Three-Year Clinical Outcomes With the Cilotax Dual Drug-Eluting Stent vs Everolimus-Eluting Stents in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction
CONCLUSION: In patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention, use of the Cilotax stent was associated with higher rates of target lesion revascularization, target vessel revascularization, and stent thrombosis than were everolimus-eluting stents. Use of the Cilotax dual drugeluting stent should be avoided in the treatment of myocardial infarction.PMID:38686684 | DOI:10.14503/THIJ-23-8271 (Source: Texas Heart Institute Journal)

Prognostic impact of heart failure admission in survivors of acute myocardial infarction
ConclusionsUtilizing real-world data of the contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention era from the Japan Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry database, this study demonstrates that the heart failure admission of AMI survivors was significantly associated with higher all-cause mortality rates.

Impact of Polyvascular Disease in Patients undergoing unprotected Left Main Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has demonstrated its safety and efficacy in treating left main coronary artery disease (LM-CAD) in select patients. Polyvascular disease (PolyVD) is associated with adverse events in all-comers with CAD. However, there is little data examining the interplay between PolyVD and LM-PCI, which we sought to investigate in a retrospective single-center study. We included patients undergoing unprotected LM-PCI at a tertiary center from 2012-2019. The patient population was stratified based on the presence or absence of PolyVD (i.e. (Source: The American Journal of Cardiology)

A Simple Bleeding Risk Score for the Complex Elderly Patient
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading global cause of death worldwide, and in an aging society, the burden of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the elderly population is increasing.(1) An important feature that distinguishes this cohort is the significant increase in the likelihood of experiencing bleeding and ischemic events.(2) Given the comparable prognostic significance of both bleeding and ischemic events(3), the selection of the appropriate intensity and duration of antiplatelet therapy assumes a crucial role from a clinical perspective.

Impact of Sex Differences on Clinical Outcomes in Patients Following Primary Revascularization for Acute Myocardial Infarction  - Insights From the Japanese Nationwide Registry
CONCLUSIONS: Within this nationwide cohort, women had worse clinical outcomes following AMI than men. However, these sex-related differences in outcomes diminished after adjusting for age. In addition, CKD was significantly associated with all-cause mortality in both sexes.PMID:38684394 | DOI:10.1253/circj.CJ-23-0966 (Source: Circulation Journal)

Differential Use of Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors with Bivalirudin in Patients with STEMI Undergoing PCI: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
ConclusionOverall, our findings suggest that bivalirudin may be a more efficacious intervention than heparin for reducing certain adverse events in patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI. (Source: American Journal of Cardiovascular Drugs)

The relationship between levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6, and C-reactive protein in the serum of elderly and acute myocardial infarction
This study aimed to explore the relationship between the serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and the prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) treatment. A total of 118 early-onset AMI patients who successfully received PCI (in the PCI group, blood samples were collected before PCI, 12, 24, 48 h after PCI, and 90 d follow-up period) and 52 AMI patients who received only cardioangiography (CAG) (in the CAG group, blood samples were collected before CAG, 12, 24, 48 h after CAG, and 9...

Drug-coated balloon in the treatment of coronary artery de-novo large lesions angiography
Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand). 2024 Apr 28;70(4):196-201. doi: 10.14715/cmb/2024.70.4.31.ABSTRACTThe superiority of drug-coated balloon (DCB) in treating small vessels, branching lesions, and high-risk bleeding lesions in coronary heart disease patients has been confirmed. However, its safety and efficacy in large vessels are still unclear. We aimed to investigate whether the efficacy of DCB in large vessels is not inferior to that of drug-eluting stent (DES). From November 2019 to April 2022, a total of 88 patients in our hospital who underwent coronary angiography for the first time and decided to receive DCB or DES tre...
