Abstract: Background and hypothesisThe recently introduced Bayesian quantile regression (BQR) machine-learning method enables comprehensive analyzing the relationship among complex clinical variables. We analyzed the relationship between multiple cardiovascular (CV) risk factors and different stages of coronary artery disease (CAD) using the BQR model in a vessel-specific manner.MethodsFrom the data of 1,463 patients obtained from the PARADIGM (NCT02803411) registry, we analyzed the lumen diameter stenosis (DS) of the three vessels: left anterior descending (LAD), left circumflex (LCx), and right coronary artery (RCA). Two models for predicting DS and DS changes were developed. Baseline CV risk factors, symptoms, and laboratory test results were used as the inputs. The conditional 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 90% quantile functions of the maximum DS and DS change of the three vessels were estimated using the BQR model.ResultsThe 90th percentiles of the DS of the three vessels and their maximum DS change were 41%-50% and 5.6%-7.3%, respectively. Typical anginal symptoms were associated with the highest quantile (90%) of DS in the LAD; diabetes with higher quantiles (75% and 90%) of DS in the LCx; dyslipidemia with the highest quantile (90%) of DS in the RCA; and shortness of breath showed some association with the LCx and RCA. Interestingly, High-density lipoprotein cholesterol showed a dynamic association along DS change in the per-patient analysis.ConclusionsThis study demonstrates the clinical utility of the BQR model for evaluating the comprehensive relationship between risk factors and baseline-grade CAD and its progression.

Abstract: Cardiac ischemia during daily life is associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes. Mental stress is known to provoke cardiac ischemia and is related to psychological variables. In this multicenter cohort study, we assessed whether psychological characteristics were associated with ischemia in daily life.This study examined patients with clinically stable coronary artery disease (CAD) with documented cardiac ischemia during treadmill exercise (n = 196, mean [standard deviation] age = 62.64 [8.31] years; 13% women). Daily life ischemia (DLI) was assessed by 48-hour ambulatory electrocardiophic monitoring. Psychological characteristics were assessed using validated instruments to identify characteristics associated with ischemia occurring in daily life stress.High scores on anger and hostility were common in this sample of patients with CAD, and DLI was documented in 83 (42%) patients. However, the presence of DLI was associated with lower anger scores (odds ratio [OR] = 2.03; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.12-3.69), reduced anger expressiveness (OR = 2.04; 95% CI = 1.10-3.75), and increased ratio of anger control to total anger (OR = 2.33; 95% CI = 1.27-4.17). Increased risk of DLI was also associated with lower hostile attribution (OR = 2.22; 95% CI = 1.21-4.09), hostile affect (OR = 1.92; 95% CI = 1.03-3.58), and aggressive responding (OR = 2.26; 95% CI = 1.25-4.08). We observed weak inverse correlations between DLI episode frequency and anger expressiveness, total anger, and hostility scores. DLI was not associated with depression or anxiety measures. The combination of the constructs low anger expressiveness and low hostile attribution was independently associated with DLI (OR = = 2.59; 95% CI = 1.42-4.72).In clinically stable patients with CAD, the tendency to suppress angry and hostile feelings, particularly openly aggressive behavior, was associated with DLI. These findings warrant a study in larger cohorts, and intervention studies are needed to ascertain whether management strategies that modify these psychological characteristics improve outcomes.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Among patients with stable coronary disease and moderate or severe ischemia, whether clinical outcomes are better in those who receive an invasive intervention plus medical therapy than in those who receive medical therapy alone is uncertain. METHODS: We randomly assigned 5179 patients with moderate or severe ischemia to an initial invasive strategy (angiography and revascularization when feasible) and medical therapy or to an initial conservative strategy of medical therapy alone and angiography if medical therapy failed. The primary outcome was a composite of death from cardiovascular causes, myocardial infarction, or hospitalization for unstable angina, heart failure, or resuscitated cardiac arrest. A key secondary outcome was death from cardiovascular causes or myocardial infarction. RESULTS: Over a median of 3.2 years, 318 primary outcome events occurred in the invasive-strategy group and 352 occurred in the conservative-strategy group. At 6 months, the cumulative event rate was 5.3% in the invasive-strategy group and 3.4% in the conservative-strategy group (difference, 1.9 percentage points; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.8 to 3.0); at 5 years, the cumulative event rate was 16.4% and 18.2%, respectively (difference, -1.8 percentage points; 95% CI, -4.7 to 1.0). Results were similar with respect to the key secondary outcome. The incidence of the primary outcome was sensitive to the definition of myocardial infarction; a secondary analysis yielded more procedural myocardial infarctions of uncertain clinical importance. There were 145 deaths in the invasive-strategy group and 144 deaths in the conservative-strategy group (hazard ratio, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.83 to 1.32). CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with stable coronary disease and moderate or severe ischemia, we did not find evidence that an initial invasive strategy, as compared with an initial conservative strategy, reduced the risk of ischemic cardiovascular events or death from any cause over a median of 3.2 years. The trial findings were sensitive to the definition of myocardial infarction that was used.

