Abstract
AIM The "2024 ACC/AHA/AACVPR/APMA/ABC/SCAI/SVM/SVN/SVS/SIR/VESS Guideline for the Management of Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease" provides recommendations to guide clinicians in the treatment of patients with lower extremity peripheral artery disease across its multiple clinical presentation subsets (ie, asymptomatic, chronic symptomatic, chronic limb-threatening ischemia, and acute limb ischemia). METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted from October 2020 to June 2022, encompassing studies, reviews, and other evidence conducted on human subjects that was published in English from PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, CINHL Complete, and other selected databases relevant to this guideline. Additional relevant studies, published through May 2023 during the peer review process, were also considered by the writing committee and added to the evidence tables where appropriate. STRUCTURE Recommendations from the "2016 AHA/ACC Guideline on the Management of Patients With Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease" have been updated with new evidence to guide clinicians. In addition, new recommendations addressing comprehensive care for patients with peripheral artery disease have been developed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to evaluate temporal trends in the frequency of revascularization and associated outcomes in patients with diabetes mellitus and critical limb ischemia (CLI). BACKGROUND Little is known about outcomes following revascularization for CLI in patients with diabetes mellitus. METHODS Temporal trends in hospitalization for CLI among patients with diabetes were determined using the 2002-2015 National Inpatient Sample database. Propensity score matching was used to compare patients who underwent revascularization with those who did not and, separately, to compare those who underwent endovascular versus surgical revascularization. The main study outcome was in-hospital mortality. RESULTS The analysis included 1,222,324 hospitalizations. The number of hospitalizations for CLI among patients with diabetes increased over time (ptrend < 0.001). There was an increase in the use of lower extremity revascularization, paralleled by a decline in in-hospital mortality during the study period. In the matched cohort, patients who were revascularized had lower in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR]: 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.63 to 0.72) and major amputation (OR: 0.25; 95% CI: 0.24 to 0.27) compared with those who were treated medically. Compared with endovascular revascularization, those who underwent surgical revascularization had higher rates of in-hospital mortality (OR: 1.18; 95% CI: 1.04 to 1.35) but lower rates of major amputation (OR: 0.75; 95% CI: 0.70 to 0.81). Major bleeding, blood transfusion, post-operative infection, respiratory complications, discharges to nursing facility, and longer length of hospital stay were also more common among those who underwent surgery. CONCLUSIONS In this national analysis of patients with DM and CLI, we demonstrated an increase in hospitalization for CLI among patients with diabetes in the United States. Although in-hospital mortality decreased over time regardless of the treatment strategy used, this outcome occurred less frequently among those who underwent revascularization than not. Compared with surgical revascularization, endovascular revascularization was associated with lower in-hospital mortality but higher rates of major amputation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Medical school simulations are often designed for a limited number of students to maximize engagement and learning. To ensure that all first-year medical students who wished to join had an opportunity to participate, we designed a novel method for larger groups. PATIENTS AND METHODS We devised a low technology "Orchestra Leader's" chart approach to prominently display students' roles, chosen by lottery. During simulation, the chart was mounted on an intravenous pole and served as a group organizational tool. A course instructor prompted students using the chart to accomplish the course objectives in a logical order. Real-life cardiologists and gastroenterologists provided the students with expert subspecialty consultation. We analyzed 125 anonymous student evaluation ratings for 3 years (2017-2019) with a range of 8 to 19 students per laboratory session. RESULTS Our 2017-2019 larger group sessions were all rated as excellent (1.26, Mean, SD ±.510) on the Likert scale where 1.0 is excellent and 5.0 is poor. There were no statistically significant differences in overall ratings among the 2017, 2018 and 2019 sessions. The subspecialists were uniformly rated as excellent. Verbatim free-text responses demonstrated resounding student appreciation for the role assignment by lottery method. CONCLUSION We designed a novel, "Orchestra Leader's" chart approach for accommodating larger groups in a multidisciplinary simulation laboratory using role assignment by lottery, roles depicted on an organizational chart, and expert instructor prompting. Our consistently excellent ratings suggest that our methods are useful for achieving well-rated larger group simulation laboratories.

