Assessing the effectiveness of primary angioplasty compared with thrombolysis and its relationship to time delay: a Bayesian evidence synthesis [PDF]

, 2007
Background: Meta-analyses of trials have shown greater benefits from angioplasty than thrombolysis after an acute myocardial infarction, but the time delay in initiating angioplasty needs to be considered.

Small vesicles, big potential: A review of innovative exosome delivery and molecular mechanisms in preclinical myocardial infarction models

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This narrative review discusses animal models of exosome‐based myocardial infarction treatments. Emerging techniques aim to improve exosome stability, targeting, and bioavailability for MI treatment as drug delivery vehicles and regenerative mediators that promote myocardial regeneration. Abstract Exosomes have emerged as promising therapeutic carriers,

Tunable Regional Targeting of Self‐Assembling Peptide Nanomaterials in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
In a rat model of acute myocardial infarction, intravascular delivery of peptide nanofibers with a collagen‐targeting peptide bound to the infarct vasculature while globular peptide nanoparticles penetrated into the infarct area. This study demonstrated that size, shape, and surface chemistry of nanomaterials control the delivery location within the ...

Impact of Stepwise Balloon Angioplasty for De Novo Femoropopliteal Artery: A Retrospective Observational Study

Health Science Reports
Background and Aims Drug‐coated balloon use in the revascularisation of femoropopliteal (FP) lesions improves patency rates. However, conventional balloon angioplasty sometimes leads to severe artery dissection, which may be prevented using stepwise ...

Drug‐coated balloons: From conventional designs to next‐generation innovations in vascular therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review traces the evolution of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) from conventional designs to next‐generation platforms. We highlight innovations in balloon engineering, coating technologies, and therapeutic agents that enhance localized drug delivery while addressing challenges in efficiency, safety, and biocompatibility for vascular and emerging non ...

Successful Management of a Complex Coronary Bifurcation Lesion in Acute Coronary Syndrome Using a Free‐Metal Approach

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a 56‐year‐old male with non‐ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and a complex thrombotic lesion at the ostial left circumflex artery (LCX), extending into bifurcating marginal branches. Due to the high risk of side branch occlusion, a stentless strategy using thrombus aspiration, the reverse wire technique, and ...
