Article Abstract

Purpose: Contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) is one of the common serious complications of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This study aimed to assess the significance of noncontrast strategy in the setting of ACS.

Methods: CI-AKI was defined as an increase in serum creatinine of ?0.5 mg/dL or ?1.25 times from the baseline. One-year worsening renal function (WRF) was defined as an increase of ?0.3mg/dL in serum creatinine from the baseline after PCI.

Results: Of 250 ACS patients, 81 were treated with noncontrast PCI. The average doses of contrast medium in the noncontrast and conventional groups were 17 (9?22) ml and 150 (120?200) ml, respectively. CI-AKI was observed in 4 patients (5%) in the noncontrast group and 29 patients (17%) in the conventional group. Noncontrast PCI was associated with a lower incidence of CI-AKI (adjusted odds ratio, 0.26;95% confidence interval [CI], 0.08?0.82). The bootstrap method and inverse probability weighting led to similar results. CI-AKI was associated with a higher incidence of 1-year WRF (adjusted hazard ratio, 2.30;95% CI, 1.12?4.69), while noncontrast PCI was not.

Conclusions: Noncontrast PCI was associated with the lower incidence of CI-AKI in ACS patients. J. Med. Invest. 69 : 57-64, February, 2022.

Rationale And Objectives: This study aims to determine the long-term prognostic value of coronary hyper-intensity plaques and left ventricular (LV) myocardial strain for major adverse cardiac events (MACEs).

Materials And Methods: The study prospectively recruited 71 patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). All patients underwent CMR before PCI to determine the plaque-to-myocardium signal intensity ratio and LV strains.

Background: Left ventricular thrombus (LVT) is a significant complication in STEMI. Previous studies were conducted prior to modern timely percutaneous reperfusion networks. Current expert opinion suggests incidence in the current era has decreased.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop and validate a cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)-based radiomics nomogram model for predicting microvascular obstruction (MVO) following reperfusion in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Methods: In total, 167 consecutive STEMI patients were retrospectively enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts with a ratio of 7:3.

Considering the context of percutaneous coronary artery angiography (PCI), stroke is a rare but severe complication and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. A computed tomography (CT) scan of the brain is an indispensable imaging modality to diagnose ischemic stroke changes following PCI. A 75-year-old female who presented with sudden onset chest pain was diagnosed with anterior-wall myocardial infarction which required primary PCI.

Background: This study aimed to compare the coronary plaque characterization by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) (NIRS-IVUS), and to determine whether pre-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) evaluation using CMR identifies high-intensity plaques (HIPs) at risk of peri-procedural myocardial infarction (pMI). Although there is little evidence in comparison with NIRS-IVUS findings, which have recently been shown to identify vulnerable plaques, we inferred that CMR-derived HIPs would be associated with vulnerable plaque features identified on NIRS-IVUS.

Methods: 52 patients with stable coronary artery disease who underwent CMR with non-contrast T1-weighted imaging and PCI using NIRS-IVUS were studied.
