Efficacy and Safety of Drug-Eluting Stents in the Real World: 8-Year Follow-Up

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2014
Background: Drug-eluting stents have been used in daily practice since 2002, with the clear advantages of reducing the risk of target vessel revascularization and an impressive reduction in restenosis rate by 50%-70%.

High nitrogen stainless steel drug-eluting stent - Assessment of pharmacokinetics and preclinical safety in vivo

open access: yesBioactive Materials, 2020
Pharmacokinetic analyses were performed using 20 pigs for 120-days implantation, while one sirolimus-eluting stent was implanted into one of their coronary artery.

Interventional oncology in children: Where are we now?

open access: yesJournal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
Abstract Paediatric Interventional Oncology (IO) lags behind adult IO due to a scarcity of specific outcome data. The suboptimal way to evolve this field is relying heavily on adult experiences. The distinct tumour types prevalent in children, such as extracranial germ cell tumours, sarcomas, and neuroblastoma, differ strongly from those found in ...

Drug eluting stents in 2005 [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2005
In the last 3–5 years there has been a major shift in the management of symptomatic, obstructive coronary artery disease, with a move from predominantly surgical to increasingly a percutaneous approach. The perceived benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) include patient convenience, ease of service expansion, and the fact that more ...

Far‐infrared irradiation attenuates platelet‐derived growth factor‐stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell migration through protein phosphatase 2A‐mediated Akt inhibition

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
FIR irradiation enhances the physical association between Akt and PP2Ac in VSMCs, independent of the hyperthermal effect of FIR rays. The increased binding between Akt and PP2Ac induced by FIR irradiation facilitates the dephosphorylation of Akt at Ser473.

Mystery and misery of locally‐delivered drug therapy in periodontics. Historical concepts and current state

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The primary objective is to critically analyze approaches to local therapy for periodontal disease, particularly in light of its well‐established systemic implications. We specifically address common misconceptions and overestimations regarding the potential of local treatments in contrast to their actual clinical effectiveness.

Bioresorbable vascular scaffold for coronary in-stent restenosis: A novel concept

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2014
The management of patients with significant in-stent restenosis (ISR) with drug-eluting stent is still not well defined. Various treatment modalities include plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA), metallic stent, cutting or scoring balloon and drug ...

The future of drug-eluting stents

open access: yesPharmacological Research, 2008
This review aims to provide a glimpse into the future of drug-eluting stents (DES). Since their arrival in 2002, DES have transformed the practice of interventional cardiology by drastically reducing restenosis and the need for repeat revascularization.

Bioresorbable Scaffolds for Coronary Arteries: Where Do We Stand Today?

open access: yesVIEW Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 1, August 2026.
Bioresorbable coronary scaffolds are moving from thick strut pitfalls to thinner, stronger, healing‐oriented designs. Integrating advances in materials, guided implantation with preparation, size, and postdilation steps, and resorption aligned to healing, we synthesize clinical evidence and chart a roadmap toward intelligent, transient platforms ...
