Guideline‐directed medical therapy in patients undergoing transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair for secondary mitral regurgitation

European Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2152-2161, November 2022., 2022
Triple guideline‐directed medical therapy (GDMT) prescription was associated with a lower 2‐year mortality compared to non‐triple GDMT prescription (A). Such association was observed in patients with concomitant comorbidities (B). CI, confidence interval; CKD, chronic kidney disease; CMP, cardiomyopathy; HR, hazard ratio; MRA, mineralocorticoid ...

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

International Heart Journal, 2014
In this study, we examined the early results for patients who underwent beating heart coronary bypass surgery and compared these results with those of conventional coronary bypass surgery.A total of 1094 patients who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass surgery between January 2009 and December 2011 in our clinic were included in this study ...

Aortic Root Anatomy and Impact on New‐Onset Left Bundle Branch Block After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Angulation of virtual basal ring (VBR), also known as aortic annulus, in relation to sino‐tubular junction (STJ) may lead to greater exposure of implanted stent to the conduction system, consequently increasing the risk of left bundle branch block (LBBB).

Segmentation and Vascular Vectorization for Coronary Artery by Geometry-based Cascaded Neural Network [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Segmentation of the coronary artery is an important task for the quantitative analysis of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) images and is being stimulated by the field of deep learning. However, the complex structures with tiny and narrow branches of the coronary artery bring it a great challenge.

Myocardial Infarction and All‐Cause Mortality Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Conservative Treatment of Chronic Total Occlusions: A West Denmark Heart Registry Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic coronary total occlusions (CTO) represent a therapeutic challenge, and results of randomized clinical trials and observational studies comparing conservative treatment versus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are underpowered.

Regression-based estimation of heterogeneous treatment effects when extending inferences from a randomized trial to a target population [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Methods for extending -- generalizing or transporting -- inferences from a randomized trial to a target population involve conditioning on a large set of covariates that is sufficient for rendering the randomized and non-randomized groups exchangeable.

Comparison of Fractional Flow Reserve and Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Saphenous Vein Grafts

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Revascularization decision‐making for saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) relies on angiographic lesion severity estimation, as studies on fractional flow reserve (FFR) for detecting ischemia in SVGs are scarce. Aims To compare FFR and quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) of SVGs against myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and to ...

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

Statistical matching and subclassification with a continuous dose: characterization, algorithm, and application to a health outcomes study [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Subclassification and matching are often used in empirical studies to adjust for observed covariates; however, they are largely restricted to relatively simple study designs with a binary treatment and less developed for designs with a continuous exposure.
