Percutaneous coronary intervention versus coronary artery bypass grafting among patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The results of this meta-analysis suggest that CABG is superior to PCI for patients with LVSD. CABG was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality, repeat revascularization, and incidence of myocardial infarction compared with PCI in patients with LVSD.PMID:37363575 | PMC:PMC10289746 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000000634

Echocardiographic Predictors of Atrial Fibrillation after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
ConclusionsThere is no significant difference between the two groups regarding conventional echo parameters, TDI& by speckle tracking technique (LA strain& LVGLS %).However, patients who developed POAF were older,& left main lesions are more likely to have left main lesions.

Perioperative Risk Factors of Atrial Fibrillation Post CABG Surgeries, a Retrospective Non-Randomized Study
ConclusionThe current study found that low ejection fraction, dilated left atrium, hypertension, smoking, old age, male gender, prolonged bypass time, prolonged cross clamping time, renal impairment, previous myocardial infarction, ungrafted dominant right coronary artery, low temperatures on bypass, early ischemic changes postoperative, hypokalemia, use of adrenaline and nor adrenaline, all of these factors were a significant predictors for development of atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery.

Predictors of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: A Prospective Cohort Study
ConclusionThere are a wide range of significant epidemiological, clinical, and operative predictors for the development of post-CABG AF including older age, female gender, large LA diameter, higher CHA2DS2-VASc score, valve replacement and postoperative inotropic support. Nevertheless, further large-scale studies are still needed to confirm our findings.

Impact of time factor and patient characteristics on the efficacy of PCI vs CABG for left main coronary disease: A meta-analysis
Conclusions: The long-term benefit of CABG vs PCI on MACCE in patients with left main coronary disease is consistent across patients with different clinical characteristics. The relative benefit of CABG on MACCE is driven by that of CABG on unplanned revascularization, and becomes greater as time goes on.

Clinical outcomes of multivessel coronary artery disease patients revascularized by robot-assisted vs conventional standard coronary artery bypass graft surgeries in real-world practice
The treatment of patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MVD) by coronary stenting (PCI) and the “gold standard” conventional coronary-artery bypass grafting (C-CABG) has been well explored in the literature. However, the clinical outcomes of robot-assisted CABG (R-CABG) vs C-CABG in MVD patients in real-world practice were unknown. We aimed to study the clinical outcomes of MVD patients who underwent R-CABG (robotic MIDCAB) and C-CABG at our institution between January 2005 and December 2013. A total of 516 MVD patients received CABG were recruited into this study. Among them, 281 patients received R-CAB...

Techniques and approaches for revascularisation of left heart coronary diseases.
Abstract Coronary artery disease and its associated clinical sequelae are a significant medical burden to clinicians and patients. Severe coronary artery disease presenting in the context of acute myocardial ischaemia, or stable plaques causing chronic symptoms despite best conservative and pharmacological intervention, are often amenable to further intervention such as coronary artery bypass grafting. This procedure has been extensively compared to newer and less invasive techniques, such as percutaneous coronary intervention, and other minimally invasive procedures such as robotic or endoscopic techniques. This ...

Should Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Be Considered for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease?
This article is important because of the recent publication of the 5-year results of the EXCEL (Evaluation of XIENCE Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery for Effectiveness of Left Main Revascularization) trial comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with LMCAD of low or intermediate anatomical complexity. The EXCEL trial has ignited a firestorm of controversy. The investigators concluded that there was no significant difference between PCI and CABG in the primary outcome of death or myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke (major adverse cardiac events, MACEs)...

Diabetes mellitus is associated with high sleep-time systolic blood pressure and non-dipping pattern.
Conclusion: DM is independently associated with suboptimal 24-hour BP control. This association is mainly attributed to a high sleep-time systolic BP. PMID: 32208051 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical outcomes and need for intensive care after non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction.
CONCLUSIONS: Complications requiring ICU care were infrequent in a cohort of NSTEMI patients who were routinely admitted to the ICU over a 4-year period. The ACTION risk score had low accuracy in the prediction of complications requiring ICU care in our population. PMID: 32089424 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical outcomes of patients with multivessel coronary artery disease treated with robot-assisted coronary artery bypass graft surgery versus one-stage percutaneous coronary intervention using drug-eluting stents
A number of studies have reported on treatment outcomes of coronary stenting (PCI) for multivessel coronary artery diseases (MVD), and compared them with the conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, the clinical outcomes of robot-assisted CABG (R-CABG) in comparison with PCI in MVD patients have not been investigated. We recruited retrospectively MVD patients receiving R-CABG and PCI with drug-eluting stents for all vessels in one stage between January 2005 and December 2013 at our institution with at least 3 years of outcomes were retrospectively recruited and analyzed. A total of 638 MVD patients w...

The epidemiology of coronary artery bypass surgery in a community hospital: A comparison between 2 periods
During the last decades, the increased number of percutaneous interventions procedures causes a significant change in the profile of patients referred to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We aimed to study changes in patients’ characteristics and procedural outcomes of patients referred to CABG in a community hospital during the first 15 years of the millennium. A historical cohort study of all patients who underwent CABG in Cape Cod Hospital was performed. The period was divided into 2 sub-periods, 2000 to 2008 and 2009 to 2014. Patients’ characteristics and procedure outcomes were compared. Data on age, sex, c...

A 79-year old man with a history of myocardial infarction and coronary artery bypass grafting in 2000, biventricular systolic heart failure with an ejection fraction of 27%, hypertension, persistent atrial fibrillation for which he was taking high-dose aspirin given a previous history of hemorrhagic stroke, stage 3 chronic kidney disease, left cerebellar ischemic stroke, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) placement 5 years previously presented to his local medical facility with a 2-day history of breathlessness, fevers, and chills.