Abstract: Aims The magnitude of alterations in which coronary arteries remodel and narrow over time is not well understood. We aimed to examine changes in coronary arterial remodelling and luminal narrowing by three-dimensional (3D) metrics from serial coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Methods and results From a multicentre registry of patients with suspected coronary artery disease who underwent clinically indicated serial CCTA (median interscan interval = 3.3 years), we quantitatively measured coronary plaque, vessel, and lumen volumes on both scans. Primary outcome was the per-segment change in coronary vessel and lumen volume from a change in plaque volume, focusing on arterial remodelling. Multivariate generalized estimating equations including statins were calculated comparing associations between groups of baseline percent atheroma volume (PAV) and location within the coronary artery tree. From 1245 patients (mean age 61 ± 9 years, 39% women), a total of 5721 segments were analysed. For each 1.00 mm3 increase in plaque volume, the vessel volume increased by 0.71 mm3 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.63 to 0.79 mm3, P < 0.001] with a corresponding reduction in lumen volume by 0.29 mm3 (95% CI −0.37 to −0.21 mm3, P < 0.001). Serial 3D arterial remodelling and luminal narrowing was similar in segments with low and high baseline PAV (P ≥ 0.496). No differences were observed between left main and non-left main segments, proximal and distal segments and side branch and non-side branch segments (P ≥ 0.281). Conclusions Over time, atherosclerotic coronary plaque reveals prominent outward arterial remodelling that co-occurs with modest luminal narrowing. These findings provide additional insight into the compensatory mechanisms involved in the progression of coronary atherosclerosis.

Abstract: BACKGROUND The association between the change in vessel inflammation, as quantified by perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) density, and the progression of coronary atherosclerosis remains to be determined.OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to explore the association between the change in PVAT density and the progression of total and compositional plaque volume (PV). METHODS Patients were selected from a prospective multinational registry. Patients who underwent serial coronary computed tomography angiography studies with $2-year intervals and were scanned with the same tube voltage at baseline and follow-up were included. Total and compositional PV and PVAT density at baseline and follow-up were quantitatively analyzed for every lesion. Multivariate linear regression models using cluster analyses were constructed.RESULTS A total of 1,476 lesions were identified from 474 enrolled patients (mean age 61.2 +/- 9.3 years; 65.0% men). The mean PVAT density was-74.1 +/- 11.5 HU, and total PV was 48.1 +/- 83.5 mm3 (19.2 +/- 44.8 mm3 of calcified PV and 28.9 +/- 51.0 mm3 of noncalcified PV). On multivariate analysis (adjusted for clinical risk factors, medication use, change in lipid levels, total PV at baseline, luminal HU attenuation, location of lesions, and tube voltage), the increase in PVAT density was positively associated with the progression of total PV (estimate = 0.275 [95% CI: 0.004-0.545]; P = 0.047), driven by the association with fibrous PV (estimate = 0.245 [95% CI: 0.070-0.420]; P = 0.006). Calcified PV progression was not associated with the increase in PVAT density (P > 0.050). CONCLUSIONS Increase in vessel inflammation represented by PVAT density is independently associated with the progression of the lipid component of coronary atherosclerotic plaques.

Abstract: Background and aims: Clinical atherosclerosis manifestations are different in women compared to men. Since endothelial shear stress (ESS) is known to play a critical role in coronary atherosclerosis development, we investigated differences in anatomical characteristics and endothelial shear stress (ESS)–related plaque growth in human coronary arteries in men compared to women. Methods: 1183 coronary arteries (male/female: 944/239) from the PREDICTION study were studied for differences in artery/plaque and ESS characteristics, and ESS-related plaque progression (6–10 months follow-up) among men and women and after stratification for age. All characteristics were derived from IVUS-based vascular profiling and reported per 3 mm-segments (13,030 3-mm-segments (male/female: 10,465/2,565)). Results: Coronary arteries and plaques were significantly smaller in females compared to males; but no important differences were observed in plaque burden, ESS and rate of plaque progression. Change in plaque burden was inversely related to ESS (p

