Article Abstract
A 56-year-old man, suspected of having ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction due to spontaneous coronary artery dissection, underwent emergency percutaneous coronary intervention. Although he had moderate aortic regurgitation with aortic root dilation and mild heart failure, it was controlled with medications. Two weeks after discharge, he was readmitted with severe heart failure due to severe aortic regurgitation and underwent an aortic root replacement. Intraoperative findings revealed that localized dissection of the sinus of Valsalva involved the right coronary artery, resulting in coronary artery dissection. In cases of spontaneous coronary artery dissection, attention should be paid to coronary artery dissection caused by localized aortic root dissection.

The outcome of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is still controversial for patients with left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease. This multicenter cohort study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of LMCA disease patients who underwent PCI or CABG. We reviewed 875 consecutive patients diagnosed with LMCA disease between January 2009 and December 2020 who underwent coronary revascularization by PCI (n = 404) or CABG (n = 471).

Background: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) for non-culprit lesions (NCLs) in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) can be influenced by temporary changes in microvascular resistance. Angiography-derived vessel fractional flow reserve (vFFR) has been tested as a less-invasive alternative.
Aims: The FAST STEMI II study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of acute-setting vFFR vs.
Ticagrelor Versus Clopidogrel in Patients With Chronic Coronary Syndrome Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Catheter Cardiovasc Interv

Escuela de Medicina, Universidad Peruana Unión, Lima, Peru.
Background: Current guidelines recommend clopidogrel in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (CCS) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), yet the comparative benefits are unclear.
Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in patients with CCS undergoing PCI.
Methods: We searched PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL databases from inception to February 15, 2025.
Study of Clinical Profile of Patients of Acute Kidney Injury in Critically Ill Patients.
Ann Afr Med
September 2025
Department of General Medicine, Dr. D.Y. Patil Medical College, Hospital and Research Centre, Pune, Maharashtra, India.
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) represents one of the most challenging and common complications encountered in critically ill patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) worldwide. This sudden deterioration in kidney function substantially contributes to morbidity and mortality in the intensive care setting, prolongs hospital stays, and increases healthcare costs.
Objective: The objective of this study is to study the clinical profile, etiology, complications, and outcomes of AKI in critically ill patients admitted to the medicine ICU.
Synergistic Impact of Glycaemic Control and Coronary Stenosis Severity on Long-Term Prognosis in Diabetes with Chronic Coronary Syndrome: A Ten-Year Retrospective Study.

Department of Cardiology, Tangdu Hospital, The Fourth Military Medical University, Xi'an, People's Republic of China.
Aim: This 10-year study aimed to evaluate how glycaemic control, diabetes duration and coronary stenosis severity affect mortality in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and to perform multifactorial risk analysis to find key modifiable factors for better risk stratification and secondary prevention.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study involved 150 patients with T2DM with chronic coronary syndrome who had coronary angiography at a single centre between 2011 and 2012. Demographic and biochemical data were collected.
