  • DCB in STEMI: multicentre international registry
  • Safety of early discharge using index of microcirculatory resistance after primary PCI
  • Safety and effectiveness of coronary intravascular lithotripsy in ACS patients: real-world registry data
  • Rapid inflation-deflation stenting vs. pressure optimisation protocol in primary PCI: RAPID-POP randomised controlled trial
