Context: No-flow phenomenon during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a complex and multifactorial phenomenon with often devastating complications during PCI, especially in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) settings. There is paucity of data on serological predictors of the same. Materials and Methods: This was an open-label, all-comers, observational, prospective study done on 175 patients covering the whole spectrum of coronary artery disease, undergoing PCI at the center. On admission detailed clinical history , general and systemic examination and laboratory investigations in form of hemoglobin, blood urea, serum creatinine, serum sodium, serum potassium, random blood sugar, electrocardiogram(ECG) and tropinin T were also done. Post procedure creatinine protein kinase MB (CPK MB) was done after 24 hrs, and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow was assessed during PCI in all patients by the operating interventional cardiologist.

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.

In this study 258 patients from the Department of Cardiology in Chhatrapati Shahuji Maharaj Medical University, Lucknow were selected to participate. All had been diagnosed with coronary artery disease. They were randomly divided into 2 groups, the yoga group and the non-yoga group, 129 in each group; 208 completed the study protocol. The yogic intervention consisted of 35-40 min/day, 5 days a week over a period of 18 months in the Department of Physiology. Autonomic function testing was done in both the groups at zero time and after 18 months. We observed a statistically significant reduction in body mass index, waist circumference, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and heart rate (P < 0.05), i.e., a significant positive effect was observed when yoga therapy was used as an adjunct in patients with coronary artery disease.

The interest in therapeutic drug monitoring has increased over the last few years. Inter- and intra-patient variability in pharmacokinetics, plasma concentration related toxicity and success of therapy have stressed the need of frequent therapeutic drug monitoring of the drugs. A sensitive, selective and rapid liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the simultaneous quantification of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), salicylic acid, clopidogrel and carboxylic acid metabolite of clopidogrel in human plasma. The chromatographic separations were achieved on Waters Symmetry Shield(TM) C18 column (150 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) using 3.5 mm ammonium acetate (pH 3.5)-acetonitrile (10:90, v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.75 mL/min. The present method was successfully applied for therapeutic drug monitoring of aspirin and clopidogrel in 67 patients with coronary artery disease.

Sialic acid, the acylated derivatives of 9-carbon sugar neuraminic acid, present as terminal component of oligosaccharide chains of many glycoproteins and glycolipids, has been recognized to be involved in the regulation of a great variety of biological phenomena. Studies have shown that serum sialic acid predicts both coronary heart disease and stroke mortality and reflects the existence or activity of an atherosclerotic process. Most of the studies have shown an elevation in serum sialic acid concentration in coronary heart disease and a positive correlation between the raised serum sialic acid and the severity of the coronary lesions is observed. However, a few contradictory reports are also available. Racial differences in serum sialic acid have also been reported and correlated with international differences in the prevalence of atherosclerosis. Reduced sialic acid content of platelets, erythrocytes and lipoproteins may play important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Elucidation of the mechanism of alternation in sialic acid concentration may throw more light on its potential clinical utility. Hence more studies are needed to designates sialic acid as a cardiovascular risk factor/marker.

Serum lipids and lipoproteins were estimated in 29 patients with acute myocardial infarction during acute phase (day 1,2,3), predischarge and after three months. Serum total lipids, total cholesterol (TC) and LDL-cholesterol (LDLc) showed no significant change during the hospital stay and three months followup. HDL-cholesterol (HDLc), however, started falling from day 2 onwards with statistically significant reduction at pre-discharge and remained so at 3 months. The ratios of TC/HDLc and LDLc/HDLc showed significant increase on predischarge day as compared to day 1. Serum triglycerides also showed an increasing trend after myocardial infarction with a significant increase on day 3 and predischarge as compared to day 1. it is concluded that the optimum time for assessment of serum lipid profile in patients with myocardial infarction seems to be within 24 hours of the acute episode.

Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring provides a more reliable assessment of actual BP than office BP and is a more sensitive risk predictor of clinical cardiovascular outcomes. Recent international guidelines for hypertension have emphasised the usefulness of ambulatory BP for diagnosis and management of hypertension. We used ambulatory blood pressure monitoring to monitor the effect of the pharmacological treatment in patients with stage 1 or 2 hypertension. This was a multicentric randomised controlled trial having 360 subjects with 180 in each treatment arm. The duration of study was 6 months. The patients were randomly selected to receive atenolol or losartan as initial therapy. The dose of atenolol or losartan was 50 mg once daily at 8 am in the morning. Ambulatory BP assessment was done in a subgroup of subjects using Schiller BR-102 plus machine. One hundred and thirty patients were recruited for the study using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. There were 66 patients in atenolol arm and 64 patients in the losartan arm. A significant white coat hypertension was noticed in both the arms. Out of 130 subjects in the ambulatory group, 41.53% had a white coat hypertension. Statistically significant reduction of office BP was observed with both atenolol and losartan; however, no significant difference in efficacy of the two drugs was found in reducing office BP. However, when using ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, the reduction with either drug was not significant. The dipper status was better in the atenolol group than the losartan group. Neither of the drugs prevent morning surge of BP when administered once daily in the morning. There was high prevalence of white coat hypertension in patients with stage 1 and stage 2 hypertension. There was similar reduction of systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure by the 2 study drugs. Atenolol scores over losartan in converting non-dipper to dipper but its' impact on clinical outcome is not known. Morning surge of BP was unaffected by either of the study drugs.

Data about oxidative stress in percutaneous coronary interventions are still controversial. We assessed the oxidative stress and enzymatic antioxidants activities in ACS patients going for PCI, whether complicated or uncomplicated. The patients were divided into three groups: control, uncomplicated PCI and complicated PCI. Estimation of free radical markers e.g. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and antioxidants assay like catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione Peroxidase (GPx) and glutathione reductase (GR) were done. The mean level of all antioxidants were comparatively low while the level of free radical marker (MDA) was comparatively high than the respective control in both patients groups before PCI. After PCI, the level of all antioxidant enzymes in both groups of patients decreased further while the level of MDA increased as compared to respective pre PCI levels (p

Biochemical markers are useful for the prediction of future cardiovascular events in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The independent as well as the combined prognostic value of elevated troponin-T, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro-BNP) on the Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) risk score and on the short-term prognosis were evaluated in a cohort of ACS patients.In an unselected, heterogeneous group of 80 patients with ACS (i.e., unstable angina [USA] or non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction [NSTEMI]), the levels of troponin-T, hs-CRP, and NT-pro-BNP were analyzed. The correlation between elevation of different biomarkers with TIMI risk score and their impact on 30-day major adverse cardiac events was sought. The levels of hs-CRP were significantly higher in patients who had angina as their predominant complaint (3.67 mg/dl vs. 1.67 mg/dl: p0.01), while levels of NT-pro-BNP was higher in those patients who had any element of heart failure at presentation (2616.39 pg/ml vs. 1068.3 pg/ml; p0.01). Troponin-T was highest in patients who had an element of both heart failure and angina at presentation (p0.01). The TIMI risk score expectedly had a positive and strong correlation with elevated troponin-T, but had no correlation with elevation of hs-CRP and NT-pro-BNP in isolation. However, when any two biomarkers were elevated, the patients were in the intermediate risk group as per TIMI risk score irrespective of troponin-T-elevation. When all the three biomarkers were elevated, the risk equaled the high-risk category of TIMI risk score. Elevated hs-CRP (3.40 mg/dl vs. 1.38 mg/dl; p0.001) and troponin-T (2.37 ng/ml vs. 1.23 ng/ml; p0.001) at baseline correlated independently with the occurrence of re-ischemia, while elevated NT-pro-BNP alone correlated significantly with the development of heart failure within 30 days of follow-up (4247.76 pg/ml vs. 1210.86 pg/ml; p0.01). The highest risk of death from any cardiovascular cause within 30 days of follow-up was significantly higher when all the three biomarkers were elevated.The use of NT-pro-BNP, hs-CRP, and troponin-T in combination appears to add critical prognostic insight to the assessment of patients with ACS.

