Background We hypothesized that in patients with stable coronary artery disease and
stenosis, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) performed on the basis of the fractional …

Background The preferred initial treatment for patients with stable coronary artery disease is
the best available medical therapy. We hypothesized that in patients with functionally …

Background We hypothesized that fractional flow reserve (FFR)–guided percutaneous
coronary intervention (PCI) would be superior to medical therapy as initial treatment in …

Aims Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is the reference standard for the assessment of the
functional significance of coronary artery stenoses, but is underutilized in daily clinical …

Background In patients with multivessel coronary artery disease who are undergoing
percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), coronary angiography is the standard method for …

Background: Previous studies found that percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) does not
improve outcome compared with medical therapy (MT) in patients with stable coronary artery …

Background The use and clinical outcomes of fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement in
patients with stable ischemic heart disease (SIHD) are uncertain, as prior studies have been …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate whether fractional flow reserve (FFR)
should be performed for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) to guide the …

Aims To assess the effect of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary
intervention (PCI) with contemporary drug-eluting stents on the composite of cardiac death …

Background: We evaluated the prognosis of deferred and revascularized coronary stenoses
after fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement to assess its revascularization threshold in …
