Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Versus Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Patients With Left Main Disease With or Without Diabetes: Findings From a Pooled Analysis of 4 Randomized Clinical Trials

Circulation

BACKGROUND:Diabetes may be associated with differential outcomes in patients undergoing left main coronary revascularization with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). PintHR=0.87) diabetes. and 9.9%) compared with those without (2.1%

Impact of Diabetes on Outcomes in Left Main Coronary Revascularization: PCI vs. CABG

Cardiology Update

Left main coronary artery disease (CAD) and diabetes pose significant challenges in cardiovascular care, often leading to adverse outcomes. However, the comparative long-term efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with these conditions remains unclear.

Effect of empagliflozin on total myocardial infarction events by type and additional coronary outcomes: insights from the randomized EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial

Cardiovascular Diabetology

Background The effect of empagliflozin, a sodium-glucose-co-transporter-2 inhibitor, on risk for myocardial infarction has not been fully characterized. MIs could be assigned to > 1 type.

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

The overall prevalence of arterial hypertension was 33.2%, hyperlipidemia, 26.9%, smoking, 17.8%, and diabetes, 3.9%. of the patients were diagnosed with non-ST elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), 36.8% The left anterior descending artery (LAD) was the most common culprit lesion in 51% of the patients.

Non-coronary atherosclerosis: a marker of poor prognosis in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Introduction The presence of non-coronary atherosclerosis (NCA) in patients with coronary artery disease is associated with a poor prognosis. We have studied whether NCA is also a predictor of poorer outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Abstract 4148106: Hemophilia and Cardiovascular disease in the United States: Prevalence, Risk factors, and outcomes.

Circulation

The secondary outcomes comprise the odds of adverse events, including myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), occlusive atherosclerotic disease, percutaneous coronary intervention, and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)., The hemophilia cohort was slightly older (63.2[16.8]

Propensity score analysis of red cell distribution width to serum calcium ratio in acute myocardial infarction as a predictor of in-hospital mortality

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Objective Red cell distribution width (RDW) and serum calcium (Ca) levels are predictors of in-hospital mortality in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. However, their sensitivity and specificity are limited. Results A total of 4,105 ICU-admitted AMI patients were analyzed.
