We examined all cases of invasive graft angiography performed in our cardiothoracic center 2016-2020 and analyzed the quality of the LIMA graft. Of 551 cases, 323 had undergone isolated coronary artery bypass grafting including a LIMA since 2001; of those, 59 (18%) appeared sub-optimal; 16 (5%) being totally occluded, 26 (8%) exhibiting a \"string sign\" (i.e., atretic or cord-like), 12 (4%) being focally stenosed, and 5 (1.5%) being patent but placed on a diseased portion of the left anterior descending artery or other vessel. The commonest cause of failure were poor-quality left anterior descending artery target and non-flow-limiting disease. This paper highlights the low rate, and likely modes, of failure of this valuable treatment in contemporary practice.","PeriodicalId":8264,"journal":{"name":"Angiology","volume":" ","pages":"33197251320143"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143439750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) is the main treatment strategy to restore myocardial perfusion. However, the no-reflow phenomenon (NRP) may block coronary flow. The present study focused on assessing and contrasting predictive parameters for NRP in ACS patients. Our research is a retrospective analysis. We assessed the parameters significantly associated with NRP using Cox regression and Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) Curve analysis. The study included 5122 patients who met the criteria. The average age of the patients was 63.9 + 13.2, and 74.4% were male. It was observed that NRP developed in 1.8% of all patients. Age, hemoglobin (Hb), white blood cell (WBC), glucose and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were determined to be independent predictors of NRP. The power of these parameters to predict NRP was similar, and WBC was the most predictive (Area Under Curve (AUC): 0.605 95% CI: 0.539-0.671, P = .001). We believe that the use of these simple, practical, and routinely used hematological and biochemical parameters will help us predict the risk of developing NRP before pPCI. This information should improve management.","PeriodicalId":8264,"journal":{"name":"Angiology","volume":" ","pages":"33197251320141"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143432375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study aimed to describe the rate of systemic infections in patients with CLTI compared with peripheral artery obstructive disease (PAOD) patients without CLTI, both independently of endovascular treatment (EVT) and after EVT. Administrative data of the AOK Baden-Wuerttemberg (AOK BW) from patients with PAOD were analyzed considering bloodstream infection (BSI), 30-day readmission and prescribed antibiotics for ischemic ulcers. The risk of BSI increased 3.9-fold (95% CI: 3.4-4.4) in patients with PAOD Rutherford-Becker category (RBC) 5 and 6 (n = 11,741) compared with PAOD RBC 1-4 (n = 23,482; 6.81% vs 1.67%, P < .01). The risk of Staphylococcus aureus BSI increased 5.6-fold (95% CI: 4.1-7.7) comparing RBC 5 and 6 (1.2%) with RBC 1-4 (0.22%, P < .01). Outpatient antibiotic prescriptions were dominated by aminopenicillins with β-lactamase inhibitors, accounting for 34.9%. Clindamycin, cefuroxime, and fluoroquinolones represented 14.9%, 13.5%, and 12.6% of prescriptions, respectively. Infections were responsible for 7.7% of 30-day readmissions following EVT. Patients with CLTI are at risk of developing BSI, and specifically S. aureus BSI. Infection-related causes in 30-day readmissions following EVT are common. The high use of clindamycin and cefuroxime in outpatients is concerning.","PeriodicalId":8264,"journal":{"name":"Angiology","volume":" ","pages":"33197251319600"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143412995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the disease's extensive effects, little is known about the prognostic indicators that can be used. We aimed to assess the prognostic value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-to-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR) and platelet-to- lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in predicting mortality of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Demographic data, underlying diseases, laboratory parameters were evaluated. The study included 222 cases. The mortality rate was 57.65%. No significant differences in terms of sex, age, or underlying disease were observed between the two groups with and without mortality. Obesity, oxygen therapy, invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) rates and high SOFA (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment) scores were found to be significantly higher in the group with a mortal course. The mortality rate was significantly higher in patients with lung involvement over 50%, with a low lymphocyte count at ICU admission. In this patient group, NLR was found to be higher, and LCR was found to be lower (P = .001). Although there was no significant difference in PLR between the two groups in univariate analysis, multivariate analysis revealed that PLR was independently associated with mortality. High NLR and low LCR values at ICU admission might serve as early warning signs for healthcare providers, allowing them to identify patients at higher risk of mortality.","PeriodicalId":8264,"journal":{"name":"Angiology","volume":" ","pages":"33197251318094"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143381485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among 128 patients who underwent CAS and VH-IVUS, 112 patients who underwent DWI within 72 h after CAS were included for analysis. VH-IVUS detected cross-sectional composition of plaques including necrotic core (NC), dense calcium (DC), fibrous (FI), and fibrofatty (FF) in each frame. Plaques with ≥3 consecutive thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) or calcified thin-cap fibroatheroma (CaTCFA) frames were defined as vulnerable. Logistic regression was applied to evaluate the association between plaque characteristics and sNIIL. A total of 56 patients (50%) had sNIIL. Larger NC in the maximum NC frame (odds ratio [OR] = 1.35; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03-1.75; P = .029) and defined vulnerable plaques (OR = 3.89; 95% CI: 1.68-9.01; P = .001) were associated with sNIIL.