Abstract: Importance: Distinct plaque locations and vessel geometric features predispose to altered coronary flow hemodynamics. The association between these lesion-level characteristics assessed by coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) and risk of future acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is unknown. Objective: To examine whether CCTA-derived adverse geometric characteristics (AGCs) of coronary lesions describing location and vessel geometry add to plaque morphology and burden for identifying culprit lesion precursors associated with future ACS. Design, Setting, and Participants: This substudy of ICONIC (Incident Coronary Syndromes Identified by Computed Tomography), a multicenter nested case-control cohort study, included patients with ACS and a culprit lesion precursor identified on baseline CCTA (n = 116) and propensity score-matched non-ACS controls (n = 116). Data were collected from July 20, 2012, to April 30, 2017, and analyzed from October 1, 2020, to October 31, 2021. Exposures: Coronary lesions were evaluated for the following 3 AGCs: (1) distance from the coronary ostium to lesion; (2) location at vessel bifurcations; and (3) vessel tortuosity, defined as the presence of 1 bend of greater than 90° or 3 curves of 45° to 90° using a 3-point angle within the lesion. Main Outcomes and Measures: Association between lesion-level AGCs and risk of future ACS-causing culprit lesions. Results: Of 548 lesions, 116 culprit lesion precursors were identified in 116 patients (80 [69.0%] men; mean [SD], age 62.7 [11.5] years). Compared with nonculprit lesions, culprit lesion precursors had a shorter distance from the ostium (median, 35.1 [IQR, 23.6-48.4] mm vs 44.5 [IQR, 28.2-70.8] mm), more frequently localized to bifurcations (85 [73.3%] vs 168 [38.9%]), and had more tortuous vessel segments (5 [4.3%] vs 6 [1.4%]; all P

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS:Different methodologies to report whole-heart atherosclerotic plaque on coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) have been utilized. We examined which of the three commonly used plaque burden definitions was least affected by differences in body surface area (BSA) and sex. METHODS:The PARADIGM study includes symptomatic patients with suspected coronary atherosclerosis who underwent serial CCTA >2 years apart. Coronary lumen, vessel, and plaque were quantified from the coronary tree on a 0.5mm cross-sectional basis by a core-lab, and summed to per-patient. Three quantitative methods of plaque burden were employed: (1) total plaque volume (PV) in mm3, (2) percent atheroma volume (PAV) in % [which equaled: PV/vessel volume * 100%], and (3) normalized total atheroma volume (TAVnorm) in mm3 [which equaled: PV/vessel length * mean population vessel length]. Only data from the baseline CCTA were used. PV, PAV, and TAVnorm were compared between patients in the top quartile of BSA vs the remaining, and between sexes. Associations between vessel volume, BSA, and the three plaque burden methodologies were assessed. RESULTS:The study population comprised 1479 patients (age 60.7±9.3 years, 58.4% male) who underwent CCTA. A total of 17,649 coronary artery segments were evaluated with a median of 12 (IQR 11-13) segments per-patient (from a 16-segment coronary tree). Patients with a large BSA (top quartile), compared with the remaining patients, had a larger PV and TAVnorm, but similar PAV. The relation between larger BSA and larger absolute plaque volume (PV and TAVnorm) was mediated by the coronary vessel volume. Independent from the atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk (ASCVD) score, vessel volume correlated with PV (P&nbsp

Abstract: Objectives This study sought to determine if plaque structural stress (PSS) and other plaque stress parameters are increased in plaques that cause future major adverse cardiovascular event(s) (MACE) and if incorporating these parameters improves predictive capability of intravascular ultrasonography (IVUS). Background Less than 10% of coronary plaques identified as high-risk by intravascular imaging result in subsequent MACE. Thus, more specific measurements of plaque vulnerability are required for effective risk stratification. Methods Propensity score matching in the PROSPECT (Providing Regional Observations to Study Predictors of Events in the Coronary Tree) study plaque cohort resulted in 35 nonculprit lesions (NCL) associated with future MACE and 66 matched NCL that remained clinically silent. PSS was calculated by finite element analysis as the mechanical loading within the plaque structure in the periluminal region. Results PSS was increased in the minimal luminal area (MLA) regions of NCL MACE versus no MACE plaques for all plaques (PSS: 112.1 ± 5.5 kPa vs. 90.4 ± 3.3 kPa, respectively; p = 0.001) and virtual histology thin-cap fibroatheromas (VH-TCFAs) (PSS: 119.2 ± 6.6 kPa vs. 95.8 ± 5.0 kPa, respectively; p = 0.005). However, PSS was heterogeneous over short segments, and PSS heterogeneity index (HI) was markedly greater in NCL MACE than in no-MACE VH-TCFAs (HI: 0.43 ± 0.05 vs. 0.29 ± 0.03, respectively; p = 0.01). Inclusion of PSS in plaque assessment improved the identification of NCLs that led to MACE, including in VH-TCFAs (p = 0.03) and plaques with MLA ≤4 mm2 (p = 0.03). Incorporation of an HI further improved the ability of PSS to identify MACE NCLs in a variety of plaque subtypes including VH-TCFA (p = 0.001) and plaques with MLA ≤4 mm2 (p = 0.002). Conclusions PSS and variations in PSS are increased in the peri-MLA regions of plaques that lead to MACE. Moreover, longitudinal heterogeneity in PSS is markedly increased in MACE plaques, especially VH-TCFAs, potentially predisposing to plaque rupture. Incorporation of PSS and heterogeneity in PSS may improve the ability of IVUS to predict MACE., Central Illustration

