Search and rescue helicopter-assisted transfer of ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients from an island in the Baltic Sea: results from over 100 rescue missions
Conclusions In this small population of STEMI patients from a remote island, airborne transfer appears feasible and safe, and their 30-day mortality after pPCI comparable with that of the mainland population despite inherent reperfusion delay exceeding guidelines.

Surgical revascularization for patients with diabetes: Do all roads lead to Rome?
The BARI 2D trial (Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation 2 Diabetes Trial)1 randomly allocated patients with type 2 diabetes and stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and evidence of myocardial ischemia to undergo, at the discretion of the treating physician, either early revascularization with a percutaneous intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with optimal medical therapy (OMT), or OMT alone. Patients in the OMT group were also randomly assigned to insulin-sensitizing strategy (metformin and thiazolidinedione) or an insulin-providing strategy (insulin or secretagogue.) The 5-year follo...

264 * results of total arterial versus conventional versus hybrid myocardial revascularisation: a propensity match analysis of long-term follow-up
Conclusion: Total arterial revascularisation provides improved outcomes at mid-term follow-up compared with conventional or hybrid revascularisation. The latter technique is particularly associated with a significantly higher incidence of late myocardial infarction and repeat revascularisation.

Medtronic Sponsors American Diabetes Association Educational Campaign "Make the Link" for 2nd Year
To help educate people about this connection with heart disease, and provide materials to help with prevention, as well as treatment, Medtronic has announced that it is continuing its sponsorship of the American Diabetes Association's Make the Link! Diabetes, Heart Disease and Stroke initiative for a second year. The "Make the Link" website has a series of downloadable information packets to help educate people about diabetes and coronary artery disease (CAD).

Long-term follow-up results in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents: results from a single high-volume PCI centre
Conclusions PCI patients with STEMI had the worst hospital and long-term prognosis. The mortality rate after hospital increased markedly in patients with NSTE-ACS. SESs seem to be more effective than PESs.

Clinical Outcome of Diabetic Patients Treated by Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Using Drug-Eluting and Bare Metal Stents
Conclusions In non-selected diabetic patients the long-term clinical outcome was worse for patients treated with BMS. After adjusting for confounding variables, the use of DES was not an independent predictor of reduced MACE.

Changes in the Population Profile and Outcomes of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in the Angiocardio Registry
Conclusions In this large cohort, substancial changes occurred in the characteristics of patients treated by PCI in the last 6 years. This more complex scenario was associated to a slight increase of periprocedural myocardial infarctions, but not to other in-hospital clinical adverse events.

Myocardial infarction in older than 75 years: An increasing population. CASTUO study
Conclusions Patients older than 75 years with acute myocardial infarction had lower survival and were treated with fewer beta-blockers, statins and angioplasty, indications that are associated with lower mortality.

0120: B-type Nt-proBNP as a marker for contrast induced nephropathy in patients with primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
Conclusion From this large contemporary prospective study, our work suggests that Nt-proBNP levels at admission could help to identify patients at risk of CIN beyond traditional risk factors.

Impact of Type 1 and 2 Diabetes Mellitus on Long-Term Outcomes After CABG ∗
It is well-established both that the prevalence of diabetes mellitus (DM) is rising rapidly in the developed world and that its presence is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death (1). Over the last decade, it also has become increasingly clear that for patients with diabetes who require coronary artery revascularization, in addition to optimal medical therapy, that the results of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are superior to percutaneous coronary intervention in terms of significant reductions in mortality, myocardial infarction, and the need for repeat interventions but at the cost of a sl...

Heart rate and use of β-blockers in Mexican stable outpatients with coronary artery disease.
CONCLUSIONS: In a large proportion of Mexican patients with stable coronary disease the HR remain elevated, >70bpm, even with the use of β-blockers; this requires further attention. PMID: 25921309 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Sex-related differences after contemporary primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
CONCLUSION: In our consecutive unselected patient population, women had similar 1-year outcomes to men matched for age and diabetes, after contemporary primary PCI for STEMI, despite having a higher risk profile at baseline. PMID: 25937358 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

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.
