Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4139880-A4139880, November 12, 2024. Background:Patients with Coronary Artery Disease are at an increased risk of Atrial Fibrillation related mortality via various mechanisms like Ischemia, Atrial stretch and remodeling, but largely as side effects of treatments. Thus, AF in patients with CAD is a critical health concern among older adults (65+) in the United States. Our CDC analysis focuses on unraveling mortality trends among patients grappling with both conditions from 1999 to 2020.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted using national mortality data from the multiple causes of death files in the CDC WONDER database from 1999 to 2020, employing ICD codes I48 for AF and I25.1 for CAD. Age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) per 100,000 people were calculated for the total population, stratified by gender, race, urban/rural metro status, and census region. Annual Percent Change (APC) was calculated using the Joinpoint regression software.Results:A total of 564,952 AF-related deaths among older adults aged 65+ with CAD occurred in the U.S. between 1999 and 2020. Majorly occurred in medical facilities (36.5%). The overall AAMR for AF in CAD-related deaths increased from 49.7 per 100,000 in 1999 to 84.4 in 2020, with an AAPC of 2.52 (95% CI: 2.29 to 2.76, p < 0.000001). A moderate rise in AAMR from 1999 to 2016 (APC: 1.75, p < 0.000001), then significant surge from 2016 to 2020 (APC: 5.88, p < 0.000001). Men had higher AAMRs than Women (83.8 vs 46.6), with a more pronounced increase in men (AAPC: 3.44, p < 0.000001) compared to women (AAPC: 1.23, p < 0.000001). Racially, White population had the highest AAMRs (67.1), followed by American Indians or Alaska Natives (41.9), Hispanics (33.7), Blacks (32.2), and Asians (28.1). All racial groups saw significant increases in AAMRs, most notably among American Indians or Alaska Natives (AAPC: 4.64). Geographically, AAMRs varied, with Rhode Island having the highest (103.5) and Nevada the lowest (29.7). The Midwest had the highest regional AAMR (65.1), while nonmetropolitan areas exhibited higher AAMRs than metropolitan areas, both showing overall increase throughout study (3.34 vs 2.23).Conclusion:This analysis reveals increasing trends and demographic disparities in mortality rates due to AF in CAD patients among older adults in the U.S. The recent surge in mortality rates highlights the need for targeted interventions to address these disparities and improve health outcomes for this vulnerable population.

The formation of occlusive thrombi resulting in myocardial infarction or stroke present a significant challenge for the healthcare community. Activation of the prostacyclin (IP) receptor has been shown to decrease platelet reactivity, however current IP agonists lack a sustained effect in the blood. We have developed CS585, an IP receptor agonist with sustained anti-thrombotic effects in the blood, which could represent a novel prevention strategy in targeting thrombosis. We sought to assess the anti-thrombotic efficacy and pharmacodynamic stability of IP agonists CS585, iloprost and selexipag, in bothex vivoandin vivomodels.We evaluated the timeframe of effect of CS585, iloprost, and selexipag in mice following a single IV dose. Inhibition of thrombus formation was measuredex vivoin whole blood under arterial shear rates.In vivo, CS585, iloprost, or selexipag, were administered prior to labeling of platelets and fibrin. Thrombus formation at the site of injury was measured using the cremaster arteriole injury thrombosis assay.CS585 administered to mice prior to blood draw decreases platelet adhesion and blood clot formation under arterial shear conditions. These effects are observed up to 24 hours post-administration; however, the effects of iloprost and selexipag return to pre-treatment levels by 24 hours.In vivo, mice administered iloprost or selexipag demonstrated a decrease in platelet accumulation and fibrin formation, however the effects were abrogated post-administration by 10 minutes and 4 hours, respectively. Administration of CS585, however, demonstrated sustained inhibition of thrombus formation at the site of injury, with inhibitory effects observed at 18 hours post-administration.We have used bothin vivoandex vivomodels to demonstrate the anti-thrombotic efficacy of IP receptor agonists. Our results suggest that CS585, a novel IP receptor agonist, sustainably inhibits platelet activation and clot formation for extended periods, in contrast to existing alternatives. This demonstrates a significant improvement in the pharmacodynamic effects of IP receptor agonists in the blood, highlighting CS585 as a novel anti-platelet therapeutic with the potential to treat thrombotic diseases.

