¿Debemos seguir considerando el monto isquémico en los síndromes coronarios crónicos? / Should We Continue to Consider Extent of Ischemic Myocardium in Chronic Coronary Syndromes?

RESUMEN El surgimiento de nueva evidencia científica en los últimos años en relación con los síndromes coronarios crónicos (SCC) lleva a reconsiderar las recomendaciones diagnósticas y terapéuticas que históricamente guiaron nuestra práctica médica. Sin embargo, es importante destacar que gran parte de la información difundida carece de un análisis crítico riguroso, lo que nos expone al riesgo de incorporar nuevos algoritmos en la práctica clínica que podrían no ser completamente aplicables a nuestra población. En esta revisión se analiza la literatura científica disponible relacionada a los SCC, para tratar de establecer si realmente el monto isquémico carece de significado clínico y pronóstico tal como se afirma en algunas publicaciones.

ABSTRACT In the last years, new scientific evidence related to chronic coronary syndromes (CCS) has led to reconsider the diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations that historically guided our medical practice. However, it is important to point out that the disseminated information lacks a precise critical analysis, with the risk of incorporating new algorithms in clinical practice that might not be completely applicable to our population. The present review analyses the available scientific CCS literature to establish whether the extent of ischemic myocardium has no real clinical and prognostic significance as reported in some publications.

The applications of the plasma matrix in the treatments of dental pulp and periapical diseases / 口腔疾病防治

@#The plasma matrix is a kind of autologous blood conduct. It has been widely used in maxillofacial tissue regeneration, skin cosmetology and some other fields. Recently, to preserve the dental pulp as well as the teeth, pulp regeneration therapy and apical surgery have become increasingly important as well as the applications of bioactive materials. As a kind of autologous bioactive material, the plasma matrix has some natural advantages as it is easy to obtain and malleable. The plasma matrix can be used in the following cases: ①pulp revascularization of young permanent teeth with open apical foramina that cannot stimulate apical bleeding; ② apical barrier surgery with bone defects and large area perforation repair with bone defects or root sidewall repair surgery; ③ apical surgeries of teeth with large area of apical lesions, with or without periodontal diseases. The plasma matrix is a product derived from our blood, and there are no obvious contraindications for its use. Several systematic reviews have shown that the plasma matrix can effectively promote the regenerative repair of dental pulp in patients with periapical diseases. However, the applications of plasma matrix are different because its characteristics are affected by different preparation methods. In addition, there is still a lack of long-term clinical researches on the plasma matrix, and the histological evidences are difficult to obtain, so a large number of in vitro and in vivo experimental studies are still needed. This article will describe the applications of different kinds of plasma matrix for dental pulp regeneration and bone tissue regeneration in apical surgeries to provide references for clinicians in indication selection and prognosis evaluation.

Cirugía coronaria sin circulación extracorpórea / Coronary artery revascularization performed without extracorporeal circulation

La cirugía de revascularización coronaria (CABG) es el estándar de tratamiento para la revascularización de la enfermedad de la arteria coronaria izquierda y/o de tres vasos. La cirugía coronaria sin bomba (OPCAB) evita el uso de derivación cardiopulmonar y puede mejorar los resultados a largo plazo al reducir las tasas de lesión miocárdica perioperatoria, accidente cerebrovascular (ACV), deterioro neurocognitivo y mortalidad de causa cardiaca. En la actualidad, se han llevado a cabo diversos ensayos clínicos desde la popularización del OPCAB en la década de los 90. Sin embargo, hasta el momento no se ha demostrado ningún beneficio del OPCAB en comparación con la cirugía tradicional a pesar de las reducciones favorables a corto plazo en los requerimientos de transfusión y otras complicaciones postoperatorias. Además, OPCAB se asocia con una revascularización miocárdica menos eficaz y no previene por completo las complicaciones tradicionalmente asociadas con la circulación extracorpórea (CEC). Este artículo revisa la evidencia actual de OPCAB en comparación con CABG tradicional en cuanto a los resultados clínicos a corto y largo plazo. Se analizan los resultados de la cirugía coronaria sin circulación extracorpórea (CEC) , comparándola con la cirugía convencional (con CEC). La revascularización coronaria sin CEC presenta resultados similares a la convencional, siempre que se cumplan determinadas condiciones en la selección de los pacientes. Una de ellas, muy importante, es la mayor experiencia del cirujano con el procedimiento.

