In-stent restenosis (ISR) still occurs after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Few studies have compared the outcomes of PCI for de novo stenosis with those of PCI for ISR, and the results are conflicting. The present study aimed to conduct this comparison.

- * In a trial with 455 patients, those who received PCI had a lower rate of major adverse cardiac events (26%) compared to those with conservative treatment (36%) at a two-year follow-up.
- * However, the PCI group experienced a higher rate of bleeding events (28% vs. 20%) and had some minor procedure-related complications, indicating that while PCI may reduce cardiac risks, it also carries potential safety concerns.
Background: Target lesion failure (TLF) remains an issue with contemporary drug-eluting stents. The dual-therapy sirolimus-eluting and CD34 antibody-coated COMBO stent (DTS) was designed to improve early healing.
Aims: We aimed to compare the 3-year outcomes of the DTS and the sirolimus-eluting Orsiro stent (SES) in all-comer patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention.
Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of the dual-therapy CD34 antibody-covered sirolimus-eluting Combo stent (DTS) and the sirolimus-eluting Orsiro stent (O-SES) in patients with and without acute coronary syndrome (ACS) included in the SORT OUT X study.
Background: The incidence of target lesion failure (TLF) after treatment with modern drug-eluting stents has been reported to be significantly higher in patients with ACS when compared to patients without ACS. Whether the results from the SORT OUT X study apply to patients with and without ACS remains unknown.
Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of the dual therapy CD34 antibody-covered sirolimus-eluting Combo stent (DTS) and the sirolimus-eluting Orsiro stent (SES) in patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM) included in the Scandinavian Organization for Randomized Trials with Clinical Outcome (SORT OUT) X study.
Background: The incidence of target lesion failure (TLF) after treatment with modern drug-eluting stents has been reported to be significantly higher in patients with DM when compared to patients without DM. Thus, whether the results from the SORT OUT X study apply to patients with and without DM remains unknown.
