Effect of abciximab on angiographic complications during percutaneous coronary stenting in the Evaluation of Platelet IIb/IIIa Inhibition in Stenting Trial (EPISTENT).

TL;DR: In summary, abciximab (compared with placebo) significantly reduced angiographic complications during coronary stenting and also prevented CK-MB elevations in patients without angiography complications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduction in myocardial infarct size by basic fibroblast growth factor following coronary occlusion in a canine model.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that bFGF significantly limits myocardial necrosis after acute coronary occlusion, and that this occurred without an increase in regionalMyocardial perfusion and within a period of time too brief for angiogenesis to have occurred.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bivalirudin vs Heparin in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Pooled Analysis:

TL;DR: This analysis further supports the superiority of bivalirudin compared with heparin, providing excellent ischemic protection with a significant reduction of bleeding complications, even in high-risk subgroups.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Healthy Pregnancy Research Program: transforming pregnancy research through a ResearchKit app.

TL;DR: This work developed the first pregnancy research app that is embedded within an existing, popular pregnancy app for self-management and education of expectant mothers, and demonstrated the potential for a smartphone-based research platform to capture an ever-expanding array of longitudinal, objective, and subjective participant-generated data from a continuously growing and diverse population of pregnant women.
