The aim of the study to identify the genetic determinants of the coronary microvascular obstruction development during percutaneous coronary interventions in myocardial infarction patients. The study investigates the role of some variants of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) as predictors of CMVO development. Selected SNPs that are associated with the mechanisms of CMVO development (according to literature). Hypothesis: selected SNPs are independent genetic predictors of the development of CMVO during PCI in MI patients.
Study design: matched case-control study. Sample size: 80 patients. Patients must have inclusion criteria, haven't exclusion criteria, and sign an informed consent. Division into 2 groups in the ratio 1:1. Group 1 (CMVO+): 40 patients with MI who were detected the CMVO after PCI. The second group (CMVO-, control): 40 patients with MI who weren't detected CMVO after PCI. Groups are matched by sex and age. The sample size (80 patients) was determined in accordance with the following parameters: alpha error - 5%, study power - 80%, group size ratio - 1:1, minimum odds ratio for detection - 4.0, prevalence SNP in the population - 12-69% (average 50%).
CMVO (no-reflow) is defined as inadequate myocardial perfusion after successful mechanical restoration of blood flow through the IRA (according to the 2017 European Society of Cardiology STEMI guidelines). CMVO criteria (there must be at least one criterion): 1) IRA blood flow is less than 3 points according to TIMI flow grade; 2) myocardial perfusion less than 2 points according to Myocardial blush grade (MBG). Other causes of IRA obstruction (spasm, dissection, thromboembolism) must be excluded.
Research stages: 1) assessment of inclusion / exclusion criteria; 2) signing informed consent; 3) taking blood for genetic analysis (performed in the operating room immediately after PCI); 4) processing of blood samples and their transportation to the laboratory; 5) filling out the patient's register card (contains information about the treatment and outcomes); 6) performing genetic analysis; 7) statistical processing of the obtained results.
The registration card is filled in at the end of hospitalization. Purpose: 1) comparison of SNP variants and outcomes; 2) multivariate analysis of SNP variants and other CMVO predictors. The card contains the following data: information about PCI, risk factors for the CMVO development, laboratory data (general blood count, biochemical blood test, etc.), examination data (ECG, ECG monitoring, echocardiography, six-minute walk test), information about complications and outcomes. These laboratory tests and instrumental studies are used in accordance with routine hospital protocols for the treatment of MI patients (the using is not associated with the investigation).
Venous peripheral blood is used for genetic testing. Blood sampling is performed directly in the operating room after PCI. Selected SNPs from the "CardioGenetics Hypertension" panel, "CardioGenetics Thrombophilia" panel and "Genetics of Folate Metabolism" panel from the "DNA-Technology" company (Russia). Also used a set of reagents for the detection of Lys198Asn polymorphism in the EDN1 gene "SNP-Express-Cardiogenetics RT" from "Litekh" Company (Russia). SNPs are determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction with high resolution melt curve analysis using TaqMan fluorescent probes. The following SNPs are analyzed (SNP identifier and gene): rs4961 (ADD1); rs699 и rs4762 (AGT); rs5186 (AGTR1); rs1403543 (AGTR2); rs1799998 (CYP11B2); rs5443 (GNB3); rs2070744 и rs1799983 (eNOS); rs1799963 (F2); rs6025 (F5); rs6046 (F7); rs5985 (F13); rs1800790 (FGB); rs1126643 (ITGA2-α2); rs5918 (ITGB3-β3); rs1799762 (PAI-1); rs1801133 (MTHFR); rs1801131 (MTHFR); rs1805087 (MTR); rs1801394 (MTRR); rs5370 (EDN1).
Expected results: it will be proved or disproved that some variants of SNP are independent predictors of the development of CMVO during PCI in patients with myocardial infarction.
