Abstract 251: Risk Factors for Recurrence of Cardiovascular Events Following Acute Coronary Syndrome: Longitudinal Analysis from 2006-2011 Poster Session III
Conclusion: Following an ACS event, patients with pre-admission statin use or a prior CABG had decreased risk, while older patients or those with baseline comorbidities had increased risk of an adverse CV event occurring sooner. Ultimately, identifying high-risk ACS subgroups may facilitate tailored and more aggressive treatment to improve outcomes.

Influence of aerobic training on neurohormonal and hemodynamic responses to head-up tilt test and on autonomic nervous activity at rest and after exercise in patients after bypass surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: Aerobic training improved neurohormonal and hemodynamic responses to head-up tilt test and favorably modified sympatho-vagal balance in low risk post-CABG patients.

Atrial fibrillation among Medicare beneficiaries hospitalized with sepsis: Incidence and risk factors
Background: Newly diagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF) during severe sepsis is associated with increased risks of in-hospital stroke and mortality. However, the prevalence, incidence, and risk factors associated with AF during the sepsis syndromes are unclear.Methods: We identified patients with preexisting, newly diagnosed, or no AF in a nationally representative 5% sample of Medicare beneficiaries hospitalized with sepsis between 2004 and 2007. We identified multivariable-adjusted demographic and clinical characteristics associated with development of newly diagnosed AF during a sepsis hospitalization.Results: A total of 6...

Association of gender with morbidity and mortality after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting. A propensity score matched analysis
Abstract: Introduction: There is conflicting evidence about the impact of gender on outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods: We performed a multivariate logistic regression and propensity score matched analyses in 13,115 patients (75% men) who underwent CABG between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 2009. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included post-operative respiratory failure, stroke, myocardial infarction, sternal and leg wound infections, atrial fibrillation (AF), renal failure, need for postoperative intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support, and length of hospit...

Development and Validation of a Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Model in Patients With Established Coronary Artery Disease
In conclusion, in patients with established coronary artery disease, the risk of cardiovascular mortality during longer term follow-up can be adequately predicted using the clinical characteristics available at baseline. However, the prediction of nonfatal outcomes, both separately and combined with fatal outcomes, poses major challenges for clinicians and model developers.

Medium-term neurological complications after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting with and without aortic manipulation
ConclusionAlthough there was no difference in the incidence of immediate postoperative neurological complications, there were fewer medium-term neurological complications in OPCAB cases without aortic manipulation.

Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Two Rivaroxaban Doses in Acute Coronary Syndrome (from ATLAS ACS 2–TIMI 51)
In conclusion, the 2 doses of rivaroxaban reduced cardiovascular events in patients with recent acute coronary syndromes treated with antiplatelet therapies; however, the 2.5-mg dose was associated with lower mortality and fewer bleeding complications than the 5-mg dose. Thus, the addition of rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily offers a more favorable balance of efficacy and safety in patients with recent acute coronary syndromes.

Comparison by Meta-Analysis of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients With a Mean Age of ≥70 Years
A paucity of published data evaluating the outcomes of older patients (age ≥70 years) undergoing revascularization for unprotected left main coronary artery disease is available. We performed aggregate data meta-analyses of the clinical outcomes (all-cause mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization, and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events at 30 days and 12 and 22 months) in studies comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with a mean age of ≥70 years and unprotected left main coronary artery disease. A compre...

Effect of ticagrelor on the outcomes of patients with prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery: Insights from the PLATelet inhibition and patient outcomes (PLATO) trial
Conclusions: Prior-CABG patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome are a high-risk cohort for death and recurrent cardiovascular events but have a lower risk for major bleeding. Similar to the results in no-prior-CABG patients, ticagrelor was associated with a reduction in ischemic events without an increase in major bleeding.

The need to know crude event rates in meta-analysis
Numerous reports have recently been aimed at comparing outcomes between on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Among these, the meta-analysis by Palmerini et al compared percutaneous coronary intervention with CABG using a network design that included 1 patient group receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (n = 4,653) and 2 patient groups in whom CABG was performed either on-pump (n = 10,957) or off-pump (n = 7,119). The rate of stroke at 30 days was the main end point.

The Morbidity and Mortality Outcomes of Indigenous Australian Peoples after Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: The Influence of Geographic Remoteness
Conclusion: Indigenous Australian peoples were at greater risk for prolonged ventilation and combined morbidity outcome, and experienced poorer survival in the longer term. Higher mortality risk among Indigenous Australians was evident even after controlling for remoteness and accessibility to services.

Usefulness and limitations of the invasive coronary strategy in nonagerians.
CONCLUSIONS: Angiography is feasible in nonagenarians by radial approach without failures and with a reduced rate of complications. PCI was indicated in about half of the cases. PCI may be proposed in nonagerians with a high success rate, and an acceptable risk of local and general complications.

Health related quality of life in coronary patients and its association with their cardiovascular risk profile: Results from the EUROASPIRE III survey
Conclusion: Overall, a large heterogeneity was observed in HRQoL values between countries and patient groups. There seems to be a significant association between quality of life and patient characteristics with lifestyle risk factors as important determinants of HRQoL.
