Brain Arterial Diameters as a Risk Factor for Vascular Events Epidemiology
Conclusions The risk of death, vascular death, and any vascular event increased at both extremes of brain arterial diameters. The pathophysiology linking brain arterial remodeling to systemic vascular events needs further research.

Impact of anemia on long-term outcomes in patients treated with first and second-generation drug-eluting stents Katowice-Zabrze Registry.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with anemia is significant higher risk of death in the 12-month follow-up, while anemia has no impact on the incidence of MI, repeat revascularization, and stroke. There is no advantage DES II over DES I generation in terms of MACCE and TVR in patients with anemia. PMID: 26575311 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing percutaneous coronary intervention with aspiration thrombectomy Vs. Conventional percutaneous coronary intervention during ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction
ConclusionsUsing the totality of evidence available through 2015, this meta‐analysis failed to show that the routine use of aspiration thrombectomy in patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction significantly reduces all‐cause mortality, MACE, recurrent MI, TVR, or stent thrombosis. The role of aspiration thrombectomy in selected patients with angiographic evidence of large thrombus burden requires further clinical investigation. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Invasive versus conservative strategy in patients aged 80 years or older with non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris (After Eighty study): an open-label randomised controlled trial
This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01255540. Findings During a median follow-up of 1·53 years of participants recruited between Dec 10, 2010, and Feb 21, 2014, the primary outcome occurred in 93 (40·6%) of 229 patients assigned to the invasive group and 140 (61·4%) of 228 patients assigned to the conservative group (hazard ratio [HR] 0·53 [95% CI 0·41–0·69], p=0·0001). Five patients dropped out of the invasive group and one from the conservative group. HRs for the four components of the primary composite endpoint were 0·52 (0·35–0·76; p=0·0010) for myocardial infarction, 0·19 (0·0...

Bilateral Internal Thoracic Artery Configuration for Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Trial Coronary Artery Disease
Conclusions— Three-year systematic angiographic follow-up revealed no significant difference in graft patency between the 2 BITA configurations. However, compared with in situ configuration, the use of BITA in a Y grafting configuration results in lower rates of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events at 7 years.

Invasively Measured Aortic Systolic Blood Pressure and Office Systolic Blood Pressure in Cardiovascular Risk Assessment: A Prospective Cohort Study Aortic Blood Pressure and Cardiovascular Risk
In conclusion, invasively measured aortic systolic BP does not add prognostic information about cardiovascular outcomes and all-cause mortality compared with office BP in patients with stable angina pectoris, either with or without diabetes mellitus.

Utility of high density lipoprotein particle concentration in predicting future major adverse cardiovascular events among patients undergoing angiography.
CONCLUSION: In this study of patients undergoing angiography, HDL-P was a strong, independent predictor of future MACE, with the smaller HDL-P accounting for this association. PMID: 27616009 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Gender-Based Differences in Outcomes After Orbital Atherectomy for the Treatment of De Novo Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions.
CONCLUSION: Plaque modification with orbital atherectomy was safe and provided similar angiographic and clinical outcomes between females and males. Randomized trials with longer-term follow-up are needed to support our results. PMID: 27801655 [PubMed - in process]

Impact of Impaired Renal Function in Patients With Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions Treated With Orbital Atherectomy.
CONCLUSION: Despite higher-risk baseline characteristics, patients with CKD had no significant differences in MACCE. Orbital atherectomy represents a reasonable treatment strategy for the treatment of severe CAC in patients with CKD. A prospective randomized trial with long-term follow-up is needed to identify the optimal treatment for these patients. PMID: 28089999 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Outcomes in Elderly Patients With Severely Calcified Coronary Lesions Undergoing Orbital Atherectomy
ConclusionsThe elderly represented a sizeable number of patients who underwent orbital atherectomy. It is a safe and effective treatment strategy for elderly patients with severe CAC as the clinical outcomes were similar to their younger counterparts. A randomized trial should further clarify the role of orbital atherectomy in these patients.

Manual thrombectomy efficiency in relationship to the area at risk in patients with myocardial infarction with TIMI 0 ‐1 coronary flow: Insights from an all comers registry
ConclusionIn comparison with the group where MT was inefficient, efficient MT may modestly reduce final infarct size without a significant clinical benefit. In comparison with PCI‐only, no difference was found regarding stroke. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Independent Modular Filter for Embolic Protection in Carotid Stenting Peripheral Vascular Disease
Conclusions— The data suggest that independent modular filter use in carotid artery stenting in high surgical risk patients is safe and effective. The outcomes suggest that use of an independent modular filter may be associated with a lower rate of embolic complications associated with carotid stent placement.

Early Results of Surgical Simultaneous Therapy for Significant Carotid Artery Stenosis and Heart Disease
Conclusion Simultaneous coronary bypass grafting as a single procedure or in combination with valve replacement and endarterectomy of severe carotid lesions with or without patients' history of previous stroke can be performed with a calculated low surgical risk. The complication rate for neurologic and myocardial events is low compared with the hazard of a single surgical repair. The in-hospital mortality is not significantly different to isolated procedures. The concomitant appearance of coronary stenosis and carotid artery disease is reasonable due to the nature of arteriosclerosis. In our opinion these patients benef...
