Independent and joint effects of antibodies to human heat-shock protein 60 and Chlamydia pneumoniae infection in the development of coronary atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2001
Background—Studies have suggested that the prevalence of antibodies against heat-shock proteins (HSPs), Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn), and cytomegalovirus (CMV) is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD), but the independent or joint effects of ...

Intramyocardial Hematoma After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Chronic Total Occlusion: Two Case Reports

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...

Paclitaxel-coated balloon catheter compared with drug-eluting stent for drug-eluting stent restenosis in routine clinical practice.

EuroIntervention, 2016
AIMS The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy between paclitaxel-coated balloon (PCB) and drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation for the treatment of DES restenosis in complex situations.

Molecular atherectomy for restenosis [PDF]

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1993
Receptors for basic (b) and acidic (a) fibroblast growth factor (FGF) are upregulated in activated smooth muscle cells. These cells, which proliferate in response to bFGF, can thus be killed by a conjugate of bFGF and the ribosome-inactivating enzyme, saporin (which, by itself, does not enter the cells).

Stent Fracture of Biolimus‐Eluting Stent (Biofreedom) Complicated With Micro‐Coronary Artery Aneurysm

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary stent fractures (SFs) are an emerging complication of coronary stents. There are numerous risk factors for SF, which include vessel angulation, use of sirolimus‐eluting stent (SES), long stents, multiple stent layers, stent overlap, inflammation, hypersensitivity, stenting in the right coronary artery, heavy calcification, ostial ...

Bindarit inhibits human coronary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation, migration and phenotypic switching [PDF]

, 2012
Bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs) synthesis, reduces neointimal formation in animal models of vascular injury and recently has been shown to inhibit in-stent late loss in a placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial.

Accurate and Safe Directional Coronary Atherectomy Using the X‐Ray Detector's Calculated Optimal Angular View

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Directional coronary atherectomy (DCA) is effective for bifurcation lesions but carries a risk of coronary perforation, due to geographical and recognition errors during the procedure. Geographical errors involve incorrect targeting of plaque‐free areas, whereas recognition errors stem from the misinterpretation of visual ...

Cell adhesive peptides functionalized on CoCr alloy stimulate endothelialization and prevent thrombogenesis and restenosis [PDF]

, 2017
Immobilization of bioactive peptide sequences on CoCr surfaces is an effective route to improve endothelialization, which is of great interest for cardiovascular stents. In this work, we explored the effect of physical and covalent immoblization of RGDS,

Drug‐Coated Balloons Versus Non‐Coated Balloons for Side Branch Treatment in Bifurcation Lesions: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary bifurcation lesions (CBL) account for ~20% of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). When using provisional stenting, optimal management of a diseased side branch (SB) remains debated. Drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) are an emerging option, but data on their role in CBL PCI are limited.

Prognostic role of restenosis in 10 004 patients undergoing routine control angiography after coronary stenting.

European Heart Journal, 2015
AIM Routine control angiography is a valuable tool with high-sensitivity in detecting restenosis after coronary stenting. However, the prognostic role of restenosis is still controversial.
