A comparison of coronary angioplasty with fibrinolytic therapy in acute myocardial infarction.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2003
BACKGROUND For the treatment of myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation, primary angioplasty is considered superior to fibrinolysis for patients who are admitted to hospitals with angioplasty facilities.

Usefulness of Drug Eluting Stent in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention—A Single Center Experience in Taiwan

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
Drug eluting stents (DES) have been shown to reduce in-stent restenosis rate and target vessel revascularization in large clinical trials. However, the safety and efficacy of DES use in the Taiwanese population has not been reported.

The Proliferation REduction with Vascular ENergy Trial (PREVENT)

Current Controlled Trials in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001
PREVENT was the first prospective, randomized placebo-controlled study of intracoronary beta radiotherapy with 32P. A total of 105 patients with de novo or restenotic lesions, treated by stenting or balloon angioplasty, received 0 (control), 16, 20, or ...

Distal Balloon Angioplasty of Cerebral Vasospasm Decreases the Risk of Delayed Cerebral Infarction

American Journal of Neuroradiology, 2019
A group of 392 patients was analyzed (160 before versus 232 after January 2015). Distal balloon angioplasty was associated with the following: higher rates of angioplasty (43% versus 27%) and intravenous milrinone (31% versus 9%); lower rates of ...

Comparison of angioplasty with stenting, with or without abciximab, in acute myocardial infarction.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2002
BACKGROUND As compared with thrombolytic therapy, primary percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in acute myocardial infarction reduces the rates of death, reinfarction, and stroke, but recurrent ischemia, restenosis, and reocclusion of ...

Bioengineering Strategies for Treating Neointimal Hyperplasia in Peripheral Vasculature: Innovations and Challenges

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
This review highlights emerging bioengineering strategies for treating neointimal hyperplasia in the peripheral vasculature, focusing on approaches that promote re‐endothelialization, modulate smooth muscle cell phenotype, reduce inflammation, mitigate oxidative stress, and optimize biomechanical compliance.