Abstract: This study sought to determine whether indocyanine green (ICG)-enhanced near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging can illuminate high-risk histologic plaque features of human carotid atherosclerosis, and in coronary atheroma of living swine, using intravascular NIRF-optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging.New translatable imaging approaches are needed to identify high-risk biological signatures of atheroma. ICG is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved NIRF imaging agent that experimentally targets plaque macrophages and lipid in areas of enhanced endothelial permeability. However, it is unknown whether ICG can target atheroma in patients.Eight patients were enrolled in the BRIGHT-CEA (Indocyanine Green Fluorescence Uptake in Human Carotid Artery Plaque) trial. Five patients were injected intravenously with ICG 99 ± 25 min before clinically indicated carotid endarterectomy. Three saline-injected endarterectomy patients served as control subjects. Excised plaques underwent analysis by intravascular NIRF-OCT, reflectance imaging, microscopy, and histopathology. Next, following ICG intravenous injection, in vivo intracoronary NIRF-OCT and intravascular ultrasound imaged 3 atheroma-bearing coronary arteries of a diabetic, cholesterol-fed swine.ICG was well tolerated; no adverse clinical events occurred up to 30 days post-injection. Multimodal NIRF imaging including intravascular NIRF-OCT revealed that ICG accumulated in all endarterectomy specimens. Plaques from saline-injected control patients exhibited minimal NIRF signal. In the swine experiment, intracoronary NIRF-OCT identified ICG uptake in all intravascular ultrasound-identified plaques in vivo. On detailed microscopic evaluation, ICG localized to plaque areas exhibiting impaired endothelial integrity, including disrupted fibrous caps, and within areas of neovascularization. Within human plaque areas of endothelial abnormality, ICG was spatially related to localized zones of plaque macrophages and lipid, and, notably, intraplaque hemorrhage.This study demonstrates that ICG targets human plaques exhibiting endothelial abnormalities and provides new insights into its targeting mechanisms in clinical and experimental atheroma. Intracoronary NIRF-OCT of ICG may offer a novel, clinically translatable approach to image pathobiological aspects of coronary atherosclerosis.

Abstract: This study sought to determine whether low endothelial shear stress (ESS) adds independent prognostication for future major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in coronary lesions in patients with high-risk acute coronary syndrome (ACS) from the United States and Europe.Low ESS is a proinflammatory, proatherogenic stimulus associated with coronary plaque development, progression, and destabilization in human-like animal models and in humans. Previous natural history studies including baseline ESS characterization investigated low-risk patients.In the PROSPECT (Providing Regional Observations to Study Predictors of Events in the Coronary Tree) study, 697 patients with ACS underwent 3-vessel intracoronary imaging. Independent predictors of MACE attributable to untreated nonculprit (nc) coronary lesions during 3.4-year follow-up were large plaque burden (PB), small minimum lumen area (MLA), and thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) morphology. In this analysis, baseline ESS of nc lesions leading to new MACE (nc-MACE lesions) and randomly selected control nc lesions without MACE (nc-non-MACE lesions) were calculated. A propensity score for ESS was constructed for each lesion, and the relationship between ESS and subsequent nc-MACE was examined.A total of 145 lesions were analyzed in 97 patients: 23 nc-MACE lesions (13 TCFAs, 10 thick-cap fibroatheromas [ThCFAs]), and 122 nc-non-MACE lesions (63 TCFAs, 59 ThCFAs). Low local ESS (1.3 Pa) was strongly associated with subsequent nc-MACE compared with physiological/high ESS (≥1.3 Pa) (23 of 101 [22.8%]) versus (0 of 44 [0%]). In propensity-adjusted Cox regression, low ESS was strongly associated with MACE (hazard ratio: 4.34; 95% confidence interval: 1.89 to 10.00; p 0.001). Categorizing plaques by anatomic risk (high risk: ≥2 high-risk characteristics PB ≥70%, MLA ≤4 mmLocal low ESS provides incremental risk stratification of untreated coronary lesions in high-risk patients, beyond measures of PB, MLA, and morphology.

