    BACKGROUND: ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) is a key enzyme in de novo lipogenesis that generates acetyl-CoA from citrate. Although fatty acids are required for energy production and biomass synthesis in the heart, the regulatory mechanisms of ACLY-mediated de novo lipogenesis in pathological cardiac fibroblasts remain unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the biological role of ACLY in cardiac remodeling. METHODS: Adeno-associated virus serotype 9-mediated shRNA targeting Acly was intravenously injected into C57BL/6J male mice. The mice were subsequently continuously infused with a mixture of angiotensin II and phenylephrine. Cardiac phenotypes were evaluated via histological staining. Cell proliferation assays, stable isotope tracing with 13C-labeled glucose, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays were performed using human cardiac fibroblasts. RESULTS: ACLY expression was upregulated in the heart sections of mice treated with angiotensin II/phenylephrine, in particular in fibrotic areas. Masson trichrome staining revealed that Acly gene silencing significantly reduced cardiac fibrosis in these mice. Both siRNA-mediated ACLY knockdown and pharmacological ACLY inhibition suppressed the proliferation and expression of fibrous proteins in cultured human cardiac fibroblasts stimulated with transforming growth factor-β. Mechanistically, ACLY inhibition reduced de novo lipogenesis, limiting the fatty acid supply essential for cellular growth and proliferation. It also decreased H3K9 and H3K27 acetylation, in addition to the presence of acetylated H3K9 and H3K27 at the promoter regions of fibrotic genes. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings demonstrate that ACLY plays an important role in maladaptive cardiac fibrosis. ACLY could be a novel therapeutic target to prevent the development of heart failure.

    BACKGROUND: Coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is widely used for risk stratification. However, in patients with established coronary artery disease, its clinical implication and relationship with plaque vulnerability are unclear. We sought to correlate the CACS and plaque vulnerability assessed by optical coherence tomography. METHODS: Patients with coronary artery disease who had CACS and optical coherence tomography before percutaneous coronary intervention were included. Patients were divided into 5 groups based on CACS: CACS of 0, 1 to 99, 100 to 399, 400 to 999, and ≥1000. Optical coherence tomography-derived vulnerable features in culprit plaque were compared between the groups. RESULTS: In 460 patients, the prevalence of lipid-rich plaque, macrophage, and cholesterol crystal significantly differed among the 5 groups, being lowest in the patients with a CACS of 0. The prevalence of thin-cap fibroatheroma tended to be lower in those with a CACS of 0. No significant difference in vulnerable features was observed between the 4 groups with CACS >0. In the 2-group comparison between the group with a CACS of 0 and the other 4 groups combined, the prevalence of lipid-rich plaque (60.5% versus 85.9%; P<0.001), macrophage (48.8% versus 74.1%; P<0.001), thin-cap fibroatheroma (16.3% versus 35.0%; P=0.013), and cholesterol crystal (11.6% versus 32.9%; P=0.004) was significantly lower in the patients with CACS of 0. CACS of 0 was independently negatively associated with lipid-rich plaque, macrophage, thin-cap fibroatheroma, and cholesterol crystal after adjustment for patient characteristics. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with a CACS of 0 have a significantly lower prevalence of vulnerable plaque features compared with those with CACS >0 in patients with established coronary artery disease.

    AIMS: Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can identify high-risk plaques indicative of worsening prognosis in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). However, manual OCT analysis has several limitations. In this study, we aim to construct a deep-learning model capable of automatically predicting ACS prognosis from patient OCT images following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND RESULTS: Post-PCI OCT images from 418 patients with ACS were input into a deep-learning model comprising a convolutional neural network (CNN) and transformer. The primary endpoint was target vessel failure (TVF). Model performances were evaluated using Harrell's C-index and compared against conventional models based on human observation of quantitative (minimum lumen area, minimum stent area, average reference lumen area, stent expansion ratio, and lesion length) and qualitative (irregular protrusion, stent thrombus, malapposition, major stent edge dissection, and thin-cap fibroatheroma) factors. GradCAM activation maps were created after extracting attention layers by using the transformer architecture. A total of 60 patients experienced TVF during follow-up (median 961 days). The C-index for predicting TVF was 0.796 in the deep-learning model, which was significantly higher than that of the conventional model comprising only quantitative factors (C-index: 0.640) and comparable to that of the conventional model, including both quantitative and qualitative factors (C-index: 0.789). GradCAM heat maps revealed high activation corresponding to well-known high-risk OCT features. CONCLUSION: The CNN and transformer-based deep-learning model enabled fully automatic prognostic prediction in patients with ACS, with a predictive ability comparable to a conventional survival model using manual human analysis. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study was registered in the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trial Registry (UMIN000049237).

    BACKGROUND: Coronary artery calcification is an integral part of atherosclerosis. It has been suggested that early coronary artery calcification is associated with active inflammation, and advanced calcification forms as inflammation subsides. Inflammation is also an important factor in plaque vulnerability. However, the relationship between coronary artery calcium burden, vascular inflammation, and plaque vulnerability has not been fully investigated. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to correlate calcified plaque burden (CPB) at the culprit lesion with vascular inflammation and plaque vulnerability. METHODS: Patients with coronary artery disease who had both computed tomography angiography and optical coherence tomography were included. The authors divided the patients into 4 groups: 1 group without calcification at the culprit lesion; and 3 groups based on the CPB tertiles. CPB was calculated as calcified plaque volume divided by vessel volume in the culprit lesion. The authors compared pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation for vascular inflammation and optical coherence tomography-derived vulnerable features among the 4 groups. RESULTS: Among 578 patients, the highest CPB tertile showed significantly lower PCAT attenuation of culprit vessel compared with the other groups. The prevalence of features of plaque vulnerability (including lipid-rich plaque, macrophage, and microvessel) was also lowest in the highest CPB tertile. In the patients with calcification, higher age, statin use, and lower PCAT attenuation were independently associated with CPB. CONCLUSIONS: Greater calcium burden is associated with a lower level of vascular inflammation and plaque vulnerability. A greater calcium burden may represent advanced stable plaque without significant inflammatory activity.

    BACKGROUND: Vulnerable plaque presents prognostic implications in addition to functional significance. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify relevant features of vulnerable plaque in functionally significant lesions. METHODS: In this multicenter, prospective study conducted across 5 countries, including patients who had invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) ≤0.80, a total of 95 patients with available pullback pressure gradient (PPG) and plaque analysis on coronary computed tomographic angiography and optical coherence tomography were analyzed. Vulnerable plaque was defined as the presence of plaque rupture or thin-cap fibroatheroma on optical coherence tomography. Among the 25 clinical characteristics, invasive angiographic findings, physiological indexes, and coronary computed tomographic angiographic findings, significant predictors of vulnerable plaque were identified. RESULTS: Mean percentage diameter stenosis, FFR, and PPG were 77.8% ± 14.6%, 0.66 ± 0.13, and 0.65 ± 0.13, respectively. Vulnerable plaque was present in 53 lesions (55.8%). PPG and FFR were identified as significant predictors of vulnerable plaque (P < 0.05 for all). PPG >0.65 and FFR ≤0.70 were significantly related to a higher probability of vulnerable plaque after adjustment for each other (OR: 6.75 [95% CI: 2.39-19.1]; P < 0.001] for PPG >0.65; OR: 4.61 [95% CI: 1.66-12.8]; P = 0.003 for FFR ≤0.70). When categorizing lesions according to combined PPG >0.65 and FFR ≤0.70, the prevalence of vulnerable plaque was 20.0%, 57.1%, 66.7%, and 88.2% in the order of PPG ≤0.65 and FFR >0.70, PPG ≤0.65 and FFR ≤0.70, PPG >0.65 and FFR >0.70, and PPG >0.65 and FFR ≤0.70 (P for trend < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Among low-FFR lesions, the presence of vulnerable plaque can be predicted by PPG combined with FFR without additional anatomical or plaque characteristics.

    BACKGROUND: The clinical benefits of optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remain unclear. AIMS: We sought to compare intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)- and OFDI-guided PCI in patients with ACS. METHODS: OPINION ACS is a multicentre, prospective, randomised, non-inferiority trial that compared OFDI-guided PCI with IVUS-guided PCI using current-generation drug-eluting stents in ACS patients (n=158). The primary endpoint was in-stent minimum lumen area (MLA), assessed using 8-month follow-up OFDI. RESULTS: Patients presented with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (55%), non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (29%), or unstable angina pectoris (16%). PCI procedural success was achieved in all patients, with comparably low periprocedural complications rates in both groups. Immediately after PCI, the minimum stent area (p=0.096) tended to be smaller for OFDI versus IVUS guidance. Proximal stent edge dissection (p=0.012) and irregular protrusion (p=0.03) were significantly less frequent in OFDI-guided procedures than in IVUS-guided procedures. Post-PCI coronary flow, assessed using corrected Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction frame counts, was significantly better in the OFDI-guided group than in the IVUS-guided group (p<0.001). The least squares mean (95% confidence interval [CI]) in-stent MLA at 8 months was 4.91 (95% CI: 4.53-5.30) mm2 and 4.76 (95% CI: 4.35-5.17) mm2 in the OFDI- and IVUS-guided groups, respectively, demonstrating the non-inferiority of OFDI guidance (pnon-inferiority<0.001). The average neointima area tended to be smaller in the OFDI-guided group. The frequency of major adverse cardiac events was similar. CONCLUSIONS: Among ACS patients, OFDI-guided PCI and IVUS-guided PCI were equally safe and feasible, with comparable in-stent MLA at 8 months. OFDI guidance may be a potential option in ACS patients. This study was registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jrct.niph.go.jp: jRCTs052190093).

    BACKGROUND: Combining morphological and physiological evaluations might improve the risk stratification of patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) culprit lesions. AIMS: We aimed to investigate the clinical utility of morphofunctional evaluation after PCI for identifying ACS patients with increased risk of subsequent clinical events. METHODS: We retrospectively studied 298 consecutive ACS patients who had undergone optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided PCI. We performed OCT-based morphological analysis and quantitative flow ratio (QFR)-based physiological assessment immediately after PCI. The non-culprit segment (NCS) was defined as the most stenotic untreated segment in the culprit vessel. The primary outcome was target vessel failure (TVF), a composite of cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, and ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularisation. RESULTS: During a median follow-up period of 990 days, 42 patients experienced TVF. Cox regression analysis revealed that the presence of thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) in the NCS and a low post-PCI QFR, or the presence of TCFA in the NCS and a high ΔQFR in the NCS (QFRNCS), were independently associated with TVF. The subgroup with TCFA in the NCS and a low post-PCI QFR had a significantly higher incidence of TVF (75%) than the other subgroups, and those with TCFA in the NCS and a high ΔQFRNCS had a significantly higher incidence of TVF (86%) than the other subgroups. The integration of TCFA in NCS, post-PCI QFR, and ΔQFRNCS with traditional risk factors significantly enhanced the identification of subsequent TVF cases. CONCLUSIONS: Combining post-PCI OCT and QFR evaluation may enhance risk stratification for ACS patients after successful PCI, particularly in predicting subsequent TVF.

    BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) involves plaque-related thrombosis, causing primary ischemic cardiomyopathy or lethal arrhythmia. We previously demonstrated a unique immune landscape of myeloid cells in the culprit plaques causing ACS by using single-cell RNA sequencing. Here, we aimed to characterize T cells in a single-cell level, assess clonal expansion of T cells, and find a therapeutic target to prevent ACS. METHODS: We obtained the culprit lesion plaques from 4 patients with chronic coronary syndrome (chronic coronary syndrome plaques) and the culprit lesion plaques from 3 patients with ACS (ACS plaques) who were candidates for percutaneous coronary intervention with directional coronary atherectomy. Live CD45+ immune cells were sorted from each pooled plaque samples and applied to the 10× platform for single-cell RNA sequencing analysis. We also extracted RNA from other 3 ACS plaque samples and conducted unbiased TCR (T-cell receptor) repertoire analysis. RESULTS: CD4+ T cells were divided into 5 distinct clusters: effector, naive, cytotoxic, CCR7+ (C-C chemokine receptor type 7) central memory, and FOXP3 (forkhead box P3)+ regulatory CD4+ T cells. The proportion of central memory CD4+ T cells was higher in the ACS plaques. Correspondingly, dendritic cells also tended to express more HLAs (human leukocyte antigens) and costimulatory molecules in the ACS plaques. The velocity analysis suggested the differentiation flow from central memory CD4+ T cells into effector CD4+ T cells and that from naive CD4+ T cells into central memory CD4+ T cells in the ACS plaques, which were not observed in the chronic coronary syndrome plaques. The bulk repertoire analysis revealed clonal expansion of TCRs in each patient with ACS and suggested that several peptides in the ACS plaques work as antigens and induced clonal expansion of CD4+ T cells. CONCLUSIONS: For the first time, we revealed single cell-level characteristics of CD4+ T cells in patients with ACS. CD4+ T cells could be therapeutic targets of ACS.

    BACKGROUND: Fractional flow reserve-computed tomography (FFRCT) has not been validated in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for coronary artery disease due to theoretical difficulties in using nitroglycerin for such patients.Methods and Results: In this single-center study, we prospectively enrolled 21 patients (34 vessels) and performed pre-TAVR FFRCTwithout nitroglycerin, pre-TAVR invasive instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR) measurements, and post-TAVR FFR measurements using a pressure wire. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of pre-TAVR FFRCT≤0.80 to predict post-TAVR invasive FFR ≤0.80 were 82%, 83%, 82%, 71%, and 90%, respectively. A receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated an optimal cutoff of 0.78 for pre-TAVR FFRCTto indicate post-TAVR FFR ≤0.80, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.84, and the counterpart cutoff of pre-TAVR iFR was 0.89 with an AUC of 0.86. CONCLUSIONS: FFRCTwithout nitroglycerin could be a useful non-invasive imaging modality for assessing the severity of coronary artery lesions in patients with severe AS.

    BACKGROUND: Murray law-based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR) is a novel computational method that enables accurate estimation of fractional flow reserve (FFR) using a single angiographic projection. However, its diagnostic value in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) remains unclear. METHOD: We included 25 consecutive patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) for severe AS with intermediate or greater (30-90%) coronary artery disease (CAD). Pre- and post-TAVR μQFR, QFR, instantaneous flow reserve (iFR), and post-TAVR invasive FFR values were measured. We evaluated the diagnostic performance of pre-TAVR μQFR, QFR, and iFR using post-TAVR FFR ≤ 0.80 as a reference standard of ischemia. RESULT: Pre-TAVR μQFR was significantly correlated with post-TAVR FFR (r = 0.73, p < 0.0001). The area under the curve of pre-TAVR μQFR on post-TAVR FFR ≤ 0.8 was 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.77-0.98), comparable to that of pre-TAVR iFR (0.86 [95% CI 0.71-0.98], p = 0.97). The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of pre-TAVR μQFR on post-TAVR FFR ≤ 0.8 were 84.2% (95% CI 68.7-93.4), 61.6% (95% CI 31.6-86.1), 96.0% (95% CI 79.6-99.9), 88.9% (95% CI 52.9-98.3), and 82.8% (95% CI 70.6-90.6), respectively. For pre-TAVR iFR, these values were 76.5% (95% CI 58.8-89.3), 90.9% (95% CI 58.7-99.8), 69.6% (95% CI 47.1-86.8), 58.8% (95% CI 42.8-73.1), and 94.1% (95% CI 70.8-99.1), respectively. CONCLUSION: μQFR could be useful for the physiological evaluation of patients with severe AS with concomitant CAD.

    BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Coronary hemodynamics impact coronary plaque progression and destabilization. The aim of the present study was to establish the association between focal vs. diffuse intracoronary pressure gradients and wall shear stress (WSS) patterns with atherosclerotic plaque composition. METHODS: Prospective, international, single-arm study of patients with chronic coronary syndromes and hemodynamic significant lesions (fractional flow reserve [FFR] ≤ 0.80). Motorized FFR pullback pressure gradient (PPG), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and time-average WSS (TAWSS) and topological shear variation index (TSVI) derived from three-dimensional angiography were obtained. RESULTS: One hundred five vessels (median FFR 0.70 [Interquartile range (IQR) 0.56-0.77]) had combined PPG and WSS analyses. TSVI was correlated with PPG (r = 0.47, [95% Confidence Interval (95% CI) 0.30-0.65], p < 0.001). Vessels with a focal CAD (PPG above the median value of 0.67) had significantly higher TAWSS (14.8 [IQR 8.6-24.3] vs. 7.03 [4.8-11.7] Pa, p < 0.001) and TSVI (163.9 [117.6-249.2] vs. 76.8 [23.1-140.9] m-1, p < 0.001). In the 51 vessels with baseline OCT, TSVI was associated with plaque rupture (OR 1.01 [1.00-1.02], p = 0.024), PPG with the extension of lipids (OR 7.78 [6.19-9.77], p = 0.003), with the presence of thin-cap fibroatheroma (OR 2.85 [1.11-7.83], p = 0.024) and plaque rupture (OR 4.94 [1.82 to 13.47], p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Focal and diffuse coronary artery disease, defined using coronary physiology, are associated with differential WSS profiles. Pullback pressure gradients and WSS profiles are associated with atherosclerotic plaque phenotypes. Focal disease (as identified by high PPG) and high TSVI are associated with high-risk plaque features. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: https://clinicaltrials,gov/ct2/show/NCT03782688.

