Review of Acute Infarction Ramipril Efficacy (AIRE) Trial

Lancet 1993;342:821-28.Background The Survival After Ventricular Enlargement (SAVE) trial demonstrated that administration of the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) captopril, following MI complicated by LV dysfunction (EF ≤40%) but without clinical heart failure significantly improved morbidity and mortality over 3.5 years of follow-up. Yet many post-MI patients at the time had clinical heart failure and this represented a vulnerable population of patients with significantly increased morbidity and mortality compared to those without clinical heart failure. The Acute Infarction Ramipril Efficacy (AIRE) trial sought to test the hypothesis that administration of Ramipril to patients with AMI complicated by acute congestive heart failure would reduce morbidity and mortality vs a placebo. Cardiology Trial's Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support our work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Patients Eligible patients were 18 years of age or older with a definite AMI occurring 2 to 9 days prior to randomization with clinical evidence of congestive heart failure at any time after the index MI. While clinical evidence of heart failure was mandatory for study entry, it could be transient and not necessarily present at the time of randomization. Patients were excluded with NYHA IV heart failure (these patients would receive ACEi therapy regardless), heart failure of primary valvular or congenital etiology, or patients with any recognized contraindications to ACEi therapy were excluded.Baseline characteristics The average age of patients was 65 years and 74% were men. Approximately one quarter of patients had had a prior MI, 12% had diabetes, 30% had hypertension and smoking status was not listed. The ejection fraction of study participants was not systematically assessed as part of the study protocol. 62% had a Q wave MI and the predominant location was anterior. The mean time to randomization was 5 days. Approximately 60% of patients received thrombolysis. The average blood pressure and heart rate were not provided. At the time of randomization 22% of patients were receiving a beta blocker and 12% digoxin.Many more patients (52,019) were reviewed than ultimately enrolled (1,986). The main reasons for exclusion were no definitive MI (21,302) and no definite heart failure (16,989). The authors estimate that among eligible patients with a definitive MI and heart failure that approximately half were enrolled. Information on those enrolled versus not enrolled was not provided.Procedures Patients were initiated on Ramipril 2.5 mg twice daily or matching placebo for 2 days after which the dose was increased to 5 mg twice daily. If patients could not tolerate the 5 mg twice daily dose they were discharged on 2.5 mg twice daily. For patients who could not tolerate the 2.5 mg dose they were given 1.25 mg twice daily for 2 days with attempts to up-titrate to 2.5 mg and 5 mg at discharge. For patients that could not tolerate at least 2.5 mg twice daily at discharge they were NOT discharged on the 1.25 mg dose. These patients were withdrawn from study treatment but followed up at the prespecified visit intervals and were included in the intention-to-treat analysis.Outpatient visits were scheduled at 1 month and 3 months following discharge from the index hospitalization and every 3 months thereafter until study close. Monitoring of renal function and electrolytes was done at the discretion of study investigators based on their normal practice. During follow up patients could be started on any medication with exception of an ACEi.Endpoints The primary study endpoint was all-cause mortality. The secondary endpoint was time to first event including (death, progression to NYHA class 4 heart failure, reinfarction or stroke).The investigators estimated they would need a sample size of 2,000 patients to detect a 25% relative reduction in the risk of death with 80% power and 2-sided alpha of 5%. This was based on an estimated death rate of 20% at 15 months in the placebo group and 15% in the Ramipril group.Results 2,006 patients were recruited from 144 centers in 14 countries. However, 20 patients from 1 center were excluded from the final analysis due to inconsistencies in the data. According to investigators the exclusion of these patients did not meaningfully change the final results. The final analysis included 1,986 patients; 1004 in the Ramipril group and 982 in the placebo group.90% of study participants were discharged from the hospital on study drug. In the Ramipril group, 77% were on the 5 mg dose, 14% were on the 2.5 mg dose and 9% were on no therapy. In the placebo group, 86% were on the 5 mg dose, 7% on the 2.5 mg dose and 7% on no therapy.Patients were followed for an average of 15 months and only 1 was lost to follow-up. Compared to placebo, Ramipril significantly reduced all cause death by 27% (17% vs 23%; p = 0.002). Ramipril also significantly reduced the secondary composite endpoint of time to first validated event (including death, progression to severe heart failure, reinfarction or stroke) by 19% (28% vs 34%; p = 0.008). Differences in this composite endpoint were mainly driven by death and progression to severe heart failure.Examination of subgroups showed no evidence of treatment effect heterogeneity but again, similar to the SAVE trial, the size of the trial limits subgroup testing.Premature withdrawals from study drug, not including death, occurred in 352 patients in the Ramipril group compared to 318 in the placebo group. Intolerance to the drug was cited as a factor in 126 of the Ramipril withdrawals and 68 of the placebo withdrawals whereas progression to severe heart failure was cited in 58 Ramipril withdrawals and 92 placebo. Syncope was more common in Ramipril treated patients compared to placebo (2.4% vs 1.7%) and so was hypotension (4.2% vs 2.3%) but not renal failure (1.5% vs 1.2%).Conclusions In patients with AMI complicated by clinical congestive heart failure, Ramipril significantly reduced death over 1.3 years of follow-up with a number needed to treat of approximately 17 patients. Ramipril also significantly reduced a composite of events, which were mainly driven by death and progression to severe heart failure. Unlike the SAVE trial, which did not estimate a particular sample size for hypothesis testing, AIRE was specifically designed to test whether Ramipril would reduce death by 25% over 15 months and indeed, it did! Thus, results from AIRE not only support but add legitimacy to findings from SAVE.One perceived limitation of AIRE, particularly when viewed through a contemporary lens, is its lack of ejection fraction estimation. There should be no doubt that these were sick patients in whom, significant LV dysfunction would have been present in most. We base this claim on the observation that the death rate in AIRE at 1.3 years in the placebo group was nearly equal to SAVE at 3.5 years (23% vs 25%). This highlights that development of clinical heart failure (regardless of LV function) confers a worse prognosis than LV dysfunction without heart failure.In our opinion, the external validity of AIRE is high for a trial performed 30 years ago. The average start date for treatment was 5 days post MI complicated by clinical heart failure. This is longer than we would anticipate in contemporary practice by 2 or 3 days but not unreasonable, especially for post-MI patients with tenuous hemodynamics requiring intravenous diuretic therapy. Furthermore, the dose titration parameters and follow up schedule in AIRE can be approximated in clinical practice. Also, no obvious treatment effect heterogeneity was noted across important subgroups (e.g., age > vs < 65 years) but these analyses are limited due to the overall sample size. Finally, no strict limits were placed on blood pressure and heart rate at study entry.Thank you for reading Cardiology Trial's Substack. This post is public so feel free to share it.

