'Miracle stents' - a future without restenosis

McGill 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.

Role of noncoding RNA in vascular remodelling [PDF]

, 2016
Purpose of review: Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are becoming fundamentally important in the pathophysiology relating to injury-induced vascular remodelling.

Adaptive 4D‐Printed Vascular Stents With Low‐Temperature‐Activated and Intelligent Deployment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Microarchitected coronary artery stents were fabricated using a polycaprolactone (PCL)‐based shape memory polymer (SMP) composite via projection micro‐stereolithography (PµSL) 4D printing. By incorporating diethyl phthalate (DEP) as a plasticizer, the thermal transition temperature (Ttran) was modulated to about 37°C, enabling rapid and autonomous ...

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.

Current Management of In-Stent Restenosis

Korean Circulation Journal, 2018
Despite the advent of the drug-eluting stents (DES) and improved stent design, in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a challenging problem. The currently available options for treatment of ISR include angioplasty alone, repeat stenting with DES or drug ...

Advances in procedural techniques--antegrade. [PDF]

, 2014
There have been many technological advances in antegrade CTO PCI, but perhaps most importantly has been the evolution of the "hybrid' approach where ideally there exists a seamless interplay of antegrade wiring, antegrade dissection re-entry and ...

Stent Strut Thickness and Restenosis [PDF]

Circulation, 2002
To the Editor: Kastrati et al recently reported1 significantly less restenosis with lesions randomized to deployment of one stent design (ACS RX Multi-Link, [ML]) than with a related design (Multi-Link RX Duet, [DT]) from the same manufacturer (Guidant). They attributed the difference in restenosis to the difference in strut thickness.

Radical‐Mediated, Substrate‐Independent Fabrication of Hybrid Solid–Hydrogel Materials With Tunable Crosslinking: An Initiator‐ and Crosslinker‐Free Approach

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces a substrate‐independent, reagent‐free plasma strategy that forms radical‐rich interlayers for covalent hydrogel attachment without initiators or crosslinkers. The long‐lived radicals drive in situ gelation, creating robust, cytocompatible hybrid solid–hydrogel constructs across diverse substrates.

Stent-induced hypersensitivity leading to refractory in-stent restenosis: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports
Background Even in the era of new-generation drug-eluting stents, in-stent restenosis remains a common and challenging problem of percutaneous coronary intervention.
