    Abstract: The role of intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) in cardiogenic shock is still a subject of intense debate despite the neutral results of the IABP-SHOCK II trial (Intraaortic Balloon Pump in Cardiogenic Shock II) with subsequent downgrading in international guidelines. So far, randomized data on the impact of IABP on long-term clinical outcomes in patients with cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction are lacking. Furthermore, only limited evidence is available on general long-term outcomes of patients with cardiogenic shock treated by contemporary practice. Methods: The IABP-SHOCK II trial is a multicenter, randomized, open-label trial. Between 2009 and 2012, 600 patients with cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction undergoing early revascularization were randomized to IABP versus control. Results: Long-term follow-up was performed 6.2 years (interquartile range 5.6–6.7) after initial randomization. Follow-up was completed for 591 of 600 patients (98.5%). Mortality was not different between the IABP and the control group (66.3% versus 67.0%; relative risk, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.88–1.11; P =0.98). There were also no differences in recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke, repeat revascularization, or rehospitalization for cardiac reasons (all P 〉 0.05). Survivors’ quality of life as assessed by the EuroQol 5D questionnaire and the New York Heart Association class did not differ between groups. Conclusions: IABP has no effect on all-cause mortality at 6-year long-term follow-up. Mortality is still very high, with two thirds of patients with cardiogenic shock dying despite contemporary treatment with revascularization therapy.

    Abstract: Women are more likely to suffer and die from cardiogenic shock (CS) as the most severe complication of acute myocardial infarction. Data concerning optimal management for women with CS are scarce. Aim of this study was to better define characteristics of women experiencing CS and to the influence of sex on different treatment strategies. Methods: In the CULPRIT-SHOCK trial (The Culprit Lesion Only PCI Versus Multivessel PCI in Cardiogenic Shock), patients with CS complicating acute myocardial infarction and multivessel coronary artery disease were randomly assigned to one of the following revascularization strategies: either percutaneous coronary intervention of the culprit-lesion-only or immediate multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention. Primary end point was composite of death from any cause or severe renal failure leading to renal replacement therapy within 30 days. We investigated sex-specific differences in general and according to the revascularization strategies. Results: Among all 686 randomized patients included in the analysis, 24% were women. Women were older and had more often diabetes mellitus and renal insufficiency, whereas they had less often history of previous acute myocardial infarction and smoking. After 30 days, the primary clinical end point was not significantly different between groups (56% women versus 49% men; odds ratio, 1.29 [95% CI, 0.91–1.84]; P =0.15). There was no interaction between sex and coronary revascularization strategy regarding mortality and renal failure ( P interaction =0.11). The primary end point occurred in 56% of women treated by the culprit-lesion-only strategy versus 42% men, whereas 55% of women and 55% of men in the multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention group. Conclusions: Although women presented with a different risk profile, mortality and renal replacement were similar to men. Sex did not influence mortality and renal failure according to the different coronary revascularization strategies. Based on these data, women and men presenting with CS complicating acute myocardial infarction and multivessel coronary artery disease should not be treated differently. However, further randomized trials powered to address potential sex-specific differences in CS are still necessary. Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT01927549.

    Abstract: Little is known about the impact of center volume on outcomes in acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between center volume, treatment strategies, and subsequent outcome in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock. Methods and Results In this subanalysis of the randomized CULPRIT‐SHOCK (Culprit Lesion Only PCI Versus Multivessel PCI in Cardiogenic Shock) trial, study sites were categorized based on the annual volume of acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock into low‐/intermediate‐/high‐volume centers ( 〈 50; 50–100; and 〉 100 cases/y). Subjects from the study/compulsory registry with available volume data were included. Baseline/procedural characteristics, overall treatment, and 1‐year all‐cause mortality were compared across categories. n=1032 patients were included in this study (537 treated at low‐volume, 240 at intermediate‐volume, and 255 at high‐volume centers). Baseline risk profile of patients across the volume categories was similar, although high‐volume centers included a larger number of older patients. Low‐/intermediate‐volume centers had more resuscitated patients (57.5%/58.8% versus 42.2%; P 〈 0.01), and more patients on mechanical ventilation in comparison to high‐volume centers. There were no differences in reperfusion success despite considerable differences in adjunctive pharmacological/device therapies. There was no difference in 1‐year all‐cause mortality across volume categories (51.1% versus 56.5% versus 54.4%; P =0.34). Conclusions In this study of patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock, considerable differences in adjunctive medical and mechanical support therapies were observed. However, we could not detect an impact of center volume on reperfusion success or mortality.

