P005/44 Using the pEGASUS-stent with antithrombogenic properties and single antiplatelet therapy in a case of thrombectomy
IntroductionRescue stenting is used more and more in stroke cases with large-vessel-occlusion or medium-vessel-occlusion refractory to mechanical thrombectomy. The pEGASUS-stent(Phenox) represents a device which is equipped with a hydrophilic polymer coating(HPC) with antithrombogenic properties. The coating allows for implantation under single antiplatelet therapy, thus possibly reducing the risk of bleeding in acute stroke cases.Case HistoryA 79-year-old woman was rushed to emergency room due to left-sided hemiparesis and National-Institutes-of-Health-Stroke-Scale(NIHSS) of 14. Computed-tomography-image showed an occlusi...

Ticagrelor versus clopidogrel after intracranial stent angioplasty: a real-world study
ConclusionIn our study involving patients with acute ischemic stroke who had undergone intracranial stenting, aspirin-ticagrelor was not found to be superior to aspirin-clopidogrel in reducing the rate of ischemic vascular events. The risk of bleeding did not differ between the two groups. Aspirin-ticagrelor does not lower total restenosis and symptomatic restenosis risk at follow-up.

Preferred monotherapy after short-term dual antiplatelet therapy: Systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized trials
CONCLUSIONS: Compared with aspirin monotherapy following short-term DAPT, ticagrelor following 3-month DAPT was associated with a reduced risk of primary bleeding outcomes without increasing any ischemic outcomes.PMID:37562542 | DOI:10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.08.001

Acute coronary syndrome in very elderly patients —a real-world experience
AbstractVery elderly population constitutes an increasingly larger proportion of patients admitted for acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Notably, age represents both a proxy of frailty and an exclusion criterion in clinical randomized trials, which probably contributes to lack of data and undertreatment of real-world elderly patients. The aim of the study is to describe patterns of treatment and outcome of very elderly patients with ACS. All consecutive patients aged  ≥ 80 years old (yo) admitted between January 2017 and December 2019 with ACS were included. The primary endpoint was in-hospital occurrence of major adv...

Investigation of Combined Carotid Endarterectomy and Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Outcomes and Adverse Event Risk Factors in the Vascular Quality Initiative
CONCLUSIONS: Combined CEA and CABG provides excellent long-term mortality prevention in patients with co-existing severe coronary and carotid atherosclerosis. Simultaneous CEA and CABG provides equivalent stroke prevention and long-term survival to both a cohort of patients undergoing coronary revascularization within 5 years of CEA and patients undergoing isolated CEA or CABG in the literature. The two most impactful modifiable risk factors towards long-term stroke and mortality prevention for patients undergoing simultaneous CEA-CABG are patch placement at CEA site and adherence to statin medication therapy.PMID:37303074...

Short Versus Long-Term Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients at High Bleeding Risk Undergoing PCI in Contemporary Practice: A Systemic Review and Meta-analysis
ConclusionShort-term DAPT after PCI in HBR patients was associated a reduction in major bleeding events and similar ischemic outcomes. However, a higher risk of ischemic stroke and MI at 1 year of follow-up was seen in some subsets.

Rivaroxaban Monotherapy is Preferable to Combination Therapy with Antiplatelets with Regards to Total Cardiovascular and Bleeding Events in Patients with AF and Stable CAD
In this study conducted across 294 centers, 2,215 patients were randomly assigned to rivaroxaban monotherapy, or therapy with rivaroxaban in combination with aspirin or a P2Y12 inhibitor. All patients were diagnosed with AF with a CHADS2 score greater than one, as well as confirmed CAD without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting within 12 months. Primary endpoints were the total number of first and subsequent bleeding and thrombotic events over a 24-month follow-up period. Thrombotic events included ischemic stroke, systemic embolism, myocardial infarction, and unstable angina requir...

Treatment of the New Era: Long-Term Ticagrelor Monotherapy for the Treatment of Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus following Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Meta-analysis
ConclusionLong-term ticagrelor monotherapy after a short course of DAPT use showed better results in patients with T2DM following PCI. Therefore, ticagrelor monotherapy after a short course of DAPT use could be considered an evolution in antiplatelet therapy of this decade for the treatment of patients with T2DM after PCI. However, newer studies with a larger population size and cost-effectiveness are factors that should further be considered.

A 28-year-old male with spontaneous coronary artery dissection complicated by apical thrombus and acute ischemic stroke: An interesting case
Radiol Case Rep. 2022 Nov 2;18(1):246-249. doi: 10.1016/j.radcr.2022.10.001. eCollection 2023 Jan.ABSTRACTSpontaneous coronary artery dissection is described as the intramural bleeding that separates the layers of an epicardial coronary artery wall, either with or without an intimal tear. Atherosclerosis, iatrogenic damage, or trauma are not linked to this syndrome. Here we present a 28-year-old male with 1 month history stroke but no any chronic disease as well family history of heart disease who presented with 2 days' duration of typical cardiac chest pain. Based on an emergency electrocardiogram that showed biphasic T-w...
