Coronary artery perforation complicated by cardiac rupture during conventional PCI [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2006
A 65-year-old female hypertensive, hypercholesterolaemic patient on medical therapy for stable angina presented with worsening symptoms. Coronary angiogram revealed a left coronary artery (LCA) with a 50% stenosis and a right coronary artery (RCA) subocclusion (Panel A). The patient underwent RCA angioplasty.

Long-term outcomes of ischemic post-conditioning primary PCI and conventional primary PCI in acute STEMI: a meta-analysis of randomized trials

open access: yesExpert Review of Cardiovascular Therapy, 2021
Data regarding ischemic postconditioning during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) as compared conventional PCI alone has yielded conflicting results. Online databases comparing use of ischemic postconditioning percutaneous coronary intervention (ICP-PPCI) in STEMI patients with conventional PPCI were selected.

Short-term outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function by conventional, tissue Doppler, and speckle-tracking echocardiographic study

open access: yesAl-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2020
Background Myocardial revascularization with chronic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction improved LV functional and survival. Echocardiographic (echo) remains the test for assessing cardiac function in clinical practice.

Intracranial failure after hippocampal-avoidance prophylactic cranial irradiation in limited-stage small-cell lung cancer patients

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We evaluated intracranial failure after hippocampus-avoidance-prophylactic cranial irradiation (HA-PCI) for limited-stage small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Data of 106 patients who received PCI with 25 Gy were retrospectively reviewed.

Evaluation of Performance of Robotic-Assisted Coronary Angioplasty System Over Conventional/Manual PCI

open access: yesCardiology & Vascular Research, 2022
Most percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) might present hazards for patients, procedure operators, and the laboratory staff [1-3]. Due to complex nature of lesions and procedures, both patients and laboratory team may be subjected to exposure of longer procedural duration and radiation [3].

A coded-aperture technique allowing x-ray phase contrast imaging with conventional sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Phase contrast imaging (PCI) solves the basic limitation of x-ray imaging, i.e., poor image contrast resulting from small absorption differences. Up to now, it has been mostly limited to synchrotron radiation facilities, due to the stringent requirements

Effect of preoperative coronary CT for planning of percutaneous coronary intervention for complex chronic total occlusion (CTS-C-CTOPCI): study protocol for an open-label randomised controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2023
Background Treatment of chronic total occlusion (CTO) by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with the difficulty of guidewire manipulation through the occluded segment, particularly when there is hard tissue due to calcification.

Improving elevation resolution in phased-array inspections for NDT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Phased Array Ultrasonic Technique (PAUT) offers great advantages over the conventional ultrasound technique (UT), particularly because of beam focusing, beam steering and electronic scanning capabilities.

IRX-2, a Novel Immunotherapeutic, Enhances Functions of Human Dendritic Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: In a recent phase II clinical trial for HNSCC patients, IRX-2, a cell-derived biologic, promoted T-cell infiltration into the tumor and prolonged overall survival. Mechanisms responsible for these IRX-2-mediated effects are unknown.

The efficacy and safety of CYP2C19 genotype-guided antiplatelet therapy compared with conventional antiplatelet therapy in patients with acute coronary syndrome or undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

open access: yesPlatelets, 2020
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 genotype is closely associated with the metabolism and efficacy of clopidogrel, thereby having an important impact on clinical outcomes of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or undergoing percutaneous coronary ...
