Journal ArticleDOI
Subgroup analyses in trial reports comparing percutaneous coronary intervention with coronary artery bypass surgery
TL;DR: The authors evaluated subgroup analyses in reports from RCTs comparing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and found low credibility due to methodological or reporting issues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting prognosis in cardiac surgery: a prophecy?
TL;DR: It is shown that as surgical and perioperative care evolves and the impact of clinical variables change, prediction models therefore require revision and it becomes even more important that units and surgeons calculate their own risk-adjusted mortality ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical Sutureless and Sutured Aortic Valve Replacement in Low-risk Patients.
Ka Yan Lam,Michael J. Reardon,Steven J. Yakubov,Thomas Modine,Stephen E. Fremes,Pim A.L. Tonino,M. Erwin Tan,Thomas G. Gleason,J. Kevin Harrison,G. Chad Hughes,Jae K. Oh,Stuart J. Head,Jian Huang,G. Michael Deeb +13 more
TL;DR: Among low-risk patients, sutureless versus sutured valve use did not demonstrate a benefit in terms of 30-day complications and produced marginally better hemodynamics, but with an increased rate of pacemaker implantation and valve-related hospitalizations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interpretation of results of pooled analysis of individual patient data - Authors' reply.
TL;DR: The authors identified important subgroup differences that might affect the choice of revascularisation modality and challenged the conclusions because they performed no tests for interaction between left main and multivessel disease and did not correct for multiplicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hierarchical testing of composite endpoints: applying the win ratio to percutaneous coronary intervention versus coronary artery bypass grafting in the SYNTAX trial.
Milan Milojevic,Stuart J. Head,Eleni-Rosalina Andrinopoulou,Patrick W. Serruys,Friedrich W. Mohr,Jan G.P. Tijssen,A. Pieter Kappetein +6 more
TL;DR: This re-analysis of the SYNTAX trial using the win ratio shows that the most important benefit of CABG treatment is the reduction of hard clinical endpoints such as mortality and MI.
