Abstract
BACKGROUND Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most serious cardiovascular diseases, characterized by a rapid and irreversible decline in myocardial function. Early detection of patients with MI and prolonging the optimal therapeutic window of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are particularly important. This study aimed to identify the diagnostic biomarkers and novel therapeutic targets for acute myocardial infarction. METHOD We generated the AMI mouse models by ligating the proximal left anterior descending coronary artery. Six time points-Sham, AMI 10-min, 1-h, 6-h, 24-h, and 72-h-were chosen to examine the molecular changes that occur during the AMI process. RNA-seq and DIA-MS were performed on the infarcted left ventricular tissues of AMI mice at each time point. Co-expression pattern genes were screened from myocardial infarction samples at different time points by time-series analysis. Gene Ontology (GO) function and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were used to examine these genes. Using the Interactive Gene/Protein Retrieval Tool (STRING) database, the protein-protein interaction network (PPI) was constructed and the hub genes were identified. In order to evaluate the diagnostic value of hub genes, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed. An independent data set, GSE163772, confirmed the diagnostic value of hub genes further. RESULT We obtained the expression profiles at different time points after the occurrence of heart failure through high-throughput sequencing, and found 167 genes with similar expression patterns through time series analysis. The immune response and immune-related pathways had the greatest enrichment of these genes. Among them, Itgb2 Syk, Tlr4, Tlr2, Itgax, and Lcp2 may play key roles as hub genes. Combined with the results of proteomic analysis, it was found that the expression of Coro1a in both omics increased with time. The results of external validation showed that TLR2, ITGAX, and LCP2 had good predictive ability for AMI diagnosis. CONCLUSION Itgb2, Syk, Tlr4, Tlr2, Itgax, Lcp2 and Coro1a are considered to be the seven key genes significantly associated with AMI. Our results may provide potential targets for the prevention of adverse ventricular remodeling and the treatment of AMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND High mortality in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) without standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors [SMuRFs (e.g. diabetes, hypertension, smoking, and dyslipidemia)] has been reported. However, details regarding their acute presentation and reasons for the excess risk remain unclear. METHOD Patient-level data were extracted from a multicenter procedure-based registry (KiCS-PCI). We analyzed consecutive patients with ACS who underwent de novo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between 2009 and 2020. The primary outcome of interest was the in-hospital mortality. RESULTS Among the 10,523 patients with ACS, 7775 met the inclusion criteria. Patients without SMuRFs who underwent PCI [n = 529 (6.8 %)] were older [median 71 (IQR: 63-79) vs. 68 (59-76) years, p < 0.001] and more often presented with cardiogenic shock or cardiopulmonary arrest (14.6 % vs. 8.6 %, p < 0.001; 12.7 % vs. 5.3 %, p < 0.001, respectively). In patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), median door-to-balloon time was significantly longer in SMuRF-less patients (90 min vs 82 min). In-hospital death was significantly higher in SMuRF-less patients [10.2 % vs. 4.1 %, p < 0.001, adjusted odds ratio, 1.81 (95%CI, 1.26-2.59); p = 0.001], whereas the rate of procedural complications showed no significant difference. When stratified by the ACS presentation pattern, the findings were consistent, although the association between SMuRF-less and the increased risk of in-hospital mortality was not statistically significant in patients with non-ST-elevation- (NSTE)-ACS. CONCLUSIONS SMuRF-less ACS patients frequently presented with cardiopulmonary arrest and/or cardiogenic shock, leading to high in-hospital mortality. When stratified by the ACS presentation pattern, the association of SMuRF-less and the increased risk of mortality was more prominent in STEMI patients and it was not statistically significant in NSTE-ACS patients. Almost half of these patients had amendable left main trunk or left anterior descending artery disease and treating clinicians should be aware of this paradox to avoid the delay in treatment.