Abstract: This report focuses on the subset of 235 patients from the Asymptomatic Cardiac Ischemia Pilot (ACIP) study receiving randomly assigned medical therapy to treat angina and suppress ischemia detected on ambulatory electrocardiography: 121 patients received the sequence of atenolol and nifedipine, and 114 diltiazem and isosorbide dinitrate. After 12 weeks of therapy, the primary end point (absence of ambulatory electrocardiographic (ECG) ischemia and no clinical events) was reached in 47% of atenolol/nifedipine- versus 31% of diltiazem/isosorbide dinitrate-treated patients (adjusted p = 0.03). A trend to increased exercise time to ST depression was seen in the atenolol and nifedipine versus diltiazem and isosorbide dinitrate regimens (median treadmill duration 5.8 vs 4.8 minutes; p = 0.04). However, when adjusted for baseline imbalances in ambulatory ECG ischemia, the 2 medical combinations were similar in suppression of ambulatory ECG ischemia. In both medication regimens, an association between mean heart rate and ischemia on ambulatory electrocardiography after 12 weeks of treatment was observed so that patients on either regimen with a mean heart rate80 beats/min had ischemia detectable almost twice as often as those with a mean heart rate70 beats/min (p0.001).

Abstract: The etiology of acquired aortic stenosis (AS) has changed dramatically as socioeconomic and hygienic conditions have improved and as the general population lives to an older age. Rheumatic disease was responsible for most cases of AS until a few decades ago, whereas now most are due to calcific degenerative or bicuspid etiologies. There is a long latency period from the initial discovery of a murmur and first onset of symptoms. In studies representing clinical experience prior to the 1960s, the mean age at symptomatic presentation was 48 years, while in series representing experience up the 1980s, it was 61 years. The changing etiology of AS has Important implications for following patients with AS, and monitoring those who are discovered to have significant AS in the absence of symptoms. AS has become more a disease of the elderly, and it is the elderly patient with AS, especially those with calcific degenerative AS, who develop the most rapid and significant progression of their disease, present with symptoms of left ventricular (LV) failure, and are most likely to have critical outflow tract obstruction at the time of their presentation. Once symptoms develop, the outcome of patients with AS is quite poor: in early studies approximately 50% of such patients were dead at 5 years and 90% were dead at 10 years. Symptoms that represent LV failure, e.g., dyspnea, are associated with a worse survival (average survival 2 years) compared to symptoms that represent LV hypertrophy, e.g., angina or outflow obstruction, syncope (average survival 3 years). There is uniform agreement that once symptoms develop, patients with Significant AS should undergo valve replacement. Management of the asymptomatic patient with moderate-to-severe AS has been more problematic. Early studies suggested that sudden death could occur in even asymptomatic patients with severe AS, and recommended that prophylactic valve replacement be considered in this group. More recent studies, however, confirm that in the absence of symptoms, overall survival of patients with AS is similar to that predicted for age- and gender-matched control subjects. Although cardiac death occurs in approximately 2% to 4% of these patients, symptoms of AS have developed approximately 1 to 3 months before death in each documented case. The mortality associated with prophylactic aortic valve replacement is higher than the mortality associated with medical management of asymptomatic AS. In conclusion, aortic valve replacement should be deferred in patients with asymptomatic AS until the onset of symptoms. Patients with calcific degenerative AS and elderly patients with AS may have particularly rapid progression of AS and should have close follow-up. Since the interval between the onset of AS symptoms and cardiac death may be quite brief, all asymptomatic patients with significant AS should be followed closely for the onset of symptoms.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between ischemia detected on continuous electrocardiographic (cECG) recording and cardiovascular outcomes after acute coronary syndrome (ACS).The small size of prior studies evaluating cECG prevented full evaluation of the risk associated with ischemia across subpopulations and compared with other methods of risk stratification. Ranolazine, a new antianginal agent, reduces ischemic symptoms in patients with chronic angina and after ACS but the anti-ischemic effect, as detected by cECG, is not known.In all, 6,560 patients hospitalized with non-ST-segment elevation ACS were randomly assigned to ranolazine or placebo in the MERLIN-TIMI 36 (Metabolic Efficiency With Ranolazine for Less Ischemia in Non-ST-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome-Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction 36) trial. The cECG was performed for 7 days after randomization. Outcomes were followed for a median of 348 days. Clinical events that occurred during cECG recording were excluded from