Background . Circulating microRNAs are appealing biomarkers to monitor several processes underlying cardiovascular diseases. Platelets a major source for circulating microRNAs. Interestingly, the levels of specific were reported correlate with level platelet activation. The aim present study was test whether treatment novel antiplatelet agent, ticagrelor, is associated modulation in key platelet-derived Methods and Results Patients randomly selected from those participating SHIFT-OVER study,...
Aims The purpose of the EASTBOURNE registry is to evaluate immediate and long-term clinical performance a novel sirolimus-coated balloon (SCB) in real-world population patients with coronary artery disease. We here present prespecified interim analysis after enrollment first 642 who obtained 1-year follow-up. Methods prospective, international, multicenter, all-comer investigator-driven registry, which enrolling consecutive treated SCB at 42 European Asiatic centers. Primary study endpoint...
The initial data of the International Study on Acute Coronary Syndromes - ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction COVID-19 showed in Europe a remarkable reduction primary percutaneous coronary intervention procedures and higher in-hospital mortality during phase pandemic as compared with prepandemic period. aim current study was to provide final results registry, subsequently extended outside larger inclusion period (up June 2020) longer follow-up 30 days).This is retrospective multicentre...
Abstract Background It has been suggested the COVID pandemic may have indirectly affected treatment and outcome of STEMI patients, by avoidance or significant delays in contacting emergency system. No data reported on impact diabetes that was therefore aim current subanalysis conducted patients included International Study Acute Coronary Syndromes–ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (ISACS-STEMI) COVID-19. Methods The ISACS-STEMI COVID-19 is a retrospective registry performed European centers...
We aimed to compare intracoronary (IC) epinephrine versus conventional treatments alone in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction and refractory coronary no-reflow during primary percutaneous intervention (PPCI).Thirty consecutive severe (TIMI 0-1, MBG 0-1) PPCI were prospectively included after initial failure of treatments. Conventional used both groups IC nitrates, thrombectomy. Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors adenosine. Patients received or no epinephrine.Intracoronary...
Background: Several scores have been developed to facilitate risk stratification and early discharge following primary angioplasty, particularly the Zwolle Risk Score (ZRS). However, validation in large-sized studies is still lacking. Therefore, aim of current study was validate use ZRS a contemporary global population, including patients who were treated during SARS-CoV-2 pandemic enrolled large intercontinental observational study. Methods: The ISACS-STEMI COVID-19 large-scale...
To expand the paucity of data on efficacy various drug-eluting stents in diabetic patients.Type 2 patients treated our institution from October 2005 to January 2007 presenting with de novo lesions native coronary arteries were randomly assigned sirolimus-eluting (Cypher group; n=76); paclitaxel-eluting (Taxus n=75); and everolimus-eluting (Endeavor n=75). Poor metabolic control (HbA1c >7% low-density lipoprotein cholesterol >100 mg/dL) microvascular complications (retinopathy and/or...
While bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS) are increasingly used in clinical practice, their behaviour when post-dilated beyond recommended maximum overexpansion diameter remains sparsely documented. We aimed to test the of BVS scaffold vitro and evaluate impact excessive oversizing on focal point support.We examined post-expansion (3.0 mm 3.5 Absorb BVS; Abbott Vascular, Santa Clara, CA, USA) after with non-compliant (NC) balloons increasing diameters. After each step, were measured...
Abstract Background The outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in diabetic patients are still suboptimal, and it is unclear if might derive a benefit from the use drug-coated balloons. Aims To evaluate impact diabetes mellitus on undergoing PCI with sirolimus-coated balloon (SCB) MagicTouch (Concept Medical, India). Methods We conducted subgroup analysis prospective, multicenter, investigator-initiated EASTBOURNE registry, evaluating performance SCB without diabetes. study...
Background— Ticagrelor outperforms clopidogrel in preventing cardiovascular events acute coronary syndrome. Despite the inclusion of a loading dose Platelet Inhibition and Patient Outcomes (PLATO) trial for all patients randomized to ticagrelor, it may not be necessary receiving ongoing therapy. The aim present study was assess whether ticagrelor is associated with further platelet inhibition during switch from syndrome antiplatelet treatment. Methods Results— Fifty aspirin treatment were...
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used to investigate integrity and expansion of bioresorbable drug-eluting scaffolds (BVS) after high-pressure postdilation (HPPD).Because concerns about the risk BVS damage, not recommended applied in existing randomized studies most registries. Recent real world data suggest incomplete cause higher rates thrombosis. In vivo confirmation safety high pressure is paramount importance.Data from final OCT examination consecutive implanted BVS, postdilated...
