Despite significant advancements in drug-eluting stent technology, in-stent restenosis (ISR) still occurs in approximately 10 % of patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, remaining a significant global health concern. The mechanisms underlying ISR are complex and multifactorial, yet recent innovations in intravascular imaging and functional assessment have substantially advanced our understanding, enabling more targeted and individualized therapeutic strategies. This review synthesizes the latest insights into ISR, emphasizing the pivotal roles of advanced imaging modalities, such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound, and functional assessments like quantitative flow ratio and optical flow ratio in guiding ISR management.

Background: Cholesterol crystals (CCs) are recognized as a risk factor for vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque rupture (PR) and major adverse cardiovascular events. However, their predictive factors and association with plaque vulnerability in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remain insufficiently explored. Therefore, This study aims to investigate the association between CCs and plaque vulnerability in culprit lesions of AMI patients, identify the factors influencing CCs formation, and develop a predictive model for CCs.

Objective: Patients with infectious intracranial aneurysms (IIAs) have high mortality rates. Sepsis is an important condition that induces IIA. Smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypic switching may have a critical effect on sepsis-induced IIA, but its role remains unclear.

Background: In-stent neoatherosclerosis (ISNA) is identified as the primary cause of in-stent restenosis (ISR). The systemic immune inflammation index (SII), shows promise for predicting post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) adverse cardiovascular events and is associated with coronary stenosis severity; however, its specific relationship with ISNA remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between the SII and ISNA after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation.

Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has become the primary treatment for coronary artery disease. However, while PCI effectively addresses severe stenosis or occlusive lesions in target vessels, the progression of non-target vessel plaque remains a critical determinant of long-term patient prognosis.

Aims: The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of non-target vascular plaque progression on prognosis after PCI for ISR.

Background: Stent malapposition (SM) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for myocardial infarction continues to present significant clinical challenges. In recent years, machine learning (ML) models have demonstrated potential in disease risk stratification and predictive modeling.

Hypothesis: ML models based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging, laboratory tests, and clinical characteristics can predict the occurrence of SM.

Background: Neoatherosclerosis (NA) is associated with stent failure. However, systematic studies on the manifestations of NA and neovascularization (NV) at different stages after drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation are lacking. Moreover, the relationship between NA and NV in in-stent restenosis (ISR) has not been reported.

Acute coronary syndrome (ACS), a significant cardiovascular disease threat, has garnered increased focus concerning its etiological mechanisms. Thin-cap fibroatheroma (TCFA) are central to ACS pathogenesis, characterized by lipid-rich plaques, profuse foam cells, cholesterol crystals, and fragile fibrous caps predisposed to rupture. While TCFAs may be latent and asymptomatic, their pivotal role in ACS risk is undeniable.

Background: The relationship between neointimal characteristics of in-stent restenosis (ISR) and periprocedural myocardial injury (PMI) remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between PMI and neointimal characteristics of ISR by using optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Methods: This was a retrospective study.

The morphological characteristics of in-stent restenosis (ISR) in relation to varying degrees of area stenosis have not been comprehensively examined. This study aimed to explore the tissue characteristics of patients experiencing ISR with different degrees of area stenosis through the utilization of optical coherence tomography (OCT). In total, 230 patients with ISR who underwent OCT were divided into the following three groups: area stenosis (AS) < 70% (n = 26); 70-80% (n = 119) and AS ≥ 80% (n = 85).

Neoatherosclerosis (NA) is a significant contributor to late stent failure; however, predictors of late in-stent restenosis (ISR) with NA have not been systematically reported. This study aimed to identify predictors of NA incidence and plaque vulnerability in patients with late ISR and the role of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in this process. A total of 216 patients with 216 lesions who underwent optical coherence tomography (OCT) before interventional procedure for late drug-eluting stent ISR were enrolled and divided into NA and non-NA groups based on OCT findings.

Background: Monocyte-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) is an independent predictor of atherosclerosis and in-stent restenosis (ISR). However, the association between MHR and the incidence of in-stent neoatherosclerosis (ISNA) remains to be validated.

Methods: This study included 216 patients with acute coronary syndrome who had 220 ISR lesions and had undergone optical coherence tomography (OCT).
