Impact of alirocumab on plaque regression and haemodynamics of non-culprit arteries in patients with acute myocardial infarction: a prespecified substudy of the PACMAN-AMI trial
12 Jul 2023
This is a trial aiming to assess QFR and 3D-QCA DS% of all the non-infarct related arteries (IRA) with 3D-QCA DS% in all patients presenting with STEMI/NSTEMI and undergoing coronary angiography.

Infarct‐related artery as a donor of collaterals in ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction with concomitant chronic total occlusion: challenge of the double‐jeopardy thesis
30 May 2023
This study challenges the double-jeopardy assumption as the main cause of adverse outcome in STEMI with non-IRA CTO, as a collateral origin distal from the acute IRA occlusion was associated with a significantly better prognosis than with a proximal origin.

What is the best contemporary interventional management of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest?
17 May 2023 – From EuroPCR 2023
Thomas Keeble and Marko Noc tackle the tricky question of how to deal with a patient with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
While STEMI patients should almost invariably go directly to the cathlab, the situation seems less clear-cut for non-ST-elevation patients, for whom a genuinely personalized approach needs to be proposed.
