Project description:Background In participants with concomitant chronic coronary disease and advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), the effect of treatment strategies on the timing of dialysis initiation is not well characterized. Methods and Results In ISCHEMIA-CKD (International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches-Chronic Kidney Disease), 777 participants with advanced CKD and moderate or severe ischemia were randomized to either an initial invasive or conservative management strategy. Herein, we compare the proportion of randomized participants with non-dialysis-requiring CKD at baseline (n=362) who initiated dialysis and compare the time to dialysis initiation between invasive versus conservative management arms. Using multivariable Cox regression analysis, we also sought to identify the effect of invasive versus conservative chronic coronary disease management strategies on dialysis initiation. At a median follow-up of 23 months (25th-75th interquartile range, 14-32 months), dialysis was initiated in 18.9% of participants (36/190) in the invasive strategy and 16.9% of participants (29/172) in the conservative strategy (P=0.22). The median time to dialysis initiation was 6.0 months (interquartile range, 3.0-16.0 months) in the invasive group and 18.2 months (interquartile range, 12.2-25.0 months) in the conservative group (P=0.004), with no difference in procedural acute kidney injury rates between the groups (7.8% versus 5.4%; P=0.26). Baseline clinical factors associated with earlier dialysis initiation were lower baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (hazard ratio [HR] associated with 5-unit decrease, 2.08 [95% CI, 1.72-2.56]; P<0.001), diabetes (HR, 2.30 [95% CI, 1.28-4.13]; P=0.005), hypertension (HR, 7.97 [95% CI, 1.09-58.21]; P=0.041), and Hispanic ethnicity (HR, 2.34 [95% CI, 1.22-4.47]; P=0.010). Conclusions In participants with non-dialysis-requiring CKD in ISCHEMIA-CKD, randomization to an invasive chronic coronary disease management strategy (relative to a conservative chronic coronary disease management strategy) is associated with an accelerated time to initiation of maintenance dialysis for kidney failure.

Project description:BackgroundPainless myocardial ischemia (PMI) is associated with poor outcomes in the general population. We hypothesized that the presence of PMI is inversely related to the level of kidney function and is associated with impaired survival in chronic kidney disease (CKD).MethodsA total of 356 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention were assessed for PMI, which was defined as the absence of chest pain in response to balloon dilation of the affected vessel. Cox proportional hazards analysis was used to calculate 10-year all-cause mortality.ResultsThere was an increase in PMI occurrence by strata of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), whereby PMI was present in only 20.6% of individuals with eGFR ≥ 90 ml/min/1.73 m(2), but was found in 50.0% of individuals with eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73 m(2) (p = 0.004 for trend). Classification of individuals as having either CKD or PMI showed significant differences in adjusted mortality between groups (p < 0.001 for trend), with individuals having both CKD and PMI demonstrating the highest 10-year mortality. Compared to individuals with neither CKD nor PMI, individuals with CKD and no PMI had a hazard ratio (HR) for mortality of 1.64 (95% CI: 1.03-2.63, p = 0.038), while individuals with both PMI and CKD had an HR of 2.08 (1.30-3.33, p = 0.002).ConclusionPMI is common in the CKD population, is inversely related to the level of eGFR, and confers a substantially increased risk in CKD. These findings may partially explain the high mortality traditionally attributed to cardiovascular disease in CKD patients.

Project description:Contrast-flow quantitative flow ratio (cQFR) is a new technology for quantitative evaluation of coronary stenosis using computational fluid dynamics based on angiograms. The aim of this study was to assess the sensitivity and specificity of cQFR to detect myocardial ischemia using stress magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a reference standard. Patients who received stress MRI and coronary angiography were selected from the hospital database. Relevant ischemia on stress MRI was defined as a perfusion deficit in ≥ 2 of 16 segments. cQFR was quantitated based on 3-dimensional quantitative coronary angiography using QAngio XA3D1.1 software by two blinded and independent investigators. A cQFR of ≤ 0.80 was considered abnormal. Among 87 patients 230 vessels met the criteria for full analysis by cQFR (88%). In vascular territories with a significant perfusion deficit, cQFR was significantly lower compared to areas with normal perfusion (0.72 (0.62-0.78) vs. 0.96 (0.89-0.99); p < 0.001). The sensitivity of cQFR in detecting significant epicardial stenoses of coronary vessels with documented ischemia in stress MRI was 81% (68-90%), the specificity was 88% (82-92%). Diameter stenoses (DS) and area stenoses (AS) in vessels with positive stress MRI were significantly higher than in vessels without ischemia (DS 59.1% (49.4-68.4%) vs. 34.8% (27.1-46.1%) p < 0.001; AS 75.6% (63.0-85.2%) vs. 45.0% (30.8-63.6%), p < 0.001). The analysis reveals a high correlation between coronary stenosis measured by cQFR and ischemic areas detected by stress MRI. The data set the stage to plan randomized studies assessing cQFR measurements with regard to clinical outcomes.

