Ticagrelor vs Clopidogrel: CV Events in Peripheral Artery Disease
Both ticagrelor and clopidogrel appear to have the same effect on patients with peripheral artery disease.
Peripheral Artery Disease
Peripheral Artery Disease Events Linked to Lipid-Rich Necrotic Core
Lipid-rich necrotic core in the proximal superficial femoral artery is associated with higher rates of clinical peripheral artery disease events.
Peripheral Artery Disease: Drug-Coated Balloon vs Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty
At 1 year, primary patency was 82.3% for the drug-coated balloon group vs 70.9% for the percutaneous transluminal angioplasty group.
Peripheral Artery Disease Mortality Risk Increased With Meat By-Product
Patients with the highest levels of trimethylamine N-oxide had double the odds of dying during a 5-year period than those with the lowest levels.
Peripheral Vascular Intervention With Robotic-Assisted Platform
Device technical success, device safety, and clinical procedure success were all 100% with a robotic-assisted platform in peripheral artery disease intervention.
Prolonged DAPT Reduces Risk of Ischemic Events in Peripheral Arterial Disease
Prolonged DAPT correlated with a reduced risk of a composite of death, myocardial infarction, or cerebrovascular accidents in patients with peripheral arterial disease.
Higher Patency With Paclitaxel-Eluting Balloon Angioplasty vs Standard Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty
PACUBA trial results revealed that paclitaxel-eluting balloon angioplasty yielded higher patency rates than standard percutaneous transluminal angioplasty.
MACE and All-Cause Mortality Reduced With Statin Therapy in Asymptomatic Peripheral Artery Disease
Major cardiovascular adverse events and all-cause mortality were significantly reduced in patients without clinical CVD but with asymptomatic peripheral artery disease.
Infrapopliteal Sirolimus-Eluting Stenting More Effective than Plain Balloon Angioplasty for Wound Healing
One-year data from the ACHILLES trial suggest that infrapopliteal sirolimus-eluting stenting is more effective for wound healing than plain balloon angioplasty.
Favorable Patency, Poor Life Expectancy in Intravascular Ultrasound-Guided Stenting
IVUS-guided stenting demonstrated favorable patency, but poor life expectancy for patients with peripheral arterial disease.