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4147150-A4147150, November 12, 2024. Background:Coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with hypertension is a significant health concern among adults in the United States. This study investigates trends and demographic disparities in mortality rates due to CAD in hypertensive patients aged 25 and older from 1999 to 2020.Methods:The CDC WONDER database’s mortality data from 1999 to 2020 was used for a retrospective analysis. Average Annual Percentage Change (AAPC) and Annual Percent Change (APC) were used to evaluate trends and calculate age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) per 100,000 people. The year, sex, race/ethnicity, and geographic regions were used to stratify the data.Results:Between 1999 and 2020, CAD in hypertension caused 1,512,89 medical facilities, accounting for 37.9% of all deaths. With an AAPC of 1.88 (95% CI: -0.81 to 4.36, p = 0.118), the overall AAMR grew from 7.7 in 1999 to 36.0 in 2020. There was a notable increase between 1999 and 2001 (APC: 30.07, p = 0.040) and a minor growth between 2001 and 2020 (APC: 0.85, p = 0.030). Adult men had higher AAMRs than women (men: 40.2; women: 25.2), with increases for both sexes [Men: AAPC: 4.75, p = 0.002; Women: AAPC: 2.70, p = 0.058]. AAMRs varied significantly by race, highest among Black individuals (39.9), followed by Whites (31.4), American Indians (30.4), Hispanics (27.7), and Asians (21.3). The AAMR increased for all races from 1999 to 2020, most notably in American Indians (AAPC: 4.91, p = 0.004). AAMRs varied by state, from 16.4 in Utah to 51.4 in West Virginia. The Midwest had the greatest regional death rate (33.6), followed by the West (31.1), Northeast (31.0), and South (30.9). Nonmetropolitan areas had higher AAMRs than metropolitan areas (34.7 vs. 31.0), with a greater increase in nonmetropolitan areas (AAPC: 6.22, p < 0.000001).Conclusion:This analysis reveals significant demographic and geographic disparities in mortality rates due to CAD in hypertensive adults in the U.S. The AAMR has increased fivefold over the past two decades, particularly among certain racial groups and geographical regions. These findings underscore the urgent need for targeted interventions and equitable healthcare access to mitigate these disparities and improve outcomes.

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4147484-A4147484, November 12, 2024. Introduction:Heart transplant (HT) is the gold standard for advanced heart failure, and the individuals burdened by advanced heart failure often have multiple comorbidities. Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is a common comorbidity and is frequently underdiagnosed. Previous studies examined the relationship between PEM and mortality in HT and found a positive association. However, the relationship between PEM and HT rejection, HT failure, and cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is scarce. Given that these complications also impact survival, we sought to explore the relationship.Methods:We identified all HT patients using ICD-10 codes from the 2016 to 2021 National Inpatient Sample database. Then, the PEM group was compared to the no-PEM group. We used Student’s Test and Pearson’s Chi-squared to analyze continuous and categorical variables. Then, multivariable logistic regression models were used to account for confounders and to predict the outcomes. The primary outcomes were HT rejection, HT failure, and CAV. The secondary outcomes were mortality, arrhythmias (composite of atrial and ventricular fibrillation and flutter, and supraventricular tachycardia), length of hospital stay, and cost of hospitalization. A 2-sided p-value was the statistical threshold for significance.Results:During the study period, 31,215 HT hospitalizations occurred, and 11.9% (3,700) had PEM. The median age for the PEM group was 65 years.Compared to the no-PEM group, HT rejection 0.8 (0.4-1.5), HT failure 0.8 (0.3-2.1), and CAV 1.08 (0.6-1.9) did not differ between both groups, p >0.05, each.The PEM group had a higher association with mortality 2.8 (2.1-3.6), arrhythmias 1.4 (1.07-1.8), longer LOS 8 vs. 4 days, and higher cost of hospitalization, $84,687 vs. $43,285, p

