Predicting value of serum soluble ST2 and interleukin-33 for risk stratification and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction

Background Acute myocardial infarction （AMI） is a common cardiac emergency with high mortality.Serum soluble ST2 （sST2） is a new emerging biomarker of cardiac diseases.The present study is to investigate the predictive value of sST2 and interleukin-33 （IL-33） for risk stratification and prognosis in patients with AMI.Methods Fifty-nine patients with AMI,whose chief complaint was chest pain or dyspnea,were selected for our study.Physical examination,chest radiograph,electrocardiograph （ECG）,biomarkers of myocardial infarction,NT-proBNP,echocardiography and other relevant examinations were performed to confirm the diagnosis of AMI.Thirty-six healthy people were chosen as the control group.Serum samples from these subjects （patients within 24 hours after acute attack） were collected and the levels of sST2 and IL-33 were assayed by enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay （ELISA） kit.The follow-up was performed on the 7th day,28th day,3rd month and 6th month after acute attack.According to the follow-up results we defined the end of observation as recurrence of AMI or any causes of death.Results Median sST2 level of the control group was 9.38ng/ml and that of AMI patients was 29.06ng/ml.Compared with the control group,sST2 expression in the AMI group was significantly different （P〈0.001）.In contrast,the IL-33 level showed no significant difference between the two groups.Serum sST2 was a predictive factor independent of other variables and may provide complementary information to NT-proBNP or GRACE risk score.IL-33 had no relationship to recurrence of AMI.Both sST2 and the IL-33/sST2 ratio were correlated with the 6-month prognosis; areas under the ROC curve were 0.938 and 0.920 respectively.Conclusions Early in the course （〈24 hours） of AMI,sST2 usually increases markedly.The increase of sST2 has an independent predictive value for the prognosis in AMI patients and provides complementary information to NT-proBNP or GRACE risk score.The IL-33/sST2 ratio correlates with the 6-month prognosis of AMI patients.However,there is no significant relationship between IL-33 and the prognosis of AMI patients.     

Combined treatment with erythropoietin and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor enhances neovascularization and improves cardiac function after myocardial infarction

Background Erythropoietin （EPO） and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor （G-CSF） are both potential novel therapeutics for use after myocardial infarction （MI）.However,their underlying mechanisms remain unclear and the efficacy of monotherapy with EPO or G-CSF is also controversial.Therefore,we investigated the effects of combined treatment with EPO and G-CSF on neovascularization and cardiac function in post-infarction rats and explored the potential mechanisms.Methods Four groups of rats were used：control （saline injection after MI,i.h.）,EPO （a single dose of 5 000 IU/kg after MI,i.h.）,G-CSF （a dose of 50 μg· kg-1· d-1 for 5 days after MI,i.h.）,and both EPO and G-CSF （EPO＋G-CSF,using the same regiment as above）.Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography before and 1 day,7 days,14 days and 21 days after MI.CD34＋/Flk-1＋ cells in the peripheral blood were evaluated by flow cytometry before and 3 days,5 days and 7 days after MI.The infarct area and angiogenesis in the peri-infarct area were analyzed.The mRNA and protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） and stromal-derived factor-1α （SDF-1α） in the peri-infarct area were detected by real-time quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting.Results Compared with the control and monotherapy groups,the EPO＋G-CSF group had significantly increased CD34＋/ Flk-1＋ endothelial progenitor calls （EPCs）in the peripheral blood （P ＜0.05）,up-regulated VEGF and SDF-1α levels in the peri-infarct region （P ＜0.05）,enhanced capillary density （P ＜0.05）,reduced infarct size （P ＜0.05） and improved cardiac structure and function （P ＜0.05）.G-CSF alone did not dramatically increase EPCs in the peripheral blood,enhance capillary density in the peri-infarct area or reduce infarct size compared with the control group.Conclusions Combined treatment with EPO and G-CSF increased EPCs mobilization,up-regulated VEGF and SDF-1α levels in the post-infarction microenvironment,subsequently enhanced neovascularization in the peri-infarct region and reduced infarct size.All factors contributed to its beneficial effects on cardiac function in post-infarction rats.     