    Abstract: The management of patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock is highly complex, and outcomes may depend on the time of hospital admission and subsequent intervention (ie, ON-hours versus OFF-hours). The CULPRIT-SHOCK trial (Culprit Lesion Only PCI Versus Multivessel PCI in Cardiogenic Shock) demonstrated superior outcome for culprit-lesion-only versus immediate multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention in patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction, multivessel disease, and cardiogenic shock. However, it is unknown whether the time of hospital admission affects the overall outcome of these high-risk patients. Methods: We analyzed patients from the CULPRIT-SHOCK trial with respect to the time of hospital admission. We divided patients in ON-hours and OFF-hours groups and further stratified them according to their individual revascularization strategy. Outcome measures consisted of a composite end point of death or renal-replacement therapy within 30 days and mortality within 1 year. Results: Out of 686 patients randomized in the CULPRIT-SHOCK trial, 444 patients (64.7%) presented during ON-hours, whereas 242 patients (35.3%) presented during OFF-hours. Death or renal-replacement therapy at 30 days occurred to a similar extent in patients admitted during ON-hours (51.0%) and OFF-hours (50.0%; P =0.80). Similarly, 1-year mortality was not affected by the time of hospital admission (54.4% ON-hours versus 51.7% OFF-hours, P =0.49). Regardless of admission time, patients had a benefit from culprit-lesion-only as compared to immediate multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention. The composite end point at 30 days occurred in 45.1% versus 57.6% of patients admitted ON-hours and in 47.7% versus 51.9% of patients admitted OFF-hours ( P interaction =0.29). Death within 1 year occurred in 49.4% versus 60.0% of patients admitted during ON-hours and in 51.4% versus 51.9% of patients admitted OFF-hours ( P interaction =0.20). Conclusions: Among patients with myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock, the risk of death or renal-replacement therapy at 30 days, and mortality at 1 year did not differ significantly according to the time of hospital admission.

    Abstract: It is unclear whether atrial fibrillation (AF) influences prognosis in patients with cardiogenic shock and multivessel disease. We aimed to investigate the prognostic impact of AF in patients with cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction. Methods and Results: In a subanalysis of the CULPRIT-SHOCK trial (Culprit Lesion Only PCI versus Multivessel PCI in Cardiogenic Shock), patients were grouped according to the presence of AF during index hospital stay. The primary end point was all-cause death at 30 days, and the key secondary end point was all-cause death at 1 year. AF was documented in 142 (21%) of 686 patients. AF was not a significant predictor of 30-day (adjusted odds ratio, 1.01; 95% CI 0.67–1.54; P =0.95) and 1-year (adjusted odds ratio, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.52–1.22; P =0.30) all-cause mortality. Patients with AF already on admission showed higher all-cause mortality at 30 days (52 of 90, 58% versus 19 of 52, 37%; P =0.02) and 1 year (57 of 90, 63% versus 20 of 52, 39%; P =0.004) compared with patients with newly detected AF during hospital stay. AF was associated with a longer time to hemodynamic stabilization (4, interquartile range, 1–8 days versus 3, interquartile range, 1–6 days; P =0.04) at 30 days. Conclusions: In cardiogenic shock complicating acute myocardial infarction, all-cause mortality is similar in patients with and without AF. Adverse outcome was detected in the subgroup of patients showing AF already on hospital admission. Clinical Trial Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov . Unique identifier: NCT01927549.

    Abstract: Patients with isolated systolic hypertension (ISH) are thought to show a diminished blood pressure (BP)–lowering effect after renal sympathetic denervation (RDN). This conclusion is mostly derived from unipolar radiofrequency catheter ablation studies. Limited data for newer RDN technologies exist. We used data from the RADIOSOUND-HTN (Three-Arm Randomized Trial of Different Renal Denervation Devices and Techniques in Patients With Resistant Hypertension) comparing 3 different RDN approaches to investigate a possible interaction between ISH and RDN response. One hundred twenty patients were stratified by having ISH or combined systolic-diastolic hypertension (CH). Of these, 39 underwent radiofrequency ablation of the renal main arteries, 39 combined radiofrequency ablation of the main and branch arteries, and 42 were treated with ultrasound-based ablation of the main renal artery. Patients with ISH (n=61) were older and had lower systolic and diastolic BP on ambulatory measurement (ambulatory BP measurement) at baseline in comparison to CH (n=59). At 3 months, patients with ISH showed a less pronounced BP-lowering effect of RDN as compared to patients with CH (daytime average −5.9±11.8 versus −13.3±11.7 mm Hg, P =0.001). This difference was significant for radiofrequency ablation of the renal main arteries and ultrasound-based ablation of the main renal artery treatment but did not reach significance in the radiofrequency ablation of the main and branch arteries group. After adjustment for baseline BP values and age, there was no significant difference in BP reduction between ISH and CH. Using unadjusted BP values, RDN seems to be more effective in CH than in ISH. However, adjusting for baseline BP values revealed similar BP reduction in ISH and CH patients, irrespective of the RDN treatment used. The value of ISH as predictor for successful RDN might have been overestimated in the past. Clinical Trial Registration— URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov . Unique identifier: NCT02920034.

