Diagnostic Accuracy of Angiography‐Derived Murray Law‐Based Quantitative Flow Ratio (μQFR) Versus Pressure‐Derived Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) in Moderate to Severe Calcified Coronary Lesions—The DIAMOND Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Murray law‐based Quantitative Flow Ratio (μQFR) is an innovative AI‐driven method for evaluating coronary lesions using contrast flow velocity estimates. Unlike traditional approaches, μQFR does not require pressure wires or hyperemia induction.

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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 ...

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

open access: yesCatheterization 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.

Paclitaxel‐Coated Balloons for Femoropopliteal Artery Disease Treatment in French Patients: A Longitudinal Observational Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical studies have demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for femoropopliteal revascularization. Long‐term studies in routine practice are limited. Aims The aim of this study was to assess long‐term outcomes after DCB angioplasty for femoropopliteal peripheral artery disease in a real ...

A Rare Case of Nitroglycerin Resistant Coronary Arterial Vasospasm During Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Coronary artery vasospasm following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication that can lead to myocardial ischemia, arrhythmias, and cardiogenic shock. Nitroglycerin‐resistant vasospasm, particularly involving the left main coronary artery (LMCA), poses significant diagnostic and ...

Efficacy and Safety of Intravascular Lithotripsy in the Management of Underexpanded Stents: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Stent underexpansion significantly heightens the risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE), and available treatment options for this condition remain limited. Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL) technology disrupts superficial and deep calcium by using localized pulsative sonic pressure waves, emerges as a promising tool for ...

Increased Thrombogenicity is Associated With Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction in Patients With STEMI—A Proof‐of‐Concept Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Up to 50% of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) develop coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD). Aims This study aims to assess whether a prothrombotic state of coronary blood, defined by thromboelastography (TEG), is associated with post ...

The First‐in‐Man Technique of Drug Eluting and Perfusion Therapy for Left Main Coronary Artery Disease

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Treating ostial left circumflex artery (LCx) lesions in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for left main disease (LMD) remains a challenge. Despite recent recommendations for the use of drug‐coated balloon (DCB) in this lesion, there are concerns about crossover‐stenting from the left main trunk (LMT) to the left anterior ...

Treatment With Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors and Long‐Term Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography and Cardiac Catheterization

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The effects of phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) inhibitors on the incidence of long‐term outcomes in patients with cardiovascular disease are not well understood. Objective: We studied the association between PDE5 inhibitor therapy and the incidence of adverse cardiovascular major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients ...