Pre-hospital care-seeking in patients with acute myocardial infarction and subsequent quality of care in Beijing

Background Cumulative evidence demonstrates that primary percutaneous coronary intervention（PCI）is a mperfusion strategy for ST-elevation myocardial Infarction（STEMI）.This study was undertaken to evaluate the pre-hospital care-seeking pathway and subsequent care quality in patients with STEMI in the Beijing health care system,which offers patients a choice between seeking care in a small community hospital（SH group）or a large hospital（LH group）.Methods Between January 1 and December 31,2006, a cross-sectional and multicenter survey was conducted in 11 hospitals qualified as tertiary centers in Beijing and included consecutive patients with STEMI admitted within 24 hours after onset of symptoms.Results Among the 566 patients interviewed,28.3%first arnved at a small community hospitaI and were transferred to large hospitals with the ability to perform primary PCI.The median total pre-hospital delay in the SH group（n=160）was significantly longer than in the LH group（n=406）（225 vs.120 minutes,P〈0.001）.Multivariate analysis showed that interpreting symptoms to non-cardiac origin（OR,1.996;95%CI： 1.264-3.155）,absence of history of myocardial infarction（OR,1.595;95%CI：1.086-3.347）,non-health insuranca coverage（OR,1.931;95%Cl：1.079-3.012）and absence of sense of impending doom （OR,4.367;95%CI：1.279-1 4.925） were independent predictors for choosing small hospitals.After adjusting for demographics and medical history,patients in the SH group were 1.698 times（95% CI： 1.1 82-3.661） less likely to receive primary PCI compared with those in the LH group. Conclusions Above one fourth of the STEMI patients in Beijing experienced inter-hospital transfer.Factors including symptoms interpretation,symptoms,history of myocardial infarcUon,and insurance coverage were associated with the patients＇pre-hospital care-seeking pathway.The patients who were transferred had longer pre-hospital delays and were less Iikely to receive primary PCI.     

Matrix metalloproteinase-8 inhibitors mitigate sepsis-induced myocardial injury in rats

Background Sepsis-induced myocardial injury （SIMI） is caused by a variety of mechanisms. The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of metalloproteinase-8 （MMP-8） on SIMI and its mechanisms in rats. Methods Forty male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups： MMP-8 inhibitor （M81）, dexamethasone （DEX）, sepsis, and sham groups. The sepsis model was established by cecal ligation and puncture （CLP）. Rats in the M81 group immediately received an intraperitoneal injection of M81 （0.1 mg/kg） after CLP. Rats in the DEX group immediately received an intraperitoneal （IP） injection of DEX （2 mg/kg）. Rats in the sepsis and sham groups received intraperitoneal injections of normal saline. Rats were sacrificed 12 hours after CLP. Paraffin sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin to observe the myocardium. The myocardial ultrastructure was observed with transmission electron microscopy. MMP-8, tumor necrosis factor-Q （TNF-a）, and interleukin-113 （IL-113） were detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of MMP-8 was measured by Western blotting. TNF-a and IL-113 levels in serum and myocardial tissue were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results Compared with the sham group, the myocardium in the sepsis group was seriously injured. MMP-8, TNF-α and IL-1β expression was higher in the sepsis group than in the sham group, Treatment with M81 or DEX, however, attenuated sepsis induced histopathological changes in the heart, and was associated with significant reductions in serum and myocardial levels of TNF-a and IL-113 （P 〈0.05）. M81 significantly inhibited MMP-8 expression in myocardial tissue （P 〈0.05）. In addition, treatment with DEX was not associated with a change in myocardial levels of MMP-8 （P 〉0.05）. Conclusion MMP-8 inhibitor attenuated myocardial injury in septic rats, which might be related to reduced expression of TNF-α and IL-1β.     

