Abstract
BACKGROUND Supraflex is a sirolimus-eluting stent with a biodegradable polymer coating and ultra-thin struts. We aimed to compare Supraflex with the standard of care, Xience, an everolimus-eluting stent with a durable polymer coating, regarding clinical outcomes with a randomised trial in an all-comer population. METHODS We did a prospective, randomised, single-blind, multicentre study (TALENT) across 23 centres in Europe (the Netherlands, Poland, the UK, Spain, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Italy). Eligible participants were aged 18 years or older, had one or more coronary artery stenosis of 50% or greater in a native coronary artery, saphenous venous graft, or arterial bypass conduit, and had a reference vessel diameter of 2·25-4·50 mm. Patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention in an all-comer manner. We randomly assigned patients (1:1) to implantation of either a sirolimus-eluting stent with a biodegradable polymer coating and ultra-thin struts (Supraflex) or an everolimus-eluting stent with a durable polymer coating (Xience). Randomisation was done by local investigators by use of a web-based software with random blocks according to centre. The primary endpoint was a non-inferiority comparison of a device-oriented composite endpoint-cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction, or clinically indicated target lesion revascularisation-between groups at 12 months after the procedure, assessed in an intention-to-treat population. On assumption of 1-year composite endpoint prevalence of 8·3%, a margin of 4·0% was defined for non-inferiority of the Supraflex group compared with the Xience group. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT02870140. FINDINGS Between Oct 21, 2016, and July 3, 2017, 1435 patients with 1046 lesions were randomly assigned to Supraflex, of whom 720 received the index procedure, and 715 patients with 1030 lesions were assigned to Xience, all receiving the index procedure. At 12 months, the primary endpoint had occurred in 35 patients (4·9 %) in the Supraflex group and in 37 patients (5·3%) in the Xience group (absolute difference -0·3% [one-sided 95% upper confidence bound 1·6%], pnon-inferiority<0·0001). Definite or probable stent thrombosis prevalence, a safety indicator, was low in both groups and did not differ between them. INTERPRETATION The Supraflex stent was non-inferior to the Xience stent for a device-oriented composite clinical endpoint at 12 months in an all-comer population. Supraflex seems a safe and effective alternative drug-eluting stent to other stents in clinical practice. FUNDING European Cardiovascular Research Institute.

Abstract
Background Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is associated with emergency hospitalizations, and there are limited real-world data on clinical outcomes in post-ACS Asian patients. This article presents data on the Indian subgroup from the Long-term Follow-up of Antithrombotic Management Patterns in Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients in Asia (EPICOR-Asia) study. Methods EPICOR included patients with ACS [ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), or unstable angina (UA)]. The study had two phases: acute phase and follow-up phase. The primary objective was to describe short- and long-term antithrombotic management patterns. Results EPICOR-India enrolled 2468 patients (STEMI-1482; NSTEMI-562; and UA-424). Cardiovascular risk factors were present in 1362 (55.2%) patients. Prehospital care was received by 879 (35.6%) patients, and the median time from the symptom onset to the first medical attention was 3 h (0.08, 100.33). The most common drug regimen prescribed during the acute phase was ≥2 antiplatelet agents + anticoagulants with no glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors and at discharge were aspirin + clopidogrel. About 78.8% of patients were discharged on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and 16%, on single antiplatelet therapy (SAPT). At 23 months after discharge, 55.6% were on DAPT, while 16.4% were on SAPT. Postdischarge outcomes at 2 years included death in 165 (6.7%) patients, composite events of death, myocardial infarction (MI), or ischemic stroke in 182 (7.4%) patients, and bleeding events in seven (0.3%) patients. Conclusion This study showed a gap between international recommendations and implementation for managing ACS in Indian patients. Most of the patients prefer to undergo invasive management instead of non-invasive therapy. At the end of the 2-year follow-up, more than half of the population was receiving DAPT, with most patients on receiving a combination of aspirin and clopidogrel. The mortality along with composite events of death, MI, or ischemic stroke was highest for patients with NSTEMI.

