| Abstract | Regadenoson is a selective adenosine A2A-receptor agonist, used as a pharmacological stress agent for myocardial perfusion imaging. It is associated with frequent adverse effects (AEs), particularly among individuals younger than 65 years of age and women. Intravenous aminophylline administration following regadenoson, as described in the ASSUAGE trial, reduces the incidence of AE. In this substudy of the ASSUAGE trial, we compared the absolute and relative benefits of aminophylline administration versus placebo, between subgroups of age (<65 vs. ≥65 years) and gender (women vs. men). Study endpoints were headache, gastrointestinal AE, any regadenoson AE, and tolerability (feeling comfortable during regadenoson stress). Among patients <65years, compared with ≥65 years, aminophylline administration was associated with greater absolute risk reduction (ARR) in gastrointestinal AE (16% vs. 5%, P = 0.01) and any regadenoson AE (31% vs. 12%, P = 0.001), and with a greater absolute improvement in tolerability (21% vs. 1%, P < 0.001). Men received greater ARR in gastrointestinal AE than women (18% vs. 2%, P < 0.001). There was no difference in the ARR in other AE between subgroups. Across all subgroups, aminophylline use was associated with a consistent trend toward relative reduction in AE rates and improved tolerability. No significant interaction was identified between subgroups and aminophylline administration in reducing AE. In conclusion, although aminophylline use was associated with greater ARR in AE in certain subgroups, a consistent benefit with aminophylline administration was attained in all subgroups. Thus, to predictably reduce regadenoson AE and improve tolerability, aminophylline should be administered routinely to all patients as per the ASSUAGE protocol. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
