    Abstract: Hypertriglyceridemia occurs mainly because of metabolic disorders secondary to diabetes, alcohol intake, and/or overweight. Genetic factors have also been clearly identified in most severe cases. Triglycerides are generally considered as ‘bystanders’ for cardiovascular diseases. However, biological and basic research provides strong data suggesting that triglyceride-rich lipoproteins could be involved in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases. Recent findings The REDUCE-IT trial recently showed that icosapent ethyl reduces major cardiovascular events and related death. Summary For many years, low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) have been considered the Holy Grail for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease management. New data from basic research in biology, epidemiology, genetics, and preliminary clinical trials support the hypothesis that triglyceride-rich lipoproteins could be the causal factors for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; hence, triglyceride should be taken into consideration in the management of these patients. Omega-3-fatty acids used in the REDUCE-IT trial reduced the residual cardiovascular risk efficiently beyond statins. However, its effect has to be completely understood as it seems to be unrelated to LDLc or triglyceride reduction, but linked to pleiotropic effects involving inflammation, platelet adhesion, and plaque instability reduction, paving the way for trials that will target more specific potential pathophysiologic pathways.

    Abstract: Inflammation is a key factor of myocardial damage in reperfused ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction. We hypothesized that colchicine, a potent anti-inflammatory agent, may reduce infarct size (IS) and left ventricular (LV) remodeling at the acute phase of ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction. Methods: In this double-blind multicenter trial, we randomly assigned patients admitted for a first episode of ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction referred for primary percutaneous coronary intervention to receive oral colchicine (2-mg loading dose followed by 0.5 mg twice a day) or matching placebo from admission to day 5. The primary efficacy outcome was IS determined by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at 5 days. The relative LV end-diastolic volume change at 3 months and IS at 3 months assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging were among the secondary outcomes. Results: We enrolled 192 patients, 101 in the colchicine group and 91 in the control group. At 5 days, the gadolinium enhancement–defined IS did not differ between the colchicine and placebo groups with a mean of 26 interquartile range (IQR) [16–44] versus 28.4 IQR [14–40] g of LV mass, respectively ( P =0.87). At 3 months follow-up, there was no significant difference in LV remodeling between the colchicine and placebo groups with a +2.4% (IQR, –8.3% to 11.1%) versus –1.1% (IQR, –8.0% to 9.9%) change in LV end-diastolic volume ( P =0.49). Infarct size at 3 months was also not significantly different between the colchicine and placebo groups (17 IQR [10–28] versus 18 IQR [10–27] g of LV mass, respectively; P =0.92). The incidence of gastrointestinal adverse events during the treatment period was greater with colchicine than with placebo (34% versus 11%, respectively; P =0.0002). Conclusions: In this randomized, placebo-controlled trial, oral administration of high-dose colchicine at the time of reperfusion and for 5 days did not reduce IS assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

    Abstract: Morphine is commonly used to treat chest pain during myocardial infarction, but its effect on cardiovascular outcome has never been directly evaluated. The aim of this study was to examine the effect and safety of morphine in patients with acute anterior ST ‐segment elevation myocardial infarction followed up for 1 year. Methods and Results We used the database of the CIRCUS (Does Cyclosporine Improve Outcome in ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients) trial, which included 969 patients with anterior ST ‐segment elevation myocardial infarction, admitted for primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Two groups were defined according to use of morphine preceding coronary angiography. The composite primary outcome was the combined incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular death, heart failure, cardiogenic shock, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and stroke during 1 year. A total of 554 (57.1%) patients received morphine at first medical contact. Both groups, with and without morphine treatment, were comparable with respect to demographic and periprocedural characteristics. There was no significant difference in major adverse cardiovascular events between patients who received morphine compared with those who did not (26.2% versus 22.0%, respectively; P =0.15). The all‐cause mortality was 5.3% in the morphine group versus 5.8% in the no‐morphine group ( P =0.89). There was no difference between groups in infarct size as assessed by the creatine kinase peak after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (4023±118 versus 3903±149 IU/L; P =0.52). Conclusions In anterior ST ‐segment elevation myocardial infarction patients treated by primary percutaneous coronary intervention, morphine was used in half of patients during initial management and was not associated with a significant increase in major adverse cardiovascular events at 1 year.

    Abstract: In patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction and multivessel disease, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for nonculprit lesions guided by fractional flow reserve (FFR) is superior to treatment of the culprit lesion alone. Whether deferring nonculprit PCI is safe in this specific context is questionable. We aimed to assess clinical outcomes at 1 year in ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction patients with multivessel coronary artery disease and an FFR-guided strategy for nonculprit lesions, according to whether or not ≥1 PCI was performed. Methods: Outcomes were analyzed in patients of the randomized FLOWER-MI (Flow Evaluation to Guide Revascularization in Multivessel ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction) trial in whom, after successful primary PCI, nonculprit lesions were assessed using FFR. The primary outcome was a composite of all-cause death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, and unplanned hospitalization with urgent revascularization at 1 year. Results: Among 1171 patients enrolled in this study, 586 were assigned to the FFR-guided group: 388 (66%) of them had ≥1 PCI, and 198 (34%) had no PCI. Mean FFR before decision (ie, PCI or not) of nonculprit lesions was 0.75±0.10 and 0.88±0.06, respectively. During follow-up, a primary outcome event occurred in 16 of 388 patients (4.1%) in patients with PCI and in 16 of 198 patients (8.1%) in patients without PCI (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.42 [95% CI, 0.20–0.88]; P =0.02). Conclusions: In patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction undergoing complete revascularization guided by FFR measurement, those with ≥1 PCI had lower event rates at 1 year, compared with patients with deferred PCI, suggesting that deferring lesions judged relevant by visual estimation but with FFR 〉 0.80 may not be optimal in this context. Future randomized studies are needed to confirm these data. Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT02943954.