    Abstract: Introduction: There is evidence suggesting a positive effect of cigarette smoking on myocardial tissue reperfusion and clinical outcomes in patients with myocardial infarction (“smoker’s paradox”). Hypothesis/Aim: We aimed to evaluate the relationship of smoking status with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)-determined myocardial salvage and damage as well as clinical outcome in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods: This multicenter study included 727 consecutive STEMI patients reperfused within 12 hours after symptom onset. CMR imaging parameters (area-at-risk [AAR], infarct size [IS] , myocardial salvage index [MSI], and microvascular obstruction [MVO] ) were compared according to admission smoking status. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) rates at 12 months after infarction were compared between groups. Results: In our study cohort 339 (46.6%) patients were current smokers. There was no difference in the extent of AAR (35[24-47] vs. 37[27-49] %LV, p=0.10), IS (16[8-25] vs. 17[10-26] %LV, p=0.21), MSI (53[29-70] vs. 52[34-71] , p=0.47) or MVO (0[0-1.7] vs. 0[0-1.6] %LV, p=0.91) between smokers and non-smokers. Smokers had lower MACE (3.8% vs. 8.2%, p=0.01) and mortality (0.9% vs. 3.9%, p=0.01) rates. However, after adjustment for differences in baseline risk factors, smoking was no longer associated with MACE (HR=0.72, 95% CI 0.37 to 1.41, p=0.34) or mortality (HR=0.49, 95% CI 0.14 to 1.76, p=0.27). Conclusion: Smoking is not associated with PPCI efficacy (myocardial salvage) or irreversible myocardial damage in patients with acute STEMI. The lower MACE and mortality rates of smokers were entirely explained by differences in baseline risk characteristics, thus challenging the existence of a “smoker’s paradox”.

    Abstract: Disrupted atherosclerotic plaques in the left anterior descending coronary artery are discussed controversially as a potential pathophysiological mechanism in Takotsubo syndrome ( TTS ). Therefore, the aim of the present study was to assess plaque burden and morphology by using optical coherence tomography in patients with TTS . Methods and Results A total of 23 consecutive TTS patients were included in this single‐center study and underwent optical coherence tomography imaging of the left main coronary artery and the left anterior descending coronary artery at acute presentation. All patients fulfilled the established diagnostic criteria for TTS and the diagnosis was confirmed with a multimodality imaging approach including cardiac magnetic resonance in 16 patients (69.6%). Atherosclerotic plaques located in the left anterior descending coronary artery or both the left anterior descending coronary artery and the left main coronary artery were detected in 16 TTS patients (69.6%), with 6 patients exhibiting multiple plaque types. In addition to the predominant fibrocalcific (52.2%) and lipid‐rich plaques (30.4%), thin‐cap fibroatheromas were also found in 6 patients (26.1%). However, ruptured plaques or intracoronary thrombi were not observed. Vessel stenosis 〉 50% was found in 3 patients (13.0%) by analyzing cross‐sectional areas. Clinical characteristics and cardiac magnetic resonance findings did not differ significantly between TTS patients with and without atherosclerotic plaques. Conclusions Using optical coherence tomography, the present study revealed a high prevalence of atherosclerotic plaques in patients with TTS , including a considerable number of highly vulnerable thin‐cap fibroatheromas. However, ruptured plaques or intracoronary thrombi were not observed and are therefore most likely not the underlying mechanism of TTS .

    Abstract: Recent trial results support the efficacy of renal sympathetic denervation in lowering blood pressure (BP). While BP reduction in general is associated with a clinically meaningful reduction in cardiovascular events and mortality, such a relationship has not been described for patients undergoing renal sympathetic denervation. Methods and Results Clinical events were assessed in patients who underwent renal sympathetic denervation at our center using telephone‐ and clinical follow‐up, interviews with general practitioners, as well as review of hospital databases. Event rates were compared between BP responders (≥5 mm Hg 24‐hour ambulatory BP reduction) and non‐responders; 296 patients were included. Compared with baseline, 24‐hour systolic ambulatory BP was reduced by 8.3±12.2 mm Hg and diastolic BP by 4.8±7.0 mm Hg ( P 〈 0.001 for both) after 3 months. One hundred eighty patients were classified as BP responders and 116 as non‐responders. During a median follow‐up time of 48 months, significantly less major adverse cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, stroke, myocardial infarction, critical limb ischemia, renal failure) occurred in responders than in non‐responders (22 versus 23 events, hazard ratio [HR], 0.53 [95% CI, 0.28 to 0.97] , P =0.041). This was consistent after adjustment for potential confounders as well as confirmed by propensity‐score matching. A proportional relationship was found between BP reduction after 3 months and frequency of major adverse cardiovascular events (HR, 0.75 [95% CI, 0.58 to 0.97] per 10 mm Hg 24‐hour systolic ambulatory BP reduction). Conclusions Based on these observational data, blood pressure response to renal sympathetic denervation is associated with improved long‐term clinical outcome.
