OBJECTIVE The multicenter AUTAX (Austrian Multivessel TAXUS-Stent) registry investigated the 2-year clinical/angiographic outcomes of patients with multivessel coronary artery disease after implantation of TAXUS Express stents (Boston Scientific, Natick, Massachusetts), in a "real-world"

BACKGROUND Observational studies of new coronary stents are necessary to assess performance in a variety of complex patient and lesion types. Furthermore, the optimal dose and duration of thienopyridine treatment is unclear, particularly in patients with complex clinical conditions. The TAXUS

Evaluation of the relationships between muscle structure and digging function in fossorial species is limited. Badgers and other fossorial specialists are expected to have massive forelimb muscles with long fascicles capable of substantial shortening for high power and applying high out-force to the

Percutaneous intervention of the vertebral artery stenosis is associated with the risk of distal embolization and restenosis, which can manifest with stroke. We describe a case of vertebral artery percutaneous intervention utilizing the embolic protection FilterWire and a drug-eluting Taxus stent,

OBJECTIVE This matched-cohort retrospective study investigated the long-term (9-year) safety and efficacy outcomes of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) with Genous (n = 102) versus TAXUS Liberté (n = 101) stents in

BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery is the reference treatment for patients with left main (LM) disease, although percutaneous coronary intervention with drug-eluting stents is emerging as a possible alternative. The objective of this registry was to evaluate the 2-year outcome of elective percutaneous

BACKGROUND The TAXUS Liberté Post Approval Study (TL-PAS) contributed patients treated with TAXUS Liberté paclitaxel-eluting stent and prasugrel to the Dual Antiplatelet Therapy Study (DAPT) that compared 12 and 30 months thienopyridine plus aspirin therapy after drug-eluting

BACKGROUND There are fundamental differences between the CYPHER and TAXUS stents, including the drug coatings, polymers and stent platforms. In this registry study, we sought to investigate the procedural success and 30-day outcomes of the patients who were treated with either the CYPHER or TAXUS

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to validate the SYNTAX (Synergy between PCI with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery) score representing angiographic complexity after unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) revascularization. BACKGROUND The validity of the SYNTAX score has been adequately

OBJECTIVE Thin-strut, flexible DES are suitable for intracranial stenting and may improve long-term vessel patency. The purpose of this study was to report our experience with two new-generation DES for the treatment of intracranial atherosclerotic disease. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed all

OBJECTIVE Despite various evidence supporting the advantages of multiple arterial grafting, inconsistencies in use of the procedure have resulted in high variability in the acceptance and practice of arterial grafting. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of an arterial versus venous

BACKGROUND Current guidelines recommend coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) when treating significant de novo left main coronary artery (LM) stenosis; however, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has a class IIa indication for unprotected LM disease in selected patients. This analysis

OBJECTIVE This study sought to investigate the impact of left main coronary artery (LMCA) 3-dimensional (3D) bifurcation angle (BA) parameters on 5-year clinical outcomes of patients randomized to LMCA percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the SYNTAX (Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary

BACKGROUND The prospective, multinational, randomized Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention With TAXUS and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) trial was designed to assess the optimal revascularization strategy between percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting
