    (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.

    Coronary atherosclerotic burden assessed by SYNTAX scores and outcomes in surgical, percutaneous or medical strategies: a retrospective cohort study
    (2022) SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; FARKOUH, Michael E.; HUEB, Whady; REZENDE, Paulo C.; CAMPOLINA, Alessandro G.; MARTINS, Eduardo Bello; GODOY, Lucas C.; SOARES, Paulo Rogerio; RAMIRES, Jose A. F.; FILHO, Roberto Kalil
    Introduction Coronary atherosclerotic burden and SYNTAX Score (SS) are predictors of cardiovascular events. Objectives To investigate the value of SYNTAX scores (SS, SYNTAX Score II (SSII) and residual SYNTAX Score (rSS)) for predicting cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Single tertiary centre. Participants Medicine, Angioplasty or Surgery Study database patients with stable multivessel CAD and preserved ejection fraction. Interventions Patients with CAD undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or medical treatment (MT) alone from January 2002 to December 2015. Primary and secondary outcomes Primary: 5-year allcause mortality. Secondary: composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, stroke and subsequent coronary revascularisation at 5 years. Results A total of 1719 patients underwent PCI (n=573), CABG (n=572) or MT (n=574) alone. The SS was not considered an independent predictor of 5-year mortality in the PCI (low, intermediate and high SS at 6.5%, 6.8% and 4.3%, respectively, p=0.745), CABG (low, intermediate and high SS at 5.7%, 8.0% and 12.1%, respectively, p=0.194) and MT (low, intermediate and high SS at 6.8%, 6.9% and 6.5%, respectively, p=0.993) cohorts. The SSII (low, intermediate and high SSII at 3.6% vs 7.9% vs 10.5%, respectively, p<0.001) was associated with a higher mortality risk in the overall population. Within each treatment strategy, SSII was associated with a significant 5-year mortality rate, especially in CABG patients with higher SSII (low, intermediate and high SSII at 1.8%, 9.7% and 10.0%, respectively, p=0.004) and in MT patients with high SSII (low, intermediate and high SSII at 5.0%, 4.7% and 10.8%, respectively, p=0.031). SSII demonstrated a better predictive accuracy for mortality compared with SS and rSS (c-index=0.62). Conclusions Coronary atherosclerotic burden alone was not associated with significantly increased risk of all-cause mortality. The SSII better discriminates the risk of death.

    (2013) GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; HUEB, Whady; GERSH, Bernard J.; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; HUEB, Alexandre Ciappina; VIEIRA, Ricardo D'Oliveira; FAVARATO, Desiderio; PEREIRA, Alexandre Costa; SOARES, Paulo Rogerio; SERRANO JR., Carlos Vicente; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background Assuming that coronary interventions, both coronary bypass surgery (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), are directed to preserve left ventricular function, it is not known whether medical therapy alone (MT) can achieve this protection. Thus, we evaluated the evolution of LV ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) treated by CABG, PCI, or MT as a post hoc analysis of a randomized controlled trial with a follow-up of 10 years. Methods Left ventricle ejection fraction was assessed with transthoracic echocardiography in patients with multivessel CAD, participants of the MASS II trial before randomization to CABG, PCI, or MT, and re-evaluated after 10 years of follow-up. Results Of the 611 patients, 422 were alive after 10.32 1.43 years. Three hundred and fifty had LVEF reassessed: 108 patients from MT, 111 from CABG, and 131 from PCI. There was no difference in LVEF at the beginning (0.61 0.07, 0.61 0.08, 0.61 0.09, respectively, for PCI, CABG, and MT, P 0.675) or at the end of follow-up (0.56 0.11, 0.55 0.11, 0.55 0.12, P 0.675), or in the decline of LVEF (reduction delta of 7.2 17.13, 9.08 18.77, and 7.54 22.74). Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during the follow-up was associated with greater reduction in LVEF. The presence of previous AMI (OR: 2.50, 95 CI: 1.404.45; P 0.0007) and during the follow-up (OR: 2.73, 95 CI: 1.255.92; P 0.005) was associated with development of LVEF 45. Conclusion Regardless of the therapeutic option applied, LVEF remains preserved in the absence of a major adverse cardiac event after 10 years of follow-up.

