Progress in treatment by percutaneous coronary intervention: The stent of the future [PDF]
First generation drug-eluting stents have considerably reduced in-stent restenosis and broadened the applications of percutaneous coronary interventions for the treatment of coronary artery disease.

Randomized Comparison of Everolimus-Eluting and Sirolimus-Eluting Stents in Patients Treated With Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: The Scandinavian Organization for Randomized Trials With Clinical Outcome IV (SORT OUT IV) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Among drug-eluting stents released to date, the sirolimus-eluting stent has demonstrated the least amount of late lumen loss, but its efficacy and safety have not been compared head-to-head with the next-generation everolimus-eluting stent ...

An Analysis of Cost-Effectiveness of Stents Used in the Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease
Background: There is only limited information about the cost-effectiveness of drug-eluting stents compared with bare-metal stents in Turkey. Aims: To evaluate bare-metal and drug-eluting stents used in the treatment of coronary artery disease from the ...

A polymer coated cicaprost-eluting stent increases neointima formation and impairs vessel function in the rabbit iliac artery [PDF]
Drug-eluting stents have been successful in reducing in-stent restenosis but are not suitable for all lesion types and have been implicated in causing late stent thrombosis due to incomplete regeneration of the endothelial cell layer.

Pharmacokinetic analysis after implantation of everolimus-eluting self-expanding stents in the peripheral vasculature [PDF]
Background: A novel self-expanding drug-eluting stent was designed to release everolimus 225 mu g/cm(2) to prevent restenosis following peripheral arterial intervention.

Although safety profiles of sirolimus-eluting stents do not seem to differ in short-to-medium term from those of bare-metal stents, late stent thrombosis after deployment of drug-eluting stents has emerged as a potential safety concern in the era of high-

A mixed treatment comparison for short- and long-term outcomes of bare metal and drug eluting coronary stents [PDF]
Background The increasing use of drug eluting stents in interventional cardiology calls for assessment of their efficacy and safety, both among drug eluting and bare-metal stents, in the context of rational decision making.
