Hybrid IVUS-OCT systems can overcome the limitations associated with each technology and integrate the advantages of both modalities. Recently, a novel hybrid imaging system (PANOVISION) was approved for clinical use and tested in this noniferiority trial.

Final poll results: with 677 responses, after PREVENT, 35% are ready to treat non-flow-limiting asymptomatic vulnerable plaques with preventive PCI to improve prognosis. 65% are not yet believers. 4 other trials are ongoing and more are being designed.

Can we trust the findings of the PREVENT trial, just published in The Lancet? To be very frank, I am not sure... Is it remotely credible a trial in which PCI with DES perfomed in high-risk lesions yields a cumulative 2-year rate of cardiac death, MI, TVR, or hospitalisation for

Despite clear rationale…Routine physiology using pressure wire has not been beneficial across stable or acs patients now in RIPCORD2, FUTURE, FAME3, FLOWER & here. FAMOUS did show benefit….. there is so much we don’t understand!?

In a study including 508 patients with myocardial ischemia with no obstructive coronary arteries undergoing invasive coronary function testing with CBF, CFR, and IMR assessment, slow flow as defined with a cTFC >25 was poorly associated with results of invasive coronary function

I think now that the BCIS group has made consensus for OHCA we are now in a position to tackle CGS and learn from yours and others experience. We should reconvene BCIS group curzen Nilesh Pareek John Davies Tom Quinn etc. Tom Johnson Paul Rees Ellie Gudde Abdul Mozid

Nuts are a superfood

I encourage all my patients to eat nuts

Yet more evidence showing this is wise

Some may debate the CI that goes from 0.79-1.16, but, clinically, we have to draw the line of ... this is negative not underpowered somewhere

For me, I am happy to stop prescribing beta-blockers postMI

I know; it's a frequentist analysis. But the priors are very pessimistic.