    (2013) LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; HUEB, Whady; GARCIA, Rosa Maria Rahmi; PEREIRA, Alexandre Costa; SOARES, Paulo Rogerio; FAVARATO, Desiderio; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; VIEIRA, Ricardo D'Oliveira; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; TAKIUTI, Myrthes; GIRARDI, Priscyla; HUEB, Alexandre Ciappina; RAMIRES, Jose A. F.; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Introduction Diabetes mellitus is a major cause of coronary artery disease (CAD). Despite improvement in the management of patients with stable CAD, diabetes remains a major cause of increased morbidity and mortality. There is no conclusive evidence that either modality is better than medical therapy alone for the treatment of stable multivessel CAD in patients with diabetes in a very long-term follow-up. Our aim was to compare 3 therapeutic strategies for stable multivessel CAD in a diabetic population and non-diabetic population. Methods It was compared medical therapy (MT), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) in 232 diabetic patients and 379 nondiabetic patients with multivessel CAD. Endpoints evaluated were overall and cardiac mortality. Results Patients (n = 611) were randomized to CABG (n = 203), PCI (n = 205), or MT (n = 203). In a 10-year follow-up, more deaths occurred among patients with diabetes than among patients without diabetes (P = .001) for overall mortality. In this follow-up, 10-year mortality rates were 32.3% and 23.2% for diabetics and non-diabetics respectively (P = .024). Regarding cardiac mortality, 10-year cardiac mortality rates were 19.4% and 12.7% respectively (P = .031). Considering only diabetic patients and stratifying this population by treatment option, we found mortality rates of 31.3% for PCI, 27.5% for CABG and 37.5% for MT (P = .015 for CABG vs MT) and cardiac mortality rates of 18.8%, 12.5% and 26.1% respectively (P = .005 for CABG vs MT). Conclusions/interpretation Among patients with stable multivessel CAD and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, the 3 therapeutic regimens had high rates of overall and cardiac-related deaths among diabetic compared with nondiabetic patients. Moreover, better outcomes were observed in diabetic patients undergoing CABG compared to MT in relation to overall and cardiac mortality in a 10-year follow-up.

    Effect of diabetic kidney disease on therapeutic strategies for coronary artery disease: ten year follow-up
    (2021) BATISTA, Daniel Valente; HUEB, Whady; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; GARCIA, Rosa Maria Rahmi; LINHARES FILHO, Jaime Paula Pessoa; MARTINS, Eduardo Bello; SERRANO JUNIOR, Carlos Vicente; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background: The best treatment for coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (DM2) and chronic kidney disease is unknown. Methods: This retrospective study included MASS registry patients with DM2 and multivessel CAD, stratified by kidney function. Primary endpoint was combined of mortality, myocardial infarction, or additional revascularization. Results: Median follow-up was 9.5 years. Primary endpoint occurrences among strata 1 and 2 were 53.4% and 40.7%, respectively (P=.020). Mortality rates were 37.4% and 24.6% in strata 1 and 2, respectively (P<.001). We observed a lower rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) (P=.027 for stratum 1 and P<.001 for stratum 2) and additional revascularization (P=.001 for stratum 1 and P<.001 for stratum 2) for those in the surgical group. In a multivariate analysis, eGFR was an independent predictor of MACE (P=.034) and mortality (P=.020). Conclusions: Among subjects with DM2 and CAD the presence of lower eGFR rate was associated with higher rates of MACE and mortality, irrespective of treatment choice. CABG was associated with lower rates of MACE in both renal function strata. eGFR was an independent predictor of MACE and mortality in a 10-year follow-up.

    Myocardial microstructure assessed by T1 mapping after on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting
    (2023) DALLAZEN, Anderson Roberto; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; HUEB, Whady; HLATKY, Mark Andrew; NOMURA, Cesar Higa; ROCHITTE, Carlos Eduardo; BOROS, Gustavo Andre Boeing; RIBAS, Fernando Faglioni; RIBEIRO, Matheus de Oliveira Laterza; SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; DANTAS, Roberto Nery; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background: The correlation between the release of cardiac biomarkers after revascularization, in the absence of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) or myocardial edema, and the development of myocardial tissue damage remains unclear. This study sought to identify whether the release of biomarkers is associated with cardiac damage by assessing myocardial microstructure on T1 mapping after on-pump (ONCAB) and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). Methods: Seventy-six patients with stable multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD) and preserved systolic ventricular function were included. T1 mapping, high-sensitive cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase myocardial band (CK-MB) mass, and ventricular dimensions and function were measured before and after procedures. Results: Of the 76 patients, 44 underwent OPCAB, and 32 ONCAB; 52 were men (68.4%), and the mean age was 63 +/- 8.5 years. In both OPCAB and ONCAB the native T1 values were similar before and after surgeries. An increase in extracellular volume (ECV) values after the procedures was observed, due to the decrease in hematocrit levels during the second cardiac resonance. However, the lambda partition coefficient showed no significant difference after the surgeries. The median peak release of cTnI and CK-MB were higher after ONCAB than after OPCAB [3.55 (2.12-4.9) vs. 2.19 (0.69-3.4) ng/mL, P=0.009 and 28.7 (18.2-55.4) vs. 14.3 (9.3-29.2) ng/mL, P=0.009, respectively]. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was similar in both groups before and after surgery. Conclusions: In the absence of documented myocardial infarction, T1 mapping did not identify structural tissue damage after surgical revascularization with or without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), despite the excessive release of cardiac biomarkers.

