Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated whether fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided complete revascularization improved outcomes compared to treating only the culprit lesion in patients with STEMI or high-risk NSTEMI and multivessel coronary artery disease.
- - A total of 1542 patients participated, with similar rates of adverse event occurrences (death, myocardial infarction, or unplanned revascularization) between the complete revascularization group (19.0%) and the culprit-lesion-only group (20.4%) over a median follow-up of 4.8 years.
- - The findings suggest that FFR-guided complete revascularization did not significantly reduce the risk of major adverse outcomes compared to only addressing the culprit lesion, indicating
Introduction: Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) has been standard treatment for patients with left main coronary artery disease (LMCAD) but percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can be a good alternative. Our aim was to evaluate revascularization of LMCAD-patients in Iceland and treatment changes in recent years. We also assessed the impact of patient background factors on treatment choice and long-term survival.

Our aim was to assess the revascularization treatment of diabetics with CAD in Iceland from 2010-2020, changes in management and long-term survival of patients.
Methods: All patients in Iceland with diabetes and CAD on cardiac catheterization 2010-2020 were included in this retrospective, population-based study.
Background: Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a widespread, often unidentified and hidden public health problem, which has serious consequences. The purpose of this study was to describe and compare the clinical characteristics of women's violence inflicted physical injuries, as presented at Iceland's largest Emergency Department (ED). Three groups were created based on registered reason of injury: (1) IPV, (2) community violence (CV) with a history of IPV (HIPV), and (3) CV with no history of IPV.

The aim of this study was to compare the cause and rate of fatal injuries in the northernmost area of the Nordic countries over a 5-year period.
Methods: In this retrospective cohort, we used the Cause of Death Registries to collate all deaths from 2007 to 2011 due to an external cause of death.
