Beyond antimicrobials: Ecological nano‐strategies for rebalancing dysbiotic oral microbial homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Oral microbial homeostasis, a dynamic host‐microbe balance, is vital in infectious diseases. Conventional antibiotics often disrupt this homeostasis, spurring interest in nanomaterials for oral microbial homeostasis rebalancing. This review outlines nanomaterial strategies across three ecological levels (population/community, ecosystem, and cross ...

Is There Any Relationship between TSH Levels and Prognosis in Acute Coronary Syndrome?

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia
Background: Some small studies have related higher levels of thyrotropin (TSH) to potentially worse prognosis in acute coronary syndromes. However, this relationship remains uncertain.

Calcified Plaque Detachment: Alternative Calcified Plaque Modification After Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified plaque (CP) detachment (CD) and calcium fracture (CF) can occur following coronary intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). The extent to which CF alone facilitates stent expansion during CP modification with IVL remains unclear. Aims This study aimed to investigate the clinical implications of IVL‐induced CD.

Comparison of Immediate Versus Staged Complete Revascularization in Patients With Index PCI Coronary Complications: A Study on Clinical Outcomes and Predictors of Complications

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and multivessel disease (MVD), complete revascularization (CR) improves clinical outcomes compared with culprit‐only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the optimal timing of CR, immediate (ICR) versus staged (SCR), remains debated.

Evaluation of Treatment Response of Calcified Nodules and Nodular Calcified Lesions Using Mean Density on Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Calcified nodules (CN) and nodular calcifications (NC) present significant challenges during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) because of their protruding morphology and high rigidity, which often result in inadequate stent expansion and suboptimal procedural outcomes.

Coronary Perforation During Excimer Laser Angioplasty in a Patient With Prior Thoracic Radiotherapy

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Management of heavily calcified coronary lesions remains challenging despite advances in plaque‐modifying technologies. Excimer laser coronary angioplasty (ELCA) is an effective adjunctive strategy with a low risk of no‐reflow. Case Summary A 75‐year‐old woman with non–ST‐segment elevation acute coronary syndrome and severe left ...

Interaction of Operator−Patient Sex on Peri‐Procedural Treatments and Major Coronary Outcomes After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There are limited data evaluating the association between operator−patient sex, and outcomes in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We included 138,112 consecutive PCI procedures in patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) in England and Wales, 2017−2020.
