Detection of a High Ratio of Soluble to Membrane-Bound LOX-1 in Aspirated Coronary Thrombi From Patients With ST-Segment-Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

ABSTRACT: Background The circulating level of soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (sLOX-1) is a valuable biomarker of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The most electronegative low-density lipoprotein, L5, signals through LOX-1 to trigger atherogenesis. We examined the characteristics of LOX-1 and the role of L5 in aspirated coronary thrombi of AMI patients. Methods and Results Intracoronary thrombi were aspirated by performing interventional thrombosuction in patients with ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI; n=32) or non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (n=12). LOX-1 level and the ratio of sLOX-1 to membrane-bound LOX-1 were higher in thrombi of STEMI patients than in those of non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients. In all aspirated thrombi, LOX-1 colocalized with apoB100. When we explored the role of L5 in AMI, deconvolution microscopy showed that particles of L5 but not L1 (the least electronegative low-density lipoprotein) quickly formed aggregates prone to retention in thrombi. Treating human monocytic THP-1 cells with L5 or L1 showed that L5 induced cellular adhesion and promoted the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages in a dose-dependent manner. In a second cohort of AMI patients, the L5 percentage and plasma concentration of sLOX-1 were higher in STEMI patients (n=33) than in non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients (n=25), and sLOX-1 level positively correlated with L5 level in AMI patients. Conclusions The level of LOX-1 and the ratio of sLOX-1 to membrane-bound LOX-1 in aspirated thrombi, as well as the circulating level of sLOX-1 were higher in STEMI patients than in non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients. L5 may play a role in releasing a high level of sLOX-1 into the circulation of STEMI patients.

Project description:ImportanceChallenges to improving ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) care are formidable in low- to middle-income countries because of several system-level factors.ObjectiveTo examine access to reperfusion and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) during STEMI using a hub-and-spoke model.Design, setting, and participantsThis multicenter, prospective, observational study of a quality improvement program studied 2420 patients 20 years or older with symptoms or signs consistent with STEMI at primary care clinics, small hospitals, and PCI hospitals in the southern state of Tamil Nadu in India. Data were collected from the 4 clusters before implementation of the program (preimplementation data). We required a minimum of 12 weeks for the preimplementation data with the period extending from August 7, 2012, through January 5, 2013. The program was then implemented in a sequential manner across the 4 clusters, and data were collected in the same manner (postimplementation data) from June 12, 2013, through June 24, 2014, for a mean 32-week period.ExposuresCreation of an integrated, regional quality improvement program that linked the 35 spoke health care centers to the 4 large PCI hub hospitals and leveraged recent developments in public health insurance schemes, emergency medical services, and health information technology.Main outcomes and measuresPrimary outcomes focused on the proportion of patients undergoing reperfusion, timely reperfusion, and postfibrinolysis angiography and PCI. Secondary outcomes were in-hospital and 1-year mortality.ResultsA total of 2420 patients with STEMI (2034 men [84.0%] and 386 women [16.0%]; mean [SD] age, 54.7 [12.2] years) (898 in the preimplementation phase and 1522 in the postimplementation phase) were enrolled, with 1053 patients (43.5%) from the spoke health care centers. Missing data were common for systolic blood pressure (213 [8.8%]), heart rate (223 [9.2%]), and anterior MI location (279 [11.5%]). Overall reperfusion use and times to reperfusion were similar (795 [88.5%] vs 1372 [90.1%]; P = .21). Coronary angiography (314 [35.0%] vs 925 [60.8%]; P < .001) and PCI (265 [29.5%] vs 707 [46.5%]; P < .001) were more commonly performed during the postimplementation phase. In-hospital mortality was not different (52 [5.8%] vs 85 [5.6%]; P = .83), but 1-year mortality was lower in the postimplementation phase (134 [17.6%] vs 179 [14.2%]; P = .04), and this difference remained consistent after multivariable adjustment (adjusted odds ratio, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.58-0.98; P = .04).Conclusions and relevanceA hub-and-spoke model in South India improved STEMI care through greater use of PCI and may improve 1-year mortality. This model may serve as an example for developing STEMI systems of care in other low- to middle-income countries.

Project description:BackgroundThe need for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and staged PCI strategy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with multivessel coronary disease is well documented. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency, safety, and cost benefit of quantitative flow ratio (QFR)-guided staged PCI in patients with STEMI.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study involving 2256 patients meeting STEMI criteria having at least one lesion (≥50 %) in non-infarct-related (NIR) arteries. These patients had undergone primary PCI for infarct-related (IR) arteries and staged PCI for NIR arteries. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the strategy guided either by QFR or quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) as determined by the clinicians during primary PCI in real-world. For patients guided by QFR, a threshold of ≤0.80 serves as the cut-off value for determining the need for PCI. We recorded the demographics, clinical data, and QFR values of none-infarct-related arteries. The efficiency, safety, and cost benefit of the QFR-guided staged PCI were evaluated.ResultsThe QCA-guided group had a higher rate of Killip II. In the QFR-guided group, there was a higher proportion of left anterior descending coronary artery lesions in infarct-related arteries. The mean QFR value of non-infarct-related (NIR) arteries remained consistent at 0.83 across both groups, irrespective of whether the measurement was taken during the primary PCI or the staged PCI phase. Among patients with QFR ≤0.8, the QFR values during staged PCI were significantly higher than that during primary PCI, with a significantly greater increase compared to patients with QFR >0.8. The proportion of staged PCI, number of stents per patient, and cost of staged PCI per patient were significantly lower in the QFR-guided group compared to the QCA-guided group. In the long-term follow-up period, there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of major adverse cardiac events and clinic visits, except for target vessel revascularization.ConclusionsQFR resulted in a reduction in the proportion of STEMI patients with multivessel coronary disease undergoing invasive coronary angiography and staged PCI. Furthermore, it decreased the incidence of target vessel revascularization (TVR) and medical costs, without increasing major adverse cardiovascular events. Our future work will focus on large multi-center perspective studies for the feasibility of QFR guided staged PCI in patients with STEMI.
