Conventional imaging techniques such as echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging have already indicated impaired cardiac function in patients with COPD without known cardiovascular disease. Advanced imaging techniques such as speckle-tracking echocardiography and T1 mapping could provide more insight into cardiac structure and function after AMI and have proven to be of prognostic value. Future research is required to better understand the impact of AMI on patients with COPD in order to provide effective secondary prevention. The present article summarises the current knowledge on the pathophysiologic factors involved in the interaction between COPD and AMI, the prevalence and outcomes of AMI in patients with COPD and the role of imaging in the acute phase and risk stratification after AMI in patients with COPD.

Abstract
Background In this trial, our objective was to evaluate the relationship between long-term clinical outcomes in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) treated with retrograde endovascular recanalization (ER) of chronic total occlusions (CTOs) regarding the infra-inguinal lower limb arteries and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods A total of 834 consecutive subjects were enrolled in the study. The mean age was 67.8±10.6 years (62.6% males). COPD was diagnosed in 98 patients (11.7%). The infra-inguinal location included the deep, superficial and common femoral artery, popliteal artery or below the knee arteries. During follow-up, we evaluated major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and major adverse limb events (MALE). MACCE was considered as death, stroke/transient ischemic attack, myocardial infarction, percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting operation, while MALE regarded amputation, target lesion re-intervention, target vessel re-intervention and surgical action. Results The mean follow-up was 1,144.9±664.3 days and the interquartile range was 1,110.5 (504.5–1,734.7). Data were collected between 2006 and 2016. We noticed significant differences in death rates among the COPD and non-COPD groups. The cumulative number of events (deaths) was 12.2%, 17.3%, 18.4%, 22.4%, 23.5%, 23.5% and 23.5% in the COPD group and 6.1%, 7.5%, 10.5%, 11.3%, 11.4% 11.5% and 11.5% in the non-COPD group after 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 years of follow-up, and was notably greater for COPD (P=0.0007). Conclusions Patients with COPD and PAD treated with the ER and retrograde approach due to CTOs are related to higher mortality than non-COPD patients.

Abstract
The importance of appropriately recognizing and managing patients with cardiovascular and pulmonary comorbidities is underscored by the poor outcomes described in complex comorbid patients. Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have an increased risk, up to one-third greater than the general population, of cardiovascular comorbidities including hypertension and diabetes [1].

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Discovering subphenotypes of complex diseases can help characterize disease cohorts for investigative studies aimed at developing better diagnoses and treatments. Recent advances in unsupervised machine learning on electronic health record (EHR) data have enabled researchers to discover phenotypes without input from domain experts. However, most existing studies have ignored time and modeled diseases as discrete events. Uncovering the evolution of phenotypes - how they emerge, evolve and contribute to health outcomes - is essential to define more precise phenotypes and refine the understanding of disease progression. Our objective was to assess the benefits of an unsupervised approach that incorporates time to model diseases as dynamic processes in phenotype discovery. METHODS In this study, we applied a constrained non-negative tensor-factorization approach to characterize the complexity of cardiovascular disease (CVD) patient cohort based on longitudinal EHR data. Through tensor-factorization, we identified a set of phenotypic topics (i.e., subphenotypes) that these patients established over the 10 years prior to the diagnosis of CVD, and showed the progress pattern. For each identified subphenotype, we examined its association with the risk for adverse cardiovascular outcomes estimated by the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association Pooled Cohort Risk Equations, a conventional CVD-risk assessment tool frequently used in clinical practice. Furthermore, we compared the subsequent myocardial infarction (MI) rates among the six most prevalent subphenotypes using survival analysis. RESULTS From a cohort of 12,380 adult CVD individuals with 1068 unique PheCodes, we successfully identified 14 subphenotypes. Through the association analysis with estimated CVD risk for each subtype, we found some phenotypic topics such as Vitamin D deficiency and depression, Urinary infections cannot be explained by the conventional risk factors. Through a survival analysis, we found markedly different risks of subsequent MI following the diagnosis of CVD among the six most prevalent topics (p < 0.0001), indicating these topics may capture clinically meaningful subphenotypes of CVD. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates the potential benefits of using tensor-decomposition to model diseases as dynamic processes from longitudinal EHR data. Our results suggest that this data-driven approach may potentially help researchers identify complex and chronic disease subphenotypes in precision medicine research.

Abstract
In patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cardiovascular comorbidities are highly prevalent and associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. This coincidence is increasingly seen in context of a “cardiopulmonary continuum” rather than being simply attributed to shared risk factors such as cigarette smoking. Overlapping symptoms such as dyspnea or chest pain lead to a worse prognosis due to missed concomitant diagnoses. Moreover, medication is often withheld as a result of unfounded concerns about side effects. Despite the frequent coincidence, current guidelines are still mostly restricted to the management of the individual disease. Future diagnostic and therapeutic strategies should therefore be guided by an integrative perspective as well as a refined phenotyping of disease entities.

