Spatial Mismatch Between Angiographic Obstruction and Plaque Destabilization in Acute Coronary Syndromes: A Conceptual Narrative Review

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The identification of the “culprit lesion” in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) traditionally relies on coronary angiography, assuming that the most severe stenosis, abrupt occlusion, or largest filling defect marks the site of plaque destabilization.

Intravascular Lithotripsy in Left Main Stem Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background IVL is increasingly used for coronary calcium modification; however, prospective data for its use in LMS lesions are lacking. Aims To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and mechanical efficacy of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) for calcium modification in calcified distal left main stem (LMS) percutaneous coronary intervention ...

Balloon‐Stopper Retrieval and Peripheral Parking After Inadvertent Ostial Right Coronary Stent Deployment

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous treatment of right coronary artery (RCA) ostial lesions is technically challenging due to cardiorespiratory motion. Case Summary We describe a 70‐year‐old man undergoing PCI for an ostial RCA lesion where a forceful cough caused complete stent expansion within the aortic root.

Ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in the management of acute myocardial infarction

Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2019
Hypothesis: In the care of acute myocardial infarction, ticagrelor attenuates post-ischemic myocardial damage and inhibits platelet activity to a greater extent than clopidogrel.

Diagnostic Agreement and Threshold Correspondence Between Resting Full‐Cycle Ratio and Nicorandil‐Based Fractional Flow Reserve in Intermediate Coronary Stenosis: A Prospective Single‐Center Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background RFR has shown good aggregate agreement with FFR, including in prior Asian cohorts using intracoronary nicorandil. Where RFR‐FFR disagreement is concentrated relative to the FFR 0.80 decision boundary, and how the two binary thresholds correspond, remain incompletely characterized. Methods In a prospective single‐center registry, 300

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on the Safety of Antiplatelet Discontinuation Following Stent-Assisted Coil Embolization for Cerebral Aneurysms

NeuroSci
Background: Stent-assisted coil embolization (SACE) is a common endovascular technique for managing intracranial aneurysms. The permanent presence of a stent inside the cerebral artery necessitates the postoperative use of antiplatelets.

Trans‐Patch Retrograde Re‐Entry During Hybrid Revascularization of an External Iliac Artery Chronic Total Occlusion: A Technical Note and Review of Re‐Entry Strategies

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Failure of true‐lumen re‐entry after subintimal wire passage is a well‐recognized limitation of endovascular treatment for external iliac artery (EIA) chronic total occlusions (CTO). We report a 73‐year‐old woman with severe limb ischemia and a prior failed endovascular attempt who underwent hybrid left common femoral artery (CFA ...

Cangrelor Dosing, Administration, and Clinical Outcomes for Patients Undergoing Complex and High‐Risk Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cangrelor reduces thrombotic events in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with the advantage of rapid onset and offset. However, premature discontinuation may increase the risk of acute thrombosis for patients undergoing complex/high‐risk PCI (CHIP).

The Multifaceted Effects of Non-Steroidal and Non-Opioid Anti-Inflammatory and Analgesic Drugs on Platelets: Current Knowledge, Limitations, and Future Perspectives

Pharmaceuticals
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most widely utilized pharmaceuticals worldwide. Besides their recognized anti-inflammatory effects, these drugs exhibit various other pleiotropic effects in several cells, including platelets ...

One‐Year Clinical Outcomes of Paclitaxel‐Coated Balloon Angioplasty in Patients With and Without Acute Coronary Syndrome: The ALLIANCE Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Real‐world data after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) using drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) are limited. Aims We compared 1‐year clinical outcomes after PCI with paclitaxel DCBs between the ACS and non‐ACS patients.
