<h3>Objective:</h3> We compared the degree of systemic inflammation and its relation to angiographic outcomes after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantations. <h3>Methods:</h3> implanted a single DES in 79 stable angina patients (50 men; 60.4 (9.5) years age; sirolimus-eluting (SES), n = 38; paclitaxel-eluting (PES), 41). The high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) interleukin 6 (IL-6) levels were determined before at 24 hours, 72 4 weeks percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). An...
The incidence and prognostic implications of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter valve implantation (TAVI) are controversial, especially for Korean patients. Furthermore, the pattern antithrombotic therapy these is unknown. present study sought to identify impact AF on TAVI demonstrate status patients.A total 660 who underwent AS were recruited from nationwide K-TAVI registry Korea. enrolled stratified into sinus rhythm (SR) groups....
Abstract Objectives : The aims of this study were to identify the efficacy optimal stent expansion (OSE) according Multicenter Ultrasound Stenting in Coronaries Study (MUSIC Study) criteria drug‐eluting (DES) and compare paclitaxel‐eluting (PES) sirolimus‐eluting (SES). Background Although poststent high‐pressure balloon dilatation is proposed after bare metal implantation OSE, defined by MUSIC Study, very little data are available DES. Methods Two hundred fifty patients (M:F = 149:101; age,...
<i>Background:</i> We compared the effect of arterial remodeling on intimal hyperplasia (IH) after implantation a sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting (PES). <i>Methods:</i> The study population consisted patients with positive or intermediate negative remodeling. <i>Results:</i> Sixty-nine had 107 At follow-up, late loss was significantly larger (0.58 ± 0.65 vs. 0.38 0.55 mm; p = 0.026) in IH volume (22.6 26.2 12.4 17.4...
Transcutaneous lower eyelid approaches are associated with a risk of postoperative scarring depending on the distance between incision line and margin. The crease Caucasians corresponds to ridge-shaped fold in young Asians. However, this relationship has not been sufficiently evaluated latter. authors, therefore, investigated location scar or ridge find optimal for line.This study included 60 out 139 patients who underwent inferior orbital wall reconstruction through skin July 2019 June...
Seromas commonly occur or recur after reconstructive surgery in patients with pressure ulcers, often leading to infection, increasing the risk of wound dehiscence and flap necrosis, therefore requiring an additional surgical procedure. Various strategies have been employed treat seroma, such as retaining much fascia possible, using progressive tension sutures, inserting suction drains, utilizing sclerotherapy, applying compression via dressings specialized garments. However, despite these...
Abstract Background Antiplatelet therapy (APT) in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery (NCS) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is still on debate due to its opposite effects which are prevent from cardiovascular events and cause bleeding. There no apparent consensus how determine perioperative APT strategy within 1 year PCI. Therefore, we investigated the risk benefit of NCS Methods Patients PCI with second-generation drug-eluting stents retrospectively included multicenter...
<i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> usually causes an opportunistic infection in immunosuppressed patients. Immunocompetent patients may also develop the central nervous system or lungs, but soft tissue is uncommon, and development of a cryptococcal abscess pubic region particularly rare. A 47-year-old male construction worker with headaches fever visited hospital due to mass pus-like discharge. It was detected 6 months previously, had gradually increased size, tenderness, erythema....
Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infection mainly causes pulmonary disease. However, in 20% to 30% of cases, it also induces various extrapulmonary diseases. Disseminated MAC occasionally occurs immunocompromised patients but very rarely immunocompetent patients. An 80-year-old woman presented with multiple chronic wounds on the scalp that had not improved despite prolonged treatment. A abscess caused by disseminated 4 years ago gone through repeated cycles improvement and aggravation...
