    The impact of the rapid use of beta-blockers on ventricular remodeling and mortality in end-stage heart failure (the FAST study)
    (2012) MELO, Domingos B.; BARRETTO, Antonio P.; OCHIAI, Marcelo; CARDOSO, Juliano; OLIVEIRA, Aristea; MELO, Fernando; MORGADO, Paulo; UCHIDA, Augusto; RAMIRES, Jose F.
    Introduction: The therapy with beta blockers (BB) is fundamental in the treatment of heart failure(HF). However, even though the data documents the benefits of BB, the optimizing of the dosage of this medication during hospitalization has yet to be tested. Objectives: Our objective was to evaluate the safety and effectivity of the rapid usage of BB on patients (pcts) hospitalized for advanced HF. Methods: Ninety-two pcts were studied with advanced HF(NYHA IV) and fraction of ejection (EF) of the left ventricule (LV) 45% were hospitalized for compensation and accompanied after release. The average age was 62.25 years of age with 59 being males. The ptcs were divided into two groups: 46 for treatment (GT) and 46 control (GC). During hospitalization, they were placed randomly for BB rapid usage with an increase of dosage every two days (GT), or every 15 days (GC). The principal result was the occurrence of re-hospitalization or death for various different causes.Utilizing: t from Student, Mann-Whitney, Qui-square, Fisher calculation. Kaplan-Meiyer for survival, with comparison using the test of Log-rank and the “hazard ratio” or the reason of the risks calculated with the Cox model. Results: With the GT group, there was a significant reduction of the diameter of the systolic of the LV in 3 months and 1 year (p<0,001), and remained unaltered among GCs (P=0,337).The final diastolic diameter of the LV presented a significant reduction. (p=0,036) for the GTs, and the GCs did not show any sig. reduction (p=0,250). There was a sig. increase of the LVEF with the GTs (p<0,001) in 3 months, but did not occur with the GCs (P=0,151). The distance covered in the running test of 6 minutes increased sig.(P<0,001) with the GT in relation to the GC. The GT presented the probability of being free of any sig. future hospitalization_greater than the GT (p=0,045). The possibility of survival for the GT was sig. greater than the GC during the period of evaluation (P=0,002) (HR and CI at 95%). Conclusion: Beta blockers rapid optimization dosages during hospitalization of end-stage HF patients is safe and promotes a better ventricular remodeling and lower mortality rate than that observed with a usual treatment schedule.

    Role of Trimetazidine in Ischemic Preconditioning in Patients With Symptomatic Coronary Artery Disease
    (2015) COSTA, Leandro M. A.; REZENDE, Paulo C.; GARCIA, Rosa M. R.; UCHIDA, Augusto H.; SEGURO, Luis Fernando B. C.; SCUDELER, Thiago L.; BOCCHI, Edimar A.; KRIEGER, Jose E.; HUEB, Whady; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio F.; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Ischemic preconditioning (IP) is a powerful cardioprotective cellular mechanism that has been related to the warm-up phenomenon or walk-through angina, and has been documented through the use of sequential exercise tests (ETs). It is known that several drugs, for example, cromokalim, pinacidil, adenosine, and nicorandil, can interfere with the cellular pathways of IP. The purpose of this article is to report the effect of the anti-ischemic agent trimetazidine (TMZ) on IP in symptomatic coronary artery disease (CAD) patients.We conducted a prospective study evaluating IP by the analysis of ischemic parameters in 2 sequential ETs. In phase I, without TMZ, patients underwent ET1 and ET2 with a 30-minute interval between them. In phase II, after 1 week of TMZ 35mg twice daily, all patients underwent 2 consecutive ETs (ET3 and ET4). IP was considered present when the time to 1.0-mm segment ST on electrocardiogram deviation (T-1.0mm) and rate pressure product (RPP) were greater in the second of 2 tests. The improvement in T-1.0mm and RPP were compared in the 2 phases: without TMZ and after 1-week TMZ to assess the action of such drug in myocardial protective mechanisms. ETs were analyzed by 2 independent cardiologists.From 135 CAD patients screened, 96 met inclusion criteria and 62 completed the study protocol. Forty patients manifested IP by demonstrating an improvement in T-1.0mm in ET2 compared with ET1, without the use of any drugs (phase I). In phase II, after 1-week TMZ, 26 patients (65%) did not show any incremental result in ischemic parameters in ET4 compared with ET3. Furthermore, of these patients, 8 (20%) had IP blockage.In this study, TMZ did not add any benefit to IP in patients with stable symptomatic CAD.

