Outcomes of Drug‐Coated Balloon Versus Drug‐Eluting Stent for In‐Stent Restenosis and De‐Novo Lesions: A Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) and drug‐eluting stents (DESs) are commonly used in percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), but their long‐term comparative effectiveness remains unclear. This meta‐analysis aimed to compare the clinical and angiographic outcomes of DCB versus DES in patients with in‐stent restenosis (ISR) and
