Outcomes Among Clopidogrel, Prasugrel, and Ticagrelor in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients Who Underwent Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention From the TOTAL Trial
ConclusionsIn this observational analysis of STEMI patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention, ticagrelor was associated with improved outcomes compared with clopidogrel and prasugrel. An appropriately powered randomized trial is needed to confirm these findings.RésuméContexteIl n’existe pas d’analyse robuste comparant les inhibiteurs P2Y12 à prise orale (clopidogrel, prasugrel et ticagrélor) chez les patients ayant subi un infarctus du myocarde avec élévation du segment ST (STEMI) traités par une intervention coronaire percutanée (ICP) primaire. Nous avons entrepris d’évaluer les rés...

Management of Antiplatelet Therapy During Continuous-Flow Left Ventricular Assist Device Support After Thrombotic Hemorrhagic Events
Hemorrhagic or thrombotic events are common complications in heart failure patients with continuous-flow left ventricular assist device (CF-LVAD) support. Aim of this study is to investigate the effect of change in antiplatelet therapy after thrombotic or hemorrhagic events in patients with CF-LVAD support. A total of 231 CF-LVAD patients were included in this study. Patients with CF-LVAD were categorized into three groups: (1) high antiplatelet regimen as control group (aspirin [ASA] 325 mg; n = 115), (2) low antiplatelet regimen (ASA 81 mg; n = 82), started after hemorrhagic complications, and (3) double antiplatelet...

Ticagrelor in patients with heart failure after acute coronary syndromes—Insights from the PLATelet inhibition and patient Outcomes (PLATO) trial
ConclusionsIn patients with ACS, ticagrelor is more efficacious in protecting against new ischemic events and mortality than clopidogrel irrespective of the presence of HF. There is no difference between ticagrelor or clopidogrel treatment in new-onset HF post-ACS.

The association between clopidogrel and 2-oxo-clopidogrel plasma levels and the long-term clinical outcome after acute myocardial infarction
.
CONCLUSION: In patients with acute MI treated with PCI, lower dose-adjusted clopidogrel and dose-adjusted 2-oxo-clopidogrel plasma concentrations were associated with an increased risk of ischemic events.

The association of clopidogrel and 2-oxo-clopidogrel plasma levels and the 40 months clinical outcome after primary PCI
Conclusion Clopidogrel dose-adjusted plasma concentration in STEMI patients, as well as multivessel coronary artery disease, showed significance in predicting an unfavorable composite clinical outcome after 40-month follow-up.

Relationship between Physical Inactivity and Long-term Outcome in Patients Aged ≥80 Years with Acute Coronary Syndrome
In this study, we aimed to investigate association between physical inactivity and allcause mortality in octogenarian patients with ACS. In this study, we included a total of 353 hospitalized patients, aged>80 years, with ACS during the period of 5-year follow-up. The association between physical inactivity and all-cause mortality was analyzed by multivariable Cox aggression. Of the enrolled patients, 132 (37.4%) were defined as physically inactive, and 221 (62.6%) as physically active. Patients with physical inactivity tended to have lower survival rate (21.2% vs. 56.5%,P<0.001) and higher mortality rate (78.8% vs. ...

Temporal changes in treatments and outcomes after acute myocardial infarction among cancer survivors and patients without cancer, 1995 to 2013
CONCLUSIONSAmong CS and NCP with AMI in Ontario, similar improvements in mortality and receipt of treatments were observed between 1995 and 2013. However, compared with NCP, CS had a higher risk of mortality and heart failure. Cancer 2017. © 2017 American Cancer Society.

Current Use of Oral Anticoagulants and Prognostic Analysis in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Coronary Stenting.
CONCLUSIONS: In real-life AF patients undergoing coronary stenting, guideline-recommended VKA was less used. AF patients had adjusted worse prognosis during 12-month follow-up after discharge. It is of utmost importance to improve the current status of oral anticoagulants use.

Pre-treatment clinical assessment in head and neck cancer: United Kingdom National Multidisciplinary Guidelines.
Authors: Robson A, Sturman J, Williamson P, Conboy P, Penney S, Wood H
Abstract
This is the official guideline endorsed by the specialty associations involved in the care of head and neck cancer patients in the UK. This paper provides recommendations on the pre-treatment clinical assessment of patients presenting with head and neck cancer. Recommendations • Comorbidity data should be collected as it is important in the analysis of survival, quality of life and functional outcomes after treatment as well as for comparing results of different treatment regimens and different centres. (R) • Patients with hypertens...

Antiplatelet versus anticoagulation treatment for patients with heart failure in sinus rhythm.
CONCLUSIONS: There is evidence from RCTs to suggest that neither oral anticoagulation with warfarin or platelet inhibition with aspirin is better for mortality in systolic heart failure with sinus rhythm (high quality of the evidence for all-cause mortality and moderate quality of the evidence for non-fatal cardiovascular events and major bleeding events). Treatment with warfarin was associated with a 20% reduction in non-fatal cardiovascular events but a twofold higher risk of major bleeding complications (high quality of the evidence). We saw a similar pattern of results for the warfarin versus clopidogrel comparison (lo...

Impact of Chronic Nitrate Therapy in Patients With Ischemic Heart Failure
Conclusion:
Long-term nitrates use in patients with ischemic HF was associated with higher occurrence of ischemic events, defined as fatal or nonfatal myocardial infarction or stroke. Our results, although from a retrospective analysis, do not support a role for chronic nitrate use in HF.