In this week's episode we review the important topic of troponin levels in children. What is an abnormal high sensitivity troponin level in children and do the levels vary based upon the assay? What are the differences between high sensitivity troponin I and T levels? Are there differences between boys and girls? Why would using the 97.5%ile upper reference limit result in a more reliable 'line in the sand' in comparison with the more traditional, high sensitivity troponin level cut off of 99th%ile. These are amongst the questions we review with this week's author, Dr. J. Bill McEvoy, Professor of Preventive Cardiology at University of Galway, Ireland. DOI: 10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.122.063281

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2023.03.27.534410v1?rss=1 Authors: Shi, S. X., Li, Y.-J., Wendt, T. S., Shi, K., Jin, W., Liu, Q., Gonzales, R. J. Abstract: Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1) is highly expressed in endothelial cells and receptor activation plays an important role in mediating endothelial function and health, thus showing promise as a pharmacologic target for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treatment. Here, we examined the effect of a selective S1PR1 ligand, RP101075, on infarct volume and neurological outcome in adult male mice subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO). Concomitantly, we examined S1PR1 expression profile in the ischemic mouse brain, as well as S1PR1 expression and impact of receptor activation on human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMEC) proliferation and survival following hypoxia plus glucose deprivation (HGD). We observed that RP101075 administration at onset of reperfusion reduced infarct volume and lessened neurological deficits in tMCAO mice and these responses were S1PR1 dependent. Additionally, we observed that tMCAO increased brain S1PR1 protein levels and flow cytometry revealed increases in S1PR1 levels are greatest in brain endothelial cells compared to other brain cell types (astrocyte, neuron, microglia). In cultured HBMECs, RP101075 increased cell proliferation and ozanimod, parent compound of RP1010175, increased live cell count during HGD; this response was S1PR1 dependent. In conclusion, S1PR1 activation improves neuroprotection/outcome post-stroke and preserves brain endothelial cell survival following ischemia-like injury. Copy rights belong to original authors.

CardioNerds (Amit and Dan) join Dr. Maria Pabon (cardiology fellow), Dr. Kevin Bersell (cardiology fellow), Dr. Saad Sultan Ghumman (interventional cardiology fellow), and Dr. Rhanderson Cardoso (cardiovascular imaging fellow) from Brigham and Women's Hospital. Together, they explore a complex case of STEMI that was further complicated by ventricular free wall rupture. Additionally, Dr. Ajar Kochar, Program Director for Interventional Cardiology at Brigham and Women's Hospital, provides an insightful "ECPR" segment, adding a unique perspective to the case. Audio editing by CardioNerds Academy Intern, student doctor Chelsea Amo Tweneboah. This is the case of a patient who presented with STEMI and was found to have a moderate pericardial effusion with echogenic material within the pericardial space concerning for thrombus. Urgent CTA/CT surgery was engaged due to concern for dissection, but no evidence of dissection, rupture or intramural hematoma was found. The patient underwent an urgent pericardiocentesis which yielded 350cc of hemorrhagic fluid, leading to an improvement in hemodynamic status. A coronary angiogram was performed which showed a 100% thrombotic occlusion of OM 1, the culprit lesion for the STEMI. Due to the possibility of a delayed STEMI and high suspicion for mechanical complication of MI, aspirin and IV cangrelor were chosen as the preferred antiplatelet strategy. However, cangrelor was held and cardiac surgery was consulted, as LV free wall rupture was suspected. The patient underwent urgent repair of the LV free wall rupture, with an uneventful post-op recovery and discharge on day 8 to cardiac rehab. CardioNerds is collaborating with Radcliffe Cardiology and US Cardiology Review journal (USC) for a ‘call for cases', with the intention to co-publish high impact cardiovascular case reports, subject to double-blind peer review.