Inflammation has been proposed as one of the factors responsible for the development of coronary artery disease (CAD) and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs CRP) at present is the strongest marker of inflammation. We did a study to assess the correlation of hs-CRP with socio-economic status (SES) in patients of CAD presenting as acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Baseline hs-CRP of 490 patients of ACS was estimated by turbidimetric immunoassay. Patients were stratified by levels of hs-CRP into low (1 mg/L); intermediate (1-3 mg/L) or high (3 mg/L) groups and in tertiles of 0-0.39 mg/L, 0.4-1.1 mg/L and1.1 mg/L, respectively. Classification of patient into upper (21.4%), middle (45.37 percent) and lower (33.3%) SES was based on Kuppuswami Index which includes education, income and profession. Presence or absence of traditional risk factors for CAD diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and smoking was recorded in each patient.Mean levels of hs-CRP in lower, middle and upper SES were 2.3 +/- 2.1 mg/L, 0.8 +/- 1.7 mg/L and 1.2 +/- 1.5 mg/L, respectively. hs-CRP levels were significantly higher in low SES compared with both upper SES (p = 0.033) and middle SES (p = 0.001). Prevalence of more than one traditional CAD risk factors was seen in 13.5%, 37.5% and 67.67 percent; in patient of lower, middle and upper SES. It was observed that multiple risk factors had a linear correlation with increasing SES. Of the four traditional risk factors of CAD, smoking was the only factor which was significantly higher in lower SES (73%) as compared to middle (51.67 percent;) and upper (39.4%) SES. We found that 62.3%, 20.8% and 26.5% patients of low, middle and upper SES had hs-CRP values in the highest tertile. Median value of the Framingham risk score in low, middle and upper SES as 11, 14 and 18, respectively. We observed that at each category of Framingham risk, low SES had higher hs-CRP.We conclude from our study that patient of lower SES have significantly higher levels of hs-CRP despite the fact that they have lesser traditional risk factors and lower Framingham risk. These findings add credit to our belief that inflammation may be an important link in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and its complications especially in patients of low SES who do not have traditional risk factors.

Indians are more prone to premature coronary artery disease (CAD). The importance of homocysteine as a risk factor for CAD in Indian patients needs to be recognized. The aim of this study was to note the independent association of this novel risk factor with traditional ones in young CAD patients.This study included 51 patients,45 years of age, with proven CAD. They were further divided into two subgroups based on their lipid profile. Group A (n = 30) hyperlipidemic CAD patients and Group B (n = 21) normolipidemic CAD patients. They were compared with 15 age and sex matched healthy controls. Plasma homocysteine was assayed using high pressure liquid chromatography, fasting lipid profile and other risk factors were compared.The mean level of homocysteine in patient group was 27.8 +/- 13.11 nmol/ml. In subgroup A it was 28.86 +/- 13.02 while in subgroup B it was 26.46 +/- 13.44. In the patient group (n = 51), 37 (72.55%) had homocysteine levels greater than 18 nmol/ml. In the control group mean homocysteine was 13.22 nmol/ml +/- 7.36 and only 4 (26.77%) had homocysteine levels greater than the cut-off.Thus in spite of some baseline variations, plasma homocysteine emerged as a significant (p = 0.0009, OR 6.05) independent risk factor for young CAD patients and was not altered by the baseline lipid profile of the patient. Therefore it should be evaluated in all young patients of CAD in the absence of traditional risk factors.

