Background: The majority of stent-related major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are believed to occur within the first year. Very-late (>1-year) stent-related MACE have not been well described. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency and predictors of very-late stent-related events or MACE by stent type. Methods: Individual patient data from 19 prospective, randomized metallic stent trials maintained at a leading academic research organization were pooled.

Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) reduces the incidence of thrombotic complications at the cost of an increase in bleedings. New antiplatelet therapies focused on minimizing bleeding and maximizing antithrombotic effects are emerging. The aim of this study is to collect the current evidence coming from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on early aspirin interruption after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and current drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation and to perform a meta-analysis in order to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this strategy.

Objectives: We conducted a systematic review and network meta-analysis of available randomized clinical trials (RCTs) to compare cardiovascular outcomes involving stenting techniques in coronary bifurcation lesions. Background: Although provisional stenting of the main branch and balloon angioplasty of the side branch is considered the standard approach, the use of two stents is often pursued with a wide variety of bifurcation stenting techniques available.

Airport pavements should satisfy safe and regular aircraft operations; thus, it is necessary to monitor these surfaces and implement expensive maintenance and rehabilitation works. The Airport Pavement Management System (APMS)is an approach to monitor the pavement condition and to determine the priorities for intervention, to plan, and to allocate resources through procedures. The method for monitoring pavement conditions is currently adopted by the airport management company because it is necessary to the airport operability.
