16% vs 10% (HR 1.50, 95% CI 1.04– 2.17; P=0.032), stroke 5% vs
2% (HR 2.25, 95% CI 0.93– 5.48; P=0.073)). It should be emphasized that given the restrictive inclusion/ exclusion anatomical criteria of NOBLE, with more than three non- complex lesions and all
‘complex’ lesions eectively excluded, NOBLE was a comparison
of outcomes between CABG and PCI among a patient subgroup
that was relatively ‘PCI friendly’. Conversely, given the long recruitment period of NOBLE (>6years), that systematic screening
logs were not available in 31 of the 36 centres and the lack of an
‘all- comers’ design, there are concerns about signicant selection
bias in the trial— an issue that had plagued earlier pre- SYNTAX
CABG vs. PCI trials.– Comparatively, within EXCEL, the design
was ‘all- comers’ for patients up to intermediate anatomical complexity (SYNTAX Score <33), and importantly screened patients
were captured in registries.
Reasons for the diverging results between EXCEL (‘neutral’) and
NOBLE (favours CABG) have been extensively debated. However,
in reality both trials are likely pointing in the same direction, namely
CABG oers a more favourable net clinical benet in patients
with more complex CAD, and that the ‘downstream’ anatomical
complexity— i.e. plaque burden— and patient clinical co- morbidity,
as exemplied in the SYNTAX score II, is what drives long terms
outcomes to favour CABG over PCI.
As previously stated, unlike in NOBLE, it is important to emphasize that in EXCEL, there was a registry (n=1000) to allow documentation of treatment choice for all screened patients who could
not be randomized. Based on additional analyses of the screening
registry in EXCEL, the investigators estimated that approximately
62% of all patients with ULMCA may be eligible for PCI, and approximately 80% may be eligible for CABG. Longer- term follow- up
(10years) of both trials, with analyses of important subgroups, and
the impact of site vs. corelab anatomical SYNTAX Scores, may shed
further light on the reasons for the dierences in outcomes between
EXCEL and NOBLE.
Sex
Within SYNTAX, the presence of female sex was shown to be an
further evidence to support the sex hypothesis,, namely that
lower SYNTAX scores are needed in women with complex CAD
to allow for equipoise in long- term mortality between CABG
and PCI. The main hypotheses to account for these findings is
that women with complex CAD may have a plaque burden with
a more unfavourable plaque composition, particularly with the
progressive loss, with advancing age, of the protective effects of
oestrogen.,,
Diabetes
e absence of diabetic status from the SYNTAX score II has
proven to be a point of confusion and controversy, particularly
because it appears to be odds with international revascularization
guidelines. During the initial development of the SYNTAX score
II, it was demonstrated that diabetes was not an independent predictor of mortality in patients with complex artery disease from the
SYNTAX Trial when corrected for the end organ manifestations of
diabetes. ese factors included the anatomical SYNTAX score and
age/ creatinine clearance/ LVEF expressed as continuous (numerical) variables.
It should be emphasized that the SYNTAX score II was built on
the seminal work undertaken by a cardiac surgeon (Ranucci etal.)
who demonstrated that a simple integer— derived from three clinical variables expressed as a continuous variable (age, preoperative serum creatinine, and LVEF)— was at least comparable to the
EuroSCORE (composed of 17 variables) in predicting in- hospital
mortality aer CABG (Fig. 9.9).–
e nding that the presence of diabetes in itself to not provide
any further prognostic (or decision- making) information once the
anatomical SYNTAX score and age/ creatinine clearance/ LVEF (expressed numerically) were accounted for, is supported by populationbased data. Within these studies it was demonstrated that individuals
with CKD and proteinuria, but without diabetes, to have a stronger
association with the risk of myocardial infarction and a higher rate of
mortality, compared to those with diabetes, and that the relative risk
of long- term mortality associated with CKD was “much the same irrespective of the presence or absence of diabetes.”–
independent correlate for long- term mortality in the PCI arm.
Within the CABG arm this was not evident, with the result that substantially lower anatomical SYNTAX scores were required to allow
for equipoise for long- term mortality between CABG and PCI.,
During the development of the SYNTAX score II, the interaction

