Background: Few data are available on polymer-free drug-eluting stents in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Aims: We aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of a polymer-free amphilimus-eluting stent (AES), using a reservoir-based technology for drug delivery, compared with a biodegradable-polymer everolimus-eluting stent (EES).
Methods: This was a randomised, investigator-initiated, assessor-blind, non-inferiority trial conducted at 14 hospitals in Italy (ClinicalTrials.
Background: Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) represent a deep revolution of the therapeutic approach to heart failure (HF), preventing its insurgence but also improving the management of the disease and slowing its natural progression. To date, few studies have explored the effectiveness of SGLT2i and, in particular, Dapagliflozin in a real-world population. Therefore, in this observational prospective study, we evaluated Dapagliflozin's effectiveness in a real-world HF population categorized in the different hemodynamic profiles.

Aim: To assess the efficacy and safety of autologous cell therapy (ACT) in patients with ischemic diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The present meta-analysis was designed to support the development of the Italian Guidelines for the Treatment of Diabetic Foot Syndrome (DFS).
Methods: A Medline and Embase search were performed up to Feb 1st, 2024 collecting all RCTs including diabetic patients or reporting subgroup analyses on diabetic patients with ischemic foot ulcers comparing ACT with placebo/no therapy/standard of care (SoC), with a duration of at least 26 weeks.
Article Synopsis
- Mitral annular calcification is common, but isolated tricuspid annular calcification is rare, as illustrated by a case study of a 73-year-old male.
- The patient experienced progressive breathing difficulties and leg swelling, with echocardiography showing a crescent-shaped mass at the tricuspid annulus, confirmed as calcific by CT scans.
- The patient's existing conditions, like hypertension and severe kyphoscoliosis, may have contributed to early tricuspid degeneration, leading to significant calcification and subsequent heart issues.
