Background: Transradial (TR) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a preferable PCI route. The complication difference between TR and TF approaches is controversial.
Methods: PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane databases were queried for PCI outcomes of TR TF in STEMI for major cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), major bleeding, and mortality. The odds ratio (OR) was calculated using the random-effect model.
Results: We included 56 studies comprising of 68,733 patients (TR, n = 26,179; TF, n = 42,537). TR-PCI was associated with statistically significant lower odds of MACCE (OR = 0.66, 95% CI: 0.49-0.88, p-value = 0.005), major bleeding (OR = 0.47, 95% CI 0.32-0.68, p-value<0.001), mortality (OR = 0.59, 95% CI 0.43-0.80, p-value<0.001) at in hospital follow-up. TR-PCI was associated with statistically significant lower MACCE (OR = 0.59, 95% CI 0.43-0.80, p-value<0.001), major bleeding (OR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.49-0.68, p-value<0.001), and mortality (OR = 0.61, 95% CI 0.44-0.86, p-value = 0.005) at 30-day follow-up. The same difference was seen at 1-year.
Conclusion: TR-PCI was associated with lower odds of MACCE, major bleeding, and mortality during short- and long-term follow-up.

Background: Diabetic patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are at an increased risk of cardiovascular events as compared to non-diabetic patients. This analysis investigated outcomes of diabetic patients presenting with multivessel disease (MVD) and STEMI in a contemporary trial and the relevance of an immediate versus staged multivessel PCI strategy in this high-risk population.
Methods: Patients enrolled in the MULTISTARS AMI trial were stratified according to the presence/absence of diabetes.

Background: The timely transfer of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) to percutaneous coronary intervention-capable centers is critical for improving outcomes. Although the American Heart Association recommends a door-in-door-out (DIDO) time of ≤30 minutes, national compliance remains low.
Project Rationale: At Harris Health, no patients with STEMI met this benchmark before 2022.

Background: The rotational atherectomy system can effectively debulk calcified coronary lesions. However, rare complications specific to that system have been reported.
Case Summary: A 77-year-old man with a heavily calcified lesion in the right coronary artery (RCA) ostium underwent percutaneous coronary intervention in an 8-F system.

Background Hyperuricemia (HUA) frequently coexists with coronary artery disease (CAD) and is linked to adverse cardiovascular outcomes. The long-term impact of urate-lowering therapy (ULT) on clinical outcomes, including all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), in CAD patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been determined. That was the aim of this study.
