Introducing the percutaneous aorto-coronary bypass graft. The VECTOR procedure revascularizes the left main coronary artery using retrograde and antegrade steps: a retrograde wire exits the left main (distal graft), an electrosurgical wire exits the aortic root (proximal graft), a guidewire rail is created, and a stent graft is delivered from the aorta to the left main. What could possibly go wrong?

Wellness is NOT:
- Massages
- Supplements
- Creams
- Facials

Wellness IS about:
- The time to think clearly
- The time to rest
- The time to sleep
- The time to cook
- The time to move in nature
- The time to be with loved ones

Time >> Things

Now we know: if you embarque into bifurcation stenting and want/need to treat LARGE side-branches, POT-KISS-POT is associated with better OCT results. Great 🙏 & 👋 to Gemelli’s interventional cardiology team !!!!!

In 1958, this man’s heart kept stopping—20 times a day.

Doctors had no solution.

Then his wife demanded an experimental surgery that had only been tested on dogs.

What happened next changed medicine forever. 🧵

61 yrs ago today, radiologist Charles Dotter opened a blocked femoral artery with a catheter. He called it "Angioplasty." Rejected by U.S. surgeons, the concept was embraced in Europe & resulted in Gruentzig's balloon which revolutionized the treatment of CAD. #AngioHistory

Low-Carbohydrate High-Fat Diets, Lipid Levels, and Cardiovascular Risk

These findings demonstrate associations between a self-reported LCHF dietary pattern, increased cholesterol and ketone body concentrations, and increased risk of MACE.
These results remained significant after including individuals on lipid-lowering therapy, excluding individuals with diabetes, applying alternative definitions of carbohydrate restriction, and including only individuals with >2 dietary recalls.
Also, individuals with a high PRS reporting an LCHF diet were more likely to exhibit hypercholesterolemia by LDL-C and apolipoprotein B standards

Excited to share our new study in @JAMACardio❗

⚠️ In the largest meta-analysis to date of 23 clinical trials (n=7407), regression of atherosclerotic plaque by 1% was associated with a 25% ⬇️ in MACE odds. Change in % atheroma volume could be a surrogate marker for MACE🫀