Acute myocardial infarction mimicking squamous cell lung cancer with bone metastases due to hypercalcemia: a case report

Acute myocardial infarction （AMI）, the most severe .coronary artery disease, is one of the most frequent cardiac emergencies, and early diagnosis and treatment are very important to decrease the subsequent cardiac adverse events such as malignant arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death. But in fact, lots of diseases are similar to AMI in clinical practice, of which the most common are myocarditis, pulmonary embolism in department of cardiology. Here we report a case of AMI-like squamous cell lung cancer with bone metastases.     

Gender disparity in early death after ST-elevation myocardial infarction

Background Females with acute myocardial infarction （AMI） have a higher risk of adverse outcomes because of receiving less evidence-based medical care. Our aim was to investigate the gender disparity in early death after ST- elevation myocardial infarction （STEMI） in the current era. Methods A total of 1429 consecutive patients with STEMI in the Liaoning district were analyzed. We compared hospital care and cardiac event data by sex for in-patients with acute STEMI within 24 hours of symptom onset. Results In the emergency reperfusion group （n=754）, in-hospital mortality occurred in 4.2% of the males and 11.2% of the females （P=-0.001）. In the non-emergency reperfusion group （n=675）, in-hospital mortality occurred in 13.0% of the males and 22.9% of the females （P=-0.001）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed female sex as an independent risk factor of death for STEMI patients during hospitalization （OR=1.691, P=0.007）. After controlling for patients who died within 24 hr after admission, female sex was no longer an independent risk factor （OR=1.409, P=0.259）. Conclusion Female sex was an independent risk factor for in-hospital mortality of STEMI patients, which is explained by an excess of very early deaths.     

Recurrent acute myocardial infarction after 32 months: very late stent thrombosis after sirolimus-eluting stent implantation

Recent analyses have suggested that implantation of drug-eluting stents （DES） is associated with a higher rate of very late stent thrombosis when compared with bare metal stents （BMS）. According to Academic Research Consortium （ARC） definition,1 very late stent thrombosis refers to events occurring more than 12 months following stent placement. This complication is evident with sirolimus-eluting stents （SES） as well as polymer-based paclitaxel-eluting stents （PES）,     

Feasibility of using 6F angiographic catheters for primary percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute myocardial infarction

The transradial access has been used for percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI） for more than 10 years. Many studies have confirmed several advantages of a radial route over the traditional transfemoral approach, some of which include a decreased incidence of access site complications, an earlier ambulation after the procedure which helps make patients more comfortable after the procedure.4-SHowever, the radial artery is easier to spasm as it is smaller than the femoral artery. This kind of phenomenon often happens when shifting from angiographic catheters to guiding catheters.     

Twenty-year trends in major cardiovascular risk factors in hospitalized patients with acute myocardial infarction in Beijing

Background Hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolaemia and current smoking are the strongest modifiable cardiovascular risk factors for acute myocardial infarction （AMI）. We examined their changing trends over the last 20 years. Methods The clinical data of 3498 patients hospitalized in Peking University People＇s Hospital with AMI from 1991 to 2010 were used. Information was collected regarding to patients＇ demographic data, cardiovascular risk factors （hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia and current smoking）. To assess trends over time in the prevalence of risk factors, we categorized patients into four groups （1991 to 1995, 1996 to 2000, 2001 to 2005 and 2006 to 2010）. Results Highly significant increases were observed in the prevalence of hypertension from 40.8% to 55.6% for males and from 58.0% to 69.0% for females; and diabetes mellitus from 12.9% to 30.8% for males and from 23.0% to 42.3% for females. Similarly, the prevalence of hypercholesterolaemia decreased from 53.1% to 30.7% for males and from 57.0% to 44.0% for females. The prevalence of current smoking decreased in females from 29.0% to 11.1%, but remained unchanged in males. In addition, the proportion of patients with more than three modifiable risk factors increased from 19.0% to 27.1% and the age at onset of AMI extended to younger as well as older individuals. Conclusions The prevalence of hypertension and diabetes mellitus are still increasing in patients with AMI in Beijing and although the prevalence of hypercholesterolaemia and current smoking decreased, high clustering of risk factors were commonly present. These adverse trends show a compelling need for more effective management of cardiovascular risk factors.     

