Clinical and Technical Predictors of Treatment Success After Coronary Intravascular Lithotripsy in Calcific Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is increasingly used to treat coronary artery calcification (CAC). This study aimed to identify clinical and procedural factors associated with IVL treatment success. Methods This retrospective analysis included 454 patients (73 ± 9 years, 75% male) treated with IVL from the multicenter BENELUX‐IVL ...

Measuring Global Multi-Scale Place Connectivity using Geotagged Social Media Data [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Shaped by human movement, place connectivity is quantified by the strength of spatial interactions among locations. For decades, spatial scientists have researched place connectivity, applications, and metrics. The growing popularity of social media provides a new data stream where spatial social interaction measures are largely devoid of privacy ...

Enhanced Drug Effect With Cutting Balloon Followed by Drug Coated Balloon in a Rabbit Model

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Drug‐coated balloon (DCB) are effective treatment options for patients with coronary artery disease and using of scoring or cutting balloon before the DCB usage were recommended. However, the effectiveness of lesion preparation with cutting balloons (CB) followed by DCB (CB + DCB) has not been evaluated before.

A New SVDD-Based Multivariate Non-parametric Process Capability Index [PDF]

, 2018
Process capability index (PCI) is a commonly used statistic to measure ability of a process to operate within the given specifications or to produce products which meet the required quality specifications. PCI can be univariate or multivariate depending upon the number of process specifications or quality characteristics of interest.

Randomized trial to assess worsening renal function by adding dapagliflozin for acute decompensated heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitor, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular mortality among patients with chronic heart failure. We aimed to evaluate the impact on a worsening renal function (WRF) by adding DAPA as compared to standard decongestive therapy with loop diuretics alone.

Early administration of SGLT2 inhibitors in hospitalized patients: A practical guidance from the current evidence

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitors represent one of the main cornerstones of heart failure treatment. Nevertheless, while the cardiovascular beneficial effects of these drugs have been clearly demonstrated by several clinical trials, in clinical practice, it remains challenging to identify the appropriate timing to start SGLT2 ...

Percutaneous coronary intervention in left main coronary artery disease with or without intravascular ultrasound: A meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2017
This meta-analysis compared IVUS-guided with angiography-guided PCI to determine the effect of IVUS on the mortality in patients with LM CAD. Current guidelines recommend intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in ...
