Introduction: This pooled analysis was conducted to assess the clinical safety and performance of the Supra family (Sahajanand Medical Technologies Ltd., Surat, India) of sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) including ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) from two real-world all-comers Indian registries at 1 year.
Methods: We evaluated 1,824 patients with ACS who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with the Supra family of SES from two real-world Indian registries (891 patients from T-Flex registry and 933 patients from Tetriflex real-world registry).
Melioidosis is an uncommon bacterial infection that is endemic to countries like Southeast Asia and Northern Australia but less common in temperate zones than when seen in returned travelers. This disease can affect almost every organ, with the lung being the most common organ to be involved. Here, we present a 21-year-old diabetic male who came with complaints of fever, nonproductive cough, and sore throat with grade III-IV shortness of breath.

We performed a pooled analysis of high-risk subgroup on patient-level data from the T-Flex registry (1,203 patients) and a real-world Indian registry (1,269 patients), with the aim of assessing one-year safety and clinical performance of ultrathin strut biodegradable polymer-coated Supra family of sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) (Sahajanand Medical Technologies Limited, Surat, India) in the real-world, all-comer population. Method We pooled the following high-risk subgroups data from two all-comer registries: female gender (n=678), diabetes mellitus (n=852), multivessel disease (n=406), total occlusions (n=420), long lesions (≥28 mm) (n=1241), and small vessels (≤2.

The Tetriflex (Sahajanand Medical Technology, Surat, India) is a newer-generation, ultrathin (60 µm) biodegradable polymer-coated sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) designed with a unique long dual Z-link on a cobalt-chromium alloy. The present registry aimed to evaluate the safety and clinical outcomes of the Tetriflex SES at 6-month post-implantation.

It may be present with or without associated anomalies. Patients with CCTGA are usually diagnosed at early stages of life due to associated anomalies, but they may even remain asymptomatic till later decades of their life.
