Clinical performance of polymer-coated paclitaxel-eluting stent implanted for diffuse and calcified superficial femoral artery stenotic lesions: Insights from a patient on hemodialysis

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2021
In recent years, various devices have been approved for peripheral artery disease with femoropopliteal lesions. However, treatment of long, calcified, and diffused lesions is still challenging because these lesions are associated with restenosis.

Liquid Gallium Nanozyme Coatings Enable Sustained Nitric Oxide Generation With Antioxidant and Anti‐Inflammatory Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Liquid gallium (Ga) acts as a catalytic center for nitric oxide (NO) generation within a tannic acid–zirconium metal–phenolic network coating. Stabilized Ga nanoparticles catalyze S‐nitrosothiol decomposition through surface electron transfer, enabling controlled NO production, enhancing endothelial biocompatibility, and providing antioxidant and anti ...

'Miracle stents' - a future without restenosis

open access: yesMcGill Journal of Medicine, 2020
Over the last three decades, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) technology has revolutionized the field of cardiology. PCI began in the form of balloon angioplasty, and was followed by coronary stenting.

Randomized Comparison of Sirolimus and Paclitaxel Drug-Eluting Stents for Long Lesions in the Left Anterior Descending Artery: an Intravascular Ultrasound Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The objective of this prospective randomized study was to verify whether the superiority of the sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) in inhibiting neointimal hyperplasia could be demonstrated in complex coronary lesions. The SES was compared with the paclitaxel-

Preclinical Serial Assessment of Virtual Physiology After Implantation of a Novel Endoluminal Resorbable Fibrillated Scaffold

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The resorbable fibrillated scaffold (RFS) is a novel electrospun, polylactide‐based endoluminal scaffold developed for peripheral arterial applications. Its porous microfibre architecture is intended to support host cell infiltration and vascular restoration.

Drug‐Coated Balloon‐Based Strategy for De Novo Coronary Artery Disease Across Complex and High‐Risk Indicated Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Risk Categories: A Multicenter Registry Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Evidence regarding the risk‐stratified effectiveness of drug‐coated balloon (DCB)‐based PCI for de novo coronary artery disease (CAD) remains limited, particularly in patients undergoing complex and high‐risk indicated percutaneous coronary intervention (CHIP PCI).

Length of carotid stenosis predicts peri-procedural stroke or death and restenosis in patients randomized to endovascular treatment or endarterectomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BackgroundThe anatomy of carotid stenosis may influence the outcome of endovascular treatment or carotid endarterectomy. Whether anatomy favors one treatment over the other in terms of safety or efficacy has not been investigated in randomized trials ...

Comparative Effectiveness of Peripheral Angioplasty Strategies for 1-Year Restenosis in Lower Limb Artery Disease: A Retrospective Single-Center Analysis

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background: Optimal endovascular strategy for lower limb peripheral artery disease (PAD) remains debated, particularly regarding 1-year restenosis. Aim: To evaluate the association between drug-coated balloon (DCB)-based angioplasty and 1-year restenosis
