Methods: A total of 142 patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS who were treated in the hospital between June 2015 and September 2017 were divided into control group (n=71) and Shenmai injection group (n=71) by random number table method. Control group received antiplatelet drugs based on routine treatment, and Shenmai injection group received Shenmai injection combined with antiplatelet drugs on the basis of routine treatment. The differences in serum contents of plaque property-related indexes and inflammatory factors were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in serum contents of metabolism indexes, lipid indexes, cell adhesion molecules and inflammatory factors between the two groups. After 1 week of treatment, serum metabolism indexes Hcy and UA contents of Shenmai injection group were lower than those of control group;serum lipid indexes ox-LDL and Lp-PLA2 contents were lower than those of control group;serum adhesion molecules sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1 contents were lower than those of control group;serum inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-23 contents were lower than those of control group. Conclusion: Adjuvant Shenmai injection therapy can further stabilize the plaques and inhibit the systemic inflammatory response in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS.展开更多

Patients' reversion rate of adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet aggregation(ADP-PA) was assessed at baseline, 12 to 24 h after administration of medication, and after 72 h of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). The primary endpoint of the study was platelet reactivity assessed with ADP-PA at 30 days after PCI. Adverse events(AEs) were recorded for 30-day and 180-day follow-up periods.Results: There were no significant differences between both the groups in platelet response to clopidogrel at 12–24h after drug administration(54.09%±18.90% vs. 51.62%±19.85%, P=0.12), 72 h after PCI(52.15%±19.45% vs. 49.66%±20.05%, P=0.18), and 30 days after PCI(50.44%±14.54% vs. 48.52%±15.08%, P=0.17). The rate of AEs did not differ significantly between groups during the 30-day(15.2% vs. 14.8%, P=0.91) and 180-day(16.5% vs. 14.5%, P=0.50) follow-up periods after PCI.Conclusion: The addition of omeprazole or pantoprazole to clopidogrel did not restrict the effect of platelet aggregation by reducing the conversion of clopidogrel. Compared with clopidogrel alone, pantoprazole-clopidogrel and omeprazoleclopidogrel combinations did not increase the incidence of adverse clinical events during 30-day and 180-day follow-up periods after PCI.展开更多

Methods 190 consecutive patients aged 80 years or older with NSTEMI were included in the retrospective study from September 2014 to August 2017, of which 69 patients received conservative strategy and 121 patients received invasive strategy. The primary outcome was death. Multivariate Cox regression models were used to assess the statistical association between strategies and mortality. The survival probability was further analyzed. Results The primary outcome occurred in 17.4% patients in the invasive group and in 42.0% patients in the conservative group (P = 0.0002). The readmission rate in the invasive group (14.9%) was higher than that in the conservative group (7.2%). Creatinine level (OR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.10–1.03, P = 0.05) and use of diuretic (OR = 3.65, 95% CI: 1.56–8.53, P = 0.003) were independent influential factors for invasive strategy. HRs for multivariate Cox regression models were 3.45 (95% CI: 1.77–6.75, P = 0.0003), 3.02 (95% CI: 1.52–6.01, P = 0.0017), 2.93 (95% CI: 1. 46–5.86, P = 0.0024) and 2.47 (95% CI: 1.20–5.07, P = 0.0137). Compared with the patients received invasive strategy, the conservative group had remarkably reduced survival probability with time since treatment (P < 0.001). Conclusions An invasive strategy is superior to a conservative strategy in reducing mortality of patients aged 80 years or older with NSTEMI. Our results suggest that an invasive strategy is more suitable for the very elderly patients with NSTEMI in China.展开更多

We examined and compared the long-term outcomes of invasive and conservative strategies in patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and characterized the patients selected for an invasive approach. Methods: A total of 976 patients with acute NSTEMI were collected from December 2006 to October 2012 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University Hospital. They are divided into conservative strategy (586 patients) and invasive strategy (390 patients) group. Unified tbllow-up questionnaire was performed by telephone contact (cut-off date was November, 2013). The long-term clinical events were analyzed and related to the different treatment strategies. Results: The median follow-up time was 29 months. Mortality was 28.7% (n = 168) in the conservative group and 2.1% (n = 8) in the invasive management at long-term clinical follow-up. The secondary endpoint (the composite endpoint) was 59.0% (n = 346) in the conservative group and 30.3% (n = 118) in the invasive management. Multivariate analysis showed that patients in the conservative group had higher all-cause mortality rates than those who had the invasive management (adjusted risk ratio [RR] = 7.795; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.796 16.006, P 〈 0.001), and the similar result was also seen in tile secondary endpoint (adjusted RR : 2.102; 95% (7: 1.694-2.610, P 〈 0.001 ). In the subgroup analysis according to each Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction risk score (TRS), log-rank analysis showed lower mortality and secondary endpoint rates in the invasive group with the intermediate and high-risk patients (TRS 3-7). Conclusions: An invasive strategy could improve long-term outcomes for NSTEMI patients, especially for intermediate and high-risk ones (TRS 3- 7).展开更多

