Abstract: Optimal perioperative antiplatelet therapy in patients with coronary stents undergoing surgery still remains poorly defined and a matter of debate among cardiologists, surgeons and anaesthesiologists. Surgery represents one of the most common reasons for premature antiplatelet therapy discontinuation, which is associated with a significant increase in mortality and major adverse cardiac events, in particular stent thrombosis. Clinical practice guidelines provide little support with regard to managing antiplatelet therapy in the perioperative phase in the case of patients with non-deferrable surgical interventions and/or high haemorrhagic risk. Moreover, a standard definition of ischaemic and haemorrhagic risk has never been determined. Finally, recommendations shared by cardiologists, surgeons and anaesthesiologists are lacking. The present consensus document provides practical recommendations on the perioperative management of antiplatelet therapy in patients with coronary stents undergoing surgery. Cardiologists, surgeons and anaesthesiologists have contributed equally to its creation. On the basis of clinical and angiographic data, the individual thrombotic risk has been defined. All surgical interventions have been classified according to their inherent haemorrhagic risk. A consensus on the optimal antiplatelet regimen in the perioperative phase has been reached on the basis of the ischaemic and haemorrhagic risk. Aspirin should be continued perioperatively in the majority of surgical operations, whereas dual antiplatelet therapy should not be withdrawn for surgery in the case of low bleeding risk. In selected patients at high risk for both bleeding and ischaemic events, when oral antiplatelet therapy withdrawal is required, perioperative treatment with short-acting intravenous glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors (tirofiban or eptifibatide) should be taken into consideration.

Abstract: Background Transradial intervention (TRI) and bivalirudin infusion compared with transfemoral coronary intervention or unfractionated heparin plus glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors decrease bleeding complications in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Although bleeding is thought to be associated with worse outcomes, it remains unclear whether TRI and bivalirudin both independently lower ischemic or combined ischemic and bleeding complications in ACS patients undergoing contemporary invasive management. Hypotheses The primary objectives of the MATRIX program are to assess whether TRI or bivalirudin as compared, respectively, with transfemoral coronary intervention (MATRIX access site) or unfractionated heparin plus provisional glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, (MATRIX antithrombin) decrease the 30-day incidence of an ischemic (ie, death, myocardial infarction or stroke) or an ischemic and bleeding composite end point across the whole spectrum of ACS patients, including clarifying the optimal duration of bivalirudin infusion after percutaneous coronary intervention (MATRIX treatment duration). Study design The MATRIX (NCT01433627) study, which incorporates 3 randomized comparisons in a nonfactorial manner and primary end points at 30 days and clinical follow-up ≤1 year, is a large-scale, multicenter study with blind event adjudication conducted at approximately 100 European sites. With 8,200 patients in the randomized comparison of access sites and 6,800 individuals participating in the randomized comparison of antithrombin regimens, this study will have ≥85% power for the primary end points. Summary The MATRIX program aims at conclusively ascertaining the role of TRI and bivalirudin infusion in the whole spectrum of ACS patients undergoing contemporary invasive management.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The cardiovascular safety and efficacy of many current antihyperglycemic agents, including saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, are unclear. METHODS: We randomly assigned 16,492 patients with type 2 diabetes who had a history of, or were at risk for, cardiovascular events to receive saxagliptin or placebo and followed them for a median of 2.1 years. Physicians were permitted to adjust other medications, including antihyperglycemic agents. The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke. RESULTS: A primary end-point event occurred in 613 patients in the saxagliptin group and in 609 patients in the placebo group (7.3% and 7.2%, respectively, according to 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratio with saxagliptin, 1.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89 to 1.12; P=0.99 for superiority; P<0.001 for noninferiority); the results were similar in the "on-treatment" analysis (hazard ratio, 1.03; 95% CI, 0.91 to 1.17). The major secondary end point of a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, coronary revascularization, or heart failure occurred in 1059 patients in the saxagliptin group and in 1034 patients in the placebo group (12.8% and 12.4%, respectively, according to 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratio, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.94 to 1.11; P=0.66). More patients in the saxagliptin group than in the placebo group were hospitalized for heart failure (3.5% vs. 2.8%; hazard ratio, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.07 to 1.51; P=0.007). Rates of adjudicated cases of acute and chronic pancreatitis were similar in the two groups (acute pancreatitis, 0.3% in the saxagliptin group and 0.2% in the placebo group; chronic pancreatitis, <0.1% and 0.1% in the two groups, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: DPP-4 inhibition with saxagliptin did not increase or decrease the rate of ischemic events, though the rate of hospitalization for heart failure was

