Evaluating Preoperative Intravenous Iron and Erythropoietin Treatment and Outcomes in Cardiac Surgery Patients
CONCLUSIONS: Infection (P = 0.258), mortality rate (P = 0.440), and RBC utilization (P = 0.469) in the two groups of injection and non-injection were not significantly different.PMID:37645003 | PMC:PMC10461381 | DOI:10.5812/aapm-130899

Ultrasound examination of the carotid artery for improved prediction of cardiovascular events and the effect of statin treatment in advanced atherosclerosis : An observational study
CONCLUSION: The prediction of cardiovascular events was better with plaque burden measurements than with the PROCAM score. Treatment with statins in subjects with advanced carotid atherosclerosis (types III-IV b findings on ultrasound) significantly improved the prognosis in a nonrandomized observational study.PMID:37402837 | DOI:10.1007/s00059-023-05197-z

Investigation of Combined Carotid Endarterectomy and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Outcomes and Adverse Event Risk Factors in the Vascular Quality Initiative
CONCLUSIONS: Combined CEA and CABG provides excellent long-term mortality prevention in patients with co-existing severe coronary and carotid atherosclerosis. Simultaneous CEA and CABG provides equivalent stroke prevention and long-term survival to both a cohort of patients undergoing coronary revascularization within 5 years of CEA and patients undergoing isolated CEA or CABG in the literature. The two most impactful modifiable risk factors towards long-term stroke and mortality prevention for patients undergoing simultaneous CEA-CABG are patch placement at CEA site and adherence to statin medication therapy.PMID:37303074...

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention vs Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery for Left Main Disease in Patients With and Without Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Pooled Analysis of 4 Randomized Clinical Trials
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: Among largely stable patients undergoing left main revascularization and with predominantly low to intermediate coronary anatomical complexity, those with ACS had higher rates of early death. Nonetheless, rates of all-cause mortality through 5 years were similar with PCI vs CABG in this high-risk subgroup. The relative advantages and disadvantages of PCI vs CABG in terms of early stroke and long-term spontaneous MI and repeat revascularization were consistent regardless of ACS status.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifiers: NCT00114972, NCT00422968, NCT01496651, NCT01205776.PMID:3725659...

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Carotid Artery Stenosis (CAS) Among Cardiac Surgery Patients
CONCLUSION: This study shows a high prevalence of CAS among cardiac surgery patients. In addition, older age, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension were found to be major risk factors for CAS. Gender and weight status were not associated with CAS. Preoperative carotid duplex scan is a useful exam to identify CAS among cardiac surgery patients and, therefore, to predict and reduce postoperative neurological complications.PMID:37200653 | PMC:PMC10186855 | DOI:10.7759/cureus.37634

The Outcomes of Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery after 18 Months-Is There an Influence of the Initial Right Ventricle Diastolic Dysfunction?
CONCLUSIONS: RV diastolic dysfunction in the preoperative period was associated with the development of MACE within 18 months after CABG, and the ratio Et/e't was one of the independent predictors of MACE in a multiple regression analysis. This makes it expedient to include an assessment of not only systolic but also diastolic RV function in the preoperative examination. The inclusion of an assessment of RV diastolic function in the pre-CABG evaluation of patients deserves further study.PMID:36661913 | DOI:10.3390/jcdd10010018

Postdischarge prognostic significance of periprocedural myocardial injury after percutaneous intervention of chronic total occlusion
CONCLUSION: Periprocedural myocardial injury was associated with a significantly higher rate of MACCE and all-cause mortality after 12 months of FU.PMID:36600648 | DOI:10.1136/openhrt-2022-002113

Hyperlipoproteinemia(a) and Severe Coronary Artery Lesion Types
Conclusion: Diffuse atherosclerosis and coronary calcinosis are associated with elevated Lp(a) levels, independent of other risk factors. The risk of MACE in the first year after surgery is significantly higher in patients with diffuse atherosclerosis and coronary calcinosis, which should be considered when prescribing postoperative treatment for such patients.PMID:36359368 | DOI:10.3390/biomedicines10112848

Coronary atherosclerotic burden assessed by SYNTAX scores and outcomes in surgical, percutaneous or medical strategies: a retrospective cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Coronary atherosclerotic burden alone was not associated with significantly increased risk of all-cause mortality. The SSII better discriminates the risk of death.TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ISRCTN66068876.PMID:36137633 | DOI:10.1136/bmjopen-2022-062378

Incidence and predictors of intracranial bleeding after coronary artery bypass graft surgery
CONCLUSIONS: In an unselected nationwide population undergoing CABG, the incidence of ICB was non-negligible and showed a relatively high incidence rate during the early postoperative period. Post-CABG ICB was associated with a high risk of premature death. Further research is needed to stratify high-risk patients and personalize therapeutic decisions for preventing ICB after CABG.PMID:36035927 | PMC:PMC9411799 | DOI:10.3389/fcvm.2022.863590
