- 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, RobertoBackground: 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.
- Association of Longitudinal Values of Glycated Hemoglobin With Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Multivessel Coronary Artery Disease(2020) REZENDE, Paulo Cury; HLATKY, Mark Andrew; HUEB, Whady; GARCIA, Rosa Maria Rahmi; SELISTRE, Luciano da Silva; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; BOROS, Gustavo Andre Boeing; RIBAS, Fernando Faglioni; SERRANO, Carlos Vicente; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, RobertoQuestion Are longitudinal glycated hemoglobin values associated with cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes and stable multivessel coronary artery disease? Findings In this cohort study of 725 patients with type 2 diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease, a 1-point increase in glycated hemoglobin values during follow-up was independently associated with higher risk of the combined outcome of death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke, after adjustment for baseline clinical factors. Meaning Longitudinal increase of glycated hemoglobin was associated with higher rates of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease, and the mechanisms underlying this association require further investigation. This cohort study examines whether longitudinal variation of glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) is associated with cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD). Importance Glycated hemoglobin (HbA(1c)) values are used to guide glycemic control, but in patients with type 2 diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease (CAD), the association of the longitudinal values of HbA(1c) with cardiovascular outcomes is unclear. Objective To assess whether longitudinal variation of HbA(1c) is associated with cardiovascular events in long-term follow-up among patients with diabetes and multivessel CAD. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study included 888 patients with type 2 diabetes and multivessel CAD in the Medicine, Angioplasty, or Surgery Study (MASS) Registry of the Heart Institute of the University of Sao Paulo from January 2003 to December 2007. Data were analyzed from January 15, 2018, to October 15, 2019. Exposure Longitudinal HbA(1c) values. Main Outcomes and Measures The combined outcome of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke. Results Of 888 patients with type 2 diabetes and multivessel CAD, 725 (81.6%; median [range] age, 62.4 [55.7-68.0] years; 467 [64.4%] men) had complete clinical and HbA(1c) information during a median (interquartile range) follow-up period of 10.0 (8.0-12.3) years, with a mean (SD) of 9.5 (3.8) HbA(1c) values for each patient. The composite end point of death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke occurred in 262 patients (36.1%). A 1-point increase in the longitudinal value of HbA(1c) was significantly associated with a 14% higher risk of the combined end point of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke (hazard ratio, 1.14; 95% CI, 1.04-1.24; P = .002) in the unadjusted analysis. After adjusting for baseline factors (ie, age, sex, 2-vessel or 3-vessel CAD, initial CAD treatments, ejection fraction, and creatinine and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels), a 1-point increase in the longitudinal value of HbA(1c) was associated with a 22% higher risk of the combined end point (hazard ratio, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.12-1.35; P < .001). Conclusions and Relevance Longitudinal increase of HbA(1c) was independently associated with higher rates of cardiovascular events in patients with type 2 diabetes and multivessel CAD.
- Revascularization Strategies in Patients with Diabetes and Acute Coronary Syndromes(2022) SCUDELER, Thiago L.; GODOY, Lucas C.; HOXHA, Tedi; KUNG, Andrew; MORENO, Pedro R.; FARKOUH, Michael E.Purpose of Review To review the current evidence for coronary revascularization in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) in the setting of an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Recent Findings In patients with DM and stable multivessel ischemic heart disease, coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) has been observed to be superior to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in long-term follow-up, leading to lower rates of all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction, and repeat revascularization. In the ACS setting, PCI remains the most frequently performed procedure. In patients with an ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), primary PCI should be the revascularization method of choice, whenever feasible. Controversy still exists regarding when and how to deal with possible residual lesions. In the non-ST-segment-elevation (NSTE) ACS setting, although there are no data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs), recent observational data and sub-analyses of randomized studies have suggested that CABG may be the preferred approach for patients with DM and multivessel coronary disease. There is a paucity of RCTs evaluating revascularization strategies (PCI and CABG) in patients with DM and ACS. CABG may be a viable strategy, leading to improved outcomes, especially following NSTE-ACS.
- 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, RobertoBackground: 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.
- Surgical and percutaneous revascularization outcomes based on SYNTAX I, II, and residual scores: a long-term follow-up study(2021) MARTINS, Eduardo Bello; HUEB, Whady; BROWN, David L.; SCUDELER, Thiago Luis; LIMA, Eduardo Gomes; REZENDE, Paulo Cury; SOARES, Paulo Rogerio; GARZILLO, Cibele Larrosa; LINHARES FILHO, Jaime Paula Pessoa; BATISTA, Daniel Valente; RAMIRES, Jose Antonio Franchini; KALIL FILHO, RobertoBackground The objective of this study was to evaluate the association of SYNTAX scores I, II, and residual with cardiovascular outcomes of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and compare both procedures in a long-term follow-up. Methods This is a retrospective single-center study from the MASS registry at the Heart Institute of the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil in which 969 patients with stable coronary artery disease undergoing CABG (559) or PCI (410) were included. We assessed the SYNTAX scores I, II and residual in both interventions. Clinical endpoints were the first occurrence of a composite of overall death, myocardial infarction, stroke, or repeat revascularization (MACCE) and the total occurrence of each component of MACCE. Results In the CABG sample, SSI had a median of 23 (IQR 17-29.5), median SSII of 25.4 (IQR 19.2-32.8), and median rSS of 2 (IQR 0-6.5); in PCI SSI had a median of 14 (IQR 10-19.1), median SSII of 28.7 (IQR 23-34.2), and median rSS of 4.7 (IQR 0-9). Total of 174 events were documented and CABG patients had a lower rate of MACCE (15.6% vs. 21.2%; adjusted HR 1.98; 95% CI 1.13-3.47; P = 0.016) and repeat revascularization (3.8% vs. 11.5%; adjusted HR 4.35; CI 95% 1.74-10.85; P = 0.002) compared with PCI. No SYNTAX score tertile found a difference in death rate between procedures. In a multivariate analysis, the rSS was an independent predictor for MACCE (HR 1.04; 95% CI 1.01-1.06; P = 0.001). Regarding death, the only independent predictors were ejection fraction and renal function. Conclusion Surgical revascularization resulted in a more complete revascularization and lower rates of major cardiac or cerebrovascular events in a long-term follow-up. Also, grading the incompleteness of revascularization through the residual SYNTAX score identified a higher event rate, suggesting that complete revascularization is associated with a better prognosis.
