Copeptin, the 39-amino-acid C-terminal portion of provasopressin, has been shown to be an independent predictor for adverse events following STEMI (ST elevation myocardial infarction). We hypothesized that plasma copeptin was an independent predictor for adverse outcomes following acute NSTEMI (non-STEMI) and evaluated whether copeptin added prognostic information to the GRACE (Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events) score compared with NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide). Plasma copeptin and NT-proBNP were measured in 754 consecutive patients admitted to the hospital with chest pain and diagnosed as having NSTEMI in this prospective observational study. The end point was all-cause mortality at 6 months. Upper median levels of copeptin were strongly associated with all-cause mortality at 6 months. Copeptin was a significant predictor of time to mortality {HR (hazard ratio), 5.98 [95% CI (confidence interval, 3.75–9.53]; P<0.0005} in univariate analysis and remained a significant predictor in multivariate analysis [HR, 3.03 (05% CI, 1.32–6.98); P=0.009]. There were no significant differences between the area under ROC (receiver operating characteristic) curves of copeptin, NT-proBNP and the GRACE score. Copeptin improved accuracy of risk classification when used in combination with the GRACE score as determined by net reclassification improvement, whereas NT-proBNP did not. The relative utility of the GRACE score was increased more by copeptin than by NT-proBNP over a wide range of risks. Plasma copeptin is elevated after NSTEMI, and higher levels are associated with worse outcomes. Copeptin used in conjunction with the GRACE score improves risk stratification enabling more accurate identification of high-risk individuals.

Background: Identifying patients at a high risk of mortality post percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is of vital clinical importance. We investigated the utility of machine learning algorithms to predict short and intermediate-term risk of all-cause mortality in patients undergoing PCI. Methods: Patient-level demographics, clinical, electrocardiographic ,echocardiographic and angiographic data from January 2006 to December 2017 were extracted from the Mayo Clinic CathPCI registry and clinical records. For patients with multiple PCI events, data collected at the time of the index PCI was used for analysis. Patients who underwent bailout coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) prior to discharge were excluded. 306 variables were incorporated into random forest machine learning model (RF) to predict all-cause mortality at 6 months and 1 year after PCI. Ten-fold cross-validation repeated five times was used to optimize the hyperparameters and estimate its external performance. The National Cardiovascular Data Registry (NCDR) based logistic regression model was used for comparison. The area under receiver operator characteristic curves (AUC) was calculated to assess the ability of the models to predict all-cause mortality. Results: A total of 17356 unique patients were included for the final analysis after excluding 165 patients who underwent CABG surgery during the index hospitalization. The mean age was 66.9 ± 12.5 years;71% were male. Indications for PCI were ST-elevation myocardial infarction (9.4%), non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (12.9%), unstable angina (17.7%), and stable angina (52.8%) in the cohort. In-hospital, 6-month & 1 year mortality rates were 1.9%,4.2% & 5.8% respectively. The RF model was superior to the NCDR model in predicting inhospital, 6-month, 1 year mortality (p<0.0001) ( Figure 1 ). Conclusion: Machine learning is superior to NCDR model in predicting short and intermediate risk of all-cause mortality post PCI.

Abstract Background Early risk stratification was strongly recommended to guide therapeutic management and to improve outcome for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. Anaemia and high haemoglobin levels are common in STEMI patients, but the effect of the haemoglobin level on the prognosis of STEMI patients remains in dispute. The China Acute Myocardial Infarction registry-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (CAMI-STEMI) score can predict in-hospital mortality among Chinese STEMI patients, with similar performance to the well-established Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) score, while relying solely on simple and practical variables. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the haemoglobin level combined with the CAMI-STEMI score in STEMI patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We included 360 STEMI patients who underwent PCI. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the first haemoglobin value after PCI, group 1 (male: Hb<120 g/L, female: Hb<110 g/L; 42 cases), group 2 (male: 120 g/L ≤ Hb<160 g/L, female: 110 g/L≤Hb<150 g/L; 278 cases), and group 3 (male: Hb ≥160 g/L, female: Hb ≥150 g/L; 40 cases). Clinical characteristics, and the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE) during the follow-up period were recorded. Results The incidence of MACCE in the 3 groups increased with a decrease in the haemoglobin level. Multivariate regression analysis showed that the CAMI-STEMI score was an independent predictor of MACCE incidence at 30 days after PCI and that anaemia was an independent predictor of MACCE incidence at 6 months and 1 year after PCI. A high haemoglobin level was an independent predictor of MACCE incidence at 1 year after PCI. The area under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of the haemoglobin level, CAMI-STEMI score and haemoglobin level combined with CAMI-STEMI score predicting the occurrence of MACCE in STEMI patients within 30 days after PCI were 0.604, 0.614, and 0.639, respectively. Figure 1. MACCE-free survival curve Conclusion The CAMI-STEMI score was an independent predictor of MACCE incidence at 30 days after PCI. The haemoglobin level combined with the CAMI-STEMI score improved the predictive value of MACCE in STEMI patients within 30 days after PCI.

Abstract Objective Assess the incidence and compare characteristics and outcome of unstable angina (UA) and Non-ST-Elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) Design Two independent prospective multicenter diagnostic studies (Advantageous Predictors of Acute Coronary Syndromes Evaluation (APACE) and High-Sensitivity Troponin in the Evaluation of Patients With Acute Coronary Syndrome (High-STEACS)) enrolling patients with acute chest discomfort presenting to the emergency department. Central adjudication of the final diagnosis was done by two independent cardiologists using all clinical information including serial measurements of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn). All-cause death and future non-fatal MI were assessed at 30-days and 1-year. Results 8992 patients were enrolled at 11 centres. UA was adjudicated in 366/4122 (8.9%) and 137/4870 (2.8%) patients in APACE and High-STEACS, respectively, and NSTEMI in 622 (15.1%) and 651 (13.4%). Coronary artery disease was pre-existing in 73% and 76% of patients with unstable angina. At 30-days, all-cause mortality in UA was substantially lower as compared to NSTEMI (0.5% versus 3.7%, p=0.002 in APACE, 0.7% versus 7.4%, p=0.004 in High-STEACS). Similarly, at 1-year in UA all-cause mortality was 3.3% [95% CI 1.2–5.3] vs 10.4% [7.9–12.9] in APACE, and 5.1% [0.7–9.5] vs 22.9% [19.3–26.4] in High-STEACS, and similar to non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP). In contrast, future non-fatal MI in APACE was comparable in UA and NSTEMI (11.2%, [7.8–14.6] and 7.9%, [5.7–10.2]), and higher than in NCCP (0.6%, [0.2–1.0]). 1-year survival free from future AMI Conclusions The incidence and the mortality of UA is substantially lower than that of NSTEMI, while the rate of future non-fatal MI is similar.