However, the predictive potential of admission SBP on 1-year mortality has not fully elucidated in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS(NSTEACS). Methods We enrolled 1325 patients to investigate the association between admission SBP in patients hospitalized for NSTEACS. We analyzed the association between admission SBP and 1-year mortality. Admission SBP was categorized as low(〈110 mm Hg), normal(110-140 mm Hg), high(141-160 mm Hg), and very high(〉160 mm Hg). Results Compared with patients with normal admission SBP, those with low SBP had a significantly increased hazard ratios(HRs) for 1-year mortality of 3.03(P〈0.05), while patients with high and very high admission SBP had no significantly increased HRs for 1-year mortality. Conclusion Low admission SBP, but not elevated admission SBP, is a strong independent predictor of 1-year mortality in patients with NSTEACS.展开更多

Methods Two hundred and four patients with NSTE-ACS at high-risk undergoing PCI were randomized to upstream (4 -6 hours before coronary angiography) tirofiban or downstream (with the guidewire crossing the lesion) tirofiban. We evaluated myocardial damage after PCI by qualitatively analyzing cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB). Platelet aggregation inhibition and thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade were assessed. The incidences of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) at 24-hour, 90-day and 180-day after PCI were followed up. The incidences of bleeding complications and thrombocytopenia during tirofiban administration were recorded. Results There were 102 patients with NSTE-ACS randomly assigned to upstream group and downstream group respectively. The peak serum levels of cTnI within 48 hours after PCI were significantly lower with upstream tirofiban than downstream tirofiban (0.34 vs 0. 61 ; P 〈 0.05 ). Post-procedural cTnI elevation within 48 hours was significantly less frequent among patients who received upstream tirofiban than downstream tirofiban (63 % vs 82%, P 〈 0. 05 ). The peak serum levels of CK-MB as well as post-procedural CK-MB elevation within 48 hours after PCI were not significantly different between the two groups ( 15 vs 18 and 38% vs 43% ; respectively; P 〉 0. 05 ). ECG changes and the inhibition of platelet aggregation between two groups were similar ( P 〉 0.05 ). Although the inci- dences of MACE at 90-day and 180-day after PCI were not statistically different, they were consistently lower with upstream tirofiban (3 % vs 6% and 6% vs 16% ; P 〉 0.05 ). The incidences of bleeding complications and thrombocyto- penia were similar in the two groups ( 11% vs 9% ; P 〉 0.05 ). Conclusions Among patients with NSTE-ACS at high-risk undergoing PCI, upstream tirofiban is associated with attenuated myocardial damage without increasing complications.

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between vasoactive factors and plaque morphology in patients suffering from non-ST-segment elevated ACS. Methods From April 2007 to April 2009, 124 consecutive patients suffering from non-ST-segment elevated ACS who had received coronary angiography (CAG) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in the People's Liberation Army General Hospital and Beijing Anzhen Hospital were enrolled in this study. Three serum vasoactive factors, plasma soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (sFIt-1), placental growth factor (PLGF) and interleukin-18 (IL-18), were measured by enzyme-linked-immunosorbent serologic assay of the patients. The levels of vasoactive factors were compared between vulnerable plaque group and stable plaque group, and between unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group and non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTE-AMI) group. The relationship between the plaque morphology and levels of vasoactive factors was analyzed. Results The levels of vasoactive factors were similar between the UAP group (69 patients) and NSTE-AMI group (55 patients). The levels of sFIt-1 and PLGF in the vulnerable plaque group were significantly higher than those in the stable plaque group. The level of IL-18 was correlated positively with plaque morphology. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the level of PLGF was an independent risk factor for vulnerable plaque (OR=2.115, 95%Cl 1.415-5.758, P=0.018). Using the ROC curve, PLGF was a significant factor for the diagnosis of vulnerable plaque (the diagnostic point was 26.3 ng/L, the proportion of square area under the ROC curve was 0.799, 95%C/0.758-0.839, P 〈0.001 ; the sensitivity of PLGF under the ROC curve was 86%, and the specificity 63%). Conclusion Both IL-18 and PLGF are biomarkers for vulnerable plaques and helpful to predict vulnerable plaque.展开更多

