Background: Previous meta-analyses have investigated the relative safety and efficacy profiles of different types of drug-eluting stents (DES) and bare-metal stents (BMS); however, most prior trials in these meta-analyses reported follow-up to only 1 year, and as such, the relative long-term safety and efficacy of these devices are unknown. Many recent studies have now reported extended follow-up data.
Background: Previous studies have suggested that vasa vasorum (VV) is associated with plaque progression and vulnerability.
Objectives: The aim of the CoreValve prospective, international, post-market ADVANCE-II study was to define the rates of conduction disturbances and permanent pacemaker implantation (PPI) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement with the Medtronic CoreValve System (Minneapolis, Minnesota) using optimized implantation techniques and application of international guidelines on cardiac pacing.
Objectives: The aim of this paper is to describe the feasibility of a novel transcatheter approach for mitral valve replacement using only venous access.
Objectives: This study sought to investigate the long-term comparative efficacy and safety of paclitaxel-eluting balloon (PEB), paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES), or balloon angioplasty (BA) for the treatment of drug-eluting stent restenosis.
Objectives: This study assessed clinical events and patient-reported chest pain 2 years after treatment of all-comers with Resolute Integrity zotarolimus-eluting stents (Medtronic Vascular, Santa Rosa, California) and Promus Element everolimus-eluting stents (Boston Scientific, Natick, Massachusetts).
Objectives: This study aimed to assess the clinical impact of strut width (evaluated by abluminal strut surface area [ASSA]) on periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI) and clinical outcomes in patients treated with bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) versus first-generation sirolimus-eluting stents (SES).
Objectives: This study was an observational, multicenter registry to determine clinical characteristics and 24-month prognosis of patients who underwent intracoronary ergonovine provocation tests.
Objectives: This study sought to determine whether pre–percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) plaque characterization using near-infrared spectroscopy identifies lipid-rich plaques at risk of periprocedural myonecrosis and whether these events may be prevented by the use of a distal protection filter during PCI.
Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the relative merits of optical coherence tomography (OCT), intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), and near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in patients with coronary artery disease for the prediction of periprocedural myocardial infarction (MI).
Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate the adequacy and feasibility of the single string bifurcation stenting technique.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with the mechanically expanded Lotus valve (Boston Scientific, Natick Massachusetts) offers potential benefits over treatment with the self-expanding CoreValve (Medtronic, Minneapolis, Minnesota).
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare outcomes and coronary angiographic findings in post–cardiac arrest patients with and without ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of neoatherosclerosis (NA) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation using optical coherence tomography.
Objectives: This study sought to evaluate the mechanism of post-procedural cardiac biomarker (CB) rise following device implantation.
