Updated BEST results: No major difference between EES or CABG for multivessel disease

14 Oct 2022 by

In patients with multivessel coronary artery disease, the risk of any-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), or target vessel revascularization (TVR) did not vary according to whether patients underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with everolimus-eluting stents (EES) or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), extended follow-up of the BEST* trial showed.

Add-on digital therapeutics more cost-effective than standard treatment for essential hypertension

13 Oct 2022

The combination of digital therapeutics (DTx) with the treatment-as-usual (TAU) strategy for essential hypertension is more cost-effective than TAU alone, a recent Japan study has found.

Early noninferior to delayed NOAC initiation after stroke in AF patients

13 Oct 2022

Early initiation of nonvitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) after acute ischaemic stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) appears to yield similar outcomes when compared with delayed initiation, as shown in the results of the TIMING* study.