Project description:Background and objectivesAlthough patient-reported symptoms often precede acute presentations of cardiovascular disease, patients with nondialysis-requiring CKD are less likely to have typical symptoms of atherosclerotic disease when presenting with acute myocardial infarction. However, the associations between typical atherosclerotic symptoms and subsequent risk of myocardial infarction are unknown in ambulatory patients with CKD.Design, setting, participants, & measurementsTo determine whether typical atherosclerotic symptoms are associated with risk for subsequent myocardial infarction in people with CKD, we examined participants from the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort Study. Chest pain, shortness of breath, and inability to climb stairs were evaluated annually using the Kidney Disease Quality of Life Instrument. Associations between categorical time-updated symptoms and physician-adjudicated incident myocardial infarction were assessed using Cox regression models.ResultsAmong 3910 participants (mean age of 58±11 years; mean eGFR =44±15 ml/min per 1.73 m2), there were 476 incident myocardial infarctions over a median follow-up period of 10.4 years (interquartile range, 5.36-12.6 years). Median time from symptom assessment to incident myocardial infarction was 213 days (interquartile range, 111-333 days). Compared with no symptoms, mild, and moderate or worse, symptoms of chest pain (hazard ratio, 1.30; 95% confidence interval, 1.01 to 1.67; and hazard ratio, 1.70; 95% confidence interval, 1.27 to 2.27, respectively) and shortness of breath (hazard ratio, 1.37; 95% confidence interval, 1.10 to 1.70; and hazard ratio, 1.33; 95% confidence interval, 1.05 to 1.69, respectively) were significantly associated with greater risks for subsequent myocardial infarction. Participants reporting mild and severe limitations in climbing stairs (versus no limitation) had significantly higher adjusted risk of myocardial infarction (hazard ratio, 1.44; 95% confidence interval, 1.10 to 1.89; and hazard ratio, 1.89; 95% confidence interval, 1.44 to 2.49, respectively).ConclusionsIn a large ambulatory cohort of adults with CKD, symptoms of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease were strongly associated with a higher risk for subsequent myocardial infarction.PodcastThis article contains a podcast at https://www.asn-online.org/media/podcast/CJASN/2022_03_17_CJN12080921.mp3.

Project description:IntroductionCoronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is emerging as an important noninvasive testing modality for coronary angiography. The performance characteristic of CCTA in patients with advanced kidney disease is unknown.MethodsWe performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies specifically investigating the sensitivity and specificity of CCTA compared to coronary angiogram as a reference standard in patients with advanced kidney disease, defined as dialysis dependence or nearing kidney transplantation. Two independent investigators assessed studies for inclusion/exclusion, quality, and characteristics, while a third investigator adjudicated.ResultsWe identified 4 studies including a total of 217 patients, of whom 159 were dialysis dependent. Three of the 4 studies had a high risk of bias in patient selection and study flow, while 1 study rated low in all areas of bias. The studies were heterogeneous in their patient selection and CCTA protocol but consistent in their definition of obstructive coronary artery disease. The pooled sensitivity and specificity for CCTA were 0.96 (0.87-0.99) and 0.66 (0.57-0.74), respectively. When we restricted the analysis to dialysis-dependent patients, the pooled sensitivity and specificity for CCTA were 0.99 (0.74-1.00) and 0.67 (0.49-0.82), respectively.ConclusionsBased on limited data, CCTA appears to have comparable sensitivity but lower specificity relative to the non-kidney disease population.

