TL;DR: Routine thrombus aspiration before PCI as compared with PCI alone did not reduce 30-day mortality among patients with STEMI, and results were consistent across all major prespecified subgroups, including subgroups defined according toThrombus burden and coronary flow before PCI.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The clinical expert consensus document part I summarizes the current state of knowledge on clinical presentation and characteristics of TTS and agrees on controversies surrounding TTS such as nomenclature, different TTS types, role of coronary artery disease, and etiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Matthias Götberg,Evald Høj Christiansen,Ingibjorg J. Gudmundsdottir,Lennart Sandhall,Mikael Danielewicz,Lars Jakobsen,Sven-Erik Olsson,Patrik Öhagen,Hans Olsson,Elmir Omerovic,Fredrik Calais,Pontus Lindroos,Michael Maeng,Tim Tödt,Dimitrios Venetsanos,Stefan James,Amra Kåregren,Margareta Nilsson,Jörg Carlsson,Dario Hauer,Jens Jensen,Ann-Charlotte Karlsson,Georgios Panayi,David Erlinge,Ole Fröbert +24 more
TL;DR: Among patients with stable angina or an acute coronary syndrome, an iFR‐ guided revascularization strategy was noninferior to an FFR‐guided revascularized strategy with respect to the rate of major adverse cardiac events at 12 months.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fractional Flow Reserve-Guided Multivessel Angioplasty in Myocardial Infarction
Pieter C. Smits,Mohamed Abdel-Wahab,Franz-Josef Neumann,Bianca M. Boxma-de Klerk,Ketil Lunde,Carl E. Schotborgh,Zsolt Piroth,David Horák,Adrian Wlodarczak,Paul Jau Lueng Ong,Rainer Hambrecht,Oskar Angerås,Gert Richardt,Elmir Omerovic +13 more
TL;DR: In patients with STEMI and multivessel disease who underwent primary PCI of an infarct‐related artery, the addition of FFR‐guided complete revascularization of non‐infarCT‐related coronary arteries in the acute setting resulted in a risk of a composite cardiovascular outcome that was lower than the risk among those who were treated for the infarction only.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The clinical expert consensus statement on takotsubo syndrome (TTS) part II focuses on the diagnostic workup, outcome, and management and summarizes the diagnostic approach, which may facilitate correct and timely diagnosis.
