Quantitative coronary angiography vs intravascular ultrasonography to guide drug-eluting stent implantation - a randomized clinical trial
21 Mar 2024
The trial aimed to establish the non-inferiority of QCA-guided PCI compared to IVUS-guided PCI with respect to the primary endpoint of TLF at 12 months, defined as a composite of cardiac death, target vessel MI, or ischemia-driven target lesion revascularization.

Non–vitamin K antagonist versus vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulant agents after transcatheter aortic valve replacement
19 Mar 2024
This study demonstrates that, at 5 years post TAVI in patients with an indication for OAC, the net clinical benefit did not differ between the VKA and DOAC groups.

Ticagrelor vs Clopidogrel for complex percutaneous coronary intervention in chronic coronary syndrome
15 Mar 2024
The results of this sub-analysis of the ALPHEUS trial show that complex PCI criteria are present in a large percentage of patients with chronic coronary syndrome and are associated with higher rates of both periprocedural events and MACE than non-complex PCI.

Medically treated nonischemic thin-cap fibroatheroma lesions versus fractional flow reserve-guided complete revascularization in diabetic patients
27 Feb 2024
This sub-analysis denotes that medically treated diabetic patients with FFR-negative, TCFA-carrying target lesions were associated with a higher rate event rate compared to angiographically similar ischemic target lesions that underwent revascularization.

Artificial intelligence-derived risk score for mortality in secondary mitral regurgitation treated by transcatheter edge-to-edge repair: the EuroSMR risk score
13 Feb 2024
The study aim was to develop and validate a novel score for prediction of 1-year mortality and clinical outcomes through artificial intelligence (AI) application in patients undergoing M-TEER.

Coronary physiology guidance vs conventional angiography for optimization of percutaneous coronary intervention: the AQVA-II Trial
24 Jan 2024
The primary aim of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of physiology-guided PCI, using either angiography or microcatheter-derived FFR, over conventional angiography-based PCI in complex high-risk indicated procedures (CHIPs) in obtaining a higher FFR post-PCI.
