The Impact of Age on the Physiological Assessment of Borderline Coronary Stenoses
Background and Objectives: Coronary angiography is the gold standard for diagnosing coronary artery disease (CAD). In the case of borderline changes, patients require further diagnosis through ischemia assessment via one of the recommended methods of ...

The diagnostic value of measuring the momentary blood flow reserve versus non-invasive methods to detect myocardial ischemia in assessing the functional significance of borderline coronary artery stenoses [PDF]
Aim. To estimate the diagnostic value of measuring the momentary blood flow reserve (MBFR) versus the surrogate non-invasive standard (SNS) for myocardial ischemia verification (MIV) (a combination of stress echocardiography and single-photon emission ...

Introduction. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) is widely used to detect atherosclerotic changes in coronary arteries (CA). However, the method is limited by the impossibility to perform functional assessment of detected stenoses.

Short-term outcomes of borderline stenoses in vascular accesses with PTFE grafts [PDF]
There are controversial data about vascular access stenosis surveillance by ultrasonography. The definition of stenosis significance varies among centres. We performed a retrospective study to describe short-term outcomes of borderline asymptomatic stenoses defined by precise criteria and to determine possible risk factors of stenosis progression.We ...

Clinical phenotypes of patients with ischemic heart disease and borderline coronary artery stenoses
Background. Ischemic heart disease, despite ongoing therapeutic and preventive measures, remains the leading cause of disability and mortality in people of working age. Aim. Study of cardiovascular risk factors and assessment of the clinical and angiographic picture in patients with stable coronary heart disease and borderline coronary artery stenoses

Clinical and angiographic outcomes associated with surgical revascularization of angiographically borderline 50–69% coronary artery stenoses [PDF]
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) improves outcomes in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Bypass of angiographically significant lesions ≥70% is recommended, yet little is known about the incidence/outcomes with bypasses of 50-69% angiographically borderline lesions (ABLs) without fractional flow reserve testing.

Aim To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of cardiac perfusion computed tomography (PCT) with transesophageal electrocardiostimulation (TE ECS) for detection of ischemia in patients with borderline coronary stenosis (50–75 %) compared to measurements of fractional flow reserve (FFR).Material and methods The study included 25 patients with ...

Fractional flow reserve-guided management in stable coronary disease and acute myocardial infarction: recent developments [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading global cause of morbidity and mortality, and improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of CAD can reduce the health and economic burden of this condition.

Novel ELN mutation in a family with supravalvular aortic stenosis and intracranial aneurysm [PDF]
Pathogenic germline mutations in ELN can be detected in patients with supravalvular aortic stenosis. The mutation might occur de novo or be inherited following an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance.