analysis.A total of 6,355 (97%) patients had cECG recordings evaluable for ischemia analysis. Patients withor=1 episode of ischemia on cECG (n = 1,271, 20%) were at increased risk of cardiovascular death (7.7% vs. 2.7%, p0.001), MI (9.4% vs. 5.0%, p0.001), and recurrent ischemia (17.5% vs. 12.3%, p0.001). The relationship with cardiovascular death was independent of baseline characteristics or elevated biomarkers (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.46, p0.001). Ischemia on cECG was associated with significantly worse outcomes in several subgroups. Ranolazine did not reduce the rate of ischemia detected on cECG (19.9% vs. 21.0%, hazard ratio: 0.93, p = 0.21).In more than 6,300 patients with ACS, ischemia detected on cECG occurred frequently and was strongly and independently associated with poor cardiovascular outcomes, including cardiovascular death. Continuous ECG monitoring to detect ischemia after ACS may help to identify patients at increased risk.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to determine if ranolazine improves angina in stable coronary patients with persisting symptoms despite maximum recommended dose of amlodipine.Ranolazine is a unique antianginal agent that has been effective in stable angina, but it has not been studied in the setting of maximum recommended doses of conventional antianginal agents.Stable patients with coronary disease andor =3 anginal attacks per week despite maximum recommended dosage of amlodipine (10 mg/day) were randomized to 1,000 mg ranolazine or placebo twice a day for 6 weeks. Primary end point was the frequency of angina episodes per week during the double-blind treatment phase. Efficacy was also assessed by nitroglycerin consumption per week and the Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ). Adjustment for multiple testing of secondary end points used a hierarchic closed testing procedure. Efficacy was assessed in subgroups based on baseline angina frequency, concomitant long-acting nitrate use, gender, and age. Safety was assessed by adverse events and electrocardiogram evaluations.A total of 565 patients were randomized: 281 patients to ranolazine and 284 patients to placebo. Baseline characteristics were similar between treatment groups. At baseline, angina frequency averaged 5.63 +/- 0.18 episodes/week, and nitroglycerin consumption averaged 4.72 +/- 0.21 tablets/week. Compared with placebo, ranolazine significantly reduced frequency of angina episodes (2.88 +/- 0.19 on ranolazine vs. 3.31 +/- 0.22 on placebo; p = 0.028) and nitroglycerin consumption (2.03 +/- 0.20 on ranolazine vs. 2.68 +/- 0.22; p = 0.014), with treatment effect that appeared consistent across subgroups. The median angina weekly episode rate at baseline was 4.5 per week. Subgroup analysis showed statistically significant reductions of angina frequency, nitroglycerin use, and SAQ angina frequency for patients with a baseline frequency4.5 per week but only of angina frequency for those with baseline frequencyor =4.5 per week. Patients with more frequent angina appeared to have a more pronounced treatment effect. No hemodynamic changes were observed. Ranolazine was well tolerated.Ranolazine significantly reduced frequency of angina and nitroglycerin consumption compared with placebo and was well tolerated.

Abstract: The goal of this study was to evaluate glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibition with eptifibatide when administered with indirect thrombin inhibition as compared with monotherapy with direct thrombin inhibition with bivalirudin among patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes (ACS).The optimal combination of antiplatelet and antithrombin regimens that maximizes efficacy and minimizes bleeding among patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unclear.A total of 857 patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS were assigned randomly to eptifibatide + reduced dose unfractionated heparin (n = 298), eptifibatide + reduced-dose enoxaparin (n = 275), or bivalirudin monotherapy (n = 284).Among angiographically evaluable patients (n = 754), the primary end point of post-PCI coronary flow reserve was significantly greater with bivalirudin (1.43 vs. 1.33 for pooled eptifibatide arms, p = 0.036). Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) myocardial perfusion grade more often was normal with eptifibatide treatment compared with bivalirudin (57.9% vs. 50.9%, p = 0.048). The duration of ischemia on continuous Holter monitoring after PCI was significantly longer among patients treated with bivalirudin (169 vs. 36 min, p = 0.013). There was no excess of TIMI major bleeding among patients treated with eptifibatide compared with bivalirudin (0.7%, n = 4 vs. 0%, p = NS), but TIMI minor bleeding was increased (2.5% vs. 0.4%, p = 0.027) as was transfusion (4.4% to 0.4%, p0.001).Among moderate- to high-risk patients with ACS undergoing PCI, coronary flow reserve was greater with bivalirudin than eptifibatide. Eptifibatide improved myocardial perfusion and reduced the duration of post-PCI ischemia but was associated with higher minor bleeding and transfusion rates. Ischemic events and biomarkers for myonecrosis, inflammation, and thrombin generation did not differ between agents.

