Paclitaxel or sirolimus DCBs for coronary bifurcations
Daniele Giacoppo
Multiple trials have evaluated the use of drug-coated balloon (DCB) angioplasty for the treatment of side branch disease in coronary bifurcation lesions, with generally favorable angiographic outcomes compared to other interventional approaches.

Sirolimus DCB in coronary bifurcation lesions
You Zhou, Junbo Ge, et al.
This study found that in the treatment of de novo non-left main coronary bifurcation lesions, the use of a sirolimus-coated balloon in the side branch was non-inferior to a paclitaxel-coated balloon in terms of 9-month diameter stenosis.

Significance of COVADIS criteria in acetylcholine testing
Riccardo Rinaldi, Rocco A. Montone, et al.
This study assessed the prognostic impact of COVADIS criteria during acetylcholine provocation testing in INOCA and MINOCA patients, finding that the number and type of positive criteria were associated with different rates of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events.

Insights from the ULTRA-BIFURCAT registry
Ovidio De Filippo, Fabrizio D’Ascenzo, et al.
In a large real-world registry, final kissing balloon inflation was not associated with reduced major adverse cardiac events but was linked to lower rates of lesion-associated adverse outcomes in patients treated with provisional stenting for coronary bifurcation lesions.

SAPIEN 3 Ultra in intermediate sizing zones
Giuliano Costa, Marco Barbanti, et al.
This study examines the potential advantages of using intermediate balloon-expandable valve sizes for transcatheter aortic valve implantation, but the real impact remains unclear due to the small sample size and lack of data on changes in filling volume.
