Everolimus‐Coated Laser‐Cut Self‐Expandable Metallic Stent Suppresses Stent‐Induced Tissue Hyperplasia in a Rat Gastric Outlet

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Everolimus‐coated laser‐cut self‐expandable metallic stents suppress stent‐induced tissue hyperplasia in the gastric outlet by reducing inflammation, fibrosis, and smooth muscle proliferation. Herein, we demonstrate the mechanical stability, sustained drug release, and histological benefits in a rat gastric outlet model, suggesting potential for ...

MEW/PVA‐MA Hydrogel Vascular Grafts: Enhancing Hemocompatibility and Endothelialization

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A biomimetic vascular graft combining biofunctionalized PVA‐MA hydrogels with a MEW scaffold is developed for small‐diameter applications. Gel‐MA and Hep‐MA incorporation enhances endothelialization and hemocompatibility, respectively, targeting the acute biological responses.

Coronary artery surgery: cardiotomy suction or cell salvage?

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2007
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) today results in what may be regarded as acceptable levels of blood loss with many institutions avoiding allogeneic red cell transfusion in over 60% of their patients.

Coronary Flow Reserve Measured by Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Patients Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Despite achieving complete revascularization, patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) may experience adverse outcomes, potentially attributable to coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). Coronary flow reserve (CFR), which integrates both epicardial and microvascular coronary function, and a reduced CFR following complete ...

Prevalence and Prognostic Impact of Coronary Chronic Total Occlusions in Patients With Cardiogenic Shock

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
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 ...

Procedural Characteristics and Safety of Slender Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: Slender Is Better

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives We aimed to examine the procedural characteristics and safety profile of slender percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) using a 5 Fr or smaller sheath. Background Smaller catheter size has been associated with fewer complications in PCI.

Decreased preoperative functional status is associated with increased mortality following coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

PLoS ONE, 2018
OBJECTIVES:Functional status prior to coronary artery bypass graft surgery may be a risk factor for post-operative adverse events. We sought to examine the association between functional status in the 3 months prior to coronary artery bypass graft ...
