Abstract
Mitochondrial impairment has been associated with the development of insulin resistance, the hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, the relationship between mitochondrial impairment and insulin resistance is not fully elucidated due to insufficient evidence to support the hypothesis. Insulin resistance and insulin deficiency are both characterised by excessive production of reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial coupling. Compelling evidence states that improving the function of the mitochondria may provide a positive therapeutic tool for improving insulin sensitivity. There has been a rapid increase in reports of the toxic effects of drugs and pollutants on the mitochondria in recent decades, interestingly correlating with an increase in insulin resistance prevalence. A variety of drug classes have been reported to potentially induce toxicity in the mitochondria leading to skeletal muscle, liver, central nervous system, and kidney injury. With the increase in diabetes prevalence and mitochondrial toxicity, it is therefore imperative to understand how mitochondrial toxicological agents can potentially compromise insulin sensitivity. This review article aims to explore and summarise the correlation between potential mitochondrial dysfunction caused by selected pharmacological agents and its effect on insulin signalling and glucose handling. Additionally, this review highlights the necessity for further studies aimed to understand drug-induced mitochondrial toxicity and the development of insulin resistance.

Crosstalk between neurological, cardiovascular, and lifestyle disorders: insulin and lipoproteins in the lead role. Pharmacol Rep 2022; 74:790-817. [PMID: 36149598 DOI: 10.1007/s43440-022-00417-5] [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: 07/31/2022] [Revised: 09/03/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
Insulin resistance and impaired lipoprotein metabolism contribute to a plethora of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders. These alterations have been extensively linked with poor lifestyle choices, such as consumption of a high-fat diet, smoking, stress, and a redundant lifestyle. Moreover, these are also known to increase the co-morbidity of diseases like Type 2 diabetes mellitus and atherosclerosis. Under normal physiological conditions, insulin and lipoproteins exert a neuroprotective role in the central nervous system. However, the tripping of balance between the periphery and center may alter the normal functioning of the brain and lead to neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, stroke, depression, and multiple sclerosis. These neurological disorders are further characterized by certain behavioral and molecular changes that show consistent overlap with alteration in insulin and lipoprotein signaling pathways. Therefore, targeting these two mechanisms not only reveals a way to manage the co-morbidities associated with the circle of the metabolic, central nervous system, and cardiovascular disorders but also exclusively work as a disease-modifying therapy for neurological disorders. In this review, we summarize the role of insulin resistance and lipoproteins in the progression of various neurological conditions and discuss the therapeutic options currently in the clinical pipeline targeting these two mechanisms; in addition, challenges faced in designing these therapeutic approaches have also been touched upon briefly.

Prognostic Significance of Plasma Insulin Level for Deep Venous Thrombosis in Patients with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury in Critical Care. Neurocrit Care 2022; 38:263-278. [PMID: 36114315 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-022-01588-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/10/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether insulin resistance underlies deep venous thrombosis (DVT) development in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is unclear. In this study, the association between plasma insulin levels and DVT was analyzed in patients with severe TBI. METHODS A prospective observational study of 73 patients measured insulin, glucose, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), inflammatory factors, and hematological profiles within four preset times during the first 14 days after TBI. Ultrasonic surveillance of DVT was tracked. Two-way analysis of variance was used to determine the factors that discriminated between patients with and without DVT or with and without insulin therapy. Partial correlations of insulin level with all the variables were conducted separately in patients with DVT or patients without DVT. Factors associated with DVT were analyzed by multivariable logistic regression. Neurological outcomes 6 months after TBI were assessed. RESULTS Among patients with a mean (± standard deviation) age of 53 (± 16 years), DVT developed in 20 patients (27%) on median 10.4 days (range 4-22), with higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores but similar Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores and TBI severity. Patients with DVT were more likely to receive insulin therapy than patients without DVT (60% vs. 28%; P = 0.012); hence, they had higher 14-day insulin levels. However, insulin levels were comparable between patients with DVT and patients without DVT in the subgroups of patients with insulin therapy (n = 27) and patients without insulin therapy (n = 46). The platelet profile significantly discriminated between patients with and without DVT. Surprisingly, none of the coagulation profiles, blood cell counts, or inflammatory mediators differed between the two groups. Patients with insulin therapy had significantly higher insulin (P = 0.006), glucose (P < 0.001), and GLP-1 (P = 0.01) levels and were more likely to develop DVT (60% vs. 15%; P < 0.001) along with concomitant platelet depletion. Insulin levels correlated with glucose, GLP-1 levels, and platelet count exclusively in patients without DVT. Conversely, in patients with DVT, insulin correlated negatively with GLP-1 levels (P = 0.016). Age (P = 0.01) and elevated insulin levels at days 4-7 (P = 0.04) were independently associated with DVT. Patients with insulin therapy also showed worse Glasgow Outcome Scale scores (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Elevated insulin levels in the first 14 days after TBI may indicate insulin resistance, which is associated with platelet hyperactivity, and thus increasing the risk of DVT.