    BACKGROUND: Following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), optical coherence tomography provides prognosis information. The pullback pressure gradient is a novel index that discriminates focal from diffuse coronary artery disease based on fractional flow reserve pullbacks. We sought to investigate the association between coronary artery disease patterns, defined by coronary physiology, and optical coherence tomography after stent implantation in stable patients undergoing PCI. METHODS AND RESULTS: This multicenter, prospective, single-arm study was conducted in 5 countries (NCT03782688). Subjects underwent motorized fractional flow reserve pullbacks evaluation followed by optical coherence tomography-guided PCI. Post-PCI optical coherence tomography minimum stent area, stent expansion, and the presence of suboptimal findings such as incomplete stent apposition, stent edge dissection, and irregular tissue protrusion were compared between patients with focal versus diffuse disease. Overall, 102 patients (105 vessels) were included. Fractional flow reserve before PCI was 0.65±0.14, pullback pressure gradient was 0.66±0.14, and post-PCI fractional flow reserve was 0.88±0.06. The mean minimum stent area was 5.69±1.99 mm2 and was significantly larger in vessels with focal disease (6.18±2.12 mm2 versus 5.19±1.72 mm2, P=0.01). After PCI, incomplete stent apposition, stent edge dissection, and irregular tissue protrusion were observed in 27.6%, 10.5%, and 51.4% of the cases, respectively. Vessels with focal disease at baseline had a lower prevalence of incomplete stent apposition (11.3% versus 44.2%, P=0.002) and more irregular tissue protrusion (69.8% versus 32.7%, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Baseline coronary pathophysiological patterns are associated with suboptimal imaging findings after PCI. Patients with focal disease had larger minimum stent area and a higher incidence of tissue protrusion, whereas stent malapposition was more frequent in patients with diffuse disease.

    BACKGROUND: Perivascular inflammation contributes to the development of atherosclerosis and microcirculatory dysfunction. Pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT) attenuation, measured by coronary computed tomography angiography, is a potential indicator of coronary inflammation. However, the relationship between PCAT attenuation, microcirculatory dysfunction, and periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) remains unclear. METHODS AND RESULTS: Patients with chronic coronary syndrome who underwent coronary computed tomography angiography before percutaneous coronary intervention were retrospectively identified. PCAT attenuation and adverse plaque characteristics were assessed using coronary computed tomography angiography. The extent of microcirculatory dysfunction was evaluated using the angio-based index of microcirculatory resistance before and after percutaneous coronary intervention. Overall, 125 consecutive patients were included, with 50 experiencing PMI (PMI group) and 75 without PMI (non-PMI group). Multivariable analysis showed that older age, higher angio-based index of microcirculatory resistance, presence of adverse plaque characteristics, and higher lesion-based PCAT attenuation were independently associated with PMI occurrence (odds ratio [OR], 1.07 [95% CI, 1.01-1.13]; P=0.02; OR, 1.06 [95% CI, 1.00-1.12]; P=0.04; OR, 6.62 [95% CI, 2.13-20.6]; P=0.001; and OR, 2.89 [95% CI, 1.63-5.11]; P<0.001, respectively). High PCAT attenuation was correlated with microcirculatory dysfunction before and after percutaneous coronary intervention and its exacerbation during percutaneous coronary intervention. Adding lesion-based PCAT attenuation to the presence of adverse plaque characteristics improved the discriminatory and reclassification ability in predicting PMI. CONCLUSIONS: Adding PCAT attenuation at the culprit lesion level to coronary computed tomography angiography-derived adverse plaque characteristics may provide incremental benefit in identifying patients at risk of PMI. Our results highlight the importance of microcirculatory dysfunction in PMI development, particularly in the presence of lesions with high PCAT attenuation.

    OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy of a virtual stenting tool based on coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and fractional flow reserve (FFR) derived from CCTA (FFRCT Planner) across different levels of image quality. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Prospective, multicenter, single-arm study of patients with chronic coronary syndromes and lesions with FFR ≤ 0.80. All patients underwent CCTA performed with recent-generation scanners. CCTA image quality was adjudicated using the four-point Likert scale at a per-vessel level by an independent committee blinded to the FFRCT Planner. Patient- and technical-related factors that could affect the FFRCT Planner accuracy were evaluated. The FFRCT Planner was applied mirroring percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to determine the agreement with invasively measured post-PCI FFR. RESULTS: Overall, 120 patients (123 vessels) were included. Invasive post-PCI FFR was 0.88 ± 0.06 and Planner FFRCT was 0.86 ± 0.06 (mean difference 0.02 FFR units, the lower limit of agreement (LLA) - 0.12, upper limit of agreement (ULA) 0.15). CCTA image quality was assessed as excellent (Likert score 4) in 48.3%, good (Likert score 3) in 45%, and sufficient (Likert score 2) in 6.7% of patients. The FFRCT Planner was accurate across different levels of image quality with a mean difference between FFRCT Planner and invasive post-PCI FFR of 0.02 ± 0.07 in Likert score 4, 0.02 ± 0.07 in Likert score 3 and 0.03 ± 0.08 in Likert score 2, p = 0.695. Nitrate dose ≥ 0.8mg was the only independent factor associated with the accuracy of the FFRCT Planner (95%CI - 0.06 to - 0.001, p = 0.040). CONCLUSION: The FFRCT Planner was accurate in predicting post-PCI FFR independent of CCTA image quality. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT: Being accurate in predicting post-PCI FFR across a wide spectrum of CT image quality, the FFRCT Planner could potentially enhance and guide the invasive treatment. Adequate vasodilation during CT acquisition is relevant to improve the accuracy of the FFRCT Planner. KEY POINTS: • The fractional flow reserve derived from coronary CT angiography (FFRCT) Planner is a novel tool able to accurately predict fractional flow reserve after percutaneous coronary intervention. • The accuracy of the FFRCT Planner was confirmed across a wide spectrum of CT image quality. Nitrates dose at CT acquisition was the only independent predictor of its accuracy. • The FFRCT Planner could potentially enhance and guide the invasive treatment.

    BACKGROUND: The impact of coronary bifurcation angle (BA) on incomplete stent apposition (ISA) after crossover stenting followed by side branch (SB) intervention has not been established. METHODS: A total of 100 crossover stentings randomly treated with proximal optimization technique followed by short balloon dilation in the SB (POT-SBD group, 48 patients) and final kissing balloon technique (KBT group, 52 patients) were analyzed in the PROPOT trial. Major ISA with maximum distance > 400 μm and its location was determined using optical coherence tomography before SB intervention and at the final procedure. The BA was defined as the angle between the distal main vessel and SB. Optimal POT was determined when the difference in stent volume index between the proximal and distal bifurcation was greater than the median value (0.86 mm3/mm) before SB intervention. RESULT: Major ISA was more frequently observed in the POT-SBD than in the KBT group (35% versus 17%, p < 0.05). In the POT-SBD group, worsening ISA after SBD was prominent at the distal bifurcation. The BA was an independent predictor of major ISA (odds ratio 1.04, 95% confidence interval 1.00-1.07, p < 0.05) with a cut-off value of 59.5° (p < 0.05). However, the cases treated with optimal POT in the short BA (<60°) indicated the lowest incidence of major ISA. In the KBT group, BA had no significant impact. CONCLUSION: A wide BA has a potential risk for the occurrence of major ISA after POT followed by SBD in coronary bifurcation stenting.

    BACKGROUND: Drug-coated balloon (DCB) became a potential treatment option for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS); however, factors associated with target lesion failure (TLF) remain uncertain. METHODS: This retrospective, multicentre, observational study included consecutive ACS patients who underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided DCB treatment. Patients were divided into two groups according to the occurrence of TLF, a composite of cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction, and ischemia-driven target lesion revascularisation. RESULTS: We enrolled 127 patients in this study. During the median follow-up period of 562 (IQR: 342-1164) days, 24 patients (18.9%) experienced TLF, and 103 patients (81.1%) did not. The cumulative 3-year incidence of TLF was 22.0%. The cumulative 3-year incidence of TLF was the lowest in patients with plaque erosion (PE) (7.5%), followed by those with rupture (PR) (26.1%) and calcified nodule (CN) (43.5%). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that plaque morphology was independently associated with TLF on pre-PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) OCT, and residual thrombus burden (TB) was positively associated with TLF on post-PCI OCT. Further stratification by post-PCI TB revealed a comparable incidence of TLF in patients with PR (4.2%) to that of PE if the culprit lesion had a smaller post-PCI TB than the cut-off value (8.4%). TLF incidence was high in patients with CN, regardless of TB size on post-PCI OCT. CONCLUSIONS: Plaque morphology was strongly associated with TLF for ACS patients after DCB treatment. Residual TB post-PCI might be a key determinant for TLF, especially in patients with PR.

    Even after successful revascularization with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), subsequent adverse events still occur. Previous studies have suggested potential benefits of intravascular imaging, including optical coherence tomography (OCT). However, the feasibility of OCT-guided primary PCI has not been systematically examined in these patients. The ATLAS-OCT (ST-elevation Acute myocardial infarcTion and cLinicAl outcomeS treated by Optical Coherence Tomography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention) trial was designed to investigate the feasibility of OCT guidance during primary PCI for STEMI in experienced centers with expertise on OCT-guided PCI as a prospective, multicenter registry of consecutive patients with STEMI who underwent a primary PCI. The sites' inclusion criteria are as follows: (1) acute care hospitals providing 24/7 emergency care for STEMI, and (2) institutions where OCT-guided PCI is the first choice for primary PCI in STEMI. All patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI at participating sites will be consecutively enrolled, irrespective of OCT use during PCI. The primary end point will be the rate of successful OCT imaging during the primary PCI. As an ancillary imaging modality to angiography, OCT provides morphologic information during PCI for the assessment of plaque phenotypes, vessel sizing, and PCI optimization. Major adverse cardiac events, defined as a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction, and target vessel revascularization at 1 year, will also be recorded. The ATLAS-OCT study will clarify the feasibility of OCT-guided primary PCI for patients with STEMI and further identify a suitable patient group for OCT-guided primary PCI.

    This study determined the predictive accuracy of optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) on debulking effects of rotational atherectomy (RA) and compared the predictive accuracy of OFDI catheter-based with Rota wire-based prediction methods. This prospective, single-center, observational study included 55 consecutive patients who underwent OFDI-guided RA. On pre-RA OFDI images, a circle, identical to the Rota burr was drawn at the center of the OFDI catheter (OFDI catheter-based prediction method) or wire (wire-based prediction method). The area overlapping the vessel wall was defined as the predicted ablation area (P-area). The actual ablated area (A-area) was measured by superimposing the OFDI images before and after RA. The overlapping P-area and A-area were defined as overlapped ablation area (O-area), and the predictive accuracy was evaluated by %Correct area (O-area/P-area) and %Error area (A-area  - O-area/A-area). The median %Correct and %Error areas were 47.8% and 41.6%, respectively. Irrelevant ablation (low %Correct-/high % Error areas) and over ablation (high %Correct-/high % Error areas) were related to deep vessel injury and intimal flap outside the P-area. The predictive accuracy was better in the OFDI catheter-based prediction method than the wire-based prediction method in the cross sections where the OFDI catheter and wire came in contact. However, it was better in the latter than the former where the OFDI catheter and wire were not in contact. OFDI-based simulation of the RA effect is feasible though accuracy may be affected by the OFDI catheter and wire position. OFDI-based simulation of RA effect might reduce peri-procedural complications during RA.

    BACKGROUND: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) carries prognostic information. Yet, myocardial mass subtended by a stenosis influences FFR. We hypothesized that a smaller coronary lumen volume and a large myocardial mass might be associated with lower post-PCI FFR. AIM: We sought to assess the relationship between vessel volume, myocardial mass, and post-PCI FFR. METHODS: This was a subanalysis with an international prospective study of patients with significant lesions (FFR ≤ 0.80) undergoing PCI. Territory-specific myocardial mass was calculated from coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) using the Voronoi's algorithm. Vessel volume was extracted from quantitative CCTA analysis. Resting full-cycle ratio (RFR) and FFR were measured before and after PCI. We assessed the association between coronary lumen volume (V) and its related myocardial mass (M), and the percent of total myocardial mass (%M) with post-PCI FFR. RESULTS: We studied 120 patients (123 vessels: 94 left anterior descending arteries, 13 left Circumflex arteries, 16 right coronary arteries). Mean vessel-specific mass was 61 ± 23.1 g (%M 39.6 ± 11.7%). The mean post-PCI FFR was 0.88 ± 0.06 FFR units. Post-PCI FFR values were lower in vessels subtending higher mass (0.87 ± 0.05 vs. 0.89 ± 0.07, p = 0.047), and with lower V/M ratio (0.87 ± 0.06 vs. 0.89 ± 0.07, p = 0.02). V/M ratio correlated significantly with post-PCI RFR and FFR (RFR r = 0.37, 95% CI: 0.21-0.52, p < 0.001 and FFR r = 0.41, 95% CI: 0.26-0.55, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Post-PCI RFR and FFR are associated with the subtended myocardial mass and the coronary volume to mass ratio. Vessels with higher mass and lower V/M ratio have lower post-PCI RFR and FFR.

    BACKGROUND: Cancer-associated thrombosis is a frequent complication of cancer; however, little evidence is available regarding the association between cancer history and coronary artery stent thrombosis (ST). We aimed to investigate the relationship between cancer history and second-generation drug-eluting stent thrombosis (G2-ST). METHODS: From the REAL-ST (Retrospective Multicenter Registry of ST After First- and Second-Generation Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation) registry, this study evaluated 1265 patients (G2- ST cases, n = 253; controls, n = 1012) with cancer-related information available. RESULTS: The prevalence of patients with cancer history was higher (12.3% vs. 8.5%, p = 0.065), and that of currently diagnosed and currently treated cancer was significantly higher in ST cases than controls (3.6% vs. 1.4%, p = 0.021; 3.2% vs. 1.3%, p = 0.037, respectively). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that cancer history was associated with late ST (odds ratio [OR]: 2.80, 95% confidence intervals [CI]: 0.92-8.55, p = 0.071) and very late ST (OR: 2.40, 95% CI: 1.02-5.65, p = 0.046), but not with early ST (OR: 1.01, 95% CI: 0.51-2.00, p = 0.97). During the median follow-up period of 872 days after the index ST events, patients with cancer history showed a higher mortality than those without, among both ST cases (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.93, 95% CI: 1.06-3.51, p = 0.031) and controls (HR: 1.93, 95% CI: 1.09-3.40, p = 0.023). CONCLUSION: A post hoc analysis of REAL-ST registry revealed that patients with G2-ST had a higher prevalence of currently diagnosed and currently treated cancer. Notably, cancer history was associated with the occurrence of late and very late ST, but not with early ST.

