“…In Côte d'Ivoire, the prevalence of acute coronary syndrome was 13.5% in 2013 at the Abidjan Heart Institute [3]. In Benin, the prevalence of coronary artery disease among survivors of stroke was estimated at 49.5% between 2012 and 2019 [4]. In Togo between 2006 and 2010, the mortality rate related to cardiovascular disease increased from 5.2% to 11.4%; acute coronary syndrome represented 7.3% of reason for hospitalization [5].…”

Objectives: Interventional cardiology is emerging in Togo. The aim of this study is to assess the knowledge and attitudes regarding coronary angiography and angioplasty of physicians involved in the management of cardiovascular emergencies in Togo. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study that was conducted for three months from January 15 to June 30, 2022 and that focused on doctors involved in the management of cardiovascular emergencies in Togo, who volunteered to participate in the study. Results: We interviewed 150 doctors with an average age of 32.8 5.6 years. Eight (10.7%) physicians reported having no knowledge of coronary angiography. All physicians recognized acute coronary syndromes (ACS) with persistent ST-segment elevation, the positive myocardial ischemia test as an indication of coronary angiography. Indications of coronary angiography, such as ventricular rhythm disorders, unexplained heart failure and stable angina were not well understood by 20 (13.3%), 19 (12.7%) and 9 (6.0%) respectively. All doctors knew that angioplasty could be accompanied by complications, but 48% were unaware of the skin complications of irradiation. The availability of coronary angiography and angioplasty in cardiac practice in Togo was ignored by 23 physicians or 15.3%. Coronary angiography and coronary angioplasty were perceived as very expensive by 70.7% of physicians. The cost of these procedures was a barrier to their prescription among 78 doctors (52. %). Conclusion: Coronary interventional cardiology is performed routinely in Togo. Physicians involved in the management of cardiovascular emergencies have a level of knowledge and attitudes that need to be improved.

Backgrounds: The prevalence of cigarette consumption in Indonesia has reached a level that is cause for concern. Currently, more than one-third (36.3%) of Indonesia's population is classified as smokers. The World Health Organization (WHO) ranks Indonesia as the third-largest cigarette market in the world, after China and India. In fact, the prevalence of adult male smoking in Indonesia is the highest (68.8%) in the world, so tobacco consumption has many negative impacts on health, one of which is the main cause of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), such as coronary artery disease (CAD). Tobacco control is one of the efforts that can be made to prevent non-communicable diseases, namely coronary heart disease. Coronary artery disease is a pathological condition that arises due to the accumulation of atheroma in the blood vessels that supply blood to the heart, causing narrowing of the coronary arteries. Objectives: The aim of this study is to identifying tobacco as the main cause of non-communicable diseases such as coronary artery disease and tobacco control policies Methods: The method of this study is a literature review using PRISMA as a guide. Articles obtained from databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar with specific relevant keywords “tobacco AND coronary artery disease”, “tobacco AND Non-communicable disease”, “tobacco control”, and “tobacco policy”. Article restricted to only original study within 2019 until 2023. Results: Tobacco control and prevention efforts that can be carried out regarding NCDs according to the 30 articles are controlling media by a massive pictorial warning; prohibition advertising, promotion, and sponsorship; controlling the price of tobacco by increasing the excise, tax, and selling price; restriction on smoking area, and smoking cessation therapy in a health facility that covered by insurance. Nicotine replacement therapy could be the choice for smoking cessation in CAD patients. Conclusions: Since limited research on smoking cessation therapy, especially in patients with CAD, it is necessary to develop various therapeutic methods that are easier, affordable, and safe.