    (2014) MELO, Rodrigo Morel Vieira de; HUEB, Whady; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; HUEB, Alexandre Ciappina; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background: We aim to evaluate in-hospital events and long-term clinical outcomes in patients over 60 years of age with stable coronary artery disease and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction undergoing off-pump or on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods: The MASS III was a single-center randomized trial that evaluate 308 patients with stable coronary artery disease and preserved ventricular function assigned for: 155 to off-pump and 153 to on-pump CABG. Of this, 176 (58.3%) patients were 60 years or older at the time of randomization (90 of-pump and 86 on-pump). The primary short-term end point was a composite of myocardial infarction, stroke, and overall mortality occurring within 30 days after surgery or before discharge, whichever was later. The primary long-term end point was death from any cause within 5 years, non-fatal myocardial infarction between 30 days and 5 years, or additional revascularization between 30 days and 5 years. Results: On-pump CABG had a higher incidence of 30-day composite outcome than off-pump CABG (15,1% and 5.6%, respectively; P = 0.036). However, after the multivariate analysis, this association lost statistical significance, P = 0.05. After 5-year follow-up, there were no significant differences between both strategies of CABG in the composite end points 16.7% and 15.1%; Hazard Ratio 1.07; CI 0.41 - 1.82; P = 0.71, for off-pump and on-pump CABG respectively. Conclusions: On-pump and off-pump CABG achieved similar results of combined events at short-term and 5-year follow-up.

    (2017) REZENDE, Paulo Cury; HUEB, Whady; RAHMI, Rosa Maria; SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; AZEVEDO, Diogo Freitas Cardoso de; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; SEGRE, Carlos Alexandre Wainrober; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background: Diabetic patients may be more susceptible to myocardial injury after coronary interventions. Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the release of cardiac biomarkers, CK-MB and troponin, and the findings of new late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus after elective revascularization procedures for multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods: Patients with multivessel CAD and preserved systolic ventricular function underwent either elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), off-pump or on-pump bypass surgery (CABG). Troponin and CK-MB were systematically collected at baseline, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 h after the procedures. CMR with LGE was performed before and after the interventions. Patients were stratified according to diabetes status at study entry. Biomarkers and CMR results were compared between diabetic and nondiabetics patients. Analyses of correlation were also performed among glycemic and glycated hemoglobin (A1c) levels and troponin and CK-MB peak levels. Patients were also stratified into tertiles of fasting glycemia and A1c levels and were compared in terms of periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) on CMR. Results: Ninety (44.5%) of the 202 patients had diabetes mellitus at study entry. After interventions, median peak troponin was 2.18 (0.47, 5.14) and 2.24 (0.69, 5.42) ng/mL (P = 0.81), and median peak CK-MB was 14.1 (6.8, 31.7) and 14.0 (4.2, 29.8) ng/mL (P = 0.43), in diabetic and nondiabetic patients, respectively. The release of troponin and CK-MB over time was statistically similar in both groups and in the three treatments, besides PCI. New LGE on CMR indicated that new myocardial fibrosis was present in 18.9 and 17.3% (P = 0.91), and myocardial edema in 15.5 and 22.9% (P = 0.39) in diabetic and nondiabetic patients, respectively. The incidence of PMI in the glycemia tertiles was 17.9% versus 19.3% versus 18.7% (P = 0.98), and in the A1c tertiles was 19.1% versus 13.3% versus 22.2% (P = 0.88). Conclusions: In this study, diabetes mellitus did not add risk of myocardial injury after revascularization interventions in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease.

