Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with previous coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) who require repeat revascularization frequently undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We sought to identify factors associated with the decision to intervene on the native vessel versus a bypass graft and investigate their outcomes in a large nationwide prospective registry. METHODS We identified patients who underwent PCI with a history of prior CABG from the Netherlands Heart Registration between 2017 and 2021 and stratified them by isolated native vessel PCI versus PCI including at least one venous- or arterial graft. The primary endpoint of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) was a composite of all-cause death and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at one-year post PCI. The key secondary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and TVR at 30 days. RESULTS Out of 154,146 patients who underwent PCI, 12,822 (8.3%) had a prior CABG. Isolated native vessel PCI was most frequently performed (75.2%), while an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) presentation was most strongly associated with graft interventions. The primary outcome of MACE at one-year post PCI occurred more frequently in interventions including grafts compared with native vessels alone (19.7% vs. 14.3%; adjOR 1.267; 95% CI 1.101-1.457); p < 0.001) driven by TVR. There was however no difference in mortality or the key secondary endpoint between the two groups. CONCLUSION In this nationwide prospective registry, ACS presentation was strongly associated with bypass graft PCI. At one year after PCI, interventions including bypass grafts had a higher composite of MACE compared with isolated native vessel interventions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emergency coronary artery bypass surgery (eCABG) is a serious complication of chronic total occlusion (CTO) percutaneous coronary artery intervention (PCI). METHODS We examined the incidence and outcomes eCABG among 14,512 CTO PCIs performed between 2012 and 2023 in a large multicenter registry. RESULTS The incidence of eCABG was 0.12% (n = 17). Mean age was 68 ± 6 years and 69% of the patients were men. The most common reason for eCABG was coronary perforation (70.6%). eCABG patients had larger target vessel diameter (3.36 ± 0.50 vs. 2.90 ± 0.52; p = 0.003), were more likely to have moderate/severe calcification (85.7% vs. 45.8%; p = 0.006), side branch at the proximal cap (91.7% vs. 55.4%; p = 0.025), and balloon undilatable lesions (50% vs. 7.4%; p = 0.001) and to have undergone retrograde crossing (64.7% vs. 30.8%, p = 0.006). eCABG cases had lower technical (35.3% vs. 86.7%; p < 0.001) and procedural (35.3% vs. 86.7%; p < 0.001) success and higher in-hospital mortality (35.3% vs. 0.4%; p < 0.001), coronary perforation (70.6% vs. 4.6%; p < 0.001), pericardiocentesis (47.1% vs. 0.8%; p < 0.001), and major bleeding (11.8% vs. 0.5%; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of eCABG after CTO PCI was 0.12% and associated with high in-hospital mortality (35%). Coronary perforation was the most common reason for eCABG.

Impact of Society Guidelines on Trends in Use of Newer P2Y 12 Inhibitors for Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention. J Am Heart Assoc 2024; 13:e034414. [PMID: 38700032 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.124.034414] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [What about the content of this article?

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the past decade, major society guidelines have recommended the use of newer P2Y12 inhibitors over clopidogrel for those undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for acute coronary syndrome. It is unclear what impact these recommendations had on clinical practice. METHODS AND RESULTS All percutaneous coronary intervention procedures (n=534 210) for acute coronary syndrome in England and Wales (April 1, 2010, to March 31, 2022) were retrospectively analyzed, stratified by choice of preprocedural P2Y12 inhibitor (clopidogrel, ticagrelor, and prasugrel). Multivariable logistic regression models were used to examine odds ratios of receipt of ticagrelor and prasugrel (versus clopidogrel) over time, and predictors of their receipt. Overall, there was a significant increase in receipt of newer P2Y12 inhibitors from 2010 to 2020 (2022 versus 2010: ticagrelor odds ratio, 8.12 [95% CI, 7.67-8.60]; prasugrel odds ratio, 6.14 [95% CI, 5.53-6.81]), more so in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction than non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome indication. The most significant increase in odds of receipt of prasugrel was observed between 2020 and 2022 (P<0.001), following a decline/plateau in its use in earlier years (2011-2019). In contrast, the odds of receipt of ticagrelor significantly increased in earlier years (2012-2017, Ptrend<0.001), after which the trend was stable (Ptrend=0.093). CONCLUSIONS Over a 13-year-period, there has been a significant increase in use of newer P2Y12 inhibitors, although uptake of prasugrel use remained significantly lower than ticagrelor. Earlier society guidelines (pre-2017) were associated with the highest rates of ticagrelor use for non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome and ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction cases while the ISAR-REACT 5 (Prospective, Randomized Trial of Ticagrelor Versus Prasugrel in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome) trial and later society guidelines were associated with higher prasugrel use, mainly for ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction indication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The initial data of the International Study on Acute Coronary Syndromes - ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction COVID-19 showed in Europe a remarkable reduction in primary percutaneous coronary intervention procedures and higher in-hospital mortality during the initial phase of the pandemic as compared with the prepandemic period. The aim of the current study was to provide the final results of the registry, subsequently extended outside Europe with a larger inclusion period (up to June 2020) and longer follow-up (up to 30 days). METHODS This is a retrospective multicentre registry in 109 high-volume primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) centres from Europe, Latin America, South-East Asia and North Africa, enrolling 16 674 patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing PPPCI in March/June 2019 and 2020. The main study outcomes were the incidence of PPCI, delayed treatment (ischaemia time >12 hours and door-to-balloon >30 min), in-hospital and 30-day mortality. RESULTS In 2020, during the pandemic, there was a significant reduction in PPCI as compared with 2019 (incidence rate ratio 0.843, 95% CI 0.825 to 0.861, p<0.0001). This reduction was significantly associated with age, being higher in older adults (>75 years) (p=0.015), and was not related to the peak of cases or deaths due to COVID-19. The heterogeneity among centres was high (p<0.001). Furthermore, the pandemic was associated with a significant increase in door-to-balloon time (40 (25-70) min vs 40 (25-64) min, p=0.01) and total ischaemia time (225 (135-410) min vs 196 (120-355) min, p<0.001), which may have contributed to the higher in-hospital (6.5% vs 5.3%, p<0.001) and 30-day (8% vs 6.5%, p=0.001) mortality observed during the pandemic. CONCLUSION Percutaneous revascularisation for STEMI was significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with a 16% reduction in PPCI procedures, especially among older patients (about 20%), and longer delays to treatment, which may have contributed to the increased in-hospital and 30-day mortality during the pandemic.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Limited data exist regarding the characteristics of hospitals that do and do not participate in voluntary public reporting programs. OBJECTIVE To describe hospital characteristics and trends associated with early participation in the American College of Cardiology (ACC) voluntary reporting program for cardiac catheterization-percutaneous coronary intervention (CathPCI) and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) registries. