Abstract Background In multiple studies, the potential relationship between daylight saving time (DST) and the occurrence of acute myocardial infarction (MI) has been investigated, with mixed results. Using the Dutch Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) registry facilitated by the Netherlands Heart Registration, we investigated whether the transitions to and from DST interact with the incidence rate of PCI for acute MI. Methods We assessed changes in hospital admissions for patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) or non-STEMI (NSTEMI) undergoing PCI between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2018. We compared the incidence rate of PCI procedures during the first 3 or 7 days after the transition with that during a control period (2 weeks before transition plus second week after transition). Incidence rate ratio (IRR) was calculated using Poisson regression. Potential gender differences were also investigated. Results A total of 80,970 PCI procedures for STEMI or NSTEMI were performed. No difference in incidence rate a week after the transition to DST in spring was observed for STEMI (IRR 0.95, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.87–1.03) or NSTEMI (IRR 1.04, 95% CI 0.96–1.12). After the transition from DST in autumn, the IRR was also comparable with the control period (STEMI: 1.03, 95% CI 0.95–1.12, and NSTEMI: 0.98, 95% CI 0.91–1.06). Observing the first 3 days after each transition yielded similar results. Gender-specific results were comparable. Conclusion Based on data from a large, nationwide registry, there was no correlation between the transition to or from DST and a change in the incidence rate of PCI for acute MI.

The Moment

Available evidence on the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the days after the spring daylight saving time (DST) transition suggests either a modest increase or no risk increase. Partial sleep deprivation and enhanced circadian clock misalignment have been implicated as the underlying mechanisms for increased AMI risk, probably via enhanced thrombo-inflammatory processes and activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Most of the studies, as we suggest as a perspective here, have used potentially inappropriate control periods, including the two post-transitional weeks, because adjustment after the spring DST transition lasts at least four weeks for all chronotypes and probably even beyond this period for late chronotypes. The most plausible conclusions, at the moment, for the risk of AMI after the spring DST transition are: (1) the risk is increased, (2) a relatively modest risk increase could be currently underestimated or in some studies undetected, (3) late chronotypes and/or individuals with high levels of social jetlag (a proxy for circadian clock misalignment) could be more affected by the phenomenon, and (4) underlying pathophysiological mechanisms should be further explored. As a significant part of world’s population continues to be affected by the biannual clock change, the question of increased AMI risk in the post-transitional period remains an intriguing public health issue.

Abstract Background The current evidence on the effects of daylight saving time (DST) transitions on major cardiovascular diseases is limited, and available results are conflicting. We carried out the first meta-analysis aimed at evaluating the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) following DST transitions. Methods We searched MedLine and Scopus up to December 31, 2018, with no language restriction, to retrieve cohort or case-control studies evaluating AMI incidence among adults (≥18y) in the week following spring and/or autumn DST shifts versus control periods. A summary relative risk of AMI was computed after: (1) spring, (2) autumn, (3) both transitions considered together versus control weeks. Stratified analyses were performed by gender and age. Data were combined using a generic inverse-variance approach. Results Seven studies (>115,000 subjects) were included in the analyses. A significantly higher risk of AMI (Odds Ratio: 1.03; 95% CI: 1.01-1.06) was observed in the two weeks following spring or winter DST transitions. The risk increase was however significant only after the spring shift (OR: 1.05; 1.02-1.07), while AMI incidence in the week after winter DST transition was comparable to control periods (OR 1.01; 0.98-1.04). No substantial differences by age or gender emerged. Conclusions The risk of AMI increases modestly but significantly following DST transitions, supporting the proposal of DST shifts discontinuation. Additional studies fully adjusting for potential confounders are required to confirm the present findings. Key messages The risk of acute myocardial infarction increases modestly but significantly following DST transitions. Although preliminary, our findings support the proposal of DST shifts discontinuation.

Background: The available evidence on the effects of daylight saving time (DST) transitions on major cardiovascular diseases is limited and conflicting. We carried out the first meta-analysis aimed at evaluating the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) following DST transitions. Methods: We searched cohort or case-control studies evaluating the incidence of AMI, among adults (≥18 y), during the weeks following spring and/or autumn DST shifts, versus control periods. The search was made in MedLine and Scopus, up to 31 December 2018, with no language restriction. A summary odds ratio of AMI was computed after: (1) spring, (2) autumn or (3) both transitions considered together. Meta-analyses were also stratified by gender and age. Data were combined using a generic inverse-variance approach. Results: Seven studies (>115,000 subjects) were included in the analyses. A significantly higher risk of AMI (Odds Ratio: 1.03; 95% CI: 1.01–1.06) was observed during the two weeks following spring or autumn DST transitions. However, although AMI risk increased significantly after the spring shift (OR: 1.05; 1.02–1.07), the incidence of AMI during the week after winter DST transition was comparable with control periods (OR 1.01; 0.98–1.04). No substantial differences were observed when the analyses were stratified by age or gender. Conclusion: The risk of AMI increases modestly but significantly after DST transitions, supporting the proposal of DST shifts discontinuation. Additional studies that fully adjust for potential confounders are required to confirm the present findings.

Objective This study aimed to identify the prognostic factors of patients with first-time acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to establish a nomogram for prognostic modeling. Methods We studied 985 patients with first-time AMI using data from the Multi-parameter Intelligent Monitoring for Intensive Care database and extracted their demographic data. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to examine outcome-related variables. We also tested a new predictive model that includes the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and compared it with the SOFA-only model. Results An older age, higher SOFA score, and higher Acute Physiology III score were risk factors for the prognosis of AMI. The risk of further cardiovascular events was 1.54-fold higher in women than in men. Patients in the cardiac surgery intensive care unit had a better prognosis than those in the coronary heart disease intensive care unit. Pressurized drug use was a protective factor and the risk of further cardiovascular events was 1.36-fold higher in nonusers. Conclusion The prognosis of AMI is affected by age, the SOFA score, the Acute Physiology III score, sex, admission location, type of care unit, and vasopressin use. Our new predictive model for AMI has better performance than the SOFA model alone.

Currently the emergency medicine turned on the wide use of the special enteral nutritional cocktails like “Diabetes” to manage different types of hyperglycemia under various acute disorders. Under the conditions of resuscitation and intensive care unit (RICU) there looked into the possibility and efficacy of early monitoring of the hyperglycemia target values using the special enteral nutritional cocktails with the MI patients.
