Outcomes investigating the Absorb bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention showed more adverse ischaemic events through 5 years compared with cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stents. However, the period of excess risk ended at 3 years.In this short interview, Dr David Power (Mount Sinai Hospital, New York, US) discusses the final report… View more

Three-year findings from a sirolimus-eluting bioresorbable vascular scaffold (BVS) for the treatment of infrapopliteal lesions show great primary patency rates in lesions with an average lesion length of 3cm and a high rate of freedom from clinically-driven target lesion revascularisation.Dr Michel Bosiers (Inselspital Bern, Bern, CH) joins us to discuss the prospective, multicentre, single-arm,… View more

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are known to reduce major atherosclerotic cardiovascular events, but the full extent of their mechanisms is still being explored. The SEMA-VR CardioLink-15 trial investigated whether semaglutide affects the levels of circulating vascular regenerative (VR) cells, which are involved in vessel repair and may modulate atherothrombotic risk.¹… View more

A new study suggests that the health of the retinal microvasculature could serve as an indicator for subclinical coronary atherosclerosis in asymptomatic individuals with elevated cardiovascular risk. The findings, published in JAMA Cardiology, show a significant association between reduced retinal vascular density, measured by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), and the presence and… View more
