Objectives High thrombus burden (HTB) is an independent predictor of no flow or low reflow
during a primary percutaneous coronary intervention. This study aimed to compare …

Background Primary percutaneous coronary intervention is used to restore blood flow in the
infarct-related coronary artery, followed by immediate stenting to prevent reocclusion. Stents …

Introduction: Routine thrombectomy has been advocated for ST‐segment‐elevation
myocardial infarction (STEMI), but it is unknown how many patients present with a large …

Background The minimalist immediate mechanical intervention (MIMI) strategy aims to
restore normal anterograde flow in the culprit artery (by using manual thrombectomy or small …

Background No-/slow-reflow indicates worse outcomes in ST-elevation myocardial infarction
(STEMI) patients with high thrombus burden. We examined whether deferred stenting (DS) …

Background: Available data from randomized trials on thrombectomy in patients with ST-
elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have shown favorable trends in myocardial …

The presence of thrombus is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Our aim was to
develop a classification of thrombus burden (TB) in patients with ST-segment elevation …

Objectives We conducted a meta‐analysis of studies comparing deferred stenting strategy
versus the conventional approach with immediate stenting in patients with ST elevation …

Background A number of studies have evaluated the efficacy of deferred stenting vs
immediate stenting in patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction, but the …

Background Target vessel revascularization (TVR) may compromise the benefits of primary
percutaneous coronary intervention in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) …