Lindsey (University of Nebraska Medical Center) interviews lead author Nikolaos Frangogiannis (Albert Einstein College of Medicine) and expert Kristine DeLeon-Pennell (Medical University of South Carolina) about the new study by Hanna et al which compared results from their in-depth histopathological examination with visual inspection of cardiac rupture. Frangogiannis and co-authors found that identifying the rupture site had high specificity but low sensitivity, with a low rate of false positives. Conversely, identifying hemothorax had high sensitivity yet low specificity. Hanna et al. observed key sex differences in their non-reperfusion mouse model of MI. In addition, differences in macrophages and fibroblasts in mice of both sexes which died of cardiac rupture indicated that a perturbed balance of inflammatory mediators may be a factor in the pathogenesis of cardiac rupture. What is the key take-away? When evaluating the cause of death in infarcted mice, look for the rupture site. Listen now.   Anis Hanna, Arti V Shinde, and Nikolaos G.

CardioNerds (Amit Goyal & Daniel Ambinder) join Houston Methodist cardiology fellows (Isaac Tea, Stephanie Fuentes, Peter Rothstein) for a trip to Hermann Park! They discuss a challenging case of right ventricular (RV) infarction leading to acute RV failure treated with right ventricular assist device (RVAD) support. Dr. Mahwash Kassi provides the E-CPR and program director Dr. Stephen Little provides a message for applicants. Episode notes were developed by Johns Hopkins internal medicine resident Tommy Das with mentorship from University of Maryland cardiology fellow Karan Desai.  Jump to: Patient summary - Case media - Case teaching - References Episode graphic by Dr. Carine Hamo The CardioNerds Cardiology Case Reports series shines light on the hidden curriculum of medical storytelling. We learn together while discussing fascinating cases in this fun, engaging, and educational format. Each episode ends with an “Expert CardioNerd Perspectives & Review” (E-CPR) for a nuanced teaching from a content expert. We truly believe that hearing about a patient is the singular theme that unifies everyone at every level, from the student to the professor emeritus. We are teaming up with the ACC FIT Section to use the #CNCR episodes to showcase CV education across the country in the era of virtual recruitment. As part of the recruitment series, each episode features fellows from a given program discussing and teaching about an interesting case as well as sharing what makes their hearts flutter about their fellowship training. The case discussion is followed by both an E-CPR segment and a message from the program director.

A nuclear stress test showed a reversible perfusion defect in the RCA territory, and he was referred for PCI. Coronary angiogram showed severe stenosis of the proximal RCA and a DES was successfully deployed with TIMI 3 flow, though several large acute marginal branches were jailed.   The night following PCI, the patient developed bradycardia, hypotension, and tachypnea. Physical exam showed newly elevated JVP, lower extremity edema, and bibasilar crackles without a new cardiac murmur. ECG showed ST elevation in V1-V4, and bedside echocardiogram showed a severely dilated RV with decreased systolic function. With concern for acute RV failure, the patient was fluid resuscitated, started on dopamine for chronotropy, and was admitted to the CCU. A Swan-Ganz catheter was placed, showing a CVP 12, RV 41/15, PA 36/20 (25), PCWP 18, CI 1.6 (by Fick method). The calculated PAPi was 0.84.   The patient was transitioned to dobutamine to improve RV inotropy, epinephrine in the setting of hypotension, and inhaled nitric oxide in an attempt to decrease RV afterload. Despite these interventions, the patient had worsening shock, anuric renal failure requiring CVVH, and respiratory failure requiring intubation. A centrifugal RA to PA pump was placed (Protek Duo) for right-sided mechanical circulatory support, with improvement in RV hemodynamics and cardiogenic shock. Notably, a repeat angiogram was done, which showed a patent left coronary circulation as well as a right coronary artery without flow in the acute marginal branches. After 6 days of mechanical circulatory support, the patient was ultimately able to be weaned from vasoactive agents, and the Protek Duo was removed. He continued to have junctional bradycardia, and a permanent pacemaker was placed. After a nearly month-long admission, the patient was discharged to rehab; at 4 months follow-up,

Chipping away at the problems of cardiac stem cell therapy Though stem cells transplanted into heart attack patients can develop into cardiomyocytes and integrate with undamaged host tissue, preclinical studies and clinical trials have only shown limited improvements in cardiac function. Using a simplified, in vitro, "muscle on-a-chip" system, Aratyn-Schaus et al. reveal that mechanical forces aren't transmitted efficiently between weaker, stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes and stronger, more mature host cells. This biosights episode presents the paper by Aratyn-Schaus et al. from the February 15th, 2016, issue of The Journal of Cell Biology and includes an interview with one of the paper's co-first authors, Francesco Pasqualini (Harvard University, Cambridge, MA). Produced by Caitlin Sedwick and Ben Short. See the associated paper in JCB for details on the funding provided to support this original research.
