The effect of antecedent hypertension on mortality after acute coronary syndromes (ACS) in the percutaneous coronary intervention era is unclear. Therefore, this meta-analysis aimed to assess the effect of antecedent hypertension on short-term and long-term mortality after ACS in the coronary intervention era.
PubMed, Medline, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library were systematically searched up to July 2023. Ten studies with a total of 64,989 of patients met the inclusion criteria. The outcomes of interest were all-cause in-hospital mortality and long-term all-cause mortality.
No significant difference was observed in in-hospital mortality between the antecedent hypertension and non-antecedent hypertension groups in the ACS patients (pooled OR 1.07; 95% CI 0.79–1.45; I2=82%), which was the same as the ST elevation myocardial infarction group (pooled OR 1.01; 95% CI 0.73– 1.39; I2=66%). However, the result was statistically significant for non-ST elevation myocardial infarction patients (pooled OR 0.67; 95% CI 0.55–0.82; p=0.0001; I2=0%). Antecedent hypertension was related to increased long-term mortality in patients with ACS (pooled OR 1.28; 95% CI 1.16–1.40; p=0.0001; I2=0%), which was the same as the ST elevation myocardial infarction subgroup.
In the percutaneous coronary intervention era, antecedent hypertension is associated with higher long-term mortality in ACS patients. This meta-analysis found no significant difference in in-hospital mortality between the hypertension and non-hypertension groups. However, antecedent hypertension may be a protective factor related to in-hospital mortality for non-ST elevation myocardial infarction patients.