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This cross-sectional study analyzed enrollment trends and characteristics of hospitals that did and did not participate in the ACC voluntary public reporting program. All hospitals reporting procedure data to the National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) CathPCI or ICD registries that were eligible for the public reporting program from July 2014 (ie, program launch date) to May 2017 were included. Stepwise logistic regression was used to identify hospital characteristics associated with voluntary participation. Enrollment trends were evaluated considering the date US News & World Report (USNWR) announced that it would credit participating hospitals. Data analysis was performed from March 2017 to January 2018. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Hospital characteristics and participation in the public reporting program. RESULTS By May 2017, 561 of 1747 eligible hospitals (32.1%) had opted to participate in the program. Enrollment increased from 240 to 376 hospitals (56.7%) 1 month after the USNWR announcement that program participation would be considered as a component of national hospital rankings. Compared with hospitals that did not enroll, program participants had increased median (IQR) procedural volumes for PCI (481 [280-764] procedures vs 332 [186-569] procedures; P < .001) and ICD (114 [56-220] procedures vs 62 [25-124] procedures; P < .001). Compared with nonparticipating hospitals, an increased mean (SD) proportion of participating hospitals adhered to composite discharge medications after PCI (0.96 [0.03] vs 0.92 [0.07]; P < .001) and ICD (0.88 [0.10] vs 0.81 [0.12]; P < .001). Hospital factors associated with enrollment included participation in 5 or more NCDR registries (odds ratio [OR],1.98; 95% CI, 1.24-3.19; P = .005), membership in a larger hospital system (ie, 3-20 hospitals vs ≤2 hospitals in the system: OR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.65-3.17; P = .001), participation in an NCDR pilot public reporting program of PCI 30-day readmissions (OR, 2.93; 95% CI, 2.19-3.91; P < .001), university affiliation (vs government affiliation: OR, 3.85, 95% CI, 1.03-14.29; P = .045; vs private affiliation: OR, 2.22; 95% CI, 1.35-3.57; P < .001), Midwest location (vs South: OR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.06-2.08; P = .02), and increased comprehensive quality ranking (4 vs 1-2 performance stars in CathPCI: OR, 8.08; 95% CI, 5.07-12.87; P < .001; 4 vs 1 performance star in ICD: OR, 2.26; 95% CI, 1.48-3.44; P < .001) (C statistic = 0.829). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This study found that one-third of eligible hospitals participated in the ACC voluntary public reporting program and that enrollment increased after the announcement that program participation would be considered by USNWR for hospital rankings. Several hospital characteristics, experience with public reporting, and quality of care were associated with increased odds of participation.

Abstract
The contemporary scope of practice of interventional cardiologists (ICs) in the United States and recent trends are unknown. Using Medicare claims from 2013 to 2017, we categorized ICs into 4 practice categories (only percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], PCI with noninvasive imaging, PCI with specialized interventions [peripheral/structural], and all 3 services) and evaluated associations with region, hospital bed size and teaching status, gender, and graduation year. Of 6,083 ICs in 2017, 10.9% performed only PCI, 68.3% PCI with noninvasive imaging, 5.7% PCI with specialized interventions, and 15.1% all 3 services. A higher proportion of Northeast ICs (vs South ICs) were performing only PCI (24.8% vs 7.3%) and PCI with specialized interventions (12% vs 3.4%), but lower PCI and noninvasive imaging (53.8% vs 71.7%) and all 3 services (9.3% and 17.6%). Regarding ICs at larger hospitals (bed size >575 vs <218), a higher proportion was performing only PCI (23.8% vs 5.2%) or PCI with specialized interventions (13.5% vs 1.7%) and lower proportion was performing PCI with noninvasive imaging (48.8% vs 78%), similar to teaching hospitals. Female ICs (vs male ICs) more frequently performed only PCI (18.9% vs 10.6%) and less frequently all 3 services (8.3% vs 15.4%). A lower proportion of recent graduates (2001 to 2016) performed only PCI (9.8% vs 13.8%) and PCI with noninvasive imaging (66.3% vs 72.6%) but a higher proportion performed all 3 services (18% vs 8.4%) than earlier graduates (1959 to 1984). From 2013 to 2017, only PCI and PCI with noninvasive imaging decreased, whereas PCI and specialized interventions and all 3 services increased (all p <0.001). In conclusion, there is marked heterogeneity in practice responsibilities among ICs, which has implications for training and competency assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angina might persist or reoccur despite successful revascularisation with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and antianginal therapy. Additionally, PCI in stable patients has not been shown to improve survival compared with optimal medical therapy. Trimetazidine is an antianginal agent that improves energy metabolism of the ischaemic myocardium and might improve outcomes and symptoms of patients who recently had a PCI. In this study, we aimed to assess the long-term potential benefits and safety of trimetazidine added to standard evidence-based medical treatment in patients who had a recent successful PCI. METHODS We did a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, event-driven trial of trimetazidine added to standard background therapy in patients who had undergone successful PCI at 365 centres in 27 countries across Europe, South America, Asia, and north Africa. Eligible patients were aged 21-85 years and had had either elective PCI for stable angina or urgent PCI for unstable angina or non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction less than 30 days before randomisation. Patients were randomly assigned by an interactive web response system to oral trimetazidine 35 mg modified-release twice daily or matching placebo. Participants, study investigators, and all study staff were masked to treatment allocation. The primary efficacy endpoint was a composite of cardiac death; hospital admission for a cardiac event; recurrence or persistence of angina requiring an addition, switch, or increase of the dose of at least one antianginal drug; or recurrence or persistence of angina requiring a coronary angiography. Efficacy analyses were done according to the intention-to-treat principle. Safety was assessed in all patients who had at least one dose of study drug. This study is registered with the EU Clinical Trials Register (EudraCT 2010-022134-89). FINDINGS From Sept 17, 2014, to June 15, 2016, 6007 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive either trimetazidine (n=2998) or placebo (n=3009). After a median follow-up of 47·5 months (IQR 42·3-53·3), incidence of primary endpoint events was not significantly different between the trimetazidine group (700 [23·3%] patients) and the placebo group (714 [23·7%]; hazard ratio 0·98 [95% CI 0·88-1·09], p=0·73). When analysed individually, there were no significant differences in the incidence of the components of the primary endpoint between the treatment groups. Similar results were obtained when patients were categorised according to whether they had an elective or urgent PCI. 1219 (40·9%) of 2983 patients in the trimetazidine group and 1230 (41·1%) of 2990 patients in the placebo group had serious treatment-emergent adverse events. Frequencies of adverse events of interest were similar between the groups. INTERPRETATION Our results show that the routine use of oral trimetazidine 35 mg twice daily over several years in patients receiving optimal medical therapy, after successful PCI, does not influence the recurrence of angina or the outcome; these findings should be taken into account when considering the place of trimetazidine in clinical practice. However, the long-term prescription of this treatment does not appear to be associated with any statistically significant safety concerns in the population studied. FUNDING Servier.