Infection following permanent pacemaker implantation is a dreaded complication. Antibiotic prophylaxis for 1-10 days at the time of implant has been used in the past but there is no consensus regarding its duration. We carried out a prospective, randomized study of two durations of antibiotic prophylaxis to determine which one was more effective.One hundred and seventy-eight patients undergoing permanent pacemaker implantation for the first time were randomized to receive short duration (group A, n = 8 8) or longer duration (group B, n = 90) antibiotic prophylaxis for 2 days and 7 days, respectively. Patients in both groups received cloxacillin 2 g 2 hours prior to the procedure followed by ampicillin and cloxacillin (50 mg/kg/day in 4 divided doses) and gentamicin (3 mg/kg/day in 2 divided doses) for the respective duration. Patients were followed up for 1-17.3 months (9.3 +/- 1.8 months) in group A and 1-16.5 months (8.9 +/- 2 months) in group B. One patient in group B had an infection at the pacemaker site and two patients in each group had to undergo reimplantation due to pus in the pocket. There was no significant difference in the primary end-point in both groups.A short course (48 hours) of antibiotic prophylaxis following permanent pacemaker implantation is as effective as a longer course (7 days).

Studies among emigrant Indians have stressed the role of a powerful genetic factor, lipoprotein (a), in the causation of premature coronary artery disease. This study was carried out to assess lipoprotein (a) and lipid levels in 50 consecutive young north Indian patients (age less than 45 years, mean age 39+/-3.7 years) with myocardial infarction, their first-degree relatives (n=125, mean age 36+/-16 years), and age- and sex-matched controls (n=50, mean age 34+/-6.9 years).Blood samples for lipid estimation were taken within 24 hours of myocardial infarction and after overnight fasting for twelve hours. Lipoprotein (a) levels were estimated by the ELISA technique using preformed antibodies while lipid levels were estimated by kits using the colorimetric method. All were male patients. The mean lipoprotein (a) level was 22.28+5.4 mg/dl in patients, 13.88+5.19 mg/dl in their first-degree relatives and 9.28+22.59 mg/dl in controls. In addition, it was significantly higher in young patients with myocardial infarction and their relatives as compared to controls (p0.001 for patients v. controls and p0.05 for relatives v. controls). There was no significant difference in the levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol among the three groups. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol was significantly lower in young patients with myocardial infarction (30.16+/-9.45 mg/dl) and their first-degree relatives (33.28+/-8.45 mg/dl) as compared to controls (46.8+/-8.04 mg/dl) (p0.001 for patients v. controls and p0.01 for relatives v. controls). Triglyceride levels were significantly higher in patients as compared to controls (202+/-76 mg/dl v. 149 + 82.99 mg/dl, p0.05). Smoking was more prevalent in young patients with myocardial infarction as compared to controls (44% v. 36%, p0.05).Smoking, high lipoprotein (a) and triglyceride levels and low high-density lipoprotein levels may be important risk factors for coronary artery disease in the younger population; also, there is familial clustering of high lipoprotein (a) levels in first-degree relatives of young patients with myocardial infarction.

Left ventricular pacing is increasingly being used as a part of biventricular pacing in congestive heart failure but data on safety, feasibility, reliability and lead maturation are sparse.Seventeen patients (13 males and 4 females) with persistent symptomatic degenerative complete heart block underwent temporary left ventricular pacing by a left subclavian puncture through the coronary sinus to its tributaries using a unipolar permanent pacing lead connected to an external pulse generator. The left ventricular pacing was done for two weeks. Permanent right ventricular apical pacing was also done at the same time through a right cephalic vein cut-down or subclavian puncture and the pacing rate was kept below that of the initial left ventricular pacing rate. Pacing parameters of the left and right ventricles were assessed at the time of implantation and at two weeks. Out of 17 patients, left ventricular pacing was successful in 11 (67.7%) patients. The time taken for the total procedure was 56+/-18.1 min. Lead displacement was noted in one patient without loss of pacing. At the time of implant and after two weeks, left ventricular pacing threshold, impedance, R wave height and slew rate were not different as compared to right ventricular pacing. Holter recording for 24 hours revealed regular left ventricular pacing at the end of two weeks in all patients.The present study shows that left ventricular pacing through coronary sinus tributaries is feasible and reliable. Acute and subacute maturation of left ventricular pacing are similar to right ventricular apical pacing.

