V tomto suplementu Cor et Vasa je uveden v souladu se zavedenými pravidly český překlad odborného stanoviska Evropské kardiologické společnosti (ESC), které je zaměřeno na akutní, periprocedurální a dlouhodobou antitrombotickou léčbu u starších pacientů. Stárnutí populace v západních zemích je samozřejmě spojeno také s narůstajícími počty starších nemocných, kteří vyžadují antitrombotickou léčbu. Volba nejvhodnějších antitrombotik je však u starších nemocných komplikována řadou faktorů: (i) jedinci ve vyšším věku byli nedostatečně zastoupeni v řadě klinických studií, a proto současná evidence pro tuto populaci je často nedostatečná; (ii) starší nemocní mají více komorbidit, které je třeba zohlednit při výběru optimální léčby; (iii) vyšší věk je jedním z nejvýznamnějších rizikových faktorů pro krvácivé komplikace; (iv) u starších jedinců je třeba vždy zohlednit celkový biologický stav, faktory křehkosti („frailty“) a dlouhodobou prognózu. Považujeme proto za velmi přínosné věnovat specifi cká doporučení pro volbu nejvhodnější antitrombotické léčby právě u této populace. Odborné stanovisko ESC autorů Adreotti a spol. přináší podrobný přehled této problematiky. Lze velmi ocenit důraz na individualizaci léčby u starších pacientů, která je jistě ještě důležitější než u mladších jedinců. Autoři stanoviska citlivě zohledňují především vyšší riziko krvácení a z tohoto pohledu doporučují volit strategii antitrombotické léčby se zásadním ohledem na bezpečnost a minimalizaci rizika komplikací. Velký důraz je kladen také na zlepšení adherence k léčbě a na mnoha místech textu je uvedeno doporučení k užívání fi xních kombinací léků. Autoři českého překladu se zcela ztotožňují s většinou doporučení uvedených v originálním textu. Přesto nelze nezmínit některé body, které považujeme přinejmenším za diskutabilní. Především nepovažujeme za odůvodněné zvažovat preferenci prasugrelu před ticagrelorem u nemocných s akutním koronárním syndromem (AKS) na základě výsledků dominantně jediné klinické studie ISAR-REACT 5. Nejen že v této studii nebylo dostatečné zastoupení starších pacientů, ale především studie srovnávala dvě různé léčebné strategie (předléčení vs. nepředléčení inhibitorem P2Y 12 ), nikoli ticagrelor s prasugrelem a této studii se vytýká řada dalších metodologických nedostatků. Za další diskutabilní doporučení považujeme podávání trojité antitrombotické léčby po dobu jednoho až dvou týdnů po AKS u nemocných vyžadujících dlouhodobou antikoagulaci, což je agresivnější postup ve srovnání s G uidelines ESC pro AKS bez elevací úseku ST, kde je doporučená doba trojité léčby do 7 dnů (za hospitalizace) bez ohledu na věk. S vědomím nedostatečné evidence se domníváme, že právě u starších jedinců s vyšším rizikem krvácení může být kratší doba podávání trojité léčby spojena s klinickým benefi tem. Bez ohledu na výše uvedené námitky však odborné stanovisko ESC pro antitrombotickou léčbu u starších nemocných představuje komplexní pohled na tuto problematiku a může být
在本增补中,Cor et Vasa是根据欧洲心脏病学会(ESC)专家意见的捷克翻译而成的,该专家意见侧重于老年患者的急性、围手术期和长期抗血栓治疗。当然,西方国家的人口老龄化也与越来越多的老年患者需要抗血栓治疗有关。然而,老年患者最合适的抗血栓药物的选择因许多因素而变得复杂:(i)老年人在许多临床试验中的代表性不足,因此目前对这一人群的证据往往不足;(ii)老年患者在选择最佳治疗时需要考虑多种合并症;(iii)年龄较大是出血并发症最重要的危险因素之一;(iv)应始终考虑到老年人的总体生物状况;虚弱因素以及长期预测。因此,我们认为为这一人群提供选择最合适的抗血栓治疗的具体建议是非常有益的。ESC作者Adreotti的专家意见。提供了对此问题的详细概述。强调老年患者的个性化治疗,这肯定比年轻患者更重要,这一点值得高度赞赏。该意见的作者对较高的出血风险很敏感,从这个角度来看,建议选择一种从根本上考虑安全性和将并发症风险降至最低的抗血栓治疗策略。还高度重视提高对治疗的依从性,在文本的许多部分都建议使用虚构的药物组合。捷克语译本的作者完全同意原文中的大部分建议。尽管如此,我们认为至少有一些问题值得怀疑。特别是,根据一项占主导地位的单一ISAR-REACT 5临床试验的结果,我们认为在急性冠状动脉综合征(AKS)患者中考虑普拉格雷优于替卡格雷是不合理的。在这项研究中,不仅老年患者的代表性不足,而且该研究比较了两种不同的治疗策略(P2Y12抑制剂治疗前与非治疗),而不是替卡格雷与普拉格雷,并且该研究被指责存在许多其他方法学缺陷。另一个有争议的建议是,对于需要长期抗凝的患者,在AKS后一到两周内给予三重抗血栓治疗,这是一种比没有ST段抬高的AKS的G指南ESC更积极的程序,在G指南ESC中,无论年龄大小,三重治疗的建议持续时间最长可达7天(住院期间)。意识到缺乏证据,我们认为,在出血风险较高的老年人中,三次治疗的持续时间较短可能与临床益处有关。然而,尽管存在上述异议,ESC关于老年患者抗血栓治疗的专家意见对这一问题提出了全面的看法,可以很好地指导选择最佳程序和改善老年患者治疗结果的方法。

