Comparative Effectiveness of Complete Revascularization Strategies in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction and Multivessel Disease: A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis.

Whether fractional flow reserve (FFR) should be available for revascularization in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel disease (MVD) is controversial. We aimed to compare the efficacy of various complete revascularization (CR) regimens for STEMI patients with MVD. The PubMed and Cochrane Library databases and clinicaltrial.

Bleeding risks with novel oral anticoagulants especially rivaroxaban versus aspirin: a meta-analysis.

Background: This pairwise meta-analysis determines the difference in bleeding risks associated with the use of novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) and aspirin.

Methods: PubMed, the Cochrane Library database, clinicaltrial.gov , and related studies were searched for randomized control trials (RCTs) comparing NOAC and aspirin published between January 1, 2000 and May 10, 2021.

Relationship Between the Eosinophil/Monocyte Ratio and Prognosis in Decompensated Heart Failure: A Retrospective Study.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the value of the eosinophil/monocyte ratio (EMR) for predicting the prognosis of decompensated heart failure (HF).

Patients And Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. We included adults (≥18 years old) diagnosed with decompensated HF for whom EMR data were available.

Acute Myocardial Infarction Detection Using Deep Learning-Enabled Electrocardiograms.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with a poor prognosis. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and early intervention of the culprit lesion are of extreme importance. Therefore, we developed a neural network algorithm in this study to automatically diagnose AMI from 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs).

The prognostic value of the triglyceride glucose index in patients with chronic heart failure and type 2 diabetes: A retrospective cohort study.

Aims: The triglyceride glucose (TyG) index is a marker of insulin resistance. However, the prognostic value thereof in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and type 2 diabetes remains unclear.

Methods: This study included patients diagnosed with CHF and type 2 diabetes in Fuwai Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Shenzhen, from January 2017 to July 2019.

Are activated B cells involved in the process of myocardial fibrosis after acute myocardial infarction? An in vivo experiment.

Background: Inflammatory cells infiltrate into the ischemic and hypoxic myocardial tissue after myocardial infarction. B cells gather at the site of myocardial injury and secrete cytokines to regulate immune inflammation and fiber repair processes.

Methods: The animal experiment used ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) artery of C57BL/6 mice to establish a mouse acute myocardial infarction (AMI) model to observe changes in activated B cells and cytokines at different time points.

Effect and safety of antithrombotic therapies for secondary prevention after acute coronary syndrome: a network meta-analysis.

Background: Dual antiplatelet therapy is a standard protocol for secondary prevention after acute coronary syndrome, but despite a variety of new dual antithrombotic strategies, there is a dearth of studies evaluating the effects and safety of some popular therapies. This study used a network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of all available antithrombotic therapies.

Methods: PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane library databases were searched for randomized controlled trials, published up to July 1, 2017, that evaluated the efficacy of antithrombotic therapy in acute coronary syndrome treatment.