    BACKGROUND: Several stent expansion criteria derived from the intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) evaluation have been proposed to predict future clinical outcomes, but optimal stent expansion criteria as a guide during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are still controversial. There are no studies evaluating the utility of stent expansion criteria along with the clinical and procedural factors in predicting target lesion revascularization (TLR) after contemporary IVUS-guided PCI. METHODS: OPTIVUS-Complex PCI study (Optimal Intravascular Ultrasound Guided Complex Percutaneous Coronary Intervention) multivessel cohort was a prospective multicenter study enrolling 961 patients undergoing multivessel PCI including left anterior descending coronary artery using IVUS with an intention to meet the prespecified criteria for optimal stent expansion. We compared several stent expansion criteria (minimum stent area [MSA], MSA/distal or average reference lumen area, MSA/distal or average reference vessel area, OPTIVUS criteria, IVUS-XPL [Impact of Intravascular Ultrasound Guidance on Outcomes of Xience Prime Stents in Long Lesions] criteria, ULTIMATE [Intravascular Ultrasound Guided Drug Eluting Stents Implantation in "All-Comers" Coronary Lesions] criteria, and modified MUSIC [Multicenter Ultrasound Stenting in Coronaries Study] criteria) as well as clinical, angiographic, and procedural characteristics between lesions with and without TLR. RESULTS: Among 1957 lesions, the cumulative 1-year incidence of lesion-based TLR was 1.6% (30 lesions). Hemodialysis, treatment of proximal left anterior descending coronary artery lesions, calcified lesions, small proximal reference lumen area, and small MSA had univariate associations with TLR, while all of the stent expansion criteria except for MSA were not associated with TLR. The independent risk factors of TLR were calcified lesions (hazard ratio, 2.34 [95% CI, 1.03-5.32]; P=0.04) and small proximal reference lumen area (Tertile 1: hazard ratio, 7.01 [95% CI, 1.45-33.93]; P=0.02; and Tertile 2: hazard ratio, 5.40 [95% CI, 1.17-24.90]; P=0.03). CONCLUSIONS: In contemporary IVUS-guided PCI practice, the 1-year incidence of TLR was very low. MSA, but not other stent expansion criteria, had univariate association with TLR. Independent risk factors of TLR were calcified lesions and small proximal reference lumen area, although the findings should be interpreted with caution due to small number of TLR events, limited lesion complexity, and short duration of follow-up.

    BACKGROUND: Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) was only rarely used in landmark trials comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with multivessel disease. OBJECTIVES: The authors aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes after optimal IVUS-guided PCI in patients undergoing multivessel PCI. METHODS: The OPTIVUS (OPTimal IntraVascular UltraSound)-Complex PCI study multivessel cohort was a prospective multicenter single-arm study enrolling 1,021 patients undergoing multivessel PCI, including left anterior descending coronary artery using IVUS, aiming to meet the prespecified criteria (OPTIVUS criteria: minimum stent area > distal reference lumen area [stent length ≥28mm], and minimum stent area >0.8 × average reference lumen area [stent length <28mm]) for optimal stent expansion. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (death/myocardial infarction/stroke/any coronary revascularization). The predefined performance goals were derived from the CREDO-Kyoto (Coronary REvascularization Demonstrating Outcome study in Kyoto) PCI/CABG registry cohort-2 fulfilling the inclusion criteria in this study. RESULTS: In this study, 40.1% of the patients met OPTIVUS criteria in all stented lesions. The cumulative 1-year incidence of the primary endpoint was 10.3% (95% CI: 8.4%-12.2%), which was significantly lower than the predefined PCI performance goal of 27.5% (P < 0.001), and which was numerically lower than the predefined CABG performance goal of 13.8%. The cumulative 1-year incidence of the primary endpoint was not significantly different regardless of meeting or not meeting OPTIVUS criteria. CONCLUSIONS: Contemporary PCI practice conducted in the OPTIVUS-Complex PCI study multivessel cohort was associated with a significantly lower MACCE rate than the predefined PCI performance goal, and with a numerically lower MACCE rate than the predefined CABG performance goal at 1 year.

    BACKGROUND: Evidence of prognostic factors for stent failure after drug-eluting stent implantation for calcified nodules (CNs) is limited. AIMS: We aimed to clarify the prognostic risk factors associated with stent failure among patients who underwent drug-eluting stent implantation for CN lesions using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS: This retrospective, multicentre, observational study included 108 consecutive patients with CNs who underwent OCT-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). To evaluate the quality of CNs, we measured their signal intensity and analysed the degree of signal attenuation. All CN lesions were divided into dark or bright CNs according to the half width of signal attenuation, greater or lower than 332, respectively. RESULTS: During the median follow-up period of 523 days, 25 patients (23.1%) experienced target lesion revascularisation (TLR). The 5-year cumulative incidence of TLR was 32.6%. Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that younger age, haemodialysis, eruptive CNs, dark CNs assessed by pre-PCI OCT, disrupted fibrous tissue protrusions, and irregular protrusions assessed by post-PCI OCT were independently associated with TLR. The prevalence of in-stent CNs (IS-CNs) observed at follow-up OCT was significantly higher in the TLR group than in the non-TLR group. CONCLUSIONS: Factors such as younger age, haemodialysis, eruptive CNs, dark CNs, disrupted fibrous tissue, or irregular protrusions were independently related to TLR in patients with CNs. The high prevalence of IS-CNs might indicate that the main cause of stent failure implanted in CN lesions could be the recurrence of CN progression in the stented segment.

    Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) patterns play an essential role in the decision-making process about revascularization. The pullback pressure gradient (PPG) quantifies CAD patterns as either focal or diffuse based on fractional flow reserve (FFR) pullbacks. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of CAD patterns on acute percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) results considered surrogates of clinical outcomes. Methods and Results This was a prospective, multicenter study of patients with hemodynamically significant CAD undergoing PCI. Motorized FFR pullbacks and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed before and after PCI. Post-PCI FFR >0.90 was considered an optimal result. Focal disease was defined as PPG >0.73 (highest PPG tertile). Overall, 113 patients (116 vessels) were included. Patients with focal disease were younger than those with diffuse CAD (61.4±9.9 versus 65.1±8.7 years, P=0.042). PCI in vessels with high PPG (focal CAD) resulted in higher post-PCI FFR (0.91±0.07 in the focal group versus 0.86±0.05 in the diffuse group, P<0.001) and larger minimal stent area (6.3±2.3 mm2 in focal versus 5.3±1.8 mm2 in diffuse CAD, P=0.015) compared withvessels with low PPG (diffuse CAD). The PPG was associated with the change in FFR after PCI (R2=0.51, P<0.001). The PPG significantly improved the capacity to predict optimal PCI results compared with an angiographic assessment of CAD patterns (area under the curvePPG 0.81 [95% CI, 0.73-0.88] versus area under the curveangio 0.51 [95% CI, 0.42-0.60]; P<0.001). Conclusions PCI in vessels with focal disease defined by the PPG resulted in greater improvement in epicardial conductance and larger minimal stent area compared with diffuse disease. PPG, but not angiographically defined CAD patterns, distinguished patients attaining superior procedural outcomes. Registration URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03782688.

    BACKGROUND: The vessel healing process after implantation of biodegradable polymer (BP) and durable polymer (DP) everolimus-eluting stent (EES) in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) lesions remains unclear.Methods and Results: We conducted a multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial to compare early (2 weeks) and mid-term (12 months) vascular responses after implantation of BP-EES vs. DP-EES in STEMI patients. In this prespecified subanalysis, serial coronary angioscopy (CAS) analysis was performed in 15 stents in the BP-EES arm (n=10 patients) and 14 stents in the DP-EES arm (n=10 patients). At the 2-week follow-up, there was no significant difference in the estimated marginal means of the neointimal coverage grade (primary endpoint) between the 2 arms (mean [±SE] 0.00±0.00 in both arms; P>0.999). There were no significant differences between the BP-EES and DP-EES groups in the yellow color grade (1.046±0.106 vs. 0.844±0.114, respectively; P=0.201) or the presence of thrombus (77.8% vs. 88.8%, respectively; P=0.205). At 12 months, competent strut coverage, defined as yellow color grade ≤1, no thrombus, and a neointimal coverage grade ≥1 was achieved more frequently in the BP-EES than DP-EES arm (85.2% vs. 53.1%; adjusted odds ratio 2.11 [95% confidence interval 1.26-3.53]; P=0.023). CONCLUSIONS: Neointimal coverage 2 weeks after implantation of BP-EES and DP-EES in STEMI lesions was comparable on CAS evaluation. However, at 1 year, BP-EES was independently associated with competent strut coverage.

    BACKGROUND: Optical coherence tomography-derived fractional flow reserve (OCT-FFR) correlates strongly with wire-based FFR; however, its clinical significance remains uncertain. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to investigate the relationship between post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) OCT-FFR and long-term clinical outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS: This retrospective, multicenter, observational cohort study included consecutive patients with ACS who underwent OCT-guided emergency PCI. We analyzed post-PCI OCT images and calculated OCT-FFR to identify independent factors associated with target vessel failure (TVF) after PCI. RESULTS: Among 364 enrolled patients, 54 experienced TVF during a median follow-up of 36 (IQR: 26-48) months. Vessel-level OCT-FFR was significantly lower in the TVF group than in the non-TVF group (0.87 vs 0.94; P < 0.001). In the multivariable Cox regression analysis, low vessel-level OCT-FFR (HR per 0.1 increase: 0.38; 95% CI: 0.29-0.49; P < 0.001) and thin-cap fibroatheroma in the nonculprit lesion were independently associated with TVF. The TVF rate of vessels with both low vessel-level OCT-FFR (<0.90) and thin-cap fibroatheroma in the nonculprit lesion was 8.1 times higher than that of all other vessels (69.3% vs 12.4%; HR: 8.13; 95% CI: 4.33-15.25; log-rank P < 0.001). Furthermore, adding vessel-level OCT-FFR to baseline characteristics and post-PCI OCT findings improved discriminatory and reclassification ability in identifying patients with subsequent TVF. CONCLUSIONS: Vessel-level OCT-FFR was an independent factor associated with TVF after PCI in patients with ACS. Adding the OCT-FFR measurement to post-PCI OCT findings may enable better discrimination of patients with subsequent TVF after PCI for ACS.

    The early and mid-term arterial healing profile of biodegradable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting stents (BP-EES) is unclear, especially in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) culprit lesions. This study aimed to compare early- and mid-term arterial healing between durable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting stents (DP-EES) and BP-EES in STEMI patients. In a prospective, multicenter, non-inferiority trial, STEMI patients were randomized to receive BP-EES (n = 60) or DP-EES (n = 60). The primary endpoint of this study was the mean percentage of covered struts (%covered struts) on FD-OCT 2 weeks post-PCI. Key secondary endpoints included the percentage of uncovered struts, frequency of abnormal intra-stent tissue, and percentage of malapposed struts by FD-OCT 2 weeks and 12 months post-PCI. They underwent serial frequency-domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) evaluations immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention, and at 2 weeks and at 12 months after the procedure. The primary endpoint of %covered struts at 2 weeks was 71.4% in BP-EES and 72.3% in DP-EES [risk difference - 0.94%, lower limit of one-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) - 5.6; Pnon-inferiority = 0.0756]. At 12 months, the mean percentage of uncovered struts was significantly lower [1.73% (95% CI 0.28-3.17) vs. 4.81% (95% CI 3.52-6.09); p = 0.002], and the average malapposed volume was significantly smaller in the BP-EES group than in the DP-EES group (p = 0.002). At 12 months, BP-EES had a significantly larger average neointimal area with a significantly smaller average intra-stent tissue unevenness score than DP-EES, suggesting more uniform neointimal coverage with BP-EES. Strut coverage was comparable between BP-EES and DP-EES at 2 weeks. Non-inferiority could not be proven because of an insufficient sample size. The significantly better arterial healing with BP-EES at 12 months suggests a safer profile for STEMI culprit lesions.Trial registration: jRCTs022180024 https://jrct.niph.go.jp/en-latest-detail/jRCTs022180024.

    BACKGROUND: Low fractional flow reserve (FFR) values after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) carry a worse prognosis than high post-PCI FFR values. Therefore, the ability to predict post-PCI FFR might play an important role in procedural planning. Post-PCI FFR values can now be computed from pre-PCI coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) using the fractional flow reserve derived from coronary computed tomography angiography revascularization planner (FFRCT Planner). OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to validate the accuracy of the FFRCT Planner. METHODS: In this multicenter, investigator-initiated, prospective study, patients with chronic coronary syndromes and significant lesions based on invasive FFR ≤0.80 were recruited. The FFRCT Planner was applied to the fractional flow reserve derived from coronary computed tomography angiography (FFRCT) model, simulating PCI. The primary objective was the agreement between the predicted post-PCI FFR by the FFRCT Planner and measured post-PCI FFR. Accuracy of the FFRCT Planner's luminal dimensions was assessed by using post-PCI optical coherence tomography as the reference. RESULTS: Overall, 259 patients were screened, with 120 patients (123 vessels) included in the final analysis. The mean patient age was 64 ± 9 years, and 24% had diabetes. Measured FFR post-PCI was 0.88 ± 0.06, and the FFRCT Planner FFR was 0.86 ± 0.06 (mean difference: 0.02 ± 0.07 FFR unit; limits of agreement: -0.12 to 0.15). Optical coherence tomography minimal stent area was 5.60 ± 2.01 mm2, and FFRCT Planner minimal stent area was 5.0 ± 2.2 mm2 (mean difference: 0.66 ± 1.21 mm2; limits of agreement: -1.7 to 3.0). The accuracy and precision of the FFRCT Planner remained high in cases with focal and diffuse disease and with low and high calcium burden. CONCLUSIONS: The FFRCT-based technology was accurate and precise for predicting FFR after PCI. (Precise Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Plan Study [P3]; NCT03782688).

    Percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA) is a well-established interventional therapy for drug-refractory hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) as an alternative to surgical myectomy. Although guidelines recommend that PTSMA should be performed in institutions with extensive experience, it is not centralized to such high-volume centers in real-world clinical practice. Thus, this study aimed to assess the feasibility of PTSMA in non-high-volume centers. We retrospectively examined patients with HOCM who underwent PTSMA between August 2012 and May 2020 at four institutions that experienced fewer than 20 cases of PTSMA procedures. The primary clinical endpoint was a composite of safety (all-cause death, electrical defibrillation for ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation, cardiac tamponade, permanent pacemaker implantation, and repeated interventions) and efficacy endpoints (repeated interventions [PTSMA or surgical myectomy]). Fifty-eight consecutive patients were enrolled. During the 30-day follow-up, no major clinical adverse events were noted except three patients (5.2%) requiring permanent pacemaker implantation for complete atrioventricular block. The percentage of patients with New York Heart Association functional class 1 or 2 significantly increased from 8.6 to 100% (p < 0.001). In the Cox proportional hazard model, left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient at rest ≥ 30 mmHg (hazard ratio [HR] 6.56; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.44-29.90; p = 0.015) and mitral regurgitation grade ≥ 3 (HR 10.75; 95% CI 1.81-63.79; p = 0.009) at the 30-day follow-up were associated with a composite of major clinical adverse events. The current study demonstrated that 58 patients who underwent PTSMA in non-high-volume centers had favorable 30-day clinical outcomes, with a primary composite endpoint rate of 5.2%. A prospective study with a larger sample size and longer follow-up is warranted to verify the safety and efficacy of PTSMA in non-high-volume centers.

    OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effect of proximal optimization technique (POT) on coronary bifurcation stent failure (BSF) in cross-over stenting by comparing with the kissing balloon technique (KBT) in a multicenter randomized PROPOT trial. BACKGROUND: POT is recommended due to increased certainty for optimal stent expansion and side branch (SB) wiring. METHODS: We randomized 120 patients treated with crossover stenting into the POT group, which was followed by SB dilation (SBD), and the KBT group. Finally, 52 and 57 patients were analyzed by optical coherence tomography before SBD and at the final procedure, respectively. Composite BSF was defined as a maximal malapposition distance of >400 μm, or malapposed and SB-jailed strut rates of >5.95% and >21.4%, respectively. RESULTS: Composite BSF before SBD in the POT and KBT groups was observed in 29% and 26% of patients, respectively. In the POT group, differences in stent volumetric index between the proximal and distal bifurcation (odds ratio [OR] 60.35, 95% confidential interval [CI] 0.13-0.93, p = 0.036) and between the proximal bifurcation and bifurcation core (OR: 3.68, 95% CI: 1.01-13.40, p = 0.048) were identified as independent risk factors. Composite BSF at final in 27% and 32%, and unplanned additional procedures in 38% and 25% were observed, respectively. Composite BSF before SBD was a risk factor for the former (OR: 6.33, 95% CI: 1.10-36.50, p = 0.039) and the latter (OR: 6.43, 95% CI: 1.25-33.10, p = 0.026) in the POT group. CONCLUSION: POT did not result in a favorable trend in BSF. Insufficient expansion of the bifurcation core after POT was associated with BSF.

