Background: Insulin resistance and chronic kidney disease are both associated with increased coronary artery disease risk. Many formulae estimating glucose disposal rate in type 1 diabetes infer insulin sensitivity from clinical data. We compare associations and performance relative to traditional risk factors and kidney disease severity between three formulae estimating the glucose disposal rate and coronary artery disease in people with type 1 diabetes.
Methods: The baseline glucose disposal rate was estimated by three (Williams, Duca, and Januszewski) formulae in FinnDiane Study participants and related to subsequent incidence of coronary artery disease, by baseline kidney status.
Results: In 3517 adults with type 1 diabetes, during median (IQR) 19.3 (14.6, 21.4) years, 539 (15.3%) experienced a coronary artery disease event, with higher rates with worsening baseline kidney status. Correlations between the three formulae estimating the glucose disposal rate were weak, but the lowest quartile of each formula was associated with higher incidence of coronary artery disease. Importantly, only the glucose disposal rate estimation by Williams showed a linear association with coronary artery disease risk in all analyses. Of the three formulae, Williams was the strongest predictor of coronary artery disease. Only age and diabetes duration were stronger predictors. The strength of associations between estimated glucose disposal rate and CAD incidence varied by formula and kidney status.
Conclusions: In type 1 diabetes, estimated glucose disposal rates are associated with subsequent coronary artery disease, modulated by kidney disease severity. Future research is merited regarding the clinical usefulness of estimating the glucose disposal rate as a coronary artery disease risk factor and potential therapeutic target.

Purpose: Over time, transit time flow measurement (TTFM) has proven itself as a simple and effective tool for intra-operative evaluation of coronary artery bypass grafts (CABGs). However, metrics used to screen for possible technical error show considerable spread, preventing the definition of sharp cut-off values to distinguish between patent, questionable, and failed grafts. The simulation study presented in this paper aims to quantify this uncertainty for commonly used patency metrics, and to identify the most important physiological parameters influencing it.

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy outcomes of the traditional Judkins left and right catheters with those of the recently introduced Tiger catheter in female participants aged 65 years and older who underwent transradial coronary angiography.
Methods: A cohort of 160 female patients aged 65 and older who were scheduled for coronary angiography (CAG) were divided into two groups according to the use of Tiger (n = 80) or Judkins (n = 80) catheters for radial angiography at a ratio of 1:1, respectively. We analyzed the effectiveness of the Tiger and Judkins catheters, the incidence of catheter failure, contrast volume, CAG time, fluoroscopy time, dose-area product (in mGy/cm), and the occurrence of radial spasm.

Background: Angina with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (ANOCA) is commonly observed in patients with stable angina undergoing coronary angiography. Current guidelines recommend non-invasive stress testing as the first step in diagnosing coronary microvascular disease (CMD). This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic value of non-invasive stress testing in patients invasively diagnosed with CMD.

Background: Coronary stenting operations have become the main option for the treatment of coronary heart disease. Vessel recovery after stenting has emerged as a critical factor in reducing possible complications. In this study, we evaluated the feasibility, safety and efficacy of locally administered intraluminal gene therapy delivered using a specialized infusion balloon catheter.

Aim: To investigate the relationship between epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and myocardial strain and the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD), and to evaluate the predictive value of EAT parameters in early left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction.
Materials And Methods: One hundred seventy patients with suspected CAD who underwent both coronary computed tomography angiography and echocardiography were enrolled in 2020. LV global strains were calculated using commercial software.
