چکیده

BACKGROUND Previous studies have not addressed vessel response >5 mm distal to the stent edge. Therefore, we investigated the impact of paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES) versus bare metal stents (BMS) on distal vessels in the serial intravascular ultrasound substudies of TAXUS IV, V, and VI. METHODS AND RESULTS TAXUS IV, V, and VI were double-blind, randomized, multicenter, controlled trials comparing PES with BMS. In their intravascular ultrasound substudies, 103 patients (54 BMS, 49 PES) had intravascular ultrasound data ≥10 mm distal to the stent both postprocedure and at 9 months follow-up. Baseline characteristics were similar between the 2 groups. Multilevel modeling was used to account for the variation between patients and within patients among distal segments. Effect of stent type, time, and their interaction was tested using a mixed effect model controlling for distal segments. Postprocedure lumen and vessel were not significantly different between PES versus BMS; however, lumen (P=0.006) and vessel (P=0.0001) were significantly reduced for BMS at 9-month follow-up but not for PES. Conversely, there was a significant plaque increase from postprocedure to 9-month follow-up for PES (P=0.0008) but not for BMS. These vessel responses were statistically consistent among 0- to 5-mm versus 5- to 10-mm versus 10- to 15-mm segments distal to the stent in both groups. CONCLUSIONS PES use was associated with plaque increase from baseline to 9-month follow-up >5 mm distal to the stent along with positive remodeling, whereas BMS use was associated with negative remodeling and no plaque increase. These vessel responses were consistent in 5-mm long subsegments: 0 to 5 mm versus 5 to 10 mm versus 10 to 15 mm distal to the stent. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION URL: HTTP://WWW.CLINICALTRIAL.GOV.

Predictive factors of restenosis after coronary implantation of sirolimus- or paclitaxel-eluting stents.

BACKGROUND The efficacy of drug-eluting stents in reducing restenosis risk has not been uniform across patient subsets. Identifying predictive factors of restenosis may help improve outcomes after percutaneous coronary interventions. METHODS AND RESULTS All patients who underwent successful implantation of sirolimus- or paclitaxel-eluting stents in native vessels for de novo lesions between A...

Randomized trial of paclitaxel- and sirolimus-eluting stents in small coronary vessels.

AIMS Sirolimus- and paclitaxel-eluting stents effectively reduce restenosis in small coronary vessels. The relative efficacy of these drug-eluting stents in this high-risk subset is not known. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 360 patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention for de novo lesions in native coronary vessels with a diameter of <2.80 mm received randomly paclitaxel-eluting ...

Safety and efficacy of coronary drug-eluting stents in octogenarians.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES The effectiveness of coronary drug-eluting stents has not been fully studied in very elderly patients who have clinical features that predispose them to side effects and long-term adverse events. METHODS The safety and efficacy of drug-eluting stents were studied in a historical cohort of consecutive octogenarian patients who underwent percutaneous coronary interve...

Impact of Stent Size Selection on Acute and Long-Term Outcomes After Drug-Eluting Stent Implantation in De Novo Coronary Lesions.

BACKGROUND Although significant undersizing often results in incomplete stent apposition or underexpansion, the possible impact of oversized stent implantation on arterial wall injury has not been systematically investigated with drug-eluting stents. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of stent oversizing on acute and long-term outcomes after drug-eluting stents implantation in ...

Impact of Heterogeneous Overlapping Drug-Eluting Stents on the Arterial Responses of Rabbit Iliac Arteries: A Comparison With Overlapping Bare Metal Stents

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Although the use of heterogeneous overlapping drug-eluting stents (DES) is not uncommon in clinical practice, whether the implantation sequences of heterogeneous DES will influence the endothelialization or arterial responses differently remains unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-one rabbits were randomized to receive overlapping stents in the iliac artery for 3 m...