    Objective Previous studies have described several prognostic factors for heart failure (HF); however, these results were derived from registries consisting of conventional age groups, which might not represent the increasingly aging society. The present study explored the prognostic factors for all-cause death in hospitalized patients with HF across different age categories using an acute HF registry that included relatively old patients. Methods From a total of 1,971 consecutive patients with HF, 1,136 patients were enrolled. We divided the patients into 4 groups (≤65, 66-75, 76-85, and >85 years old) to evaluate all-cause death and prognostic factors of all-cause death. Results During the mean follow-up period of 1,038 days, 445 patients (39.2%) had all-cause death. A Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated significantly higher incidence of all-cause death in the elderly groups than in the younger groups (log-rank p<0.001). A Cox proportional-hazard regression analysis revealed that the presence of atrial fibrillation [hazard ratio (HR): 23.3, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.36-231.1, p=0.007] was a notable predictive factor for all-cause death in the ≤65 years old group, whereas the Clinical Frailty Scale score (HR: 1.33, 95% CI: 1.16-1.52, p<0.001) and hypoalbuminemia (HR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.31-0.78, p=0.003) were predictors in the >85 years old group. Conclusions Atrial fibrillation was a notable predictor of HF in young patients, whereas frailty and low-grade albuminemia were essential predictive factors of HF in elderly patients. With the increasing number of elderly patients with HF, comprehensive multidisciplinary treatment will be necessary.

    The initial process of atherosclerotic development has not been systematically evaluated. This study aimed to observe atherosclerotic progression from normal vessel wall (NVW) to atherosclerotic plaque and examine local factors associated with such progression using > 5-year long-term follow-up data obtained by serial optical coherence tomography (OCT). A total of 49 patients who underwent serial OCT for lesions with NVW over 5 years (average: 6.9 years) were enrolled. NVW was defined as a vessel wall with an OCT-detectable three-layer structure and intimal thickness ≤ 300 μm. Baseline and follow-up OCT images were matched, and OCT cross sections with NVW > 30° were enrolled. Cross sections were diagnosed as "progression" when the NVW in these cross sections was reduced by > 30° at > 5-year follow-up. Atherogenic progression from NVW to atherosclerotic plaque was observed in 40.8% of enrolled cross sections. The incidence of microchannels in an adjacent atherosclerotic plaque within the same cross section (6.7 vs. 3.3%; p = 0.046) and eccentric distribution of atherosclerotic plaque (25.0 vs. 12.6%; p < 0.001) at baseline was significantly higher in cross sections with progression than in those without. Cross sections with progression exhibited significantly higher NVW intimal thickness at baseline than cross sections without progression (200.1 ± 53.7 vs. 180.2 ± 59.6 μm; p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that the presence of microchannels in an adjacent atherosclerotic plaque, eccentric distribution of atherosclerotic plaque, and greater NVW intimal thickness at baseline were independently associated with progression at follow-up. The presence of microchannels in an adjacent atherosclerotic plaque, eccentric distribution of atherosclerotic plaque, and greater NVW intimal thickness were potentially associated with initial atherosclerotic development from NVW to atherosclerotic plaque.

    BACKGROUND: The impact of the extent of aortic atheroma on patients' prognosis after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has not been completely evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the aortic atheroma volume (AAV) derived from computed tomography, and the effect of its differences among the segments of the aorta, in patients undergoing TAVR. METHODS: In total, 143 patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis who underwent pre-procedural computed tomography before TAVR procedure indication were evaluated. AAV was calculated by measuring the aortic lumen and vessel volume using every 1-mm axial image and was further divided into thoracic (TAAV) and abdominal segments (AbAAV). RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 651 days, 24 all-cause and 14 cardiac deaths occurred. In the Kaplan-Meier analysis, the high AAV group had significantly higher all-cause and cardiac mortalities than the low AAV group (p = 0.016 and 0.023, respectively). Regarding segmental AAV, all-cause and cardiac mortalities did not have significant differences between the high and low TAAV groups. Moreover, all-cause and cardiac mortalities were significantly higher in the high AbAAV group than in the low AbAAV group (p = 0.0043 and 0.023, respectively). The multivariable analysis showed that only AbAAV was an independent predictor for all-cause mortality (hazard ratio: 1.06, p = 0.046). CONCLUSION: AAV was significantly associated with the mortality after TAVR. The current study suggests the pre-procedural assessment of AAV is valuable in predicting prognosis after TAVR. However, further investigation with a larger sample size is needed to validate our findings.

    Background Myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV), measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, is a useful prognostic marker for patients who have undergone aortic valve replacement (AVR) for aortic stenosis. However, the prognostic significance of ECV measurements based on computed tomography (CT) is unclear. This study evaluated the association between ECV measured with dual-energy CT and clinical outcomes in patients with aortic stenosis who underwent transcatheter or surgical AVR. Methods and Results We retrospectively enrolled 95 consecutive patients (age, 84.0±5.0 years; 75% women) with severe aortic stenosis who underwent preprocedural CT for transcatheter AVR planning. ECV was measured using iodine density images obtained by delayed enhancement dual-energy CT. The primary end point was a composite outcome of all-cause death and hospitalization for heart failure after AVR. The mean ECV measured with CT was 28.1±3.8%. During a median follow-up of 2.6 years, 22 composite outcomes were observed, including 15 all-cause deaths and 11 hospitalizations for heart failure. In Kaplan-Meier analysis, the high ECV group (≥27.8% [median value]) had significantly higher rates of composite outcomes than the low ECV group (<27.8%) (log-rank test, P=0.012). ECV was the only independent predictor of adverse outcomes on multivariable Cox regression analysis (hazards ratio, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.10‒1.41; P<0.001). Conclusions Myocardial ECV measured with dual-energy CT in patients who underwent aortic valve intervention was an independent predictor of adverse outcomes after AVR.

    Background: The effect of intraindividual variability in lipid levels on the onset of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains uncertain. We evaluated the relationship between intraindividual variability in lipid levels and culprit lesion morphologies by optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods and Results: Seventy-four consecutive patients with ACS whose cholesterol levels were assessed ≥3 times during outpatient visits before the onset of ACS were enrolled in the study; 222 patients without significant stenotic lesions were used as a control group. Based on OCT findings of culprit lesions, ACS patients were categorized into a plaque rupture ACS (PR-ACS) group (n=44) or a non-plaque rupture ACS (NPR-ACS) group (erosion or calcified nodule; n=30). Visit-to-visit variability in lipid levels was evaluated using the corrected variability independent of the mean (cVIM). Patients with ACS had significantly higher low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and cVIM in LDL-C than the control group. The PR-ACS group had significantly higher mean LDL-C levels and greater cVIM in LDL-C than the control group. The PR-ACS group had a significantly higher cVIM than the NPR-ACS group, despite similar mean LDL-C levels. Multivariate analysis revealed that higher cVIM of LDL-C was an independent predictor of PR-ACS (odds ratio 1.06; P=0.018). Conclusions: In addition to the LDL-C level, greater visit-to-visit variability in LDL-C levels may be associated with the onset of ACS induced by plaque rupture.

    Background Although patients with a cancer history have a 2 to 3 times higher risk for acute coronary syndrome (ACS), the morphological characteristics of ACS culprit plaque in those patients and their relations with clinical outcomes remain unknown. Methods and Results This retrospective, multicenter, observational cohort study included consecutive patients with ACS who underwent optical coherence tomography-guided emergent percutaneous coronary intervention. Patients were categorized into those without a cancer history, those with a cancer history, and those currently receiving cancer treatment. ACS culprit lesions were classified as plaque rupture, plaque erosion, or calcified nodule using optical coherence tomography. Plaque erosion frequency was significantly higher in culprit lesions of patients with current cancer and patients with cancer history than in those of patients without cancer history (56.3% versus 61.7% versus 36.5%). Calcified nodule incidence was significantly higher in patients without cancer history than in patients with current cancer and patients without cancer history (patients with current cancer: 12.4% versus patients without cancer history: 25.5% versus patients without cancer history: 12.6%, P<0.001). Cancer history was independently associated with nonplaque rupture (plaque erosion or calcified nodule) in ACS culprit lesions (odds ratio, 4.00; P<0.001). Cancer history was independently associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (hazard ratio [HR], 1.98; P=0.002). Nonplaque rupture in ACS culprit lesions was independently associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (HR, 1.60; P=0.011). Conclusions Patients with a cancer history had significantly worse clinical outcomes after ACS than those without a cancer history. Those with a cancer history had significantly higher plaque erosion and calcified nodule incidences in the ACS culprit lesions, which might partly explain their worse clinical outcomes.

    AIMS/INTRODUCTION: Glucose fluctuation (GF) is a residual risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). We investigated whether GF influenced clinical outcomes and progression of coronary stenosis in stable CAD patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this prospective study, 101 consecutive lipid-controlled stable CAD patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention were enrolled, and GF was expressed as the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) obtained by continuous glucose monitoring before the procedure was evaluated. At 9 months after enrollment, culprit and non-culprit (mild-to-moderate stenosis without ischemia) lesions were serially assessed by angiography. Cardiovascular events (CVE) consisting of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction or ischemia-driven revascularization during 2-year follow up, rapid progression in non-culprit lesions (defined as ≥10% luminal narrowing progression in lesions with stenosis ≥50%, ≥30% luminal narrowing progression in non-culprit lesions with stenosis <50% or normal segment, or progression to total occlusion) were evaluated. RESULTS: CVE occurred in 25 patients, and MAGE was significantly higher in the CVE group (76.1 ± 24.8 mg/dL vs 59.3 ± 23.7 mg/dL; P = 0.003). Multivariate analysis showed that MAGE was an independent predictor of CVE (odds ratio 1.027, 95% confidence interval 1.008-1.047; P = 0.005). The optimal MAGE value to predict CVE was 70.7 mg/dL (area under the curve 0.687, 95% confidence interval 0.572-0.802; P = 0.005). Furthermore, MAGE was independently associated with rapid progression, and with the luminal narrowing progression in all non-culprit lesions (r = 0.400, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Daily GF might influence future CVE in lipid-controlled stable CAD patients.

    Optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) is a high-resolution intracoronary imaging modality with fast automated longitudinal pullback. We aimed to evaluate the ability of performing OFDI from the superficial femoral artery (SFA) to the below-knee (BK) artery. This clinical trial was a multi-center, single-arm, open-label study. The primary endpoint was to obtain a clear image of the intra-vascular lumen from the SFA to the BK artery, specifically  > 270° visualization of the blood vessel lumen with  > 16/21 cross sections. The proportion of the clear image (≥ 85%) was regarded as confirmatory of the ability of OFDI to visualize the vessel lumen. Overall, 20 patients were enrolled. The proportion of the primary endpoint was 90% (18/20), and the pre-specified criterion was successfully attained. The proportion of the clear image assessed by the operator was 100% (20/20), and an additional statistical analysis for the proportion of the visualization,  > 270°, of the blood vessel lumen revealed a significantly higher cut-off value than that for the pre-specified criterion, 85% (p = 0.0315). There were three adverse events not related to OFDI. OFDI achieved acceptable visualization of the vessel lumen without any adverse event related to it. After regulatory approval based on the present study, OFDI will be available as a new option of endovascular imaging for peripheral artery diseases in daily practiceTrial registration: This study was registered in the Japanese Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCT 2052190025, https://jrct.niph.go.jp/latest-detail/jRCT2052190025 ).

    BACKGROUND: The impact of antiplatelet drug effects on mid-term local arterial responses following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains uncertain. We evaluated the impact of the platelet reactivity of prasugrel on mid-term vascular healing between acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and stable coronary artery disease (CAD).Methods and Results:We conducted a prospective, 12-center study in 125 patients with ACS and 126 patients with stable CAD who underwent PCI with an everolimus-eluting stent (EES) and received dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with prasugrel and aspirin. Serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed immediately after PCI and at the 9-month follow-up to assess the association of P2Y12reaction units (PRU) with the frequency of malapposed or uncovered struts and intrastent thrombi (IST). The incidence of abnormal mid-term OCT findings did not different between the ACS and CAD arms, regardless of clinical presentation, except that uncovered struts were more frequent in the ACS than CAD arm. PRU at PCI was significantly associated with the frequency of IST at follow-up, but not with uncovered and malapposed struts. PRU at PCI was the only independent predictor of IST detected at follow-up (odds ratio 1.009). CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing EES implantation and receiving prasugrel, achieving an adequate antiplatelet effect at the time of stent implantation may regulate thrombus formation throughout the follow-up period.

    OBJECTIVES: The primary objective of the current analysis was to assess the association between the clinical presentation at index procedure and mortality in patients with second-generation drug-eluting stent thrombosis (G2-ST). BACKGROUND: Patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have a higher risk for stent thrombosis (ST) as compared with those with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS). However, clinical outcomes of patients with G2-ST after treatment for ACS and CCS remain poorly understood. METHODS: From the REAL-ST (Retrospective Multicenter Registry of ST After First- and Second-Generation Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation) registry, this study evaluated 313 patients with G2-ST. According to baseline clinical presentation, patients were divided into the 2 groups: the ACS and CCS groups (n = 147 and n = 166, respectively). The primary endpoint was the cumulative 3-year incidence of all-cause death after the index ST events. Timing of ST, target lesion revascularization, and recurrent ST were also assessed. RESULTS: Early ST was more frequently observed in the ACS group (71.4% vs. 44.6%), while very late ST was less likely to occur in the ACS group than in the CCS group (11.6% vs. 30.7%). Cumulative 3-year incidence of all-cause death after the index ST events was comparable between the ACS and CCS groups (28.6% vs. 28.3%; hazard ratio: 1.14; 95% confidence interval: 0.75 to 1.73; p = 0.55). Compared with the CCS group, the ACS group showed higher incidences of target lesion revascularization and recurrent ST (23.8% vs. 17.2%; p = 0.06; and 9.9% vs. 1.4%; p = 0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with G2-ST were associated with higher mortality irrespective of baseline clinical presentation.

    PURPOSES: The closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) is associated with a significant reduction in right ventricular (RV) overload and an improvement in functional capacity in most adults with ASD. However, a subset of patients remains symptomatic even after closure due to therapeutic delay. To date, no clinically robust preoperative predictor of postoperative residual symptoms has been clearly identified. METHODS: In this study, 120 adult patients with ASD and 39 controls were investigated. As an index of RV myocardial deformation, RV global longitudinal strain (RV-GLS) was evaluated. The degree of coupling between RV and pulmonary artery (PA) was quantified by the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) divided by the PA systolic pressure (PASP). RESULTS: Compared to controls, baseline RV-GLS was significantly greater (- 27 ± 7 vs. - 23 ± 5%, P = 0.02) and TAPSE/PASP ratio was severely impaired (0.8 ± 0.3 vs. 2.1 ± 1.6 mm/mmHg, P < 0.01) in ASD patients. At 6 months after closure, 15 patients (12.5%) remained symptomatic. In patients without residual symptoms, TAPSE/PASP ratio significantly improved from 0.9 ± 0.3 to 1.0 ± 0.6 mm/mmHg (P = 0.02), and RV-GLS normalized (from - 28 ± 11 to - 24 ± 7%, P < 0.01) after closure. However, RV-GLS and TAPSE/PASP ratio showed no significant change in ASD patients with residual symptoms. On multivariate analysis, preoperative TAPSE/PASP ratio (odds ratio [OR] 0.034, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.000-0.604, P = 0.03) and pulmonary vascular resistance index ([PVRI], OR 1.011, 95% CI 1.000-1.021, P < 0.05) were associated with the postoperative symptomatic status. CONCLUSION: In terms of integrated assessment of the RV-PA unit, preoperative TAPSE/PASP ratio and PVRI were important determinants of residual symptoms after ASD closure.

    Culprit lesions of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) could be classified as plaque rupture (PR), erosion, or calcified nodule (CN). We aimed to determine the relationship among clinical characteristics, morphological plaque features, and long-term prognosis in ACS. Patients with ACS, who underwent pre-intervention optical coherence tomography between April 2013 and July 2018 were retrospectively enrolled, and classified into the three groups based on the culprit lesion morphology. In the 436 patients enrolled, incidences of PR, erosion, and CN in ACS culprit lesions were 46.1, 39.9, and 14.0%, respectively. Plaque erosion was more frequent in men aged < 60 years and CN was more frequent in older adults in both sexes (≥ 80 years) (P < 0.001). Patients with CN had a higher incidence of hemodialysis treatment (P < 0.001) and diabetes (P = 0.003). Multivariate analysis revealed that ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (P = 0.049) and presence of thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) at the culprit lesion were independently associated with PR; in younger patients (< 60 year), preserved left ventricular ejection fraction and lower incidence of TCFA were correlated with plaque erosion; and older age, non-STEMI, or unstable angina pectoris, higher serum brain natriuretic peptide levels, and lower incidence of TCFA were independently associated with CN. Multivariable analysis revealed that CN (odds ratio [OR] 1.990, P = 0.005), male sex (OR 2.012, P = 0.004), and older age (OR 1.036, P < 0.001) were independently associated with future adverse events during a median follow-up of 757 days. Different patient characteristics and morphological features were associated with the type of culprit lesion in patients with ACS.

