Résumé
Few data are available on long-term drug therapy and its potential prognostic impact after Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). Aim of the study is to evaluate clinical characteristics and long-term outcome of TTS patients on Renin Angiotensin system inhibitors (RASi). TTS patients were enrolled in the international multicenter GEIST (GErman Italian Spanish Takotsubo) registry. Median follow-up was 31 (Interquartile range 12-56) months. Comparison of RASi treated vs. untreated patients was performed within the overall population and after 1:1 propensity score matching for age, sex, comorbidities, type of trigger and in-hospital complications. clinicaltrials.gov, NCT04361994, https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT04361994 RESULTS: Of the 2453 TTS patients discharged alive, 1683 (68%) received RASi therapy. Patients with RASi were older (age 71±11 vs 69±13 years, p=0.01), with higher prevalence of hypertension (74%vs53%, p<0.01) and diabetes (19%vs15%, p=0.01), higher admission left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (41±11% vs 39±12%, p<0.01) and lower rates of in-hospital complications (18.9% vs 29.6%, p<0.01). At multivariable analysis, RASi therapy at discharge was independently associated with lower mortality (HR 0.63, 95%CI 0.45-0.87, p<0.01). Survival analysis showed that at long term, patients treated with RASi had lower mortality rates in the overall cohort (log-rank p=0.001). However, this benefit was not found among patients treated with RASi in the matched cohort (log-rank p=0.168). Potential survival benefit of RASi were present, both in the overall and matched cohort, in two subgroups: patients with admission LVEF ≤40% (HR 0.54 95%CI 0.38-0.78, p=0.001; HR 0.59, 95%CI 0.37-0.95, p=0.030) and diabetes (HR 0.41, 95%CI 0.23-0.73, p= 0.002; HR 0.41, 95%CI 0.21-0.82, p=0.011). Long-term therapy with RASi after a TTS episode was not associated with lower mortality rates at propensity score analysis. However, potential survival benefit can be found among patients with admission LVEF ≤40% or diabetes.
