Lipid Burden and Efficacy of Preventive PCI of Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Coronary Plaques: Post Hoc Analysis From the PREVENT Trial

BACKGROUND: Preventive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of non–flow-limiting lesions (fractional flow reserve >0.80) that are high-risk plaques has emerged as a potential strategy to reduce cardiac events. However, identifying which lesions derive the greatest benefit fro...

Contrasting Prognostic Value of Discordance Between Resting Distal-to-Aortic Coronary Pressure Ratio and Fractional Flow Reserve in Coronary Artery Disease

BACKGROUND: Discordance between nonhyperemic pressure ratios and fractional flow reserve (FFR), observed in up to 20% of cases, complicates clinical decision-making for coronary revascularization and warrants further investigation of its clinical implications. This study aimed to...

Outcomes of Asian and Caucasian patients with type A aortic intramural haematoma: a multicentre registry analysis

Background Outcomes of aortic intramural haematoma (IMH) have shown disparities between Asian and Caucasian patients. We evaluated the heterogeneity of treatment effects in Asian and Caucasian patients with type A IMH. Methods This multicentre registry included individual patient...