Abstract
Aim Insulin resistance was reported to increase the risk of ischemic stroke, which can be assessed by the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index. However, it remains unclear whether the TyG index influences the platelet reactivity during the treatment of ischemic patients. Methods Ischemic stroke patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) within 48 h onset were consecutively included. The TyG index was calculated as ln (fasting triglyceride [mg/dL] × fasting glucose [mg/dL]/2). The top quartile of TyG index was defined as insulin resistance. The platelet reactivity was assessed by thromboelastography. The platelet inhibition rate induced by arachidonic acid (AA) or adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was used to confirm the high residual on-treatment platelet reactivity (HRPR) to aspirin or clopidogrel, respectively. The association between TyG index and platelet reactivity was assessed by Kruskal–Wallis test. The independent risk factors of HRPR were determined by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 1002 patients were included and divided into 4 groups by quartiles of the TyG index (< 2.02; 2.02–2.27; 2.27–2.52; ≥2.52). The findings demonstrated that the maximum intensity of the clot increased, but the AA-induced platelet inhibition rate decreased, depending on the TyG index quartiles. No significant difference was found in the ADP-induced platelet inhibition rate among groups. The prevalence of aspirin HRPR increased depending on the TyG index quartile. Unlike the non-insulin resistance group, the insulin resistance group was independently associated with aspirin HRPR (OR = 1.689, 95% CI 1.14 to 2.51, P = 0.009). Conclusions In acute ischemic stroke patients taking DAPT, the elevation of the TyG index is associated with enhanced platelet reactivity and higher prevalence of aspirin HRPR. Insulin resistance assessed by the TyG index could be an independent risk factor for aspirin HRPR.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine whether platelet hyperaggregability correlates with short closure times (PFA-100) and if hyperaggregability is associated with the risk of venous thrombosis in a Spanish population. Case--control study (RETROVE project) involving 400 patients with venous thrombosis and 400 healthy controls. We determined platelet aggregation in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) by light transmission aggregometry. Various concentrations of two aggregation agonists [ADP and epinephrine (EPI)] were tested to determine the percentage of maximal aggregation and the percentage area under the curve (AUC). Venous thrombosis risk associated with platelet hyperaggregability was calculated by logistic regression. We estimated the crude and adjusted (by sex and age) odds ratios (OR) for venous thrombosis risk. An agonist concentration of 0.5 μmol/l differentiated between hypo-responders and hyper-responders at the following AUC cut-off values: EPI: the 50th percentile for aggregation with 0.5 μmol/l of EPI (EPI_AUC) was 22.53% (>22.53% = hyper-EPI); the crude risk for venous thrombosis was statistically significant (OR = 1.37; 95% CI 1.03-1.82); ADP: the 75th percentile for aggregation with 0.5 μmol/l of ADP (ADP_AUC) was 29.6% (>29.6% = hyper-ADP), with a significant crude risk for venous thrombosis (OR = 1.44; 95% CI 1.05-1.98). However, after adjustment for confounders (age), the ORs for EPI or ADP aggregation were no longer significant. EPI_AUC and PFA-100 values with the EPI agonist were significantly correlated (R = -0.342, P < 0.01). Only 12% of the PFA-100 values were explained by platelet aggregation. In this case--control study, platelet hyperaggregability was not associated with the risk of developing venous thrombosis.