Abstract: background Knowledge of the physiological effects of extended (24 hours or more) work shifts in postgraduate medical training is limited. We aimed to quantify work hours, sleep, and attentional failures among first-year residents (postgraduate year 1) during a traditional rotation schedule that included extended work shifts and during an intervention schedule that limited scheduled work hours to 16 or fewer consecutive hours. methods Twenty interns were studied during two three-week rotations in intensive care units, each during both the traditional and the intervention schedule. Subjects completed daily sleep logs that were validated with regular weekly episodes (72 to 96 hours) of continuous polysomnography (r=0.94) and work logs that were validated by means of direct observation by study staff (r=0.98). results Seventeen of 20 interns worked more than 80 hours per week during the traditional schedule (mean, 84.9; range, 74.2 to 92.1). All interns worked less than 80 hours per week during the intervention schedule (mean, 65.4; range, 57.6 to 76.3). On average, interns worked 19.5 hours per week less (P

28. Optimizing ambulatory ECG monitoring of T-wave alternans for arrhythmia risk assessment

Author: Richard L, Verrier, Bruce D, Nearing, and Peter H, Stone
Subjects: Practice Guidelines as Topic, Electrocardiography, Ambulatory, Humans, Arrhythmias, Cardiac, Risk Assessment
Abstract: Considerable scientific data support the potential value of T-wave alternans (TWA) as an index of vulnerability to ventricular fibrillation. This chapter summarizes our state of knowledge regarding the use of routine ambulatory ECGs to evaluate TWA and discusses recent methodologic approaches designed to optimize AECG-based TWA analysis for arrhythmia risk stratification. Newer methods, including the nonspectral technique of Modified Moving Average analysis, appear promising in detecting TWA during the changing conditions associated with daily activities. The Modified Moving Average approach does not require specialized electrodes and is not encumbered by the need to achieve target heart rates, as is the case for conventional spectral-based methods. Guidelines are provided for evaluating latent cardiac electrical instability using AECG-based TWA testing. These recent developments make possible the TWA analysis of ambulatory ECGs not only in prospective trials but also in vast stores of archival data.

Abstract: Improvements in solid-state digital technology have enhanced transtelephonic transmission of electrocardiography (ECG) data and increased the accuracy of software-based analysis systems. These advances, in addition to better signal quality and greater computer arrhythmia interpretation capabilities, have opened new potential uses for ambulatory electrocardiography (AECG). Traditional uses of AECG for arrhythmia detection have expanded as the result of increased use of multichannel and telemetered signals. The clinical application of arrhythmia monitoring to assess drug and device efficacy has been further defined by new studies. The analysis of transient ST-segment deviation remains controversial, but considerably more data are now available, especially about the prognostic value of detecting asymptomatic ischemia. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis has shown promise for predicting mortality rates in cardiac patients at high risk. Despite these advances, a true automated analysis system has not been perfected and technician/physician participation is still essential. The widespread availability and low cost of personal computers and workstations has allowed for the development of extremely sophisticated and automated signal processing algorithms. Current AECG equipment provides for the detection and analysis of arrhythmias and ST-segment deviation as well as more sophisticated analyses of R-R intervals, QRS-T morphology including late potentials, Q-T dispersion, and T-wave alternans. There are 2 categories of AECG recorders: continuous recorders, typically used for 24 to 48 hours to investigate symptoms and ECG events that are likely to occur within that time frame, and intermittent recorders, which may be used for long periods of time (weeks to months) to provide briefer, intermittent recordings for investigating events that occur infrequently. ### A. Continuous Recorders Rapidly evolving technologies now allow for direct recording of the ECG signal in a digital format using solid-state recording devices. The direct digital recording avoids all of the biases introduced by the mechanical features of tape recording devices and the problems associated with …