Sevoflurane Versus Propofol for Myocardial Protection in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery： a Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Objective To systematically review randomized controlled trials to compare myocardial protection profiles of sevoflurane with propofol in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting （CABG） surgery. Methods Electronic databases were searched to identify all randomized controlled trials comparing sevoflurane with propofol for protecting myocardium in adult patients undergoing CABG surgery. Two authors independently extracted patients＇ perioperative data, including patients＇ baseline characteristics, surgical variables, and outcome data. For continuous variables, treatment effects were calculated as weighted mean difference （WMD） and 95% confidential interval （C/）. For dichotomous data, treatment effects were calculated as odds ratio （OR） and 95% CI. Each outcome was tested for heterogeneity, and randomized-effects or fixed-effects model was used in the presence or absence of significant heterogeneity （Q test P〈0.05）. Sensitivity analyses were done by examining the influence of statistical model on estimated treatment effects. Publication bias was explored through visual inspection of funnel plots of the outcomes. Statistical significance was defined as P〈0.05. Results Our search yielded 13 studies including 696 patients, and 402 patients were allocated into sevoflurane group and 294 into propofol group. There was no significant difference in postoperative mechanical ventilation time, inotropic support, mortality, myocardial infarction, and atrial fibrillation between the two groups （all P〉0.05）. Patients randomized into sevoflurane group had higher post-bypass cardiac index （WMD=0.39, 95% CI： 0.18 to 0.60, P=0.0003）, lower troponin I level （WMD=-0.82, 95% CI：-0.87 to -0.85, P=0.0002）, lower incidence of myocardial ischemia （OR=0.37, 95% CI： 0.16 to 0.83, P=0.02）, shorter ICU and hospital stay length （WMD=-10.99, 95% CI： -12.97 to -9.01, P〈0.00001; WMD=-0.78, 95% CI： -1.00 to -0.56, P〈0.00001, respectively）. Conclusion This meta-analysis has found some evidence showing that sevoflurane has better myocardial protection than propofol in CABG surgery.     

Association between high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in a community based population

Background N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP） and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T （hs-cTnT） are excellent biomarkers for detecting heart failure and subclinical myocardial injury.However,it remains unclear whether subclinical myocardial injury is associated with NT-proBNP elevation in a community based population.Methods In a community based study,levels of hs-cTnT and of NT-proBNP were determined in 1 497 participants older than 45 years.The lower detection limit of the hs-cTnT assay used in the present study was 0.003 ng/ml.The association of hs-cTnT levels and NT-proBNP levels was analyzed.Results When the subjects with undetectable （〈0.003 ng/ml）,intermediate （0.003-0.014 ng/ml）,and elevated （≥0.014 ng/ml） levels of hs-cTnT were compared （r=0.175,P 〈0.001）,a strong association between the hs-cTnT levels and NT-proBNP levels was observed （β=-0.206,P 〈0.001; β=-0.118,P 〈0.001,respectively）.In multivariable analyses,older age and hs-cTnT were positively and independently associated with NT-proBNP levels （β=0.341,P 〈0.001; β=0.143,P 〈0.001,respectively）,and male gender and the levels of eGFR were inversely and independently associated with NT-proBNP levels.When the subjects with normal or elevated NT-proBNP were analyzed separately,the hs-cTnT level was not an independent predictor for the NT-proBNP level in the normal NT-proBNP group,whereas the hs-cTnT level was the only independent predictor for NT-proBNP level in the elevated NT-proBNP group （β=0.399,P 〈0.01）.Conclusions In this community based population,NT-proBNP elevation was common.In addition to female gender and older age,subclinical myocardial injury indicated by the hs-cTnT level was another important factor in NT-proBNP elevation.     