We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcome of HFpEF patients with various phenotypes in China.Methods and Results:Data from the Chinese Cardiovascular Association (CCA) Database-HF Center Registry between January 2017 and December 2021 were analyzed, 51,466 hospitalized HFpEF patients with 1-year follow-up results were included in this analysis. The patients were categorized into five phenotypes based on published phenotyping method. Clinical characteristics and 1-year outcome and related risk factors of HFpEF patients with various phenotypes were explored. Results demonstrated significant differences in baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes among the phenotypes, patients with phenotype-3 (right heart and pulmonary-related HFpEF), phenotype-4 (valvular- and rhythm-related HFpEF) and phenotype-5 (extracardiac disease-related HFpEF) exhibited high incidence of adverse outcomes. Phenotype-3 and -4 exhibited high risk of heart failure rehospitalization, whereas phenotype-5 showed high cardiovascular mortality. The independent prognostic risk factors varied across different phenotypes as well.Conclusion:One-year outcome differs among HFpEF patients with various phenotyping. Future studies are warranted to validate if personalized treatment strategies based on HFpEF phenotypes could improve the individual outcome of HFpEF patients, especially for phenotype-3, -4 and -5 HFpEF patients.Keywords:Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, phenotype, prognosis, population study, risk factors.

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4140731-A4140731, November 12, 2024. Introduction:Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are stem cell disorders that include include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), primary myelofibrosis (PMF), chronic neutrophilic leukemia, and less well defined entities such as chronic eosinophilic leukemia. MPN are associated with an increased cardiovascular risk including acute coronary syndrome. However, there is a lack of comprehensive data regarding the rate of coronary revascularization, as well as the in-hospital characteristics and outcomes for MPN patients.Objective:We aimed to evaluate the temporal trends and outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) among patients with MPN.Methods:The National Inpatient Sample database from 2016 to 2020 was queried to identify all PCI hospitalizations. Temporal trends and outcomes of patients with and without MPN following PCI were described. Propensity score matching (PSM) was implemented to compare outcomes between MPN and non-MPN groups.Results:Our study included 2,237,210 PCI hospitalizations with 7,560 (0.27%) patients having MPN. Throughout the study period, the prevalence of MPN among PCI admissions remained stable (p-value for trend = 0.12). Within the MPN subgroup, ET was the predominant condition (53.2%), followed by PV (24.2%), CML (19.6%) and PMF (3.0%), with no significant temporal variation in the distribution of these subtypes. Patients with MPN had higher prevalence of cardiovascular comorbidities than non-MPN patients. Following propensity score matching, MPNs were significantly associated with an higher risk of blood transfusions (OR: 1.66, 95% CI: 1.22-2.24, p=0.001) and AKI (OR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.17-1.65, p

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4147096-A4147096, November 12, 2024. Introduction:Increased prevalence and incidence of heart failure have resulted in a significant rise in the number of patients progressing to advanced heart failure (AHF). Heart transplantation (HT) has been the gold standard treatment for AHF. However, there is limited long-term data on trends in HT procedures and associated costs.Aim:This study aims to perform a comprehensive analysis to ascertain the trends in the number of HTs and the corresponding costs incurred.Methods:Utilizing the National Readmission Database 2010 to 2021, the study population was identified as new recipients of HT, and their median index admission charges were evaluated. We excluded patients aged < 18 with HT and LVAD during the index hospitalization.Results:We identified 36,379 weighted index hospital admissions from January to December 2010 - 2021. The annual HTs increased from 2,905 to 4,046, and the HT numbers increased by 39.28% (Figure 1). From 2010 to 2017, the HT numbers increased by approximately 11.46%; from 2018 to 2021, the increase was about 19.81%. Concurrently, median index admission costs increased from $146,817 in 2010 to $243,079 in 2021 (Figure 2), with a 65.57% cost increase. Considering patient demographics, 47% had private insurance, and Medicare covered 34%. Most patients were discharged home (48%) or to home with health care services (42%).Conclusion:Over the past 12 years, the total number of HT procedures rose by 39.28%. However, associated costs have surged disproportionately by 65.57% since 2010. A significant increase in OHT procedures from 2018 may be linked to policy changes by the United Network for Organ Sharing(Maitra, Dugger et al., 2023). Escalating costs warrant in-depth evaluation and potential policy revisions to curb healthcare expenses for managing advanced end-stage heart failure.