Abstract
Objective: This study aims to discover whether insulin resistance is an independent predictor for antiplatelet drug resistance in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Methods: This study used a prospective cohort method. Patients diagnosed as minor ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) were enrolled successively. All patients have been administrated aspirin and/or clopidogrel and were tested for fasting glucose and insulin and platelet aggregation inhibition tests which was detected by light transmission aggregometry (LTA). The maximum platelet aggregation rate (AA) of ≥20% or the maximum platelet aggregation rate (ADP) of ≥50% was defined as antiplatelet drug resistance. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to estimate the association between HOMA-IR and antiplatelet drug resistance.Results: This study recruited successively 237 patients with mild-to-moderate ischemic stroke or TIA in Beijing Tiantan Hospital from 2018 to 2019. Of them 60 cases were recognized as having insulin resistance. There are 46 patients in insulin resistance group (76.7%) developed antiplatelet drug resistance, which was significantly more frequent than patients without insulin resistance (35%, P < 0.0001). Insulin resistance was an independent risk factor for antiplatelet drug resistance in patients with recent ischemic stroke/TIA after adjusted for confounding factors (Odds Ratio 5.281; 95%CI, 2.15 to 13.01, P < 0.0001).Conclusions: Insulin resistance was an independent predictor for development of antiplatelet drug resistance in patients with recent minor ischemic stroke or TIA. More attention should be paid to recognize these patients and antithrombotic effect should be monitored when antiplatelet drugs were applied to these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes mellitus (DM) had been discovered as an independent risk factor for high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) in patients with ischemic stroke. However, studies on the relationship between prediabetes and the occurrence of HPR remain scarce. This study is aimed at clarifying the association between prediabetes and HPR among patients with recent ischemic stroke or transient ischemic stroke (TIA). METHODS Patients with ischemic stroke or TIA within 90 days after onset were recruited consecutively. All patients were divided into three groups: DM, prediabetes, and normal glucose tolerance according to fasting glucose, HbA1c, or OGTT. Three months later, all patients were performed platelet aggregation inhibition test and screened for high on-treatment platelet reactivity. The effect of prediabetes on HPR was analyzed in a multivariable logistic regression model. RESULTS This study recruited 237 patients with ischemic stroke or TIA, including 57 cases with prediabetes, 108 with DM, and 72 with normal glucose tolerance. Aspirin and/or clopidogrel resistance was discovered in 28 cases among prediabetes group, which was significantly more frequent than normal glucose tolerance group(49.1% versus 33.3%, P = 0.046). After adjusting for confounding factors, prediabetes was found as an independent risk factor for high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) among patients with recent ischemic stroke or TIA (odds ratio 2.92; 95% CI, 1.29 to 6.63, P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Prediabetes was an independent risk factor for high on-treatment platelet reactivity in patients with recent ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Patients with prediabetes should be highlighted for the efficacy test of antiplatelet drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus, largely type 2, affects nearly 10% of the global adult population according to the World Health Organization. Diabetes is an independent risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease. Diabetes patients experience a two to three-fold increased incidence of coronary artery disease, despite improved metabolic control and management of other cardiovascular risk factors. DISCUSSION Platelet abnormalities and activation as well as reduced antiplatelet drug responsiveness characterise diabetes mellitus. Mechanisms linking diabetes to platelet and vascular abnormalities, atherogenesis and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease are still only partially known, highlighting the unique complexity of the pro-atherogenic clinical scenario and its treatment. Consistently, a higher residual cardiovascular risk characterises patients with diabetes compared with those without, in spite of improved antiplatelet and antithrombotic treatment combinations. Randomised clinical trials aimed at optimising antiplatelet treatment specifically in patients with diabetes are lacking, both in acute and chronic coronary artery disease settings. Thus, patients with diabetes are treated with regimens validated in studies including only variable proportions of diabetes patients. Myocardial revascularisation appears to confer a comparable relative benefit between diabetes patients and patients without diabetes, and generally coronary artery bypass grafting has a better outcome in diabetes mellitus versus peripheral coronary intervention. New glucose-lowering drugs have been shown to reduce the incidence of major cardiovascular events in secondary prevention. Type 1 diabetes mellitus remains less explored than type 2 in this context. CONCLUSION Diabetes-tailored antithrombotic strategies in acute and chronic coronary artery disease remain an unmet clinical need, requiring ad-hoc trials and precision pharmacological strategies.

