Systematic testing of literature reported genetic variation associated with coronary restenosis: results of the GENDER Study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Coronary restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention still remains a significant problem, despite all medical advances. Unraveling the mechanisms leading to restenosis development remains challenging.

Drug- and Gene-eluting Stents for Preventing Coronary Restenosis. [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) has been reported to be a major cause of death worldwide. Current treatment methods include atherectomy, coronary angioplasty (as a percutaneous coronary intervention), and coronary artery bypass.

Pre-Percutaneous Coronary Intervention C-Reactive Protein Levels and In-Stent Restenosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction C‐reactive protein (CRP) is an inflammatory biomarker, implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic lesion formation, plaque rupture, and coronary thrombosis. The relationship between preprocedural CRP levels and subsequent development of in‐stent restenosis (ISR) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) however remains

Coronary Artery Restenosis in Women by History of Preeclampsia
Background A history of preeclampsia is associated with increased risk of coronary artery disease and experimental evidence suggests that a history of preeclampsia also increases the risk of restenosis.

Rupture of the arterial wall causes deflection in pressure time course during ex vivo balloon angioplasty [PDF]
A relation between restenosis and arterial lesions resulting from balloon angioplasty has been suggested in literature. Nevertheless, it is unclear to what extent angioplasty-induced arterial wall lesions contribute to the occurrence of restenosis.

Restenosis of Coronary Arteries in Patients with Coronavirus Infection: Case Series
Introduction. Coronavirus infection is a risk factor for vascular thrombosis. This is of particular importance for patients undergoing myocardial revascularization since this infection can be a trigger for the formation of restenosis in the area of a ...

Inhibition of in-stent stenosis by oral administration of bindarit in porcine coronary arteries [PDF]
<p><b>Objective:</b> We have previously demonstrated that bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs), is effective in reducing neointimal formation in rodent models of vascular injury by reducing smooth ...

Restenosis After Coronary Angioplasty
Coronary angioplasty is used to treat coronary atherosclerotic disease in many patients. One problem with coronary angioplasty is the phenomenon of restenosis. Restenosis appears to be a universal response to arterial wall injury. The biological events that underlie restenosis are characterized by: platelet adhesion and aggregation at sites of damaged
