Prognostic value of gut microbiota-derived metabolites in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction
CONCLUSIONS: Higher plasma PAGln, IS, DCA, TML, and TMAO levels are independently associated with MACEs suggesting that these metabolites may be useful markers for prognosis in patients with STEMI.PMID:36811471 | DOI:10.1016/j.ajcnut.2022.12.013

Combined assessment of frailty and nutritional status can be a prognostic indicator after percutaneous coronary intervention
In conclusion, patients with both frailty and malnutrition had a higher risk of MACEs after PCI than patients with frailty or malnutrition. Post-PCI patients should be evaluated for combined frailty and malnutrition.

Prehabilitation Coming of Age: IMPLICATIONS FOR CARDIAC AND PULMONARY REHABILITATION
While cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation programs traditionally involve exercise therapy and risk management following an event (eg, myocardial infarction and stroke), or an intervention (eg, coronary artery bypass surgery and percutaneous coronary intervention), prehabilitation involves enhancing functional capacity and optimizing risk profile prior to a scheduled intervention. The concept of prehabilitation is based on the principle that patients with higher functional capabilities will better tolerate an intervention, and will have better pre- and post-surgical outcomes. In addition to improving fitness, prehabilitati...

Prognostic significance of the controlling nutritional (CONUT) score in patients with acute coronary syndrome
ConclusionHigher CONUT scores were associated with unfavorable outcomes in patients with ACS. Malnutrition assessed by the CONUT score may provide valuable prognostic information in patients with ACS.

Impact of nutritional index on long-term outcomes of elderly patients with coronary artery disease: sub-analysis of the SHINANO 5  year registry
In this study, patients were categorized into TCBI quartile groups. The primary endpoints were the occurre nce of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including all-cause death, stroke, and myocardial infarction at 5 year. The mean duration of follow up was 4.3 ± 1.7 years. The average patient age was 80.9 ± 4.3 years. MACCE was observed in 61 (40.9%) patients in the low est TCBI quartile group. Kaplan–Meier analysis demonstrated an inverse relationship between MACCE and TCBI (log-lankP <  0.001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that low TCBI significantly predicted the inciden...

Lipoprotein(a) levels are associated with coronary severity but not with outcomes in Chinese patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention
ConclusionLp(a) is an independent predictor of the prevalence of more complex coronary artery lesions (SYNTAX score ≥ 23) in patients with PCI. In addition, our study has shown that Lp(a) has no relationship with long-term cardiovascular outcomes in Chinese patients with PCI.
