There remains uncertainty over optimal antithrombotic management strategy for patients
with atrial fibrillation (AF) presenting with an acute coronary syndrome and/or undergoing …

Background— Infectious agents, especially bacteria and their components originating from
the oral cavity or respiratory tract, have been suggested to contribute to inflammation in the …

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and triple
therapy (TT, dual antiplatelet plus warfarin) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) or PCI …

Aims: Titanium-nitride-oxide-coated bioactive stents (BAS) have demonstrated a favourable
outcome when compared with paclitaxel-eluting stents in patients with acute myocardial …

Patients needing surgery for peripheral arterial disease (PAD) represent a severe form of
atherosclerosis with an overall 5-yr mortality of 30% after revascularisation. The aetiology for …

Aims: We sought to present the 5‐year clinical outcome of the titanium‐nitride‐oxide‐coated
bioactive stents (BAS), as compared to paclitaxel‐eluting stents (PES), in a real‐world …

Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and
associates with high mortality after surgery. Since abnormal heart rate variability (HRV) is …

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular events.
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) represents severe atherosclerosis with a high mortality …

Data on early vascular healing response of novel stent designs are scarce. In this
randomized prospective trial, we sought to compare early neointimal coverage of cobalt–chromium-…

Background Endothelialization of stent struts is crucial after stenting, since delayed vascular
healing predisposes to stent thrombosis. The antibody-coated Genous stent promotes rapid …