    Background Stent thrombosis (ST) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation remains a life-threatening complication. Recurrent ST (RST) is not a rare phenomenon, potentially contributing to high mortality after the index ST events. However, little evidence is available about the incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes of definite RST after DES thrombosis. Methods and Results From REAL-ST (Retrospective Multicenter Registry of ST After First- and Second- Generation DES Implantation), this study evaluated 595 patients with definite ST (first-generation DES thrombosis, n=314; second-generation DES thrombosis, n=281). During a median follow-up of 31 months, we identified 32 patients with definite RST after first-generation DES thrombosis (n=18) and second-generation DES thrombosis (n=15). Cumulative incidence of RST was 4.5% and 6.0% at 1 and 5 years, respectively, which did not significantly differ between first-generation DES thrombosis and second-generation DES thrombosis. Independent predictors of definite RST were early ST (hazard ratio [HR], 2.38; 95% CI, 1.06-5.35 [P=0.035]) and multivessel ST (HR, 3.47; 95% CI, 1.03-11.7 [P=0.044]). Definite RST was associated with a 2.8-fold increased risk of mortality (adjusted HR, 2.78; 95% CI, 1.35-5.73 [P=0.006]). Conclusions Cumulative incidence of definite RST did not significantly differ between first-generation DES thrombosis and second-generation DES thrombosis. Early ST and multivessel ST were risk factors of definite RST. Definite RST significantly increased mortality after DES thrombosis, highlighting the clinical importance of preventing RST to improve outcomes of patients with ST.

    The purpose of this study was to assess early and late vascular healing in response to bioresorbable-polymer sirolimus-eluting stents (BP-SESs) for the treatment of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and stable coronary artery disease (CAD). A total of 106 patients with STEMI and 101 patients with stable-CAD were enrolled. Optical frequency-domain images were acquired at baseline, at 1- or 3-month follow-up, and at 12-month follow-up. In the STEMI and CAD cohorts, the percentage of uncovered struts (%US) was significantly and remarkably decreased during early two points and at 12-month (the STEMI cohort: 1-month: 18.75 ± 0.78%, 3-month: 10.19 ± 0.77%, 12-month: 1.80 ± 0.72%; p < 0.001, the CAD cohort: 1-month: 9.44 ± 0.78%, 3-month: 7.78 ± 0.78%, 12-month: 1.07 ± 0.73%; p < 0.001 respectively). The average peri-strut low-intensity area (PLIA) score in the STEMI cohort was significantly decreased during follow-up period (1.90 ± 1.14, 1.18 ± 1.25, and 1.01 ± 0.72; p ≤ 0.001), whereas the one in the CAD cohort was not significantly changed (0.89 ± 1.24, 0.67 ± 1.07, and 0.64 ± 0.72; p = 0.59). In comparison with both groups, differences of %US and PLIA score at early two points were almost disappeared or close at 12 months. The strut-coverage and healing processes in the early phase after BP-SES implantation were significantly improved in both cohorts, especially markedly in STEMI patients. At 1 year, qualitatively and quantitatively consistent neointimal coverage was achieved in both pathogenetic groups.

    Whether predicting the rotational atherectomy (RA) effect based on the position of optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) is accurate remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive accuracy of OFDI in identifying RA location and area. Twenty-five patients who underwent RA with OFDI were included. On pre-RA OFDI images, a circle with the dimension of a Rota burr was drawn at the center of the OFDI catheter. The area where the circle overlapped with the vessel wall was defined as the predicted ablation area (P-area), and the actual ablated area (A-area) was measured. The predictive accuracy of OFDI was evaluated as follows: overlapped ablation area (O-area: overlapping P- and A-areas) divided by P-area = %Correct-area, and A-area - O-area divided by A-area = %Error-area. Cross-sections were separated into four categories based on the median values of %Correct- and %Error-area. Among 334 cross-sections, RA effects were confirmed in the predicted location in 87% of them. The median %Correct- and %Error-areas were 43.1% and 64.2%, respectively. Floppy wire, narrow lumen area, OFDI catheter close to the intima, and large arc of calcium were independently associated with good prediction (high %Correct-/low %Error-areas). Non-left anterior descending lesions, OFDI catheter far from the wire, and OFDI catheter and wire far from the intima were associated with irrelevant ablation (low %Correct-/ high %Error-areas). The accuracy of the OFDI-based predictions for RA effects was acceptable with regard to location, but not high with regard to area. Wire types, target vessels, and OFDI catheter and wire positions are important determinants for accurately predicting RA effect using pre-procedural OFDI.

    To investigate the feasibility of pre-procedural morphological assessment of coronary artery calcification in severely calcified lesions with electrocardiography (ECG)-gated non-contrast computed tomography (CT). Severely calcified coronary arteries in patients who underwent ECG-gated non-contrast CT prior to optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were studied retrospectively. CT and OCT data were co-registered by marking landmark structures such as side branches and reviewed side by side with cross-sectional images. The maximum calcium angle (MCA) and presence of nodular calcification (NC) were evaluated. A total of 496 cross-sections in 16 lesions were included in this analysis. The Pearson correlation coefficient between CT- and OCT-derived MCA was 0.92 (p < 0.001). Bland-Altman plots of OCT-derived MCA in relation to CT-derived MCA showed a mean bias of 4.8 degrees with 95% limits of agreement of - 69.7 to 79.4 degrees. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of CT in identifying MCA > 270 degrees were 90.3%, 79.7%, 92.1%, and 97.4%, respectively. Sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of CT in identifying NC were 73.3%, 97.5%, 47.8%, and 99.2%, respectively. ECG-gated non-contrast coronary CT might be helpful to obtain detailed information of severe coronary artery calcification before PCI.

    Over the past 40 years, the safety and efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention has dramatically improved by overcoming several challenges. The introduction of drug-eluting stent (DES) in particular was a major breakthrough in interventional cardiology. Compared to bare-metal stents, first-generation DES (G1-DES) has dramatically reduced the rates of in-stent restenosis and subsequent target lesion revascularization. However, major safety concerns surrounding stent thrombosis (ST) emerged with G1-DES in clinical practice as a result of the high incidences of death, myocardial infarction, and repeat revascularization associated with ST. To overcome these limitations, second-generation DES (G2-DES) has been developed with an improved stent platform with thinner strut and biocompatible durable or biodegradable polymers. Indeed, G2-DES, when compared with G1-DES, has improved clinical outcomes by reducing the risk of late thrombotic events while maintaining anti-restenotic efficacy, whereas ST still occurs, even with the use of G2-DES. This review gives an overview of pathophysiology, risk factors, and outcomes of ST after DES implantation. Additionally, we discuss the management and prevention of ST.

    INTRODUCTION: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measured after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has been identified as a surrogate marker for vessel related adverse events. FFR can be derived from standard coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA). Moreover, the FFR derived from coronary CTA (FFRCT ) Planner is a tool that simulates PCI providing modeled FFRCT values after stenosis opening. AIM: To validate the accuracy of the FFRCT Planner in predicting FFR after PCI with invasive FFR as a reference standard. METHODS: Prospective, international and multicenter study of patients with chronic coronary syndromes undergoing PCI. Patients will undergo coronary CTA with FFRCT prior to PCI. Combined morphological and functional evaluations with motorized FFR hyperemic pullbacks, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) will be performed before and after PCI. The FFRCT Planner will be applied by an independent core laboratory blinded to invasive data, replicating the invasive procedure. The primary objective is to assess the agreement between the predicted FFRCT post-PCI derived from the Planner and invasive FFR. A total of 127 patients will be included in the study. RESULTS: Patient enrollment started in February 2019. Until December 2020, 100 patients have been included. Mean age was 64.1 ± 9.03, 76% were males and 24% diabetics. The target vessels for PCI were LAD 83%, LCX 6%, and RCA 11%. The final results are expected in 2021. CONCLUSION: This study will determine the accuracy and precision of the FFRCT Planner to predict post-PCI FFR in patients with chronic coronary syndromes undergoing percutaneous revascularization.

    BACKGROUND: Clinical implications of proximal optimisation technique (POT) for bifurcation lesions have not been investigated in a randomised controlled trial. AIMS: This study aimed to investigate whether proximal optimisation technique (POT) is superior in terms of stent apposition compared with the conventional kissing balloon technique (KBT) in real-life bifurcation lesions using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS: A total of 120 patients from 15 centres were randomised into two groups: POT followed by side branch dilation or KBT. Finally, 57 and 58 patients in the POT and KBT groups, respectively, were analysed. OCT was performed at baseline, immediately after wire recrossing to the side branch, and at the final procedure. RESULTS: The primary endpoint was the rate of malapposed struts assessed by the final OCT. The rate of malapposed struts did not differ between the POT and KBT groups (in-stent proximal site: 10.4% vs. 7.7%, p=0.33; bifurcation core: 1.4% vs. 1.1%, p=0.67; core's distal edge: 6.2% vs. 5.3%, p=0.59). More additional treatments were required among the POT group (40.4% vs. 6.9%, p<0.01). At 1-year follow-up, only one patient in each group underwent target lesion revascularisation (2.0% vs. 1.9%). CONCLUSIONS: POT followed by side branch dilation did not show any advantages over conventional KBT in terms of stent apposition, however, the excellent mid-term clinical outcomes were observed in both strategies.

    Assessment of frailty is important for risk stratification among the elderly with severe aortic stenosis (AS) when considering interventions such as surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). However, evidence of the impact of preoperative frailty on short-term postoperative outcomes or functional recovery is limited. This retrospective study included 234 consecutive patients with severe AS who underwent SAVR or TAVR at Kobe University Hospital between Dec 2013 and Dec 2019. Primary outcomes were postoperative complications, postoperative 6-min walking distance (6MWD), and home discharge rates. The mean age was 82 ± 6.6 years. There were 169 (SAVR: 80, TAVR: 89) and 65 (SAVR: 20, TAVR: 45) patients in the non-frail and frail groups, respectively (p = 0.02). The postoperative complication rates in the frail group were significantly higher than those in the non-frail group [30.8% (SAVR: 35.0%, TAVR: 28.9%) vs. 10.7% (SAVR: 15.0%, TAVR: 6.7%), p < 0.001]. The home discharge rate in the non-frail group was significantly higher than that in the frail group [85.2% (SAVR: 81.2%, TAVR: 88.8%) vs. 49.2% (SAVR: 55.0%, TAVR: 46.7%), p < 0.001]. The postoperative 6MWD in the non-frail group was significantly longer than that in the frail group [299.3 ± 87.8 m (SAVR: 321.9 ± 90.8 m, TAVR: 281.1 ± 81.3 m) vs. 141.9 ± 92.4 m (SAVR: 167.8 ± 92.5 m, TAVR: 131.6 ± 91.3 m), p < 0.001]. The TAVR group did not show a decrease in the 6MWD after intervention, regardless of frailty. We report for the first time that preoperative frailty was strongly associated with postoperative complications, 6MWD, and home discharge rates following both SAVR and TAVR. Preoperative frailty assessment may provide useful indications for planning better individualized therapeutic interventions and supporting comprehensive intensive care before and after interventions.

    BACKGROUND: The impact of reduction in glycemic excursion on coronary plaques remains unknown. This study aimed to elucidate whether a dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor could reduce the glycemic excursion and stabilize the coronary plaques compared with conventional management in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT). METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized controlled trial including CAD patients with IGT under lipid-lowering therapy receiving either vildagliptin (50 mg once a day) or no medication (control group) regarding glycemic treatment. The primary endpoint was changes in the minimum fibrous cap thickness and lipid arc in non-significant native coronary plaques detected by optical coherence tomography at 6 months after intervention. Glycemic variability expressed as the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE) measured with a continuous glucose monitoring system was evaluated before and 6 months after intervention. RESULTS: A total of 20 participants with 47 lesions were allocated to either the vildagliptin group (10 participants, 22 lesions) or the control group (10 participants, 25 lesions). The adjusted difference of mean changes between the groups was - 18.8 mg/dl (95% confidence interval, - 30.8 to - 6.8) (p = 0.0064) for the MAGE (vildagliptin, - 20.1 ± 18.0 mg/dl vs. control, 2.6 ± 12.7 mg/dl), - 22.8° (- 40.6° to - 5.1°) (p = 0.0012) for the mean lipid arc (vildagliptin, - 9.0° ± 25.5° vs. control, 15.8° ± 16.8°), and 42.7 μm (15.3 to 70.1 μm) (p = 0.0022) for the minimum fibrous cap thickness (vildagliptin, 35.7 ± 50.8 μm vs. control, - 15.1 ± 25.2 μm). CONCLUSIONS: Vildagliptin could reduce the MAGE at 6 months and may be associated with the decreased lipid arc and increased minimum FCT of the coronary plaques in CAD patients with IGT as compared with the control group. These findings may represent its potential stabilization effect on coronary plaques, which are characteristic in this patient subset.

    To compare early vascular healing following cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation between groups with or without aggressive stent expansion in patients treated by CoCr-EES for stable coronary artery disease (CAD). Seventy-one stable CAD lesions underwent CoCr-EES implantation and analysis of serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) images obtained post-procedure and at early-term (1- or 3-month) follow-up. The endpoints of this study were neointimal thickness at the time of 1- or 3-month OCT and presence and healing of stent edge dissection. Aggressive stent expansion was defined as a lesion complying with ILUMIEN III sizing protocol; that is, external elastic lamina (EEL) diameter minus maximum balloon diameter ≤ 0.25 mm.  Comparing groups with and without aggressive stent expansion, median neointimal thickness at 1 and 3 months after CoCr-EES implantation was similar (1 month: 0.031 mm vs. 0.041 mm, respectively, p = 0.27; 3 months: 0.036 mm vs. 0.040 mm, respectively, p = 0.84). Regarding stent edge findings, the presence of any stent edge dissection immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention was also similar between the groups (25% vs. 15%, respectively; p = 0.30) and most stent edge dissections resolved completely within 3 months, regardless of location or dissection severity. After 1 year, no clinically driven target lesion revascularization or stent thrombosis was observed in either cohort. Even after aggressive stent expansion, early neointimal proliferation appeared modest with CoCr-EES implantation, and most stent edge dissections had resolved by 3 months. These findings may support the feasibility of EEL-based sizing by pre-stenting OCT.

    BACKGROUND: Configurational changes in the proximal aorta are relevant to the procedural difficulty of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Among several morphological changes involving the ascending aorta, elongation is characteristics of elderly patients with aortic stenosis and can compromise the success and safety of TAVI. However, the effect of ascending aortic elongation on the overall morphology of the proximal aorta has not been established. AIMS: Our primary purpose was to investigate the effect of ascending aortic elongation on structural changes in the proximal aorta in TAVI candidates. MATERIALS & METHODS: In total, 121 consecutive patients with severe aortic stenosis (mean age, 84.5 ± 5.3 years; 69% women) who had undergone preprocedural computed tomography before TAVI were enrolled. We examined the structural anatomy of the proximal aorta in detail, focusing on its elongation, dilatation, tilting, rotation, and wedging. RESULTS: The mean length of the ascending aorta was 68.0 ± 9.2 mm, and the length was significantly correlated with dilatation (R = .278, p = .002), rightward tilting (R = .437, p < .001), clockwise rotation (R = .228, p = .018), and deep wedging (R = -.366, p < .001) of the proximal aorta. Elongation of the ascending aorta was correlated with dilatation, rightward tilting, clockwise rotation, and deep wedging of the proximal aorta in an elderly population with severe aortic stenosis. DISCUSSION: Appreciation of the clinical anatomy around the proximal aorta is required for clinicians involved in TAVI to estimate the procedural difficulty. CONCLUSION: Elongation of the ascending aorta was associated with dilatation, rightward tilting, clockwise rotation, and deep wedging of the proximal aorta.

