To determine whether low-flow/low-gradient (LF/LG) aortic stenosis affects survival after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), we performed a meta-analysis of currently available studies.
MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched through January 2019 using PubMed and OVID. Observational studies comparing all-cause mortality after TAVI for patients with classical LF/LG (C/LF/LG) aortic stenosis versus normal-flow/high-gradient (NF/HG) aortic stenosis, paradoxical LF/LG (P/LF/LG) aortic stenosis versus NF/HG aortic stenosis, and (3) C/LF/LG aortic stenosis versus P/LF/LG aortic stenosis were included. Study-specific estimates, risk and hazard ratios of mortality, were combined in the random-effects model.
Our search identified nine eligible studies including a total of 5512 TAVI patients. Pooled analysis demonstrated significantly higher early mortality in C/LF/LG aortic stenosis than NF/HG aortic stenosis (risk ratio, 1.72; P = 0.02) and no statistically significant difference in early mortality between P/LF/LG aortic stenosis and NF/HG aortic stenosis (P = 0.67) and between C/LF/LG aortic stenosis and P/LF/LG aortic stenosis (P = 0.51). Midterm mortality in C/LF/LG (risk ratio/hazard ratio, 1.73; P = 0.0003) and P/LF/LG aortic stenosis (risk ratio/hazard ratio, 1.48; P < 0.0001) was significantly higher than that in NF/HG aortic stenosis. There was no statistically significant difference in midterm mortality between C/LF/LG aortic stenosis and P/LF/LG aortic stenosis (P = 0.63).
After TAVI, C/LF/LG aortic stenosis is associated with increased early mortality compared with NF/HG, and C/LF/LG and P/LF/LG aortic stenosis is associated with increased midterm mortality compared with NF/HG aortic stenosis despite no difference in early mortality between P/LF/LG aortic stenosis and NF/HG aortic stenosis. There is no difference in early and midterm mortality between C/LF/LG aortic stenosis and P/LF/LG aortic stenosis.
通过荟萃分析目前已有的研究,确定低流量/低梯度(LF/LG)主动脉瓣狭窄是否会影响经导管主动脉瓣植入(TAVI)后的生存率。
通过使用 PubMed 和 OVID 检索 MEDLINE 和 EMBASE,检索时间截至 2019 年 1 月。纳入比较经典 LF/LG(C/LF/LG)主动脉瓣狭窄与正常流量/高梯度(NF/HG)主动脉瓣狭窄、反常 LF/LG(P/LF/LG)主动脉瓣狭窄与 NF/HG 主动脉瓣狭窄以及(3)C/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄与 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者 TAVI 后全因死亡率的观察性研究。采用随机效应模型对研究特异性死亡率风险比和危险比进行合并。
我们的检索共确定了 9 项符合条件的研究,共纳入了 5512 例 TAVI 患者。汇总分析显示,C/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者的早期死亡率明显高于 NF/HG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者(风险比,1.72;P=0.02),而 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者与 NF/HG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者(P=0.67)以及 C/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者与 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者(P=0.51)之间的早期死亡率无统计学差异。C/LF/LG(风险比/危险比,1.73;P=0.0003)和 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄(风险比/危险比,1.48;P<0.0001)患者的中期死亡率明显高于 NF/HG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者。C/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者与 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者之间的中期死亡率无统计学差异(P=0.63)。
与 NF/HG 相比,TAVI 后 C/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者的早期死亡率更高,而 C/LF/LG 和 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者的中期死亡率更高,尽管 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者与 NF/HG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者的早期死亡率无差异。C/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者与 P/LF/LG 主动脉瓣狭窄患者的早期和中期死亡率无差异。
