Relation of Major Depression to Survival After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
In conclusion, we found a strong and significant association between depression and long-term survival in patients with established ischemic heart disease who underwent CABG. Depression was also associated with an increased risk for a combination of death or rehospitalization for heart failure, myocardial infarction, or stroke.

Clinical outcomes of hybrid coronary revascularization versus coronary artery bypass surgery in patients with diabetes mellitus
Background: Hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) involves minimally invasive left internal mammary artery to left anterior descending coronary artery grafting combined with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of non–left anterior descending vessels. The safety and efficacy of HCR among diabetic patients are unknown.Methods: Patients with diabetes were included who underwent HCR at a US academic center between October 2003 and September 2013. These patients were matched 1:5 to similar patients treated with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using a propensity score (PS)-matching algorithm. Conditional logistic...

Prevalence and impact of carotid disease in adult Saudi patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass surgery on early postoperative outcome
The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of carotid disease in our Saudi population undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery and to determine its impact on stroke and early postoperative outcome. A total of 3197 consecutive adult patients underwent major cardiac surgery in our center between January 2002 and December 2012. Of these, 3150 had preoperative duplex scanning, and out of these, 210 patients (6.6%) had significant carotid artery disease defined as ≥75% stenosis (Group A), whereas 2940 (94.4%) were free from carotid artery disease (Group B). Both groups were compared for the presence of preoperative ri...

Comparison of the incidence of postoperative neurologic complications after on-pump versus off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in high-risk patients: A meta-analysis of 11 studies
Neurological complications, such as stroke and transient ischemic attack, are major adverse cardiac events (MACE) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and markedly reduce patient short-term and long-term survival [1]. Farkouh et al. found that the 5-year rate of stroke was significantly higher after CABG than after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with diabetes and multivessel coronary artery disease [2]. Thus, strategies to reduce neurological complications after CABG can improve patient outcomes.

Randomized Trial of Stents Versus Bypass Surgery for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease 5-Year Outcomes of the PRECOMBAT Study
ConclusionsDuring 5 years of follow-up, our study did not show significant difference regarding the rate of MACCE between patients who underwent PCI with a sirolimus-eluting stent and those who underwent CABG. However, considering the limited power of our study, our results should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract 166: Developing the Veterans Affairs Cardiac Risk Score Session Title: Poster Session I
Conclusion: We demonstrated that an EHR in a specific population could risk-stratify patients as well those from as organized cohort studies and greatly improve calibration. Further, our finding that the ASCVD score greatly underpredicted in our population, while previous work have reported the ASCVD over-predictind in other cohorts, suggests that rather than arguing about which risk tool is best, our patients may be better served by us focusing on calibrating CV risk tools for our specific patient population using their EHR data.

Abstract 307: Gender Differences in Recurrent Cardiovascular Events Among High-risk Patients With Hyperlipidemia Session Title: Poster Session III
Conclusions: Among high-risk patients (i.e. history of CV events) enrolled in US health plans, women were more likely to have a subsequent CV event and multiple CV events sooner than men. Further research is needed to ascertain whether the gender differences might reflect differences in the intensity of treatment for hyperlipidemia between men and women.

Surgical Versus Percutaneous Coronary Revascularization for Multivessel Disease in Diabetic Patients With Non-ST-Segment-Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome: Analysis From the Acute Catheterization and Early Intervention Triage Strategy Trial Coronary Artery Disease
Conclusions— In the large-scale ACUITY trial, diabetic patients with acute coronary syndrome and multivessel disease treated with PCI rather than CABG had less bleeding and acute kidney injury, greater need for repeat revascularization procedures, and comparable rates of myocardial infarction, stroke, and death through 1-year follow-up. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00093158.

Impact of prasugrel pretreatment and timing of coronary artery bypass grafting on clinical outcomes of patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: from the ACCOAST study
Conclusions In ACCOAST, early (<2.98 days) surgical revascularization carried increased risk of bleeding and ischemic complications without affecting all-cause mortality through 30 days. Baseline troponin and prasugrel pretreatment did not impact ischemic clinical outcomes.

Impact of anemia on long-term outcomes in patients treated with first and second-generation drug-eluting stents Katowice-Zabrze Registry.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with anemia is significant higher risk of death in the 12-month follow-up, while anemia has no impact on the incidence of MI, repeat revascularization, and stroke. There is no advantage DES II over DES I generation in terms of MACCE and TVR in patients with anemia. PMID: 26575311 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
