Adverse outcomes in fibrinolytic-based facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention: insights from the ASSENT-4 PCI electrocardiographic substudy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
AIMS: Patients in ASSENT-4 PCI undergoing tenecteplase-facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) had more adverse events than those undergoing primary PCI. We analysed this to gain further insights. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 549 patients with facilitated PCI and 541 undergoing primary PCI were characterized according to the extent of ST resolution. We also examined the relationship between time from symptom onset, presence of baseline Q waves, and 90 day events. Irrespective of treatment, 90 day mortality was lowest among 186 patients with complete ST resolution at both 60 and 180 min (1.8% facilitated; 0% primary PCI group) and highest in those 502 patients without complete ST resolution at either 60 or 180 min (6.7% facilitated; 5.2% primary PCI group, all P < or = 0.05). Patients undergoing facilitated PCI presenting >3 h with baseline Q waves also had higher 90 day mortality compared with those without Q waves (10.4 vs. 2.5%, P = 0.056). No significant differences were found within primary PCI patients on the basis of time from symptom onset or presence of initial Q waves. CONCLUSION: In this post hoc analysis, our data suggest that a fibrinolysis-facilitated PCI strategy was especially harmful in patients presenting beyond 3 h from symptom onset with established Q waves on their baseline ECG. This may relate to the convergence of later, less effective pre-procedural reperfusion but persisting exposure to the pro-thrombotic and bleeding risks of fibrinolysis.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
