Introduction: Aluminum phosphide is a cheap and commonly used rodenticide that is also an effective solid fumigant and frequently used for grain preservation. The pill contains around 44% inert elements (ammonium carbonate) to avoid disintegration of the tablet, while the rest (about 56%) is aluminum phosphide. Because it is freely available on the market, it is one of the commonly used agents for self-poisoning in different parts of the developing world.

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.

Background: Pretreatment with a P2Y inhibitor may be considered in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) referred to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Intravenous cangrelor is an alternative in this setting, where oral absorption can be hindered. The aim of this study was to compare cangrelor administered after coronary angiography (i.

Background: Transradial access (TRA) is now the default access site for PPCI, but technically is a more challenging approach mostly due to anatomic challenges connected to the RA.

Aims: To assess the differences according to sex in radial artery (RA) access site characteristics during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Material And Methods: All 5092 consecutive STEMI patients from our center in the period from March 2011 until December 2017 were examined.
