Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction in Patients With Hypertensive Emergency

Cureus
Background Hypertensive emergencies represent high-cardiovascular-risk situations defined by severe increases in blood pressure. The prevalence of hypertension in non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) is higher compared to STEMI and there is a lack of studies on NSTEMI patients with hypertensive emergencies. Patients with diabetes exhibited a

Clinical Impact of Adherence to Fractional Flow Reserve Guidance in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is established to guide revascularization in stable coronary disease and non‐culprit lesions in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, real‐world adherence to FFR guidance across the spectrum of ACS presentations, including ambiguous culprit scenarios, remains incompletely characterized.

Maximum Allowable Contrast Dose and Risk of Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Procedures

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recent studies have questioned whether iodinated contrast is causally related to acute kidney injury (AKI). AIM We pursed a contemporary analysis to determine the impact of contrast dose on AKI following coronary procedures in an era of lower contrast doses and less nephrotoxic agents.

Novel Use of Intravascular Lithotripsy for the Mobilization of an Entrapped Coronary Guidewire in a Heavily Calcified LAD/DB Bifurcation Lesion—A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 64‑year‑old man with a Non–ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) underwent coronary angiography, which revealed single‑vessel disease with a high‑grade proximal and a severely calcified mid‑LAD lesion just proximal to a diagonal branch (DB). Both the LAD and the DB were wired.

Risk of acute myocardial infarction with nonselective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs: a meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2006
The use of cyclo-oxygenase 2 selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is associated with increased risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The association between the risks of AMI with nonselective NSAIDs is less clear.
