Abstract
In order to explore the computerized tomography (CT) based on three-dimensional reconstruction of coronary artery model, the functional evaluation was made after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). In this study, 90 patients with coronary heart disease who received elective PCI were selected. The blood flow reserve fraction (FFR) and SYNTAX score were calculated by three-dimensional reconstruction of CT images, followed up for 2-4 years. According to the SYNTAX score, 0-22 points were defined as the low group (28 cases), 23-32 points as the medium group (33 cases), and 33 points as the high group (29 cases). In this paper, the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of CT images of three-dimensional reconstructed coronary artery model are 91%, 73%, and 62%, respectively. The follow-up results showed that the incidence of major adverse cerebrovascular events in the high group was significantly higher than that in the low group and the middle group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that SYNTAX score was related to serum total cholesterol (r = 0.234, P=0.003), triglyceride (r = 0.237, P=0.014), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r = 0.285, P=0.004), and ApoB/ApoA1 (R = 0.004). In this study, FFR is calculated by CT images based on three-dimensional reconstruction of coronary artery model, which can provide support for the diagnosis and treatment of coronary heart disease. SYNTAX score can be used as a risk predictor for PCI patients with coronary heart disease.

Abstract
Bifurcation coronary artery disease is common as the development of atherosclerosis is facilitated by altered endothelial shear stress. Multiple anatomical and physiological factors need to be considered when treating bifurcation lesions. To achieve optimal results, various stenting techniques have been developed, each with benefits and limitations. In this state-of-the-art review we describe technically important characteristics of bifurcation lesions and summarise the evidence supporting contemporary bifurcation techniques.

Abstract
The choice between coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for myocardial revascularization in patients with left main disease (LMD) is controversial. There is general agreement that CABG is appropriate for all patients, and PCI is acceptable for those with low-to-intermediate anatomic complexity. However, there is uncertainty about the relative safety and efficacy of PCI in patients with more complex LMD and with comorbidities such as diabetes. No direct comparison trial has focused on revascularization in diabetic patients with LMD, and thus conclusions on the topic are subject to the limitations of subgroup analysis, as well as the heterogeneous exclusion criteria, and methodologies of individual trials. The available evidence suggests that among diabetics, CABG is superior in patients with LMD with SYNTAX (SYNergy between percutaneous coronary intervention with TAXus and dardiac surgery) score greater than 33, distal bifurcation disease, or multivessel disease. PCI may be appropriate in those with less-extensive disease or those with limited life expectancy or high surgical risk.

Abstract
In humans, the most common anatomic variation of the left main (LM) stem is represented by its distal division in 3 branches (LM trifurcation) instead of 2. LM trifurcation disease accounts for ≈10% to 15% of all LM diseases and is often managed by cardiac surgery. Over the last decades, due to the improvement of interventional material and techniques, percutaneous coronary intervention started gaining acceptance to treat patients with LM disease including those with trifurcated anatomy. Yet, LM trifurcation stenosis with its intrinsic anatomic complexity (3 branches, at least 4 angles, wide variability in branch size and disease) is recognized as a challenging lesion subset for percutaneous coronary intervention. In this review, we summarize available data about LM trifurcation anatomy, its influence on percutaneous coronary intervention feasibility, and the evidence collected regarding the different technical options (including trissing balloon inflation).
