    Abstract Aim: To evaluate outcomes related to antiplatelet therapy in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) admitted to the San Gerardo Hospital in Monza, an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) reference center in the Monza-Brianza area.
    Methods: This retrospective study enrolled patients with STEMI hospitalized between 2013 and 2017.
    Results: This study included 653 patients (mean age: 67.5 years, 71% male). Across the study period, ticagrelor use showed consistent increases, from 22% of patients during 2013 to 85% in 2017. Cardiac arrest prehospitalization occurred in 100 patients (15.3%), either at home (n = 85, 13.0%) or during transfer (n = 15, 2.3%); 46 patients underwent ECMO for refractory cardiac arrest. Rates of 90-day survival (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.4, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.3-4.4,
    Conclusions: Changes in the treatment of high-risk patients with STEMI over time are in line with changes in treatment guidelines. In these patients, ticagrelor is associated with significantly improved 90-day mortality compared with clopidogrel.

    Abstract Background: Patients surviving a myocardial infarction (MI) are at a heightened risk for recurrent ischemic events that can be reduced with the long-term addition of a second antithrombotic drug to aspirin. However, data about real prescription of this therapy are lacking and sometimes controversial.
    Methods: We aimed to describe the incidence and the determinants of a dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) prolongation beyond 12 months in a cohort of consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with prior MI undergoing PCI and features of high ischemic risk intended as age more than 65 years, second MI, type 2 diabetes mellitus, multivessel coronary artery disease (MVCAD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). We analysed patients enrolled in the prospective 'Post-PCI' registry that included patients treated with PCI for stable coronary artery disease (CAD) or acute coronary syndromes. At 12 months' follow-up, we collected data about DAPT prolongation in patients with prior MI and at least one of the previous features of high risk who did not experience ischemic and bleeding events during the follow-up.
    Results: Among 1113 patients included in the registry, 778 (72%) presented the inclusion criteria for the present study: 434 (66%) were more than 65 years old, 245 (37%) had a second MI, 189 (29%) diabetes mellitus, 480 (73%) MVCAD and 216 (33%) CKD. Despite a DAPT being prescribed for 1 year in 86% of the patients, it was prolonged for over 12 months in 105 (16%) of them. At multivariable analysis, only second MI and MVCAD were independent predictors of DAPT prolongation in a model including age more than 65 years, diabetes mellitus, CKD and PCI on left main/left anterior descending coronary artery. We found no significant difference in DAPT prolongation according to a DAPT-score value at least 2 or based on the physician who actually performed the follow-up (clinical cardiologist, interventional cardiologist or other).
    Conclusion: In patients with prior MI and features of high ischemic risk undergoing PCI, the rate of DAPT prolongation beyond 12 months was low; recurrent MI and MVCAD appeared as its main determinants.

    Abstract Background: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation is increasingly recognised as a rescue therapy for refractory cardiac arrest, nevertheless data are scanty about its effects on neurologic and cardiac outcome. The aim of this study is to compare clinical outcome in patients with cardiac arrest of ischaemic origin (i.e. critical coronary plaque during angiography) and return of spontaneous circulation during conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation vs refractory cardiac arrest patients needing extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Moreover, we tried to identify predictors of survival after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
    Methods: We enrolled 148 patients with ischaemic cardiac arrest admitted to our hospital from 2011-2015. We compared clinical characteristics, cardiac arrest features, neurological and echocardiographic data obtained after return of spontaneous circulation (within 24 h, 15 days and six months).
    Results: Patients in the extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation group ( n=63, 43%) were younger (59±9 vs 63±8 year-old, p=0.02) with lower incidence of atherosclerosis risk factors than those with conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation. In the extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation group, left ventricular ejection fraction was lower than conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation at early echocardiography (19±16% vs 37±11 p<0.01). Survivors in both groups showed similar left ventricular ejection fraction 15 days and 4-6 months after cardiac arrest (46±8% vs 49±10, 47±11% vs 45±13%, p not significant for both), despite a major extent and duration of cardiac ischaemia in extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation patients. At multivariate analysis, the total cardiac arrest time was the only independent predictor of survival.
    Conclusions: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation patients are younger and have less comorbidities than conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation, but they have worse survival and lower early left ventricular ejection fraction. Survivors after extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation have a neurological outcome and recovery of heart function comparable to subjects with return of spontaneous circulation. Total cardiac arrest time is the only predictor of survival after cardiopulmonary resuscitation in both groups.