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4118777-A4118777, November 12, 2024. Introduction:Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an uncommon heart condition associated with serious complications. Advances in medicine have improved its prognosis. Despite this, such potentially life-saving improvements concerning the implementation of best practices are not ubiquitous; guidelines recommend management at specialized centers. Unfortunately, not all hospitals have specialized HCM centers. However, given that a sizeable portion of these specialists are also in academic centers (ACs), we hypothesize that ACs may be better positioned than non-academic centers to provide the highest quality care for HCM patients.Purpose:Our study aimed to assess in-hospital outcomes and healthcare burdens among patient admissions with HCM diagnoses, comparing those treated at academic centers with those receiving care at non-academic centers. We examine all-cause in-hospital mortality, length of stay (LOS), hospital costs, and investigate ethnic differences in patients with HCM.Methods:The National Inpatient Sample database was utilized to obtain HCM patient hospitalizations from 2012 through 2020 in the United States. Patient hospitalizations for which adult patients had a primary diagnosis of HCM were identified. Outcomes included all-cause in-hospital death, LOS, and hospital costs. All-cause in-hospital mortality was evaluated using multivariable logistic regression analysis. Multivariable lognormal regression models were used to estimate LOS and inflation adjusted cost outcomes.Results:All-cause mortality unadjusted rates were 2.2% in non-teaching hospitals compared with 1.7% at teaching hospitals; however, this difference was not statistically significant (p=.235). Both unadjusted and adjusted hospital LOS were 32% shorter for non-teaching hospitals (p

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page ASa904-ASa904, November 12, 2024. Background:The outcome of in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) has improved over the past decade, although the survival rate is still approximately 25%. Some cases of IHCA are triggered by medical adverse events, and their outcomes might be different by time when how many staffs is available. But the relationship between the time of occurrence and outcome remains unclear. The aim of this study is to compare the survival outcomes of IHCA at night with those during the daytime using the nationwide medical adverse events database in Japan.Methods:We searched the Japan Council for Quality Health Care nationwide in-hospital adverse events database, which registered 1 million cases per year, from 2010 to 2023. We extracted cases of IHCA and analyzed the cases by time of occurrence, grouping them into day time shift (8am-4pm), midnight shift (4pm-0am), and late night shift (0am-8am). The primary outcome was survival to discharge, and we performed multivariate logistic regression to adjust for age, sex, holiday, cause of medical adverse events, event location, occupation of the involved party, occupational history of the involved party and assignment period of the involved party as potential confounders.Result:A total of 4,252 cases were included during the study period. The most common age group was over 70years old (54.2%, n = 2,303 /4,252). 2,627 patients (61.8%) were male. The number of IHCA per time period was 1949 (45.8%) in the day time shift, 1,349 (31.7%) in the midnight shift and 954 (22.4%) in the late night shift. The most common cause of medical adverse events in all time periods was treatment or procedures. However, the rate of medical care was higher in the late night shift. Regarding the location of the event, the general ward was the most common location at all times. Multivariate logistic regression for survival on discharge yielded an adjusted odds ratio of 1.56 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30–1.86) ,1.33 (95% CI: 1.11–1.59) for the day time shift and midnight shift compared to the late night shift.Conclusion:Approximately 20% of in-hospital cardiac arrests due to medical adverse events occurred on the late night shift, with poor outcomes. Time of occurrence was associated with survival to discharge among IHCA cases that were identified in the nation-wide adverse events database.

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4137177-A4137177, November 12, 2024. Background:Arrhythmia is always a concern in oncological treatments. The advent of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has revolutionized cancer treatment, enhancing the immune system’s ability to combat malignancies. They are being more frequently used, revealing a range of immune-related adverse events (irAEs). This study aims to investigate the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in patients receiving Pembrolizumab.Methods:We conducted a retrospective analysis of the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database, focusing on reports submitted between 2006 to 2024. Cases involving patients treated with ICs were identified, and information related to cardiac arrhythmias was extracted using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA). Patients ≥ 18 years of age treated with ICIs were included in this study. A disproportionality analysis was conducted to identify arrhythmia events associated with pembrolizumab by comparing it with other immune checkpoint inhibitors (nivolumab, ipilimumab, and atezolizumab) and the entire FAERS database using the reporting odds ratio (ROR) and information component (IC).Results:A comprehensive analysis of 61,236 reported cases of pembrolizumab use revealed a total of 3,901 cases with cardiac complications. Among these, 672 cases (17.22 %) of arrhythmias were reported, with 452 individuals (67.26%) requiring hospitalization and 172 cases (25.59%) resulting in fatalities.Atrial fibrillation emerged as the most prevalent arrhythmia (49.7%). The occurrence of ventricular tachycardia with an ROR of 1.67 (1.18–2.35) and an IC of 0.44 (0.01–1.46) and complete atrio-ventricular block with an ROR of 1.57 (1.19–2.08) and an IC of 0.40 (0.04–1.24) were statistically significant. The reported arrhythmias associated with pembrolizumab are tabulated inTable 1. The majority of events were reported in males, as shown inFigure 1.Conclusion:This research offers significant insights into the connection between ICIs and cardiac arrhythmias, utilizing real-world data from the FAERS database. Healthcare providers should monitor cardiac events in patients receiving ICIs and aim to achieve a balance between anticancer effectiveness and cardiovascular safety. Further investigation is necessary to better understand the underlying mechanisms of arrhythmia and enhance risk stratification strategies for this specific patient group.

