01- ESC 2021 | Updated European Society of Cardiology Guidelines for the Management of Valvular Heart Disease Early intervention in asymptomatic valvular heart disease, age recommendations to decide between TAVR and surgery for aortic stenosis, and a push in favor of transcatheter repair in secondary mitral regurgitation are some of the new modifications to the&nbsp;European<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/10/01/the-most-read-scientific-papers-of-september-in-interventional-cardiology/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ESC 2021 | RIPCORD-2: Routine FFR Evaluation of All Epicardial Vessels During Angiography

The predecessor of this research—RIPCORD, published in 2014—showed that using fractional flow reserve (FFR) changes the treatment strategy in about 25% of patients. That marked the rise of FFR. In fact, the DEFER, FAME, and FAME&nbsp;2 studies offered results consistent with the original RIPCORD. In this research, authors tested the hypothesis of systematic use of<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/09/01/esc-2021-ripcord-2-routine-ffr-evaluation-of-all-epicardial-vessels-during-angiography/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ACC 2021 | ADAPTABLE: Bajas dosis de aspirina son iguales de efectivas y con muy bajo riesgo de sangrado

ACC 2021 | ADAPTABLE: Low Doses of Aspirin Are Equally Effective and Present Lower Bleeding Risk

Patients diagnosed with cardiovascular disease taking aspirin as secondary prevention can take lower doses and achieve the same efficacy level as those taking 325&nbsp;mg. According to the ADAPTABLE study, presented at the American College of Cardiology (ACC) 2021 Congress and simultaneously published in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), both schemes were associated with<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/05/18/acc-2021-adaptable-low-doses-of-aspirin-are-equally-effective-and-present-lower-bleeding-risk/" title="Read more" >...</a>

ISCHEMIA: New Analysis Might Change Study Outcome Interpretation

A new ISCHEMIA analysis has shown its outcomes are highly dependent on MI definition. The original conclusion had shown a significant difference between invasive and conservative strategies using the most sensible definition of MI: troponin elevation.&nbsp; When looking at events using MI definition as troponin elevation, we will see the conservative treatment reduces primary end<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2021/02/04/ischemia-new-analysis-might-change-study-outcome-interpretation/" title="Read more" >...</a>

We Should Indicate More than 6 Months of DAPT in Lower Limb Disease

Courtesy of Dr. Carlos&nbsp;Fava. Advanced peripheral vascular disease is frequently associated with cardiovascular events and amputation. It has been proven that mono-antiplatelet therapy (MAPT) offers some benefit (with either aspirin or clopidogrel), but there are scarce data on the role of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in these patients. Researchers analyzed 404&nbsp;patients who received MAPT for<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/01/07/we-should-indicate-more-than-6-months-of-dapt-in-lower-limb-disease/" title="Read more" >...</a>

Latest Guidelines “Dropped” After Scandal Over EXCEL Results

The European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery (EACTS) formally withdrew its support for the latest coronary revascularization guidelines following a BBC investigation suggesting that data from the EXCEL trial might have been manipulated. The recommendations for left main coronary artery revascularization featured in the 2018 guidelines, which were written jointly with the European Society of Cardiology<a href="https://solaci.org/en/2020/01/06/latest-guidelines-dropped-after-scandal-over-excel-results/" title="Read more" >...</a>
