Abstract
Abstract
Background
Currently, cryoballoon ablation (CBA) has proven to be highly effective in achieving free from atrial fibrillation (AF), especially paroxysmal AF. However, the optimal freezing protocol for each patient to achieve successful pulmonary vein isolation by only CBA is still uncertain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical implications of a reduction in the freezing duration (<180s) during CBA guided by the time to target temperature.
Methods
From November 2015 to August 2018, 286 consecutive paroxysmal AF patients undergoing CBA were enrolled. We compared 107 patients undergoing a tailor-made CBA procedure (Group A; August 2017-August 2018) to 179 patients with a standard CBA procedure (Group B; November 2015–July 2017). In Group A, the freezing duration was reduced to 150s when the temperature reached ≤−40°C within 40s. Furthermore, we reduced it to 120s when it reached ≤−50°C within 60s. In the other patients, the freezing time was 180s except for excessive freezing over −60°C and/or emergent situations while monitoring the esophageal temperature and for phrenic nerve injury as in Group B.
Results
The baseline clinical characteristics were similar between two groups. In Group A, 89 patients (83%) underwent CBA with a reduction in the freezing time. The rate of having reduction time in left inferior PV (LIPV) and right inferior PV (RIPV) was lower compared with left superior PV (LSPV) and right superior PV (RSPV) (respectively 17%, 29%, 56%, and 63.5%). However, for right inferior PV, in 31 patients having the reduced freezing time, none of them required touch-up ablation. Although the procedure time and frequency of touch-up ablation did not differ between the 2 groups, total freezing time for each PV was significantly shorter in Group A than Group B as shown in figure (LSPV: 164±28s vs. 216±67s; p<0.001, LIPV: 187±44s vs. 218±69s; p<0.001, RSPV: 147±31s vs. 192±51s; p<0.001, RIPV: 180±50 vs. 218±73s; p<0.001). The AF free survival rate during the follow-up period (356±167 days) was similar between the 2 groups (log-rank test, p=0.38). Furthermore, the complication rate was similar 2 groups.
The freezing time for each PV
Conclusion
The safety and efficacy of the new tailor-made CBA strategy were non-inferior to the standard procedure. This study showed that the unnecessary freezing time could be reduced in most of paroxysmal AF patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Cardiac troponin (cTn) is the preferred biomarker for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Octogenarians who presented cTn positive AMI are not usually recruited in clinical trials. Therefore, their clinical characteristics and prognosis are rarely investigated.
Objective
To study the characteristics and prognosis in octogenarians who presented cTn positive AMI.
Methods and results
The Japanese registry of acute Myocardial INfarction diagnosed by Universal dEfiniTion (J-MINUET) is a prospective and multicenter registry. A total of 3,283 consecutive AMI patients who were diagnosed by cTn-based criteria were included. The patients were divided into non-octogenarians (n=2,593) and octogenarians (n=690). Compared with non- octogenarians, octogenarians showed significantly lower incidence of diabetes mellitus (37.6% and 31.9%, p=0.006) and dyslipidemia (53.6% and 45.6%, p<0.001), and significantly higher incidence of hypertension (64.1% and 75.3%, p<0.001) and chronic kidney disease (38.7% and 68.7%, p<0.001). Octogenarians showed significantly longer onset to door time (p<0.001) and longer door to device time (p<0.001). Though, compared with non-octogenarians, octogenarians showed lower peak CK (2,506 and 1,926, p<0.001), LVEF was significantly lower in octogenarians (54.6% and 52.6%, p=0.005). The presentation of AMI was different between the two group. The incidence of ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) was 70.7% in non-octogenarians and 62.0% in octogenarians. Non-STEMI with CK elevation and without CK elevation were 16.2% and 13.1% in non- octogenarians, and 20.9% and 17.1% in octogenarians. In-hospital mortality was higher in octogenarians (4.7% and 13.2%, P<0.001). Especially, octogenarians with STEMI and non-STEMI with CK elevation showed the highest in-hospital mortality. And octogenarians without CK elevation showed similar in hospital mortality with non-octogenarians with STEMI (Figure).
Conclusions
J-MINUET showed the poor prognosis of octogenarians who were diagnosed as AMI based on cTn.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Drug-eluting stent restenosis (DES-ISR) is associated with poorer outcomes than those of bare-metal stent restenosis after treatment with paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB), and late restenosis after PCB angioplasty for DES-ISR is a residual problem. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is thought to be advantageous for ISR treatment by removing neointima. However, whether the combination of ELCA and PCB angioplasty is more effective than the use of PCB only angioplasty in DES-ISR has not been studied so far.
Purpose
We evaluated the efficacy of ELCA and PCB combination therapy for DES-ISR at mid-and late-term after revascularization.
Methods
From January 2014 to March 2016, 166 DES-ISR lesions were treated with ELCA and no-ELCA prior to PCB. Two serial angiographic follow-ups were planned for the patients (at 6–12 and 18–24 months after procedure). Acute procedural and follow-up angiographic results were assessed by quantitative coronary angiography. ELCA and no-ELCA group included 74 lesions and 92 lesions, respectively.