Abstract
There is a paucity of data on the outcomes and revascularization strategies for critical limb ischemia (CLI) among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hence, we conducted a nationwide analysis to evaluate the trends and outcomes of hospitalizations for CLI with CKD. The National Inpatient Sample database (2002-2015) was queried for hospitalizations for CLI. The trends of hospitalizations for CLI with CKD were reported, and endovascular versus surgical revascularization strategies for CLI with CKD were compared. The main study outcome was in-hospital mortality. The analysis included 2,139,640 hospitalizations for CLI, of which 484,224 (22.6%) had CKD. There was an increase in hospitalizations for CLI with CKD (Ptrend = 0.01), but a reduction in hospitalizations for CLI without CKD (Ptrend = 0.01). Patients with CLI and CKD were less likely to undergo revascularization compared with patients without CKD. CLI with CKD had higher rates of in-hospital mortality (4.8% vs 2.5%, adjusted odds ratio (OR) 2.01; 95% CI 1.93-2.11) and major amputation compared with no CKD. Revascularization for CLI with CKD was associated with lower rates of mortality (3.7% vs 5.3%, adjusted-OR 0.78; 95% CI 0.72-0.84) and major amputation compared with no revascularization. Compared with endovascular revascularization, surgical revascularization for CLI with CKD was associated with higher rates of in-hospital mortality (4.7% vs 2.7%, adjusted-OR 1.67; 95% CI 1.43-1.94). In conclusion, this contemporary observational analysis showed an increase in hospitalizations for CLI among patients with CKD. CLI with CKD was associated with higher in-hospital mortality compared with no CKD. Compared with endovascular therapy, surgical revascularization for CLI with CKD was associated with higher in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
Transradial artery access for percutaneous coronary intervention is associated with lower bleeding and vascular complications than transfemoral artery access, especially in patients with acute coronary syndromes. A growing body of evidence supports adoption of transradial artery access to improve acute coronary syndrome-related outcomes, to improve healthcare quality, and to reduce cost. The purpose of this scientific statement is to propose and support a "radial-first" strategy in the United States for patients with acute coronary syndromes. This document also provides an update to previously published statements on transradial artery access technique and best practices, particularly as they relate to the management of patients with acute coronary syndromes.

Abstract
Endovascular aneurysm intervention (EVAI) is one of the most commonly performed vascular interventions for abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Data regarding 30-day readmission rates after EVAI are poorly reported in the literature. We used the United States Nationwide Readmission Database from 2010 to 2014 to identify all patients ≥18 years who were readmitted within 30 days after a hospital discharge for EVAI of the AAA. Incidence, etiologies, predictors of 30-day readmission, and trends of readmission rates were analyzed. In 138,014 patients who survived to discharge after an EVAI procedure for AAA, 14,146 (10.24%) were readmitted within 30 days. Median time to readmission was 11 days. Cardiac causes (16.34%) followed by infections (15.40%) and vascular complications (12.86%) were common etiologies of readmission. Greater patient age, female sex, coexisting co-morbidities such as heart failure, atrial fibrillation, peripheral vascular disease, lung disease, and chronic kidney disease were independent predictors of 30-day readmission. In-hospital complications during an index admission such as major bleeding or vascular complications were also predictive of 30-day readmission. Trend analysis showed a progressive decline in readmission rates from 11.3% in 2010 to 9.6% in 2014 (ptrend <0.0001), 20% lower odds in 2014 compared with 2010 (odds ratio 0.80, 95% confidence interval 0.72 to 0.87, p <0.0001). In this contemporary study of EVAI for AAA, nearly 1 in 10 patients was readmitted within 30 days of discharge after an index admission. Cardiac complications and infections were common causes of readmission within 30 days.

Abstract
Background:
Thirty-day readmission rates have gained increasing importance as a key quality metric. A significant number of patients are hospitalized for the management of critical limb ischemia (CLI), but limited data are available on the incidence, predictors, and causes of 30-day readmission after hospitalization for CLI.
Methods:
Hospitalizations for a primary diagnosis of CLI during which patients underwent endovascular or surgical therapy (revascularization and/or amputation) and were discharged alive were identified in the 2013 to 2014 Nationwide Readmissions Databases. Incidence, reasons, and costs of 30-day unplanned readmissions were determined. Hierarchical logistic regression models were used to identify independent predictors of 30-day readmissions.
