Sex differences in the management of patients with acute coronary syndrome: A population-based ecological cross-sectional study in Spain
2021
Abstract Introduction and objectives Despite evidence of a reduction in the incidence and mortality of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), some studies have highlighted differences in outcomes between men and women. We aimed to explore sex differences in the management and treatment of patients with ACS in Spain. Methods This ecological cross-sectional study combined ACS data from 10 Spanish registries (54 centres). Meta-regression analysis was performed using aggregated data of baseline characteristics, interventional procedures, treatments, and events that occurred during hospitalization and one-year follow-up. Results Aggregated data from 34 605 patients (75.1% men) was included. ST-segment e…
Carga de comorbilidad y beneficio de la revascularización en ancianos con síndrome coronario agudo
2021
Introduction and objectives: To evaluate the interaction between comorbidity burden and the benefits of in-hospital revascularization in elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS). Methods: This retrospective study included 7211 patients aged ≥ 70 years from 11 Spanish NSTEACS registries. Six comorbidities were evaluated: diabetes, peripheral artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, chronic pulmonary disease, renal failure, and anemia. A propensity score was estimated to enable an adjusted comparison of in-hospital revascularization and conservative management. The end point was 1-year all-cause mortality. Results: In total, 1090 patients (15%) died. Th…

Background: Ischemic postconditioning (PCON) appears as a potentially beneficial tool in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We evaluated the effect of PCON on microvascular obstruction (MVO) in STEMI patients and in an experimental swine model. Methods: A prospective randomized study in patients and an experimental study in swine were carried out in two university hospitals in Spain. 101 consecutive STEMI patients were randomized to undergo primary angio-plasty followed by PCON or primary angioplasty alone (non-PCON). Using late gadolinium enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance, infarct size and MVO were quantified (% of left ventricular mass). In swine, using an ang…
Prognosis Impact of Diabetes in Elderly Women and Men with Non-ST Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome
2021
Few studies have addressed to date the interaction between sex and diabetes mellitus (DM) in the prognosis of elderly patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTEACS). Our aim was to address the role of DM in the prognosis of non-selected elderly patients with NSTEACS according to sex. A retrospective analysis from 11 Spanish NSTEACS registries was conducted, including patients aged ≥70 years. The primary end point was one-year all-cause mortality. A total of 7211 patients were included, 2,770 (38.4%) were women, and 39.9% had DM. Compared with the men, the women were older (79.95 ± 5.75 vs. 78.45 ± 5.43 years, p <

Purpose: Ischemic Postconditioning (PCON) appears as a potentially beneficial tool to complement primary angioplasty in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We evaluated the impact of PCON on Microvascular Obstruction (MVO) both in patients and in a highly controlled swine model. Methods: In a multicenter study, 101 patients with a first STEMI were randomized to undergo primary angioplasty followed by PCON or primary angioplasty alone (non-PCON). MVO (lack of contrast uptake in the core of the hyperenhanced infarcted area) was quantified in late enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. In an anterior STEMI swine model based on a 90-min angioplasty balloon coronary occl…
Perioperative and Periprocedural Management of Antithrombotic Therapy: Consensus Document of SEC, SEDAR, SEACV, SECTCV, AEC, SECPRE, SEPD, SEGO, SEHH…
2018
During the last few years, the number of patients receiving anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy has increased worldwide. Since this is a chronic treatment, patients receiving it can be expected to need some kind of surgery or intervention during their lifetime that may require treatment discontinuation. The decision to withdraw antithrombotic therapy depends on the patient's thrombotic risk versus hemorrhagic risk. Assessment of both factors will show the precise management of anticoagulant and antiplatelet therapy in these scenarios. The aim of this consensus document, coordinated by the Cardiovascular Thrombosis Working Group of the Spanish Society of Cardiology, and endorsed by most o…
Carga de comorbilidad y beneficio de la revascularización en ancianos con síndrome coronario agudo
2021
Resumen Introduccion y objetivos El objetivo es evaluar la interaccion entre carga de comorbilidad y beneficio de la revascularizacion en ancianos con sindrome coronario agudo sin elevacion del ST (SCASEST). Metodos Estudio retrospectivo que incluyo a 7.211 pacientes de edad ≥ 70 anos y procedentes de 11 registros de SCASEST espanoles. Se evaluaron 6 comorbilidades (diabetes mellitus, arteriopatia periferica, enfermedad cerebrovascular, enfermedad pulmonar cronica, insuficiencia renal y anemia). Se calculo una puntuacion de propension para comparar el efecto de la revascularizacion frente al tratamiento conservador. El objetivo fue la mortalidad a 1 ano. Resultados Al ano habian fallecido 1…
Estrategia invasiva en pacientes con diabetes avanzada y síndrome coronario agudo sin elevación del segmento ST. Hallazgos angiográficos y evolución …
2006
Introduccion y objetivos La diabetes avanzada se puede asociar con una enfermedad coronaria difusa de dificil revascularizacion. Se estudiaron los hallazgos angiograficos y la evolucion clinica de pacientes con diabetes avanzada (insulinodependencia o mas de 5 anos con farmacos) y sindrome coronario agudo sin elevacion del segmento ST tratados con estrategia invasiva. Metodos Se incluyo a 141 pacientes. En la coronariografia se cuantifico la extension de la enfermedad coronaria mediante un sistema de puntuacion sobre 29 segmentos. Durante 1 ano se recogio el evento combinado de muerte, infarto o reingreso por angina. Resultados La extension de la enfermedad coronaria se asocio con 4 variabl…
Invasive Strategy in Patients With Advanced Diabetes and Non-ST-Segment Elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome. Angiographic Findings and Clinical Follow-…
2006
Introduction and objectives Advanced diabetes can be associated with diffuse coronary artery disease that is difficult to treat by revascularization. We studied angiographic findings and disease progression in patients with advanced diabetes (either insulin-dependent or taking antidiabetic drugs for >5 years) and non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome who were being treated using an invasive strategy. Methods The study included 141 patients. The extent of the coronary artery disease was quantified using a score derived from a 29-segment coronary angiogram. The composite endpoint was death, myocardial infarction, or readmission for unstable angina within one year of follow-up. Results The …
