Examples

In those with stable angina who need revascularization and have two-vessel CAD, stenting is also generally recommended unless they also have diabetes, or their coronary artery anatomy is considered to be complex. Source: Internet

However, ROOBY and other similar trials, show less complete revascularization and worse clinical outcomes out to 5 years. Source: Internet

Most modern revascularization trials of stable cohorts enroll patients with a low angina burden, thus constricting the opportunity to demonstrate a benefit of a better therapy on angina. Source: Internet

The greater relative risk reductions for nonfatal events -- myocardial infarction (MI), revascularization procedures, and major adverse cardiovascular events -- did not show the lower limit for baseline LDL. Source: Internet

The oldest patients had more complex below-knee revascularization procedures and more antegrade femoral access procedures. Source: Internet

"Therefore, patient compliance with medical therapy may inform clinical decision making and should be incorporated into all future comparative studies of comparative coronary revascularization strategies." Source: Internet
