The debut of a new State-of-the-Art section, this month looking at the optimisation of physiological endpoints in PCI, a mini focus on biostatistics for clinical trials including the win ratio. In coronary research, the impact of clinical and haemodynamic factors on coronary flow reserve and invasive coronary flow capacity assessment in non-obstructed coronary arteries; the use of coronary sinus Reducer implantation to improve oxygen kinetics and effort tolerance in refractory angina; outcomes of the I-LOVE-IT 2 trial comparing biodegradable versus durable drug-eluting stents; image assessment of post-TAVI aortic manipulation; left ventricular scar reduction and modification using the minimally invasive Revivent TC device; the novel Ovation stent graft for endovascular aneurysm repair in patients with challenging anatomies and more...