Abstract
The worldwide pandemic caused by the novel acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has resulted in a new and lethal disease termed coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Although there is an association between cardiovascular disease and COVID-19, the majority of patients who need cardiovascular care for the management of ischemic heart disease may not be infected with this novel coronavirus. The objective of this document is to provide recommendations for a systematic approach for the care of patients with an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during the COVID-19 pandemic. There is a recognition of two major challenges in providing recommendations for AMI care in the COVID-19 era. Cardiovascular manifestations of COVID-19 are complex with patients presenting with AMI, myocarditis simulating an ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) presentation, stress cardiomyopathy, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, coronary spasm, or nonspecific myocardial injury, and the prevalence of COVID-19 disease in the U.S. population remains unknown with risk of asymptomatic spread. This document addresses the care of these patients focusing on 1) the varied clinical presentations; 2) appropriate personal protection equipment (PPE) for health care workers; 3) role of the Emergency Department, Emergency Medical System and the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory; and 4) Regional STEMI systems of care. During the COVID-19 pandemic, primary PCI remains the standard of care for STEMI patients at PCI capable hospitals when it can be provided in a timely fashion, with an expert team outfitted with PPE in a dedicated CCL room. A fibrinolysis-based strategy may be entertained at non-PCI capable referral hospitals or in specific situations where primary PCI cannot be executed or is not deemed the best option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the COMPLETE (Complete vs Culprit-only Revascularization to Treat Multi-vessel Disease After Early PCI for STEMI) trial, angiography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of nonculprit lesions with the aim of complete revascularization reduced major cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI) and multivessel coronary artery disease. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of nonculprit-lesion stenosis severity measured by quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) on the benefit of complete revascularization. METHODS Among 4,041 patients randomized in the COMPLETE trial, nonculprit lesion stenosis severity was measured using QCA in the angiographic core laboratory in 3,851 patients with 5,355 nonculprit lesions. In pre-specified analyses, the treatment effect in patients with QCA stenosis ≥60% versus <60% on the first coprimary outcome of CV death or new MI and the second co-primary outcome of CV death, new MI, or ischemia-driven revascularization was determined. RESULTS The first coprimary outcome was reduced with complete revascularization in the 2,479 patients with QCA stenosis ≥60% (2.5%/year vs. 4.2%/year; hazard ratio [HR]: 0.61; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.47 to 0.79), but not in the 1,372 patients with QCA stenosis <60% (3.0%/year vs. 2.9%/year; HR: 1.04; 95% CI: 0.72 to 1.50; interaction p = 0.02). The second coprimary outcome was reduced in patients with QCA stenosis ≥60% (2.9%/year vs. 6.9%/year; HR: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.34 to 0.54) to a greater extent than patients with QCA stenosis <60% (3.3%/year vs. 5.2%/year; HR: 0.65; 95% CI: 0.47 to 0.89; interaction p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with ST-segment elevation MI and multivessel coronary artery disease, complete revascularization reduced major CV outcomes to a greater extent in patients with stenosis severity of ≥60% compared with <60%, as determined by quantitative coronary angiography.

Abstract
Background There is a limited evidence base to support the volume-outcome relationship in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for unprotected left main coronary artery disease (UPLMD). This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between institutional and operator volume and in-hospital outcomes in patients undergoing PCI for unprotected left main coronary artery disease. Methods and Results We analyzed characteristics and clinical outcomes of 24 320 patients undergoing PCI for unprotected left main coronary artery disease at 1102 hospitals by 7244 operators using data from the Japanese nationwide J-PCI Registry (National PCI Data Registry) between January 2014 and December 2017. We classified institutions and operators into quartiles based on the mean annual volume of PCI. A generalized linear mixed-effects model was used to evaluate the association between institutional and operator PCI volume and in-hospital outcomes. Among the 24 320 patients, 4027 (16.6%), 6147 (25.3%), and 14 146 (58.2%) presented with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST-segment-elevation acute coronary syndrome, and stable ischemic heart disease; their crude in-hospital mortality was 15%, 3.1%, and 0.3%, respectively. Compared with patients in the lowest quartile of institutional volume (1-216 PCIs/y), the adjusted odds ratio of in-hospital death in patients in the second (217-323 PCIs/y), third (324-487 PCIs/y), and fourth (488-3015 PCIs/y) quartile of institutional volume was 0.75 (95% CI, 0.51-1.10; P=0.14), 0.87 (95% CI, 0.57-1.34; P=0.54), and 0.51 (95% CI, 0.30-0.86; P=0.01), respectively. These findings were consistent in rates of in-hospital death or any complication. Conversely, operator PCI volume was not significantly associated with in-hospital outcomes. Conclusions Institutional rather than operator-based PCI volume was associated with better in-hospital outcomes in patients undergoing PCI for unprotected left main coronary artery disease.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Data on the contemporary changes in risk profile and outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary bypass grafting (CABG) are limited. OBJECTIVE To assess the contemporary trends in the characteristics and outcomes of patients undergoing PCI or CABG in the United States. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This retrospective cohort study used a national inpatient claims-based database to identify patients undergoing PCI or CABG from January 1, 2003, to December 31, 2016. Data analysis was performed from July 15 to October 4, 2019. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Demographic characteristics, prevalence of risk factors, and clinical presentation divided into 3 eras (2003-2007, 2008-2012, and 2013-2016) and in-hospital mortality of PCI and CABG stratified by clinical indication. RESULTS A total of 12 062 081 revascularization hospitalizations were identified: 8 687 338 PCIs (72.0%; mean [SD] patient age, 66.0 [10.8] years; 66.2% male) and 3 374 743 CABGs (28.0%; mean [SD] patient age, 64.5 [12.4] years; 72.1% male). The annual PCI volume decreased from 366 to 180 per 100 000 US adults and the annual CABG volume from 159 to 82 per 100 000 US adults. A temporal increase in the proportions of older, male, nonwhite, and lower-income patients and in the prevalence of atherosclerotic and nonatherosclerotic risk factors was found in both groups. The percentage of revascularization for myocardial infarction (MI) increased in the PCI group (22.8% to 53.1%) and in the CABG group (19.5% to 28.2%). Risk-adjusted mortality increased slightly after PCI for ST-segment elevation MI (4.9% to 5.3%; P < .001 for trend) and unstable angina or stable ischemic heart disease (0.8% to 1.0%; P < .001 for trend) but remained stable after PCI for non-ST-segment elevation MI (1.6% to 1.6%; P = .18 for trend). Risk-adjusted CABG morality markedly decreased in patients with MI (5.6% to 3.4% for all CABG and 4.8% to 3.0% for isolated CABG) and in those without MI (2.8% to 1.7% for all CABG and 2.1% to 1.2% for isolated CABG) (P < .001 for all). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Significant changes were found in the characteristics of patients undergoing PCI and CABG in the United States between 2003 and 2016. Risk-adjusted mortality decreased significantly after CABG but not after PCI across all clinical indications.

