Journal ArticleDOI

Incidence, predictors, and outcome of thrombosis after successful implantation of drug-eluting stents.

TL;DR: The cumulative incidence of stent thrombosis 9 months after successful drug-eluting stent implantation in consecutive "real-world" patients was substantially higher than the rate reported in clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arterial calcification and not lumen stenosis is highly correlated with atherosclerotic plaque burden in humans: A histologic study of 723 coronary artery segments using nondecalcifying methodology

TL;DR: Coronary calcium quantification is an excellent method of assessing atherosclerotic plaque presence at individual artery sites and the remodeling phenomenon is the likely explanation for the lack of a good predictive value between lumen narrowing and quantification of mural calcification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathology of Acute and Chronic Coronary Stenting in Humans

TL;DR: Morphology after coronary stenting demonstrates early thrombus formation and acute inflammation followed by neointimal growth, and deployment strategies that reduce medial damage and avoid stent oversizing may lower the frequency of in-stent restenosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

A systematic review and meta-analysis on the hazards of discontinuing or not adhering to aspirin among 50,279 patients at risk for coronary artery disease.

TL;DR: Non-compliance or withdrawal of aspirin treatment has ominous prognostic implication in subjects with or at moderate-to-high risk for CAD and aspirin discontinuation in such patients should be advocated only when bleeding risk clearly overwhelms that of atherothrombotic events.
