Dr Aaysha Cader (@aayshacader) is joined by Professor Gregory Lip to discuss antithrombotic strategies after left atrial appendage occlusion.
🫀 Reduced-dose DOAC, DAPT or SAPT? They explore the clinical outcomes and why reduced-dose DOAC may offer mechanistic advantages over antiplatelet therapy.

How can an entrapped coronary balloon be retrieved when conventional snaring fails?
This case describes a novel buddy balloon push-and-pull technique that successfully dislodged and retrieved a fractured balloon trapped in a heavily calcified RCA lesion.

What is the optimal blood pressure target in AMI-related cardiogenic shock?
The randomised NORshock trial will compare a permissive hypotension strategy (MAP 55 mmHg) with standard noradrenaline-mediated MAP targets (≥65 mmHg), assessing whether reduced vasopressor use can improve clinical outcomes.

What is the optimal antithrombotic strategy after LAAO?
In this large real-world analysis, reduced-dose DOAC and SAPT were associated with more favourable outcomes than DAPT, while reduced-dose DOAC showed no clear advantage over SAPT—supporting simplified, individualised post-LAAO management.

How well does the ACEF score predict outcomes in coronary artery disease patients undergoing PCI?
This meta-analysis of 20 studies and 41,255 patients found good predictive performance for MACE and mortality.

Does CT-FFR-guided management have different implications in women and men with stable CAD?
In this TARGET trial subanalysis, CT-FFR guidance reduced unnecessary invasive angiography in men, while women showed a lower 2-year MACE rate versus standard care.

How often does coronary microvascular disease go undetected?
In symptomatic patients referred for invasive angiography after coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA), coronary microvascular disease (CMD) was common and frequently present despite normal myocardial perfusion on 82Rb-PET.

🎙️Editor's Choice Podcast is back!
@aayshacader is joined by Niels van Royen & Rick Volleberg to discuss the PECTUS-obs study.
🫀 High-risk plaques with negative FFR were associated with ~2× higher 5-year MACE, highlighting the value of combining imaging and physiology to assess non-culprit lesions.

50 Years of Coronary Angioplasty: Learning from the Past. Shaping the Future.
In five decades, what began with coronary angioplasty has grown into interventional cardiology, transforming cardiovascular care through research, innovation and technological progress. As the field evolved, so did the need for education, exchange and shared learning.
Join us in 2027 to celebrate this milestone.🎈 https://t.co/OPA8J77TJ0