The results of coronary artery revascularization performed without extracorporeal circulation (off pump) are compared to those of the traditional ("on pump") procedure. Compliance with selective conditions are required to obtain similar results. The most important being the experience of the surgeon performing the off pump procedure.

Síndrome cardiorrenal tipo 4 en paciente revascularizado percutáneamente

Introducción: el síndrome cardiorrenal es una patología dada por la disfunción en la interdependencia de estos órganos por interacciones bidireccionales (agudas o crónicas), los cuales pueden afectar indistintamente la función renal o ventricular. Objetivo: presentar y justificar la enfermedad renal crónica como desencadenante de cuadros congestivos por falla cardiaca de novo. Presentación del caso: se reporta el caso de un paciente masculino de 69 años revascularizado percutáneamente hace tres años con múltiples comorbilidades que ingresa en el contexto de una falla cardiaca de novo, secundaria a su enfermedad renal crónica estadio V de base, en manejo con hemodiálisis y en quien se descartó enfermedad coronaria aguda y miocardiopatía infiltrativa. Se logró estabilizar la injuria renal y cardiaca dando egreso y continuando manejo ambulatorio de sus patologías, al llevar un control adecuado de las mismas con Nefrología y Cardiología. Discusión y conclusión: la enfermedad cardiovascular generada por antecedentes renales tiene una gran repercusión en la función ventricular izquierda, causando hipertrofia, lo que lleva a una congestión con posterior sobrecarga debido a la caída del filtrado glomerular y que resulta en la disminución de la fracción de eyección. La enfermedad renal crónica predispone a alteraciones en la función cardiaca, lo que aumenta el riesgo cardiovascular.

Background: Cardiorenal syndrome is a pathology caused by dysfunction in the interdependence of these organs due to bidirectional interactions (acute or chronic), which can affect either renal or ventricular function. Purpose: To present and justify chronic kidney disease as a trigger of congestive conditions due to de novo heart failure. Case presentation: We report the case of a 69-year-old male patient percutaneously revascularized 3 years ago with multiple comorbidities who was admitted in the context of de novo heart failure secondary to his stage V chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis, in whom acute coronary artery disease and infiltrative cardiomyopathy were ruled out. The renal and cardiac injury was stabilized and the patient was discharged and continued outpatient management of his pathologies with adequate control of the same with nephrology and cardiology. Discussion and conclusion: Cardiovascular disease generated by renal history has great repercussion in left ventricular function causing hypertrophy that leads to congestion with subsequent overload due to the fall of glomerular filtration resulting in a decrease of the ejection fraction. Chronic kidney disease predisposes to alterations in cardiac function increasing cardiovascular risk.

Complete revascularization with PCI in STEMI patients with multivessel disease, when is the appropriate time? / Revascularización completa mediante ICP en pacientes con STEMI y enfermedad coronaria multivaso, ¿cuál es el momento adecuado?

