Cobalt Chromium or Stainless Steel Balloon-Expandable Bare Metal Stents for Iliac Occlusive Disease?
J Endovasc Ther
December 2024
Institute for Vascular Research, St. Franziskus Hospital, Münster, Germany.
Background: To compare the performance of a new-generation cobalt-chromium balloon-expandable bare metal stent with a stainless steel platform for the treatment of iliac occlusive disease.
Methods: Consecutive patients treated for symptomatic iliac occlusive disease between 2014 and 2021 with the cobalt-chromium Dynetic-35 or the stainless steel Dynamic platform were retrospectively evaluated. Outcome measures included technical success, device- or procedure-related death, clinically-driven target lesion revascularization (CD-TLR), primary patency, and major index limb amputation up to 12 months.
Correlation Between Lipoprotein(a) and Prognosis for Coronary Artery Disease in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.
Tex Heart Inst J
December 2024
Department of Cardiology, Daping Hospital, The Third Military Medical University (Army Medical University), Chongqing, People's Republic of China.
Background: Elevated lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) is a risk factor for first atherosclerotic thrombosis events, but the role of elevated Lp(a) in secondary prevention is controversial. This study aimed to retrospectively investigate the influence of elevated Lp(a) levels on the prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease.
Methods: The team collected and compared clinical information of patients hospitalized during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Role of Statins in the Clinical and Radiologic Outcomes of Patients with Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysm Undergoing Microsurgery or Endovascular Treatment: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
World Neurosurg
December 2024
Department of Neurological Surgery, Montefiore Medical Center, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx, New York, USA.
Background: The impact of statin pretreatment on outcomes for patients undergoing endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms remains uncertain. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis evaluating the efficacy and safety of statins in this population.
Methods: We searched the PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science databases from inception to August 1, 2024.
Neuro-ophthalmic outcomes after carotid intervention for ocular symptoms.
J Vasc Surg

Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Mayo Clinic Health System, Eau Claire, WI. Electronic address:
Background: The long-term neuro-ophthalmic outcomes after carotid intervention in patients presenting with preoperative visual symptoms vary widely based on the underlying etiology of retinal ischemia and are not well understood.
Methods: We performed a retrospective review of consecutive patients presenting with retinal ischemia who subsequently underwent carotid intervention from January 2018 to December 2022. Patients were classified into three groups (group I: amaurosis fugax/vascular transient monocular vision loss, group II: ocular ischemic syndrome [OIS], and group III: central/branch retinal artery occlusion).
Stent thrombosis in the setting of ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction in the contemporary practice: results from the TOTAL randomized trial.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on identifying risk factors for stent thrombosis (ST) in patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI, using data from the TOTAL trial involving over 10,000 patients.
- Out of the participants, 1.54% experienced ST within a year, with factors like prior heart attacks, number of stents, and certain medications influencing risk.
- The findings suggest that while ST remains a common complication, different predictors exist for ST occurring at different times after the procedure, emphasizing the need for tailored preventive strategies.
