IMPORTANCE - Human genetics and studies in experimental models support a key role of monocyte-chemoattractant protein–1 (MCP-1) in atherosclerosis. Yet, the associations of circulating MCP-1 levels with risk of coronary heart disease and cardiovascular death in the general population remain largely unexplored. OBJECTIVE - To explore whether circulating levels of MCP-1 are associated with risk of inciden...

BACKGROUND - Although bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is not considered a "sweet spot" to trans-catheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), a certain number of BAV underwent TAVR. Whether BAV phenotype affects outcomes following TAVR remains debated. We aimed at evaluating the impact of BAV phenotype on procedural and clinical outcomes after TAVR using new generation trans-catheter heart valves (THVs). ...

BACKGROUND - Data on the comparative efficacy and safety of ticagrelor versus prasugrel in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are limited. We assessed the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor versus prasugrel in a head-to-head comparison in STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI. METHODS - In this pre-specified subgro...
