Objective. Assess time and possible predictors of restenosis after the implantation of first- and second-generation coronary stents and bare metal stents (BMSs) in patients with stable coronary artery disease after elective coronary stenting.Materials and Methods. From 2010 to 2014, 3,732 (2,897 males, 60 [53; 68] years old) patients with stable exertional angina of functional class I–III underwent coronary stenting. From 2014 to 2017, 1,487 (1,173 males and 314 females) patients returned. Repeat coronary angiography was performed in 699 patients.Results. A total of 644 first-generation stents, 5,321 second-generation stents, and 473 BMSs were implanted. During the control coronary angiography, contrasting was repeated for 193 first-generation stents, 899 second-generation stents, and 77 BMSs. Restenosis (stenosis of 50 % or more in the previously stented segment) was detected in 28 (14 % of angiographic control) first-generation drug-eluting stents, 94 (10 %) second-generation drug-eluting stents, and 21 (27 %) BMSs. Patients with BMS restenosis returned significantly earlier than patients with restenosis of the first- and second-generation drug-eluting stents (11 [6, 27] months vs. 32 [11; 48]) months and 24 [12; 42] months, respectively; p<0.05). The initial and repeat levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were higher in patients with restenosis (2.2 [1.2, 5.0] mg / L vs. 2.1 [1.0, 4.6] mg / L, respectively; p> 0.05) than in patients without restenosis (2.0 [0.9, 4.2] mg / L vs. 1.9 [0.7, 3.5] mg / L respectively, p>0.05). Blood levels of hs-CRP ≥2 mg / L according to receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis at return visit were used as a predictor to identify restenosis of stents with a diameter <3 mm and a length >25 mm – area under the curve (AUC) 0.67 (95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.51–0.84), p <0.05, odds ratio 3.7 (95 % CI 1.1–12.1), p<0.05. Stent type had a significant effect on the time to restenosis in the survival analysis (p<0.0005).Conclusion. The time from coronary stenting to the return visit of patients presenting with restenosis after the implantation of first- and second-generation drug-eluting stents is consistent; median time of the return visit of patients with restenosis of the first-generation stents was 2–3 years after coronary stenting. Blood levels of hs-CRP ≥2 mg / L at the return visit is a predictor of restenosis of stents with a diameter <3 mm and a length >25 mm.
During exercise an increase in oxygen delivery to working muscles is achieved through well‑coordinated interaction of many organs and systems: the heart, lungs, blood vessels, skeletal muscles, and the autonomic nervous system. In heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction, all mechanisms involved in the normal exercise tolerance are impaired. In the first part of this review, the impairments of the left heart chambers are considered ‑ left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, the weakening of the contractile and chronotropic reserves, left atrium dysfunction; the possible ways of their medical correction are also presented.
У здоровой женщины при нормально протекающей беременности структурно-функциональные изменения сердца носят адаптивный характер, выражены незначительно и полностью нормализуются после родов. У беременной с теми или иными заболеваниями сердца адаптационные возможности снижены, поэтому на любом этапе беременности могут возникать патологические изменения, осложняющие ее течение и приводящие к неблагоприятным исходам. Кроме того, при любой беременности возможно развитие новых заболеваний сердца, которые могут быть фатальными. Вот почему эхокардиографическая оценка структурно-функциональных изменений сердца является необходимой как при нормальной беременности, так и на фоне сопутствующих сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний. In a healthy woman with a normal pregnancy, structural and functional changes in the heart are adaptive in nature, are slight and are completely normalized after childbirth. A pregnant woman with heart diseases has reduced adaptive capacity, therefore, at any stage of pregnancy, pathological changes can occur that complicate its course and lead to adverse outcomes. In addition, any pregnancy may develop new heart diseases, which can be fatal. That is why an echocardiographic assessment of structural and functional changes in the heart is necessary both during normal pregnancy and in the background of concomitant cardiovascular diseases.
Aim. Coronary stenting is the evidence-based treatment approach of stable angina. The objective was to determine the incidence of restenosis or atherosclerosis progression which led to the need for coronary angiography according to a single center registry data. Materials and methods. The procedure and clinical data of 3732 (2897 males) consecutive stable coronary artery disease patients undergoing coronary stenting, over five years between March 2010 and September 2014, were subject of this study. Over the next 4 years, 1487 (1173 males) patients were re-evaluated due to angina reoccurrence. 699 patients demonstrated the indications for coronary angiography. Results. The restenosis of the previously stented segment was detected in 84 (12%) cases, the progression of coronary atherosclerosis in 306 (44%), the combination of restenosis and atherosclerosis progression in 63 (9%), and the absence of these complications in 245 (35%) cases. The progression of coronary atherosclerosis was the leading indication for the repeat angiography and revascularization (44 and 58%, respectively); p0.05. The basal level of hsCRP2 mg/l had a prognostic significance for the development of combined event (the restenosis and atherosclerosis progression): AUC 0.65 (0.500.75), OR 3.0 (1.17.9), p0.05. Conclusion. The progression of coronary atherosclerosis was the leading indication for the repeat angiography and repeat revascularization during 2 years after coronary stenting. The hsCRP level 2 mg/l at baseline had a prognostic significance for the development of restenosis in previously stented segment and coronary atherosclerosis progression.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