Abstract
Purpose COPD is associated with coronary artery disease, and exacerbations are major events in COPD. However, the impact of recent hospitalized exacerbations on outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains underdetermined. Patients and methods Using the National Health Insurance Research Database of Taiwan, we identified 215,275 adult patients who underwent first-time PCI between 2000 and 2012. Among these patients, 15,485 patients had COPD. The risks of hospital mortality, overall mortality, and adverse cardiovascular outcomes after PCI (ie, ischemic events, repeat revascularization, cerebrovascular events, and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events [MACCEs]) in relation to COPD, and the frequency and timing of recent hospitalized exacerbations within 1 year before PCI were estimated. Results COPD was independently associated with increased risks of hospital mortality, overall mortality, ischemic events, cerebrovascular events, and MACCE during follow-up after PCI. Among cerebrovascular events, ischemic rather than hemorrhagic stroke was more likely to occur. In COPD patients, recent hospitalized exacerbations further increased the risks of overall mortality, ischemic events, and MACCE following PCI. Notably, patients with more frequent or more recent hospitalized exacerbations had a trend toward higher risks of these adverse events (all P-values for trend <0.0001), especially those with ≥2 exacerbations within 1 year or any exacerbation within 1 month before PCI. Conclusion Integrated care is urgently needed to alleviate COPD-related morbidity and mortality after PCI, especially for patients with a recent hospitalized exacerbation.

PLoS One 2018; 13:e0204257. [PMID: 30273363 PMCID: PMC6166928 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0204257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2018] [Accepted: 09/04/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The relationship between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and periprocedural complications of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) is influenced by several factors. We aimed to investigate the association between COPD, its complication type and rate in patients undergoing PCI. Methods Data were prospectively collected using the Polish Cardiovascular Intervention Society national registry (ORPKI) on all PCIs performed in Poland between January 2015 and December 2016. COPD was present in 5,594 of the 221,187 patients undergoing PCI. We assessed the frequency and predictors of periprocedural complications in PCI. Results Patients with COPD were elder individuals (70.3 ± 9.9 vs. 67 ± 10.8 years; p < 0.05). We noted 145 (2.6%) periprocedural complications in the COPD group and 4,121 (1.9%) in the non-COPD group (p < 0.001). The higher incidence of periprocedural complications in the COPD patients was mainly attributed to cardiac arrest (p = 0.001), myocardial infarctions (p = 0.002) and no-reflows (p < 0.001). COPD was not an independent predictor of all periprocedural complications. On the other hand, COPD was found to be an independent predictor of increased no-reflow risk (odds ratio [OR] 1.447, 95% CI 1.085–1.929; p = 0.01), and at the same time, of decreased risk of periprocedural allergic reactions (OR 0.117, 95% CI 0.016–0.837; p = 0.03). Conclusions In conclusion, periprocedural complications of PCIs are more frequent in patients with COPD. COPD is an independent positive predictor of no-reflow and a negative predictor of periprocedural allergic reactions.

Abstract
Background Systemic inflammation is the pathophysiological link between coronary artery disease (CAD) and COPD. However, the influence of subclinical COPD on patients with suspected or diagnosed CAD is largely unknown. Thus, this study was designed to evaluate the degree of coronary involvement in patients with COPD and suspected or confirmed CAD. Methods In this cross-sectional study, carried out between March 2015 and June 2017, 210 outpatients with suspected or confirmed CAD were examined by both spirometry and coronary angiography or multidetector computed tomography. These patients were divided into two groups: with and without COPD. Size, site, extent, and calcification of the coronary lesions, and the severity of COPD were analyzed. Results COPD patients (n = 101) presented with a higher frequency of obstructive coronary lesions ≥50% (n = 72, 71.3%), multivessels (n = 29, 28.7%), more lesions of the left coronary trunk (n = 18, 17.8%), and more calcified atherosclerotic plaques and higher Agatston coronary calcium score than the patients without COPD (P < 0.0001). The more severe the COPD in the Global Initiative for Obstructive Lung Disease stages, the more severe the CAD and the more calcified coronary plaques (P < 0.0001). However, there was no difference between the two groups with respect to the main risk factors for CAD. In the univariate analysis, COPD was an independent predictor of obstructive CAD (odds ratio [OR] 4.78; 95% confidence interval: 2.21–10.34; P < 0.001). Conclusion In patients with suspected CAD, comorbid COPD was associated with increased severity and extent of coronary lesions, calcific plaques, and elevated calcium score independent of the established risk factors for CAD. In addition, the more severe the COPD, the greater the severity of coronary lesions and calcification present.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is a frequent accompaniment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Co-occurrence of these two diseases is associated with many risk factors, difficulties in implementing appropriate therapies, numerous complications, and high spending for treatment. All these elements significantly reduce the quality of life of patients. The aim of this study was to estimate the expenditure for medications involved with IHD pharmacotherapy in the course of COPD. This retrospective study was based on the review of medical files of 57 patients, 27 women and 30 men, diagnosed with IHD, according to the severity classification, in the course of COPD which was staged according to the GOLD criteria. We found a considerable increase in per capita per year retail spending for drugs. The spending increased with the severity class of IHD; from 27.41 EUR in Class I to 142.30 EUR in Class IV. This spending did not include the treatment cost for the basic disease, i.e., COPD. A high individual cost burden was decreased by a discounting intervention of the National Health Fund. Despite a relatively high drug expenditure, we consider the treatment being cost-effective since we noticed a reduction in the classical risk factors for IHD, related to metabolic disturbances and lifestyle features, as soon as 2 months after treatment initiation. This study confirms that heart disease accompanying COPD is a frequent occurrence, generating high costs of treatment, which relates to the severity of this comorbidity.