Abstract: Item does not contain fulltext BACKGROUND: The intensity of antiplatelet therapy during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an important determinant of PCI-related ischemic complications. Cangrelor is a potent intravenous adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-receptor antagonist that acts rapidly and has quickly reversible effects. METHODS: In a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we randomly assigned 11,145 patients who were undergoing either urgent or elective PCI and were receiving guideline-recommended therapy to receive a bolus and infusion of cangrelor or to receive a loading dose of 600 mg or 300 mg of clopidogrel. The primary efficacy end point was a composite of death, myocardial infarction, ischemia-driven revascularization, or stent thrombosis at 48 hours after randomization; the key secondary end point was stent thrombosis at 48 hours. The primary safety end point was severe bleeding at 48 hours. RESULTS: The rate of the primary efficacy end point was 4.7% in the cangrelor group and 5.9% in the clopidogrel group (adjusted odds ratio with cangrelor, 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.66 to 0.93; P=0.005). The rate of the primary safety end point was 0.16% in the cangrelor group and 0.11% in the clopidogrel group (odds ratio, 1.50; 95% CI, 0.53 to 4.22; P=0.44). Stent thrombosis developed in 0.8% of the patients in the cangrelor group and in 1.4% in the clopidogrel group (odds ratio, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.43 to 0.90; P=0.01). The rates of adverse events related to the study treatment were low in both groups, though transient dyspnea occurred significantly more frequently with cangrelor than with clopidogrel (1.2% vs. 0.3%). The benefit from cangrelor with respect to the primary end point was consistent across multiple prespecified subgroups. CONCLUSIONS: Cangrelor significantly reduced the rate of ischemic events, including stent thrombosis, during PCI, with no significant increase in severe bleeding.

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The cardiovascular safety and efficacy of many current antihyperglycemic agents, including saxagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, are unclear. METHODS: We randomly assigned 16,492 patients with type 2 diabetes who had a history of, or were at risk for, cardiovascular events to receive saxagliptin or placebo and followed them for a median of 2.1 years. Physicians were permitted to adjust other medications, including antihyperglycemic agents. The primary end point was a composite of cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, or ischemic stroke. RESULTS: A primary end-point event occurred in 613 patients in the saxagliptin group and in 609 patients in the placebo group (7.3% and 7.2%, respectively, according to 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates; hazard ratio with saxagliptin, 1.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89 to 1.12; P=0.99 for superiority; P

Abstract: Apoptosis occurring in atherosclerotic lesions has been suggested to be involved in the evolution and the structural stability of the plaques. It is still a matter of debate whether apoptosis mainly involves vascular smooth muscle cells (vSMCs) in the fibrous tissue or inflammatory (namely foam) cells, thus preferentially affecting the cell-poor lipid core of the atherosclerotic plaques. The aim of the present investigation was to detect the presence of apoptotic cells and to estimate their percentage in a series of atherosclerotic plaques obtained either by autopsy or during surgical atherectomy. Apoptotic cells were identified on paraffin-embedded sections on the basis of cell nuclear morphology after DNA staining and/or by cytochemical reactions (TUNEL assay, immunodetection of the proteolytic poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 [PARP-1] fragment); biochemical procedures (identifying DNA fragmentation or PARP-1 proteolysis) were also used. Indirect immunofluorescence techniques were performed to label specific antigens for either vSMCs or macrophages (i.e., the cells which are most likely prone to apoptosis in atherosclerotic lesions): the proper selection of fluorochrome labeling allowed the simultaneous detection of the cell phenotype and the apoptotic characteristics, by multicolor fluorescence techniques. Apoptotic cells proved to be less than 5% of the whole cell population, in atherosclerotic plaque sections: this is, in fact, a too low cell fraction to be detected by widely used biochemical methods, such as agarose gel electrophoresis of low-molecular-weight DNA or Western-blot analysis of PARP-1 degradation. Most apoptotic cells were of macrophage origin, and clustered in the tunica media, near or within the lipid-rich core; only a few TUNEL-positive cells were labeled for antigens specific for vSMCs. These results confirm that, among the cell populations in atherosclerotic plaques, macrophage foam-cells are preferentially involved in apoptosis. Their death may decrease the cell number in the lipid core and generate a possibly defective apoptotic clearance: the resulting release of matrix-degrading enzymes could contribute to weakening the fibrous cap and promote the plaque rupture with the risk of acute ischemic events, while increasing the thrombogenic pultaceous pool of the plaque core.

