Article Synopsis
  • Long-term outcomes of cardiovascular diseases in Eastern Europe, specifically in a Romanian PCI registry, were assessed, focusing on ethnic minorities like Hungarians and Roma.
  • The study analyzed data from 6,867 patients over a median follow-up of 3.60 years, revealing a total of 1,064 cardiovascular-related deaths and 1,374 all-cause deaths, with ethnic minorities experiencing higher mortality rates.
  • Findings indicated significantly worse long-term survival rates for Hungarian and Roma patients compared to the Romanian population, highlighting disparities in health outcomes among these groups.

Out-of-hospital mortality in coronary artery disease (CAD) is particularly high and established adverse event prediction tools are yet to be available. Our study aimed to investigate whether precision phenotyping can be performed using routine laboratory parameters for the prediction of out-of-hospital survival in a CAD population treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). All patients treated by PCI and discharged alive in a tertiary center between January 2016 - December 2022 that have been included prospectively in the local registry were analyzed.

Article Synopsis
  • A study analyzed 1,210 STEMI patients treated at a tertiary center from 2016 to 2022, revealing that the P2Y12 inhibitor ticagrelor significantly lowered all-cause and cardiovascular mortality, while GPI eptifibatide reduced cardiovascular mortality.
  • Manual thrombus aspiration showed no significant impact on long-term survival, reinforcing the recommendation to avoid its routine use in STEMI treatment.

Background And Aims: Machine learning (ML) models have been proposed as a prognostic clinical tool and superiority over clinical risk scores is yet to be established. Our aim was to analyse the performance of predicting 3-year all-cause- and cardiovascular cause mortality using ML techniques and compare it with clinical scores in a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) population.

Methods: An all-comers patient population treated by PCI in a tertiary cardiovascular centre that have been included prospectively in the local registry between January 2016-December 2017 was analysed.
