Transradial (TR) access for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) improves outcomes and reduces the risk of major bleeding compared with transfemoral (TF) access. However, data on gender-stratified outcomes based on vascular…
The relationship between restless legs syndrome (RLS) and cardiovascular disease remains enigmatic in the general population, and its prognostic value in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is unknown. In…
Currently, both drug-eluting stents (DES) and drug-eluting balloons are recommended in patients with in-stent restenosis (ISR) of metallic stents. However, the clinical results of repeated interventions in patients with restenosis…
Saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) have high rates of in-stent restenosis (ISR). We compared the baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics of patients and lesions that did develop ISR with those who…
There is a scarcity of data on ischemic and bleeding events in patients who experienced major bleeding after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Moreover, there also is a shortage of data…
Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) largely affects postmenopausal women but has been shown to carry increased mortality risk in men. We sought to evaluate nationwide in-hospital outcomes between men and women admitted…
Resolvins and maresins, members of the specialized proresolving mediator (SPM) family, are omega-3 fatty acid-derived lipid mediators that attenuate inflammation. We hypothesized that they play a role in the pathophysiology…
There remains a lack of prognosis models for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). This study aims to develop a nomogram predicting 3-, 5-, and 7-year survival in patients…
Patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, but studies on HIV as a risk factor for cardiac arrest in the general population are…
Atypical antipsychotics are used in cardiac intensive care units (CICU) to treat delirium despite limited data on safety in patients with acute cardiovascular conditions. Patients treated with these agents may…
