OBJECTIVES We used individual patient data from 4 of the largest contemporary coronary
bypass surgery trials to evaluate differences in long-term outcomes when radial artery (RA) …

Background Saphenous vein grafts (SVG) are the most commonly used conduits in coronary
artery bypass grafting (CABG). Graft failure is observed in up to 50% of SVG at 10 years after …

First, the female excess in MACCE after CABG could be explained by the higher rates of
acute complications of CABG in women. Gaudino et al. reported that women had a 28 …

Background Off‐pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) previously demonstrated its
potential benefits in women; however, robotic‐assisted OPCAB was scarcely studied …

Opioid analgesia is the cornerstone of anaesthetic management during cardiac surgery.
However, a subset of patients use opioids persistently after three months of surgery. We …

Background There is a lack of evidence about the predictive role of serum cardiac troponin I
(cTnI) on the long-term adverse outcomes of acute type B aortic dissection (aTBAD) patients …

Background and Objectives The study aims to test the hypotheses that a higher burden of
cerebral small vascular disease (CSVD) predicts major adverse cardiac and …

Purpose There are marked gender differences in all etiologies of advanced heart failure. We
sought to determine whether there is evidence of gender‐specific decision making for …

Introduction Robotic‐assisted coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) outcomes in patients
with a high society of thoracic surgery (STS) score in urgent settings remain hindered …

Long stented segments were associated with poor outcomes (lower acute success and
higher restenosis and thrombosis rates) from the early experience with stent implantation. 1 …