    Impact of Chronic Kidney Disease on Long-Term Outcomes in Type 2 Diabetic Patients With Coronary Artery Disease on Surgical, Angioplasty, or Medical Treatment
    (2016) LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; HUEB, Whady; GERSH, Bernard J.; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; FAVARATO, Desiderio; HUEB, Alexandre Ciappina; GARCIA, Rosa Maria Rahmi; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background. Coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients with diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is not well studied, and the best treatment for this condition is not established. Our aim was to compare three therapeutic strategies for CAD in diabetic patients stratified by renal function. Methods. Patients with multivessel CAD that underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), angioplasty (percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI]), or medical therapy alone (MT) were included. Data were analyzed according to glomerular filtration rate in three strata: normal (>90 mL/min), mild CKD (60 to 89 mL/min), and moderate CKD (30 to 59 mL/min). End points comprised overall rate of mortality, acute myocardial infarction, and need for additional revascularization. Results. Among patients with normal renal function (n = 270), 122 underwent CABG, 72 PCI, and 76 MT; among patients with mild CKD (n = 367), 167 underwent CABG, 92 PCI, and 108 MT; and among patients with moderate CKD (n = 126), 46 underwent CABG, 40 PCI, and 40 MT. Event-free survival was 80.4%, 75.7%, 67.5% for strata 1, 2, and 3, respectively (p = 0.037). Survival rates among patients with no, mild, and moderate CKD are 91.1%, 89.6%, and 76.2%, respectively (p = 0.001) (hazard ratio 0.69; 95% confidence interval 0.51 to 0.95; p = 0.024 for stratum 1 versus 3). We found no differences for overall number of deaths or acute myocardial infarctions irrespective of strata. The need of new revascularization was different in all strata, favoring CABG (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p = 0.029 for no, mild, and moderate CKD, respectively). Conclusions. Mortality rates were higher in patients with mild and moderate CKD. Higher event-free survival was observed in the CABG group among patients with no and mild CKD. Besides, CABG was associated with less need for new revascularization compared with PCI and MT in all renal function strata. This trial was registered at http://www.controlled-trials.com as ISRCTN66068876. (C) 2016 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons

    Significant elevation of biomarkers of myocardial necrosis after coronary artery bypass grafting without myocardial infarction established assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance
    (2017) COSTA, Leandro Menezes Alves da; HUEB, Whady; NOMURA, Cesar Higa; HUEB, Alexandre Ciappina; VILLA, Alexandre Volney; OIKAWA, Fernando Teiichi Costa; MELO, Rodrigo Morel Vieira de; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; SEGRE, Carlos Alexandre Wainrober; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    The release of myocardial necrosis biomarkers after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) frequently occurs. However, the correlation between biomarker release and the diagnosis of procedure-related myocardial infarction (MI) (type 5) has been controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the amount and pattern of cardiac biomarker release after elective OPCAB in patients without evidence of a new MI on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). Patients with normal baseline cardiac biomarkers referred for elective OPCAB were prospectively included. CMR with LGE was performed in all patients before and after interventions. Measurements of troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase MB fraction (CK-MB) were systematically performed before and after the procedure. Patients with new LGE on the postprocedure CMR were excluded. All of the 53 patients without CMR evidence of a procedure-related MI after OPCAB exhibited a cTnI elevation peak above the 99th percentile. In 48 (91%), the peak value was > 10 times this threshold. However, 41 (77%) had a CK-MB peak above the limit of the 99th percentile, and this peak was > 10 times the 99th percentile in only 7 patients (13%). The median peak release of cTnI was 0.290 (0.8-3.7) ng/mL, which is 50-fold higher than the 99th percentile. In contrast with CK-MB, considerable cTnI release often occurs after an elective OPCAB procedure, despite the absence of new LGE on CMR.