The present study was undertaken to assess the impact of megadose heparin bolus on angiographic patency of infarct-related artery in patients of acute myocardial infarction presenting between 7-12 hours and to compare it with streptokinase. Forty-seven patients (27 males, mean age 58.1 +/- 9.6 years) of acute myocardial infarction between 7-12 hours of onset of chest pain were randomised to receive either megadose heparin bolus (300 IU/kg body weight, group 1, n = 24; or streptokinase 1.5 million units over one hour, group 2, n = 23). Parameters noted were: relief of pain at 90 minutes, 50 percent or more resolution of ST segment at 90 minutes, TIMI grade flow and left ventricular ejection fraction at discharge. Mean age (59.0 +/- 12.9 years in group 1; 57.2 +/- 8.1 years in group 2), mean time to drug (7.5 +/- 1.3 hours in group 1; 7.8 +/- 1.6 hours in group 2), site of anterior wall infarction (12 in group 1, 10 in group 2), relief of pain at 90 minutes (15 in group 1, 14 in group 2) and more than 50 percent resolution of ST segment elevation at 90 minutes (12 patients in each group) were similar. On coronary angiography performed in 42 patients (21 in each group) at a mean interval of 7.2 +/- 1.3 days after acute myocardial infarction, TIMI grade 3 flow was seen in 7 (33.3%) patients in each group and TIMI grade 2/3 flow was also similar in both the groups (p = NS). No major bleed occurred in either group. We conclude that heparin given as a megadose bolus produces similar TIMI 3 flow in infarct-related artery as compared to streptokinase in acute myocardial infarction patients presenting between 7-12 hours.

Bolus followed by rapid infusion of tissue plasminogen activator results in higher grade of TIMI flow in infarct-related artery as compared to slow infusion. In the present study, an accelerated regimen of streptokinase given over 15 minutes was compared with conventional infusion over one hour in 47 patients presenting within 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction. Forty-seven patients (44 males, 3 females; mean age 54.0 +/- 1.1 years) were randomly allocated to receive 1.5 million units of streptokinase either over 15 minutes (group 1, n = 24) or over one hour (group 2, n = 23) at a mean interval of 5.4 +/- 3.6 hours after onset of symptoms. All the patients received aspirin and intravenous heparin (1000 U/hr) for 96 hours after thrombolysis. Coronary angiography was performed in 43 patients (22 in group 1, 21 in group 2) prior to discharge from the hospital (mean 7 +/- 2.1 days after acute myocardial infarction) and patency of the infarct-related artery and grade of TIMI flow were determined. Infarct-related artery was patent (TIMI 2/3 flow) in 19 (86.4%) patients in group 1 as compared to 12 (57.1%) in group 2 (p0.05). TIMI grade 3 flow in the infarct-related artery was present in 13 (59.1%) in group 1 as compared to 7 (33.3%) in group 2 (p = 0.1). There was no significant difference between group 1 and 2 in time of presentation (mean 5.3 +/- 3.9 hrs vs 5.5 +/- 3.2 hrs), time to needle in hospital (25.6 +/- 11.2 min vs 26.3 +/- 6.2 min), site of infarct (anterior myocardial infarction 12 in group 1 vs 11 in group 2), relief of pain at 90 min (13 vs 12), more than 50 percent reduction of ST elevation at 90 minutes (17 vs 12) and left ventricular ejection fraction (48.8 +/- 9.1% vs 49.8 +/- 16.0%), respectively. Streptokinase was well tolerated in both the groups, although hypotension was more common with the accelerated regimen (5 in group 1 vs 3 in group 2; p = NS). Thus, 'accelerated' streptokinase given over 15 minutes in patients presenting within 12 hours of acute myocardial infarction is well tolerated and results in higher grades of TIMI flow in the infarct-related artery as compared to the "conventional" one-hour infusion regimen.