Abstract
Background: The triglyceride glucose index (TyG index) has been proposed as a simple and credible surrogate marker of insulin resistance. However, it is unclear whether TyG index correlates with adverse clinical outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke. Accordingly, this study aimed to explore the relationship between baseline TyG index and clinical outcomes of ischemic stroke individuals. Methods: We included eligible subjects with ischemic stroke from the China National Stroke Registry II for the current analysis. TyG index was calculated and divided into quartiles to explore the relationship with the outcomes of ischemic stroke. Outcomes included stroke recurrence, all-cause mortality, poor functional outcome at 12 months, and neurologic worsening at discharge. Multivariable Cox regression and logistic regression models were performed to explore the correlation of baseline TyG index with the outcomes. Results: Among the 16,310 patients enrolled in the study, the average age was 64.83 ± 11.9 years, and 63.48% were men. The median TyG index was 8.73 (interquartile range, 8.33-9.21). After adjustment for multiple potential covariates, the fourth quartile of TyG index was associated with an increased risk of stroke recurrence (adjusted HR, 1.32; 95% CI, 1.11-1.57; P = 0.002), all-cause mortality (adjusted HR, 1.25; 95%CI, 1.06-1.47; P = 0.01) at 12-month follow-up, and neurological worsening (adjusted OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.02-1.55; P = 0.03) at discharge, but not poor functional outcome compared with the first quartile. Conclusion: TyG index representing insulin resistance was associated with an increased risk of stroke recurrence, all-cause mortality, and neurologic worsening in patients with ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Although the improved control of hyperglycaemia and other cardiovascular risk factors was associated with a parallel decline of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and death in both type 1 (T1) and type 2 (T2) diabetes mellitus (DM), the burden of death and hospitalization for ASCVD remains significantly higher by about 2-fold versus the matched non-DM population. Life style interventions, such as physical activity and healthy diet, and drugs, such as statins and low-dose aspirin, may have beneficial effects by targeting one or multiple pathways responsible for accelerated atherosclerosis and its thrombotic complications. The debate on the benefit-risk balance of primary cardiovascular prevention with aspirin has been especially vivacious over the past two years, following the publication of three large randomized, placebo-controlled, primary prevention trials in different settings, spanning from healthy elderly to DM subjects. The aim of this review is to discuss the pathophysiological, pharmacological and clinical evidence supporting the appropriate use of low-dose aspirin in DM, within the context of the current multifactorial approach to primary cardiovascular prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glycemic control is essential for managing acute stroke. This study evaluated the impact of a diabetes-specific formula (DSF) on glycemic control in severe acute ischemic stroke patients. METHODS A randomized, prospective controlled trial was conducted in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital. Acute ischemic stroke patients who scored > 10 on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale as well as had swallowing problems were randomized to group A, which received a diabetes-specific enteral formula, and group B, which received a standard formula. Glycemic parameters were assessed at baseline and 7 days after admission. RESULTS One hundred four patients were enrolled in the study (group A, 53; group B, 51). Postprandial glucose parameters, including capillary glucose concentration from 8 hours to 16 hours after enteral nutrition (EN) consumption, incremental areas under the curve (iAUC0-16 h ), peak value, and mean glucose concentration, were significantly lower in group A than in group B following a 7-day intervention period. Moreover, changes in HOMAIR after the 7-day treatment were significantly higher in group A than in group B. No significant difference in the incidence of hypoglycemia, glycemic variability parameters, or nutrition parameters was found between the 2 groups, either at baseline or after treatment. There were no serious adverse events observed during the study. CONCLUSION A diabetes-specific formula may improve acute-term glycemic control in severe acute ischemic stroke patients.

