Huoxue Huayu therapy (HXHY) has been widely used to treat cardiovascular diseases in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) such as hypertension and coronary heart disease (CHD). The present study describes a meta-analysis of a series of prospective randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials conducted to evaluate the effect of HXHY on patients with CHD after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), the Chinese Biomedical Literature database, and the Wanfang database were searched up until June 2018. A series of randomized controlled clinical trials were included and the subjects were patients with CHD who had undergone PCI. The experimental group was treated with HXHY therapy, and the control group was treated with placebo; meanwhile, all the patients accepted conventional Western medicine. Review Manager 5.3 software was used for the statistical analysis. Ten trials were included in the final study. The overall risk of bias assessment was low. HXHY had a greater beneficial effect on reducing the in-stent restenosis (ISR) rate (RR = 0.57, 95% confidence interval [CI] [0.40–0.80], P=0.001) and the degree of restenosis (MD = −8.89, 95% CI [−10.62 to −7.17], P<0.00001) compared with Placebo. Moreover, HXHY was determined to be more effective in improving Seattle Angina Questionnaires (SAQ) and the revascularization rate (RR = 0.54, 95% CI [0.32–0.90], P=0.02) compared with Placebo, whereas the rate of death and MI of patients treated with HXHY were no different from those treated with the placebo (P>0.05). Therefore, HXHY is an effective and safe therapy for CHD patients after PCI.

The Mehran risk score (MRS) was used to classify patients with coronary heart disease and evaluate the preventive effect of alprostadil on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention. The patients (n = 1146) were randomized into an alprostadil and control group and then divided into 3 groups on the basis of the MRS: low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups. The primary end point was the occurrence of CIN (alprostadil + hydration vs simple hydration treatment); secondary end points included serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine clearance rate, cystatin C, interleukin-6, C-reactive protein, proteinuria, and differences in the incidence of major adverse events. In the low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-risk groups, the incidence of CIN in the control and alprostadil group was 2.9 versus 2.6% ( P = .832), 11.4 versus 4.9% ( P = .030), 19.1 versus 7.7% ( P = .041), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that alprostadil treatment was a favorable protective factor for moderate-risk and high-risk CIN patients (OR = 0.343, 95% CI: 0.124-0.951, P = .040). Alprostadil can be used as a preventive treatment for moderate- and high-risk CIN patients classified by the MRS. The reduction of CIN by alprostadil may be related to an anti-inflammatory effect.

Objective: Antiplatelet therapy is recommended in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) who had the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) procedure to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). There has been a lack of population-based studies that showed the superior effectiveness of ticagrelor over clopidogrel and similar studies have not been conducted in Indonesia yet. The aim of the study was to investigate the effectiveness of ticagrelor compared to clopidogrel in reducing the risk of MACE in patients with CHD after PCI.Methods: A retrospective cohort study with 1-year follow-up was conducted. 361 patients consisted of 111 patients with ticagrelor exposure and 250 patients with clopidogrel exposure. The primary outcome was MACE, defined as a composite of repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction, or all-cause death. The association between antiplatelet exposure and the MACE was analyzed with Cox proportional hazard regression, adjusted for sex, age, comorbid, PCI procedures and concomitant therapy.Results: MACE occurred in 22.7% of the subjects. Clopidogrel had a significantly higher risk of MACE compared with ticagrelor (28.8%, vs 9.0%, hazard ratio (HR): 1.96 (95% CI 1.01 to 3.81, p=0.047). There were no significant differences in risk of repeat revascularization (20.40% vs 5.40%, HR: 2.32, 95% CI 0.99 to 5.42, p = 0.05), myocardial infarction (11.60% vs 3.60%, HR: 2.08, 95% CI, 0.73 to 5.93, p = 0.17), and death (1.60% vs 1.80%, HR: 0.77, 95% CI, 0.14 to 4.25, p = 0.77).Conclusion: Clopidogrel had a higher risk of MACE compared to clopidogrel in patients with CHD after PCI, but there were no significant differences in the risk of repeat revascularization, myocardial infarction, and all-cause death.