    BACKGROUND: Second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) reduce the incidence of stent thrombosis, even in patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the early local vascular healing after DES implantation in STEMI lesions, which mainly concerns stent thrombosis, is still unclear.Methods and Results:We attempted to determine early local vascular healing 3 months after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation in STEMI lesions relative to stable coronary artery disease (CAD) lesions. This prospective, multicenter study analyzed 96 total lesions (STEMI=49, stable CAD=51) by frequency domain-optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) performed post-procedure and at the 3-month follow-up. Although CoCr-EES implanted in STEMI were almost entirely covered at 3 months, they had a relatively high incidence of uncovered struts compared with stable CAD (5.5% vs. 1.6%, P<0.001). Intrastent thrombus in the 2 groups was primarily resolved at the 3-month follow-up (STEMI: 91.7%→26.5%, stable CAD: 74.5%→11.8%). Regarding irregular protrusion, complete resolution was observed in stable CAD (21.6%→0%), while a few stents remained in STEMI (79.2%→8.2%). Although there were almost no changes for the serial change of average lumen area in STEMI, there were slight but significant decreases in stable CAD [STEMI 0.08 (-0.44, 0.55) mm2, stable CAD -0.35 (-0.55, 0.11) mm2; P=0.009]. CONCLUSIONS: Although strut coverage after CoCr-EES implantation for STEMI lesions was slightly delayed, the healing process appeared to be acceptable in both STEMI and stable CAD.

    Intravascular optical coherence tomography is a high-resolution intracoronary imaging modality, providing a microscopic image of intravascular features. However, it has lower penetration depth than intravascular ultrasound. Recently, a second-generation optical frequency-domain imaging (OFDI) technique has been developed to provide greater penetration depth and faster pullback speed. However, there is little evidence supporting the efficacy of OFDI in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT). We aimed to evaluate the ability of OFDI to visualize vessel walls from the superficial femoral artery (SFA) to the below-knee (BK) arteries, as well as the coronary arteries. This clinical trial is a single-center, single-arm, open-label study to be conducted in Japan. A total of 20 patients will be enrolled in this study. The primary endpoint is to obtain a clear image of the intravascular features of the SFA and BK arteries, specifically the visualization of ≥ 270° of the vessel lumen in ≥ 16 out of 21 cross sections. Obtaining clear images in ≥ 85% of cases will be regarded as confirmation of the ability of OFDI to visualize vessel walls from the SFA to the BK arteries. This is the first clinical trial to be conducted accordance with good clinical practice to expand the indications of OFDI for PAD patients undergoing EVT in Japan. The result of this study will help provide another imaging option during EVT in daily practice.

    Limited data exist on the comparison of clinical outcomes after first- and second-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) thrombosis. From the Retrospective Multicenter Registry of Stent Thrombosis (ST) After First- and Second-Generation DES Implantation registry, this study evaluated 655 ST patients (first-generation DES thrombosis [G1-ST], n = 342; second-generation DES thrombosis [G2-ST], n = 313). After propensity score matching, the final study population consisted of 159 matched patients. The primary end point was the cumulative 1-year incidence of mortality. The mortality after G2-ST at 1 year was similar to that after G1-ST (23.0% vs 22.9%, p = 0.76). Also, the G2-ST group showed a significantly lower rate of target lesion revascularization than the G1-ST group (9.7% vs 17.1%, p = 0.01). Risk factors of 1-year mortality included cardiogenic shock or arrest at the time of ST, multivessel ST, left ventricular ejection fraction ≤40%, advanced age, and final thrombolysis in myocardial infarction flow grade ≤2. In conclusion, patients with G2-ST showed a similar 1-year mortality to those with G1-ST, highlighting that ST remains a life-threatening complication in the second-generation DES era.

    A sigmoid septum is a state of angulation between the basal interventricular septum and the ascending aorta. Although considered to have no clinical importance, it may cause left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) in a hypercontractile state. Percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA) is a catheter-based therapy aimed at improving drug-refractory symptoms in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy. Few studies have reported the use of PTSMA for patients with LVOTO caused by sigmoid septum. We present a successful case of a 71-year-old female patient who presented with a long history of exertional dyspnea. The presence of a sigmoid septum was revealed on echocardiography. At rest, the left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient was low and there were no signs of systolic anterior motion (SAM) of the mitral valve; however, during Valsalva maneuver, the gradient increased significantly, and SAM could be seen. We successfully performed PTSMA, resulting in a significant lowering of the pressure gradient and disappearance of SAM. The patient's symptoms dramatically improved by the following day. .

    BACKGROUND: In-stent neoatherosclerosis (NA) is a risk for future cardiovascular events through atherosclerotic progression in non-stented lesions. Using optical coherence tomography, this study assessed the efficacy of intensive therapy with 10 mg/day rosuvastatin plus 1,800 mg/day eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) vs. standard 2.5 mg/day rosuvastatin therapy on native coronary plaques in patients with NA.Methods and Results:This was a subgroup analysis of the randomized LINK-IT trial, which was designed to compare changes in the lipid index in NA between intensive and standard therapy for 12 months. In all, 42 patients with native coronary plaques and NA were assessed. Compared with standard therapy, intensive therapy resulted in greater decreases in serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations and greater increases in serum 18-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid concentrations, with significantly greater decreases in the lipid index and macrophage grade in both NA (-24 vs. 217 [P<0.001] and -15 vs. 24 [P<0.001], respectively) and native coronary plaques (-112 vs. 29 [P<0.001] and -17 vs. 1 [P<0.001], respectively) following intensive therapy. Although there was a greater increase in the macrophage grade in NA than in native coronary plaques in the standard therapy group, in the intensive therapy group there were comparable reductions in macrophage grade between NA and native coronary plaques. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with standard therapy, intensive therapy prevented atherosclerotic progression more effectively in native coronary plaques in patients with NA.

    BACKGROUND: A recent clinical trial demonstrated that optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) guidance in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is noninferior to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance in patients with coronary artery disease with regard to target vessel failure (composed of cardiac death, myocardial infarction attributed to the target vessel, and clinically-driven target vessel revascularization) at 12 months. The impact of OFDI guidance in PCI for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains uncertain. METHODS: OPINION ACS is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label, parallel group, non-inferiority trial in Japan. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive either OFDI- or IVUS-guided PCI. PCI is performed using the sirolimus-eluting stent in accordance with certain OFDI and IVUS criteria for optimal stent deployment. All patients will undergo follow-up angiography and OFDI imaging at 8 months. The primary endpoint is the minimum lumen area, as measured by OFDI at 8 months. CONCLUSION: The OPINION ACS trial outcomes will provide insights regarding the impact of OFDI-guided PCI on in-stent restenosis at 8 months in patients with ACS.

    Although balloon angioplasty for femoropopliteal artery lesions has been associated with restenosis rates of up to 60% at 12 months, the mechanism of restenosis has not been fully evaluated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the vascular features observed on optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) before and after balloon angioplasty of femoropopliteal artery lesions, and restenosis at 6 months. This study was a prospective multicenter single arm study. OFDI was performed before and after balloon angioplasty and plaque characteristics and vascular features, along with de novo lesions, were assessed. The primary outcome was the presence or absence of restenosis 6 months after balloon angioplasty. Residual platelet reactivity was assessed according to VerifyNow platelet reactivity units (PRUs). The number of patients completing 6 months of follow-up was 47, of which 14 had developed restenosis. Maximum thickness of the dissection flap (odds ratio (OR) 2.71; 95% confidence interval [0.9-8.0]; p = 0.071) and lesion length were identified as risk factors for restenosis (OR 1.015; 95% confidence interval [0.001-0.029]; p = 0.039). The mean PRU at the time of treatment in patients with restenosis was significantly higher than in those without restenosis (286.3 ± 82.6 vs. 208.5 ± 03.6, p = 0.026). Long lesions and major dissection on OFDI after balloon angioplasty for femoropopliteal artery lesions increase restenosis at 6 months. In addition, high residual platelet reactivity at the time of EVT may also be a risk factor for restenosis.Clinical Trial Registration Number UMIN000021120.

    Background: Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA)-derived fractional flow reserve (FFRCT) is an established tool for identifying lesion-specific ischemia that is now approved for use by the Japanese insurance system. However, current clinical reimbursement is strictly limited to institutions with designated appropriate use criteria (AUC). This study assessed differences in physicians' behavior (e.g., use and interpretation of FFRCT, final management) according to Japanese AUC and non-AUC site designation. Methods and Results: Of 5,083 patients in the ADVANCE Registry, 1,829 from Japan were enrolled in this study. Physicians' behavior after interrogating CCTA and FFRCT was analyzed separately according to AUC and non-AUC site designation. Compared with AUC sites, patients referred for FFRCT from non-AUC sites had a higher rate of negative FFRCT, less severe anatomic stenosis, and a slightly lower rate of management plan reclassification (51.2% vs. 61.3%), with near-identical utility in both groups. Actual care corresponded equally well to post-FFRCT plans in both groups. The likelihood of revascularization for positive or negative FFRCT was similar between the 2 groups. Importantly, AUC and non-AUC sites were equally unlikely to revascularize patients with negative FFRCT and stenosis >50% or patients with positive FFRCT and stenosis <50%. Conclusions: Compared with AUC sites, non-AUC sites had lower disease burden and reclassification of management plans, but nearly identical clinical integration. Actual care corresponded equally well to post-FFRCT recommendations at both sites.

    OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to identify a cut-off value to predict the resolution of incomplete-stent-apposition (ISA) after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation at early follow-up. BACKGROUND: To date, appropriate stent apposition at the acute period using intracoronary imaging has been recommended because persistent ISA is considered to be a risk factor for stent thrombosis. We examined the indices for resolving acute ISA. In particular, we determined the cut-off value for strut vessel distance (SV-distance) as visualized by optical coherence tomography (OCT) at 8 months after CoCr-EES implantation. However, the cut-off value of SV-distance for the earlier resolution of ISA is unclear. METHODS: A total of 95 cases and 103 stents were registered in the MECHANISM Elective substudy. The SV-distance was measured at the deepest site of the target malapposition and every 1 mm from the proximal edge to the distal edge of the mal-apposed area using OCT. Cut-off values for ISA resolution at 1 and 3 months were estimated by SV-distance using receiver operating characteristic analysis. RESULTS: The total number of analyzed struts was 14,418 at the 1-month follow-up and 11,986 at the 3-month follow-up. The optimal SV-distance cut-off values just after stent implantation to predict ISA resolution were 185 µm at the 1-month follow-up and 195 μm at the 3-month follow-up. CONCLUSION: For resolution of ISA, SV-distance cut-off values of 185 µm at 1 month postimplantation and 195 μm at 3 months postimplantation can be used as the index of endpoint of the percutaneous coronary intervention.

    A 92-year-old man was referred to our hospital with decompensated heart failure. He was treated with diuretics and inotropic agents, but the clinical response was unsatisfactory. Echocardiography incidentally revealed an atrial septal defect (ASD) with a significant left-to-right shunt and pulmonary-to-systemic-blood-flow ratio of 2.36. Because the ASD was considered to be the primary cause of his treatment-resistant heart failure, the patient underwent transcatheter ASD closure. Shortly after shunt closure, his hemodynamics significantly improved, and he was discharged nine days later. This is an extremely rare case of a nonagenarian who showed an excellent clinical course after transcatheter ASD closure.

    BACKGROUND: Cholesterol efflux from atherosclerotic lesion is a key function of high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Recently, we established a simple, high-throughput, cell-free assay to evaluate the capacity of HDL to accept additional cholesterol, which is herein referred to as "cholesterol uptake capacity (CUC)". OBJECTIVE: To clarify the cross-sectional relationship between CUC and coronary plaque properties. METHODS: We enrolled 135 patients to measure CUC and assess the morphological features of angiographic stenosis by optical coherence tomography (OCT). We estimated the extent of the lipid-rich plaque by multiplying the mean lipid arc by lipid length (lipid index). The extent of the OCT-detected macrophage accumulation in the target plaque was semi-quantitatively estimated using a grading system. RESULTS: Lipid-rich plaque lesions were identified in 125 patients (92.6%). CUC was inversely associated with the lipid index (R = -0.348, P < 0.0001). In addition, CUC was also inversely associated with macrophage score (R = -0.327, P < 0.0001). Conversely, neither circulating levels of HDL cholesterol nor apoA1 showed a similar relationship. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated that CUC was inversely related to lipid-rich plaque burden and the extent of macrophage accumulation, suggesting that CUC could be useful for cardiovascular risk stratification.

    BACKGROUND: Stent thrombosis (ST) remains a severe complication following stent implantation. We previously reported the risk factors for ST after 2nd-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) in the REAL-ST (Retrospective Multicenter Registry of ST After First- and Second-Generation DES Implantation) registry.Methods and Results:In this subanalysis, we aimed to reveal the difference in ST between right coronary (RCA) and left (LCA) coronary arteries. A total of 307 patients with ST were divided into the RCA-ST group (n=93) and the LCA-ST group (n=214). Multivariate analysis revealed younger age (odds ratio [OR] 0.96, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.93-0.99, P=0.01), ostial lesion at the time of index percutaneous coronary intervention (OR 4.37, 95% CI 1.43-13.33, P=0.01), bifurcation lesion at the time of index PCI (OR 0.05, 95% CI 0.02-0.12, P<0.01), chronic total occlusion (CTO) lesion at the time of index PCI indication (OR 4.19, 95% CI 1.05-16.71, P=0.04), and use of prasugrel at the time of ST (OR 7.30, 95% CI 1.44-36.97, P=0.02) were significantly associated with RCA-ST. CONCLUSIONS: Younger age, ostial or CTO lesion, and use of prasugrel at the time of ST were prominent factors in RCA-ST, whereas bifurcation lesion was associated with LCA-ST. We should pay attention to the differences between RCA-ST and LCA-ST to prevent ST.

    AIMS: We aimed to assess the effect of 10 mg/day of rosuvastatin plus eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) versus 2.5 mg/day of rosuvastatin on the extent of neoatherosclerosis using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS AND RESULTS: We randomly assigned 50 patients with non-obstructive neoatherosclerotic plaques detected on OCT to receive either rosuvastatin 10 mg/day and EPA 1,800 mg/day (intensive therapy group) or rosuvastatin 2.5 mg (standard therapy group). Follow-up OCT was performed one year later to evaluate serial changes in neoatherosclerosis. The serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level decreased significantly from baseline to 12-month follow-up in the intensive therapy group (89 mg/dL to 70 mg/dL; p<0.001), while no change occurred in the standard therapy group. Lipid index change and percent changes in macrophage grade were significantly lower in the intensive therapy group than in the standard therapy group (-53.6 vs 310.1, p=0.001; -37.0% vs 35.3%, p<0.001; respectively). Percent changes in lipid index and macrophage grade were positively correlated with the changes in serum LDL-C and C-reactive protein levels, and negatively correlated with the change in serum EPA/arachidonic acid and 18-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid (EPA bioactive metabolite) level. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with rosuvastatin 2.5 mg/day, rosuvastatin 10 mg/day and EPA 1,800 mg/day significantly stabilised non-obstructive neoatherosclerotic plaques.

    OBJECTIVES: We explored the anatomical, plaque, and hemodynamic characteristics of high-risk non-obstructive coronary lesions that caused acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS: From the EMERALD study which included ACS patients with available coronary CT angiography (CCTA) before the ACS, non-obstructive lesions (percent diameter stenosis < 50%) were selected. CCTA images were analyzed for lesion characteristics by independent CCTA and computational fluid dynamics core laboratories. The relative importance of each characteristic was assessed by information gain. RESULTS: Of the 132 lesions, 24 were the culprit for ACS. The culprit lesions showed a larger change in FFRCT across the lesion (ΔFFRCT) than non-culprit lesions (0.08 ± 0.07 vs 0.05 ± 0.05, p = 0.012). ΔFFRCT showed the highest information gain (0.051, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.050-0.052), followed by low-attenuation plaque (0.028, 95% CI 0.027-0.029) and plaque volume (0.023, 95% CI 0.022-0.024). Lesions with higher ΔFFRCT or low-attenuation plaque showed an increased risk of ACS (hazard ratio [HR] 3.25, 95% CI 1.31-8.04, p = 0.010 for ΔFFRCT; HR 2.60, 95% CI 1.36-4.95, p = 0.004 for low-attenuation plaque). The prediction model including ΔFFRCT, low-attenuation plaque and plaque volume showed the highest ability in ACS prediction (AUC 0.725, 95% CI 0.724-0.727). CONCLUSION: Non-obstructive lesions with higher ΔFFRCT or low-attenuation plaque showed a higher risk of ACS. The integration of anatomical, plaque, and hemodynamic characteristics can improve the noninvasive prediction of ACS risk in non-obstructive lesions. KEY POINTS: • Change in FFR CT across the lesion (ΔFFR CT ) was the most important predictor of ACS risk in non-obstructive lesions. • Non-obstructive lesions with higher ΔFFR CT or low-attenuation plaque were associated with a higher risk of ACS. • The integration of anatomical, plaque, and hemodynamic characteristics can improve the noninvasive prediction of ACS risk.