Abstract
Insulin resistance often refers to a pathological condition in which cells fail to respond to the normal actions of insulin. Increasing literature has noted a critical role of insulin resistance in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Insulin resistance plays an important role in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke via enhancing advanced changes of atherosclerosis. A variety of literature indicates that insulin resistance enhances platelet adhesion, activation and aggregation which are conducive to the occurrence of ischemic stroke. Insulin resistance also induces hemodynamic disturbances and contributes to the onset of ischemic stroke. In addition, insulin resistance may augment the role of the modifiable risk factors in ischemic stroke and induce the occurrence of ischemic stroke. Preclinical and clinical studies have supported that improving insulin resistance may be an effective measure to prevent or delay ischemic stroke.

Thrombin Receptor-Activating Protein (TRAP)-Activated Akt Is Involved in the Release of Phosphorylated-HSP27 (HSPB1) from Platelets in DM Patients. Int J Mol Sci 2016; 17:ijms17050737. [PMID: 27187380 PMCID: PMC4881559 DOI: 10.3390/ijms17050737] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2016] [Revised: 05/09/2016] [Accepted: 05/10/2016] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
It is generally known that heat shock protein 27 (HSP27) is phosphorylated through p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. We have previously reported that HSP27 is released from human platelets associated with collagen-induced phosphorylation. In the present study, we conducted an investigation into the effect of thrombin receptor-activating protein (TRAP) on the release of HSP27 in platelets in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. The phosphorylated-HSP27 levels induced by TRAP were directly proportional to the aggregation of platelets. The levels of phosphorylated-HSP27 (Ser-78) were correlated with the levels of phosphorylated-p38 MAP kinase and phosphorylated-Akt in the platelets stimulated by 10 µM TRAP but not with those of phosphorylated-p44/p42 MAP kinase. The levels of HSP27 released from the TRAP (10 µM)-stimulated platelets were correlated with the levels of phosphorylated-HSP27 in the platelets. The released platelet-derived growth factor-AB (PDGF-AB) levels were in parallel with the HSP27 levels released from the platelets stimulated by 10 µM TRAP. Although the area under the curve (AUC) of small aggregates (9–25 µm) induced by 10 µM TRAP showed no significant correlation with the released HSP27 levels, AUC of medium aggregates (25–50 µm), large aggregates (50–70 µm) and light transmittance were significantly correlated with the released HSP27 levels. TRAP-induced phosphorylation of HSP27 was truly suppressed by deguelin, an inhibitor of Akt, in the platelets from a healthy subject. These results strongly suggest that TRAP-induced activation of Akt in addition to p38 MAP kinase positively regulates the release of phosphorylated-HSP27 from human platelets, which is closely related to the platelet hyper-aggregation in type 2 DM patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study attempted to fill the gaps in evidence related to response to clopidogrel treatment in the Turkish population. The study aimed to determine the prevalence, associated risk factors, and clinical outcomes of high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) of clopidogrel in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in a tertiary cardiovascular hospital in Turkey. METHODS In this prospective studied a total of 1.238 patients undergoing PCI were included in the present study. Blood samples were analyzed using a Multiplate analyzer. All patients were examined in the outpatient clinics at the end of the first and sixth months for recording drug therapy compliance and study endpoints. RESULTS Among the study population, 324 (30.2%) patients were found to have HTPR (mean age 58.03±11.88 years, 71.7% men). The incidence of HTPR was higher amongst females than amongst males (38.3% vs. 27%, p=0.010). Hypertension and diabetes mellitus were more frequently observed in the HTPR group (57.7% vs. 48.7%, p=0.004; 35% vs. 29.1%, p=0.040, respectively). When the recorded data were analyzed using multinomial regression analysis, hypertension, hemoglobin level, platelet, lymphocyte, and eosinophil count were independently associated with HTPR. CONCLUSION On the basis of the results obtained from our study, we conclude that 30.2% of the Turkish population has HTPR. Our results also led us to believe that hypertension is an associated risk factor and decreased hemoglobin level as well