Patients of chronic exudative pericardial effusion are frequently treated with antitubercular treatment on presumptive grounds in developing countries, in a hope to prevent constrictive pericarditis. To assess the impact of antitubercular treatment on development of constrictive pericarditis in chronic large exudative pericarditis effusion of undetermined etiology, 25 patients above 12 years of age, with large pericarditis effusion beyond 12 weeks duration, were randomized in a prospective 2:1 fashion, to receive either 3-drug antitubercular treatment (group A) or placebo (group B) for six months. End points studied were, development of pericardial thickness as diagnosed by CT scan and constrictive pericarditis as diagnosed by cardiac catheterization. Twenty-one patients (14 in group A and 7 in group B) completed the study protocol. In all, five (23.8%) patients developed constrictive pericarditis/pericardial thickening. Histopathological examination of pericardiectomy specimens in over five patients were negative for tubercular pathology. Pericardial effusion resolved completely in another 10 (47.8%) patients. There was no significant difference in both the groups in development of constrictive pericarditis/pericardial thickening (group A: n = 3, 21.4% and group B: n = 2, 29.6%, p = NS). On multivariate analysis, development of constrictive pericarditis/pericardial thickening was associated with recurrent tamponade (p = 0.01), presence of tamponade at admission (p = 0.07) and haemorrhagic pericardial effusion (p = 0.08). Thus, antitubercular treatment does not prevent the development of constrictive pericarditis in patients of large chronic pericardial effusion of undetermined etiology.

Eighteen patients of 'Q' wave acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (age 50 +/- 6.2 years), underwent dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) before hospital discharge (7.2 +/- 1.3 days after AMI) to find out the correlation between response of infarct zone to dobutamine infusion and TIMI grade flow in infarct related artery (IRA). The aim of study was to test the hypothesis that infarct zone which shows improvement in contractility after dobutamine infusion has viable myocardial tissue and would have good flow (TIMI II or III) in IRA. Echocardiographically, improvement in contractility in the centre of infarct zone by at least 1 grade (on a scale of 4) was termed as positive response on DSE. The mean dose of dobutamine was 19.4 micrograms/kg/min. Ten patients had positive response on DSE; 8 of them had good antegrade flow in IRA. Eight patients had no improvement in contractility of infarct zone on DSE; 6 of them had poor flow in IRA. Clinical markers of reperfusion (relief of chest pain, early ST settlement, peak CPK-MB levels), age of patient, site of AMI, time to thrombolysis, resting left ventricular ejection fraction, wall motion score of the infarct zone and presence of collaterals were not significantly different in patients with good or poor flow in IRA. Thus, improvement in contractility of infarct zone after dobutamine infusion can predict good flow (TIMI II or III) in IRA with 80 percent sensitivity, 75 percent specificity, 80 percent diagnostic accuracy, 80 percent positive predictive value and 75 percent negative predictive value.

Presence of multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) identifies a high risk subgroup after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Dobutamine stress echocardiography (DSE) has recently emerged as a promising non invasive test to detect the presence and extent of coronary artery disease. Forty six consecutive patients (38 males, 8 females; mean age 48.6 +/- 10.4 years) of Q-wave acute myocardial infarction were subjected to submaximal treadmill test (TMT) and dobutamine stress echocardiography to see their ability to predict multivessel coronary artery disease as detected by coronary angiography before hospital discharge. Dobutamine infusion was started at 5 micrograms/kg/min to a maximum of 40 micrograms/kg/min, to achieve 70 percent of the age predicted heart rate. Appearance of new regional wall motion abnormality was interpreted as positive DSE for MVD. Mean peak infusion dose of dobutamine used in the study was 28.56 +/- 5.67 micrograms/kg/min. In none of the patients, the test had to be terminated due to side effects. The sensitivity and specificity of DSE to predict MVD was 80 percent and 93.7 percent, respectively as compared to 45 percent and 86 percent for submaximal TMT. Thus, DSE in patients of AMI before hospital discharge is a safe procedure with fairly accurate prediction of multivessel coronary artery disease.