    The purpose of this study was to clarify a cut-off value for acute incomplete stent apposition (ISA) volume and maximum-depth to predict ISA resolution at 1- and 3-month follow-up in patients treated with cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents. In total, 95 cases and 103 stents were registered in the MECHANISM-Elective sub-study. Acute ISA-volume was measured by the trapezoid rule. ISA resolution of cut-off value at 1- and 3-month was estimated by ISA-volume and maximum-depth using receiver operatorating characteristic curve analysis. The total number of analysed acute ISAs was 202 in the 1-month group and 225 in the 3-month group. A total of 123 ISAs at 1-month and a total of 169 ISAs at 3-month had been resolved. The cut-off value of ISA resolution by ISA-volume was 0.169 mm3 at 1-month (AUC: 0.725, sensitivity: 72.2%, specificity: 61.0%) and 0.295 mm3 at 3-month (AUC: 0.757, sensitivity: 75.0%, specificity: 60.4%). The cut-off value of ISA resolution by ISA maximum-depth demonstrated was 0.285 mm at 1-month (area under curve (AUC): 0.789, sensitivity: 70.9%, specificity: 69.9%) and 0.305 mm at 3-month (AUC: 0.663, sensitivity: 60.7%, specificity: 66.9%). Incidence of ISA resolution was significantly lower in combination with cut-off values of ISA-volume and maximum-depth (33%, p < 0.001, at 1-month; 56%, p = 0.003, at 3-month). Combining the cut-off value of ISA-volume with the maximum-depth might be helpful to consider the endpoint of the PCI procedure.

    BACKGROUND: Analysis of pooled clinical data has shown the safety of 3 months of dual antiplatelet therapy with everolimus-eluting cobalt-chromium stents (Co-Cr EESs). This study evaluated early and mid-term vascular responses to Co-Cr EESs in patients with stable coronary artery disease. METHODS: The Multicenter Comparison of Early and Late Vascular Responses to Everolimus-Eluting Cobalt-Chromium Stent and Platelet Aggregation Studies in Patients With Stable Angina Managed as Elective Case (MECHANISM-Elective) study (NCT02014818) is a multicenter optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry. Enrolled patients were evaluated by OCT immediately after everolimus-eluting stent implantation were prospectively allocated to 1 month (n = 50) or 3 months (n = 50) OCT follow-up and then received a 12-month OCT evaluation. The incidences of intrastent thrombus (IS-Th) and irregular protrusion (IRP) were also assessed. RESULTS: The percentage of uncovered struts was 6.4% ± 10.3% at 1 month (P < 0.001 vs. postprocedure) and 0.5% ± 0.9% at 12 months (P < 0.001 vs. 1 month). The corresponding values in the 3-month cohort were 2.0% ± 2.5% (P < 0.001 vs. postprocedure) and 0.5% ± 1.5% (P < 0.001 vs. 3 months). The incidence of IS-Th was 32.7% at 1 month, 5.4% at 3 months, and 2.0% at 12 months. IRP was observed in 21.8% of patients post-EES but had totally resolved at 1, 3, and 12 months. CONCLUSION: Early and mid-term vascular reactions after Co-Cr EES implantation in stable patients with coronary artery disease in the MECHANISM-Elective included dynamic resolution of IS-Th and IRP and rapid decrease in uncovered struts. Thus, EES may allow shortening of dual antiplatelet therapy duration less than 3 months in this patient subset.

    The aim of this study was to elucidate the vascular responses to paclitaxel-eluting stent (Zilver PTX stent) in superficial femoral artery lesion at different elapsed times using angioscopy. Patients who received Zilver PTX stent implantation from five centers were enrolled. We performed angioscopic examinations at 2, 6, and 12 months after implantation and evaluated neointimal coverage (NIC) grade, intra-stent thrombus (IS-Th) grade, and presence of yellow plaque. NIC grade 0 was defined as stent struts exposed; grade 1, struts transparently visible although covered; grade 2, struts embedded in the neointima, but translucent; and grade 3, struts fully embedded and invisible. IS-Th was graded as follows: grade 0 (none), 1 (focal), and 2 (diffusely spread). Angioscopic follow-up evaluation was performed at 2 months (25 patients, 42 lesions), 6 months (18 patients, 23 stents), and 12 months (14 patients, 24 stents) after stent implantation. Dominant NIC grade significantly increased over time; however, 16.3% of the cases had NIC grade 1 or 2 at 12 months. IS-Th grade decreased; however IS-Th and yellow plaque were persistently observed in 62.5% and 83.3% cases, respectively, at 12 months. An ongoing healing response was observed at 12 months after implantation; however, thrombogenic findings were noted. Prolonged dual antiplatelet therapy could potentially enhance the clinical utility of Zilver PTX.

    Background The risk factors and long-term clinical outcomes of patients with definite stent thrombosis (ST) after second-generation drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation have not yet been adequately assessed. Methods and Results The REAL-ST (Retrospective Multicenter Registry of ST After First- and Second-Generation DES Implantation) included 313 definite ST of second-generation DES (early ST, n=179; late ST, n=66; very late ST, n=68). Four patients without definite ST of second-generation DES were identified as control patients for each ST case. Risk factors of definite ST were mostly different according to the timing of ST: ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, non-ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction, and unstable angina at presentation, current smoking, left ventricular ejection fraction <40%, prior percutaneous coronary intervention, stent overlap, severely calcified lesion, left main coronary artery lesion, proximal left anterior descending lesion, postdiameter stenosis ≥20%, for early ST; age <70 years, ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction at presentation, hemodialysis, left ventricular ejection fraction <40%, in-stent restenosis, and severely calcified lesion for late ST; and proximal left anterior descending lesion and in-stent restenosis for very late ST. Cumulative 4-year incidence of death after the index ST events was significantly higher in the ST patients than control patients (33.0% versus 12.3%, P<0.001 for early ST versus control; 30.6% versus 14.2%, P<0.001 for late ST versus control; and 28.0% versus 13.0%, P<0.001 for very late ST versus control, respectively). Conclusions Risk factors of definite ST after second-generation DES implantation were mostly different according to the timing of ST. Definite ST patients showed unfavorable long-term clinical outcomes compared with those without definite ST. Clinical Trial Registration URL: https://www.umin.ac.jp .

    BACKGROUND: Coronary computed tomography angiography (cCTA)-derived fractional flow reserve (FFRCT) is a promising diagnostic method for the evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, clinical data regarding FFRCTin Japan are scarce, so we assessed the clinical impact of using FFRCTin a Japanese population.Methods and Results:The ADVANCE registry is an international prospective FFRCTregistry of patients suspected of CAD. Of 5,083 patients, 1,829 subjects enrolled from Japan were analyzed. Demographics, symptoms, cCTA, FFRCT, treatment strategy, and 90-day major cardiovascular events (MACE) were assessed. Reclassification of treatment strategy between cCTA alone and cCTA+FFRCToccurred in 55.8% of site investigations and in 56.9% in the core laboratory analysis. Patients with positive FFR (FFRCT≤0.80) were less likely to have non-obstructive disease on invasive coronary angiography than patients with negative FFR (FFRCT>0.80) (20.5% vs. 46.1%, P=0.0001). After FFRCT, 67.0% of patients with positive results underwent revascularization, whereas 96.1% of patients with negative FFRCTwere medically treated. MACE occurred in 5 patients with positive FFRCT, but none occurred in patients with negative FFRCTwithin 90 days. CONCLUSIONS: In this Japanese population, FFRCTmodified the treatment strategy in more than half of the patients. FFRCTshowed potential for stratifying patients suspected of CAD properly into invasive or non-invasive management pathways.

    Background We evaluated the importance of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) functionality for target-lesion revascularization in patients treated with coronary stents using a rapid cell-free assay system to evaluate the functional capacity of HDL to accept additional cholesterol (cholesterol-uptake capacity; CUC). Methods and Results From an optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry of patients treated with coronary stents, 207 patients were enrolled and their HDL was functionally evaluated by measuring the CUC. Follow-up OCT was performed (median duration, 24.5 months after stenting) to evaluate the presence of neoatherosclerosis. Clinical follow-up was performed to assess target-lesion revascularization for a median duration of 42.3 months after stent implantation. Neoatherosclerosis was identified in 37 patients (17.9%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that a decreased CUC was independently associated with neoatherosclerosis (odds ratio, 0.799; P<0.001). The CUC showed a significant inverse correlation with incidence of target-lesion revascularization (odds ratio, 0.887; P=0.003) and with lipid accumulation inside stents, suggesting that neoatherosclerosis contributes to the association between CUC and target-lesion revascularization. Conclusions Impaired HDL functionality, detected as decreased CUC, might lead to future stent failure by provoking atherogenic changes of the neointima within stents. Both quantitative and qualitative assessments of HDL might enable the improved prediction of clinical outcomes after stent implantation.

    Background: While hemodynamics and exercise capacity in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) can be improved by invasive therapy such as pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) and balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA), there has been little data on the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in such patients. Methods and Results: This single-center and observational study compared the impact of invasive therapy on HRQOL. We utilized the Medical Outcome Study 36-Item Short Health Survey (SF-36) to measure HRQOL and compared HRQOL changes after PEA and BPA. A total of 48 patients were diagnosed with CTEPH. Of these, 39 patients completed questionnaires before and after invasive therapy. The PEA group (n=15) and the BPA group (n=24) had similar improvements in clinical parameters. With regard to HRQOL score, both groups had fairly low scores in physical functioning (PF), role physical (RP), general health (GH), social functioning (SF), role emotional (RE), and physical component summary (PCS) at baseline. PF, GH, vitality (VT), mental health (MH), and PCS had significant improvements in the PEA group while PCS and all subscales except for bodily pain (BP) had significant improvements in the BPA group. Furthermore, changes between baseline and follow-up were not significantly different between the 2 groups. Conclusions: BPA for patients who are ineligible for PEA can recover HRQOL to a similar level to that achieved by PEA.

    It is well known that patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in adults, especially in the elderly, differs from that in pediatric patients. A 68-year-old woman with a PDA with focal calcification at the aortic orifice of the ampulla with a minimum diameter of 4.0 mm and length of 14.8 mm, was treated with a 10/8-mm Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO) (St. Jude Medical Corp, St. Paul, MN, USA). After device implantation, systolic blood pressure (BP) increased to approximately 220 mmHg from 130 mmHg. She experienced transient dyspnea from hypertensive heart failure, which improved through continuous infusion of anti-hypertensive agents. She suddenly felt pressure on her chest 12 h post-procedure and collapsed. Surgical thoracotomy revealed an ascending aortic dissection into the pericardial space. In retrospective review, the ADO may have been slightly deformed by fluoroscopy. The complication may have been triggered by the resilience caused by device deformation, damage to the aortic wall due to the aortic side of the device, uneven elasticity of the arterial wall, and uncontrolled excessively high blood pressure. .

    BACKGROUND: Trans-fatty acid (TFA) intake increases the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Our previous cross-sectional survey showed that middle-aged patients with CAD in Japan have elevated serum TFA. In this study, we longitudinally investigated whether elevated TFA is a risk factor in the secondary prevention of CAD for the same-age patients. Methods and Results: A total of 112 patients (age, 21-66 years) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention were followed up for up to 2 years. Serum elaidic acid was measured using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry as a marker of TFA intake and divided into quartiles. The primary endpoint was ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization (TLR). The hazard ratio (HR) for TLR increased significantly with higher serum elaidic acid (P<0.01). The significant positive trend remained unchanged after adjusting for conventional lipid profile and bare-metal stent usage. In contrast, although triglycerides and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were positively correlated with elaidic acid, they were not associated with TLR. On multivariable Cox proportional hazard analysis, elevated elaidic acid was independently associated with TLR risk after adjusting for conventional coronary risks (HR, 10.7, P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Elevated elaidic acid is associated with higher TLR rate in middle-aged patients with CAD, suggesting that excessive TFA intake is becoming a serious health problem in Japan.

    BACKGROUND: Although a recent clinical trial demonstrated that alirocumab, a proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitor, significantly reduces the incidence of acute coronary events, the impact of alirocumab on plaque stabilization remains uncertain. The Efficacy of ALirocumab for Thin-cap fibroatheroma in patients with coronary Artery disease estImated by optical coherence tomogRaphy (ALTAIR) study will investigate the effect of alirocumab on thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) in Japanese patients who underwent recent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS AND DESIGN: ALTAIR is a phase IV, open-label, randomized, parallel-group, single-center study involving blinded optical coherence tomography (OCT) image analysis in Japanese adults hospitalized for PCI and having suboptimal control of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels (>70mg/dL) despite statin therapy. Patients will be randomized (1:1) to the alirocumab arm (alirocumab 75mg every 2 weeks added to rosuvastatin 10mg/day) or the standard-of-care arm (rosuvastatin 10mg/day, with initiation and/or dose adjustment of non-statin lipid-lowering to achieve an LDL-C target of <70mg/dL). OCT imaging will be conducted at baseline and at week 36 (post-treatment). The primary objective is to compare the alirocumab and standard-of-care arms regarding the change in TCFA fibrous-cap thickness after 9 months of treatment. CONCLUSION: The outcomes of ALTAIR (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03552432) will provide insights into the effect of alirocumab on plaque vulnerability following PCI in patients with suboptimal LDL-C control despite stable statin therapy.

    The impact of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with adjusted-dose (3.75 mg/day) prasugrel for Japanese patients has not been fully investigated in terms of local arterial healing following the elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The ROUTE-01 elective study was a prospective, 12-center and single-arm registry that enrolled 123 patients who underwent elective PCI with everolimus-eluting stents (EESs) under DAPT with a combination of adjusted-dose prasugrel and aspirin. Serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed at the index PCI and 9-month follow-up to assess the relationship between in-stent thorombus (IST) and residual platelet reactivity measuring platelet reactivity unit (PRU). The patients were classified as extensive, intermediate, and poor metabolizers by cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) loss-of-function polymorphisms. The prevalence of IST was 9.0% by 9-month OCT, with no difference amongst the three groups (p = 0.886). The incidences of malapposed and uncovered struts were not different among the groups. PRU was not statistically different among the groups. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the independent predictor for IST on 9-month OCT was irregular protrusion (odds ratio = 8.952, p = 0.037) on post-PCI OCT, not CYP2C19 loss-of-function polymorphisms. An adequate anti-thrombotic effect with an acceptable incidence of IST was observed irrespective of CYP2C19 loss-of-function polymorphisms. Our data suggests that adjusted-dose prasugrel and aspirin is a feasible treatment option in Japanese patients treated with EESs in elective PCI.

    The use of cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents (CoCr-EES) for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) reduces the incidence of stent thrombosis compared with bare metal stents, and a substantial difference is apparent in the initial 2 weeks. However, vascular behavior during this early period remains unclear. This was a prospective study (MECHANISM-AMI-2W) to investigate early vascular responses in STEMI patients immediately after CoCr-EES implantation and at 2-week follow-up using frequency domain-optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT). The study enrolled 52 patients (age 63.7 ± 11.7 years, male 85.0%), of whom 44 patients were available for complete serial FD-OCT analyses. Both % uncovered struts and % malapposed struts were improved at 2-week follow-up (63 ± 20 vs. 21 ± 14%, p < 0.0001 and 7.3 ± 9.0 vs. 4.7 ± 5.9%, p = 0.005, respectively). Thrombus was decreased, with significant changes in longitudinal length to stent (28.8 ± 27.7 vs. 18.1 ± 20.2%, p = 0.0001) and maximal area (0.93 ± 0.84 vs. 0.65 ± 0.63 mm2, p = 0.034). As a result, the average lumen area was significantly larger at 2 weeks (6.49 ± 1.82 vs. 6.71 ± 1.89 mm2, p = 0.048, respectively). The number of dissection flaps was lower (0.86 ± 1.11 vs. 0.52 ± 0.90%, p = 0.024). In conclusion, this study showed early vascular responses to CoCr-EES for STEMI lesions-including a significant reduction of thrombus-that resulted in lumen enlargement, earlier progression of strut coverage, and improvements in strut apposition and dissection. The combination of these factors may therefore be responsible for the safety of CoCr-EES within the initial 2 weeks.