Project description:ObjectivesTo establish a nomogram for contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) risk assessment among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).DesignProspective observational cohort study.SettingSouthern China.InterventionsNone.Participants643 consecutive patients with CKD (defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate calculated by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula <60 mL/min/1.73 mm2) were enrolled.Outcome measuresThe end point was CI-AKI defined as serum creatinine elevation ≥0.5 mg/dL or 25% from baseline within the first 48-72 hours following contrast exposure.Predictors of CI-AKI were selected by multivariable logistic regression and stepwise approach. A nomogram based on these predictors was constructed and compared with the classic Mehran Score. For validation, a bootstrap method (1000 times) was performed.ResultsThe nomogram including age, weight, heart rate, hypotension, PCI and β-blocker demonstrated a better predictive value than the classic Mehran Score (area under the curve: 0.78 vs 0.71, p=0.024), as well as a well-fitted calibration curve (χ2=12.146, p=0.145). Validation through the bootstrap method (1000 times) also indicated a good discriminative power (adjusted C-statistic: 0.76).ConclusionsWith fewer predictors and higher discriminative power, the present nomogram may be a simple and reliable tool to identify patients with CKD at risk of CI-AKI, whereas further external validations are needed.

Project description:Anomalous right coronary artery from left coronary sinus can have dynamic narrowing and kinking causing symptoms of myocardial ischemia and sudden cardiac death. Surgical repair of the anomaly is required in the symptomatic patient because of risk of ischemia or ventricular arrhythmia. Asymptomatic incidentally diagnosed low-risk patients can be closely followed up with exercise restriction as per present guideline.

Project description:Limited data exist regarding the outcomes of patients with nonobstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) detected by computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) or invasive coronary angiography (ICA). Our aim was to compare the prognosis of patients with nonobstructive coronary artery plaques with that of patients with entirely normal arteries. The MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases were searched. Studies comparing the prognosis of individuals with nonobstructive CAD versus normal coronary arteries detected by CTCA or ICA were included. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiac events (MACE) including cardiac death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, hospitalization due to unstable angina or revascularization. A fixed effects model was chosen to pool the estimates of odds ratios (ORs). Forty-eight studies with 64,905 individuals met the inclusion criteria. Patients in the nonobstructive CAD arm had a significantly higher risk of MACE compared to their counterparts in the normal artery arm (pooled OR, 3.17, 95% confidence interval, 2.77-3.63). When excluding revascularization as an endpoint, hard cardiac composite outcomes were also more frequent among patients with nonobstructive CAD (pooled OR, 2.10; 95%CI, 1.79-2.45). All subgroups (age, sex, follow-up duration, different outcomes, diagnostic modality, and CAD risk factor) consistently showed a poorer prognosis with nonobstructive CAD than with normal arteries. When dividing the studies into a CTCA and ICA group for further analysis based on the indications for diagnostic tests, we also found nonobstructive CAD to be associated with a higher risk of MACE in both stable and acute chest pain. Patients with nonobstructive CAD had a poorer prognosis compared with their counterparts with normal arteries.

Project description:BackgroundNormal or near normal coronary arteries (NNCA) or nonobstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) are commonly found on invasive coronary angiography (ICA).HypothesisWe aimed to determine long-term outcomes by severity of CAD in a contemporary cohort of patients undergoing ICA for evaluation for ischemic heart disease.MethodsWe assessed a consecutive cohort of 925 patients who underwent non-emergent ICA over 24 months. Cardiac death (CD), nonfatal myocardial infarction (NFMI), late revascularization, and medication use were assessed.ResultsFollow-up data was available in 850 patients. Of patients without heart failure, at a median of 6.0 years, there was a significant decrease in survival free from CD or NFMI, and from all cardiac events, for those with obstructive CAD compared with patients with NNCAs or nonobstructive CAD (p < .001 for both). No differences between NNCA and nonobstructive CAD patients in rates of CD or NFMI (2.0% vs. 2.1%/year, p = .58) or all cardiac events (2.4% vs. 2.9%/year, p = .84) were observed.ConclusionLong-term follow-up in a contemporary cohort of consecutive patients undergoing non-emergent ICA for detection of CAD showed no difference in annual rates of CD or NFMI, or total cardiac events, in patients with NNCAs versus those with nonobstructive CAD, whereas patients with obstructive CAD had significantly more events. Event rates were low and similar by gender. Use of aspirin, lipid lowering therapy, and beta-blockers increased in all subgroups after ICA. We speculate this may explain the low incidence of subsequent cardiac events, and similar event rates in patients with NNCA and nonobstructive CAD, even in patients presenting with non-ST-elevation MI.