Association of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis with major adverse cardiovascular events after acute myocardial infarction

Background Patients with atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis （ARAS） are in substantial risk of cardiovascular adverse events.We investigated whether myocardial infarction patients with ARAS are in additional risk of cardiovascular events.Methods In this retrospective study,257 patients with type 1 myocardial infarction were enrolled.Median follow-up was 42 months.Composite endpoint events are analyzed by definitions of ARAS as ≥50% or ≥70% diameter stenosis.Results Defining ARAS as ≥70% diameter stenosis,ARAS was a significant predictor for composite endpoint events including death,non-fatal myocardial infarction,ischaemic stroke and intracranial haemorrhage,rehospitalisation for cardiac failure （HR：4.381; 95% Cl：1.770-10.842） by Cox regression analysis,but not for death.Diabetes mellitus was also a significant predictor for composite endpoint events （HR：2.756; 95% Cl：1.295-5.863）.However,defining ARAS ≥50% diameter stenosis,ARAS was no longer a significant predictor for composite endpoint events or death.Conclusions Although not associated with mortality,ARAS ≥70% is associated with major adverse cardiac events after acute myocardial infarction.For prognosis,≥70% diameter stenosis is a more appropriate criteria for ARAS definition than ≥50% diameter stenosis.

Effect of PercuSurge Distal Protection Device in Acute Myocardial Infarction during Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Objective To evaluate the efficiency and safety of PercuSurge DPD in coronary intervention in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing PCI treatment within 72 hours. Methods This was a prospective cohort study of patients with AM. From December 2003 to December 2005, 174 acute myocardial infarction patients who received primary coronary intervention were included into this study. Patients were divided into DPD and control group according to whether Percusurge DPD was attempted during emergency PCI. The basic clinical characteristics, angiographic results, and follow up data before discharge were compared. TIMI flow grades and myocardial blush grades were performed in all cases after emergency PCI. Results The device was successfully deployed in 78 of 87 patients, the visible red, white debris or red clastic thrombosis were aspirated in 72 of 78 patients in DPD group. Post- PCI Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction （TIMI） grades and myocardial blush grades were significantly higher in DPD group than in control group. Post-PCl no-reflow, distal embolization and 30-day major adverse cardiac events were significantly higher in control group than in DPD group, whereas TIMI grades, myocardial blush grades and minimal lumen diameter were significantly increased after using the export aspiration. Conclusion PercuSurge DPD can be used safely and effectively in coronary intervention in the thrombus laden arteries such as AMI.     

Combined use of transmyocardial laser revascularization and endothelial progenitor cells enhances neovascularization and regional contractility in a canine model of ischemic hearts