Results:
We included 60 998 (national estimate, 135 110) index CLI hospitalizations (mean age, 68.9±11.9 years; 40.8% women; 24.6% for rest pain, 37.2% for ulcer, and 38.2% for gangrene). The 30-day readmission rate was 20.4%. Presentation with ulcer or gangrene, age ≥65 years, female sex, large hospital size, teaching hospital status, known coronary artery disease, heart failure, diabetes mellitus, chronic kidney disease, anemia, coagulopathy, obesity, major bleeding, acute myocardial infarction, vascular complications, and sepsis were identified as independent predictors of 30-day readmission. Mode of revascularization was not independently associated with readmissions. Infections (23.5%), persistent or recurrent manifestations of peripheral artery disease (22.2%), cardiac conditions (11.4%), procedural complications (11.0%), and endocrine issues (5.7%) were the most common reasons for readmission. The inflation-adjusted aggregate costs of 30-day readmissions for CLI during the study period were $624 million.
Conclusions:
Approximately 1 in 5 patients hospitalized for CLI and undergoing revascularization is readmitted within 30 days. Risk of readmission is influenced by CLI presentation, patient demographics, comorbidities, and in-hospital complications, but not by the mode of revascularization.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Carotid artery stenting (CAS) is typically performed using embolic protection devices (EPDs) as a means to reduce the risk of procedure-related stroke. In this study, we compared procedural morbidity and mortality associated with distal (D-EPD) vs. proximal (P-EPD) protection. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were queried from January 1998 through May 2015. Only studies comparing (D-EPD) and (P-EPD) were included. Two independent reviewers selected and appraised studies and extracted data in duplicate. Random-effects meta-analysis was used to pool outcomes across studies. Heterogeneity of treatment effect among studies was assessed using the I2 statistics. Publication bias was assessed using inspection of funnel plots. The primary endpoints included 30-day mortality and stroke. Secondary endpoints included new cerebral lesions on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) and contralateral lesions on DW-MRI. RESULTS A total of 12,281 patients were included from 18 studies (13 prospective and 5 retrospective) comparing (D-EPD) and (P-EPD) in the setting of CAS. The mean patient age was 69 years and 64% of patients were male. No evidence of publication bias was detected. There was no significant difference between the two modalities in terms of the risk of stroke (risk difference [RD] 0.0, 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.01 to 0.01) or mortality (RD 0.0, 95% CI -0.01 to 0.01) nor was there any difference in the incidence of new cerebral lesions on DW-MRI or contralateral DW-MRI lesions. CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing CAS, both D-EPD and P-EPD provide similar levels of protection from peri-procedural stroke and 30 days mortality. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Since 1980, the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA) have translated scientific evidence into clinical practice guidelines with recommendations to improve cardiovascular health. These guidelines, based on systematic methods to evaluate and classify evidence, provide a cornerstone of quality cardiovascular care. In response to reports from the Institute of Medicine1 ,2 and a mandate to evaluate new knowledge and maintain relevance at the point of care, the ACC/AHA Task Force on Clinical Practice Guidelines (Task Force) modified its methodology.3 –5 The relationships among guidelines, data standards, appropriate use criteria, and performance measures are addressed elsewhere.5

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bivalirudin, has been shown to have comparable efficacy and better safety profile when compared to unfractionated heparin (UFH) in percutaneous coronary interventions. Bivalirudin's safety in carotid artery stenting (CAS) was associated with better outcomes than heparin in some studies. In this Meta analysis we examine the hemorrhagic and ischemic outcomes associated with Bivalirudin compared to UFH during CAS. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted with the electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL. Random-effects meta-analysis method was used to pool risk ratio (RR) for both Heparin and Bivalirudin with 95% confidence interval (CI). Study outcomes included hemorrhagic complications; major/minor bleeding and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) as well as ischemic complications including ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, and 30 day mortality. RESULTS A total of four studies were included enrolling 7,784 patients. Compared to UFH, Bivalirudin was associated with significantly lower major bleeding events with a relative risk (RR) of 0.53 (95% CI: 0.35-0.80; I2 = 0%). Minor bleeding events were significantly lower in the Bivalirudin group with a RR of 0.41 (95% CI: 0.2-0.82; I2 = 0%). Looking into other outcomes, there were no significant differences between anticoagulation strategies in terms of ischemic stroke (RR 0.8, with 95% CI: 0.60-1.06), intracranial hemorrhage (RR 0.73 with 95% CI: 0.27-1.98), myocardial infarction (RR 1.01 with 95% CI: 0.59-1.73) or 30 day mortality (RR 0.83 with 95% CI: 0.47-1.47). CONCLUSION Compared to UFH, Bivalirudin is associated with lower bleeding risk when used during CAS. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Since 1980, the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and American Heart Association (AHA) have translated scientific evidence into clinical practice guidelines with recommendations to improve cardiovascular health. These guidelines, based on systematic methods to evaluate and classify evidence, provide a cornerstone of quality cardiovascular care. In response to reports from the Institute of Medicine1,2 and a mandate to evaluate new knowledge and maintain relevance at the point of care, the ACC/AHA Task Force on Clinical Practice Guidelines (Task Force) modified its methodology.3–5 The relationships among guidelines, data standards, appropriate use criteria, and performance measures are addressed elsewhere.5

Abstract
Successful endovascular intervention for femoral-popliteal (FP) arterial disease provides relief of claudication and offers limb-salvage in cases of critical limb ischemia. Technologies and operator technique have evolved to the point where we may now provide effective endovascular therapy for a spectrum of lesions, patients, and clinical scenarios. Endovascular treatment of this segment offers a significant alternative to surgical revascularization, and may confer improved safety for a wide range of patients, not solely those deemed high surgical risk. Although endovascular therapy of the FP segment has historically been hampered by high rates of restenosis, emerging technologies including drug-eluting stents, drug-coated balloons, and perhaps bio-absorbable stent platforms, provide future hope for more durable patency in complex disease. By combining lessons learned from clinical trials, international trends in clinical practice, and insights regarding emerging technologies, we may appropriately tailor our application of endovascular therapy to provide optimal care to our patients. This document was developed to guide physicians in the clinical decision-making related to the contemporary application of endovascular intervention among patients with FP arterial disease.

Abstract
Studies investigating bone marrow stem cell therapy (BMSCT) in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy have yielded mixed results. A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials of BMSCT in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy was undertaken to assess its efficacy and the best route of administration. The MEDLINE, Embase, Cumulative Index to Nursing & Allied Health Literature, and Cochrane Library databases were searched through April 2012 for randomized controlled trials that investigated the impact of BMSCT and its route of administration on left ventricular (LV) function in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy and systolic dysfunction. Of the 226 reports identified, 10 randomized controlled trials including 519 patients (average LV ejection fraction [LVEF] at baseline 32 ± 7%) were included in the analysis. On the basis of a random-effects model, BMSCT improved the LVEF at 6 months by 4.48% (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.43% to 6.53%, p = 0.0001). A greater improvement in the LVEF was seen with intramyocardial injection compared with intracoronary infusion (5.13% [95% CI 3.17% to 7.10%], p <0.00001, vs 2.32% [95% CI -2.06% to 6.70%], p = 0.30). Overall, there were reductions in LV end-systolic volume of -20.64 ml (95% CI -33.21 to -8.07, p = 0.001) and LV end-diastolic volume of -16.71 ml (95% CI -31.36 to -2.06, p = 0.03). In conclusion, stem cell therapy may improve LVEF and favorably remodel the heart in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy. On the basis of current limited data, intramyocardial injection may be superior to intracoronary infusion in patients with LV systolic dysfunction.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT Cerebrovascular disease remains a leading cause of morbidity, mortality, and health care expenditure in the United States. Approximately 80% of strokes are ischemic in origin, with 20% to 25% due to atherosclerotic disease of the carotid artery. It is well established that untreated, symptomatic carotid stenosis confers a 25% risk of stroke within 2 years, and that asymptomatic carotid stenosis > 60% is associated with an 11% stroke risk at 5 years. Over the past six decades, surgical revascularization with carotid endarterectomy, when performed by experienced surgeons, has been demonstrated to be effective in reducing stroke risk in patients with severe stenosis. During the same time, medical therapy has improved considerably, and endovascular therapy with carotid angioplasty and stenting has emerged as an important alternative strategy that may play a significant role in reducing the risk of stroke in patients with carotid disease. In this review, we examine the current evidence regarding optimal medical therapy, endarterectomy, and stenting for the management of patients with carotid stenosis. Armed with these data, we may tailor our approach to optimize care based on patient- and lesion-specific considerations.
