The potential of triglyceride-glucose index in improving the prediction of post-percutaneous coronary intervention clinical outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Despite percutaneous coronary intervention is the current preferred reperfusion modality, the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) is still high. Currently, GRACE score is used for predicting PCI outcomes. The TyG (triglyceride-glucose) index, a potential predictor based on insulin resistance of cardiovascular disease, has not been considered in the GRACE score.

Impact of fetal pulmonary valvuloplasty in in-utero critical pulmonary stenosis: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Untreated critical pulmonary stenosis may develop into pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum, which is associated with a high risk of morbidity and mortality both in fetuses and neonates. In this meta-analysis, we sought to discover the potential of fetal pulmonary valvuloplasty that might affect patients' survival compared to other available procedures.

Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted based on the PRISMA guideline.
