Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P<0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P>0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of electrocardiogram repolarization related parameters combined with serum brain natriuretic peptide(BNP)and 25 hydroxyvitamin D3[25-(OH)-D3]for malignant arrhythmia(MA)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods:This study was a prospective single-center study,120 patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent PCI in our hospital from June 2022 to June 2024 were selected,they were divided into combined group(n=25)and non combined group(n=95)based on whether MA occurred within 72 h after PCI.All patients underwent routine electrocardiogram examination,the mean R wave to R wave(RR)interval,QRS start to T end(QT)interval,T wave time,corrected QT(QTc)interval,T wave peak to T wave end(Tp-e)interval,T wave amplitude,and other electrocardiogram repolarization related parameters between two groups were measuredand compared.The serum BNP and 25-(OH)-D3 levels between two groups were detected and compared.Influencing factors were analyzed by single and multiple logistic regression analysis.Predict value was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results:The mean QT interval and QTc interval in the combined group were significantly lower than those in the non combined group(P<0.05).The serum BNP levels in the combined group was significantly higher than that in the non combined group,and the serum 25-(OH)-D3 level was significantly lower than that in the non combined group(both P<0.05).Univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in terms of age,number of vascular lesions,cardiac troponin I(cTnI),and creatine kinase MB(CK-MB)(P<0.05).Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that serum CK-MB and BNP were independent risk factors for MA after PCI in patients with acute myocardial infarction,while mean QT interval,mean QTc interval,and elevated 25-(OH)-D3 were independent protective factors(P<0.05).Draw ROC curves,and the results show that the mean QT interval,mean QTc interval,serum BNP,and 25-(OH)-D3 levels alone predict the area under curve(AUC)for postoperative MA after PCI was 0.762(0.706-0.817),0.822(0.772-0.871),0.809(0.757-0.862),and 0.709(0.642-0.775),respectively,the AUC for combined prediction was 0.882(0.843-0.920).Conclusion:Electrocardiogram repolarization related parameters such as mean QT interval and QTc interval for MA after PCI in patients with acute myocardial infarction were lower,serum BNP is increased,and 25-(OH)-D3 is decreased,the combined detection of these indicators has high predictive value for postoperative MA after PCI.
