The Association of CHADS-P2A2RC Risk Score With Clinical Outcomes in Patients Taking P2Y12 Inhibitor Monotherapy After 3 Months of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
CONCLUSIONS: The CHADS-P2A2RC risk score is valuable in discriminating high-ischemic-risk patients. Even in such patients with a high risk of ischemic events, P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy was associated with a lower incidence of bleeding without increased risk of ischemic events compared with prolonged DAPT.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02079194.PMID:38654565 | DOI:10.4070/kcj.2023.0268 (Source: Korean Circulation Journal)

Long-term outcomes following double kissing crush or mini-culotte stenting for complex coronary bifurcation lesions: the EVOLUTE-CRUSH  IV study
CONCLUSION: At long-term follow-up, the rates of TLF and MACCE were 17.4% and 20%, respectively. However, long-term TLF was significantly higher in patients treated with MCT than those treated with the DKC technique, primarily due to a more frequent occurrence of clinically driven TLR.PMID:38656396 | DOI:10.1007/s00059-024-05244-3 (Source: Herz)

Association between lipoprotein(a) and cardiovascular disease in patients undergoing coronary angiography
CONCLUSION: The findings indicated that elevated lipoprotein(a) had no obvious relationship with hypertension and obesity. Elevated lipoprotein(a) increases the risk of high total cholesterol, high LDL‑c, and premature CAD, and increases the occurrence and severity of coronary heart disease.PMID:38658408 | DOI:10.1007/s00059-024-05247-0 (Source: Herz)

Inflammation modifies the platelet reactivity among thrombocytopenia patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
Platelets. 2024 Dec;35(1):2327835. doi: 10.1080/09537104.2024.2327835. Epub 2024 Apr 24.ABSTRACTPercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients combined with thrombocytopenia (TP) are usually considered to be at low ischemic risk, receiving less proper antiplatelet therapy. However, recent studies reported a paradoxical phenomenon that PCI patients with TP were prone to experience thrombotic events, while the mechanisms and future treatment remain unclear. We aim to investigate whether inflammation modifies platelet reactivity among these patients. Consecutive 10 724 patients undergoing PCI in Fuwai Hospital were enrolle...

Antiplatelet therapy for treatment of coronary artery disease in older patients
Arch Cardiovasc Dis. 2024 Apr 12:S1875-2136(24)00055-X. doi: 10.1016/j.acvd.2024.02.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCoronary artery disease in older patients is more frequently diffuse and complex, and is often treated by percutaneous coronary intervention on top of medical therapy. There are currently no specific recommendations for antiplatelet therapy in patients aged≥75 years. Aspirin remains pivotal, and is still indicated as a long-term treatment after percutaneous coronary intervention. In addition, a P2Y12 inhibitor is administered for 6-12 months according to clinical presentation. Age is a minor bleeding ris...