as increased platelet counts are laboratory parameters that are strongly associated with the presence of HTPR. However, no differences were observed with regard to cardiovascular mortality and stent thrombosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Edaravone, a novel free-radical scavenger, has been shown to alleviate cerebral ischemic injury and protect against vascular endothelial dysfunction. However, the effects of edaravone in acute diabetic stroke patients remain undetermined. METHODS A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was performed to prospectively evaluate the effects of edaravone on acute diabetic stroke patients admitted to our hospital within 24 h of stroke onset. The edaravone group received edaravone (30 mg twice per day) diluted with 100 ml of saline combined with antiplatelet drug aspirin and atorvastatin for 14 days. The non-edaravone group was treated only with 100 ml of saline twice per day combined with aspirin and atorvastatin. Upon admission, and on days 7, 14 post-stroke onset, neurological deficits and activities of daily living were assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the Barthel Index (BI), respectively. The occurrence of hemorrhage transformation, pulmonary infection, progressive stroke and epilepsy was also evaluated on day 14 post-treatment. RESULTS A total of 65 consecutive acute diabetic stroke patients were enrolled, of whom 35 were allocated to the edaravone group and 30 to the non-edaravone group. There was no significant group difference in baseline clinical characteristics, but mean NIHSS scores were lower (60 %), and BI scores were 1.7-fold higher, in edaravone-treated patients vs. controls on day 14. Furthermore, the incidence of hemorrhage transformation, pulmonary infection, progressive stroke and epilepsy was markedly reduced in the edaravone vs. non-edaravone group. CONCLUSION Edaravone represents a promising neuroprotectant against cerebral ischemic injury in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Stent thrombosis is a morbid complication following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Dual antiplatelet therapy significantly reduces stent thrombosis risk. However, the antiplatelet response to clopidogrel - the most frequently used ADP receptor antagonist in post-PCI patients - varies among individuals. High on-treatment platelet reactivity was repeatedly associated with the risk of stent thrombosis. Ticagrelor is a novel ADP receptor blocker that has shown greater, more rapid and more consistent platelet inhibition than clopidogrel. This agent offers a unique mechanism of action, no relevant pharmacological interactions, consistent platelet inhibition, and a good safety profile. This article reviews the prospective use of ticagrelor in the treatment of stent thrombosis in acute coronary syndrome patients undergoing PCI of culprit coronary lesion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to compare nonresponders (NR) and responders (R) to clopidogrel with respect to presence of microvascular and macrovascular pathology in a cohort of patients with recent minor ischemic stroke (IS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS Seventy-two patients treated with clopidogrel after IS or TIA were evaluated 1 month after onset. Platelet aggregation was measured by multiple electrode aggregometry (Multiplate). Nonresponse was defined according to recent consensus. The degree of cerebral small-vessel disease (cSVD) was evaluated on computed tomography scans of the brain using Fazekas scale for white matter changes. Carotid atherosclerosis was evaluated by ultrasound or computed tomography/magnetic resonance angiography. RESULTS Twenty-two percent of patients were NR. Moderate to extensive cSVD was more common for NR than R, 56% versus 25%, odds ratio 3.9 (1.2-12), P = .03. Correspondingly, 39% of patients with cSVD were NR versus 14% of patients with no or mild cSVD. No differences were found between NR and R in prevalence or severity of carotid atherosclerosis. NR had higher platelet aggregation response than R after stimulation with arachidonic acid or thrombin receptor-activating peptide, indicating a general platelet hyperreactivity. In a univariate analysis, hypertension, previous IS, glucose intolerance, pulse pressure above median, and presence of moderate to extensive cSVD were associated with the NR phenotype. CONCLUSIONS Nonresponsiveness to clopidogrel after minor IS or TIA is associated with radiological cSVD but not with carotid atherosclerosis. PRACTICE/IMPLICATIONS Measurement of platelet function is warranted in patients with cSVD. Larger studies on alternative or tailored antiplatelet treatment for these patients should be initiated.