Am J Cardiol 2017; 120:734-739.

Abstract
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a high risk of mortality after acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We compared STEMI patients with versus without COPD in terms of infarct size and left ventricular (LV) systolic function using advanced 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography. Of 1,750 patients with STEMI (mean age 61 ± 12 years, 76% male), 133 (7.6%) had COPD. With transthoracic echocardiography, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and wall motion score index were measured. Infarct size was assessed using biomarkers (creatine kinase and troponin T). LV global longitudinal strain (GLS), reflecting active LV myocardial deformation, was measured with 2-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography to estimate LV systolic function and infarct size. STEMI patients with COPD were significantly older, more likely to be former smokers, and had worse renal function compared with patients without COPD. There were no differences in infarct size based on peak levels of creatine kinase (1315 [613 to 2181] vs 1477 [682 to 3047] U/l, p = 0.106) and troponin T (3.3 [1.4 to 7.3] vs 3.9 [1.5 to 7.8] µg/l, p = 0.489). Left ventricular ejection fraction (46% vs 47%, p = 0.591) and wall motion score index (1.38 [1.25 to 1.66] vs 1.38 [1.19 to 1.69], p = 0.690) were comparable. In contrast, LV GLS was significantly more impaired in patients with COPD compared with patients without COPD (-13.9 ± 3.0% vs -14.7 ± 3.9%, p = 0.034). In conclusion, despite comparable myocardial infarct size and LV systolic function as assessed with biomarkers and conventional echocardiography, patients with COPD exhibit more impaired LV GLS on advanced echocardiography than patients without COPD, suggesting a greater functional impairment at an early stage after STEMI.

Abstract
Background Ischemic heart disease (IHD) and chronic airway disease (COPD and Asthma) are major epidemics accounting for significant mortality and morbidity. The combination presents many diagnostic challenges. Clinical symptoms and signs frequently overlap. There is a need for airway evaluation in these patients to plan appropriate management. Methods Consecutive stable IHD patients attending the cardiology OPD in a tertiary care centre were interviewed for collecting basic demographic information, brief medical, occupational, personal history and risk factors for coronary artery disease and airway disease, modified medical research centre (MMRC) grade for dyspnea, quality of life-St. George respiratory questionnaire (SGRQ), spirometry and six-min walk tests. Patients with chronic airway obstruction were treated as per guidelines and were followed up at 3rd month with spirometry, six-minute walk test and SGRQ. Results One hundred fourteen consecutive patients with stable cardiac disease were included (Males-88, Females-26). Mean age was 58.89 ± 12.24 years, 53.50% were smokers, 31.56% were alcoholics, 40.35% diabetics, 47.36% hypertensive. Twenty five patients had airway obstruction on spirometry (COPD-13 and Asthma-12) and none were on treatment. Thirty-one patients had cough and 48 patients had dyspnea. Patients with abnormal spirometry had higher symptoms, lower exercise tolerance and quality of life. Treatment with appropriate respiratory medications resulted in increase in lung function, quality of life and exercise tolerance at 3rd month. Conclusion Chronic respiratory disease in patients with stable IHD is frequent but often missed due to overlap of symptoms. Spirometry is a simple tool to recognize the underlying pulmonary condition and patients respond favorably with appropriate treatment