We conducted a placebo controlled randomised clinical trial to evaluate the effects of 6 months therapy with metoprolol on resting and exercise haemodynamics in 31 patients with isolated mitral stenosis in sinus rhythm. Twenty six of them (placebo n = 13, metoprolol n = 13) completed the study protocol. Their mean age was 23.1 +/- 7.9 years and the mean mitral valve area was 0.93 +/- 0.25 cm2. The dose of metoprolol ranged between 50-100 mg per day. The primary outcome variables for the study were the resting and exercise mean pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) and cardiac index (CI) and the secondary outcome variables consisted of resting and exercise heart rate, mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), mean pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and clinical improvement on visual analog scale. These outcome variables were assessed blindly. The resting and exercise mean PCWP (mmHg) increased by 9.1 +/- 3.1 and 16.4 +/- 6.4 on placebo and 2.5 +/- 2.1 and -4.6 +/- 2.3 on metoprolol after 6 months therapy. These differences were statistically significant (p0.01). The resting and exercise CI (liters/min/m2) decreased by 0.2 +/- 0.1 and 0.1 +/- 0.1 on placebo and 0.3 +/- 0.5 and 0.3 +/- 1.0 on metoprolol. These haemodynamic effects were accompanied with much better symptomatic improvement in patients treated with metoprolol. The differences in change in mean PAP and PVR in two groups were statistically not significant. Our results suggest that the symptomatic patients with MS, waiting for definitive intervention for 6 months or less, would benefit if given beta blockers during this period.

Aortic and coronary sinus platelet aggregation, thromboxane A2 (TXA2) and prostacyclin (PG12) levels were studied in fourteen patients of stable angina (SA), six of vasopastic angina (VA) and six control subjects (C). Patients of SA were studied at rest and during incremental atrial pacing and patients with VA were studied at rest and during various stages of vasospasm. Platelet aggregation was studied with different working concentrations of ADP, epinephrine and collagen. TX A2 and PGI2 concentrations were estimated by measuring levels of their stable metabolites viz. thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto prostaglandin F1 alpha (PGF1 alpha) respectively. Platelet aggregation was increased in SA and VA patients (p0.01) and further increase was seen during vasospasm (p0.001). However, it failed to increase on incremental atrial pacing. Similarly, TXB2 and PGF1 alpha levels were raised in SA and VA patients. While TXB2 further increased during vasospasm but not during atrial pacing. PGF1 infinity failed to rise with either. Thus platelets are in an activated state in SA and VA. This activated state is a cause and not an effect in SA and VA. An imbalance in the levels of TXA2 and PG12 could account for the vasospasm.

Fifty one angiographically proved cases of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) in the age group of 5-50 years were analysed retrospectively for the level(s) of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction. Mean age was 18.1 +/- 11 yrs. Subvalvular stenosis was found to be the commonest site of RVOT obstruction in 49 (96.1%) patients. Evidence of valvular pulmonary stenosis was seen quite commonly (42/51, 83.9% cases), mostly in association with obstruction at other sites. Supravalvular stenosis was also seen in 17 (33.3%) cases. Higher incidence of pulmonary valvular involvement in patients with TOF, in higher average age of patient population may represent valvular involvement to be an acquired phenomenon.

The in vitro effect of prostaglandin E1 on the fibrinolytic process was assessed in 30 patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) using Thrombin Time (TT) and Euglobulin Clot Lysis time (ECLT) as parameters. Thrombin time was shortened and ECLT was prolonged (p less than 0.001) in acute MI as compared to thirty age and sex matched controls. In both groups, preincubation of sera with PGE1 (3.3 micrograms/ml) produced prolongation of TT and shortening of ECLT (p less than 0.001). Thus PGE1, which is a naturally occurring vasodilator and antiplatelet agent, also appears to have fibrinolytic activity.
