Background— Atherosclerotic plaques progress in a highly individual manner. The purposes of the Prediction Progression Coronary Artery Disease and Clinical Outcome Using Vascular Profiling Shear Stress Wall Morphology (PREDICTION) Study were to determine role local hemodynamic vascular characteristics coronary plaque progression relate changes clinical events. Methods Results— profiling, using angiography intravascular ultrasound, was used reconstruct each artery calculate endothelial shear...
BACKGROUND Histological examination of the effects balloon angioplasty have been described from in vitro experiments and a limited number pathologic specimens. Intravascular ultrasound imaging permits real time cross-sectional observation effect dilation on atherosclerotic plaque vivo. METHODS AND RESULTS The morphological coronary were visualized at 66 lesions 47 patients immediately after dilatation with an intravascular catheter. Cross-sectional images obtained 30 frames per second as...
While primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has significantly contributed to improve the mortality in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction even cardiogenic shock, PCI is a standard of care most Japanese institutions. Whereas there are high numbers available facilities providing Japan, no clear guidelines focusing on procedural aspect standardized care. Whilst updated for management acute were recently published by European Society Cardiology, following major...
Background: The aim of this study was to elucidate the time course atorvastatin-induced changes in vulnerable plaque using angioscopy and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). Methods Results: Fifty-seven hypercholesterolemic patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) were treated atorvastatin (10-20 mg/day) for 80 weeks then plaques evaluated IVUS. Angioscopic images classified into 6 grades (0-5) based on yellow color intensity. A 20-mm segment containing angioscopically-identified also...
Concerns regarding radiation exposure and its effects during pregnancy are often quoted as an important barrier preventing many women from pursuing a career in Interventional Cardiology. Finding the true risk of performing cardiac catheterization procedures can be challenging guidelines for have been inadequate. The Women Innovations group Cardiologists with endorsement Society Cardiovascular Angiography Interventions aim to provide guidance this publication by describing pregnant physicians...
Background The prognostic impact of optical coherence tomography-diagnosed culprit lesion morphology in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has not been systematically examined real-world settings. Methods and Results This investigator-initiated, prospective, multicenter, observational study was conducted at 22 Japanese hospitals to identify the prevalence underlying ACS causes (plaque rupture [PR], plaque erosion [PE], calcified nodules [CN]) their on clinical outcomes. Patients with diagnosed...
In the present study, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) morphologic appearance of coronary atherosclerotic plaque associated with focal spasm was prospectively studied in 45 patients or without provoked by ergonovine acetylcholine. The percent area and arc were determined from IVUS images at sites spasm. Calcified lesion defined as presence high-intensity echo acoustic shadowing. Twenty-three had angiographic narrowing >75% demonstrated these 23 sites. 22 spasm, 18 lesions 17 remaining 5 did...
Although previous studies have demonstrated that even quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) can not provide accurate disease morphology, there has been a systematic comparison of morphology determined by QCA and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), particularly in Japanese patients. Therefore, the present study prospectively examined patients multicenter cooperative study. A total 491 sites from 562 (446 men, 116 women; mean age, 64±11 years) who underwent interventions were enrolled. The...
