TLDR
Despite the scarcity of viable cells, the late event rate in severely calcified arteries is not different from mildly calcification, and this may be due to more frequent malapposition of stents to vessel wall and augmented trauma during PCI in severely calcified arteries.About:

TL;DR: Although drug-eluting stents and devices for plaque modification have modestly improved outcomes in calcified vessels, adverse event rates are still high.

Ischemic outcomes after coronary intervention of calcified vessels in acute coronary syndromes. Pooled analysis from the HORIZONS-AMI (Harmonizing Outcomes With Revascularization and Stents in Acute Myocardial Infarction) and ACUITY (Acute Catheterization and Urgent Intervention Triage Strategy) TRIALS.

TL;DR: Moderate/severe lesion calcification was relatively frequent in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS and STEMI and was strongly predictive of stent thrombosis and ischemic TLR at 1 year.

TL;DR: Preparation of severely calcified plaque with the OAS not only helped facilitate stent delivery, but improved both acute and 30-day clinical outcomes compared with the outcomes of historic control subjects in this difficult-to-treat patient population.

Calcification in atherosclerosis

TL;DR: Whereas the presence of CAC is associated with increased risk, a zero CAC score predicts excellent short-term to mid-term prognosis, even in high-risk patients, as well as incremental prognostic value beyond traditional risk factors in various subsets of the population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intravascular Imaging of Coronary Calcification and Its Clinical Implications
TL;DR: This review focuses on more than 20 years of intravascular imaging studies of the relationship between calcium and coronary atherosclerosis and finds that stable coronary lesions are associated with more calcium than unstable lesions; and the amount of calcium may affect the success of percutaneous coronary intervention.

A Comparison of Balloon-Expandable-Stent Implantation with Balloon Angioplasty in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease

TL;DR: The clinical and angiographic outcomes were better in patients who received a stent than in those who received standard coronary angioplasty, however, this benefit was achieved at the cost of a significantly higher risk of vascular complications at the access site and a longer hospital stay.

TL;DR: In selected patients, placement of an intracoronary stent, as compared with balloon angioplasty, results in an improved rate of procedural success, a lower rate of angiographically detected restenosis, a similar rate of clinical events after six months, and a less frequent need for revascularization of the original coronary lesion.

TL;DR: In patients with acute myocardial infarction, rt-PA elicited reperfusion in twice as many occluded infarct-related arteries as compared with SK at each of seven serial observations during the first 90 min after onset of treatment.

TL;DR: Intravascular ultrasound imaging is a new method in which high resolution images of the arterial wall are obtained with use of a catheter placed within an artery, and an excellent correlation was obtained with those calculated from microscopic slides.
