BACKGROUND: Landmark trials showed that invasive pressure measurement (Fractional Flow Reserve, FFR) was a better guide to coronary stenting than visual assessment. However, present-day interventionists have benefited from extensive research and personal experience of mapping anatomy to hemodynamics. AIM...
A doença arterial coronariana (DAC) permanece como uma das principais causas de mortalidade no mundo e o exame padrão-ouro para o seu diagnóstico é a angiografia coronariana invasiva. A quantificação do percentual de obstrução pode ser realizada por estimativa visual ou por angiografia coronária...
Nesta revisão, os autores apresentam os resultados dos mais recentes estudos
comparando tratamento médico otimizado com intervenção coronária percutânea a
ele adicionada na doença coronária estável. O conjunto de resultados permite concluir que a intervenção assim executada é superior para ...

Intra-myocardial dissecting hematoma (IDH) is a rare and unusual form of myocardial rupture that can be secondary to complicate acute myocardail infarction (MI). It is usually caused by a hemorrhagic dissection between the layers of myocardial fibers that can occur during the acute injury or the remodel...
OBJECTIVE: to investigate the factors that exert an influence on health literacy in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS: a cross sectional study, including 122 patients with coronary diseases (60.7% male; 62.07 ± 8.8 years old). Health literacy and specific knowledge about the disease were ev...
Assessing left ventricular (LV) filling pressure (LVFP) is challenging in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and preserved LV ejection fraction (LVEF). We aimed to correlate left atrial strain (LAS) with two invasive complementary parameters of LVFP and compared its accuracy to other echocardiog...

BACKGROUND: Drug-eluting stents (DESs) based on biodegradable polymers (BPs) have been introduced to reduce the risk for late and very late stent thrombosis (ST), which were frequently observed with earlier generations of DES designs based on durable polymers (DPs); however, randomized controlled trials ...

BACKGROUND: Anatomic complete revascularization (ACR) and functional complete revascularization (FCR) have been associated with reduced death and myocardial infarction (MI) in some prior studies. The impact of complete revascularization (CR) in patients undergoing an invasive (INV) compared with a conser...