Abstract
AIMS Length of hospital stay (LOS) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has important clinical and cost implications. We report recent trends and predictors of ACS hospitalisation LOS in New Zealand. METHODS Using routine national hospitalisation datasets, we calculated mean LOS for ACS admissions annually from 2006 to 2016, by demographics, ACS subtype and ACS procedures (coronary angiography, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)). We also identified predictors of longer LOS. RESULTS Among 185,962 ACS hospitalisations, mean LOS decreased from 7.8 to 6.7 days between 2006 and 2016 (adjusted decrease = -0.18 days/year). Decline in LOS was observed for all demographic subgroups by age, sex, ethnicity and deprivation quintile. While coronary angiography and PCI rates increased during this time, LOS declined for all management strategies. However, the adjusted rate of decline was greater for patients receiving coronary angiography without revascularisation (-0.24 days/year), PCI (-0.22 days/year) and CABG (0.33 days/year)-than those not receiving angiography (-0.14 days/year), P<0.001. A greater decline occurred for NSTEMI and STEMI (9.4 to 7.5 days and 7.8 to 6.2 days, respectively) than UA (5.4 to 4.9 days). Predictors of longer LOS in 2016 were older age, female, Māori or Pacific ethnicity, not receiving coronary angiography, initial presentation to a non-interventional hospital and CABG. CONCLUSIONS Mean LOS for ACS hospitalisations declined between 2006 and 2016. The decline was greatest in the increasing proportion of patients who received a coronary angiogram. Further reductions in LOS may be achieved by implementation of nationally agreed pathways for adequate and timely access to coronary angiography.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). HYPOTHESIS Large administrative data may provide further insight into temporal trends in the prevalence and burden of AF in patients who underwent PCI. METHODS Using the National Inpatient Sample database in the U.S., AF patients ≥18 years who underwent PCI between 2005 and 2014 and were identified by the International Classification of Diseases, ninth revision, Clinical Modification, were examined. In-hospital mortality, morbidity, resource use, and medical costs were evaluated in crude and propensity-matched analyses. RESULTS Among an estimated 6 272 232 hospitalizations, of patients undergoing PCI, AF prevalence was 9.9% and steadily increased from 8.6% to 12.0% between 2005 and 2014 (P < .001); there was also a greater proportion of comorbidities. There was a marked increase in AF prevalence among those aged ≥65 years and those undergoing elective PCIs. AF was independently associated with higher in-hospital mortality and higher rates of transient ischaemic attack/stroke, bleeding complications, and non-home discharge. Excessive in-hospital mortality, stroke rate, gastrointestinal bleeding, blood transfusion, length of stay, and costs among AF hospitalizations were consistently observed throughout the study period. CONCLUSION AF becomes more prevalent in patients undergoing PCI, possibly due to a higher comorbidity, particularly in elderly patients with non-acute indications. Less favorable trends in mortality, bleeding, and stroke among AF patients who underwent PCI were consistent over time. Continuous efforts are needed to improve outcomes and manage strategies for AF patients undergoing PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Randomized clinical trials demonstrated the benefits of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) in diverse clinical settings. Patients with cancer were not routinely included in these studies. METHODS/RESULTS Literature search of PubMed, Cochrane, Medline, SCOPUS, EMBASE, and ClinicalTrials was conducted to identify studies that assessed one-year all-cause, cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular mortality in patients with historical or active cancer. Using the random effects model, we computed risk ratios (RRs) and standardized mean differences and their 95% confidence intervals for the dichotomous and continuous measures and outcomes, respectively. Of 171 articles evaluated in total, 5 eligible studies were included in this meta-analysis. In total, 33,175 patients receiving PCI were analyzed, of whom 3323 patients had cancer and 29,852 no cancer history. Patients in the cancer group had greater all-cause mortality [RR 2.22 (1.51-3.26; p<0.001)], including cardiovascular mortality [RR 1.34 (1.1-1.65; p=0.005)] and non-cardiovascular mortality [RR 3.42 (1.74-6.74; p≤0.001], at one-year compared to non-cancer patients. Patients in the cancer group had greater one-month all-cause mortality [RR 2.01 (1.24-3.27; p=0.005)] and greater non-cardiovascular mortality [RR 6.87 (3.10-15.21; p≤0.001)], but no difference in one-month cardiovascular mortality compared to non-cancer patients. Meta-regression analyses showed that the difference in one-year all-cause and cardiovascular mortality between both groups was not attributable to differences in baseline characteristics, index PCI characteristics, or medications prescribed at discharge. CONCLUSIONS Patients with cancer undergoing PCI have worse mid-term outcomes compared to non-cancer patients. Cancer patients should be managed by a multi-specialist team, in an effort to close the mortality gap.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to describe variability in intensive care unit (ICU) utilization for patients with uncomplicated ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), evaluate the proportion of these patients who developed in-hospital complications requiring ICU care, and assess whether ICU use patterns and complication rates vary across categories of first medical contact to device times. BACKGROUND In the era of rapid primary percutaneous coronary intervention, ICUs may be overutilized as patients presenting with STEMI are less likely to develop complications requiring ICU care. METHODS Using data from the Chest Pain-MI Registry linked to Medicare claims, the authors examined patterns of ICU utilization among hemodynamically stable patients with STEMI ≥65 years of age treated with uncomplicated primary percutaneous coronary intervention, stratified by timing of reperfusion: early (first medical contact-to-device time ≤60 min), intermediate (61 to 90 min), or late (>90 min). RESULTS Of 19,507 patients with STEMI treated at 707 hospitals, 82.3% were treated in ICUs, with a median ICU stay of 1 day (interquartile range [IQR]: 1 to 2 days). The median FMC-to-device time was 79 min (IQR: 63 to 99 min); 22.0% of patients had early, 44.8% intermediate, and 33.2% late reperfusion. ICU utilization rates did not differ between patients with early, intermediate, and late reperfusion times (82%, 83%, and 82%; p for trend = 0.44). Overall, 3,159 patients (16.2%) developed complications requiring ICU care while hospitalized: 3.7% died, 3.7% had cardiac arrest, 8.7% shock, 0.9% stroke, 4.1% high-grade atrioventricular block requiring treatment, and 5.7% respiratory failure. Patients with longer FMC-to-device times were more likely to develop at least 1 of these complications (early 13.4%, intermediate 15.7%, and late 18.7%; p for trend <0.001; adjusted odds ratio [early as reference] for intermediate: 1.13 [95% confidence interval: 1.01 to 1.25]; adjusted odds ratio for late: 1.22 [95% confidence interval: 1.08 to 1.37]). CONCLUSIONS Although >80% of stable patients with STEMI are treated in the ICU after primary percutaneous coronary intervention, the risk for developing a complication requiring ICU care is 16%. Implementing a risk-based triage strategy, inclusive of factors such as degree of reperfusion delay, could optimize ICU utilization for patients with STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Public reporting of cardiovascular outcomes has been associated with risk aversion for potentially lifesaving procedures and may have spillover effects on nonreported but related procedures. METHODS AND RESULTS A cross-sectional analysis of the utilization of coronary angiography among patients presenting with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest between 2005 and 2011 in states with public reporting of percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes (New York and Massachusetts) versus neighboring states without public reporting of percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes (Delaware, Connecticut, Maine, Vermont, Maryland, and Rhode Island) was performed using the Nationwide Inpatient Sample. We analyzed 50 125 admission records with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest between 2005 and 2011. The unadjusted rate of coronary angiography for patients presenting with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in states with public reporting versus without public reporting was not different (20.8% versus 22.8%, P=0.35). We found no statistically significant difference in the adjusted likelihood of coronary angiography in states with public reporting, though the point estimate suggested decreased utilization (odds ratio, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.66-1.06; P=0.14). There was no difference in the adjusted likelihood of in-hospital mortality for patients presenting with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in states with public reporting compared to states without public reporting (odds ratio, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.78-1.23; P=0.88). CONCLUSIONS Public reporting of percutaneous coronary intervention outcomes was associated with a nonstatistically significant reduction in the utilization of diagnostic coronary angiography, a nonreported but related procedure, for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pre-clinical evidence suggests delivery of nitric oxide (NO) through administration of inorganic nitrite suppresses arrhythmias resulting from acute ischaemia and reperfusion (I/R). To date no assessment of whether inorganic nitrite might limit reperfusion arrhythmia has occurred in man, therefore we explored the effects on I/R-induced ventricular arrhythmias in the NITRITE-AMI cohort. METHODS In the NITRITE-AMI cohort, Holter analysis was performed prior to and for 24 h after primary PCI in 80 patients who received either intra-coronary sodium nitrite (N = 40) or placebo (N = 40) during primary PCI for AMI. RESULTS Ventricular rhythm disturbance was experienced by 100% patients; however, there was no difference in the number between the groups, p = .2196. Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) occurred in 67.5% (27/40) of nitrite-treated patients compared to 89% (35/39) of those treated with placebo (p = .027). There was a significant reduction in both the number of runs (63%, p ≤.0001) and total beats of NSVT (64%, p = .0019) in the nitrite-treated patients compared to placebo. Post-hoc analyses demonstrate a direct correlation of occurrence of NSVT with infarct size, with the correlation stronger in the placebo versus the nitrite group initiating an independent nitrite effect (Nitrite: r = 0.110, p = .499, placebo: r = 0.527, p = .001, p for comparison: 0.004). CONCLUSION Overall no difference in ventricular rhythm disturbance was seen with intra-coronary nitrite treatment during primary PCI in STEMI patients, however nitrite treatment was associated with an important reduction in the incidence and severity of NSVT. In view of the sustained reduction of MACE seen, this effect warrants further study in a large-scale trial.