    Abstract Objective: To assess whether granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment induces a sustained benefit on adverse remodelling in patients with large anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction after successful reperfusion.
    Methods: The STEM-AMI Trial was a prospective, placebo-controlled, multicentre study. Sixty consecutive patients with a first anterior STEMI, who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention 2-12 h after symptom onset, with LV ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤45% measured by echocardiography within 12 h after successful revascularisation (TIMI flow score ≥2), were randomised 1:1 to G-CSF (5 µg/Kg body weight b.i.d.) or placebo. Clinical events and Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Event (MACCE) were monitored, and LVEF, LV end-diastolic (LVEDV) and end-systolic (LVESV) volumes, and infarct size were evaluated by MRI at the final 3-year follow-up.
    Results: Fifty-four patients completed the study, of whom 35 with MRI. No significant differences were found in mortality and MACCE between G-CSF and placebo-treated groups. The 3-year infarct size was not different between groups, whereas LVEDV was significantly lower in G-CSF (n=20) than in placebo (n=15) patients (170.1±8.1 vs 197.2±8.9 mL, respectively; p=0.033 at analysis of covariance). A significant inverse correlation was detected in G-CSF patients between the number of circulating CD34 cells at 30 days after reperfusion and the 3-year absolute and indexed LVEDV (ρ=-0.71, 95% CI -0.90 to -0.30, and ρ=-0.62, -0.86 to -0.14, respectively), or their change over time (r=-0.59, -0.85 to -0.11, and r=-0.55, -0.83 to -0.06, respectively).
    Conclusions: G-CSF therapy may be beneficial in attenuating ventricular remodelling subsequent to a large anterior STEMI in the long term. No differences have been detected in clinical outcome.

    Abstract Background: In patients with myocardial ischemia and coronary atherosclerosis, arterial stiffness and endothelial function are impaired. Whether these alterations can be favorably affected by successful coronary revascularization is debated.
    Methods: We studied 39 hospitalized patients 59.3 ± 3.2 years old (mean ± SEM). In 21 patients with angiographic evidence of significant coronary artery stenosis, revascularization procedures were performed (stenting n = 11 and bypass surgery n = 10). The remaining patients had no significant stenosis and thus served as controls. Prerevascularization measurements included carotido-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV), radial artery flow-mediated vasodilatation and a complete echocardiographic examination. The same measurements were performed 6 months later. Pharmacological treatment consisted of different cardiovascular drugs and remained substantially unchanged over the 6-month follow-up period.
    Results: With the exception of an increased left ventricular mass index (LVMI; 130 ± 5.3 versus 105.8 ± 7.2 g/m(2), P < 0.05) and a lower Em/Am (0.6 ± 0.01 and 0.8 ± 0.01 respectively, P < 0.05) observed in patients with coronary stenosis, all other hemodynamic, cardiac and vascular variables were similar in the two groups. Following the 6-month follow-up period, all variables remained substantially unchanged, with the exception, in revascularized patients, of a significant reduction in LVMI (-12%, P < 0.05) and an improvement in Tissue Doppler Imaging-measured diastolic function (Em/Am + 30%, P < 0.05). This was not associated, however, with any significant change in PWV and in flow-mediated vasodilatation.
    Conclusion: Cardiac revascularization has no effect on arterial function, assessed either as arterial stiffness or as flow-mediated vasodilatation. On the contrary, the improvement in coronary blood flow triggers local cardiac changes, namely, a reduction in LVMI and an improvement in diastolic function.

    Abstract Objectives: The present study was designed to determine the effects of long-term antialdosterone treatment on cardiac structural and functional alterations, portal and systemic hemodynamic as well as adrenergic dysfunction characterizing Child A cirrhotic patients with F1 esophageal varices.
    Methods: Twenty-two Child A postviral preascitic cirrhotic patients were randomly allocated to 200 mg/day K-Canrenoate (13 patients, age 59.6 +/- 2.2 yr, mean + SEM) or no-drug treatment (9 patients, age 61.8 +/- 2.3) for a 6-month-period. Measurements, which included hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG), left ventricular wall thickness, left ventricular end-diastolic volume and diastolic function (LVWT, LVEDV, and E/A ratio, echocardiography), and muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA, microneurography, peroneal nerve), were obtained at baseline and following 6 months of drug or no-drug treatment. Ten healthy age-matched subjects served as controls.
    Results: Cirrhotic patients were characterized by increased HVPG, LVWT, and MSNA values and by a depressed E/A ratio. K-Canrenoate treatment significantly reduced HVPG (from 15.3 +/- 1.0 to 13.8 +/- 0.8 mmHg, p < 0.05), LVWT (from 21.8 +/- 0.5 to 20.7 +/- 0.6 mm, p < 0.02), and LVEDV (from 99.2 +/- 7 to 86.4 +/- 6 ml, p < 0.01), leaving E/A ratio and MSNA almost unaltered. No significant change was observed in the untreated group of cirrhotic patients followed for 6 months without intervention.
    Conclusions: These data provide evidence that aldosterone blockade by long-term K-Canrenoate administration improves hepatic hemodynamics by lowering HVPG and ameliorates cardiac structure and function by favoring a reduction in LVWT and LVEDV as well. They also show, however, that this therapeutic intervention neither improves left ventricular diastolic dysfunction nor exerts sympathoinhibitory effects.

    Title translation Updated SICI-GISE position paper on institutional and operator requirements for transcatheter aortic valve implantation.
    Abstract Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has revolutionized the management of patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis and has become the standard of care for inoperable patients and the preferred therapy for those at increased surgical risk with peculiar clinical and anatomic features. Technology advances, growing experience and accumulating data prompted the update of the 2011 Italian Society of Interventional Cardiology (SICI-GISE) position paper on institutional and operator requirements to perform TAVI. The main objective of this document is to provide a guidance to assess the potential of institutions and operators to initiate and maintain an efficient TAVI program.