Abstract
Objective The aim of the present study was to assess seven-year clinical outcomes of biodegradable polymer coated Supralimus sirolimus-eluting stent (S-SES) [Sahajanand Medical Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Surat, India] in real-world patients with coronary artery disease. Methods This observational, retrospective study was carried out in all 346 consecutive enrolled patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the S-SES, between April 2008 and December 2009, at a single center. We analyzed major adverse cardiac events (MACE) [a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI), target lesion revascularization (TLR) and target vessel revascularization (TVR)] as primary outcomes at seven-year follow-up. Results Out of 346 patients, seven-year follow-up was obtained in 327 (94.5%) patients and hence results were analyzed for 327 patients. At seven-year, MACE occurred in 41 (12.5%) patients, consisting of 23 (7.0%) cardiac deaths, 14 (4.3%) TLR, and 4 (1.2%) TVR. The incidence of late stent thrombosis was observed in 3 (0.9%) patients. At follow-up of seven-year, the cumulative event-free survival was found to be 84.7% by Kaplan-Meier method. Conclusions The present study demonstrated satisfactory and sustained seven-year clinical outcomes as evidenced by the low rates of MACE and ST for the biodegradable polymer coated S-SES.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study was to report whether the superiority of the everolimus-eluting stent (EES) vs. the paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) at one-year follow-up in the Taxus Element versus Xience Prime in a Diabetic Population (TUXEDO)-India trial was sustained at longer-term follow-up. METHODS AND RESULTS One thousand eight hundred and thirty (1,830) patients with diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease were randomised to EES vs. PES. Follow-up data up to two years were available in 1,701 (92.9%) patients. The primary endpoint was target vessel failure (TVF), defined as the composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI), or ischaemia-driven target vessel revascularisation (TVR). Treatment with EES had a lower two-year rate of TVF (4.3% vs. 6.6%, p=0.03). Of the secondary endpoints, EES significantly reduced any MI (1.6% vs. 3.5%, p=0.01), TV-MI (0.7% vs. 3.1%, p=0.0001), ST (0.4% vs. 2.2%, p=0.001), cardiac death or target vessel MI (2.9% vs. 4.8%, p=0.04) and TLR (1.9% vs. 3.7%, p=0.02), compared with PES. Between one year and two years, no significant differences in the clinical outcomes were observed (pinteraction >0.05). CONCLUSIONS In this adequately powered trial, the benefits of EES vs. PES in a diabetic population seen at one year were maintained at two years.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Prior studies have shown that patients with insulin-treated diabetes mellitus (ITDM) have a higher risk of cardiovascular events. However, this finding is controversial, as other studies have shown that the increased risk of cardiovascular events disappears after risk adjustment. In addition, the choice of a drug-eluting stent (limus- vs taxol-eluting) in ITDM is controversial, with studies showing worse outcomes with an everolimus-eluting stent compared with a paclitaxel-eluting stent. OBJECTIVES To assess the outcomes of patients with ITDM vs non-ITDM who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention and to assess the efficacy and safety of an everolimus-eluting stent vs a paclitaxel-eluting stent based on insulin use status. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A prespecified analysis was conducted of the Taxus Element vs Xience Prime in a Diabetic Population (TUXEDO) clinical trial, which enrolled 1830 patients with ITDM and non-ITDM from June 23, 2011, to March 12, 2014. Patients were randomized 1:1 to receive either a paclitaxel-eluting stent or an everolimus-eluting stent. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The primary end point was target vessel failure, defined as the composite of cardiac death, target vessel myocardial infarction, or ischemia-driven target vessel revascularization at 1 year after the intervention. RESULTS Among the 1830 patients (1377 male) in the TUXEDO trial, 747 patients (40.8%) were receiving insulin (ITDM group). Compared with the 1083 patients with non-ITDM, those with ITDM had a significant increase in target vessel failure (42 [5.6%] vs 36 [3.3%]; P = .02), death or myocardial infarction (43 [5.8%] vs 35 [3.2%]; P = .009), death (26 [3.5%] vs 18 [1.7%]; P = .01), and subacute stent thrombosis (8 [1.1%] vs 3 [0.3%]; P = .03). However, in a propensity score-adjusted analysis to account for baseline differences between the 2 groups, the differences in outcomes were no longer significant. In patients with ITDM, everolimus-eluting stents reduced the rate of target vessel failure (13 of 382 [3.4%] vs 29 of 365 [7.9%]; P = .007), major adverse cardiac events (15 of 382 [3.9%] vs 30 of 365 [8.2%]; P = .01), myocardial infarction (5 of 382 [1.3%] vs 16 of 365 [4.4%]; P = .01), stent thrombosis (2 of 382 [0.5%] vs 11 of 365 [3.0%]; P = .009), target lesion revascularization (4 of 382 [1.0%] vs 19 of 365 [5.2%]; P = .001), and target vessel revascularization (4 of 382 [1.0%] vs 19 of 365 [5.2%]; P = .001) when compared with paclitaxel-eluting stents. The results largely trended in the same direction in patients with non-ITDM (P > .05 for the interaction). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Patients with ITDM had a significant increase in the risk of cardiovascular events in unadjusted models that was largely attenuated after propensity score adjustment. Everolimus-eluting stents reduced the rate of cardiovascular events, including stent thrombosis, when compared with paclitaxel-eluting stents in patients with ITDM.

