A Systematic Review on the Use of Intravascular Ultrasound and Optical Coherence Tomography During Femoropopliteal Endovascular Intervention

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Performing adjunctive intravascular imaging during femoropopliteal endovascular intervention could improve treatment planning and outcome. This systematic review assessed how imaging findings of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) can contribute to improving treatment planning and outcomes of patients with ...

Exercise stress testing before and after successful multivessel percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2006
Controversy exists regarding the diagnostic accuracy, optimal technique, and timing of exercise testing after percutaneous coronary intervention. The objectives of the present study were to analyze variables and the power of exercise testing to predict ...

Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: The anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials.

Comparison of Procedural and Clinical Outcomes of Angiography‐ Versus Imaging‐Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Intravascular Lithotripsy

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is an innovative treatment for coronary artery calcification (CAC). Aims This study aimed to compare procedural and clinical outcomes of intracoronary imaging (ICI)‐guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus angiography‐guided PCI with IVL in patients with CAC.

Advancements in Magnesium Applications, Biocompatible Implants to Nanoparticles in Medicine and Biomedical Innovations

open access: yesMetalMat, EarlyView.
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are identified as prospective materials for orthopedic and cardiovascular applications because of their bio‐corrosiveness and ability to stimulate tissue reparative processes. Although compared with traditional metals, Mg is biocompatible; however, it has various problems that stem from its biodegradation nature, for ...

High red blood cell distribution width is closely associated with in-stent restenosis in patients with unstable angina pectoris

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2019
Background In-stent restenosis remains an unresolved issue. Inflammation plays a pivotal role in the process of in-stent restenosis. Significant and positive associations were found between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and inflammation.

In-silico Analysis of Hemodynamic Indicators in Idealized Stented Coronary Arteries for Varying Stent Indentation [PDF]

open access: yes
In this work, we investigate the effects of stent indentation on hemodynamic indicators in stented coronary arteries. Our aim is to assess in-silico risk factors for in-stent restenosis (ISR) and thrombosis after stent implantation. The proposed model is applied to an idealized artery with Xience V stent for four indentation percentages and three mesh ...
