Frequency and Determinants of ‚ÄúBlack Holes‚Äù in Sirolimus-Eluting Stent Restenosis

We developed a risk score to estimate the risk of major adverse cardiac event (MACE) during the in-hospital and long-term follow-up periods after PCI with drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation.

We developed a risk score to...

A Three-Dimensional Intravascular Ultrasound Comparison

the Non-Drug-E

Sirolimus-eluting and paclitaxel-eluting stents decrease neointimal hyperplasia leading to a reduction, but not elimination, of in-stent restenosis.1–4 Because sirolimus and paclitaxel decrease neointimal hyperplasia, restenosis is dependent...