Abstract Objective: The purpose was to compare the outcomes of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and multivessel coronary artery disease undergoing one-time multivessel revascularization (OTMVR) versus in-hospital staged complete revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods: This was a single-center, retrospective, observational, and cohort study, including data from January 2013 to April 2019. A total of 634 patients were included in the study. Comparisons were made between patients who underwent in-hospital staged complete revascularization versus OTMVR. The primary endpoint was all-cause in-hospital mortality, secondary endpoints included cardiovascular complications, all-cause new hospitalization, and mortality evaluated at 30 days and 1 year. In addition, we constructed a logistic regression model for determining the risk factors that predicted mortality. Results: Of the 634 patients, 328 were treated with staged revascularization and 306 with OTMVR. About 76.7% were men, with a mean age of 63.3 years. Less complex coronary lesions and a higher proportion of the left anterior descending artery as the culprit vessel were found in the OTMVR group. Compared with staged revascularization, the primary and secondary endpoints occurred less frequently with OTMVR strategy. Conclusions: OTMVR did not generate more complications and demonstrate better clinical outcomes than in-hospital staged revascularization.

Resumen Objetivo: El propósito fue comparar resultados de pacientes con infarto agudo de miocardio con elevación del segmento ST y enfermedad coronaria multivaso sometidos a revascularización completa de un solo momento frente a revascularización completa por etapas mediante intervención coronaria percutánea. Métodos: Estudio cohorte observacional, retrospectivo, unicéntrico, con datos de enero de 2013 a abril de 2019, incluyendo 634 pacientes. Se compararon resultados entre pacientes sometidos a revascularización completa por etapas frente a revascularización completa en un solo momento. El objetivo primario fue valorar mortalidad intrahospitalaria por cualquier causa y como objetivos secundarios se evaluaron a 30 días y 1 año las complicaciones cardiovasculares, hospitalizaciones y mortalidad. Se construyó un modelo de regresión logística para determinar los factores de riesgo que predijeron mortalidad. Resultados: De 634 pacientes, 328 fueron tratados con revascularización por etapas y 306 con revascularización en una intervención. El 76.7% fueron hombres, con una media de edad de 63.3 años. En el grupo de revascularización de un solo tiempo se encontraron lesiones coronarias menos complejas y una mayor proporción de la arteria descendente anterior como vaso culpable. Comparado con el grupo de revascularización por etapas, los objetivos primarios y secundarios ocurrieron con menos frecuencia en el grupo de revascularización en un solo tiempo. Conclusiones: Comparada con la revascularización intrahospitalaria por etapas, la revascularización en una intervención lleva a mejores desenlaces clínicos sin generar más complicaciones.

Encephalo-duro-arterio-synangiosis for intracranial arterial steno-occlusive disease: a retrospective case series study of 40 cases / 国际脑血管病杂志

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of encephalo-duro-arterio-synangiosis (EDAS) for intracranial atherosclerotic steno-occlusive disease (ICASD).Methods:Patients with symptomatic ICASD received EDAS treatment in the Department of Neurosurgery, the PLA General Hospital from January 2018 to January 2019 were retrospectively included. The baseline information, perioperative complications, primary endpoint events, and changes in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores before and after surgery were collected. The primary endpoint event was any stroke/death that occurred within 30 d after enrollment. The secondary endpoint events were any stroke/death, non-stroke bleeding (subdural or epidural bleeding), and clinical functional improvement after 30 d. The clinical functional improvement was defined as a decrease of ≥1 in the mRS score compared to before surgery.Results:A total of 40 patients were included, including 30 males and 10 females, aged 53.9±8.6 years old. The clinical symptoms were mainly limb weakness and dizziness. One case of ischemic stroke and one case of hemorrhagic stroke occurred during the perioperative period. The primary endpoint event incidence was 2.5%. The patients were followed up for 49.75±2.99 months after surgery. One patient died of cerebral hemorrhage 31 months after surgery, and one patient developed acute ischemic stroke 35 months after surgery. The postoperative mRS scores of 34 patients decreased compared to before surgery, and the clinical function improvement rate was 85%. The mRS score increased in 2 cases after surgery compared to before surgery and 4 cases had no change.Conclusion:EDAS can improve the clinical function of patients with symptomatic ICASD and reduce the incidence of long-term stroke.

