Background: The management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has improved dramatically over the past 3 decades and is evolving. Percutaneous coronary intervention is an alternative means of achieving coronary revascularization. Previous studies comparing the published literature on drug-coated balloon (DCB) and drug-eluting stents have drawn divergent conclusions. We perform a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of DCB and drug-eluting stent in the management of AMI.
Methods: This systematic review was registered in the PROSPERO network (registration number: CRD42023397266). We will follow the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis Protocol to accomplish the systematic review protocol. A systematic search will be conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, and Weipu Database without any language restrictions from their inception to February 2022. The risk of bias will be assessed independently by 2 authors using parameters defined in the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions criteria. Statistical analysis will be performed using the STATA13.0 software (IBM, USA).
Results: The results of this systematic review and meta-analysis will be publicly available and published in a peer-reviewed journal.
Conclusion: The results of the study will provide the evidence for the application of DCB in the treatment of AMI.

Background: Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) and its related vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play a significant role in atherosclerosis and their targeting is a strategic approach that may affect multiple pathways influencing disease progression. This study aimed to perform a systematic review to reveal current evidence on the role of HIF-1α and VEGF immunophenotypes with other prognostic markers as potential biomarkers of atherosclerosis prognosis and treatment efficacy.
Methods: We performed a systematic review of the current literature to explore the role of HIF-1α and VEGF protein expression along with the relation to the prognosis and therapeutic strategies of atherosclerosis.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common chronic inflammatory skin disorder globally. Crisaborole, a nonsteroidal topical phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor (PDE4i), has been utilized in treating AD. Crisaborole regulates the production of inflammatory cytokines, which are usually overactive among AD patients.

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been reported to confer an increased risk of natural premature death. Telomere erosion caused by oxidative stress is a common consequence in age-related diseases. However, whether telomere length (TL) and oxidative indicators are significantly changed in ASD patients compared with controls remains controversial.

Purpose: To perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the outcomes of Anaconda fenestrated endograft for the treatment of complex abdominal aortic aneurysms (cAAA).
Material And Methods: A systematic search of all the literature reported until May 2024 was performed according to the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. The pooled 30-day mortality rate, technical success rate, reintervention rate as well as bridging stent occlusion rate, and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using fixed or random effect methods.
