Bilaterally symmetrical congenital absence of radial artery: a case report [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The radial artery is used for the access of coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention, as well as for coronary artery bypass surgery. Variations of upper limb arteries are common, however, congenital absence of radial artery

ABSTRACT Background Mortality in patients with cardiogenic shock (CS) remains high despite advanced treatment strategies in CS patients, underlining the need for the identification of predictors of prognosis in CS patients. Therefore, the present study investigates the prognostic impact of coronary chronic total occlusions (CTO) in patients with CS ...

ABSTRACT Background Cardiac computed tomography (CT) is a well‐established process used to diagnose coronary artery disease; however, its specific advantages in predicting the use of atherectomy devices during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for moderate to severe calcified lesions remain to be determined.

The optimal treatment of multivessel coronary artery disease [PDF]
The practice of percutaneous coronary intervention has overtaken coronary bypass surgery in the treatment of ischaemic heart disease. Several randomized controlled as well as registry and observational trials have addressed the issue of patient selection

Common promoter variant in cyclooxygenase-2 represses gene expression: evidence of role in acute-phase inflammatory response [PDF]
Objective: Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is a key regulatory enzyme in the synthesis of prostanoids associated with trauma and inflammation. We investigated the COX-2 gene for functional variants that may influence susceptibility to disease.

ABSTRACT Background Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), comprising acetylsalicylic acid and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor such as clopidogrel, is the cornerstone of management in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). While conventional loading doses of acetylsalicylic acid and clopidogrel are well established, there is limited ...

Evaluation of the Appropriate Root Pressure for Maintaining Heartbeat during an Aortic Cross-clamp for Primary Repair of the Aortic Arch in Premature Infants with Associated Cardiac Anomalies [PDF]
We developed a new cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) method to minimize myocardial damage during aortic arch reconstruction. In this method, coronary flow and heartbeat were stabilized by maintaining the aortic root pressure with an adjusted preload of the ...

Coronary artery bypasses grafting
This article describes coronary artery bypass grafting by Avlliath Jay akrishnan et al. one of the most common reason for coronary artery bypass grafting is narrowing coronary arteries because of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis causes chest pain (angina
