The latest on renal denervation, left ventricular recovery after TAVI, achieving complete revascularisation in ACS and more

Everywhere we turn we are confronted by an ongoing debate about the dangers – and advantages – of artificial intelligence. In the last issue, we spoke about evidence, and here, one of our articles looks at artificial intelligence and the role it could play in one aspect of our clinical lives. There is no reason to believe that hard clinical data and artificial intelligence are necessarily opposed… but we still need to be vigilant. The jury is out, and the evidence needs to be collected – what do you think?

Efficacy of antithrombotic monotherapy according to revascularisation
Takashi Noda, Satoshi Yasuda et al.
In patients with atrial fibrillation and stable coronary artery disease who had prior revascularization, rivaroxaban monotherapy had superior efficacy and safety compared to combination therapy with rivaroxaban plus antiplatelet.

Crushed prasugrel loading dose in STEMI patients
Jeroen M. Wilschut, Roberto Diletti, et al.
In STEMI patients with a prehospital large myocardial area at risk, administration of crushed prasugrel loading dose was associated with higher post-procedural TIMI 3 flow rates compared to integral prasugrel.

Biological differences in paclitaxel- and sirolimus-coated balloons
Kazuki Aihara, Gaku Nakazawa, et al.
This preclinical study compared the drug effects and safety of low-dose paclitaxel, regular-dose paclitaxel and sirolimus-coated drug-coated balloons when inflated in rabbit iliac arteries. Paclitaxel-coated balloons showed higher efficacy and lower distal embolization risk than the sirolimus-coated balloon.

Comparative preclinical assessment of DCBs
Michael Joner; Léa Wild
A study compared three drug-coated balloon formulations in a porcine model, assessing drug transfer and tissue distribution as surrogates for clinical efficacy. Both paclitaxel formulations showed greater smooth muscle cell loss than the sirolimus formulation, but limitations were present.

Ischaemic and viability testing for guiding PCI are overrated: pros and cons
Margaret B. McEntegart; Victoria Delgado et al.
Two large randomized trials found no benefit of an invasive strategy guided by ischaemia and viability testing over medical therapy alone for stable CAD patients, challenging the clinical usefulness of such testing.

Bailout MANTA for transfemoral TAVI
This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of using the MANTA plug-based vascular closure device in 66 patients experiencing failed suture-based closure during transfemoral TAVI, finding it achieved haemostasis in 75.8% without complications in 86.4%.
