Our goal is to identify whether there is a temporal association between COVID pandemics and STEMI admissions and investigate the decreased number of STEMI could be associated to the search volume of Covid, Death and chest pain, measured by Google-Trend (GT). Patients and Methods: We collected our hospital admission of STEMI data and search of covid, death and chest pain in GT search data between March 01, 2020 and May 21, 2020, also we compared to STEMI count same time-limit in the previous year. We used vector-autoregressive model (VAR) to combine the number of daily new cases STEMI and search index to relative association daily covid, and death term search in using GT. Results: During this time-frame, we collected a total of 302 STEMI admitted to our hospital when compared previous year we found a 34% reduction. Spearman’s correlation-coefficient between covid, stemi, and death trend with STEMI, results [(-0.560) p< 0.001, (-0.631) p< 0.001, respectively]; model-1 and model-2 VAR bivariate analysis results in coefficient (-0.532, -2.694), also we found Granger-causality for covid and death to STEMI. Impulse response functions (IRF) depicted the STEMI decreased a relatively large amount by death and covid trend. Conclusion: In the COVID-19 period, our study showed that the uses of Google-Trend data have predict decreasing STEMI cases. Also, plausible Granger causality relationships between covid, death GT data and daily counts of STEMI.

Infarction area is smaller and left ventricular functions are better preserved in patients with spontaneous reperfusion before primary percutane- ous coronary intervention, which is associated with less cardiogenic shock and significantly lower mortality. CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score is a tool used in predicting the risk of stroke and systemic embolism in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, although in recent years the focus has been on predictive value of CHA 2 DS 2 VASc score in a wide spectrum of cardiovascular diseases regardless of the presence of atrial fibrillation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the predictive accuracy of CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score in determining infarct related artery patency in ST elevation myocardial infarction patients. Patients and Methods: A total of 723 patients who presented to our hospital with chest pain and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention with the diagnosis of ST elevation myocardial infarction were retrospectively analyzed. CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score was calculated separately for all patients. Study population was divided into two groups as the occluded infarct related artery group (TIMI 0, 1, 2) and patent infarct related artery group (TIMI 3). A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed in order to determine predictive value of CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score. Results: There were TIMI 0, 1 or 2 flow (occluded infarct related artery group) in 568 (78.6%) patients and TIMI 3 flow (patent infarct related artery group) in 155 (21.4%) patients. Patients in the occluded infarct related artery group had a significantly higher CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score compared to the patent infarct related artery group (2 ± 1 vs. 1 ± 1, p< 0.001). The result of Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve analysis carried out to predict infarct related artery patency was 0.74. We found that a CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score < 2 pre- dicted infarct related artery patency with a sensitivity of 70.9% and a specificity of 44.5% (AUC: 0.735, 95% CI: 0.691-0.779, p< 0.001). Conclusion: The CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score can be used as a simple and reliable tool to predict infarct related artery patency in ST elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention.","PeriodicalId":239985,"journal":{"name":"Koşuyolu Heart Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130917994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies have shown that non-dippers have an increased mortality and morbidity of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Malnutrition and obesity are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, and increased mortality in general population. This study was conducted to evaluate the value of controlling nutritional status (CONUT) and nutrition risk index (NRI) malnutrition scores in prediction of non-dipper status, compared with other measurements. Patients and Methods: In this retrospective study, 167 patients who had ambulatory blood pressure measurements in our hospital were included. One hundred nine patients had previous diagnosis of hypertension; 58 patients were non-hypertensive. CONUT and NRI scores were calculated and their association between dipper and non-dipper patterns were examined. Results: Patients were divided into two groups according to dipper or non-dipper status. The median age of patients with dipper and non-dipper were 50 (45-55, IQR), 51.5 (45-60) respectively. In addition, 109 (65.2%) subjects were hypertensive. Non-dipper status was seen in 93 (57%) patients. Max night blood pressure (BP) and mean night BP were higher in non-dipper group [144 (134-160), 133 (119-140)-126 (115-137); 111 (101120), p< 0.001, respectively].

We also performed ROC curve analysis for optimal cut-off threshold to predict non-dipper hypertension. Optimal cut-off according to Youden index was 0.297, analysis showed cut-off value 57.9, sensitivity 71%, specificity 58.06%, positive predictive value 57.61%, and negative predictive value 72%.