    Abstract: Myocardial injury is associated with higher mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and might be increased by prior balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV). We aimed to evaluate the impact of prior BAV versus direct prosthesis implantation on myocardial injury occurring after (TAVR) with balloon‐expandable prostheses. Methods and Results The DIRECTAVI (Direct Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation) trial, an open‐label randomized study, demonstrated noninferiority of TAVR without BAV (direct TAVR group) compared with systematic BAV (BAV group) with the Edwards SAPIEN 3 valve. High‐sensitivity troponin was assessed before and the day after the procedure. Incidence of myocardial injury after the procedure (high‐sensitivity troponin elevation 〉 15× the upper reference limit [14 ng/L]) was the main end point. Impact of myocardial injury on 1‐month adverse events (all‐cause mortality, stroke, major bleeding, major vascular complications, transfusion, acute kidney injury, heart failure, pacemaker implantation, and aortic regurgitation) was evaluated. Preprocedure and postprocedure high‐sensitivity troponin levels were available in 211 patients. The mean age of patients was 83 years (78–87 years), with 129 men (61.1%). Mean postprocedure high‐sensitivity troponin was 124.9±81.4 ng/L in the direct TAVR group versus 170.4±127.7 ng/L in the BAV group ( P =0.007). Myocardial injury occurred in 42 patients (19.9%), including 13 patients (12.2%) in the direct TAVR group and 29 (27.9%) in the BAV group ( P =0.004). BAV increased by 2.8‐fold (95% CI, 1.4–5.8) myocardial injury probability. Myocardial injury was associated with 1‐month adverse events ( P =0.03). Conclusions BAV increased the incidence and magnitude of myocardial injury after TAVR with new‐generation balloon‐expandable valves. Myocardial injury was associated with 1‐month adverse events. These results argue in favor of direct SAPIEN 3 valve implantation. Registration URL: https://www.Clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT02729519.

    Abstract: Reperfusion during acute myocardial infarction remains the best treatment for reducing infarct size. Postconditioning, applied at the onset of reperfusion, reduces myocardial infarction both in animals and humans. The objective of this study was to identify the time delay to apply postconditioning at reperfusion, allowing preservation of cardioprotection in the mouse myocardium. This is a major issue in the management of acute myocardial infarction patients. Methods and Results— Mice were subjected to 40 minutes of ischemia and 60 minutes of reperfusion (IR 60′ ). Postconditioning protocols corresponding to repetitive ischemia (3 cycles of 1 minute of ischemia and 1 minute of reperfusion) were applied during early reperfusion at various time durations (Δt) after reopening of the coronary artery (Δt=10 seconds, 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, and 45 minutes; PostC Δt ). Infarct size/area at risk was reduced by 71% in PostC Δ1 compared with IR 60′ mice ( P =5×10 −6 ). There was a linear correlation ( r 2 =0.91) between infarct size and Δt, indicating that the cardioprotective effect of delayed postconditioning was progressively attenuated when Δt time increased. The protective effect of PostC Δ1 and PostC Δ15 was still effective when the duration of reperfusion was prolonged to 24 hours (IR 24 hours ; PostC Δ1 and PostC Δ15 versus IR 24 hours , P =0.001). Similar results were obtained for internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and lactate dehydrogenase release. Conclusions— This study in our in vivo mouse model of myocardial IR shows for the first time that delaying the intervention of postconditioning to 30 minutes does not abrogate the cardioprotective effect of postconditioning. This finding provides evidence that the time window of protection afforded by postconditioning may be larger than initially reported.

    Abstract: Geographic variation in admission to the intensive cardiac care unit (ICCU) might question about the efficiency and the equity of the healthcare system. The aim was to explain geographic variation in the rate of admission to ICCU for coronary artery disease (CAD) or heart failure (HF) in France. We conducted a retrospective study based on the French national hospital discharge database. All inpatient stays for CAD or HF with an admission to an ICCU in 2014 were included. We estimated population-based age and sex-standardized ICCU admission rates at the department level. We separately modeled the department-level admission rates for HF and CAD using generalized linear models. In all, 61,010 stays for CAD and 27,828 stays for HF had at least 1 ICCU admission. The ICCU admission rates were explained by the admission rate for CAD, by the diabetes prevalence, by the proportion of the population 〉 75 years, and by the drive time to the ICCU. This work sheds light on the finding of substantial geographic variation in the ICCU admission rates for CAD and HF in France. This variation is explained by both the age and the health status of the population and also by the drive time to the closest ICCU for HF. Moreover, ICCU admission for HF might be more prone to unwarranted variations due to medical practice patterns.
