Risk factors and their associations with in-hospital events in older patients with ACS are not fully understood, because older patients with ACS are often excluded from randomized controlled studies.\u0000\u0000Methods: We enrolled 962 patients with ACS above 75 years of age treated at our center between January 2012 and December 2016. The incidence and risk factors for in-hospital bleeding events, as well as their associations with in-hospital adverse events were evaluated.\u0000\u0000Results: Bleeding complications were observed in 38 patients (4.1%). The most common bleeding site was the gastrointestinal tract (52.6%). Anemia (P=0.007), renal insufficiency (P=0.019), use of positive inotropic medicines (P=0.006) and elevated leukocyte count (P=0.046) were independent predictors of in-hospital bleeding after adjustment for age, sex, atrial fibrillation history and hypertension history. In-hospital mortality (28.9% vs. 2.4%, P<0.001), stroke (5.3% vs. 0.5%, P<0.001) and the prevalence of heart failure (39.5% vs. 16.3%, P<0.001) were significantly higher in patients with than without bleeding.\u0000\u0000Conclusions: The incidence of in-hospital bleeding was 4.1% in patients with ACS above 75 years of age in this cohort. Independent risk factors for in-hospital bleeding events included anemia, renal insufficiency and elevated leucocyte count.

A growing body of research highlights the value of using fractional flow reserve, FFR and other pressure-based indicators for functional assessment of stable coronary stenoses. Invasive functional coronary assessment techniques have evolved from intracoronary wire-based to wire-free approaches as a result of technological advancements. In addition, several software programs on the market have been thoroughly investigated and validated against invasive FFR, and have shown good accuracy and correlation. However, use of FFR remains modest. Hence, this review provides an overview of angiography-based FFR solutions and compares their technologies. Additionally, a systematic scoping review was performed to understand the research landscape in wire-free coronary physiology assessment, to complement the narratives of existing FFR trials on wire-free FFR. Furthermore, future developments and strategies that could expand the use of wire-free computed coronary functional assessment in the Asia Pacific region are discussed.","PeriodicalId":41559,"journal":{"name":"Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43523027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of genome-wide N6-methyladenosine (m6A)-SNPs on AF.\u0000\u0000Method: m6A-SNPs were identified by analysis of raw data from published AF GWAS datasets and the list of m6A-SNPs from the m6AVar database. Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis was conducted to evaluate the effects of m6A-SNPs on gene expression. The expression of linked genes was validated in three independent AF-associated gene expression datasets (GSE14975, GSE108660 and GSE2240).\u0000\u0000Results: A total of 1429 (6.2%) unique m6A-SNPs that were significantly associated with AF were identified. Seventeen m6A-SNPs in 14 genes reached genome-wide significance. Eight m6A-SNPs demonstrated eQTL signals. Four m6A-SNPs (rs383692, rs3211105, rs1061259 and rs1152582) exhibited strong cis-eQTL signals associated with the gene expression levels of SMIM8, JMJD1C and SYNE2. SYNE2 and SMIM8 had differential gene expression levels between the AF and sinus rhythm groups. In addition, SYNE2 expression was uniformly downregulated in AF samples compared with normal control samples in the three datasets.\u0000\u0000Conclusions: Our results provide the first demonstration that m6A-SNPs are strongly associated with AF, and extend understanding of m6A modification as a potential biological pathway underlying AF.","PeriodicalId":41559,"journal":{"name":"Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41819432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study was aimed at investigating the role of stimulator of interferon genes (STING) in I/R injury in diabetic mice and further exploring the underlying mechanisms.\u0000\u0000Methods: Type 2 diabetic mice were subjected to I/R or sham operation to investigate the role of STING. STING knockout mice were subjected to 30 minutes of ischemia followed by reperfusion for 24 hours. Finally, myocardial injury, cardiac function, and inflammation levels were assessed.\u0000\u0000Results: STING pathway activation was observed in diabetic I/R hearts, as evidenced by increased p-TBK and p-IRF3 expression. STING knockout significantly decreased the ischemic area and improved cardiac function after I/R in diabetic mice. STING knockout also elicited cardio-protective effects by decreasing serum cardiac troponin T and lactate dehydrogenase levels, thus diminishing the inflammatory response in the heart after I/R in diabetic mice. In vitro, STING inhibition decreased the expression of hypoxia-re-oxygenation-induced inflammatory cytokines.\u0000\u0000Conclusions: Targeting STING inhibits inflammation and prevents I/R injury in diabetic mice.