Abstract
Objectives The epidemiological trends of incidence, treatment practices, and outcomes are reported from Shimla district of the northern state of India. Methods The data of clinical characteristics, treatment practices, and outcomes of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) diagnosed using standard criteria were collected systematically from the defined hilly geographical region of the northern state of India from January 2013 to December 2018 as the part of Himachal Pradesh acute coronary syndrome (HP ACS) registry. The year-wise trends of incidence, demographic, clinical characteristics, treatment practices, and in-hospital mortality are reported. Results The incidence of ACS shows declining trends. The mean age at incident ACS is increasing without change in gender predilection. The prevalence of overweight/obesity and diabetes has increased significantly since 2013 but tobacco consumption has not changed. The reperfusion therapy has increased significantly (20.9% in 2013 to 42.1% in 2018, p < 0.01) primarily because of an increased use of percutaneous coronary angioplasty. There is a trend of increasing use of beta blockers. The use of other oral secondary preventive drugs remained more than 90% since 2013. The in-hospital mortality rate is declining (9.0% in 2013 to 6.0% in 2018, p < 0.01). Conclusions Epidemiological characteristics of the ACS population in Shimla district are changing. The trends of use of reperfusion therapy in ST segment elevated myocardial infarction population has although increased but is still suboptimal, and there is a need for taking initiatives both at the system and population level to improve the reperfusion therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Patients with non ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (NSTE-ACS) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD) present a worse prognosis compared to those without PAD. We sought to describe contemporary trends of in-hospital management and outcome of patients admitted for NSTE-ACS with associated PAD. METHODS We analyzed data from 6 Italian nationwide registries, conducted between 2001 and 2014, including consecutive NSTE-ACS patients. RESULTS Out of 15,867 patients with NSTE-ACS enrolled in the 6 registries, 2226 (14.0%) had a history of PAD. As compared to non-PAD patients, those with PAD had significantly more risk factors and comorbidities (all p < 0.0001) that increased over time. Patients with PAD underwent less frequently coronary angiography (72.0% vs 79.2%, p < 0.0001) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI, 42.9% vs 51.8%, p < 0.0001), compared to patients without PAD. Over the years, a progressive and similar increase occurred in the rates of invasive procedures both in patients with and without PAD (both p for trend <0.0001). The crude in-hospital mortality rate did not significantly change over time (p for trend = 0.83). However, as compared to 2001, the risk of death was significantly lower in all other studies performed at different times, after adjustment for multiple comorbidities.. At multivariable analysis, PAD on admission was an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality [odds ratio (OR): 1.75; 95% confidence intervals (CI): 1.35-2.27; p < 0.0001]. CONCLUSIONS Over the 14 years of observation, patients with PAD and NSTE-ACS exhibited worsening baseline characteristics and a progressive increase in invasive procedures. Whereas crude in-hospital mortality did not change over time, we observed a significant reduction in comorbidity-adjusted mortality, as compared to 2001.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION During the last decade, aortic stenosis (AS) has emerged as one of the most significant concerns in cardiovascular diseases. OBJECTIVES We aimed to characterize AS patients on the basis of data derived from a local registry. PATIENTS AND METHODS We used data from the SILesian CARDiovascular (SILCARD) registry, which was developed under the agreement between the Silesian Centre for Heart Diseases in Zabrze and the Silesian branch of the Polish National Health Fund in Katowice to conduct a comprehensive analysis of patients with cardiovascular diseases in Silesian Voivodeship. RESULTS A total of 15 158 patients hospitalized with a diagnosis of AS between 2006 and 2016 were included (mean [SD] age, 69.87 [11.97] years; male patients, 7644 [50.43%]). Heart failure was reported in 4187 patients (27.62%), and coronary artery disease, in 6217 (41.01%). During the first hospitalization, aortic valve intervention was performed in 2137 patients (14.10%), and during a 12‑‑ month follow‑‑ up, in 3416 (25.32%). During the first hospitalization, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed in 666 patients (4.39%), and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), in 1071 (6.71%). At 12‑‑ month follow‑‑ up, PCI was reported in 560 patients (4.15%), and CABG, in 560 (4.15%). Between 2006 and 2016, 30‑‑ day mortality was 4.35% (659 patients) and remained stable throughout the study (5.4% in 2005 vs 4.0% in 2016, P = 0.28). The 1‑‑ year mortality was 15.88% (2142 patients) and increased from 14.3% in 2006 to 16% in 2015 (P = 0.07). CONCLUSIONS The SILCARD registry has revealed an increase in the number of AS diagnoses. AS has become one of the most critical issues among cardiovascular diseases in Silesian Voivodeship.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Coronary angiography (CAG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are frequently performed in patients presenting with a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Utilizing the National Inpatient Sample database, we assessed the trends in utilization of CAG, PCI, and coronary artery bypass grafting in 3,654,586 admissions with NSTEMI from 2001 to 2012. The rates of CAG were 54%, 36.1%, and 45.9%, respectively, in patients with normal renal function, patients with CKD not on renal replacement therapy (RRT), and patients with CKD requiring RRT. The in-hospital mortality for patients with NSTEMI was significantly higher in patients with CKD-3.9% in patients without CKD, 6.9% in CKD patients not on RRT, and 8.6% in CKD patients needing RRT. In a propensity-matched cohort of 126,740 NSTEMI admissions, CKD was associated with increased in-hospital mortality (7.9% vs 5.3%, p <0.001), acute kidney injury (34.3 % vs 10.6%, p <0.001), lower use of CAG (37.8% vs 46.4%, p <0.001), and PCI (16.2% vs 20.8, p <0.001), higher hospital costs ($17,333 vs $15,583, p <0.001), and a longer length of stay (6.8 days vs 5.5 days, p <0.001). PCI was associated with decreased mortality (odds ratio of 0.31 ± 0.01, p <0.001) in all the 3 groups. In conclusion, CKD is a marker of adverse outcomes in patients with NSTEMI. Although CAG and PCI were associated improved outcomes, they remain underutilized in these patients.

