Trends in Coronary Revascularization in the United States From 2001 to 2009 Abstract Background There is speculation that the volume of percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) has been decreasing over the past several years. Published studies of PCI volume have evaluated regional or hospital trends, but few have captured national data. This study describes...

Clinical Referral Patterns for Carotid Artery Stenting Versus Carotid Endarterectomy Abstract Background—Carotid artery stenting (CAS) and carotid endarterectomy (CEA) are alternative strategies for stroke prevention in patients with atherosclerotic carotid disease. Although randomized clinical trials are the gold standard for assessing the relative benefits of different...

Value of Age, Creatinine, and Ejection Fraction (ACEF Score) in Assessing Risk in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Interventions in the ‘All-Comers’ LEADERS Trial Abstract Background—The age, creatinine, and ejection fraction (ACEF) score (age/left ventricular ejection fraction+1 if creatinine >2.0 mg/dL) has been established as an effective predictor of clinical outcomes in patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass surgery; however,...

Lo studio PARTNER presentato al TCT: Transcatheter Aortic-Valve Implantation for Aortic Stenosis in Patients Who Cannot Undergo Surgery 
Background
Many patients with severe aortic stenosis and coexisting conditions are not candidates for surgical replacement of the aortic valve. Recently, transcatheter aortic-valve implantation (TAVI) has been suggested as a less invasive treatment for high-risk patients with...

While the propensity-matched analysis narrowly missed its primary end point, secondary end points pointed to significant differences in MI rates that tracked with differences in stent thrombosis "Stockholm, Sweden - A nonrandomized comparison of sirolimus-eluting and everolimus-eluting stents is providing some of the strongest evidence yet that so-called "next-generation" drug-eluting stents (DES) may have an edge in terms of safety and efficacy over the first drug-eluting stent on the market.

Effects of CYP2C19 Genotype on Outcomes of Clopidogrel Treatment These investigators found that in patients with acute coronary syndromes or atrial fibrillation, the effect of clopidogrel was consistent, irrespective of CYP2C19 genotype. An increased benefit of clopidogrel was observed in some carriers of gain-of-function alleles.
