Abstract

Background: Clinical and experimental evidence have demonstrated the protective benefits of colchicine in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) through its potential anti-inflammatory effect. However, investigations on the Asian population are limited.

Methods: This retrospective longitudinal cohort study used electronic medical records from a tertiary medical center in Taiwan. Patients with their first AMI from the emergency department between 2010 and 2020 were included. The outcomes included all-cause death, hospitalization for heart failure, stroke, and emergency admission for angina. Propensity-score matching (PSM, 5 to 1) and Cox's proportional hazards regression model were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs).

Results: A total of 2841 patients with their first admission for AMI were identified, of which 176 (6.2%) received colchicine and 2665 (93.8%) did not. After a median follow-up of 21.4 months, the incidence of all-cause death was significantly reduced in the colchicine group (HR, 0.560; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.361-0.862; P = 0.008), driven by the significant risk reduction of cardiovascular death (HR, 0.291; 95% CI, 0.142-0.613; P = 0.001). There was no significant difference of other outcomes. After PSM, the protective effect remained in the colchicine group compared with non-users (HR, 0.331; 95% CI, 0.162-0.690; P = 0.003). The relationship between endpoints and various time-to-treatment initiation showed a significant reduction in the risk of all-cause death for whom colchicine was initiated < Day 3 compared with placebo.

Conclusions: Low-dose colchicine led to a significantly lower risk of cardiovascular death than non-users among patients with a recent myocardial infarction. They benefit from early, in-hospital initiation of colchicine after AMI.

秋水仙碱预防急性心肌梗死后心血管死亡。
背景:临床和实验证据表明秋水仙碱通过其潜在的抗炎作用对急性心肌梗死(AMI)具有保护作用。然而,对亚洲人口的调查是有限的。方法:采用台湾某三级医疗中心的电子病历,进行回顾性纵向队列研究。2010年至2020年间在急诊科首次出现急性心肌梗塞的患者被纳入研究范围。结果包括全因死亡、因心力衰竭、中风住院和因心绞痛急诊入院。采用倾向得分匹配(PSM, 5比1)和Cox比例风险回归模型估计风险比(HRs)。结果:首次入院AMI患者2841例,其中使用秋水仙碱176例(6.2%),未使用秋水仙碱2665例(93.8%)。中位随访21.4个月后,秋水仙碱组全因死亡发生率显著降低(HR, 0.560;95%置信区间[CI], 0.361-0.862;P = 0.008),这是因为心血管死亡风险显著降低(HR, 0.291;95% ci, 0.142-0.613;p = 0.001)。其他结果无显著差异。经PSM治疗后,秋水仙碱组与未服用者相比仍有保护作用(HR, 0.331;95% ci, 0.162-0.690;p = 0.003)。终点和不同开始治疗时间之间的关系显示,秋水仙碱开始治疗的全因死亡风险显著降低。结论:在近期心肌梗死患者中,低剂量秋水仙碱导致心血管死亡风险显著低于未使用秋水仙碱的患者。他们受益于急性心肌梗死后早期在医院内开始使用秋水仙碱。