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a global health issue with high social and economic costs. Concomitant chronic cardiac disorders are frequent in patients with COPD, likely owing to shared risk factors (e.g., aging, cigarette smoke, inactivity, persistent low-grade pulmonary and systemic inflammation) and add to the overall morbidity and mortality of patients with COPD. The prevalence and incidence of cardiac comorbidities are higher in patients with COPD than in matched control subjects, although estimates of prevalence vary widely. Furthermore, cardiac diseases contribute to disease severity in patients with COPD, being a common cause of hospitalization and a frequent cause of death. The differential diagnosis may be challenging, especially in older and smoking subjects complaining of unspecific symptoms, such as dyspnea and fatigue. The therapeutic management of patients with cardiac and pulmonary comorbidities may be similarly challenging: bronchodilators may have cardiac side effects, and, vice versa, some cardiac medications should be used with caution in patients with lung disease. The aim of this review is to summarize the evidence of the relationship between COPD and the three most frequent and important cardiac comorbidities in patients with COPD: ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and atrial fibrillation. We have chosen a practical approach, first summarizing relevant epidemiological and clinical data, then discussing the diagnostic and screening procedures, and finally evaluating the impact of lung-heart comorbidities on the therapeutic management of patients with COPD and heart diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to systematically compare Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACEs) and mortality following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) in patients with and without Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases (COPD) through a meta-analysis. METHODS Electronic databases (Cochrane library, EMBASE and Medline/PubMed) were searched for English publications comparing in-hospital and long-term MACEs and mortality following PCI in patients with a past medical history of COPD. Statistical analysis was carried out by Revman 5.3 whereby Odds Ratio (OR) and 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) were considered the relevant parameters. RESULTS A total number of 72,969 patients were included (7518 patients with COPD and 65,451 patients without COPD). Results of this analysis showed that in-hospital MACEs were significantly higher in the COPD group with OR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.19-1.65; P = 0.0001, I2 = 0%. Long-term MACEs were still significantly higher in the COPD group with OR: 1.58, 95% CI: 1.38-1.81; P = 0.00001, I2 = 29%. Similarly, in-hospital and long-term mortality were significantly higher in patients with COPD, with OR: 2.25, 95% CI: 1.78-2.85; P = 0.00001, I2 = 0% and OR: 2.22, 95% CI: 1.33-3.71; P = 0.002, I2 = 97% respectively. However, the result for the long-term death was highly heterogeneous. CONCLUSION Since in-hospital and long-term MACEs and mortality were significantly higher following PCI in patients with versus without COPD, COPD should be considered a risk factor for the development of adverse clinical outcomes following PCI. However, the result for the long-term mortality was highly heterogeneous warranting further analysis.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with long-term all-cause death after percutaneous coronary intervention with bare-metal stents. Regarding other outcomes, previous studies have shown conflicting results and the impact of drug-eluting stent (DES) in this population is not well known. We analyzed 4,605 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with bare-metal stents (33.1%) or DES (66.9%) from the Basel Stent Kosten-Effektivitats Trial-Prospective Validation Examination trials I and II. COPD patients (n = 283, 6.1%), were older and had more frequently a smoking or cardiovascular event history. At 2-year follow-up, cumulative event rates for patients with versus without COPD were the following: major adverse cardiac events (MACE: composite of cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and target vessel revascularization): 15.2% versus 8.1% (p <0.001); all-cause death: 11.7% versus 2.4% (p <0.001); cardiac death: 5.7% versus 1.2% (p <0.001); myocardial infarction: 3.5% versus 1.9% (p = 0.045); definite/probable/possible stent thrombosis: 2.5% versus 0.9% (p = 0.01); and major bleeding: 4.2% versus 2.1% (p = 0.014). After adjusting for confounders including smoking status, COPD remained an independent predictor for MACE (hazard ratio [HR] 1.80, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.31 to 2.49), all-cause death (HR 3.62, 95% CI 2.41 to 5.45), cardiac death (HR 3.12, 95% CI 1.74 to 5.60), and stent thrombosis (HR 2.39, 95% CI 1.03 to 5.54). We did not find evidence of an interaction between COPD and DES implantation (p for interaction = 0.29) for MACE. In conclusion, COPD is associated with increased 2-year rates of all-cause death, cardiac death, and stent thrombosis after stent implantation. DES use appears to be beneficial also in patients with COPD.

Abstract
Objective. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between COPD and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods. 2,362 patients who underwent PCI were included in this study. Subjects were divided into 2 groups: with COPD (n = 233) and without COPD (n = 2,129). Cox proportional hazards models were analyzed to determine the effect of COPD on the incidence of MACCE. Results. The patients with COPD were older (P < 0.0001) and were more likely to be current smokers (P = 0.02) and have had hypertension (P = 0.02) and diabetes mellitus (P = 0.01). Prevalence of serious cardiovascular comorbidity was higher in the patients with COPD, including a history of MI (P = 0.02) and HF (P < 0.0001). Compared with non-COPD group, the COPD group showed a higher risk of all-cause death (hazard ratio (HR): 2.45, P < 0.0001), cardiac death (HR: 2.53, P = 0.0002), MI (HR: 1.387, P = 0.027), and HF (HR: 2.25, P < 0.0001). Conclusions. Patients with CAD and concomitant COPD are associated with a higher incidence of MACCE (all-cause death, cardiac death, MI, and HF) compared to patients without COPD. The patients with a history of COPD have higher in-hospital and long-term mortality rates than those without COPD after PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease often coexists with cardiovascular diseases and airflow limitation has been known as a risk of cardiovascular death. However, the association between airflow limitation and the history of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in patients with coronary stenosis remains to be determined. METHODS Study subjects were 271 consecutive patients (age: 70.6±9.5 years, sex: 200 males) who underwent coronary angiography and in whom organic coronary stenosis was detected. We collected spirometric data from those patients and investigated the association of the pulmonary function and the history of ACS. We also compared the prevalence of airflow limitation of the present subjects with Japanese epidemiological data that had been previously published. RESULTS Multivariate analysis with multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the reduced forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1.0) less than 80% of predicted value was significantly associated with a history of ACS (odds ratio: 2.81, 95% CI: 1.27-6.20, p<0.02) independently of age, sex, body mass index, and classic coronary risk factors including smoking habit, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Furthermore, the airflow limitation was more prevalent in the present subjects than in the Japanese general population (25.8% vs. 10.9%, p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Reduced FEV1.0 is associated with a history of ACS in patients with coronary arterial stenosis irrespective of any coronary risk factors. Airflow limitation is more prevalent in patients with coronary stenosis than in the general population.