Abstract: The aim of this study was to characterize patients with and without prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) among a prospectively identified cohort of patients presenting with unstable angina or non-Q-wave myocardial infarction. Patients in the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction phase III Registry Prospective Study presented within 96 hours of an episode of unstable angina or non-Q-wave acute myocardial infarction. Of 2,048 patients, 336 (16.4%) had prior CABG. Compared with those without prior CABG, patients were the same age, but were more likely to be men, white, diabetic, have a history of angina or myocardial infarction, to have received anti-ischemic medications in the prior week, and to receive intravenous heparin or nitroglycerin, or both, during hospitalization. They were equally likely to undergo coronary angioplasty or CABG. Death or nonfatal myocardial infarction occurred by day 10 in 4.5% of patients with prior CABG and 2.8% of patients without prior CABG (p = 0.11); and by day 42 in 7.7% and 5.1%, respectively (p = 0.03). The composite of death, myocardial infarction, or recurrent ischemia at 1 year was more common among patients with prior CABG (39.3% vs 30.2%, p = 0.002). By multiple logistic regression, prior CABG was not independently associated with the occurrence of death or myocardial infarction, or the composite of death, myocardial infarction, or recurrent ischemia either at 6 weeks or at 1 year. The likelihood of recurrent ischemic events is greater among patients with than without prior CABG, but is not likely explained by differences in baseline or treatment characteristics which reflect the degree of underlying cardiac disease.

Abstract: A submaximal treadmill exercise test performed before hospital discharge after an uncomplicated myocardial infarction is often utilized to estimate prognosis and guide management, but there is little experience with a maximalexercise test performed 6 months after infarction to identify prognosis later in the convalescent period. The performance characteristics during an exercise test 6 months after myocardial infarction were related to the development of death, recurrent nonfatal myocardial infarction and coronary artery bypass surgery in the subsequent 12 months (that is, 6 to 18 months after infarction) in 473 patients. Mortality was significantly greater in patients who exhibited any of the following: inability to perform the exercise test because of cardiac limitations, the development of ST segment elevation of 1 mm or greater during the exercise test, an inadequate blood pressure response during exercise, the development of any ventricular premature depolarizations during exercise or the recovery period and inability to exercise beyond stage I of the modified Bruce protocol. By utilizing a combination of four high risk prognostic features from the exercise test, it was possible to stratify patients in ternis of risk of mortality, from 1% if none of these features were present to 17% if three or four were present. Recurrent nonfatal myocardial infarction was predicted by an inability to perform the exercise test because of cardiac limitations, but not by any characteristics of exercise test performance. Coronary artery bypass surgery was associated with the development of ST segment depression of 1 mm or greater during the exercise test. Although clinical evidence of angina and heart failure 6 months after infarction was predictive of subsequent mortality among all survivors, among the low risk group without severely limiting cardiac disease, the exercise test provided unique prognostic information not available from clinical assessment alone. Therefore, a maximal exercise test performed 6 months after myocardial infarction is a valuable, noninvasive tool to evaluate prognosis. It provides information that is independent of and additive to clinical evaluation performed at the same time.

Abstract: The exercise treadmill test (ETT) performance of 60 patients with angiographically documented left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease (LMD) was analyzed to determine the spectrum of ETT response in this distinct subset of patients with coronary disease (CAD). The location and extent of CAD was also determined to assess its effect on exercise response in patients having LMD. The ST segment response indicated ischemia in 46 patients (77%), and only one patient (2%) achieved a maximum predicted heart rate (HR) with a negative ST segment response. During ETT exertional hypotension developed in six patients (10%), frequent ventricular ectopic beats occurred in 19 patients (32%), and ST segment elevation occurred in five patients (8%). A "markedly positive" ETT response, defined as either ≥ 2.0 mm ischemic ST segment depression, a positive ST segment response in stage I of the Bruce protocol, termination of the exercise test in stage I or II, or the development of exertional hypotension was observed in 53 patients (88%). A "benign" treadmill test response, defined as either a negative test at the maximum predicted HR or the ability to exercise at least to stage IV, was observed in only four patients (7%). Patterns of coronary anatomy were divided into group I (nine patients), where only portions of the myocardium were in jeopardy of ischemia (patients with an obstruction in the LMCA but with a normal dominant right coronary artery [RCA]); and group II (51 patients), where the entire myocardium was in jeopardy (patients with LMD and either a dominant left coronary artery or a dominant RCA which was obstructed). There was a significantly higher prevalence in group II vs group I of exercise-induced frequent ventricular ectopic beats (19 patients vs 0 patient), termination of the treadmill test in stage I (28 patients vs 0 patients), and marked ischemic ST segment depression ≥ 2.0 mm (30 patients vs 2 patients), all p