Abstract
Objective There is an increasing recognition of the burden of cardiovascular disease in Africa. However, little is known about the pooled prevalence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS)-associated in-hospital mortality and contributing factors. Methods PubMed, Medline, Embase, Web of Science (Core Collection), and supplementary sources including Google Scholar, World Cat, Research Gate, and Cochrane Library were searched. Chi-square test and I 2-statistic were used to assess heterogeneity. Egger's and Begg's tests and funnel plots were used to assess publication bias. Data were analyzed using Stata software (version 15.0). Result Twenty nine studies with a total sample of 11,788 were included. The pooled estimate of all-cause in-hospital mortality was 22% (pooled proportion (PP) = 0.22; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.17-0.27. The In-hospital mortality rate was lower at the cardiac centers (PP = 0.14; CI: 0.05-0.23) compared to referral hospitals (PP = 0.24; CI: 0.17-0.31]) The mortality rate was comparable in Eastern (PP = 0.23; CI: 0.19-0.27) and Northern Africa (PP = 0.22; CI: 0.16-0.28). The incidence of in-hospital heart failure, cardiogenic shock, arrhythmia, bleeding, acute stroke, and reinfarction were 42, 17.0, 20.0, 16.0, 4.0, and 5.0%, respectively. Conclusion All-cause in-hospital mortality rate associated with ACS is high in Africa. The mortality rate at cardiac centers was 10% lower when compared with referral hospitals. Establishing coronary units, strengthening existing cardiac services, and improving availability and access to cardiovascular medicines could help in reducing the burden of ACS in the continent.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the leading cause of mortality worldwide, is a rapidly developing and irreversible disease. Therefore, proper prompt intervention at the early stage of AMI is crucial for its treatment. However, the molecular features in the early stage have not been clarified. Here, we constructed mouse AMI model and profiled transcriptomes and proteomes at the early stages of AMI progress. Immune system was extensively activated at 6-h AMI. Then, pyroptosis was activated at 24-h AMI. VX-765 treatment, a pyroptosis inhibitor, significantly reduced the infarct size and improved the function of cardiomyocytes. Besides, we identified that WIPI1, specifically expressed in heart, was significantly upregulated at 1 h after AMI. Moreover, WIPI1 expression is significantly higher in the peripheral blood of patients with AMI than healthy control. WIPI1 can serve as a potential early diagnostic biomarker for AMI. It likely decelerates AMI progress by activating autophagy pathways. These findings shed new light on gene expression dynamics in AMI progress, and present a potential early diagnostic marker and a candidate drug for clinical pre-treatment to prolong the optimal cure time.

Abstract
The ceRNA network involving circular RNAs (circRNAs) is essential in the cardiovascular system. We investigated the underlying ceRNA network involving circHIPK3 in myocardial infarction (MI). After an MI model was established, cardiac function was verified, and myocardial tissue damage in mice with MI was evaluated. A hypoxia model of cardiomyocytes was used to simulate MI in vivo, and the expression of and targeting relationships among circHIPK3, miR-93-5p, and Rac1 were verified. The apoptosis of cardiomyocyte was identified. Gain- and loss-of-functions were performed to verify the ceRNA mechanism. The MI-modeled mice showed cardiac dysfunction and enlarged infarct size. CircHIPK3 was highly expressed in mouse and cell models of MI. Silencing circHIPK3 reduced infarct size, myocardial collagen deposition, and myocardial apoptosis rate and improved cardiac function. CircHIPK3 sponged miR-93-5p, and miR-93-5p targeted Rac1. Overexpression of miR-93-5p inhibited MI-induced cardiomyocyte injury and eliminated the harmful effect of circHIPK3. CircHIPK3 acted as ceRNA to absorb miR-93-5p, thus promoting the activation of the Rac1/PI3K/AKT pathway. We highlighted that silencing circHIPK3 can upregulate miR-93-5p and then inhibit the activation of Rac1/PI3K/Akt pathway, which can improve MI-induced cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A severe mismatch between the supply and demand of oxygen is the common feature of all types of shock. We present a newly developed, clinically oriented classification of the various types of shock and their therapeutic implications. METHODS This review is based on pertinent publications (1990-2018) retrieved by a selective search in PubMed, and on the relevant guidelines and meta-analyses. RESULTS There are only four major categories of shock, each of which is mainly related to one of four organ systems. Hypovolemic shock relates to the blood and fluids compartment while distributive shock relates to the vascular system; cardiogenic shock arises from primary cardiac dysfunction; and obstructive shock arises from a blockage of the circulation. Hypovolemic shock is due to intravascular volume loss and is treated by fluid replacement with balanced crystalloids. Distributive shock, on the other hand, is a state of relative hypovolemia resulting from pathological redistribution of the absolute intravascular volume and is treated with a combination of vasoconstrictors and fluid replacement. Cardiogenic shock is due to inadequate function of the heart, which shall be treated, depending on the situation, with drugs, surgery, or other interventional procedures. In obstructive shock, hypoperfusion due to elevated resistance shall be treated with an immediate life-saving intervention. CONCLUSION The new classification is intended to facilitate the goal-driven treatment of shock in both the pre-hospital and the inpatient setting. A uniform treatment strategy should be established for each of the four types of shock.