Abstract: Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) is a unique method of coronary lumen visualization enabling also examination the structure of the artery wall. Aim of this study was to assess efficacy and mechanisms of action of balloon angioplasty (PTCA) and directional atherectomy by means of IVUS. IVUS examination was performed before and after mechanical revascularization procedure in 37 pts (DCA-19 pts, PTCA-18 pts). Both PTCA and DCA resulted in enlargement of the coronary artery lumen (2.29 +/- 1.19 mm2 vs 2.93 +/- 1.55 mm2) but, also external diameter of the vessel increased after the procedure (1.94 +/- 1.10 mm2 and 0.74 +/- 1.01 mm2 retrospectively). In 55.6% of cases after PTCA plaque rupture or artery wall dissection was observed, mainly in eccentric lesions (70%). IVUS allowed to recognize details of artery lumen and define efficiency of procedure. In about 15% cases decision to continue PTCA or DCA was made on the basis of IVUS images only. The mechanism in which PTCA modifies the artery lumen is diverse and depends on the structure of lesion. Factors possibly responsible for enlargement of the lumen are: stretching, squeezing and translocation of atheroma as well as cracking and dissections along the arterial wall. DCA effectiveness depends on the withdraw of the atheromatous deposit, however, in over one-half of cases also stretching has some effect.

Abstract: AIMS: This study examined the six-month angiographic results of direct coronary stenting, and compared the nine-month safety, efficacy and cost of this strategy versus stenting after balloon predilatation. METHODS: In phase I of VELVET, 122 patients (mean age = 62.3 +/- 10.1 years, 77% male, 11% with diabetes) with angina pectoris or myocardial ischemia resulting from a single de novo 51% to 95% coronary stenosis underwent direct stenting. The endpoints of phase I included angiographic findings and rates of major adverse cardiac events up to six months of follow-up. In phase II, 401 patients (mean age = 61.3 +/- 10.8 years, 79% male, 16% with diabetes) with angina pectoris or documented myocardial ischemia resulting from single or multiple, de novo or restenotic, coronary lesions were randomized between direct

36. Acute haemodynamic effects of diltiazem in patients with recent Q-wave myocardial infarction.

Author: GHIO, S., DE SERVI, S., FERRARIO, M., POMA, E., BRAMUCCI, E., ANGOLI, L., and SPECCHIA, G.
Abstract: The effects of diltiazem on left ventricular systolic and diastolic function were studied in 14 patients with a recent (12–20 days) Q-wave myocardial infarction. Left ventriculography with simultaneous recording of high-fidelity left ventricular pressure was performed in control conditions, and after i.v. administration of diltiazem (0.2 mg kg as a bolus followed by constant infusion of 0.005 mg kg min lasting 8–10 min). After the administration of the drug, left ventricular systolic pressure decreased by 12.7% and mean circumferential wall stress by 14% (both P<0.01); the heart rate did not change; the ejection fraction increased by 9.6% (P<0.05) and maximum dp/dt/P by 11% (P<0.01). Quantitative segmental wall motion analysis showed that the beneficial effects of diltiazem on global left ventricular systolic function were associated with an increase in contraction in hypokinetic regions, where they were supplied by normal or diseased coronary vessels (both P<0.01). Left ventricular and-diastolic pressure decreased by 23.6% (P<0.05) and minimal diastolic pressure by (P<). Passive diastolic properties of the left ventricular chamber remained unaltered but isovolumic relaxation markedly improved: the T constant decreased 26% (P<0.01). Thus, in patients with a recent Q-wave myocardial infarction, the i.v. administration of diltiazem unloads the left ventricular chamber without showing depressant effects on myocardial contractility [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

