Patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention react differently to antiplatelet drugs. Those with low responsiveness clopidogrel have a higher risk of cardiac ischemic events. The goal this study is conduct head-to-head comparison the safety and effectiveness intensified therapies (either double-dose [DOUBLE] or adjunctive cilostazol [TRIPLE]) conventional strategy (STANDARD) in patients after intervention.In single-center, randomized, controlled trial, we used thromboelastography,...
Abstract Background Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an inherited metabolic disorder with a high level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and the worse prognosis. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, emerging tool to reflect insulin resistance (IR), positively associated higher risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in healthy individuals, but value TyG index has never been evaluated FH patients. This study aimed determine association between glucose indicators, (IR)...
Arrhythmia is a common problem of irregular heartbeats, which may lead to serious complications such as stroke and even mortality. Due the paroxysmal nature arrhythmia, its long-term monitoring early detection in daily household scenarios, instead depending on ECG examination only available during clinical visits, are critical importance. While ambulatory Holter wearables like smartwatches have been used, they still inconvenient interfere with users' activities. In this paper, we bridge gap...
Background The triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) is a valuable marker for predicting adverse cardiovascular events in diabetic patients. However, nondiabetic patients, whether the TyG independently related to poor prognosis remains unclear. This cohort study assessed association of with future risk subjects who received percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods We consecutively enrolled 5,489 patients underwent PCI. All experimental were divided into three groups based on their...
