Protocol for the Arterial Revascularisation Trial (ART). A randomised trial to compare survival following bilateral versus single internal mammary grafting in coronary revascularisation [ISRCTN46552265]

Trials, 2006
Background Standard coronary artery bypass graft surgery uses a single internal mammary artery and supplemental vein or radial artery grafts. Several observational studies have suggested a survival benefit with two internal mammary artery grafts compared

Final 2‐Year Results of the REFORM Study: A Randomized Trial of Biolimus DCB Versus Paclitaxel DCB for In‐Stent Restenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In the REFORM trial, treatment of coronary in‐stent restenosis with a Biolimus A9™ drug‐coated balloon (BCB) was found to be inferior with respect to in‐segment percentage stenosis at 6‐months in comparison to treatment with a standard paclitaxel coated paclitaxel‐coated balloon (PCB). Aims In this manuscript, the final prespecified

Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility of Quantitative Flow Ratio at Low Frame Rate Angiography: The Prospective Multicentre Australian AVALON Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...

An examination of factors influencing the choice of therapy for patients with coronary artery disease [PDF]

, 2006
Background A diverse range of factors influence clinicians' decisions regarding the allocation of patients to different treatments for coronary artery disease in routine cardiology clinics. These include demographic measures, risk factors, co-morbidities,

Clinical Outcomes of Drug‐Eluting Stents and Drug‐Coated Balloons in Tortuous Small Coronary Lesions

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In small, tortuous coronary lesions, the long‐term comparative performance of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty versus drug‐eluting stent (DES) treatment remains uncertain, despite both strategies being widely used in contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) practice. Aims This study aimed to compare 3‐year clinical

Coronary atheroma [14 cm] extracted from the right coronary artery during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting

Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University Journal, 2017
Coronary endarterectomy is a good option for surgical revascularization in diffusely coronary artery disease. In coronary artery bypass surgery, a diffusely diseased right coronary artery is an obstruction to accomplishing complete myocardial ...

Gene Transfer of Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Inhibits Macrophages and Inflammatory Mediators in Vein Graft Disease [PDF]

, 2008
Vein graft disease is a chronic inflammatory disease and limits the late results of coronary revascularization. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) inhibits macrophages infiltrated and inflammatory mediators, we hypothesized that transfected CGRP gene

Use of Intracoronary Pressure Wire Assessment and Association With Outcomes: Insights From the British Cardiovascular Intervention Society National Database

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite recommendations in international guidelines, Intracoronary pressure wire assessment (PWA) utilization remains limited in clinical practice. This study aims to describe (i) trends of PWA during Percutaneous coronary interventional (PCI), (ii) factors that predict its application, and (iii) association with in‐hospital ...
