Device profile of the Wingspan Stent System for the treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic disease: overview of its safety and efficacy.
Authors: Barnard ZR, Alexander MJ Abstract Introduction: This Wingspan Stent is a self-expanding, laser-cut, nitinol stent designed for the treatment of severe symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis to be used in conjunction with the Gateway angioplasty balloon. This review will describe the technical features of the stent, its composition, design, and functional characteristics, as well as an overview of its safety and efficacy.Areas covered: The engineering and manufacturing specifications are described for the stent. A systematic review of the literature from 2005 to 2019 is performed to define the safety prof...

Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Versus Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in Patients with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction
ConclusionCABG was associated with lower rates of long-term mortality and revascularization but higher rate of upfront stroke in patients with LVD. However, the data included consisted predominantly of observational studies, highlighting the paucity and need for randomized trials.

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Medical Therapy in the Treatment of Stable Coronary Artery Disease: An Updated Meta-Analysis of Contemporary Randomized Controlled Trials
CONCLUSIONS: In patients with stable CAD, overall, short-term and intermediate-term risks of all-cause mortality are not significantly different between PCI and MT. However, PCI may reduce the overall and intermediate-term risk of the combined outcome of all-cause mortality, MI, revascularizations, rehospitalizations, or stroke.PMID:34338654