Abstract
In the last few years, many studies focused their attention on the relationship between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and ischemic heart disease (IHD), showing that these diseases are mutually influenced. Many different biological processes such as hypoxia, systemic inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, heightened platelet reactivity, arterial stiffness and right ventricle modification interact in the development of the COPD-IHD comorbidity, which therefore deserves special attention in early diagnosis and treatment. Patients with COPD-IHD comorbidity have a worst outcome, when compared to patients with only COPD or only IHD. These patients showed a significant increase on risk of adverse events and of hospital readmissions for recurrent myocardial infarction, heart failure, coronary revascularization, and acute exacerbation of COPD. Taken together, these complications determine a significant increase in mortality. In most cases death occurs for cardiovascular cause, soon after an acute exacerbation of COPD or a cardiovascular adverse event. Recent data regarding incidence, mechanisms and prognosis of this comorbidity, along with the development of new drugs and interventional approaches may improve the management and long-term outcome of COPD-IHD patients. The aim of this review is to describe the current knowledge on COPD-IHD comorbidity. Particularly, we focused our attention on underlying pathological mechanisms and on all treatment and strategies that may improve and optimize the clinical management of COPD-IHD patients.

Abstract
Background People with COPD suffering from coronary artery disease are frequently treated with revascularization procedures. We aim to compare trends in the use and outcomes of these procedures in COPD and non-COPD patients in Spain between 2001 and 2011. Methods We identified all patients who had undergone percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgeries, using national hospital discharge data. Discharges were grouped into: COPD and no COPD. Results From 2001 to 2011, 428,516 PCIs and 79,619 CABGs were performed. The sex and age-adjusted use of PCI increased by 21.27% per year from 2001 to 2004 and by 5.47% per year from 2004 to 2011 in patients with COPD. In-hospital mortality (IHM) among patients with COPD who underwent a PCI increased significantly from 2001 to 2011 (odds ratio 1.11; 95% confidence interval 1.03–1.20). Among patients with COPD who underwent a CABG, the sex and age-adjusted CABG incidence rate increased by 9.77% per year from 2001 to 2003, and then decreased by 3.15% through 2011. The probability of dying during hospitalization in patients who underwent a CABG did not change significantly in patients with and without COPD (odds ratio, 1.06; 95% confidence interval 0.96–1.17). Conclusion The annual percent change in PCI procedures increased in COPD and non-COPD patients. We found a decrease in the use of CABG procedures in both groups. IHM was higher in patients with COPD who underwent a PCI than in those without COPD. However, COPD did not increase the probability of dying during hospitalization in patients who underwent a CABG.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in patients with atrial fibrillation: Insights from the ARISTOTLE trial. Int J Cardiol 2015; 202:589-94.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Comorbid chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with poor outcomes among patients with cardiovascular disease. The risks of stroke and mortality associated with COPD among patients with atrial fibrillation are not well understood. METHODS We analyzed patients from ARISTOTLE, a randomized trial of 18,201 patients with atrial fibrillation comparing the effects of apixaban versus warfarin on the risk of stroke or systemic embolism. Using Cox proportional hazards models, we assessed the associations between comorbid COPD and risk of stroke or systemic embolism and of mortality, adjusting for treatment allocation, smoking history and other risk factors. RESULTS COPD was present in 1950 (10.8%) of 18,134 patients with data on pulmonary disease history. After multivariable adjustment, COPD was not associated with risk of stroke or systemic embolism (adjusted HR 0.85 [95% CI 0.60, 1.21], p=0.356). However, COPD was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted HR 1.60 [95% CI 1.36, 1.88], p<0.001) and both cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality. The benefit of apixaban over warfarin on stroke or systemic embolism was consistent among patients with and without COPD (HR 0.92 [95% CI 0.52, 1.63] versus 0.78 [95% CI 0.65, 0.95], interaction p=0.617). CONCLUSIONS COPD was independently associated with increased risk of cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality among patients with atrial fibrillation, but was not associated with risk of stroke or systemic embolism. The effect of apixaban on stroke or systemic embolism in COPD patients was consistent with its effect in the overall trial population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retrospective studies based on clinical data and without spirometric confirmation suggest a poorer prognosis of patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The impact of undiagnosed COPD in these patients is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of COPD - previously or newly diagnosed - in patients with IHD treated with PCI. METHODS Patients with IHD confirmed by PCI were consecutively included. After PCI they underwent forced spirometry and evaluation for cardiovascular risk factors. All-cause mortality, new cardiovascular events, and their combined endpoint were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 133 patients (78%) male, with a mean (SD) age of 63 (10.12) years were included. Of these, 33 (24.8%) met the spirometric criteria for COPD, of whom 81.8% were undiagnosed. IHD patients with COPD were older, had more coronary vessels affected, and a greater history of previous myocardial infarction. Median follow-up was 934 days (interquartile range [25%-75%]: 546-1,160). COPD patients had greater mortality (P=0.008; hazard ratio [HR]: 8.85; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.76-44.47) and number of cardiovascular events (P=0.024; HR: 1.87; 95% CI: 1.04-3.33), even those without a previous diagnosis of COPD (P=0.01; HR: 1.78; 95% CI: 1.12-2.83). These differences remained after adjustment for sex, age, number of coronary vessels affected, and previous myocardial infarction (P=0.025; HR: 1.83; 95% CI: 1.08-3.1). CONCLUSION Prevalence and underdiagnosis of COPD in patients with IHD who undergo PCI are both high. These patients have an independent greater mortality and a higher number of cardiovascular events during follow-up.