37. Silent ischaemia in post-myocardial infarction patients submitted to physical training.

Author: Opasich, C., Cobelli, F., Farilla, C., Riccardi, G., Bosco, L., La Rovere, M. T., Bramucci, E., and Specchia, G.
Abstract: Recently, more attention has been focused on the detection and treatment of silent myocardial ischaemia. Electrocardiographic signs of exercise-induced asymptomatic myocardial ischaemia are very common findings among survivors of acute myocardial infarction. From data of our population we found that silent exercise-induced ischaemia is present in 15–20% of all patients, and that about half of the patients with exercise-induced ST-segment depression were free of symptoms. Ergometric data at the ischaemic threshold are similar between asymptomatic and symptomatic patients while the presence of symptoms is more frequent in patients who were also symptomatic before the myocardial infarction. During the training period, the majority of the ‘silent’ patients remained asymptomatic, 23% developed effort angina, and 9% developed angina at rest. Training monitoring may be helpful in identifying the variability of symptoms. Physical training, in particular an intermittent programme, increased the work-load at which the ECG ischaemic signs appeared. Among the possible mechanisms responsible for exercise-induced silent ischaemia, a different pain tolerance and control of analgesia may be ascribed to explain the absence of pain, perhaps also determined by different endogenous beta-endorphin levels.

38. Effects of cold stimulation on coronary haemodynamics during exercise in patients with coronaryartery diseas.

Author: DE SERVI, S., MUSSINI, A., ANGOLI, L., FERRARIO, M., BRAMUCCI, E., GAVAZZI, A., GHIO, S., ARDISSINO, D., and SPECCHIA, G.
Abstract: To assess if cold-induced vasoconstriction may persist during exercise and contribute to the development myocardial ischaemia, we studied 11 patients with exertional angina and angiographically proven coronary artery disease, in all cases involving the proximal portion of the leftanterior descending artery. Great cardiac vein flow (GCVF) was measured by the thermodilution technique and the coronary resistance of abnormally perfused anterior region (ARCR) was calculated as the quotient of mean arterial pressure and GCVF. All patients performed a supine bicycle exercise test (ET1) until angina occurred. After recovery, they underwent a cold pressor test (CPT) and then performed a second exercise test (ET2) while cold stimulation was continued. During ET1, ARCR decreased (from 1.53± 0.43 to 12.04± 0.35 mmHg ml−, P<0.001) as a result of the metabolic vasodilation, while it rose, although non significantly, during CPT despite the increase in double product (P<0.001), reflecting the augmented myocardial oxygen consumption. However, such abnormal response to CPT did not persist during ET2, because ARCR decreased to a value non significantly different from that achieved at peak ET1. In five patients, who showed a reduced exercise tolerance during ET2, ARCR dropped by 22% during ET2 compared with 34% decrease during ET1. However, such a difference was unlikely to account for the reduction in exercise tolerance, because double product at peak ET2 was never lower than the corresponding value at peak ET1. Our data show that the inappropriate vasoconstriction induced by CPT in an abnormally perfused myocardial region does not persist during exercise, when metabolic vasodilation occurs. The more rapid achievement of critical levels of myocardial oxygen consumption seems the most likely mechanism by which cold stimulation lowers angina threshold during exercise.

39. Effects of nifedipine on coronary blood flow and coronary resistance during cold pressor test and isometric exercise in patients with coronary artery disease.

