Article Synopsis
- * Interventional cardiology plays a vital role in managing HF, providing various percutaneous treatments for both acute and chronic conditions.
- * There is a lack of robust research on these interventions, highlighting the need for high-quality trials and international registries to better understand which patients benefit the most.
Article Synopsis
- FFR-guided PCI is recommended for treating intermediate coronary lesions, but recent studies have shown mixed results compared to other revascularization methods.
- A meta-analysis of 26 studies with nearly 79,000 patients found that FFR-guided PCI is associated with lower risks of all-cause mortality and myocardial infarction.
- Nonetheless, there were no significant differences in major adverse cardiac events or repeat revascularization rates between FFR-guided and non-physiology-guided approaches.
Background: Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) is a heterogeneous entity with uncertain prognosis.
Objectives: This study sought to develop and validate a prediction model of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and to identify LVNC cases without events during long-term follow-up.
Methods: This is a retrospective longitudinal multicenter cohort study of consecutive patients fulfilling LVNC criteria by echocardiography or cardiovascular magnetic resonance.