Results
There was no significant difference between the two groups in the clinical characteristics except the prevalence of hemodialysis, the rate of first-generation DES (37.9% vs 36.8%, p=0.897), previous stent size (2.90±0.39 mm vs 2.77±0.39 mm, p=0.063), and reference vessel diameter (2.65±0.46 mm vs 2.60±0.65 mm, p=0.593). Early follow-up angiography was performed in 66 lesions (89.1%) of ELCA group, and was done in 76 lesions (82.6%) of no-ELCA group. In the ELCA group, percentage diameter stenosis (%DS) just after procedure and at 6–12 months later were significantly smaller than those of no-ELCA group. Besides, target lesion revascularization (TLR) rate at 6–12 months after procedure was tended to be lower in the ELCA group. Late follow-up angiography was performed for 93 lesions (81.6%) of the remaining 114 lesions (excluding TLR lesion), late restenosis was found 9 lesions (18.6%) in the ELCA group and 11 lesions (24.4%) in the no-ELCA group (p=0.504). Late luminal loss was similar in both groups (0.37±0.71 mm vs 0.24±0.82 mm, p=0.438), and %DS at 12–18 months after revascularization was not different between the two groups.
Changes of %DS and TLR rate
Conclusions
%DS in the ELCA group was smaller at just after procedure and the advantage was kept even after 1-year. However, late restenosis and TLR at 2-year after revascularization for DES-ISR could not be reduced by ELCA and PCB combination therapy.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The CHADS2score has mainly been used to predict the likelihood of cerebrovascular accidents in patients with atrial fibrillation. However, increasing attention is being paid to this scoring system for risk stratification of patients with coronary artery disease. We investigated the value of the CHADS2 score in predicting cardiovascular events in Japanese acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients without atrial fibrillation.
Methods
To elucidate the prognostic value of CHADS2score in AMI patients, we analysed data of the Japanese registry of acute Myocardial INfarction diagnosed by Universal dEfiniTion (J-MINUET). This was a prospective and multicenter registry consisting of 3,283 AMI patients, who were hospitalized within 48-hours of onset from July 2012 to March 2014. We calculated the CHADS2 scores for 3,044 patients without clinical evidence of atrial fibrillation. The presence of heart failure was substituted by Killip classification>2 on admission. Clinical follow-up data was obtained for 3 years. In addition to the in-hospital mortality,we evaluated cardiovascular events, defined as all cause deathor non-fatal MI during 3-year follow up periods.
Results
In this study, enrolled patients were classified into low- (point 0–1), intermediate- (point 2–3), and high-score (point 4–6) groups by calculating CHADS2 score. Overall patients with low, intermediate and high score were divided into 1,395, 1,393 and 256 patients, respectively. In-hospital mortality among low, intermediate, and high score groups were 2.8%, 7.4% and 14.8%, respectively (P<0.001). The incidence of cardiovascular eventsamong low, intermediate, and high score groups were 7.8%, 16.3%, 29.3%, respectively (P<0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a significant difference between the groups (Figure). The event rates were significantly higher in both high score and intermediate score group than in low score group (P<0.001). Multivariate Cox hazard analysis identified CHADS2 score (per 1 point) as an independent predictor of cardiovascular events in addition to chronic kidney disease and lower body mass index. (hazard ratio, 1.344; 95% CI, 1.239–1.459; P<0.001). Among the factors constituting CHADS2 score, heart failure and age were identified as independent predictors for in-hospital mortality. With respect to the cardiovascular event during 3 years, heart failure, age, and previous stroke were revealed as significant independent predictors.
Conclusion
This large cohort study indicated that the CHADS2 score is useful for the prediction of in-hospital mortality and the cardiovascular events during 3-year follow up in Japanese AMI patients without atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score are contemporary secondary prevention risk scoring systems. However, these scoring systems have not been validated in other populations.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to validate of the TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score in patients in the early phase of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Methods
The Japanese registry of acute Myocardial INfarction diagnosed by Universal dEfiniTion (J-MINUET) is a prospective multicenter registry conducted in 28 Japanese medical institutions. We enrolled 3,283 consecutive patients with AMI who were admitted to participating institutions within 48 hours of symptom onset between July 2012 and May 2014. Among them, 3,070 patients were included in this study after excluding 213 patients who died in the hospital. Clinical follow-up data were obtained up to 3 years. The primary endpoint was a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke. The patients were stratified by the TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score.
Results
At the 3-year follow-up, the primary endpoint had occurred in 337 patients (11.0%). All-cause death, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke had occurred in 177 (5.8%), 80 (2.6%) and 80 (2.6%) patients, respectively. TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score showed a graded association with the composite of all-cause death, non-fatal MI and non-fatal stroke at 3 years in the J-MINUET population (Figure).
Validation of atherothrombotic risk
Conclusions
TIMI Risk Score for Secondary Prevention and CREDO-Kyoto Thrombotic Risk Score were shown to be applicable to the patients in the early phase of AMI.