Comparação de Soluções Cardioplégicas em Cirurgia de Revascularização Miocárdica sobre Mecanismos de Autofagia e Apoptose / Comparison of Cardioplegic Solutions in Coronary Bypass Surgery Over Autophagy and Apoptosis Mechanisms

Resumo Fundamento A doença arterial coronariana (DAC) devido à isquemia miocárdica causa perda permanente de tecido cardíaco. Objetivos Nosso objetivo foi demonstrar o possível dano ao miocárdio em nível molecular através dos mecanismos de autofagia e apoptose em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização miocárdica. Métodos Um grupo recebeu uma solução de cardioplegia Custodiol e o outro grupo uma solução de cardioplegia sanguínea. Duas amostras miocárdicas foram coletadas de cada paciente durante a operação, imediatamente antes da parada cardíaca e após a liberação do pinçamento aórtico. Foram avaliadas as expressões de marcadores de autofagia e apoptose. O nível de significância estatística adotado foi de 5%. Resultados A expressão do gene BECLIN foi significativa nos tecidos miocárdicos do grupo CS (p=0,0078). Os níveis de expressão dos genes CASPASE 3, 8 e 9 foram significativamente menores no grupo CC. Os níveis pós-operatórios de TnT foram significativamente diferentes entre os grupos (p=0,0072). As expressões dos genes CASPASE 8 e CASPASE 9 foram semelhantes antes e depois do pinçamento aórtico (p=0,8552, p=0,8891). No grupo CC, os níveis de expressão gênica de CASPASE 3, CASPASE 8 e CASPASE 9 não foram significativamente diferentes em amostras de tecido coletadas após pinçamento aórtico (p=0,7354, p=0,0758, p=0,4128, respectivamente). Conclusões Com nossos achados, acreditamos que as soluções CC e CS não apresentam diferença significativa em termos de proteção miocárdica durante as operações de by-pass.

Abstract Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) due to myocardial ischemia causes permanent loss of heart tissue. Objectives We aimed to demonstrate the possible damage to the myocardium at the molecular level through the mechanisms of autophagy and apoptosis in coronary bypass surgery patients. Methods One group was administered a Custodiol cardioplegia solution, and the other group was administered a Blood cardioplegia solution. Two myocardial samples were collected from each patient during the operation, just before cardiac arrest and after the aortic cross-clamp was released. The expressions of autophagy and apoptosis markers were evaluated. The level of statistical significance adopted was 5%. Results The expression of the BECLIN gene was significant in the myocardial tissues in the BC group (p=0.0078). CASPASE 3, 8, and 9 gene expression levels were significantly lower in the CC group. Postoperative TnT levels were significantly different between the groups (p=0.0072). CASPASE 8 and CASPASE 9 gene expressions were similar before and after aortic cross-clamping (p=0.8552, p=0.8891). In the CC group, CASPASE 3, CASPASE 8, and CASPASE 9 gene expression levels were not found to be significantly different in tissue samples taken after aortic cross-clamping (p=0.7354, p=0.0758, p=0.4128, respectively). Conclusions With our findings, we believe that CC and BC solutions do not have a significant difference in terms of myocardial protection during bypass operations.

Effectiveness of Early Mobilization in Prevention and Rehabilitation of Functional Impairment After Myocardial Revascularization Surgery: A Systematic Review

Abstract Introduction Myocardial revascularization surgery is associated with high morbidity and mortality, due to factors like the general anesthesia and the surgical procedure itself. Physiotherapy, combined with early mobilization (EM), can provide the patient with better functional parameters. Objective To review, identify and describe the effectiveness of EM in the prevention and rehabilitation of functional parameters of coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Methodology This is a systematic review conducted between February 2020 and 2021 of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) published in the Cochrane databases Library, LILACS, Scielo and Medline / PubMed. The Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale was used for assessment of the methodological quality of studies included. Results Four studies were reviewed. Two articles assessed functional capacity, one using the cycle ergometer and one with inspiratory muscle training (IMT) together with active exercises and early walking. One article reported a reduction in the incidence of atelectasis and pleural effusion with EM and one article reported improvements in the alveolus-artery gradient and inspiratory muscle power using an inspiratory muscle trainer combined with EM. Conclusion EM is effective in the prevention and rehabilitation of functional parameters after CABG surgery, by improving functional capacity, respiratory muscle power, quality of life and gas exchange, and reducing the incidence of atelectasis and pleural effusion.

