Comparison of Immediate Versus Staged Complete Revascularization in Patients With Index PCI Coronary Complications: A Study on Clinical Outcomes and Predictors of Complications

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and multivessel disease (MVD), complete revascularization (CR) improves clinical outcomes compared with culprit‐only percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the optimal timing of CR, immediate (ICR) versus staged (SCR), remains debated.

VERMONT μQFR: Diagnostic Accuracy of Murray Law‐Based 2D‐μQFR Compared to 3D‐μQFR and vFFR

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Murray law‐based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR) is an angiography‐derived physiological index that utilizes a single angiographic projection with artificial intelligence‐guided vessel segmentation. Aims To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and time efficacy of 2D‐μQFR against wire‐based fractional flow reserve (FFR ≤ 0.80), compare ...

Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility of Quantitative Flow Ratio at Low Frame Rate Angiography: The Prospective Multicentre Australian AVALON Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...

Temporal Trends and Prognosis in Rotational Atherectomy: A Comparison of Contemporary and Traditional Eras

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Rotational atherectomy (RA) has undergone considerable technical modernization in recent years. This study evaluated whether RA performed in the contemporary era was associated with superior cardiovascular outcomes compared with the traditional era. Aims To compare the clinical characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes of patients

Reduced plasma adiponectin levels relative to oxidized low density lipoprotein and nitric oxide in coronary artery disease patients

Clinics, 2011
INTRODUCTION: Adiponectin is a circulating hormone that is produced exclusively by adipocytes and has antiinflammatory and anti-atherogenic properties. The hypothesis that there are differences in adiponectin levels between stable and unstable coronary ...

Maximum Allowable Contrast Dose and Risk of Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Procedures

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recent studies have questioned whether iodinated contrast is causally related to acute kidney injury (AKI). AIM We pursed a contemporary analysis to determine the impact of contrast dose on AKI following coronary procedures in an era of lower contrast doses and less nephrotoxic agents.

Incidence of Periprocedural Myocardial Injury and Infarction After Intravascular Lithotripsy for Calcified Coronary Artery Stenosis

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) has emerged as an effective technique for modifying heavily calcified coronary plaques, facilitating optimal stent expansion while minimizing procedural complications. However, data on periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) and infarction (PPMI) following IVL remain scarce.