eect for female sex was clearly in favour of CABG compared to PCI
for long- term mortality when corrected for other risk factors (HR
CABG 0.59 (95% CI 0.32– 1.10), HR PCI 1.70 (95% CI 1.11– 2.60),
interaction eect 2.87 (95% CI 1.35– 6.07; P=0.0059)). Within the
DELTA registry (n=2891), in which the SYNTAX score II was originally externally validated, a similar nding for female sex on longterm mortality was made (HR CABG 0.52 (95% CI 0.31– 0.87), HR
PCI 1.09 (95% CI 0.82– 1.46), interaction eect 2.09 (95% CI 1.16–
3.76; P=0.014)).,
Notably within EXCEL, subgroup analyses demonstrated a
substantial trend towards more favourable outcomes (primary
endpoint of all- cause death, myocardial infarction, or stroke)
for CABG compared to PCI in women (HR male 0.87 (95% CI
0.66– 1.14), HR female 1.48 (95% CI 0.93– 2.41); P- value for inter-
action 0.06). Although external validation of the SYNTAX score
II is awaited from EXCEL, this finding nevertheless provides
In international guidelines, diabetes has been regarded diabetes as
a unique cardiovascular risk factor,– and the American College
of Cardiology/ American Heart Association guidelines recommend
that patients with diabetes mellitus be treated as having a CAD
equivalent. It is well established that the atherosclerotic vascular
disease process is accelerated in diabetes, both type Iand type II,
predisposing to a two- to fourfold increase in the development of
CAD compared to non- diabetic patients and with 75% of diabetic
patients dying as a result of a cardiovascular cause., In addition,
diabetic patients (compared to those without diabetes) have been
shown to have a substantially higher incidence of multivessel disease and greater plaque burden at presentation, with the severity
of the CAD proportional to the duration of diabetes. is is undoubtedly related to the metabolic abnormalities characteristic of
diabetes that provoke molecular mechanisms that contribute to

almost linear relationship between HbA1c and clinical outcomes,
insulin resistance, increased free fatty acids, dyslipidaemia, platelet
dysfunction, hypercoagulability, and an impaired response to injury.
Timing ofrevascularization indiabetes
e question of timing and mode of revascularization for diabetic patients (or indeed any patient) with complex CAD is not
yet resolved. Currently, guidelines support CABG as the primary
revascularization modality when a diabetic patient develops 3VD on
the assumption that the degree of plaque burden is so extensive that
bypass graing oers a prophylactic benet against future events.
On the one hand, oering diabetic patients CABG too early, particularly with limited plaque burden, may increase the potential
risk of the gras failing in the long- term, although this risk may
be reduced by the appropriate use of multiple arterial conduits. On
the other hand, by oering CABG to diabetic patients too late, the
perioperative risks of CABG may be increased because of increasing
patient comorbidity and frailty, extensive diuse coronary disease,
or too distal stent implantation precluding optimal gra placement,
thereby diminishing the potential mortality advantage of CABG.,
Striking the balance between these two scenarios is the challenge
for the Heart Team in clinical practice (Fig. 9.10), and is where clinical tools— such as the anatomical SYNTAX score or SYNTAX score
II— may aid in providing more objective evidence to guide recommendations for intervention, which modality, and its timing.
Finally, it is crucial not to under- estimate the vital role played by
guideline- directed optimal medical therapy and lifestyle modication, in substantially reducing adverse clinical events in patients
with complex CAD, in both diabetic and non- diabetic patients.–
Ongoingstudies
SYNTAX IItrial
In the ongoing SYNTAX II trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identier:NCT02015832), the SYNTAX score II is being used by the
Heart Team as a tool to recruit subjects with de novo three- vessel
CAD (without le main involvement) who have a postulated similar
long- term mortality between CABG and PCI (Fig. 9.11, upper
panel). Notably, subjects from all tertiles of the SYNTAX score are
eligible. As in the single arm study of ARTS- II (that led on to the
randomised SYNTAX Trial), SYNTAX II is a single- arm study,
with the CABG and PCI arms of the original SYNTAX trial being
used as historical control arms. e SYNTAX II PCI strategy utilizes
appropriate patient selection with the SYNTAX score II, a newergeneration metal DES platform with a biodegradable polymer,
contemporary CTO revascularization strategies, and functional/
intravascular ultrasound- guided stent implantation. Importantly,
the use of functional- guided PCI in SYNTAX II leading to a deferral of PCI in almost one- third of lesions (31%) (Fig. 9.11, lower
le panel) compared to the original SYNTAX trial, where intervention was solely determined on angiographic visual grounds. In