Background: Intramyocardial dissecting hematoma (IDH) is blood-fi lled cavitation in the cardiac wall that can occur as a complication of myocardial infarction, chest trauma, or percutaneous intervention. It can develop in the left ventricular free wall, the right ventricle, or the interventricular septum. Case report: The case report describes a patient with IDH as a rare complication of myocardial infarction. The patient was hospitalized for ongoing irritating cough three months after ST elevated myocardial infarction treated with percutaneous coronary intervention. The echocardiography showed the image of a pseudoaneurysm of the left ventricle. The patient underwent surgery where a cavitation inside the left ventricle myocardial wall communicating with the left ventricle was found. The inner and outer border of the cavitation included myocardium, therefore diagnosis of IDH was established. The communication and the cavitation were closed with pledgeted sutures and a direct suture with a mesh stripe. Postoperative hospitalization was without complications and the patient was dismissed the eighth day after the surgery. Discussion: Diagnosis of IDH consists of anamnestic information of myocardial infarction and assessment on echocardiography. On echocardiography the IDH shows as a neocavitation within the heart wall with an echo-lucent center. The differential diagnosis of IDH includes aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm of the heart, thrombus of the ventricle and trabeculae. Conclusion: The IDH is a post-infarction complication important to include in the differential diagnosis of newly formed cavitation inside the ventricle wall seen on echocardiography. Conservative management is suggested when the IDH is small and not growing. Surgery is indicated if the patient is unstable or the IDH is large or growing. Klíčová slova:

Introduction: The myocardial work (MW) is a new echocardiographic method, based on the pressure-strain loop, which allows quantifying the cardiac performance. On the other hand, the pulse wave velocity (PWV) evaluates arterial stiffness, knowing that as the stiffness of an artery increases, the transmission velocity of the anterograde and the retrograde sphygmic wave increases

Dyslipidemia is the most frequent metabolic abnormality in western world population and a major risk fac- tor for coronary artery disease (CAD) development. Dyslipidemia treatment is still insuffi cient and achieving target LDL-level infrequent. Statins are a cornerstone of dyslipidemia management. Although statins are one of the safest drugs on the market, statin therapy can be associated with muscle symptoms and increased risk of DM development. Statin discontinuation is frequent, often driven by negative media coverage. Inclisiran is a therapeutic oligonucleotide that employs RNA interference and inhibits the translation of PCSK9-mRNA leading to long-lasting LDL-cholesterol lowering. LDL-cholesterol-lowering effect of inclisiran is reversed at the rate of approximately 2% per month, so the effect of a single dose persists up to approximately two years. When administered once every six months, inclisiran therapy decreases the level circulating LDL-cho- lesterol by 50–55% and up to 65% in selected patient populations. Inclisiran therapy is not associated with alterations in platelet count, blood lymphocyte, monocyte or neu- trophil count, does not cause alterations in blood TNF-alpha or IL-6 concentrations and does not induce relevant anti-drug antibodies. The only relevant side effect is an adverse reaction at the injection site. Inclisiran thus has the potential to become widely prescribed drug that will greatly contribute to dyslipidemia management and further decrease of CAD incidence.

Numerous indicators have been used to diagnose and prognosticate cardiovascular disease (CVD). The athe- rogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a logarithmic conversion of triglyceride (TG) to high-density lipoprotein (HDL) molar concentrations. The close association between AIP and the size of lipoprotein particles may account for its excellent predictive value. AIP may be computed simply using a typical lipid profi le. It is a better predictor of lipoprotein particle size than that of individual lipids or the ratio of TG to HDL.
