Randomized Comparison of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Diabetic Patients: 1-Year Results of the CARDia (Coronary Artery Revascularization in Diabetes) Trial
Akhil Kapur,Roger Hall,Roger Hall,Iqbal S. Malik,Ayesha C. Qureshi,Jeremy N Butts,Mark A. de Belder,Andreas Baumbach,Gianni D Angelini,Adam de Belder,Keith G. Oldroyd,Marcus Flather,Michael Roughton,Petros Nihoyannopoulos,Jens Peder Bagger,Kenneth P. Morgan,Kevin J. Beatt +16 more
TL;DR: The CARDia trial did show that multivessel PCI is feasible in patients with diabetes, but longer-term follow-up and data from other trials will be needed to provide a more precise comparison of the efficacy of these 2 revascularization strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rothman,Craig A. Thompson,Anthony Mathur,Anthony Mathur,Andrew Wragg,Andrew Wragg,Elliot J. Smith,Elliot J. Smith +18 more
TL;DR: Successful CTO PCI is associated with improved survival out to 5 years and adoption of techniques and technologies to improve procedural success may have an impact on prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Remote ischemic preconditioning has a neutral effect on the incidence of kidney injury after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

TL;DR: RIPC induced by forearm ischemia-reperfusion had no effect on the frequency of AKI after CABG in patients with CKD, and there were no significant differences between the two groups in the concentrations of any of the serum or urinary biomarkers of renal or cardiac injury after C ABG.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anatomy of coronary disease in diabetic patients: an explanation for poorer outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention and potential target for intervention
TL;DR: What is known about the pattern and severity of diabetic coronary disease, what mechanisms are responsible for these differences, and whether this information can help explain the poorer prognosis for patients after PCI are summarized to form the basis of interventions to improve outcome are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that discharge of low-risk patients 2 days after successful PPCI is feasible and safe, and over 40% of all patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction may be suitable for early discharge with important implications for healthcare costs.
