Percutaneous coronary intervention with drug‐eluting stent implantation vs. minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) in patients with left anterior descending coronary artery stenosis
DES implantation and MIDCAB surgery showed similar rates of myocardial infarction, the need for repeated revascularization, and death during 6 months of follow‐up, however, DES implantation resulted in lower average number of hospital stays and similar postoperative complications.
Associations among plasma adiponectin, hypertension, left ventricular diastolic function and left ventricular mass index
It is suggested that a decrease in plasma adiponectin concentration is associated with the progression of left ventricular hypertrophy with diastolic dysfunction.

Cilostazol treatment, with greater anti-inflammatory effect, inhibited the progression of carotid IMT without increasing the risk of bleeding in patients with ACS during the 2-year follow-up.
The relationship between mechanical properties of carotid artery and coronary artery disease.
Both CIMT and CCA strain were associated with CAD and the evaluation of mechanical properties of CCA by ultrasonographic 2D strain imaging could therefore be more effective than that by CimT for the assessment of CAD.