addition, 87% of attempted CTOs were successfully revascularized
(compared to 53% in the original SYNTAX trial), and intravascular
ultrasound guidance was used in 84.1% of patients (compared to
4.8% of patients in the original SYNTAX trial).
At 2- year follow- up of SYNTAX II,, the SYNTAX II PCI strategy
led to substantially improved clinical outcomes compared to the PCI
strategy adopted in SYNTAX I(Fig. 9.11, lower right panel). Moreover,
clinical outcomes were similar in 3VD patients with a low anatomical
SYNTAX s core (≤22)— in which revascularization guidelines currently
support PCI or CABG— compared to more anatomically complex 3VD
(anatomical SYNTAX score >22) in which current revascularization
guidelines support CABG. Notably, at an early follow- up of only 2years
no safety concerns were identied despite deferral of stenting in almost
one- third of lesions— with no increase in myocardial infarction in the
territory of the initially deferred lesions. It will be important to see if the
same holds true at 5years and longer of follow- up.
Exploratory endpoint comparing CABG withPCI
In the exploratory comparison of the SYNTAX II PCI strategy to the
predened CABG cohort from the original SYNTAX trial, equipoise
in MACCE was evident at early (2- year) follow- up. Notably, there
was an absence of convergence and crossing over of endpoints for
CABG and PCI at 2years, which was evident in ARTS Iand II.,
Consequently, a minimum of 5- year follow- up is essential to truly
evaluate any potential benet of the SYNTAX II strategy.

management by allowing an anatomical SYNTAX score to be calculated non- invasively prior to any invasive diagnostic procedure or
intervention. Now several studies have independently retrospectively validated this concept utilizing the anatomical SYNTAX score
alone.– In addition, the ongoing SYNTAX II trial has prospectively developed a non- invasive, MSCT- derived SYNTAX score II in
patients with de novo 3VD. Notably, the non- invasive SYNTAX score
II demonstrated at least substantial agreement with conventional
invasive angiography in guiding decision- making between CABG
and PCI.
SYNTAX III Revolution trial— non- invasive
Heart Team assessment ofmultivessel coronary
disease withcoronary CTangiography
e SYNTAX III Revolution trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identier
NCT02813473) is designed to provide evidence in decision- making by
randomizing two Heart Teams— composed of a cardiac surgeon, radiologist, and interventional cardiologist— to develop a ‘virtual’ treatment decision (CABG or PCI) in patients with le main or de novo
3VD, using information received strictly from non- invasive MSCT
angiography with functional assessment (HeartFlow), or from conventional invasive angiography (Fig. 9.12). e study was conducted in
223 patients over an 18- month period in six participating European
centres with statistical interpretation of the level of agreement between
the two Heart Teams in terms of their treatment decision based on the
MSCT- rst assessment or angiography- rst evaluation.
Treatment decisions were shown to be matched in 92.8% of patients (Cohen’s kappa coecient 0.82; 95% CI 0.73– 0.91). In addition, CTFFR was shown to be feasible in 196/ 223 patients, and
changed the treatment decision in 7% of patients, mostly from
CABG to PCI. Notably, the Heart Team agreed on the number of
bypasses, how many stents should be used, and their location in the
coronary circulation in 80% of cases.

