Abstract 328: Cardiovascular Disease Associated with Ability to Achieve Renal Transplant and Post-Transplant Adverse Events Session Title: Poster Session III
Conclusions: CVD is common in patients listed for renal transplant. CAD is independently associated with lower odds of receiving a transplant. CAD and rEF are independently associated with increased hazard of post-transplant death or graft failure. Future efforts should focus measures to optimize outcomes in patients with CVD awaiting transplant.

Abstract 263: Incidence of Recurrent Cardiovascular Events and Disease Burden Among High-Risk Patients with Hyperlipidemia Session Title: Poster Session II
Conclusions: CV event-related risk and long-term costs are significantly greater among high-risk patients with shorter time intervals between recurrent CV events. Underutilization of LLTs in these patients highlights the need for improving clinical management and treatment options for these patients.

Abstract 372: Health Outcomes Associated With Triple Antiplatelet Therapy for the Secondary Prevention of Atherothrombotic Events Session Title: Poster Session III
Vorapaxar is a protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) antagonist indicated for the reduction of atherothrombotic cardiovascular (CV) events in patients with a history of myocardial infarction (MI) or with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), based on the findings of the TRA 2°P-TIMI 50 trial for patients without a history of stroke or transient ischemic attack. This analysis evaluated the health outcomes of triple antiplatelet therapy with vorapaxar when added to a standard care regimen of clopidogrel plus aspirin (ASA) in comparison with standard care alone, for patients without a history of transient ischemic attack or ...

Abstract 307: Gender Differences in Recurrent Cardiovascular Events Among High-risk Patients With Hyperlipidemia Session Title: Poster Session III
Conclusions: Among high-risk patients (i.e. history of CV events) enrolled in US health plans, women were more likely to have a subsequent CV event and multiple CV events sooner than men. Further research is needed to ascertain whether the gender differences might reflect differences in the intensity of treatment for hyperlipidemia between men and women.

Perfect Storm: Concurrent Stress and Depressive Symptoms Increase Risk of Myocardial Infarction or Death Original Articles
Conclusions— Our results provide initial support for a psychosocial perfect storm conceptual model; the confluence of depressive symptoms and stress on medical prognosis in adults with coronary heart disease may be particularly destructive in the shorter term.

Conflicting Results Between Randomized Trials and Observational Studies on the Impact of Proton Pump Inhibitors on Cardiovascular Events When Coadministered With Dual Antiplatelet Therapy: Systematic Review Original Articles
Conclusions— Large, well-conducted observational studies of PPIs and randomized controlled trials of omeprazole seem to provide conflicting results for the effect of PPIs on cardiovascular outcomes when coadministered with DAPT. Prospective trials that directly compare pharmacodynamic parameters and clinical events among specific PPI agents in patients with unstable angina/non–ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction treated with DAPT are warranted.

Age-Specific Performance of the Revised Cardiac Risk Index for Predicting Cardiovascular Risk in Elective Noncardiac Surgery Original Articles
Conclusions— In a nationwide unselected cohort, the performance of the RCRI was similar to that of the original cohort. Having ≥1 risk factor was of moderate sensitivity, but high negative predictive value for all ages.

Functional Disability and Cognitive Impairment After Hospitalization for Myocardial Infarction and Stroke Original Articles
Conclusions— In this population-based cohort, most MI and stroke hospitalizations were associated with significant increases in functional disability at the time of the event and in the decade afterward. Survivors of MI and stroke warrant screening for functional disability over the long-term.

{beta}-Blockers and Cardiovascular Events in Patients With and Without Myocardial Infarction: Post Hoc Analysis From the CHARISMA Trial Original Articles
Conclusions— β-blocker use in patients with prior MI but no heart failure was associated with a lower composite cardiovascular outcome driven by lower risk of recurrent MI with no difference in mortality. However, β-blocker use was not associated with lower cardiovascular events in those without MI, with a suggestion of inferior outcome with regard to stroke risk.
