A New Approach in Risk Stratification by Coronary CT Angiography. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
For a decade, coronary computed tomographic angiography (CCTA) has been used as a promising noninvasive modality for the assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as cardiovascular risks.

Quantifying the risk of heart disease following acute ischaemic stroke: a meta-analysis of over 50 000 participants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective Following an acute stroke, there is a high risk of recurrence. However, the leading cause of mortality following a stroke is due to coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) but that risk has not been robustly quantified.

Left Main Coronary Artery Stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 1974
Fifty-six patients with severe stenosis of the left main coronary artery underwent coronary bypass surgery between January 1970 and December 1971. All patients had angina pectoris. Seventy-five per cent of the patients had an unstable anginal pattern. There were six perioperative deaths for a surgical mortality of 10.7%.

Impact of competitive flow on wall shear stress in coronary surgery: computational fluid dynamics of a LIMA-LAD model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Competitive flow from native coronary vessels is considered a major factor in the failure of coronary bypass grafts. However, the pathophysiological effects are not fully understood.

Simultaneous stenting of the left main coronary stem and internal carotid artery in a hemodynamically unstable patient [PDF]

open access: yesVojnosanitetski Pregled, 2011
Introduction. Combined endovascular interventions on carotid and coronary arteries are rare. Stenting of the unprotected coronary left main stem is a high risk procedure.
