Association of Frailty With Antiplatelet Response Among Elderly Chinese Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Abstract: Frailty has been implicated as a prognostic factor for ischemic cardiovascular diseases. However, the effects of frailty on platelet responses to aspirin and clopidogrel remain under investigation. In this study, we enrolled consecutive elderly patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who were treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to evaluate this association. A total of 264 patients (aged 70-95 years) were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups: a nonfrail (nFR) group and a frail (FR) … Show more

“…The previous results show that in the group of frail older people, the levels of P-selectin, fibrinogen, and thromboxane B 2 were higher than in the group of non-frail older people, which is important to consider since frailty can cause the platelets in these people to be more activated with a higher risk of thrombosis, there being a clear relationship between platelet hyper-reactivity and the occurrence of thromboembolic events, and can contribute to cardiovascular comorbidities in old age [ 110 , 111 ]. Frailty is closely related to oxidative stress, which plays an important role in the mechanism of platelet activation; therefore, some researchers point out that significant changes in oxidative stress may be one of the main causes of a high platelet response in frail patients [ 112 , 113 ]. Descriptions of all of the above-mentioned biomarkers are presented in Table 3 .…”

“…Moreover, frailty has been associated with endothelial dysfunction ( 35 ) and activated inflammatory response ( 36 ), two key molecular mechanisms underlying the adverse events after PCI, such as in-stent restenosis ( 37 , 38 ). In addition, in a recent study in elderly Chinese CAD patients after PCI, frailty has been related to high on-aspirin platelet response and high on-clopidogrel platelet response among, a validated independent risk factor of thrombotic events after PCI ( 39 ). Further studies are warranted to evaluate the exact mechanisms involved in the association between frailty and poor prognosis after PCI.…”