However, it remains unclear whether Chinese medicine Danlou Tablet (~)~), similar to statins, may protect patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from peri-procedural myocardial damage. Objective: To demonstrate the hypothesis whether treatment with Danlou Tablet would improve clinical outcome in patients undergoing selective PCI with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) in China. Methods: Approximately 220 patients with unstable angina or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing PCI will be enrolled and randomized to Danlou Tablet treatment (4.5 g/day for 2 days before intervention, with a further 4.5 g/day for 90 days thereafter) or placebo. All patients will not receive Danlou Tablet before procedure. The primary end point is to evaluate the incidence of cardiac death, myocardial infarction or unplanned re-hospitalization and revascularization after 30 days in patients undergoing selective PCI treated with Danlou Tablet compared with placebo. Secondary endpoints include the incidence of peri-procedural myocardial injury, 3-month clinical outcomes, the quality of life and Chinese medicine syndromes assessment. Conclusion: This study protocol will provide important evidence of Danlou Tablet treatment on the peri-procedural myocardial injury in patients with NSTE-ACS undergoing selective PCI, which may support a strategy of routine Danlou Tablet therapy to improve the clinical outcomes.展开更多
文摘Objective: To investigate the effect of Shenmai injection combined with antiplatelet drugs on the plaque property and inflammatory response in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS. Methods: A total of 142 patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS who were treated in the hospital between June 2015 and September 2017 were divided into control group (n=71) and Shenmai injection group (n=71) by random number table method. Control group received antiplatelet drugs based on routine treatment, and Shenmai injection group received Shenmai injection combined with antiplatelet drugs on the basis of routine treatment. The differences in serum contents of plaque property-related indexes and inflammatory factors were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in serum contents of metabolism indexes, lipid indexes, cell adhesion molecules and inflammatory factors between the two groups. After 1 week of treatment, serum metabolism indexes Hcy and UA contents of Shenmai injection group were lower than those of control group;serum lipid indexes ox-LDL and Lp-PLA2 contents were lower than those of control group;serum adhesion molecules sVCAM-1 and sICAM-1 contents were lower than those of control group;serum inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-23 contents were lower than those of control group. Conclusion: Adjuvant Shenmai injection therapy can further stabilize the plaques and inhibit the systemic inflammatory response in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS.

文摘Background In patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS), lower admission systolic blood pressure(SBP)levels infer a worse prognosis. However, the predictive potential of admission SBP on 1-year mortality has not fully elucidated in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS(NSTEACS). Methods We enrolled 1325 patients to investigate the association between admission SBP in patients hospitalized for NSTEACS. We analyzed the association between admission SBP and 1-year mortality. Admission SBP was categorized as low(〈110 mm Hg), normal(110-140 mm Hg), high(141-160 mm Hg), and very high(〉160 mm Hg). Results Compared with patients with normal admission SBP, those with low SBP had a significantly increased hazard ratios(HRs) for 1-year mortality of 3.03(P〈0.05), while patients with high and very high admission SBP had no significantly increased HRs for 1-year mortality.

The levels of vasoactive factors were compared between vulnerable plaque group and stable plaque group, and between unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group and non-ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (NSTE-AMI) group. The relationship between the plaque morphology and levels of vasoactive factors was analyzed. Results The levels of vasoactive factors were similar between the UAP group (69 patients) and NSTE-AMI group (55 patients). The levels of sFIt-1 and PLGF in the vulnerable plaque group were significantly higher than those in the stable plaque group. The level of IL-18 was correlated positively with plaque morphology. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the level of PLGF was an independent risk factor for vulnerable plaque (OR=2.115, 95%Cl 1.415-5.758, P=0.018). Using the ROC curve, PLGF was a significant factor for the diagnosis of vulnerable plaque (the diagnostic point was 26.3 ng/L, the proportion of square area under the ROC curve was 0.799, 95%C/0.758-0.839, P 〈0.001 ; the sensitivity of PLGF under the ROC curve was 86%, and the specificity 63%). Conclusion Both IL-18 and PLGF are biomarkers for vulnerable plaques and helpful to predict vulnerable plaque.

文摘Background: It has been shown that administration of statins reduced the risk of peri-procedural myocardial damage. However, it remains unclear whether Chinese medicine Danlou Tablet (~)~), similar to statins, may protect patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from peri-procedural myocardial damage. Objective: To demonstrate the hypothesis whether treatment with Danlou Tablet would improve clinical outcome in patients undergoing selective PCI with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) in China. Methods: Approximately 220 patients with unstable angina or non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing PCI will be enrolled and randomized to Danlou Tablet treatment (4.5 g/day for 2 days before intervention, with a further 4.5 g/day for 90 days thereafter) or placebo. All patients will not receive Danlou Tablet before procedure. The primary end point is to evaluate the incidence of cardiac death, myocardial infarction or unplanned re-hospitalization and revascularization after 30 days in patients undergoing selective PCI treated with Danlou Tablet compared with placebo. Secondary endpoints include the incidence of peri-procedural myocardial injury, 3-month clinical outcomes, the quality of life and Chinese medicine syndromes assessment. Conclusion: This study protocol will provide important evidence of Danlou Tablet treatment on the peri-procedural myocardial injury in patients with NSTE-ACS undergoing selective PCI, which may support a strategy of routine Danlou Tablet therapy to improve the clinical outcomes.