Abstract
Irisin, a recently identified myokine, regulates mitochondrial function and energy expenditure. The concentration of irisin is significantly altered after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We hypothesized that serum irisin concentration is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes after myocardial infarction. Serum irisin concentrations were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 399 patients 28d after the onset of STEMI in a prospective single-center cohort study. We assessed the association between irisin concentrations and adverse cardiovascular events during a 3-year follow-up. The excess risks of cardiovascular mortality, stroke, heart failure, and revascularization were predominantly seen among those with the highest concentrations of irisin, with concentrations higher than 75th percentile of the overall distribution had a ~4-fold increase in risk (hazard ratio=3.96, 95% confidence interval 1.55 to 10.11, P<0.01). Our findings showed that serum concentrations of irisin are elevated in post-STEMI patients with increased risk for adverse cardiovascular events. Novel therapies targeting irisin may represent a new direction in the treatment of STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some reports have demonstrated increased risk with subadventitial chronic total occlusion (CTO) crossing, whereas others suggest equipoise between subadventitial and intraplaque crossing techniques. We sought to clarify the effect of subadventitial lesion crossing on mid-term outcomes of CTO percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies reporting post-discharge outcomes after CTO PCI performed via subadventitial vs. intraplaque approaches. RESULTS Five studies comprising a total of 2,539 patients were included. Compared with intraplaque crossing (n=1,654, 65.1%), subadventitial cases (n=885, 34.9%) had a higher J-CTO score (2.9±1.2 vs. 1.6±1.2, p<0.001), and required significantly longer stent lengths (difference in means: 19.66 mm [95% confidence interval (CI), 11.23 to 28.08]; p<0.001). At a median follow-up of 12.0months, subadventitial CTO crossing was associated with a higher overall rate of target vessel revascularization (TVR, crude rate, 11.5% vs. 7.6%, odds ratio [OR]: 2.19 [95% CI, 1.62 to 2.95]; p<0.001); the risk was higher in studies of extensive compared with limited dissection and re-entry techniques (OR: 3.46 [95% CI: 2.24 to 5.36] vs. 1.52 [95% CI, 0.94 to 2.46], pinteraction=0.013). The rates of stent thrombosis, myocardial infarction, and cardiovascular mortality did not vary significantly between subadventitial and intraplaque crossing. CONCLUSIONS CTOs treated with subadventitial crossing were significantly more complex as compared with CTOs treated with intraplaque crossing. Extensive subadventitial crossing techniques were associated with higher TVR rates as compared with limited techniques, supporting the important role of limited techniques in the treatment of complex CTOs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravascular imaging with intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an important adjunct to invasive coronary angiography. OBJECTIVES The primary objective was to examine the frequency of intravascular coronary imaging, trends in imaging use, and outcomes of patients undergoing angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the United States. METHODS Adult patients ≥18 years of age undergoing in-hospital cardiac catheterization from January 2004 to December 2014 were identified from the National Inpatient Sample (NIS). International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) diagnosis and procedure codes were used to identify IVUS and OCT use during diagnostic angiography and PCI. RESULTS Among 3,211,872 hospitalizations with coronary angiography, intracoronary imaging was performed in 88,775 cases (4.8% of PCI and 1.0% of diagnostic procedures), with IVUS in 98.9% and OCT in 1.1% of cases. Among patients undergoing PCI, the rate of intravascular coronary imaging increased from 2.1% in 2004-2005 to 6.6% in 2013-2014 (P < 0.001 for trend). Use of intravascular coronary imaging was associated with lower in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing PCI (adjusted OR 0.77; 95% CI 0.71-0.83). There was marked variability in intravascular imaging by hospital, with 63% and 13% of facilities using intravascular imaging in <5% and >15% of PCIs, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In a large administrative database from the United States, intravascular imaging use was low, increased over time, and imaging was associated with reduced in-hospital mortality. Substantial variation in the frequency of intravascular imaging by hospital was observed. Additional investigation to determine clinical benefits of IVUS and OCT are warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The authors sought to describe the incidence, determinants, and outcome of elective coronary revascularization (ECR) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD). BACKGROUND Observational data are lacking regarding the practice of ECR in patients with stable CAD receiving modern secondary prevention. METHODS The authors analyzed coronary revascularization procedures performed during a 5-year follow-up in 4,094 stable CAD outpatients included in the prospective multicenter CORONOR (Suivi d'une cohorte de patients COROnariens stables en région NORd-Pas-de-Calais) registry. RESULTS Secondary prevention medications were widely prescribed at inclusion (antiplatelet agents 96.4%, statins 92.2%, renin-angiotensin system antagonists 81.8%). A total of 481 patients underwent ≥1 coronary revascularization procedure (5-year cumulative incidences of 3.6% [0.7% per year] for acute revascularizations and 8.9% [1.8% per year] for ECR); there were 677 deaths during the same period. Seven baseline variables were independently associated with ECR: prior coronary stent implantation (p < 0.0001), absence of prior myocardial infarction (p < 0.0001), higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (p < 0.0001), lower age (p < 0.0001), multivessel CAD (p = 0.003), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.005), and absence of treatment with renin-angiotensin system antagonists (p = 0.020). Main indications for ECR were angina associated with a positive stress test (31%), silent ischemia (31%), and angina alone (25%). The use of ECR had no impact on the subsequent risk of death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke (hazard ratio: 1.04; 95% confidence interval: 0.76 to 1.41). CONCLUSIONS These real-life data show that ECR is performed at a rate of 1.8% per year in stable CAD patients widely treated by secondary medical prevention. ECR procedures performed in patients without noninvasive stress tests are not rare. Having an ECR was not associated with the risk of ischemic adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine temporal trends, in-laboratory complications, mortality, and predictors of mortality among nonagenarians undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND Nonagenarians (patients 90 years of age or older) undergoing PCI are often underrepresented in clinical trials, and their management remains challenging and controversial. METHODS All veterans undergoing PCI with data recorded in the Veterans Affairs Clinical Assessment, Reporting, and Tracking program from 2005 to 2014 were evaluated. Temporal trends in the use of PCI, occurrence of in-laboratory complications, and 30-day and 1-year mortality were assessed. Using a frailty model, predictors of 30-day and 1-year mortality in nonagenarians were evaluated. RESULTS Among all veterans undergoing PCI (n = 67,148) between 2005 and 2014, 274 (0.4%) were nonagenarians. The proportion of nonagenarians increased from 0.25% in 2008 to 0.58% in 2014. Compared with younger patients, nonagenarians had a greater risk for acute cardiogenic shock post-procedure (0.73% vs. 0.12%; p = 