Patients with chronic kidney disease stage 5 are generally treated by hemodialysis, preferentially performed via an arteriovenous fistula (AVF). We report the case of a 58-year-old male patient with diabetes mellitus, hypertension and end-stage renal ...

Coronary angioplasty is a definitive, percutaneous intervention to improve myocardial oxygen supply. The benefit of coronary angioplasty for stable angina pectoris is still a controversy.

This study develops a 3D vascular injury model using a microphysiological system that mimics key features of intimal hyperplasia. Antiproliferative drugs reduced VSMC proliferation but worsened endothelialdenudation. A combination of diphenyleneiodonium and quercetin effectively reduced proliferation and migration of VSMC and inflammation while ...

According to the latest guidelines, in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) cases, the best intervention to restore blood flow in the occluded coronary arteries is angioplasty at a time less than 90 minutes. Delay in timely implementation

An engineered in vitro platform mimicking stent strut cross‐sectional shapes reveals how geometry influences cell behavior. Sharp‐cornered geometries promote cell proliferation and matrix alignment, while rounded shapes reduce these effects. The findings align with clinical outcomes and suggest intracellular tension as a key driver, offering a ...

Long-Term Effectiveness of a Stent-Less Strategy With Drug Coated Balloon in Coronary Artery Disease: 3-Year Follow-Up of a Prospective All-Comers Observational Study. [PDF]
The effectiveness of percutaneous coronary interventions following a decision tree proposing a stent‐less strategy in stable patients with coronary artery disease is illustrated by Kaplan‐Meier curves of target lesion revascularisation, the study endpoint. DCB: Drug Coated Balloon; DES: Drug Eluting Stent; SCBA: scoring balloon angioplasty.

Reporting Standards for Angioplasty and Stent-Assisted Angioplasty for Intracranial Atherosclerosis [PDF]
Background and Purpose— Intracranial cerebral atherosclerosis causes ischemic stroke in a significant number of patients. Technological advances over the past 10 years have enabled endovascular treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.
