Safety and efficacy of non –vitamin K oral anticoagulant for atrial fibrillation patients after percutaneous coronary intervention: A bivariate analysis of the PIONEER AF-PCI and RE-DUAL PCI trial
Conclusions A bivariate analysis that simultaneously characterizes both risk and benefit demonstrates that riva- and dabi-based regimens were both favorable over VKA plus dual antiplatelet therapy among patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing PCI.

I-CARE randomized clinical trial integrating depression and acute coronary syndrome care in low-resource hospitals in China: Design and rationale
Publication date: August 2018Source: American Heart Journal, Volume 202Author(s): Shenshen Li, James A. Blumenthal, Chuan Shi, Danielle Millican, Xian Li, Xin Du, Anushka Patel, Pei Gao, Elizabeth Delong, Pallab K. Maulik, Runlin Gao, Xin Yu, Yangfeng WuAbstractDepression and acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are both common public health challenges. Patients with ACS often develop depression, which in turn adversely affects prognosis. Low-cost, sustainable, and effective service models that integrate depression care into the management of ACS patients to reduce depression and improve ACS outcomes are critically needed. Integ...

Impact of total ischemic time on manual thrombus aspiration benefit during primary percutaneous coronary intervention
ConclusionIn a large registry of STEMI patients, manual TA was not associated with lower risk-adjusted in-hospital all-cause mortality compared with PCI-alone regardless of TIT but was associated with significantly greater risk of MACE. In patients with prolonged TIT, manual TA was associated with higher risk-adjusted MACE rates compared with PCI-alone.

Rationale and Design of the Pemafibrate to reduce cardiovascular outcomes by reducing triglycerides in patients with diabetes (PROMINENT) study
Publication date: Available online 29 September 2018Source: American Heart JournalAuthor(s): Aruna D. Pradhan, Nina P. Paynter, Brendan M. Everett, Robert J. Glynn, Pierre Amarenco, Marshall Elam, Henry Ginsberg, William R. Hiatt, Shun Ishibashi, Wolfgang Koenig, Børge G. Nordestgaard, Jean-Charles Fruchart, Peter Libby, Paul M RidkerAbstractObservational, genetic, and experimental data indicate that triglyceride rich lipoproteins (TRLs) likely participate causally in atherothrombosis. Yet, robust clinical trial evidence that triglyceride (TG) lowering therapy reduces cardiovascular events remains elusive. The selective p...

Yao generalizability of FOURIER to routine practice
ConclusionsOne in seven ASCVD patients in practice would have qualified for FOURIER. The excluded and under-represented populations were at a particularly low or high cardiovascular risk. Statin therapy was under-used and physicians may need to evaluate adherence before adding PCSK9i.

Differences in Statin Utilization and Lipid-Lowering by Race, Ethnicity, and HIV Status in a Real-World Cohort of Persons with Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Uninfected Persons
ConclusionsAmong PWH with statin indication(s), Blacks and Hispanics were less likely than whites to have been prescribed a statin. These racial/ethnic disparities were less pronounced among uninfected persons. There were significant differences in type of statin utilized for PWH compared to uninfected matched controls. Future efforts addressing disparities in CVD prevention among PWH are warranted.
