    Artrite reumatoide e doença cardiovascular: o que sabemos e o que podemos fazer pelo paciente na atualidade?
    (2012) SOEIRO, Alexandre de Matos; HADDAD, Michel; ALMEIDA, Maria Carolina Feres de; RUPPERT, Aline D.; SERRANO JR., Carlos V.
    There is increasing interest in autoimmune diseases, especially their relationship with cardiovascular disease. Rheumatoid arthritis in particular has been considered an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease in recent years. Various studies have aimed to clarify important aspects of risk stratification and treatment options in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and specific therapies are being studied that promise to reduce their long-term cardiovascular risk. We performed a wide-ranging review of the literature to highlight the importance of atherosclerotic and inflammatory mechanisms in coronary artery disease. We also suggest strategies for risk stratification and treatment of cardiovascular disease in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

    Características clínicas, angiográficas e evolução a longo prazo em pacientes com arterite de Takayasu e síndrome coronária aguda
    (2013) SOEIRO, Alexandre de Matos; ALMEIDA, Maria Carolina Feres de; TORRES, Tatiana Andreucci; FRANKEN, Marcelo; LIMA, Felipe Gallego; GANEM, Fernando; GIRALDEZ, Roberto R.; BARACIOLI, Luciano; TAVARES JR., Mucio Oliveira; SERRANO JR., Carlos V.; NICOLAU, Jose Carlos
    Introduction: Monitoring of disease activity and the best therapeutic approach are a challenge in Takayasu arteritis (TA). When associated with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), the best interventional treatment has not been established. The objective of this study was to describe the baseline characteristics, clinical manifestations, treatment and long-term outcome of patients with TA and ACS. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed eight patients between 2004 and 2010. The following data were obtained: age, gender, clinical and electrocardiographic manifestations, Kit lip class, risk factors for ACS, markers of myocardial necrosis (CK-MB and troponin), creatinine clearance, left ventricular ejection fraction, inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ESR]), medication during hospital stay, angiographic findings, treatment (medical, percutaneous or surgical) and long-term outcome. Statistical data were expressed as percentages and absolute values. Results: All eight patients were women, median age 49 years. Typical chest pain was present in 37.5%. Elevated ESR was observed in 85.7%. Three patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting, three underwent percutaneous coronary angioplasty (two with bare-metal stents and one with a drug-eluting stent) and two were treated medically. In-hospital mortality was 25%. There were no deaths during a mean follow-up of 30 months. Conclusions: In our study, patients who were discharged home had good outcomes in long-term follow-up with medical, percutaneous or surgical treatment. ESR appears to be associated with ACS in TA.

    Is There Any Relationship between TSH Levels and Prognosis in Acute Coronary Syndrome?
    (2018) SOEIRO, Alexandre de Matos; ARAUJO, Victor Arrais; VELLA, Julia Pitombo; BOSSA, Aline Siqueira; BISELLI, Bruno; LEAL, Tatiana de Carvalho Andreucci Torres; SOEIRO, Maria Carolina Feres de Almeida; SERRANO JR., Carlos V.; MUELLER, Christian; OLIVEIRA JUNIOR, Mucio Tavares de
    Background: Some small studies have related higher levels of thyrotropin (TSH) to potentially worse prognosis in acute coronary syndromes. However, this relationship remains uncertain. Objective: To analyze the outcomes of patients with acute coronary syndromes in relation to the value of TSH at admission. Methods: Observational and retrospective study with 505 patients (446 in group I [TSH <= 4 mIU/L] and 59 in group II [TSH > 4 mIU/L]) with acute coronary syndromes between May 2010 and May 2014. We obtained data about comorbidities and the medications used at the hospital. The primary endpoint was in-hospital all-cause death. The secondary endpoint included combined events (death, non-fatal unstable angina or myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, bleeding and stroke). Comparisons between groups were made by one-way ANOVA and chi-square test. Multivariate analysis was determined by logistic regression. Analyses were considered significant when p < 0.05. Results: Significant differences between groups I and II were observed regarding the use of enoxaparin (75.2% vs. 57.63%, p = 0.02) and statins (84.08% vs. 71.19%, p < 0.0001), previous stroke (5.83% vs. 15.25%, p = 0.007), combined events (14.80% vs. 27.12%, OR = 3.05, p = 0.004), cardiogenic shock (4.77% vs. 6.05%, OR = 4.77, p = 0.02) and bleeding (12.09% vs. 15.25%, OR = 3.36, p = 0.012). Conclusions: In patients with acute coronary syndromes and TSH > 4 mIU/L at admission, worse prognosis was observed, with higher incidences of in-hospital combined events, cardiogenic shock and bleeding.

    Mortality reduction with use of oral beta-blockers in patients with acute coronary syndrome
    (2016) SOEIRO, Alexandre de Matos; SILVA, Pedro Gabriel Melo de Barros e; ROQUE, Eduardo Alberto de Castro; BOSSA, Aline Siqueira; ZULLINO, Cindel Nogueira; SIMOES, Sheila Aparecida; OKADA, Mariana Yumi; LEAL, Tatiana de Carvalho Andreucci Torres; SOEIRO, Maria Carolina Feres de Almeida; SERRANO JR., Carlos V.; OLIVEIRA JR., Mucio Tavares
    OBJECTIVES: Recent studies have revealed a relationship between beta-blocker use and worse prognosis in acute coronary syndrome, mainly due to a higher incidence of cardiogenic shock. However, the relevance of this relationship in the reperfusion era is unknown. The aim of this study was to analyze the outcomes of patients with acute coronary syndrome that started oral beta-blockers within the first 24 hours of hospital admission (group I) compared to patients who did not use oral beta-blockers in this timeframe (group II). METHODS: This was an observational, retrospective and multicentric study with 2,553 patients (2,212 in group I and 341 in group II). Data regarding demographic characteristics, coronary treatment and medication use in the hospital were obtained. The primary endpoint was in-hospital all-cause mortality. The groups were compared by ANOVA and the chi-square test. Multivariate analysis was conducted by logistic regression and results were considered significant when p < 0.05. RESULTS: Significant differences were observed between the groups in the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, enoxaparin, and statins; creatinine levels; ejection fraction; tabagism; age; and previous coronary artery bypass graft. Significant differences were also observed between the groups in mortality (2.67% vs 9.09%, OR= 0.35, p= 0.02) and major adverse cardiovascular events (11% vs 29.5%, OR= 4.55, p= 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with acute coronary syndrome who underwent early intervention with oral betablockers during the first 24 hours of hospital admission had a lower in-hospital death rate and experienced fewer major adverse cardiovascular events with no increase in cardiogenic shock or sustained ventricular arrhythmias compared to patients who did not receive oral beta-blockers within this timeframe.

    Intracardiac embolization of inferior vena cava filter associated with right atrium perforation and cardiac tamponade
    (2014) SOEIRO, Alexandre de Matos; FERNANDES, Felipe Lourenco; TEIXEIRA, Rafael Plens; NICZ, Pedro Felipe Gomez; SOEIRO, Maria Carolina Feres de Almeida; SERRANO JR., Carlos V.; OLIVEIRA JR., Mucio Tavares de
    Insertion of inferior vena cava filters has been well established in literature, reducing occurrence of pulmonary embolism after an episode of deep venous thrombosis in patients with contraindication to anticoagulation. There are a small number of complications related to procedure and embolization is rare. In this context, we described a case of intracardiac embolization associated with cardiac tamponade.
