PCI before TAVR? In older CAD patients, deferral may be the best approach
Patients with coronary artery disease and severe aortic stenosis often undergo PCI before TAVR. According to new data presented at ACC.26, however, deferring PCI is associated with comparable outcomes as well as a reduced bleeding risk.

Michael Garshick, MD, examines the role of inflammation in coronary disease development, detailing how this risk factor can be detected and treated.

Researchers from the University of Michigan scanned 52 patients at multiple field strengths to make the comparison.

The underground life of an Amphisbaenia has not been easy to study.