Abstract
RATIONALE Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) suffer from significantly more cardiovascular comorbidity and mortality than would be anticipated from conventional risk factors. The aim of this study was to determine whether COPD patients have a higher coronary artery calcium score (CACS) and epicardial fat burden, compared to control subjects, and their association with cardiovascular events. METHODS From a registry of 1906 patients 81 patients with clinically diagnosed COPD were one-to-one matched to 81 non-COPD control subjects with a smoking history, according to their age, sex, and the number of classic cardiovascular risk factors (arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, family history of premature coronary artery disease). CACS, epicardial fat, and subsequent major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) during follow-up were compared between groups. RESULTS Patients with COPD (Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease-classification I: 5%, II: 23%, III: 16% and IV: 56%) showed no difference in CACS (median difference 68 Agatston Units [95% confidence interval -176.5 to 192.5], p=0.899) or epicardial fat volume (mean difference -0.5 cm3 [95% confidence interval -20.9 to 21.9], p=0.961) compared with controls. After a median follow-up of 42.6 months a higher incidence of MACE was observed in COPD patients (RR=2.80, p=0.016) compared with controls. Cox proportional hazard regression identified cardiac ischemias and CACS as independent predictors for MACE. CONCLUSION COPD patients experienced a higher MACE incidence compared to controls despite no baseline differences in coronary calcification and epicardial fat burden. Other mechanisms such as undersupply of medication seem to account for an excess cardiovascular comorbidity in COPD patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aboriginal Australians have a substantially higher frequency of ischaemic heart disease (IHD) events than their non-Aboriginal counterparts, together with a higher prevalence of comorbidities. The pattern of health service provision for IHD suggests inequitable delivery of important diagnostic procedures. Published data on disparities in IHD management among Aboriginal Australians are conflicting, and the role of comorbidities has not been adequately delineated. We compared the profiles of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal patients in the metropolitan area undergoing emergency IHD admissions at Western Australian metropolitan hospitals, and investigated the determinants of receiving coronary angiography. METHODS Person-linked administrative hospital and mortality records were used to identify 28-day survivors of IHD emergency admission events (n =20,816) commencing at metropolitan hospitals in 2005-09. The outcome measure was receipt of angiography. The Aboriginal to non-Aboriginal risk ratio (RR) was estimated from a multivariable Poisson log-linear regression model with allowance for multiple IHD events in individuals. The subgroup of myocardial infarction (MI) events was modelled separately. RESULTS Compared with their non-Aboriginal counterparts, Aboriginal IHD patients were younger and more likely to have comorbidities. In the age- and sex-adjusted model, Aboriginal patients were less likely than others to receive angiography (RRIHD 0.77, 95% CI 0.72-0.83; RRMI 0.81, 95% CI 0.75-0.87) but in the full multivariable model this disparity was accounted for by comorbidities as well as IHD category and MI subtype, and private health insurance (RRIHD 0.95, 95% CI 0.89-1.01; RRMI 0.94, 95% CI 0.88-1.01). When stratified by age groups, this disparity was not significant in the 25-54 year age group (RRMI 0.95, 95% CI 0.88-1.02) but was significant in the 55-84 year age group (RRMI 0.88, 95% CI 0.77-0.99). CONCLUSIONS The disproportionate under-management of older Aboriginal IHD patients is of particular concern. Regardless of age, the disparity between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal Australians in receiving angiography for acute IHD in a metropolitan setting is mediated substantially by comorbidities. This constellation of health problems is a 'double-whammy' for Aboriginal people, predisposing them to IHD and also adversely impacting on their receipt of angiography. Further research should investigate how older age and comorbidities influence clinical decision making in this context.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is often associated with cardiovascular diseases, such as pulmonary hypertension, ischemic heart disease, arrhythmias or heart failure. These co-morbidities may cause diagnostic or therapeutic difficulties and significantly worsen the morbidity and mortality of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. In this work the author reviews special considerations for the treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who have cardiovascular co-morbidities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the effects of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) and to determine the factors associated with worse outcomes in COPD patients. BACKGROUND No data exist on the factors determining poorer outcomes in COPD patients undergoing TAVI. METHODS A total of 319 consecutive patients (29.5% with COPD) who underwent TAVI were studied. Functional status was evaluated by New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class, Duke Activity Status Index, and the 6-min walk test (6MWT) at baseline and at 6 to 12 months. The TAVI treatment was considered futile if the patient either died or did not improve in NYHA functional class at 6-month follow-up. RESULTS Survival rates at 1 year were 70.6% in COPD patients and 84.5% in patients without COPD (p = 0.008). COPD was an independent predictor of cumulative mortality after TAVI (hazard ratio: 1.84; 95% confidence interval: 1.08 to 3.13; p = 0.026). Improvement in functional status was observed after TAVI (p < 0.001 for NYHA functional class, Duke Activity Status Index, and 6MWT), but COPD patients exhibited less (p = 0.036) improvement in NYHA functional class. Among COPD patients, a shorter 6MWT distance predicted cumulative mortality (p = 0.013), whereas poorer baseline spirometry results (FEV1 [forced expiratory volume in the first second of expiration]) determined a higher rate of periprocedural pulmonary complications (p = 0.040). The TAVI treatment was futile in 40 COPD patients (42.5%) and a baseline 6MWT distance <170 m best determined the lack of benefit after TAVI (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS COPD was associated with a higher rate of mortality at mid-term follow-up. Among COPD patients, a higher degree of airway obstruction and a lower exercise capacity determined a higher risk of pulmonary complications and mortality, respectively. TAVI was futile in more than one-third of the COPD patients, and a shorter distance walked at the 6MWT predicted the lack of benefit after TAVI. These results may help to improve the clinical decision-making process in this challenging group of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Systemic inflammation plays an important role in both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and coronary artery disease (CAD). The purpose of the present study was to assess the association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), a biomarker of systemic inflammation, with in-hospital outcomes in patients with COPD undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS A total of 378 patients with COPD who were treated with PCI from January 2007 through January 2012, were divided into two groups according to hs-CRP level at admission. Demographics, clinical, angiographic data and in-hospital outcomes were compared. RESULTS Patients with elevated hs-CRP (≥3 mg/L) were more likely to be female and current smokers, had more severe airflow limitation, more hypertension, diabetes and cardiac dysfunction and had increased incidence of three-vessel disease and more type C lesions. Subjects with elevated hs-CRP were also less likely to have been prescribed with statins and B-blockers, perhaps. Rate of in-hospital composite major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) was higher (15.5% vs. 8.2%, P = 0.041) and hospital stay was longer (8.2 ± 2.0 vs. 7.5 ± 1.7 days, P < 0. 001) in patients with elevated hs-CRP. A combined analysis of MACE on the basis of airflow limitation and hs-CRP showed an exaggerated hazard ratio in the presence of both severe airflow limitation and elevated hs-CRP. In a multivariate analysis, elevated periprocedural hs-CRP was independently related with MACEs and hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS Elevated periprocedural hs-CRP is independently and additively related with increased incidence of in-hospital adverse outcomes in COPD patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Impairment of renal function is associated with adverse outcome in various diseases. Patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) show diminished cardiac function and organ perfusion. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations between renal function and both haemodynamic parameters and long-term survival in patients with PH. METHODS Blood was collected from 64 patients with PH (Dana Point class 1, 3 and 4) during right heart catheterization, and plasma was prepared. Creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), cystatin C, neutrophil-gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) and α-Klotho levels were determined, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was estimated (eGFR). Parameters were evaluated using c-statistics and dichotomized for survival analysis based on receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 9.92 years with all-cause mortality as the primary end-point. Elevated BUN, cystatin C and creatinine levels were associated with decreased survival, with hazard ratios (HRs) of 3.237, 4.514 and 2.006, respectively, and equivalent performance according to c-statistics. Estimating GFR by CKD-EPI, MDRD and Cockcroft-Gault formulas resulted in HRs of 2.942, 2.694 and 3.306, respectively. Amongst these formulas, eGFR (Cockcroft-Gault) had the highest c-statistics of 0.674. There was a correlation between BUN and both cardiac index (τ = -0.39) and pulmonary vascular resistance index (τ = 0.249), whereas eGFR (CKD-EPI) was correlated with cardiac index (τ = 0.225). No correlations between either BUN or eGFR and right atrial pressure (RAP) were observed. NGAL, FGF-23 and α-Klotho had no prognostic impact or association with haemodynamic parameters. CONCLUSION Comparison of markers of renal function for prognosis in PH demonstrated superiority of creatinine, cystatin C and BUN over NGAL, FGF-23 and α-Klotho. Minor decreases in eGFR influence long-term prognosis, and measurement of cystatin C levels might be useful to detect renal impairment in patients with a normal serum concentration of creatinine. Renal function in patients with PH is linked to cardiac index rather than RAP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is common among patients with COPD. However, it is not clear whether this is due to shared risk factors or if COPD increases the risk for CVD independently. This study aimed to provide a systematic review of studies that investigated the association between COPD and CVD outcomes, assessing any effect of confounding by common risk factors. METHODS A search was conducted in MEDLINE (via PubMed) for observational studies published between January 1990 and March 2012 reporting cardiovascular comorbidity in patients with COPD (or vice versa). RESULTS Of the 7,322 citations identified, 25 studies were relevant for this systematic review. Twenty-two studies provided an estimate for CVD risk in COPD, whereas four studies provided estimates of COPD risk in CVD. The crude prevalence for the aggregate CVD category ranged from 28% to 70%, likely due to differences in populations studied and CVD definitions; unadjusted rate ratio (RR) estimates of unspecified CVD among patients with COPD compared with patients without COPD ranged from 2.1 to 5.0. The association between COPD and CVD persisted after adjustment for shared risk factors in the majority of the studies. Two studies found a relationship between the severity of airflow limitation and CVD risk. Increased RRs were observed for individual CVD types, but their estimates varied considerably for congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, arrhythmias, stroke, arterial hypertension, and peripheral arterial disease. CONCLUSIONS Available observational data support the hypothesis that COPD is associated with an increased risk of CVD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although chronic lung disease (CLD) is common among patients with myocardial infarction (MI), little is known about the influence of CLD on patient management and outcomes following MI. METHODS Using the National Cardiovascular Data Registry's ACTION Registry-GWTG, demographics, clinical characteristics, treatments, processes of care, and in-hospital adverse events after acute MI were compared between patients with (n = 22,624) and without (n = 136,266) CLD. Multivariable adjustment was performed to determine the independent association of CLD with treatments and adverse events. RESULTS CLD (17.0% of non-ST-elevation MI [NSTEMI] and 10.1% of ST-elevation MI [STEMI] patients) was associated with older age, female sex, and a greater burden of comorbidities. Among NSTEMI patients, those with CLD were less likely to undergo cardiac catheterization, percutaneous coronary intervention, and coronary artery bypass graft compared to those without; in contrast, no differences were seen in invasive therapies for STEMI patients with or without CLD. Multivariable-adjusted risk of major bleeding was significantly increased in CLD patients with NSTEMI (13.0% vs 8.1%, OR(adj) = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.20-1.34, P < .001) and STEMI (16.0% vs 10.5%, OR(adj) = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.10-1.29, P < .001). In NSTEMI, CLD was associated with a higher risk of inhospital mortality (OR(adj) = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.11-1.33); in STEMI no association between CLD and mortality was seen (OR(adj) = 1.05, 95% CI = 0.95-1.17). CONCLUSIONS CLD is common among patients with MI and is independently associated with an increased risk for major bleeding. In NSTEMI, CLD is also associated with receiving less revascularization and with increased in-hospital mortality. Special attention should be given to this high-risk subgroup for the prevention and management of complications after MI.

