Article Abstract

Introduction: Stable angina develops during physical activity or stress, and it is typically an aspect of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) that can lead to arrhythmia, heart failure and even sudden death. ANRIL, an Antisense Noncoding RNA gene in the INK4 Locus, is associated with multiple disorders including CHD; however, expressional levels of ANRIL in between patients with stable angina and myocardial infarction, one of the acute coronary syndrome, have not been clarified yet.

Methods: The authors enrolled 62 patients with myocardial infarction and 59 with stable angina before primary percutaneous coronary intervention, as well as 48 healthy volunteers. Their peripheral blood was collected for analysis of ANRIL and cardiac troponin I, a traditional diagnostic index of CHD by real-time PCR.

Results: The data showed that ANRIL is a better diagnostic indicator than cardiac troponin I in patients with stable angina and that the levels of ANRIL are higher in patients with stable angina than those with the myocardial infarction.

Discussion: The levels of ANRIL in peripheral plasma could be used as a good biomarker for stable angina.

The cardiovascular continuum is the developmental process of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) leading to heart failure (HF) and sudden cardiac death. Beta-blockers (BBs) are at the forefront of managing conditions along this continuum, ranging from cardiovascular (CV) risk factors to heart failure. In particular, bisoprolol proved to be a highly cardio-selective BB with a favourable pharmacokinetic profile, demonstrating long-term safety, good tolerability, and proven efficacy in reducing cardiac events, including arrhythmias and mortality in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Background: Invasive coronary physiology including fractional flow reserve (FFR), instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR), and coronary flow reserve (CFR) are guideline-endorsed tools to guide the management of coronary artery disease (CAD). Complex factors impact and confound these assessments, and discordance between modalities complicates clinical management. iEquate is a prospective observational trial that combines multi-modality coronary physiology and optical coherence tomography (OCT) to identify the determinants of pressure-wire derived myocardial ischemia and iFR-FFR discordance.

Growing evidence indicates that coronary plaque instability is an independent risk factor for adverse coronary events, yet current optical coherence tomography (OCT) assessment of high-risk plaque characteristics (HRPC) relies largely on qualitative interpretation. The index of plaque attenuation (IPA) is a quantitative OCT-based metric that may provide a more objective evaluation. This retrospective observational diagnostic accuracy study assessed the performance of OCT-derived IPA for HRPC detection in patients with acute coronary syndrome or stable angina, using expert consensus qualitative OCT analysis as the reference standard.

Purpose Of Review: Symptom relief is now recognized as the primary remit of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The relationship between the nature of angina symptoms and the likelihood of successful symptom relief from PCI had not been systematically studied until recently.

Recent Findings: The ORBITA-2 symptom-stratified analysis found that while the severity and nature of symptoms were poorly associated with the severity of coronary disease, the nature of the symptoms powerfully predicted the efficacy of PCI in relieving angina.

Background: Chinese herbal medicines (CHMs) are used for type 2 diabetes mellitus combined with stable angina pectoris (T2DM-SAP), but their long-term effects lack real-world evidence.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of additional CHMs on angina readmission rates compared to standard treatment alone in patients with T2DM-SAP.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 704 patients with T2DM-SAP.
