Effects of clopidogrel in addition to aspirin in patients with acute coronary syndromes without ST-segment elevation.

TL;DR: The antiplatelet agent clopidogrel has beneficial effects in patients with acute coronary syndromes without ST-segment elevation, however, the risk of major bleeding is increased among patients treated with clopIDogrel.

TL;DR: Long-term administration of clopidogrel to patients with atherosclerotic vascular disease is more effective than aspirin in reducing the combined risk of ischaemic stroke, myocardial infarction, or vascular death.

An international randomized trial comparing four thrombolytic strategies for acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: The findings of this large-scale trial indicate that accelerated t-PA given with intravenous heparin provides a survival benefit over previous standard thrombolytic regimens.

A randomised, blinded, trial of clopidogrel versus aspirin in patients at risk of ischaemic events (CAPRIE). CAPRIE Steering Committee

TL;DR: The CAPRIE trial as discussed by the authors evaluated the relative efficacy of clopidogrel and aspirin in reducing the risk of a composite outcome cluster of ischaemic stroke, myocardial infarction, or vascular death; their relative safety was also assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early and sustained dual oral antiplatelet therapy following percutaneous coronary intervention: a randomized controlled trial.

TL;DR: Following PCI, long-term clopidogrel therapy significantly reduced the risk of adverse ischemic events and subgroup analyses suggest that longer intervals between the loading dose and PCI may reduce events.
