Cessation of dual antiplatelet therapy and cardiovascular events following acute coronary syndrome [PDF]
Objective: To assess whether cardiovascular events are increased after cessation of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and to explore predictors for recurrent events after DAPT cessation during long-term follow-up.

MYOCARDIAL REVASCULARIZATION [PDF]
Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease causes more morbidity, mortality and loss of economic capacity than any other group of diseases. The modalities of revascularization of the myocardium have undergone rapid advances with emphasis shifting alternately from medical methods to surgical.
