Clinical outcomes after hybrid coronary revascularization versus coronary artery bypass surgery: a meta-analysis of 1,190 patients
Conclusions: Hybrid coronary revascularization is associated with lower morbidity and similar in-hospital and 1-year major adverse cerebrovascular or cardiac events rates, but greater requirement for repeat revascularization compared with CABG. Further exploration of this strategy with adequately powered randomized trials is warranted.

Use of ranolazine in patients with incomplete revascularization after percutaneous coronary intervention: Design and rationale of the Ranolazine for Incomplete Vessel Revascularization Post–Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (RIVER-PCI) trial
Conclusions: RIVER-PCI is a novel, large-scale, international, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial evaluating the role of ranolazine in the long-term medical management of patients with ICR post-PCI.

Radial versus femoral approach comparison in percutaneous coronary intervention with intraaortic balloon pump support: The RADIAL PUMP UP Registry
Background: The role of intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in high-risk acute patients remains debated. Device-related complications and the more complex patient management could explain such lack of clinical benefit. We aimed to assess the impact of transradial versus transfemoral access for PCI requiring IABP support on vascular complications and clinical outcome.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 321 consecutive patients receiving IABP support during transfemoral (n = 209) or transradial (n = 112) PCI. Thirty-day net adverse clinical events (NACEs) (composite of postprocedu...

Dual antiplatelet therapy versus oral anticoagulation plus dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with atrial fibrillation and low-to-moderate thromboembolic risk undergoing coronary stenting: Design of the MUSICA-2 randomized trial
Conclusions: The MUSICA-2 will attempt to determine the most effective and safe treatment in patients with nonvalvular AF and CHADS2 score ≤2 after PCI-S. Restricting TT for AF patients at high risk for stroke may reduce the incidence of bleeding without increasing the risk of thromboembolic complications.

Response to letter by Messeri et al
We thank Dr Messeri and colleagues for their interest in our network meta-analysis on the risk of stroke in patients treated with on-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), off-pump CABG, and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), which builds upon a prior comprehensive pairwise analysis on the same topic. The crude event rates by simple pooling of data are 148/10,957 (1.4%) for 79 studies of on-pump CABG, 72/7,119 (1.0%) for 70 studies of off-pump CABG, and 15/4,653 (0.3%) for 17 studies of PCI. From a Bayesian binomial random-effect model, the absolute risk estimate for stroke was 1.4% in patients treated with on-pu...

Change in enrollment patterns, patient selection, and clinical outcomes with the availability of drug-eluting stents in the Bypass Angioplasty Revascularization Investigation 2 Diabetes trial
Background: In the BARI 2D trial, patients with type 2 diabetes and stable coronary artery disease were randomized to prompt revascularization versus intensive medical therapy (IMT). This analysis sought to evaluate how the availability of drug-eluting stents (DESs) has changed practice and outcomes.Methods: In BARI 2D, 1,605 patients were in the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)–intended stratum. As DES became available midway through recruitment, we report clinical outcomes among patients who underwent IMT versus prompt PCI with bare-metal stents (BMSs) or DES up to 4 years.Results: In North America, after DES b...

The need to know crude event rates in meta-analysis
Numerous reports have recently been aimed at comparing outcomes between on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Among these, the meta-analysis by Palmerini et al compared percutaneous coronary intervention with CABG using a network design that included 1 patient group receiving percutaneous coronary intervention (n = 4,653) and 2 patient groups in whom CABG was performed either on-pump (n = 10,957) or off-pump (n = 7,119). The rate of stroke at 30 days was the main end point.

Risk of stroke with percutaneous coronary intervention compared with on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery: Evidence from a comprehensive network meta-analysis
Conclusions: Percutaneous coronary intervention is associated with lower 30-day rates of stroke than both off-pump and on-pump CABG. Further studies are required to determine whether the risk of stroke is reduced with off-pump CABG compared with on-pump CABG.

The outcome of intra-aortic balloon pump support in acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock according to the type of revascularization: A comprehensive meta-analysis
Aims: Despite the recommendations of the current guidelines, scientific evidence continue to challenge the effectiveness of intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) complicated by cardiogenic shock. Moreover, 2 recent meta-analyses showed contrasting results. The aim of this study is to test the effect of IABP according to the type of therapeutic treatment of AMI: percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), thrombolytic therapy (TT), or medical therapy without reperfusion. Articles published from January 1, 1986, to December 31, 2012, were collected and analyzed by meta-analysis.Methods and resul...

Transradial percutaneous coronary intervention in cardiogenic shock: A single-center experience
Conclusions: Transradial approach for PCI is possible and safe in up to two-thirds of patients with CS. Absence of radial pulse was the main factor preventing use of TRA. In multivariate analysis, TRA was associated with a lower risk of mortality.