Coronary artery disease is under-diagnosed and under-treated in advanced lung disease. Am J Med 2012; 125:1228.e13-1228.e22. [PMID: 22959785 PMCID: PMC3732035 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjmed.2012.05.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2012] [Revised: 05/23/2012] [Accepted: 05/24/2012] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary artery disease is a potentially treatable comorbidity observed frequently in both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and interstitial lung disease. The prevalence of angiographically proven coronary artery disease in advanced lung disease is not well described. We sought to characterize the treatment patterns of coronary artery disease complicating advanced lung disease and to describe the frequency of occult coronary artery disease in this population. METHODS We performed a 2-center, retrospective cross-sectional study of patients with either chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or interstitial lung disease evaluated for lung transplantation. Medications and diagnoses before the transplant evaluation were recorded in conjunction with left heart catheterization results. RESULTS Of 473 subjects, 351 had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and 122 had interstitial lung disease. In subjects diagnosed clinically with coronary artery disease, medical regimens included a statin in 78%, antiplatelet therapy in 62%, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin receptor blocker in 42%, and a beta-blocker in 37%. Ten percent were on no medication from these 4 classes. Fifty-seven percent of these subjects were on an antiplatelet agent as well as a statin, and 13% were on neither. Beta-blockers were less frequently prescribed in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease than interstitial lung disease (23% vs 58%, P=.007). Coronary angiography was available in 322 subjects. It demonstrated coronary artery disease in 60% of subjects, and severe coronary artery disease in 16%. Occult coronary artery disease and severe occult coronary artery disease were found in 53% and 9%, respectively. There were no significant differences in angiographic results between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and interstitial lung disease, despite imbalanced risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Coronary artery disease is common in patients with advanced lung disease attributable to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or interstitial lung disease and is under-diagnosed. Guideline-recommended cardioprotective medications are suboptimally utilized in this population.