Background:The annual number of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) performed has surpassed that of surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) as its use expands to patient populations not included in initial clinical trials. However, in patients with Right Heart Failure (RHF), the outcomes of TAVI and SAVR remain unclear.Methods:We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the Nationwide Readmission Database from 2018 to 2021. Using ICD-10 codes, we identified all adult admissions for TAVI and SAVR with the presence of RHF. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included in-hospital complications, 30-day readmission rate, length of stay, and total hospitalization charges.Results:The study included 3,712 adult patients with RHF, of which 1,386 (37.3%) underwent TAVI and 2,326 (62.7%) underwent SAVR. Compared to SAVR patients, TAVI patients were older (63 years vs. 76 years, p

Background:The relationship between anion gap (AG) and short-term mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) sepsis patients complicated by pulmonary hypertension (PH) remains unclear.Methods:Retrospective analysis of incident sepsis patients complicated by PH first admitted to ICU in MIMIC database (2008 to 2019) were enrolled. Short-term outcomes include in-hospital mortality and 28-day mortality. According to the AG value (17.0 mmol/L), patients were divided into high and low AG groups. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to compare the cumulative survival rates of the high and low groups using the log-rank test. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were constructed to assess the relationship between AG and short-term outcomes in sepsis patients complicated by PH.Results:2012 sepsis patients with pulmonary hypertension were included. The in-hospital mortality rates (11.4%) and 28-day mortality rates (12.8%) in the high AG group were higher than those in the low AG group (5.0% or 7.2%, respectively;P< 0.001). The Kaplan-Meier curve showed that the in-hospital and 28-day cumulative survival rates were lower in the high AG group than that in the low AG group (P< 0.001). Multivariable Cox regression analysis confirmed that elevated AG was an independent risk factor of in-hospital mortality, 28-day mortality, length of stay in ICU and hospital. The relationship between elevated AG and in-hospital mortality remain stable after subgroups analyses.Conclusions:Elevated serum AG is associated with increased risk-adjusted short-term mortality in sepsis patients complicated by PH, and it may remind clinicians to identify patients with poor prognosis as early as possible.