  • Impact of Cytochrome P450 2C19 Reduced-Function Polymorphism on Lesions and Clinical Outcome in Japanese Patients After Drug-eluting Stent Implantation
    Tahara N, Shinke T, Otake Hiromasa, Nishio R, Konishi A, Hirata Ken-ichi
    We previously reported that the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 reduced-function polymorphism was associated with decreased responsiveness to clopidogrel and intra-stent thrombus formation, as well as subsequent ischemic events after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation. However, the relationship between the polymorphism and bleeding events remains unclear. Among 1427 consecutive patients who underwent DES implantation at Kobe University Hospital, 247 patients (341 lesions) were enrolled for this prospective observational study. All patients underwent follow-up optical coherence tomography (OCT) at 8 months and CYP2C19 genotyping. The patients were divided into three groups according to the phenotypic effect of the CYP2C19 polymorphism: extensive metabolizers (EM), intermediate metabolizers (IM), and poor metabolizers (PM). OCT findings, and ischemic and bleeding events were compared among the three groups. The frequency of intra-stent thrombi showed an increasing pattern among the patients with EM, IM, and PM (13.3%, 22.6%, and 33.3%, respectively; p = 0.04). The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) also showed an increase across the three groups from extensive to poor metabolizers (7.8%, 10.5%, and 33.3%, respectively; p < 0.01), whereas the frequency of bleeding showed no significant difference among the groups (15.6%, 19.4%, and 21.2%, respectively; p = 0.69). The CYP2C19 polymorphism is associated with the frequency of MACE, but is not related to the incidence of bleeding after percutaneous coronary intervention in Japanese patients receiving clopidogrel.

    BACKGROUND: Although a prospective randomized control study revealed that 3-month dual anti-platelet therapy (DAPT) is safe and does not compromise the efficacy of everolimus-eluting stent (EES) in selected patients, detailed vessel healing at early phase after EES implantation has yet to be investigated in Japanese patients. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 27 lesions in 19 patients treated with EES were serially evaluated by using optical coherence tomography (OCT) at 3, 6, and 12 months after stent implantation. In addition to standard quantitative OCT parameters, the percentage of stents with peri-strut low-intensity area (PLIA, a region around stent struts homogenously showing lesser intensity than the surrounding tissue, suggesting fibrin deposition or impaired neointima maturation) and that with in-stent thrombi were evaluated. There was a significant, but small increase in neointimal thickness (63±17μm; 83±30μm; and 111±44μm, respectively; p=0.006) and small decrease in average lumen area (6.80±2.57mm2, 6.62±2.58mm2, 6.33±2.58mm2, p=0.038) from the 3- to the 12-month follow-up. The incidences of uncovered and malapposed struts were low at 3 months and did not significantly change at 6 months and 12 months (3.01±4.43; 2.45±3.75; and 1.47±3.16, p=0.143, and 0.75±0.65; 0.63±0.73; and 0.58±1.42, p=0.162, respectively). Also, frequency of struts with PLIA was already low at three months and significantly decreased during the follow-up (6.4±6.5; 4.6±5.4; and 2.3±3.3, respectively; p=0.001). CONCLUSION: Favorable vessel healing was achieved at 3 months after EES implantation without neointimal hyperplasia which was persistently suppressed up to 12 months.

    An 82-year-old man with severe aortic stenosis and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) underwent transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) under general anesthesia. However, following a successful TAVI procedure, he developed progressive respiratory failure because of the exacerbation of IPF. Despite the use of immunosuppressants, the patient could not be saved and he died of respiratory failure. Although TAVI is a less invasive procedure compared to conventional surgical aortic valve replacement, it is currently selected for management of severely ill, frail, and elderly patients. This case highlights the potential risk of IPF exacerbation following a TAVI procedure performed under general anesthesia. .

    Intra-stent thrombus (IS-Th) formed immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with subsequent adverse coronary events. However, the impact of on-treatment platelet reactivity on IS-Th is unknown. PRASFIT-Elective is a multicenter study of PCI patients receiving prasugrel (20/3.75 mg, loading/maintenance dose) or clopidogrel (300/75 mg), with aspirin (100 mg). Among the 742 study patients, 111 were pre-specified for the OCT sub-study. Of these, 82 underwent OCT immediately after PCI to assess IS-Th and at an 8-month follow-up to evaluate the fate of the IS-Th. Lesions were considered resolved when IS-Th were detected after PCI but not on the follow-up or persistent when IS-Th were observed on both scans. The P2Y12 Reactive Unit (PRU) value was determined at the initial PCI and 4 and 48 weeks post-PCI. In 76 patients (86 lesions), we detected 230 IS-Th initially, and 196 IS-Th (85.2%) were resolved at the 8-month OCT. At PCI, but not 4 or 48 weeks after, the resolved IS-Th group had a lower PRU than the persistent IS-Th group (199 ± 101 vs. 266 ± 102, p = 0.008). Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that lower PRU at PCI and less calcified lesions were independent predictive factors for the resolution of IS-Th. Local lesion-related factors and lower on-treatment platelet reactivity at the time of PCI may contribute to the resolution of IS-Th after EES implantation, potentially improving clinical outcome.

    BACKGROUND: Residual symptoms after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) remain as the clinical issues to be solved. Additional balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) after PEA showed its efficacy with symptoms in a case series, although long-term spontaneous recovery of exercise ability after PEA was also reported. However, no studies have validated the clinical efficacy of additional BPA by directly comparing PEA with and without BPA. The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of additional BPA as a sequential hybrid therapy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after PEA. METHODS AND RESULTS: Among 44 patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, 20 patients had residual symptoms after PEA. Of those, 10 patients underwent additional BPA (hybrid group) and were compared with the other 10 patients, who were followed up without BPA (PEA group). The period from PEA to additional BPA was 7.3±2.3 months. In hybrid group, mean pulmonary arterial pressure was significantly improved by PEA (40.6±1.8 to 26.9±3.1 mm Hg, P=0.001) and improved further (to 16.7±1.8 mm Hg, P=0.002) with additional BPA, which resulted in remarkable improvement in World Health Organization (WHO) functional class (pre- to post-BPA: class I/II/III/IV, 0/5/4/1 to 7/3/0/0; P<0.001). Compared with the PEA group at follow-up, the hybrid group achieved better mean pulmonary arterial pressure (18.7±1.7 versus 30.2±3.2 mm Hg, P=0.008), WHO functional class (class I/II/III/IV, 7/3/0/0 versus 0/8/2/0; P=0.001), and 6-minute walking distance (429±38 versus 319±22 m, P=0.028). CONCLUSIONS: A sequential hybrid strategy improved residual symptoms and exercise capacity compared with single-PEA therapy.

    OBJECTIVES: The closure of atrial septal defect (ASD) results in normalized left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) geometry, and can increase LV stroke volume (LVSV), but the parameters associated with this increase after the closure of ASD remain uncertain. METHODS: Seventy ASD patients, who underwent transcatheter closure, were studied. Their mean age was 57.80 ± 16.88 years, 42 (60%) were female, and LV ejection fraction (LVEF) was 66.76% ± 7.91% (all ≥55%). Transthoracic echocardiography was performed before and 3 months after the procedure. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) was determined as the average peak speckle tracking strain of 18 segments from the 3 standard apical views, LV dispersion was defined as standard deviation of time-to-peak strain from the same views, and RV systolic function was calculated by averaging the 3-regional peak speckle tracking longitudinal strains from the RV free wall. A significant relative increase in LVSV between before and 3 months after the closure was defined as ∆LVSV ≥15%. Twenty age-, gender-, and LVEF-matched controls served as the control group. RESULTS: Global longitudinal strain (GLS) and RV free wall strain were similar for ASD patients and controls, but LV dispersion in ASD patients was significantly larger. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) remained unchanged after transcatheter closure, whereas RV free wall strain and LV dispersion decreased significantly. An important finding of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that ∆LV dispersion was the only independent determinant of increased LVSV after the closure (OR 1.023; 95% CI 1.001-1.046; P < .01). CONCLUSIONS: The assessment of LV dispersion may well have clinical implications for better management of ASD patients after transcatheter closure.

    BACKGROUND AND AIMS: This study examined the impact of CD14++CD16+ monocytes on coronary plaque vulnerability, as assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT), and investigated their association with daily glucose fluctuation. Although increased CD14++CD16+ monocyte levels have been reported to increase cardiovascular events, their impact on coronary plaque vulnerability in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with or without diabetes mellitus (DM) remains unclear. METHODS: This prospective observational study included 50 consecutive patients with CAD, receiving lipid-lowering therapy and undergoing coronary angiography and OCT. Patients were divided into 3 tertiles according to the CD14++CD16+ monocyte percentages assessed by flow cytometry. Standard OCT parameters were assessed for 97 angiographically intermediate lesions (diameter stenosis: 30-70%). Daily glucose fluctuation was analyzed by measuring the mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (MAGE). RESULTS: CD14++CD16+ monocytes negatively correlated with fibrous cap thickness (r = -0.508, p < 0.01). The presence of thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) was increased stepwise according to the tertile of CD14++CD16+ monocytes (0 [tertile 1] vs. 5 [tertile 2] vs. 10 [tertile 3], p < 0.01). CD14++CD16+ monocytes were a significant determinant of TCFA (OR 1.279, p = 0.001). In non-DM patients, a significant relationship was found between CD14++CD16+ monocytes and MAGE (r = 0.477, p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS: CD14++CD16+ monocytes were associated with coronary plaque vulnerability in CAD patients with well-regulated lipid levels both in DM and non-DM patients. Cross-talk between glucose fluctuation and CD14++CD16+ monocytes may enhance plaque vulnerability, particularly in non-DM patients. CD14++CD16+ monocytes could be a possible therapeutic target for coronary plaque stabilization.

    【背景と目的】冠動脈ステント留置後遠隔期再狭窄には,拡張後のステント断面積,ステント外の残存プラーク量が影響するとされる.今回,血管内超音波(IVUS)ガイド下にbare metal Bx velocityステントの留置を行い,病変部動脈リモデリングとの関連を検討した.
    【方法】対象は,同ステントの留置前後に良好なIVUS画像が得られた62病変(53症例).経皮的冠動脈形成術(PCI)前に,IVUSにより病変部血管断面積(vessel area:VA)/平均対照部VA>1.0をポジティブリモデリング(PR)群(n=30),≦1.0をnon-PR群(n=32)とし,比較検討した.PCI前,ステント留置後の病変部のVA(mm2),内腔面積(lumenarea:LA)(mm2),プラーク面積率(%plaquearea:%PA=VA-LA/VA)を計測し,PCI前後,遠隔期(6±1カ月後)に定量的冠動脈造影(QCA)を行い,病変部最小血管径(MLD)(mm),径狭窄率(%DS),病変長(LL)(mm)を計測,遠隔期%DS>50%を再狭窄とした.PR群について,ステント拡張後残存%PAの中央値(47%)で2群に分け,再狭窄率を比較した.
    【結果】使用ステント径,長さ,最大拡張圧,最終バルーン径は両群間に差はなかった.PR群,non-PR群ともに,術後同等のステント断面積が得られたが,慢性期の内径損失がPR群で高い傾向にあり,再狭窄率が高かった(52%vs25%;p<0.05).PR群において残存%PAの少ない例(%PA:40.9±5.3%)と多い例(54.2±9.0%)の間に再狭窄率に差はなかった(46%vs42%).
    【結語】冠動脈病変部血管のポジティブリモデリングは,Bx velocityステント留置後の,遠隔期再狭窄に寄与すると考えられた.

    本研究の目的は、動脈硬化性疾患(冠動脈疾患CAD、大動脈瘤AA、大動脈弁狭窄症AS)のシングルセルアトラスの作成と全ゲノム解析を行い、トランスオミックス統合解析を行うことで、それぞれの疾患の相違点を炙り出し、疾患のリスク層別化を行い、発症メカニズムを解明することである。本研究では、これら3疾患について、1)病変部のシングルセル+核RNAシークエンス(scRNAseq+snRNAseq)からシングルセルアトラスを作成、各々の疾患特異的マクロファージの同定を行うと同時に、2)T細胞レパトア解析から各々の疾患において、特徴的な抗原が存在するのかを明らかにする。さらには、3)Genotyping of Transcriptomes (GoT)による シングルセルレベルで骨髄のクローン性造血の関与を調べる解析と4)全ゲノム解析による遺伝素因とトランスクリプトームの関連を解析する、expression quantitative locus (eQTL)解析を行う。3)と4)の実施にて、ゲノム・トランスクリプトーム統合解析が達成できる。すでに、3疾患の少数サンプルでのシングルセルトランスクリプトーム解析は終了し、シングルセルアトラスの概要は見えてきている。CADでT細胞受容体レパトア解析が終了し論文報告を行った。AAでは、結果を受けマウスでの実験も同時実施しており、マクロファージやB細胞での疾患特異的な特徴のデータを得ている。ASでのクローン性造血(CH)の原因となる体細胞遺伝子変異の解析数を増加させており、少数患者でのGoT解析を進めている。まずは3)GoTの統合解析手法の確立を目指す。全ゲノム解析は実施できておらず、4)eQTLの実施までには、さらに時間が必要と考えられる。

    我々は数値流体力学解析(Computational Fluid Dynamic: CFD)を用いてプラーク外だけではなくプラーク内部から発生する機械的ストレス(plaque structural stress: PSS)を定量化する新たな手法を確立し、プラークの不安定化や破綻との関連を検討することを目的に本検討課題に取り組んでいる。これまで申請者らは、光干渉断層影像法(Optical coherence tomography: OCT)画像からCFDを用いて算出した様々な血行力学的因子が、プラークの破綻部位や破綻様式と関連することを報告してきた。しかしOCTのみで作成した3D血管モデルでは血管の屈曲やねじれを反映できず、PSSの評価は困難であった。また剪断力やWall shear stressを検討する際にも、OCTだけを用いた血管を直線化したこれまでのモデルでは、正確な評価が難しく、ひいては信頼度の高い心血管イベント予測は困難であることが予想された。そこで本検討課題では、まず最初のステップとして2方向の血管造影により構築した3D血管モデルにOCT画像を融合させる方法を確立すべく検討を開始した。現在まで、5例の血管造影、OCTを施行された患者のデータを用いて、2方向の血管造影により構築した3D血管モデルにOCT画像を融合させる方法に関する検討を行い、スムーズな解析の進行と、その方法論を確立するに至っている。その過程で愛媛大学理工学科機械工学講座:保田和則教授や愛媛大学医学部附属病院、清家史靖医師と、定期的にweb会議を施行、助言を頂きながら順調な計画の進行を認めている。今後はADINA 8.6.1 (ADINA R&D, Inc., USA)を用いてプラークにかかる剪断力やWSS, PSSを解析する方法を確立するべく実際の症例を追加し検討を行う予定である。

    2018年度にはLGEMRIを用いて同定した心房繊維化領域への高周波通電の効果について、良好な反応(心房細動停止ないし他の心房性不整脈への移行)を認める場合の特徴を明らかにすることができました。①一定の信号強度を有する(>2SD)に加えて、②まだらな分布をしている(entropyが高い)ことが必須条件となります。低電位領域は心房細動器質として注目されておりましたが、LGEMRIで同定された領域はさらに特異度が高くより効率的な心房細動アブレーションが可能となる事を確認できました。 2019年度は、同手法を用いて個々の心房細動基質に直接的に治療を行う、いわゆるテーラーメイド治療を確立し前向きに治療介入を行いました。最終アブレーション1年後の長期成績についても通常アブレーション法(肺静脈隔離術)に比して良好な成績を得ることを確認できました。本成果は2020年3月に開催予定であった第84回日本循環器学会学術集会で発表予定でした。またLGEMRIを用いた治療創の評価についても研究を行い、原著論文として受理されております。(J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol. 2019 Oct;30(10):1830-1840)また炎症分布の視覚化については、前向き介入研究を行い、PETMRIの撮像プロトコールの確立を目指しております。現時点では、治療により形成された強い心房炎症についてはPETMRIで視覚化できることが確認できました。同研究成果については近日中に論文投稿を予定しております。また初年度のプロトコール論文(Circ Rep 2019; 1: 149 - 152 doi: 10.1253/circrep.CR-19-0003)に基づきPETMRIを用いて心房炎症の視覚化の確立を行っております。治療創に認める強力な心房炎症はPETMRIによる視覚化に成功しており、本成果は論文として投稿準備をしております。

    We showed that unstable, rupture prone plaque is related with several hemodynamic parameters such as wall shear stress and axial plaque stress. Also, we showed that, in patients treated with coronary stents, vessel healing is affected not only by wall shear stress, but by wall shear stress exposed time and wall shear stress variability. These findings suggest that using computational fluid dynamics analysis might help patients with coronary artery disease to prevent acute coronary event as well as stent related events such as restenosis and stent thrombosis.
