Article Abstract

This review aimed to highlight some important points derived from the presentations of the European Respiratory Society 2021 Virtual International Congress by a committee formed by the Early Career Task Group of the Turkish Thoracic Society. We summarized a wide range of topics including current developments of respiratory diseases and provided an overview of important and striking topics of the congress. Our primary motivation was to give some up-to-date information and new developments discussed during congress especially for the pulmonologists who did not have a chance to follow the congress. This review also committed an opportunity to get an overview of the newest data in the diverse fields of respiratory medicine such as post-coronavirus disease 2019, some new interventional and technologic developments related to respiratory health, and new treatment strategies.

Although guidelines strongly recommend low levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), these goals are not achieved in many patients. We present expert recommendations for the in-hospital and post-discharge management of lipid-lowering therapy in ACS patients in Türkiye. A group of expert cardiologists comprising members of the Turkish Society of Cardiology and leading lipidologists who have all worked in national cardiology lipid working groups for at least 4 years, considered the optimal approach to lipid management in ACS patients in Türkiye, taking into account Turkish healthcare infrastructure and issues from real-world practice.

  • Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) is essential for managing acute and chronic coronary syndromes, helping to lower mortality rates and prevent further complications.
  • A study followed 1500 patients on a specific fixed-dose DAPT (ASA + clopidogrel) to evaluate its effectiveness and safety, primarily focusing on hospitalization and bleeding risks.
  • Results indicated that the fixed-dose combination therapy was effective, with low rates of hospitalization for cardiovascular issues and minimal bleeding complications in appropriately selected patients.
