Coronary artery stents revolutionized the practice of interventional cardiology after they were
first introduced in the mid-1980s. Since then, there have been significant developments in …

Despite all the benefits of drug-eluting stents (DES), concerns have been raised over their
long-term safety, with particular reference to stent thrombosis. In an effort to address these …

Drug-eluting stents have proven to be effective in reducing the risk of late restenosis. In
order to achieve a controlled and prolonged release of the antiproliferative agent, current …

Since the first human procedure in the late 1980s, vascular stent implantation has been
accepted as a standard form of treatment of atherosclerosis. Despite their tremendous …

Restenosis following stent implantation diminishes the procedure's efficacy influencing long-
term clinical outcomes. Stent-based drug delivery emerged a decade ago as an effective …

Objectives: We aimed to explore the relationship of neointimal thickness (NT) to shear stress
(SS) after implantation of sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) and paclitaxel-eluting stents (PES) …

Inkjet-printing technology was used to apply biodegradable and biocompatible polymeric
coatings of poly (d, l-lactide) with the antiproliferative drugs simvastatin (SMV) and paclitaxel …

The introduction of drug-eluting stents (DES) significantly reduced angiographic restenosis
and the clinical need for revascularization following percutaneous coronary intervention …

A new generation of drug eluting coronary stents are undergoing clinical trial evaluation and
being introduced into clinical practice. These technologies comprise a broad range of …

In this study, our own stent designed by Chonnam National University Hospital (designated
as CNUH stent) which is considered an elastic behavior as second trial was subjected to …
