Does Treatment of Impaired Glucose Tolerance Improve Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients with Previous Myocardial Infarction?
ConclusionAlthough voglibose effectively treated IGT, no additional benefits for cardiovascular events in patients with previous MI and IGT were observed. Voglibose may not be a contributing therapy to the secondary prevention in patients with MI and IGT.Trial RegistrationClinicaltrials.gov number: NCT00212017

Five Year Trends of Critical Care Practice and Outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS: Analyses of patients, practices, and outcomes from a large geographically dispersed sample of adult ICUs revealed trends of increasing age and acuity, higher rates of adherence to best practice, use of non-invasive mechanical ventilation and decreased use of antimicrobials, transfusions, and duration of renal replacement therapies. Acuity adjusted LOS and in hospital mortality decreased.

Impact of elevated glycosylated hemoglobin on hospital outcome and 1 year survival of primary isolated coronary artery bypass grafting patients
Conclusions This study showed that HbA1c is a good predictor of in-hospital morbidity. It worth devoting time and effort to decrease HbA1c level below 7% to decrease possible postoperative complications.

Risk Factors of On-Pump Conversion during Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft.
Conclusion: Patients who undergo OPCABG and have CHF or a lower EF (<35%) are more likely to undergo on-pump conversion, while preoperative BB administration could help prevent conversions from OPCABG to on-pump CABG.

Efficacy and Efficiency of Perioperative Stellate Ganglion Blocks in Cardiac Surgery: A Pilot Study
Nationally, postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) occurs in up to 40% of patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), 50% of patients after valve surgery, 64% of patients after mitral valve and CABG, and 49% after aortic valve replacement.1 Atrial fibrillation worsens a patient ’s hemodynamic status and increases the risk of congestive heart failure, embolic events, and longer intensive care unit stays, leading to increased patient morbidity and strain on financial resources. In the United States, POAF carries a higher risk of stroke, worsened survival, and an additional 4.9 days and $10,000 to $11,500 in hospital stay costs.

The impact of previous percutaneous coronary interventions on the course and clinical outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting.
CONCLUSIONS: "Stent-loaded" patients undergo more time-consuming coronary artery bypass grafting with higher number of grafts. Furthermore, they have higher long-term mortality, but similar grafts patency and in-hospital mortality/morbidity.

Add-On Antihypertensive Medications to Angiotensin-Aldosterone System Blockers in Diabetes: A Comparative Effectiveness Study.
CONCLUSIONS: Compared with thiazide diuretics, calcium channel blockers were associated with a lower risk of significant kidney events and a similar risk of cardiovascular events.

The Rural Inpatient Mortality Study: Does Urban-Rural County Classification Predict Hospital Mortality in California?
CONCLUSION: Hospitals in medium-sized metro counties are associated with unfavorable Medicare mortality ratings, but current methods to assign mortality ratings may hinder fair comparisons. Patient transfers from rural locations to regional medical centers may contribute to these results, a potential factor that future research should examine.

International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness with Medical and Invasive Approaches (ISCHEMIA) trial: Rationale and design
Conclusions ISCHEMIA will provide new scientific evidence regarding whether an invasive management strategy improves clinical outcomes when added to optimal medical therapy in patients with SIHD and moderate or severe ischemia.

The effect of prehospital P2Y12 receptor inhibition in primary percutaneous coronary intervention for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: the ATLANTIC-Elderly analysis.
CONCLUSIONS: Elderly patients who represented one sixth of the patients randomized in the ATLANTIC trial, had less successful mechanical reperfusion and a six-fold increase in mortality at 30 days, likely due to comorbidities and possible undertreatment. The effect of early ticagrelor was consistent irrespective of age.

Differences in management and outcomes for men and women with ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
CONCLUSION: Women with STEMI are less likely to receive invasive management, revascularisation, or preventive medication at discharge. The reasons for these persistent differences in care require investigation.

MicroRNA 199a Is Downregulated in Patients After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery and Is Associated with Increased Levels of Sirtuin 1 (SIRT 1) Protein and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events at 3-Year Follow-Up.
CONCLUSIONS Altered expression of miR-199a in myocardial tissue was found to be associated with SIRT 1 upregulation in patients with CAD undergoing CABG and was associated with an increased MACCEs rate at mid-term follow-up.

In-Hospital Outcomes of Chronic Total Occlusion Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease.
CONCLUSIONS: CKD is common among patients undergoing CTO-PCI. High success rates can be achieved in patients with decreased glomerular filtration rate, but CKD may be associated with higher in-hospital mortality.