Author: De Servi, S., Mussini, A., Specchia, G., Bramucci, E., Gavazzi, A., Falcone, C., Ardissino, D., Guagliumi, G., and Bobba, P.
Abstract: Eight patients with coronary artery disease performed a cold pressor test (CPT) and hand-grip isometric exercise (HG) before and 20 min following sublingual administration of nifedipine. CPT performed before nifedipine did not change coronary blood flow determined by the thennodilution technique, but increased coronary resistance (control 0.95 ± 18 mm Hg/ml/min; CPT 1.17 ± 0.30, P < 001). Nifedipine prevented the increase of coronary resistance induced by CPT (control after nifedipine 0.74 ± 018 mm Hg/ml/min; CPT after nifedipine 0.76 ± 0.19, NS) and the absolute value of coronary resistance was significantly lower when CPT was repeated after nifedipine. In contrast, during HG, coronary blood flow increased while coronary resistance did not change (control 0.94 ± 0.10 mm Hg/ml/min; HG 0.99 ± 0.23, NS). When HG was repeated after nifedipine, coronary blood flow was greater and coronary resistance lower than during the test performed before nifedipine.The drug's ability to block inappropriate coronary vasoconstriction induced by cutaneous cold stimuli and to increase coronary blood flow during isometric exercise further substantiates its usefulness in the treatment of patients with coronary artery disease.

41. Effect of the increasing use of coronary angioplasty on outcome at one year in patients with unstable angina.

Author: De Servi, S., Valentini, P., Angoli, L., Bramucci, E., Barberis, P., Mariani, G., and Specchia, G.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE--To determine whether the increasing use of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in patients with unstable angina has reduced the need for bypass surgery and whether this change in the choice of treatment affected the outcome at one year in patients with unstable angina who were admitted to hospital in two different periods of time. DESIGN--Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with unstable angina (angina at rest with ST-T changes during pain) who underwent coronary arteriography in two different periods of time. PATIENTS--158 patients were admitted to hospital between January 1988 and June 1989 (group 1) and 140 patients admitted between January 1992 and June 1993 (group 2). RESULTS--Coronary angioplasty procedures nearly doubled from 29% in group 1 to 56% in group 2 whereas bypass surgery decreased from 36% in group 1 to 23% in group 2 (P < 0.01). Coronary angioplasty increased and bypass surgery decreased in patients with one vessel disease (P < 0.01), two vessel disease (P < 0.05), and three vessel disease (P < 0.01). Coronary angioplasty also increased and bypass surgery decreased in refractory angina and in patients with ejection fraction < 0.50 (both P < 0.05). At 1-year follow up, 14 patients in group 1 (9%) and 10 in group 2 (7%) either died or had myocardial infarction (P = NS). Revascularisation procedures were needed in 16 group 1 patients (10%) and 27 group 2 patients (19%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS--Coronary angioplasty became more widely used in patients with unstable angina. This reduced the need for bypass surgery in patients with multivessel disease, refractory angina, and depressed left ventricular function. This change in treatment did not affect 1-year mortality or the myocardial infarction rate. More patients in the more recent group in which angioplasty was the preferred treatment required a further revascularisation procedure than in the earlier group in which bypass grafting was more often used as the initial treatment.

42. Influence of plaque morphology on the mechanism of luminal enlargement after directional coronary atherectomy and balloon angioplasty.

