ABSORB: Final Outcomes With the Absorb Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold
Author(s): David Power Added: 1 year ago
Outcomes investigating the Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention showed more adverse ischaemic events through 5 years compared with cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents. However, the period of excess risk ended at 3 years.In this short interview, Dr David Power (Mount Sinai Hospital, New York, US) discusses the final report… View more

Semaglutide May Aid Vascular Repair in High-Risk Patients
Added: 1 month ago Source:  Radcliffe CVRM
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are known to reduce major atherosclerotic cardiovascular events, but the full extent of their mechanisms is still being explored. The SEMA-VR CardioLink-15 trial investigated whether semaglutide affects the levels of circulating vascular regenerative (VR) cells, which are involved in vessel repair and may modulate atherothrombotic risk.¹… View more
