Summary: The study demonstrated a significant association between high TMAO levels and cardiovascular disease-related mortality in patients with ACS, particularly in those with diabetes. Measuring TMAO levels may be a useful predictor of long-term CV mortality in ACS patients.

Summary: The study found that diabetic patients with AMI who had a mean HbA1c of 6.5 to 7.0% had the lowest all-cause mortality. In patients aged 65 and older, there was a J-curve relationship between mean HbA1c and all-cause mortality, suggesting that less strict glycemic control may be more optimal for preventing mortality in this group of patients.

Summary: This study investigated the association between pulse pressure and long-term mortality in ACS patients who underwent PCI, finding a U-shaped relationship between pulse pressure and mortality in the whole cohort, but this relationship disappeared in the LVEF >0.5 cohort. The reference pulse pressure level was 55 mm Hg.

Summary: Radial artery access in percutaneous coronary intervention is associated with lower all-cause mortality up to 3 years compared to femoral access. Radial access is also linked to reduced risks of myocardial infarction and unplanned revascularization, but not stroke. These benefits are sustained beyond the early postoperative period.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the long-term outcomes of patients with chronic inflammatory diseases who underwent PCI. Results showed that patients with AIRD and IBD are at higher risk for cardiovascular events in long-term follow up once diagnosed with CAD and treated with PCI.

Summary: This study compared the long-term prognosis between single-vessel PCI (SV-PCI) and multivessel PCI (MV-PCI) in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MV-CAD) presenting with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). The results showed no significant difference in the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) at 2 years between SV-PCI and MV-PCI groups, indicating that MV-PCI is not superior to SV-PCI in terms of long-term MACCE in NSTE-ACS patients with MV-CAD.

Summary: Although cardiogenic shock has a certain predictive value in patients with acute coronary syndrome, its impact on long-term mortality rate seems to be less significant. Particularly, patients over 55 years of age with impaired left ventricular function and kidney disease are at higher risk of cardiovascular mortality during follow-up.

Summary: This study reveals that there is an inverse relationship between the volume of primary, elective, and total PCI performed in hospitals and in-hospital mortality in patients with acute MI undergoing primary PCI. Additionally, a lower ratio of primary to total PCI volume is associated with higher in-hospital mortality, suggesting it as an indicator of quality of care for acute MI.

Summary: In patients undergoing PCI, women have a higher unadjusted long-term mortality rate but are independently associated with improved long-term survival after adjusting for other significant variables. Women may have a long-term survival advantage despite older age and different clinical profiles and interventional approaches.

Summary: This population-based study on patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) found that individuals who received cardiac stress testing (CST) had a slightly lower risk of cardiovascular events. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and determine specific aspects of care that may contribute to improved clinical outcomes.

Summary: This study investigated a telemedicine-based system for monitoring vital signs in patients with COVID-19. The results showed that the system was user-friendly, reliable, and had excellent agreements with healthcare provider measurements. Therefore, during the COVID-19 pandemic, this system can serve as a useful alternative.

Summary: This study evaluated the impact of Lp(a) levels on long-term cardiovascular outcomes in ACS patients treated with statins. It found that high Lp(a) levels were significantly associated with a higher risk of MACE, suggesting that Lp(a) could be a potential biomarker for predicting residual risk of future clinical events.

Summary: The long-term use of beta-blockers was significantly associated with an increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events in elderly patients with CAD without MI or systolic HF. In particular, the chronotropic incompetence action of beta-blockers could increase the risk of admission for HF in these patients, warranting further investigation.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the clinical characteristics and predictors of prognosis in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients who experienced out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The results showed that younger age, absence of diabetes mellitus or dyslipidemia, left main trunk or left anterior descending artery as the culprit lesion, and renal deficiency were significantly associated with incidence of OHCA in AMI patients.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate whether left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) improves in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and heart failure (HF) after 1 month of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, and to clarify which factors are associated with the degree of LVEF improvement. The results showed significant improvement in LVEF after 1 month of CPAP therapy, and age and body mass index (BMI) were identified as significant determinants of LVEF improvement.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of -P2Y12 inhibitors on the -P2Y12 reaction unit (PRU) in the chronic phase after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The results showed that clopidogrel treatment had a higher proportion of ischemic risk than prasugrel 2.5 mg. Prasugrel 2.5 mg also contributed to a decline in bleeding risk with dose reduction.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the quantitative relationship between serum ApoE and HDL-C levels and their impact on arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular events in patients with CAD. The results showed a significant interaction between serum ApoE levels and HDL-C status in the occurrence of cardiovascular events. Multivariable analysis adjusted for important covariates revealed that serum ApoE levels were independent predictors of cardiovascular events in CAD patients.

Summary: This study compared the characteristics of coronary plaques using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) (NIRS-IVUS), and investigated the ability of CMR to identify high-intensity plaques (HIPs) at risk of peri-procedural myocardial infarction (pMI) before percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The results demonstrated a significant correlation between CMR-derived HIPs and NIRS-IVUS-identified large lipid-rich plaques (LRP). Rating: 8/10