Author: Marsico, F., Kubica, J., De Servi, S., Angoli, L., Bramucci, E., Costante, A. M., and Specchia, G.
Abstract: OBJECTIVE--To relate the mechanism of luminal gain after directional atherectomy and balloon angioplasty to the morphological characteristics of the coronary lesions, assessed by intravascular ultrasound imaging. DESIGN--Intravascular ultrasound imaging was performed before and after the revascularisation procedure to assess the contribution of wall stretching and plaque reduction in luminal gain. SUBJECTS--32 patients undergoing balloon angioplasty and 29 undergoing directional coronary atherectomy. MAIN RESULTS--The main luminal area in vessels treated by balloon angioplasty increased from 1.51 (SD 0.30) to 3.91 (1.09) mm2 (P < 0.0001) with a concomitant increase in total vessel area from 11.44 (2.73) to 13.07 (2.83) mm2 (P < 0.0001). Therefore stretching of the vessel wall accounted for 68% of the luminal gain while plaque reduction accounted for the remaining 32%. This mechanism ranged from 45% in non-calcific plaques to 81% in echogenic plaques. The main luminal area in vessels treated by directional atherectomy increased from 1.49 (0.32) to 4.68 (1.73) mm2 (P < 0.0001), with a concomitant increase of total vessel area from 13.61 (4.67) to 15.2 (4.04) mm2 (P = 0.006). Thus stretching of the vessel wall accounted for 49% of the luminal area gain and plaque reduction for the remaining 51%. The presence of calcium influenced the relative contribution of these two mechanisms to the final luminal gain after directional atherectomy, since in calcific plaques stretching of the vessel wall accounted for only 9% of the luminal gain as compared to 56% in non-calcific plaques. After balloon angioplasty there was greater evidence of coronary dissections (32% v 3% after directional atherectomy, P < 0.01) and plaque fissure (60% v 0%, P < 0.01). Plaque fissure was more frequently seen in echolucent and concentric lesions, whereas dissections prevailed in echogenic and eccentric lesions. CONCLUSIONS--Intravascular ultrasound imaging may allow the assessment of acute changes in lumen and vessel wall after revascularisation procedures, and help in evaluating the potential effect of the structure and morphology of coronary lesions on the mechanism of luminal enlargement.

43. Coronary haemodynamic effects of short-term intravenous administration of gallopamil in patients with stable exertional angina.

Author: De Servi, S, Ferrario, M, Ghio, S, Mussini, A, Angoli, L, Bramucci, E, Bartoli, A, Poma, E, Rondanelli, R, and Specchia, G
Abstract: The effects of short term intravenous administration of gallopamil on coronary haemodynamic variables were studied in 10 patients with stable exertional angina and angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease that affected the proximal portion of the left anterior descending artery. Blood flow in the great cardiac vein was measured by a thermodilution technique, both at rest and during ischaemia induced by atrial pacing, before and after intravenous administration of gallopamil (0.02 mg/kg as a bolus dose given over three minutes, followed by an infusion of 0.0005 mg/kg/min). Gallopamil significantly prolonged the mean (SD) duration of pacing that was tolerated (11 (2.6) vs 14.8 (2.4] min, significantly increased the mean (SD) peak heart rate attained during pacing (142 (15) vs 158 (11) beats/min), and reduced mean (SD) arterial pressure (133 (17) vs 116 (17) mm Hg). There were no changes in mean (SD) blood flow in the great cardiac vein (134.1 (57) vs 112.9 (38) ml/min, mean (SD) anterior regional coronary resistance (1.18 (0.6) vs 1.15 (0.5) mm Hg/ml/min), and mean (SD) anterior regional myocardial oxygen consumption (16.6 (6) vs 13.7 (4) ml/min). These data confirm that gallopamil is an effective antianginal agent and suggest that a reduction of myocardial oxygen demand is the predominant mechanism by which the drug exerts its beneficial effects.