The purpose of this study was to determine the combined effect of transmyocardial laser re- vascularization （TMLR） and the implantation of endothelial progenitor cells （EPCs） on cardiac function of ischemic hearts in canines. The left anterior descending artery （LAD） was occluded to establish the canine model of acute myocardial infarct （AMI）. Four weeks later, the animals were randomly divided into four groups： TMLR group, in which transmyocardial laser-induced channels were established at the ischemic region; EPCs＋TMLR group, in which EPCs were locally transplanted into laser-induced chan- nels at the ischemic region; EPCs group, in which the EPCs were injected into the ischemic region; con- trol group, in which the AMI animals received neither TMLR nor EPCs. The peripheral blood （50 mL） was sampled in all groups. Mononuclear cells from the peripheral blood were separated and cultured to obtain spindle-shaped attaching （AT） cells in vitro. AT cells were labeled with 1, 1 ＇-dioctadecyl-1 to 3,3, 3＇,3＇-tetramethyl-indocarbocyanine perchlorate （DiI） before injecting into the laser-induced channels or ischemic region. Four weeks after the first operation, TMLR was performed in the TMLR group and EPCs＋TMLR group, and at the same time, the EPCs originating from the AT cells were mixed with cal- cium alginate （CA）. Then the EPCs-CA composites were implanted into myocardial channels induced by laser in the EPCs＋TMLR group, and into the myocardial infarct area in the EPCs group. All dogs underwent echocardiography at second month after LAD occlusion. Finally the samples of myocardium around the LAD were subjected to histochemical and immunohistologic examinations. The results showed there was no significant difference in the diameter of left atrium and ventricle before treatment among all groups （P〉0.05）. Eight weeks after modeling, the regional contractility in the LAD territory in the EPCs＋TMLR group was increased as compared with control group and TMLR group, but there was no significant difference between control group and TMLR group. Neoangiogenesis was observed in the EPCs＋TMLR group, and the fibrosis was seen in the TMLR group. There was no significant dif- ference in neoangiogenesis around the channels induced by laser among EPCs＋TMLR, EPCs and TMLR groups. It was concluded that TMLR combined with EPCs could improve the regional and global cardiac function in AMI, and augment neovascularizaiton in channels of ischemic myocardium induced by laser.     

Impact of Toll-like Receptor 4 Deficiency on Cerebrocardiac Syndrome

In order to investigate the role of Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4） in cerebrocardiac syndrome （CCS）, the partial cerebral ischemia/reperfusion （I/R） models in mice with different TLR4 genotypes were established in the present study. TLR4 wild-type （C3H/HeN） and mutant （C3H/HeJ） mice of 6-8 weeks of age were divided into 4 groups at random： C3H/HeN sham group （n=10）, C3H/HeJ sham group （n=10）, C3H/HeN model group （n=10） and C3H/HeJ model group （n=10）. Partial cerebral I/R was caused by the middle cerebral artery occlusion （MCAO） to duplicate CCS models in mice. After the operation, the electrocardiogram （ECG）, the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-c0 in myocardial tissue and the cardiac pathological changes were observed in each group. It was shown that the brain infarct volume in C3H/HeN model group was larger than that in C3H/HeJ model group （P〈0.01）. The ST segment change and T wave inversion occurred frequently in model groups. Moreover, the TNF-ct level in C3H/HeN model group was higher than that in C3H/HeJ model group （P〈0.01）. The myocar- dial injury was aggravated in C3H/HeN group as compared with C3H/HeJ group. It was concluded that TLR4 was implicated in the development of CCS.

Assessment of the right and left ventricular function in patients with cor pulmonale using high-definition CT

Background Cor pulmonale is often associated with changes of structure and function of the right ventricle （RV） and thus further affects functional changes of the left heart.Our study aimed to assess the left ventricular （LV） and RV function in patients with cor pulmonale using high-definition CT （HDCT）.Methods We prospectively studied 18 cor pulmonale patients determined by the pulmonary function test,clinical examination,chest radiograph,electrocardiogram,and echocardiogram.The subject group was compared to a control group consisting of 18 subjects.The RV and LV functions and RV myocardial mass （MM） were obtained by HDCT in the two groups.The results were compared between the two groups using the independent sample t test.Echocardiographic examination for cardiac function analysis was performed on the same day.Results The RV end-diastolic volume （EDV）,RV end-systolic volume （ESV） and RV myocardial mass were significantly larger in the 18 cor pulmonale patients than in the control group （P〈0.05）.The right ventricular ejection fraction （RVEF） was significantly lower in the 18 cor pulmonale patients than in controls （P〈0.01）.The left ventricular EDV （LVEDV） and LVEF were significantly lower in cor pulmonale patients than in controls （P〈0.01）.There were strong correlations between MDCT and echocardiography,rRVEF=0.839 and rLVEF=0.916,respectively.Conclusions HDCT can accurately quantify RV and LV function.The right ventricular function is impaired in patients with cor pulmonale,while at the same time the left ventricular function is also impaired.
