Sport-related acute myocardial infarction; Context of onset and one-year follow-up
Background Sport-related (SR) acute coronary events are the main cause of sudden cardiac in the setting of sport activities; data are very scarce regarding the context of onset and the follow-up of SR acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods We prospectively invited subjects admitted in our University Hospital from April 2018 for a SR-AMI to participate in the IMACS observatory program which addresses to SR-AMI including a 12 months follow-up. Results From April 2018 to April 2019, 21 subjects were included. The mean age of this male population was 57.5 ± 11.0 (median 56). The context of event was available for 21 (provided by family for a subject with out of hospital (OH) SCA). Sport was…
Retinal optical coherence tomography angiography as a biomarker of acute kidney injury after acute coronary syndrome
Background Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is frequent and associated with long-term renal impairment and mortality. Retinal vessel density (RVD) measured by OCT-Angiography could reflect the global cardiovascular burden of ACS patients and thus provide a fast and non-invasive assessment of the systemic microcirculation, that may be involved in CIN occurrence. Methods Between October 2016 and March 2017, 452 ACS patients were admitted in our coronary care unit. Retinal OCT-A was performed within two days after PCI. Patients were divided in two groups, according to Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurrence (KDIGO …
