Intervenção coronária percutânea no tronco da coronária esquerda não protegido na rotina da prática diária: incidência, resultados imediatos e seguimento muito tardio
Percutaneous coronary intervention in the unprotected left main coronary artery in the routine of daily practice: incidence, immediate results and very late follow-up

J. Transcatheter Interv; 30 (supl.1), 2022
INTRODUÇÃO: A intervenção coronária percutânea (ICP) no tronco da coronária esquerda (TCE) não protegido tem sido extensamente estudada nos últimos anos. Com o avanço tecnológico e técnico, e baseada nas evidências científicas mais recentes, tal procedimento é atualmente indicada como uma ...

Aplicação da tomografia de coerência óptica no tronco da coronária esquerda. Um estudo de factibilidade técnica
Application of optical coherence tomography in the left main coronary artery. A technical feasibility study

J. Transcatheter Interv; 30 (supl.1), 2022
INTRODUÇÃO: Imagem intravascular é de grande valia na avaliação de estenoses ambíguas e para guiar procedimentos de intervenção coronária percutânea (ICP) no tronco da coronária esquerda (TCE). A necessidade de injeção de contraste para remoção transitória do sangue intraluminal e o grand...

Association between HV interval and electrocardiographic findings in individuals with syncope and left bundle branch block

Europace; 24 (supl.1), 2022
INTRODUCTION The occurrence of syncope is associated with increased mortality in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB). Among syncope risk scores, it is consensual that electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities and the presence of underlying cardiac disease are prominent factors. However, there is...

Compressão do tronco da coronária esquerda secundária à hipertensão arterial pulmonar por esquistossomose: relato de caso
Compression of the left main coronary artery secondary to pulmonary arterial hypertension due to schistosomiasis: case report

INTRODUÇÃO: A compressão extrínseca de coronárias (CEXC) é causa infrequente de angina porém grave devido ao risco de morte súbita, angina refratária e disfunção miocárdica. Cerca de 7-29% dos pacientes com hipertensão pulmonar apresentam sintomas anginosos que podem estar relacionados à CE...

Comparison between Bruce and ramp protocols for exercise testing in the diagnosis of myocardial ischemia

BACKGROUND: Exercise tests are an important tool in the investigation of myocardial ischemia. The ramp protocol has gained increasing importance in clinical practice because of the possibility of individualizing its exercise intensity. OBJECTIVE: To assess and compare the sensitivity, specificity, and ac...

Relationship between ventricular repolarization parameters and the inducibility of ventricular arrhythmias during electrophysiological study in patients with coronary artery disease

OBJECTIVE: Risk stratification of sudden cardiac death in patients with coronary artery disease is of great importance. We evaluated the association between ventricular repolarization and induction of malignant ventricular arrhythmias on electrophysiological study of patients with coronary artery disease...

Outcomes in the ISCHEMIA Trial Based on Coronary Artery Disease and Ischemia Severity

Circulation; 144 (13), 2021
BACKGROUND: The ISCHEMIA trial (International Study of Comparative Health Effectiveness With Medical and Invasive Approaches) postulated that patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and moderate or severe ischemia would benefit from revascularization. We investigated the relationship between s...

Imbalance between the circulating endothelium-derived apoptotic microparticles and the endothelial colony-forming units of progenitor cells in patients undergoing diagnostic coronary angiography

Adv. med. sci; 66 (2), 2021
PURPOSE: The involvement of the circulating endothelium-derived microparticles (EMPs) and the endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) has been shown in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The current study aimed to explore whether the Friesinger index is associated with the levels of the apopt...

Genomics, epigenomics and pharmacogenomics of Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FHBGEP): A study protocol

Res. soc. adm. pharm; 17 (7), 2021
BACKGROUND: Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a genetic disease that affects millions of people worldwide. OBJECTIVES: The study protocol FHBGEP was design to investigate the main genomic, epigenomic, and pharmacogenomic factors associated with FH and polygenic hypercholesterolemia (PH). METHODS: FH ...

FANTOM II long lesion study: initial safety and performance study of the fantom sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable coronary scaffold in long lesionsdfirst report: 2-year outcomes

J. Am. Coll. Cardiol; 77 (14 suppl. s), 2021
BACKGROUND The primary objective of the FANTOM II Long Lesion study was to evaluate the safety and performance of native coronary artery stenting of lesions 20 mm in length using 1 or more Fantom sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable coronary scaffolds. Fantom is a fully resorbable scaffold, manufactured from...