0.04) and no reflow (2.9% vs. 1.0%; p = 0.02). Unadjusted (10.6% vs. 1.4%; p < 0.0001) and adjusted 30-day mortality (odds ratio: 2.14; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.42 to 3.22) and unadjusted (16.3% vs. 4.2%; p < 0.0001) and adjusted 1-year mortality (odds ratio: 1.82; 95% CI: 1.27 to 2.62) were higher among PCI patients who were nonagenarians. The National Cardiovascular Data Registry risk score was highly predictive of both 30-day (hazard ratio: 2.29; 95% CI: 1.86 to 2.82) and 1-year (hazard ratio: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.07 to 1.90) mortality among nonagenarians. CONCLUSIONS Nonagenarians were a small but growing population with worse 30-day and 1-year mortality. The National Cardiovascular Data Registry risk score was a strong predictor of mortality in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS The difference in clinical presentations (acute coronary syndrome [ACS] and stable coronary artery disease [SCAD]) and related angiographic morphologies of sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) failure requiring target lesion revascularization (TLR) during early-term (<1year), late-term (1-5years), and very late-term periods (>5years) remains unknown. METHODS Among 4484 lesions undergoing SES implantation, clinically-driven TLR was performed on 105 lesions during early-term, 169 lesions during late-term, and 147 lesions during very late-term period. Angiographic morphological patterns were divided into focal or non-focal patterns and stent-edge or stent-body patterns. RESULTS The proportion of ACS substantially increased in very late TLR lesions (57.1%) from early (40.0%, p=0.01) and late TLR lesions (36.7%, p<0.001). The proportions of both stent-edge and non-focal patterns were higher in very late TLR lesions than in early and late TLR lesions. Although the stent-edge pattern tended to be more prevalent in SCAD lesions than in ACS lesions during the early- and late-term periods, it was more frequently observed in ACS lesions than in SCAD lesions during the very late-term period (65.5% vs. 47.6%, p=0.04). The non-focal pattern was more frequent in ACS lesions than in SCAD lesions during all 3 periods. However, the proportion of the non-focal pattern in ACS lesions was extremely high during the very late-term (90.5%) compared with the early- (47.6%, p<0.001) and late-term periods (48.4%, p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Stent-related ACS became more common beyond 5years after SES implantation. Stent-edge and non-focal patterns were the main angiographic morphologies of very late SES failure, particularly causing ACS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although octogenarians constitute a fast-growing portion of cardiovascular patients, few data are available on the outcome of patients aged ≥85 years with ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI). METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed 126 consecutive patients aged ≥85 years (age 88±2 years) with STEMI, undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) within 12 hours from symptoms onset. Long-term follow-up (median 898 days) was obtained for the 102 patients surviving the index-hospitalization. In-hospital mortality rate was 19%. Nonagenarians, diabetes mellitus, severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction and intra-aortic balloon pumping were significantly and independently correlated to in-hospital mortality at the multivariate analysis. A low rate of complications was detected. Among patients surviving the index hospitalization, 32 (31%) patients died during follow-up. 55 patients (54%) had re-hospitalization due to cardiovascular causes. The univariate analysis identified chronic renal failure, Killip class ≥ 3, TIMI Risk Score >8 and very high risk of bleeding as predictors of long-term overall mortality. At the multivariate analysis only chronic renal failure and very high risk of bleeding were significantly and independently correlated to long-term all-cause mortality. Renal function and anterior myocardial infarction were significantly and independently associated with the combined end-point of cardiac mortality and re-hospitalization due to cardiovascular disease at the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS PPCI in patients ≥85 years old is relatively safe. In this population, pPCI is associated with a good long-term survival, although still worse than in younger patients, despite a considerable incidence of re-hospitalization due to cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Persistence or recurrence of angina after successful percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) represent an important clinical issue involving from one fifth to one third of patients undergoing myocardial revascularization at one-year follow-up. A systematic approach to this syndrome is strongly needed. Precision medicine is particularly important in addressing angina after successful PCI because of the multiple underlying causes. Restenosis or coronary atherosclerosis progression explain symptom recurrence after successful PCI in some patients, while functional causes, including vasomotor abnormalities of epicardial coronary arteries and/or coronary microvascular dysfunction, explain symptoms in the remaining patients. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms of persistent or recurrent angina after PCI, proposing a diagnostic algorithm and a systematic therapeutic approach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes mellitus is associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The vascular burden in terms of incidence of cardiovascular events (CVE) and vascular interventions is however poorly quantified. In this study we evaluated the incidence rates of CVE and vascular interventions in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) with and without cardiovascular disease (CVD) in comparison to patients without type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In a cohort of 9.808 high-risk patients with and without cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes originated from the ongoing, single-center prospective SMART (Second Manifestations of ARTerial disease) cohort, the number and incidence rates of CVE and interventions were calculated. The incidence rates were adjusted for confounders using Poisson regression models. CVE were defined as vascular death, stroke and myocardial infarction (MI). Interventions were defined as percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary artery bypass grafting, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty or stenting of the peripheral arteries and amputation. RESULTS Patients with T2DM and CVD had a 4-fold higher incidence rate of CVE and a 8-fold higher incidence rate of vascular interventions compared to high-risk patients without T2DM and CVD after adjusting for confounders. The incidence rate for the composite of non-fatal MI, non-fatal stroke and vascular death was 5.8 per 1000person-years in patients without T2DM or CVD at baseline, 15.2 per 1000person-years in patients with T2DM but without CVD at baseline, 26.0 per 1000person-years in patients without T2DM but with CVD and 40.7 per 1000person-years in patients with both T2DM and CVD at baseline. A similar increasing incidence rate was seen for all vascular interventions from patients without T2DM or CVD to patients with both T2DM and CVD. CONCLUSIONS Patients with type 2 diabetes or CVD are subject to an increased incidence of cardiovascular events and interventions compared to high-risk patients without type 2 diabetes or vascular disease. Patients with type 2 diabetes and CVD have the highest incidence of new cardiovascular diseases and vascular interventions when compared to patients without type 2 diabetes and CVD. These results underline the need for optimal risk factor treatment as well as the need for new prevention and treatment strategies in this very high risk population.