Abstract: ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to compare sulfur hexafluoride microbubble (SonoVue)-enhanced myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) relative to coronary angiography (CA) for assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD).BackgroundSmall-scale studies have shown that myocardial perfusion assessed by SonoVue-enhanced MCE is a viable alternative to SPECT for CAD assessment. However, large multicenter studies are lacking.MethodsPatients referred for myocardial ischemia testing at 34 centers underwent rest/vasodilator SonoVue-enhanced flash-replenishment MCE, standard 99mTc-labeled electrocardiography-gated SPECT, and quantitative CA within 1 month. Myocardial ischemia assessments by 3 independent, blinded readers for MCE and 3 readers for SPECT were collapsed into 1 diagnosis per patient per technique and were compared to CA (reference standard) read by 1 independent blinded reader.ResultsOf 628 enrolled patients who received SonoVue (71% males; mean age: 64 years; >1 cardiovascular [CV] risk factor in 99% of patients) 516 patients underwent all 3 examinations, of whom 161 (31.2%) had ≥70% stenosis (131 had single-vessel disease [SVD]; 30 had multivessel disease), and 310 (60.1%) had ≥50% stenosis. Higher sensitivity was obtained with MCE than with SPECT (75.2% vs. 49.1%, respectively; p < 0.0001), although specificity was lower (52.4% vs. 80.6%, respectively; p < 0.0001) for ≥70% stenosis. Similar findings were obtained for patients with ≥50% stenosis. Sensitivity levels for detection of SVD and proximal disease for ≥70% stenosis were higher for MCE (72.5% vs. 42.7%, respectively; p < 0.0001; 80% vs. 58%, respectively; p = 0.005, respectively).ConclusionsSonoVue-enhanced MCE demonstrated superior sensitivity but lower specificity for detection of CAD compared to SPECT in a population with a high incidence of CV risk factors and intermediate-high prevalence of CAD.(A phase III study to compare SonoVue® enhanced myocardial echocardiography [MCE] to single photon emission computerized tomography [ECG-GATED SPECT], at rest and at peak of low-dose Dipyridamole stress test, in the assessment of significant coronary artery disease [CAD] in patients with suspect or known CAD using Coronary Angiography as Gold Standard–SonoVue MCE vs SPECT; EUCTR2007-003492-39-GR)

Abstract: We compared the effects of cold pressor test and mental stress on coronary hemodynamics in 16 patients with coronary artery disease. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the clinical characteristics of chest pain. Group I included 5 patients complaining of angina at rest associated with transient ST-segment changes, while Group II comprised 11 patients with stable exertional angina. In all patients coronary arteriography disclosed a proximal left anterior descending artery disease. Thermodilution measurements of the great cardiac vein flow, the venous efflux from the territory supplied by the left anterior descending artery, were obtained during cold pressor test and, after return to control conditions, during a mental arithmetic stress, consisting of serial subtractions of a two-figure number from a four-figure number. Coronary resistance of the anterior region was calculated as the quotient of mean arterial pressure and the great cardiac vein flow. In both groups of patients heart rate, mean arterial pressure and the great cardiac vein flow increased significantly during cold pressor test as well as during mental stress. During cold pressor test, coronary resistance of the anterior region increased in all patients of Group I (p less than 0.05), but did not change significantly in Group II patients. During mental test, coronary resistance of the anterior region increased in 3 patients and decreased in 2 patients of Group I (p:NS), while a significant decrease in coronary resistance of the anterior region was found in all patients of Group II (p less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract: Measurement of coronary sinus blood flow by continuous thermodilution is a well established technique for the clinical study of myocardial perfusion. More recently, advances in catheter technology enabled regional left ventricular flow measurements. In particular, measurement of flow from the great cardiac vein appears to accurately reflect the perfusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery. This regional approach allowing the correlation with coronary arterial anatomy, has contributed to an improved understanding of the mechanisms by which functional factors interact with organic narrowing in the genesis of myocardial ischemia at rest, during provocative tests and during exercise. In addition, it has provided useful information in the evaluation of antianginal drugs through the discrimination between the effects on coronary resistance and myocardial oxygen consumption.

Abstract: Although restenosis after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) may have morphologic characteristics which are not similar to the original stenosis, it is unknown if a different morphology is also associated with a different clinical presentation. Eleven consecutive patients with angina and single vessel disease had a recurrence of symptoms and restenosis within 6 months of successful PTCA. Seven patients (group I) complained of spontaneous angina before PTCA and had a positive hyperventilation test, while 4 patients complained of exercise-induced angina and had a negative hyperventilation test (group II). In group I restenosis was associated with the same clinical presentation as before PTCA and the hyperventilation test was positive in 6 patients. The angiographic morphology of restenosis was changed in 4 patients. In group II restenosis occurred with the same clinical presentation as before PTCA, the hyperventilation test was negative in 3 patients while the angiographic morphology of restenosis was unchanged in only 1 patient. Although morphology of restenosis is different from the original stenosis, clinical presentation associated with restenosis is generally the same as before PTCA. The response to vasoactive stimuli is independent from the morphology of the lesion.
