Effect of Pravastatin on myocardial perfusion after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty [PDF]
We studied the effect of pravastatin on coronary perfusion after percutaneous, transluminal coronary angioplasty. An exercise test performed within 2 weeks after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty induced reversible perfusion defects in 66 ...

Increased generation of platelet-derived microparticles following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty [PDF]
Platelet-derived microparticles that are produced during platelet activation bind to traumatized endothelium. Such endothelial injury occurs during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty.

Targeted delivery for treatments for restenosis and vein graft disease [PDF]
Surgery to restore blood flow in arteries blocked by atherosclerotic plaque is a common treatment in cardiovascular disease. Longtermcomplications of surgical treatment are vein graft disease and restenosis, a renarrowing of the blood vessel after ...

Bioresorbable Scaffolds for Coronary Arteries: Where Do We Stand Today?
Bioresorbable coronary scaffolds are moving from thick strut pitfalls to thinner, stronger, healing‐oriented designs. Integrating advances in materials, guided implantation with preparation, size, and postdilation steps, and resorption aligned to healing, we synthesize clinical evidence and chart a roadmap toward intelligent, transient platforms ...
