Background: Association of history of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) with clinical outcomes in patients presenting with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is unclear from current data.
Methods: Using Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) data from 2003 to 2014, adult patients hospitalized with principal diagnosis of STEMI were extracted. The cohort was divided into patients with a history of CABG and those without a history of CABG. The primary outcome measure was in-hospital mortality (IHM).
Results: 2,710,375 STEMI patients were included in final analysis of which 110,066 had history of CABG. Patients with history of CABG had higher unadjusted (12.2% vs. 8.8%, < 0.001) and adjusted (odds ratio [OR]1.16; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.14 to1.19, < 0.001) IHM compared to those without previous CABG. Compared to a trend of decreasing IHM in STEMI patients without previous CABG, a trend of increasing IHM was observed over the study period in those with a history of previous CABG. Although patients with previous CABG when treated with primary PCI (PPCI) had a higher unadjusted IHM compared to those without previous CABG, (4.8% vs 4.3%, < 0.001), after adjusting for comorbidities and in-hospital complications no significant increase in IHM was observed in patients with previous CABG treated with PPCI.
Conclusion: STEMI patients with previous CABG have a significantly higher IHM compared to those without previous CABG. PPCI improves IHM with no independent mortality disadvantage attributable to previous CABG.

Importance: The Aspirin and Hemocompatibility Events With a Left Ventricular Assist Device in Advanced Heart Failure (ARIES-HM3) study demonstrated that aspirin may be safely eliminated from the antithrombotic regimen after HeartMate 3 (HM3 [Abbott Cardiovascular]) left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. This prespecified analysis explored whether conditions requiring aspirin (prior percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG], stroke, or peripheral vascular disease [PVD]) would influence outcomes differentially with aspirin avoidance.
Objective: To analyze aspirin avoidance on hemocompatibility-related adverse events (HRAEs) at 1 year after implant in patients with a history of CABG, PCI, stroke, or PVD.

Background/aim: Hydrogen therapy has demonstrated potential as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory intervention, particularly in the management of chronic diseases such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) and autoimmune conditions. This case report presents the possible therapeutic benefits of molecular hydrogen capsule treatment in enhancing renal function and alleviating chronic fatigue in an elderly female with coronary artery disease (CAD), type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) complicated by nephropathy, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of adjunctive hydrogen therapy in an elderly patient with multiple chronic comorbidities.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD), primarily caused by atherosclerosis, is a leading cause of death, presenting as angina or myocardial infarction. Advances in cardiac imaging, angiography, and procedures like percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery have improved early detection and management of this condition. This report presents the case of a man who experienced worsening exertional chest pain and discomfort while at rest.

Background: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery has been a widely accepted method for treating coronary artery disease. However, its postoperative complications can have a significant effect on long-term patient outcomes. A retrospective study was conducted to identify before and after surgery that contribute to postoperative stroke in patients undergoing CABG, and to develop predictive models and recommendations for single-factor thresholds.

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with the transient activation of a systemic inflammatory response. Fibronectin (FN), an endogenous inflammatory mediator, is a key component of the extracellular matrix. This study aimed to detect changes in cellular and plasma FN levels, as well as its potential fragmentation or FN-fibrin complex formation, in 40 patients undergoing CABG with CPB.
