Abstract
Aim: The present study aims to investigate the outcomes of Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with Rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Methods: A systemic search was conducted from electronic databases (PubMed/Medline, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar) from inception to 15th September 2023. All statistical analyses were conducted using Review Manager 5.4.1. Studies meeting inclusion criteria were selected. A random-effect model was used when heterogeneity was seen to pool the studies, and the result was reported in the odds ratio (OR) and the corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI).
Results: Eight observational studies were selected to conduct the analysis. A statistically significant increase in major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) was seen in RA patients after undergoing PCI as compared to the control group (OR = 1.18 (1.16, 1.21); p < 0.00001; I2 = 0%). There was no significant difference found in the long-term revascularization outcome between the RA and non-RA patients (OR = 1.18 (0.81, 1.71); p = 0.39; I2 = 93%). Survival rates of all-cause mortality in the long-term outcome were statistically insignificant among the two groups (OR = 1.21 (0.84, 1.74); p = 0.31; I2 = 99%).
Conclusion: Percutaneous coronary intervention is an important intervention to reduce morbidity and mortality but special precautions and attention should be made when it comes to patients with RA. Different precautions such as close monitoring for medication interaction, and tailored post-procedural care are essential in reducing morbidity and mortality.
期刊介绍:
Indian Heart Journal (IHJ) is the official peer-reviewed open access journal of Cardiological Society of India and accepts articles for publication from across the globe. The journal aims to promote high quality research and serve as a platform for dissemination of scientific information in cardiology with particular focus on South Asia. The journal aims to publish cutting edge research in the field of clinical as well as non-clinical cardiology - including cardiovascular medicine and surgery. Some of the topics covered are Heart Failure, Coronary Artery Disease, Hypertension, Interventional Cardiology, Cardiac Surgery, Valvular Heart Disease, Pulmonary Hypertension and Infective Endocarditis. IHJ open access invites original research articles, research briefs, perspective, case reports, case vignette, cardiovascular images, cardiovascular graphics, research letters, correspondence, reader forum, and interesting photographs, for publication. IHJ open access also publishes theme-based special issues and abstracts of papers presented at the annual conference of the Cardiological Society of India.
