METHODS: Patients 40 years of age or older who had been admitted with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) to one of the 94 hospitals participating in the Prevalence of Peripheral Arterial Disease in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome (PAMISCA) study were included. Patients were divided into two groups based on their resting heart rate (HR ≥ or < 70 bpm). Complications were recording during a follow-up period of 1 year. RESULTS: There were 1054 ACS patients analyzed (43.5% with ST segment elevation and 56.5% without elevation). Mean age was 66.6 ± 11.7 years, 70.6% were male and 29.4% of subjects were female. During follow-up, more patients in the HR ≥ 70 bpm group were hospitalized for heart failure and they also had a higher mortality rate. In the multivariate analysis, a heart rate of ≥ 70 bpm was independently related to overall mortality during the follow-up period (hazard ratio 2.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.26-4.97, P = 0.009). CONCLUSION: A resting heart rate ≥ 70 bpm in patients who survive an ACS is an indicator of a high risk of suffering cardiovascular events during follow-up. | Lorenzo Fácila Pedro Morillas Juan Quiles Federico Soria Alberto Cordero Pilar Mazón Manuel Anguita Cándido Martín-Luengo Jose Ramón Gonzalez-Juanatey Vicente Bertomeu | 2012 | World Journal of Cardiology2012,4,1: | 3 |
| 6 | Effectiveness and safety of first-generation protease inhibitors in clinical practice:Hepatitis C virus patients with advanced fibrosis显示文摘AIM:To evaluates the effectiveness and safety of the first generation,NS3/4A protease inhibitors(PIs) in clinical practice against chronic C virus,especially in patients with advanced fibrosis. METHODS:Prospective study and non-experimental analysis of a multicentre cohort of 38 Spanish hospitals that includes patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1,treatment-na?ve(TN) or treatment-experienced(TE),who underwent triple therapy with the first generation NS3/4A protease inhibitors,boceprevir(BOC) and telaprevir(TVR),in combination with pegylated interferon and ribavirin. The patients were treatment in routine practice settings. Data on the study population and on adverse clinical and virologic effects were compiled during the treatment period and during follow up.RESULTS:One thousand and fifty seven patients were included,405(38%) were treated with BOC and 652(62%) with TVR. Of this total,30%(n = 319) were TN and the remaining were TE:28%(n = 298) relapsers,12%(n = 123) partial responders(PR),25%(n = 260) null-responders(NR) and for 5%(n = 57) with prior response unknown. The rate of sustained virologic response(SVR) by intention-to-treatment(ITT) was greater in those treated with TVR(65%) than in those treated with BOC(52%)(P < 0.0001),whereas by modified intention-to-treatment(m ITT) no were found significant differences. By degree of fibrosis,56% of patients were F4 and the highest SVR rates were recorded in the non-F4 patients,both TN and TE. In the analysis by groups,the TN patients treated with TVR by ITT showed a higher SVR(P = 0.005). However,by m ITT there were no significant differences between BOC and TVR. In the multivariate analysis by m ITT,the significant SVR factors were relapsers,IL28 B CC and non-F4; the type of treatment(BOC or TVR) was not significant. The lowest SVR values were presented by the F4-NR patients,treated with BOC(46%) or with TVR(45%). 28% of the patients interrupted the treatment,mainly by non-viral response(51%):this outcome was more frequent in the TE than in the TN patients(57% vs 40%,P = 0.01). With respect to severe haematological disorders,neutropaenia was more likely to affect the patients treated with BOC(33% vs 20%,P ≤ 0.0001),and thrombocytopaenia and anaemia,the F4 patients(P = 0.000,P = 0.025,respectively). CONCLUSION:In a real clinical practice setting with a high proportion of patients with advanced fibrosis,effectiveness of first-generation PIs was high except for NR patients,with similar SVR rates being achieved by BOC and TVR. | Javier Salmeron Carmen Vinaixa Ruben Berenguer Juan Manuel Pascasio Juan Jose Sanchez Ruano Miguel angel Serra Ana Gila Moises Diago Manuel Romero-Gomez Jose Maria Navarro Milagros Testillano Conrado Fernandez Dolores Espinosa Isabel Carmona Jose Antonio Pons Francisco Jorquera Francisco Javier Rodriguez Ramon Perez Jose Luis Montero Rafael Granados Miguel Fernandez Ana Belen Martin Paloma Munoz de Rueda Rosa Quiles | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,30: | 0 |
