It is common to see patients with atherosclerotic coronary disease and peripheral arterial disease in routine clinical practice. One needs to have a comprehensive and integrated multi-speciality approach and panvascular revascularization in such patients. We report a 54-year-old diabetic hypertensive male with extensive atherosclerotic coronary and peripheral arterial disease, who presented with congestive heart failure, claudication of both lower limbs and mesenteric ischemia. He underwent successful percutaneous panvascular revascularization of coronary, renal, mesenteric, aorto-iliac and superficial femoral arteries. Long-term patency of all the stents was also documented.

Background: There is a lack of evidence regarding the association between plasma phenylacetylglutamine levels and lesion severity and clinical prognosis in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with multivessel coronary disease (MVCD). This study aims to investigate the potential of phenylacetylglutamine as a biomarker for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) of patients with STEMI and MVCD.
Methods And Results: Clinical data and blood samples were collected from 631 patients with STEMI and MVCD, who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Background: This study aimed to investigate the value of the inflammatory prognostic score (IPS) system for predicting the risk of all-cause major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) and cardiac-related MACEs in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods: Overall, 1384 patients with ACS who underwent PCI between January 2016 and December 2018 were consecutively enrolled. Demographic characteristics and related laboratory results for 11 inflammatory markers were collected.

Background: The optimal duration of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for patients with coronary multi-vessel disease (MVD) who have received drug-eluting stents (DES) remains unclear.
Hypothesis And Methods: The Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Patients with Coronary Multi-Vessel Disease (DAPT-MVD) study is a multicenter, open-label, randomized controlled trial designed to assess the efficacy and safety of extended DAPT in MVD patients 12 months following DES implantation. We plan to enroll 8250 patients across approximately 100 sites in China.

Purpose: To elucidate the predictive values of adipocytokines in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Patients And Methods: Overall, 297 patients with ACS were consecutively enrolled in this prospective cohort study between June 2015 and July 2017 and completed follow-up with a median follow-up time of 6.5 years.