Abstract
AIMS To audit the management of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients admitted to a New Zealand Hospital over three 14-day periods to review their number, characteristics, management and outcome changes over a decade. METHODS The acute coronary syndrome (ACS) audits were conducted over 14 days in May of 2002, 2007 and 2012 at New Zealand Hospitals admitting patients with a suspected or definite ACS. Longitudinal analyses of the STEMI subgroup are reported. RESULTS From 2002 to 2012, the largest change in management was the proportion of patients undergoing reperfusion by primary PCI from 3% to 15% and 41%; P<0.001, and the rates of second antiplatelet agent use in addition to aspirin from 14% to 62% and 98%; P<0.001. The use of proven secondary prevention medications at discharge also increased during the decade. There were also significant increases in cardiac investigations for patients, especially echocardiograms (35%, 62% and 70%, P<0.001) and invasive coronary angiograms (31%, 58% and 87%, P<0.001). Notably even in 2012, one in four patients presenting with STEMI did not receive any reperfusion therapy. CONCLUSIONS Substantial improvements have been seen in the management of STEMI patients in New Zealand over the last decade, in accordance with evidenced-based guideline recommendations. However, there appears to be considerable room to optimise management, particularly with the use of timely reperfusion therapy for more patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronary spasm is the major pathophysiology of vasospastic angina (VA). Medical treatment is usually effective in VA patients without significant stenosis. However, there is little information about the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in VA patients with significant coronary artery stenosis (CAS). METHODS After retrospective screening of all consecutive VA patients from January 2010 to April 2015, we selected significant CAS (>50% of diameter stenosis) after nitrate injection and divided them into two groups according to the presence of PCI. RESULTS A total of 220 VA patients (41 females, mean age: 58±10years old) were screened, and 85 were included in this study. Males were predominant in the VA with significant CAS group (89 vs 76%, p=0.020). PCI was done in 43 patients (51%). The most common culprit coronary artery was the left anterior descending coronary artery (18, 42%), diameter stenosis was significantly higher (66±9 vs 61±10%, p<0.01), and total number of antianginal medication was significantly lower in the PCI group than in the medical group (1.7±0.9 vs 2.1±0.8, p=0.039). Moreover, 4 patients underwent PCI to control symptoms in the medical treatment group during the follow-up period (26±13months). However, additional antiplatelet therapy was necessary in patients with coronary angioplasty, and there were 2 cases with complication associated with angioplasty (1 restenosis and 1 bleeding complication). CONCLUSION In VA patients with significant CAS, both treatment modalities showed similar clinical outcomes. Although the PCI can afford symptomatic improvement, it needed additional antiplatelet medications and can be associated with procedural complications.

Abstract
Optimal revascularization strategy in patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease remains a matter of debate, with advantages and disadvantages in both surgical and percutaneous procedures. A combined approach to achieve coronary revascularization, termed "hybrid coronary revascularization" (HCR), has been recently introduced in clinical practice. HCR is defined as a scheduled combination of surgical left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending (LIMA-LAD) grafting and percutaneous treatment of at least one non-LAD coronary arteries, with both procedures planned and performed within a defined time limit. HCR is indicated in case of both proximal LAD disease eligible to surgical LIMA-LAD grafting and non-LAD disease amenable to percutaneous procedures. Reviews and metanalysis of the literature showed that HCR is non-inferior to conventional surgical myocardial revascularization, and in case of high-risk patients, HCR can be the ideal option. However, the various technical approaches and time-related steps need to be further evaluated. Present and future research in interventional cardiology and cardiac surgery will turn into parallel improvements in HCR procedures. Surgical revascularization with off-pump techniques and minimally-invasive approaches, scoring systems such as SYNTAX II, tools evaluating the hemodynamic significance of atherosclerotic plaques with physiology-based approaches such as fractional flow reserve and instantaneous wave-free ratio, newer generation drug eluting stents, newer antiplatelet agents, and therapies might improve indications and clinical outcomes after HCR procedures. This article reviews the current literature on HCR and aims to provide an overview about future developments.

Abstract
AIMS The first New Zealand Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) national audit of 2002 was a collaborative effort between clinicians and nurses, and demonstrated important limitations to Non ST-elevation ACS patient (NSTEACS) care. A momentum for change was created. Subsequent audits in 2007 and 2012 allow assessment over time. METHODS Over 14 days in May 2002, 2007 and 2012, patients with suspected ACS admitted to a hospital in New Zealand were audited. 'Definite' ACS was determined at discharge, after in-hospital investigations; we reviewed NSTEACS patients. RESULTS From 2002, more patients underwent assessment of left ventricular function (echocardiogram) and coronary angiography. Evidence-based in-hospital medical treatments and revascularisation have also increased over the decade. CONCLUSIONS Over a ten-year period, evidence-based care for patients presenting with a NSTEACS event in New Zealand has improved. However, considerable room remains to optimise management, particularly with development of systems of care to facilitate prompt referral and delivery of angiography in these high-risk individuals.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Appropriate Use Criteria for Coronary Revascularization were developed to critically evaluate and improve patient selection for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). National trends in the appropriateness of PCI have not been examined. OBJECTIVE To examine trends in PCI utilization, patient selection, and procedural appropriateness following the introduction of Appropriate Use Criteria. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Multicenter, longitudinal, cross-sectional analysis of patients undergoing PCI between July 1, 2009, and December 31, 2014, at hospitals continuously participating in the National Cardiovascular Data Registry CathPCI registry over the study period. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Proportion of nonacute PCIs classified as inappropriate at the patient and hospital level using the 2012 Appropriate Use Criteria for Coronary Revascularization. RESULTS A total of 2.7 million PCI procedures from 766 hospitals were included. Annual PCI volume of acute indications was consistent over the study period (377,540 in 2010; 374,543 in 2014), but the volume of nonacute PCIs decreased from 89,704 in 2010 to 59,375 in 2014. Among patients undergoing nonacute PCI, there were significant increases in angina severity (Canadian Cardiovascular Society grade III/IV angina, 15.8% in 2010 and 38.4% in 2014), use of antianginal medications prior to PCI (at least 2 antianginal medications, 22.3% in 2010 and 35.1% in 2014), and high-risk findings on noninvasive testing (22.2% in 2010 and 33.2% in 2014) (P < .001 for all), but only modest increases in multivessel coronary artery disease (43.7% in 2010 and 47.5% in 2014, P < .001). The proportion of nonacute PCIs classified as inappropriate decreased from 26.2% (95% CI, 25.8%-26.6%) to 13.3% (95% CI, 13.1%-13.6%), and the absolute number of inappropriate PCIs decreased from 21,781 to 7921. Hospital-level variation in the proportion of PCIs classified as inappropriate persisted over the study period (median, 12.6% [interquartile range, 5.9%-22.9%] in 2014). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Since the publication of the Appropriate Use Criteria for Coronary Revascularization in 2009, there have been significant reductions in the volume of nonacute PCI. The proportion of nonacute PCIs classified as inappropriate has declined, although hospital-level variation in inappropriate PCI persists.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the temporal trends and in-hospital outcomes of primary PCI in nonagenarian STEMI patients. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data from the Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR) from November 2005 to January 2008, and from the Korea Working Group on Myocardial Infarction (KorMI) from February 2008 to May 2010. RESULTS During this period, the proportion of nonagenarians among STEMI patients more than doubled (0.59% in KAMIR vs. 1.35% in KorMI), and the rate of use of primary PCI also increased (from 62.5% in KAMIR to 81.0% in KorMI). We identified 84 eligible study patients for which the overall in-hospital mortality rate was 21.4% (25.0% in KAMIR vs. 20.3% in KorMI, p = 0.919). Multivariate analysis identified two independent predictors of in-hospital mortality, namely a final Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow < 3 (odds ratio [OR], 13.7; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.2 to 59.0; p < 0.001) and cardiogenic shock during hospitalization (OR, 6.7; 95% CI, 1.5 to 30.3; p = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS The number of nonagenarian STEMI patients who have undergone primary PCI has increased. Although a final TIMI flow < 3 and cardiogenic shock are independent predictors of in-hospital mortality, primary PCI can be performed with a high success rate and an acceptable in-hospital mortality rate.