Effect of bisoprolol on respiratory function and exercise capacity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Am J Cardiol 2012; 110:258-63.

Abstract
Cardioselective β blockers are considered to have little impact on lung function at rest in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, their effects on dynamic hyperinflation, an important mechanism contributing to symptoms and exercise tolerance in patients with COPD, have not been evaluated. Twenty-seven patients with moderate to severe COPD (forced expiratory volume in 1 second 52 ± 13% predicted) completed pulmonary function tests, echocardiography, maximal exercise tests, and cycle endurance tests at baseline. Inspiratory capacity was measured at 2-minute intervals during the cycle endurance test to quantify dynamic hyperinflation. Pulmonary function and cycle endurance testing were repeated after 14 days of bisoprolol 10 mg/day and 14 days of placebo in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial. The extent of dynamic hyperinflation at peak isotime exercise with bisoprolol and placebo was compared. Peak isotime was defined as the latest time point that was reached during the 2 cycle endurance tests. Changes in inspiratory capacity from rest to peak isotime were different with bisoprolol compared to placebo (-0.50 ± 0.35 vs -0.41 ± 0.33 L, p = 0.01). Exercise duration tended to be lower with bisoprolol compared to placebo (305 ± 125 vs 353 ± 172 seconds, p = 0.11). The magnitude of change in exercise duration between the bisoprolol and placebo conditions was correlated with the magnitude of change in inspiratory capacity (r = 0.57, p <0.01). In conclusion, bisoprolol was associated with modest worsening dynamic hyperinflation, whereas exercise duration remained unchanged in patients with moderate to severe COPD. The magnitude of these effects was small and should not contraindicate the use of bisoprolol in patients with COPD.