    Cancer-related deaths among different treatment options in chronic coronary artery disease: results of a 6-year follow-up of the MASS II study
    (2012) VIEIRA, Ricardo D.; PEREIRA, Alexandre C.; LIMA, Eduardo G.; GARZILLO, Cibele L.; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; FAVARATO, Desiderio; HUEB, Alexandre C.; GERSH, Bernard J.; RAMIRES, Jose A. F.; HUEB, Whady
    Introduction The primary end points of randomized clinical trials evaluating the outcome of therapeutic strategies for coronary artery disease (CAD) have included nonfatal acute myocardial infarction, the need for further revascularization, and overall mortality. Noncardiac causes of death may distort the interpretation of the long-term effects of coronary revascularization. Materials and methods This post-hoc analysis of the second Medicine, Angioplasty, or Surgery Study evaluates the cause of mortality of patients with multivessel CAD undergoing medical treatment, percutaneous coronary intervention, or surgical myocardial revascularization [coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG)] after a 6-year follow-up. Mortality was classified as cardiac and noncardiac death, and the causes of noncardiac death were reported. Results Patients were randomized into CABG and non-CABG groups (percutaneous coronary intervention plus medical treatment). No statistical differences were observed in overall mortality (P = 0.824). A significant difference in the distribution of causes of mortality was observed among the CABG and non-CABG groups (P = 0.003). In the CABG group, of the 203 randomized patients, the overall number of deaths was 34. Sixteen patients (47.1%) died of cardiac causes and 18 patients (52.9%) died of noncardiac causes. Of these, seven deaths (20.6%) were due to neoplasia. In the non-CABG group, comprising 408 patients, the overall number of deaths was 69. Fifty-three patients (77%) died of cardiac causes and 16 patients (23%) died of noncardiac causes. Only five deaths (7.2%) were due to neoplasia. Conclusion Different treatment options for multivessel coronary artery disease have similar overall mortality: CABG patients had the lowest incidence of cardiac death, but the highest incidence of noncardiac causes of death, and specifically a higher tendency toward cancer-related deaths.

    Cost-effectiveness of on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting for patients with coronary artery disease: Results from the MASS III trial
    (2018) SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; HUEB, Whady A.; FARKOUH, Michael E.; MARON, David J.; SOAREZ, Patricia Coelho de; CAMPOLINA, Alessandro Goncalves; TAKIUTI, Myrthes Emy; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; GODOY, Lucas Colombo; HUEB, Alexandre Ciapinina; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; GARZILLO, Cibele Larroza; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, Roberto
    Background: Recent trials have reported similar clinical outcomes between on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). However, long-term cost-effectiveness of these strategies is unknown. Methods: A prespedfied economic study was performed based on the MASS Ill trial. Costs were estimated for all patients based on observed healthcare resource usage over a 5-year follow-up. Health state utilities were evaluated with the SF-6D questionnaire. Cost-effectiveness was assessed as cost per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gained using a Markov model. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis with the Monte-Carlo simulation and cost-effectiveness acceptability curve were used to address uncertainty. Results: Quality of life improved significantly in both groups during follow-up compared with baseline. At 5 years, when comparing on-pump and off-pump CABG groups, no differences were found in cumulative life-years (4.851 and 4.766 years, P = .319) and QALY gained (4.150 and 4.105 QALYs, P = .332). Mean cost in US dollars per patient during the trial did not differ significantly between the on-pump and off-pump groups ($5890.29 and $5674.75, respectively, P = .409). Over a lifetime horizon, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of on-pump versus off-pump CABG was $12,576 per QALY gained, which is above the suggested cost-effectiveness threshold range (from $3210 to 10,122). In the sensitivity analysis, the probability that on-pump CABG is cost-effective compared to off-pump surgery for a willingness-to-pay threshold of $3212 per QALY gained was <1%. For the $10,122 per QALY threshold, the same probability was 35%. Conclusion: This decision-analytic model suggests that on-pump CABG is not cost-effective when compared to off-pump CABG from a public health system perspective.
