To assess the likelihood of procedural success in patients with multivessel coronary disease undergoing percutaneous angioplasty, 350 consecutive (1,100 stenoses) from four clinical sites were evaluated. Eighteen variables characterizing severity and morphology each stenosis 18 patient-related assessed at a core angiographic laboratory sites. Most had Canadian Cardiovascular Society class III or IV angina (72%) two-vessel (78%). Left ventricular function was generally well preserved (mean...
The incidence of coronary perforation using new percutaneous revascularization techniques may be increased compared with PTCA. Still, is uncommonly reported, and the optimal management expected outcome remain unknown. objectives study were to determine balloon angioplasty (percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, PTCA) develop strategies for its based on classification outcome.Eleven sites frequent use devices prospective coding consecutive procedures during 1990 1991 contributed a registry....
BACKGROUND Several metallic intracoronary stents are currently undergoing preliminary evaluation to ascertain potential benefit as means reduce the 30-40% incidence of restenosis after balloon angioplasty. METHODS AND RESULTS To determine and correlates placement Palmaz-Schatz in native coronary arteries first group patients selected for this procedure, clinical quantitative angiographic data from 206 consecutive (221 stenoses) with successful stent (diameter stenosis < 50%) were...
Abciximab, a monoclonal antibody fragment against the platelet receptor alphaIIb beta3 integrin, prevents aggregation. A randomized, placebo-controlled study showed that abciximab improves outcomes for patients undergoing percutaneous coronary angioplasty at 30 days and 6 months.To determine whether 3 years after angioplasty.Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial.A total of 56 academic community hospitals in United States.A 2099 high-risk were randomized. Sufficient time elapsed...
BACKGROUND Rotational atherectomy using the Rotablator has recently become available to treat coronary stenoses. This study was performed determine relation of patient characteristics, stenosis morphology, and operator technique procedural outcome gain insight into which patients might be best treated with this device. METHODS AND RESULTS Four hundred stenoses from 316 randomly selected initial experience at three major referral institutions were analyzed. Angiographic data assessed a...
BACKGROUND Abrupt vessel closure and early reocclusion remain the principal vascular events underlying recurrent ischemia complicating elective percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Intracoronary stenting has been used to circumvent emergency bypass surgery after acute as an adjunct for treatment of restenosis. The initial multicenter experience with Gianturco-Roubin stent is presented, predictors ischemic are identified. METHODS AND RESULTS Data accrued from 639 serial...
Ischemic events after successful thrombolysis have been reported to occur in 18-32% of patients treated for acute myocardial infarction with thrombolytic therapy, and previous studies which received streptokinase suggest that risk early recurrent ischemia is closely related the presence a high-grade residual stenosis. If these are predictable intravenous recombinant tissue-plasminogen activator (rt-PA) then further intervention its use could be targeted at selected patients. One-hundred...

In the ISO 2859 and 3951 series, acceptance sampling plans have relatively large sample size values. For this reason, it is interesting to develop an approach based on Bayesian statistics. present paper, focus developed from perspective of utility, understood as benefits minus costs. This utility rather than risk allows a completely different be developed. The defined via three simple parameters shown how number can calculated by maximizing utility. calculation further refined hierarchical...
One major goal of conservation biology in fragmented landscapes is to identify the attributes habitat networks that influence metapopulation persistence, and thereby determine whether particular areas hold key regional persistence. In Britain, genus Aricia represented by A. agestis south artaxerxes north. We mapped distributions at their range margins, where both species are restricted isolated fragments calcareous grassland containing larval host plant Helianthemum chamaecistus. present...
The use of thrombolytic therapy in myocardial infarction has been associated with a considerable improvement survival rate; however, almost 40% the deaths during hospitalization occur first 24 h. Clinical and angiographic characteristics identified through careful comparison those patients who die early survive may serve as important targets for development new strategies management infarction.Medical records autopsy reports 810 enrolled into four sequential studies evaluating angioplasty...