Abstract
AIM: To identify the rate of non-responders to clopidogrel treatment in hip fracture patients and study how non-responders differ from controls.
METHODS: In a retrospective case-control study we included 28 cases of acute proximal femoral fracture with clopidogrel treatment 2011 to 2013. Eighty-four controls from the same time period were included. Data collected included response to clopidogrel measured with multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA), intraoperative bleeding, erythrocyte transfusion, time to surgery and the incidence of adverse events up to 3 mo after surgery.
RESULTS: Eight (29%) of the 28 cases were non-responders. The median intraoperative bleeding was 300 mL (range, 0-1500), and was lower for non-responders (50 mL) but did not reach statistical significance. Erythrocyte transfusions did not differ between responders, non-responders and controls. Forty-five (40%) of 112 patients had adverse events postoperatively but the rate did not differ between patients with and without clopidogrel treatment.
CONCLUSION: Almost one-third of patients with clopidogrel treatment and an acute proximal femoral fracture are non-responders to antiplatelet therapy and can be operated without delay.

Antiplatelet resistance and the role of associated variables in stable patients treated with stenting. ADVANCES IN INTERVENTIONAL CARDIOLOGY 2015; 11:19-25.

Abstract
Introduction Nowadays, clopidogrel and acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) have become routinely applied therapies in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) with stenting. Aim Numerous variables can interfere with antiplatelet responsiveness, so we aimed to investigate the role of different variables associated with ASA or clopidogrel resistance in stable coronary artery disease. Material and methods A total of 207 patients undergoing elective PCI were included in the analysis. All patients received a loading dose of clopidogrel and ASA during PCI procedure and followed by dual antiplatelet therapy. Clopidogrel and ASA resistance were measured by impedance aggregometry method. Results Of the patients, 19.8% had clopidogrel resistance, 18.8% had ASA resistance, 9.2% had both clopidogrel and ASA resistance, and 71.5% were responsive to both drugs. In multivariate analysis, platelet count, angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) use, and ASA resistance were independent variables associated with clopidogrel resistance, and clopidogrel resistance was the only variable associated with ASA resistance. In differentiating whether clopidogrel resistance exists or not, optimum ASA aggregometry response cut-off values were specified, and in differentiating whether ASA resistance exists or not, optimum clopidogrel aggregometry response cut-off values were specified. Conclusions In this study, there was a higher incidence of low responsiveness to ASA when there was a low response to clopidogrel, and vice versa. Angiotensin receptor blocker use, platelet count, and ASA resistance were independent variables associated with clopidogrel resistance. Clopidogrel resistance was the only independent variable associated with ASA resistance. Angiotensin receptor blocker use seems to an independent risk factor for clopidogrel resistance in this study, but this result needs to be verified in other studies.

Abstract
Although patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) are at increased atherothrombotic risk, it is unclear how antiplatelet drugs act in patients with IGT. The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacodynamic response to clopidogrel in patients with IGT and insulin resistance (IR). A 75 g oral glucose tolerance test was performed in 65 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients on aspirin and clopidogrel therapy. Platelet function tests were assessed at 3 time-points by light transmittance aggregometry using ADP (5 and 20 μmol/L) stimuli. 30 patients had IGT and 35 normal glucose tolerance (NGT). Among them, 13 patients showed IR. Following ADP stimuli, patients with IGT showed significantly higher maximal platelet aggregation at each time point than those with NGT patients. This resulted in greater high on-treatment platelet reactivity (HPR) rates at each time point in IGT patients (53.3-36.7 vs. 14.3-11.4 %, p < 0.05). A multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that IGT status was the strongest predictor of HPR (odds ratio 7.54, 95 % CI 1.95-29.1, p = 0.003). Following a glucose load, profiles of platelet reactivity varied according to IR status, with minimal changes over time in patients with IR, while there was a significant reduction in the non-IR patients. In aspirin and clopidogrel-treated patients with CAD, IGT is associated with enhanced platelet reactivity and increased rates of HPR compared with NGT patients. These findings suggest the presence of platelet dysfunction in patients with IGT, which may be attributed to the presence of IR.