Impact of the COVID-19 Outbreak on Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Brazil

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the routine of emergency centers around the world, including in Brazil, where the crisis has affected the volume of major cardiac surgeries such as coronary artery bypass grafting. Objective To analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the number of surgical procedures for coronary artery bypass grafting in Brazil. Methods An ecological, cross-sectional, quantitative, and descriptive study was conducted. Data for the period from July 2018 to June 2019 and from July 2020 to June 2021 were collected from SIHSUS using DATASUS/Tabwin. Results A global reduction of 26.58% was observed in the analyzed population, with on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting decreasing by 28.10%, and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting reduced by only 10.31%. Conclusion During the pandemic, there was a 26.58% reduction in the number of surgical procedures for myocardial revascularization in Brazil.

Early Six-Minute Walk Test May Predict Midterm Outcomes Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

ABSTRACT Objective: This study aims to investigate the ability of the six-minute walk distance (6MWD) as a prognostic marker for midterm clinical outcomes three months after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), to identify possible predictors of fall in 6MWD in the early postoperative period, and to establish the percentage fall in early postoperative 6MWD, considering the preoperative baseline as 100%. Methods: A prospective cohort of patients undergoing elective CABG were included. The percentage fall in 6MWD was assessed by the difference between preoperative and postoperative day (POD) five. Clinical outcomes were evaluated three months after hospital discharge. Results: There was a significant decrease in 6MWD on POD5 compared with preoperative baseline values (percentage fall of 32.5±16.5%, P<0.0001). Linear regression analysis showed an independent association of the percentage fall of 6MWD with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and preoperative inspiratory muscle strength. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the best cutoff value of percentage fall in 6MWD to predict poorer clinical outcomes at three months was 34.6% (area under the curve = 0.82, sensitivity = 78.95%, specificity = 76.19%, P=0.0001). Conclusion: This study indicates that a cutoff value of 34.6% in percentage fall of 6MWD on POD5 was able to predict poorer clinical outcomes at three months of follow-up after CABG. Use of CPB and preoperative inspiratory muscle strength were independent predictors of percentage fall of 6MWD in the postoperative period. These findings further support the clinical application of 6MWD and propose an inpatient preventive strategy to guide clinical management over time.

Prevalence of Surgical Myocardial Revascularization in Diabetics and Non-diabetics After Acute Myocardial Infarction

Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia. The main cause of death among diabetics is cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is a precursor to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Approximately 30% of diabetic patients with AMI require myocardial revascularization surgery (MRS). Objective To evaluate the prevalence of MRS in diabetic and non-diabetic patients after AMI in a hospital in the city Criciúma, Brazil, during the period from 2016 to 2019. Methods A cross-sectional study was carried out with secondary data collection, with analysis of 215 medical records of diabetic and non-diabetic patients with AMI, submitted or not to MRS during the study period. For statistical analysis, the Shapiro-Wilk test, Pearson's chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were used, with a significance level of α = 0.05. Results The frequency of diabetic AMI patients with hypertension (88.1%) was significantly higher (p<0.01) than of diabetic AMI patients without hypertension. Although no statistically significant differences were found in the other variables between the groups, smoking, hypertension and dyslipidemia were more prevalent in diabetic than in non-diabetic patients with AMI undergoing MRS. Conclusion The prevalence of MRS after AMI in diabetic patients was higher than in non-diabetic patients.
