Unlabelled: Diabetes mellitus is associated with significant cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The authors describe the clinical and angiographic profile of a diabetic population undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention, with one-year follow-up.

Methods: We retrospectively studied 769 patients (241 diabetic [D] and 528 nondiabetic [ND]) in terms of clinical and demographic characteristics, angiography and angioplasty data, and medical therapy, and analyzed the composite endpoint of adverse cardiac events at one month and one year.

Results: Women, older mean age, hypertension, dyslipidemia, previous stroke and renal insufficiency were more prevalent in the D group. It also had more patients with left ventricular dysfunction, multivessel disease and complex coronary lesions. A significantly higher number of stents per patient and more drug-eluting stents were implanted in this group. Occurrence of the composite endpoint at one-year follow-up was significantly higher in diabetic patients (D = 23.6% vs. ND = 15.9%; p = 0.012), and one-year total mortality was 5.8% in the D group vs. 2.3% in the ND group (p = 0.012).

Conclusion: Even with aggressive percutaneous and pharmacological management, diabetes mellitus still has an adverse long-term prognosis.

Diffuse coronary artery disease (CAD) impacts the immediate hemodynamic and clinical outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We evaluated whether the diffuse pattern of CAD derived from angiographic Quantitative flow ratio (QFR) impacts the immediate hemodynamic outcome post-PCI and the medium term predicted vessel-oriented composite endpoint (VOCE). Paired pre-procedure QFRs were assessed in 503 patients and 1022 vessels in the Multivessel TALENT (MVT) trial.

Background: Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is a major complication of stroke. However, data about the predictors of PSE in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing mechanical thrombectomy are limited.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between intraoperative angiographic signs and PSE risk in patients with anterior circulation AIS who underwent mechanical thrombectomy.

Objective: Many patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIAs) underrepresented or excluded from previous randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing surgery with endovascular treatment (EVT) are still considered for surgical clipping, but the best management of these patients remains unknown.

Methods: The International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial-2 was a randomized trial comparing surgical versus EVT of RIAs considered for surgical clipping, despite the results of previous RCTs, and also eligible for EVT. The primary endpoint was death or dependency according to the modified Rankin Scale score (mRS score > 2) at 1 year.

Objective: Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of hydrogel-coated coils (HGCs) to achieve the composite endpoint of decreased recanalization rates and greater safety. Herein, the authors aimed to assess the true ability of second-generation HGCs to prevent recanalization.

Methods: This randomized controlled study, the HYBRID (Hydrocoil Versus Bare Platinum Coil in Recanalization Imaging Data) trial, comparing HGCs with bare platinum coils (BPCs), was conducted in 43 Japanese institutions.

Objective: Clazosentan is a recently approved endothelin receptor antagonist indicated for the prevention of vasospasm and related complications following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). To date, no direct, head-to-head comparison between clazosentan and nimodipine has been conducted. In this study, we indirectly assessed the efficacy and safety of these two drugs in preventing vasospasm and its associated outcomes after aSAH.