Conclusion
Currently, best evidence dictates that CABG is superior to PCI for
the majority of patients with multivessel CAD with SYNTAX scores
greater than 22 and those with le main disease with SYNTAX
scores greater than 32. ere is, however, little doubt that decisionmaking in complex CAD is becoming increasingly multifaceted and
that clinical tools are needed to simplify the process and to make
it more objective for the Heart Team. In evaluating the existing
evidence basis for decision- making, it is vital to understand the selection of patients entered into trials and the duration of follow- up,
Clinical treatment
which must be an absolute minimum of 5years; indeed, even 5- year
follow- up should only be considered an ‘interim analysis’, as such
data are generally applied to decision- making for patients whose life
expectancy greatly exceeds 5years.
While current European guidelines (Table 9.1) advocate using
the anatomical SYNTAX score to aid in this process, clinicians
find this process time- consuming and cumbersome, and as
highlighted in SYNTAX and EXCEL, a significant disparity
exists between site- versus core laboratory- analysed anatomical SYNTAX scores which may have a detrimental impact on
patient care.
Reecting the importance of clinical factors in decision- making
between CABG and PCI, their incorporation into the SYNTAX
score II appears to circumvent some of the issues related to dierences in on- site versus core laboratory analyses, while simultaneously improving decision- making between CABG and PCI on the

are awaited. e prospect of non- invasive imaging may also circumvent this issue by streamlining decision- making, provided this is
used within the context of the Heart Team.
As clinical evidence continues to accumulate, we should focus our
attention on well- designed, prospective, contemporary clinical trials
to improve our understanding and treatment of complex CAD.

Lifestyle management and secondary
prevention ofcoronary arterydisease
Mansoor Ahmad, Sandra A. Weiss, and William S. Weintraub
Introduction
work, gardening, and household work. is results in improved
cardiorespiratory tness and moves patients out of the least t, least
Cardiovascular (CV) disease has been the leading cause of death
in industrialized nations since the early 1900s. According to the
American Heart Association (AHA), there are more than 1million
new and recurrent cardiac events occurring each year. ose with
a history of cardiac ischaemic events have a high risk of recurrent
events; however, the death rate from coronary artery disease (CAD)
declined from 1995 to 2005 by 26%. us, the burden of chronic
non- fatal CAD remains high and therefore underscores the importance of secondary prevention measures.
Clinical studies have shown that eective secondary prevention
can reduce mortality and improve quality of life. Secondary prevention comprises medical therapy, therapeutic lifestyle changes, and
revascularization in the form of coronary artery bypass graing or
percutaneous coronary intervention. From 1980 to 2000, CV death
rates in the United States have decreased by 50% with improvements
in CV risk factors, especially reduction in tobacco use and better
cholesterol and hypertension management accounting for most of
this dramatic decrease.
In this chapter we will focus on lifestyle modication, which is considered a major component of secondary prevention. Eectiveness
of lifestyle modications in reducing mortality has been proven. In
patients with CAD, smoking cessation, physical activity, and dietary
changes have shown mortality reduction of between 20% and 35%,
comparable to eect size estimates of cardioprotective drugs.
active high- risk cohort.
Effect onmorbidity andmortality
In one analysis, it was estimated that just by eliminating physical inactivity, 6% of CAD worldwide can be eliminated and life
expectancy of the world population may increase by 0.68years.
A meta- analysis of secondary prevention programmes that included 63 randomized trials and 21,295 patients with CAD showed
exercise- based programmes signicantly reduced mortality risk
(risk ratio 0.72, 95% condence interval (CI) 0.54– 0.95). Of note,
the survival benet seen in recent trials was similar to that seen
two decades earlier, which was before the development of current
cardioprotective drug regimens. is therefore demonstrates an
incremental benet of physical activity over medicinal therapies
that are shown to be eective in secondary prevention. Another
demonstrated benet of long- term exercise training is possible
attenuation of unfavourable remodelling of the le ventricle in
postinfarction patients.
How does it work?
Improvement ofcardiac riskfactors
Regular physical activity can improve multiple cardiac risk factors.

Physicalactivity
Physical activity is known to reduce comorbid risk factors, improve
quality of life, and is a major component of secondary prevention
of CAD. AHA guidelines recommend a goal of 30– 60 minutes of
moderate- intensity aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, at least
5days and preferably 7days per week.
Regular physical activity should also be supplemented by an increase in daily lifestyle activities that can include walking breaks at
overweight individuals with mild to moderate dyslipidaemia
showed that exercise training at a caloric equivalent of 17– 18
miles/ week jogging at a moderate pace signicantly decreased the
number of small low- density lipoprotein (LDL) particles, reduced
triglycerides, and increased total high- density lipoprotein (HDL)
concentration.
Insulinresistance
Regular physical activity is also known to improve insulin resistance
and glucose intolerance.
