New-onset atrial fibrillation after PCI and CABG for left main disease: insights from the EXCEL trial and additional studies
Purpose of review To provide an up-to-date review of recent trials examining the incidence and prognostic impact of new-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) and the impact of postprocedural NOAF compared to nonsurgical atrial fibrillation. Recent findings A recent analysis from the Evaluation of XIENCE versus Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery for Effectiveness of Left Main Revascularization (EXCEL) trial demonstrated that NOAF is much more frequent following surgical compared with percut...

ECG Educational Standards for Prehospital Providers
Conclusion As the role of evidence-based medicine becomes more prominent in the field of emergency medicine, a clear view of the current state of ECG education and platform from which to implement uniform standards becomes increasingly essential; especially as research expands into the prehospital setting. Further research into EMS education may identify both strengths and weaknesses in basic ECG interpretation appropriate for first responders. Implementing minimum ECG interpretation standards for EMS personnel nationwide is one potential option to ensure prehospital educational institutions stay responsive to current scie...

Efficacy and safety of clopidogrel only vs. clopidogrel added proton pump inhibitors in the treatment of patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention: A systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionsThe patients in the non-PPI group were observed to be associated with less risk of MACE, myocardial infarction recurrence, stent thrombosis, target vessel revascularization (TVR) and stroke. And the two groups had similar all cause death, cardiovascular death, bleedings events.

Influence of CYP2C19 genotype on antiplatelet treatment outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with coronary heart disease.
Authors: Yu D, Ma L, Zhou J, Li L, Yan W, Yu X Abstract The aim of the study was to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of ticagrelor and clopidogrel in patients with coronary heart disease one year after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), and to explore their association with the CYP2C19 gene polymorphism. A total of 971 patients with coronary heart disease who were hospitalized and underwent PCI from April 2016 to May 2017 were studied. All 971 patients were divided into three subgroups according to CYP2C19 gene types as fast metabolizing, slow metabolizing and very slow metabolizing type. Patients we...

Inhibition of Platelet Aggregation After Coronary Stenting in Patients Receiving Oral Anticoagulation
CONCLUSION: After coronary stent implantation, dual therapy with a NOAC and a P2Y12 inhibitor is recommended, subsequent to triple therapy given only during the peri-interventional period.PMID:33637173 | DOI:10.3238/arztebl.m2021.0150

Evaluating the efficacy and safety of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus the optimal drug therapy (ODT) for stable coronary heart disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis
DISCUSSION: Compared with ODT, PCI reduced the mortality and myocardial infarction rate of patients with CTO or severe coronary artery stenosis. However, the incidence of stroke, revascularization, and quality of life of patients were not significant different between PCI and ODT. Performance bias and detection bias should be cautioned.PMID:35572911 | PMC:PMC9096285 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-22-222

Relationship between lipoprotein(a) and revascularization after percutaneous coronary intervention in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with acute coronary syndrome
CONCLUSION: Lp(a) was an independent predictor of revascularization in patients with ACS complicated with T2DM, regardless of LDL-C levels. This suggests that Lp(a) measurement may help identify high-risk diabetic patients with ACS.PMID:35575139 | DOI:10.1080/03007995.2022.2078080