Circulation, Volume 150, Issue Suppl_1, Page A4142450-A4142450, November 12, 2024. Introduction:M-TEER is a minimally invasive procedure for selected patients with symptomatic mitral regurgitation. It remains unknown whether the concomitant C-CTO would affect the outcomes of M-TEER procedure.Methodology:We used the Nationwide Inpatient Sample Data between January 2016 and December 2020 to identify M-TEER hospitalizations with concomitant C-CTO. Baseline characteristics including demographic data and comorbidities were identified. Primary outcomes were in-hospital all-cause mortality and net all cardiac periprocedural complications defined as a composite of acute myocardial infarction, pacemaker placement, cardiac tamponade, pericardiocentesis, pericardiotomy, pericarditis, and hemopericardium.Results:48,835 cases of M-TEER were identified during the study period, of whom 700 patients (1.5%) had the diagnosis of C-CTO. The mean age of M-TEER patients was not significantly different between the two groups (76 vs. 75 years, p=0.11), however the CTO cohort had more males (66.72% vs. 53.41%, p=0.002), and more comorbisities as; previous myocardial infarction (32.14% vs.15.66%, p= 0.0003), peripheral artery disease (32.1% vs. 22.67%, p=0.03), complicated hypertension (80% vs. 68.6%, p= 0.001) and renal failure (52.8% vs. 37.3%, p= 0.0007). A higher percentage of M-TEER procedures in patients with CTO were performed in elective setting (62.8% vs. 46.5%, p=0.0008). M-TEER among patients with CTO was associated with a higher incidence of net all periprocedural cardiac complications (21.4% vs. 13.4%, p=0.04) with however similar in-hospital mortality between both groups (3.57% vs. 2.35%, p=0.46). The results remained consistent on adjusted analysis; M-TEER-CTO cohort had higher odds of net all cardiac periprocedural complications (aOR 1.83 ,95% CI (1.17-2.84), p=0.007) with no difference in in-hospital mortality (aOR 1.54, 95 %CI (0.52-4.56), p =0.43). M-TEER utilization in CTO patients was associated with higher costs ($270,385 vs. $237,190 p=0.05), however, no significant difference in mean length of stay (5.8 vs. 4.8 days, p 0.17)Conclusions:In patient undergoing M-TEER, concomitant C-CTO increases the risk of net all cardiac periprocedural complications with no significant increase in mortality

Background:Pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs in 1% of patients with nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) despite thromboprophylaxis. Anticoagulation is the primary treatment of hemodynamically stable PE; however, risks of bleeding complications in ICH exist. We investigated the optimal timing of anticoagulation in patients with PE and ICH using a large retrospective database.Methods:We included patients with nontraumatic ICH and PE without acute cor pulmonale or prior long-term anticoagulation from the TriNetX Research Network. Patients were then categorized as early (0-3 days after ICH), intermediate (4-14 days), late (15-60 days), or no anticoagulation. Chi-square and independentt-tests were used for bivariable analyses. Cohorts were 1:1 propensity score-matched by 17 covariables including demographic information and comorbidities. Outcomes were all-cause mortality, neurological deficits due to ICH, and extracranial hemorrhage 90 days after ICH.Results:Of 13,042 included patients, mean age was 65±16 and 45% were female. Those receiving early anticoagulation after ICH had higher risk of mortality (RR=1.29, 95% CI: 1.20-1.38), neurological deficits, and extracranial hemorrhage compared to no anticoagulation. Intermediate anticoagulation had similar outcomes to no anticoagulation. Late anticoagulation had lower risk of mortality (RR=0.78, 95% CI: 0.66-0.92) and no significant difference in other outcomes.Conclusions:In patients with ICH and PE without acute cor pulmonale, early anticoagulation was associated with increased mortality, neurological deficits, and extracranial hemorrhage compared to no anticoagulation. Late anticoagulation was associated with decreased mortality and similar risks of neurological deficits and extracranial hemorrhage.

Despite its significance, there is limited data regarding the causes and mortality factors associated with KS, particularly concerning cardiovascular mortality rates and specific influencing factors.Methods:The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was used to gather data from 2000 to 2020. The primary endpoint was overall survival, assessed via log-rank analysis and Kaplan-Meier plots. Hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using SAS v9.4, with significance set at p80 years) vs. 0-19 year age group (HR: 2.263; 95% CI: 1.068-4.795; p=0.033), non-Hispanic Black race vs. non-Hispanic White race (HR 1.492; 95% CI: 1.369-1.627; p=0.001), and visceral involvement vs. cutaneous KS (HR 1.709; 95% CI: 1.487-1.963; p=0.001) were factors associated with increased mortality. Females had a slightly lower long-term survival than males (p

Data about the safety of the procedure among post-CABG patients is limited.Methodology:We used the Nationwide Inpatient Sample data between January 2016 and December 2020 to identify M-TEER hospitalizations with history of CABG. Baseline characterestics including demographic data and comorbidities were identified. Primary outcomes were in-hospital all-cause mortality and net all cardiac periprocedural complications defined as a composite of acute myocardial infarction, pacemaker placement, cardiac tamponade, pericardiocentesis, pericardiotomy, pericarditis, and hemopericardium.Results:48,835 cases of M-TEER were identified during the study period, of whom 9,655 (19.78%) had prior CABG. Patients with prior CABG undergoing M-TEER were older (76 vs. 75 years, p