Abstract
Background Little is known about the achievement of low density lipoprotein cholesterol
(LDL-C) targets in patients at cardiovascular risk receiving stable
lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) in countries outside Western Europe. Methods This cross-sectional observational study was conducted in 452 centres (August
2015−August 2016) in 18 countries in Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, the
Middle East and Latin America. Patients (n = 9049) treated
for ≥3 months with any LLT and in whom an LDL-C measurement on stable LLT
was available within the previous 12 months were included. Results The mean±SD age was 60.2 ± 11.7 years, 55.0% of patients were men and the
mean ± SD LDL-C value on LLT was 2.6 ± 1.3 mmol/L (101.0 ± 49.2 mg/dL). At
enrolment, 97.9% of patients were receiving a statin (25.3% on high
intensity treatment). Only 32.1% of the very high risk patients versus 51.9%
of the high risk and 55.7% of the moderate risk patients achieved their
LDL-C goals. On multivariable analysis, factors independently associated
with not achieving LDL-C goals were no (versus lower dose) statin therapy, a
higher (versus lower) dose of statin, statin intolerance, overweight and
obesity, female sex, neurocognitive disorders, level of cardiovascular risk,
LDL-C value unknown at diagnosis, high blood pressure and current smoking.
Diabetes was associated with a lower risk of not achieving LDL-C goals. Conclusions These observational data suggest that the achievement of LDL-C goals is
suboptimal in selected countries outside Western Europe. Efforts are needed
to improve the management of patients using combination therapy and/or more
intensive LLTs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most drug-eluting stent (DES) trials have excluded patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The efficacy of DES implantation in patients with CKD is therefore not known. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the outcomes with DES vs bare-metal stent (BMS) implantation in patients with CKD. METHODS AND RESULTS MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were searched for studies including at least 100 patients with CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤60 mL/min/1.73 m² or on dialysis) treated with DES or BMS and followed for at least 1 month and reporting outcomes of all-cause mortality, cardiovascular (CV) mortality, myocardial infarction (MI), target-vessel revascularization (TVR), and stent thrombosis (ST). Thirty-one studies (5 randomized) with 91,817 participants (49,081 DES and 42,736 BMS) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. DES was associated with lower all-cause mortality (relative risk [RR], 0.77; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.71-0.84), CV mortality (RR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.38-0.70), MI (RR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.86-0.95), TVR (RR, 0.61; 95% CI, 0.47-0.80), and numerically lower ST (RR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.55-1.01) when compared with BMS. Analysis by study type (RCTs vs non-RCTs) showed similar results for most outcomes (Pinteraction>.05) except all-cause mortality, where there was no difference between DES vs BMS in RCTs (Pinteraction=.04). The effects were greater with 2nd-generation DES vs BMS (for example, ST: RR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.20-0.72). CONCLUSIONS In patients with CKD, the available evidence, largely from observational studies, suggests significantly fewer events with DES vs BMS with even a lower ST rate with 2nd-generation DES. These findings should be tested in large, randomized trials.

Abstract
We have performed percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for 7 subclavian (4 stenoses, 3 occlusions) and 2 innominate (both stenoses) artery obstructions in 7 patients by percutaneous femoral approach in all, and ipsilateral percutaneous brachial puncture in 2, patients. Initial success was obtained in 4 of the 6 stenoses (2 subclavian and both innominate) but in none of the 3 occlusions. Three of the 4 subclavian stenoses were located proximal to the vertebral artery origin and antegrade vertebral flow without subclavian steal was present in 2 of these lesions. Three patients had complications during the procedure. Two of them developed symptoms and signs of cerebral embolization. Both had shown antegrade vertebral flow and no evidence of subclavian steal in the initial angiogram. The third patient developed angina pectoris. The follow-up period ranged from 4 to 18 months (mean 10.8 months) and no re-stenosis was detected. Angioplasty appears suitable for management of a selected group of patients with nonocclusive lesions in whom subclavian steal phenomenon is evident in the initial diagnostic angiogram. The patients with antegrade vertebral flow are at a high risk of cerebral embolization during angioplasty.