    Ten-year outcomes of patients randomized to surgery, angioplasty, or medical treatment for stable multivessel coronary disease: Effect of age in the Medicine, Angioplasty, or Surgery Study II trial
    (2013) REZENDE, Paulo Cury; HUEB, Whady; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; HUEB, Alexandre Ciappina; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Objective: With progressive aging, coronary artery disease has been diagnosed at more advanced ages. Although patients aged 65 years or more have been referred to surgical or percutaneous coronary interventions, the best option for coronary artery disease treatment remains uncertain. The current study compared the 3 treatment options for coronary artery disease in patients aged 65 years or more and analyzed the impact of age in treatment options. Methods: Patients were separated according to age: 65 years or more (n = 200) and less than 65 years (n = 411). All patients were followed for 10 years. The rates of overall mortality, acute myocardial infarction, and new revascularizations were analyzed. Results: Of 200 patients aged 65 years or more, 68 were randomized to medical therapy, 68 were randomized to percutaneous coronary intervention, and 64 were randomized to coronary artery bypass grafting. At 10 years, overall survival was 63% (medical therapy), 69% (percutaneous coronary intervention), and 66% (coronary artery bypass grafting) (P = .93). The survival free of combined events was 43% (medical therapy), 38% (percutaneous coronary intervention), and 66% (coronary artery bypass grafting) (P = .007). The survival free of myocardial infarction was 82% (medical therapy), 77% (percutaneous coronary intervention), and 90%(coronary artery bypass grafting) (P = .17), and survival free of new revascularizations was 59% (medical therapy), 58% (percutaneous coronary intervention), and 91% (coronary artery bypass grafting) (P = .0003). When the 2 age groups were compared, survival free of myocardial infarction for patients treated by percutaneous coronary intervention was 77% (older patients) and 92% (younger patients) (P = .004). Conclusions: In this analysis, treatment options for patients aged 65 years or more who have coronary artery disease yield similar overall survival. However, coronary artery bypass grafting was associated with fewer coronary events, and percutaneous coronary intervention was associated with a higher incidence of myocardial infarction.

    Type 2 diabetes mellitus and myocardial ischemic preconditioning in symptomatic coronary artery disease patients
    (2015) REZENDE, Paulo Cury; RAHMI, Rosa Maria; UCHIDA, Augusto Hiroshi; COSTA, Leandro Menezes Alves da; SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; SEGRE, Carlos Alexandre Wainrober; GIRARDI, Priscyla; TAKIUTI, Myrthes; SILVA, Marcela Francisca; HUEB, Whady; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; FILHO, Roberto Kalil
    Background: The influence of diabetes mellitus on myocardial ischemic preconditioning is not clearly defined. Experimental studies are conflicting and human studies are scarce and inconclusive. Objectives: Identify whether diabetes mellitus intervenes on ischemic preconditioning in symptomatic coronary artery disease patients. Methods: Symptomatic multivessel coronary artery disease patients with preserved systolic ventricular function and a positive exercise test underwent two sequential exercise tests to demonstrate ischemic preconditioning. Ischemic parameters were compared among patients with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus. Ischemic preconditioning was considered present when the time to 1.0 mm ST deviation and rate pressure-product were greater in the second of 2 exercise tests. Sequential exercise tests were analyzed by 2 independent cardiologists. Results: Of the 2,140 consecutive coronary artery disease patients screened, 361 met inclusion criteria, and 174 patients (64.2 +/- 7.6 years) completed the study protocol. Of these, 86 had the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Among diabetic patients, 62 (72%) manifested an improvement in ischemic parameters consistent with ischemic preconditioning, whereas among nondiabetic patients, 60 (68%) manifested ischemic preconditioning (p = 0.62). The analysis of patients who demonstrated ischemic preconditioning showed similar improvement in the time to 1.0 mm ST deviation between diabetic and nondiabetic groups (79.4 +/- 47.6 vs 65.5 +/- 36.4 s, respectively, p = 0.12). Regarding rate pressure-product, the improvement was greater in diabetic compared to nondiabetic patients (3011 +/- 2430 vs 2081 +/- 2139 bpm x mmHg, respectively, p = 0.01). Conclusions: In this study, diabetes mellitus was not associated with impairment in ischemic preconditioning in symptomatic coronary artery disease patients. Furthermore, diabetic patients experienced an improvement in this significant mechanism of myocardial protection.
