Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the results of endovascular therapy for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) in patients categorized under the gray and yellow zones of the patient risk, limb severity, and anatomic pattern (PLAN) concept over a 2-year follow-up period. METHODS Patients who underwent endovascular therapy for peripheral artery disease and presented with CLTI from February 2017 to February 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were grouped into yellow and gray zones based on the PLAN concept. Preoperative and postoperative walking distances, Rutherford classes, and postoperative target vessel patency rates were recorded and compared between the groups. Follow-up evaluations were performed at 1, 6, 12, and 24 months post-procedure. RESULTS Of the 387 patients evaluated, the yellow and gray groups comprised 88 patients each. The overall patency rates were similar between the groups (84 (95.45%) vs. 81 (92.05%), respectively). The occlusion-/stenosis-free survival times, amputation-free survival time, and mean survival time were not significantly different. However, the gray group had a significantly higher number of atherectomy interventions (74 vs. 59) and crosser devices used (62 vs. 42). CONCLUSION Endovascular therapy is an effective treatment option for patients in the gray zone of the PLAN color coding system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vessel preparation for endovascular treatment (EVT) is important but because the contributory factors for favorable outcomes are not yet known, we conducted the present study to elucidate the factors associated with sufficient vessel preparation for severely calcified femoropopliteal (FP) lesions.Methods and Results: This was a single-center retrospective observational study of 97 patients (mean age, 75±8 years, 76% male) with 106 de novo severely calcified FP lesions who underwent EVT under intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) evaluation. The lesion definition was 360° of superficial calcification on IVUS. The primary outcome measure was sufficient vessel preparation, which was defined as successful cracking of severely calcified lesions evaluated by IVUS after predilation. The mean lesion length was 200±103 mm, and chronic total occlusion was present in 38% of patients. According to the greater difference between the preballoon size and the lumen diameter of the severely calcified lesion, the frequency of sufficient vessel preparation increased (odds ratio, 4.68; 95% confidence interval, 2.09-10.49; P<0.01). Balloon type (noncompliant, P=0.80; scoring: P=0.25) and pressure (P=0.27) were non-contributory. CONCLUSIONS The difference between the lumen diameter at the severely calcified FP lesion site and the preballoon dilatation diameter was the sole factor contributing to sufficient vessel preparation.

Abstract
Objective To compare the efficacy of angioplasty using drug-eluting balloons (DEB) compared with plain old balloon angioplasty (POBA) to reduce the rate of restenosis. Methods This prospective, single-centre, single-blinded, 1:1 randomized, clinical trial enrolled patients that had primary or restenotic lesions in native upper extremity arteriovenous (AV) fistulas or at the graft-venous anastomosis. Patients were randomized to angioplasty with a POBA or a DEB. The primary effectiveness endpoints were freedom from target lesion revascularization (TLR) and functional status of access circuit at 12 months. Results A total of 42 (28 male, 14 female; age range, 42–83 years) patients were enrolled. Patients were followed for 12 months. No significant differences were detected between the POBA and DEB groups regarding total number of TLR procedures (31 versus 36, respectively), freedom from TLR (3 versus 4, respectively) and functional status of the access circuit at 12 months (14 of 20 patients [70%] versus 17 of 22 patients [77%], respectively). Conclusion This clinical trial did not demonstrate any significant differences between DEB angioplasty and standard balloon angioplasty when treating dysfunctional haemodialysis access.

Clinical Impact of the Size of Drug-Coated Balloon Therapy on Restenosis Rate in Femoropopliteal Lesions. J Endovasc Ther 2022; 30:269-280.

Abstract
Purpose: Although the size of drug-coated balloons (DCBs) is determined according to the vessel diameter during femoropopliteal (FP)-endovascular therapy (EVT), the measurements of the vessel diameter vary among modalities and its definitions. The aim of this study was to reveal whether the DCB size fitting (1) angiographically-measured lumen diameter (Angio-lumen size), (2) intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-measured lumen diameter (IVUS-lumen size), or (3) IVUS-measured external elastic membrane (EEM) diameter (IVUS-EEM size) would be beneficial in restenosis occurrence. Materials and Methods: This retrospective, single-center study included 231 de novo FP lesions in 165 patients with peripheral artery disease treated with IN.PACT Admiral DCB under IVUS evaluation. The reference vessel diameter was evaluated as the lumen or EEM diameter at the healthy site distal to the lesion. We retrospectively determined whether the DCB size was close to (ie, equal to or different by <0.5 mm from) Angio-lumen size, IVUS-lumen size, and IVUS-EEM size. The association of the size of DCB with restenosis risk was investigated. Results: The mean lesion length was 13 ± 9 cm and the prevalence of chronic total occlusion was 18%. During a mean follow-up period of 17 ± 9 months, restenosis occurred in 26% of lesions. Lesions treated with a DCB of IVUS-EEM size had a lower 2 year restenosis rate than those treated with a DCB over/under IVUS-EEM size (19.7 ± 5.7% vs 34.5 ± 4.7%, p=0.02 by the log-rank test), while the restenosis rate was not significantly different between DCBs of Angio-lumen size or IVUS-lumen size and those over/under the size (both p>0.05). The multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that DCBs of IVUS-EEM size were independently associated with a reduced risk of restenosis (adjusted hazard ratio 0.50; 95% confidence interval 0.27–0.95; p=0.03). Conclusion: The DCBs of IVUS-EEM size, but not of Angio-lumen size or IVUS-lumen size, were associated with a reduced risk of restenosis after FP-EVT. Determining the DCB size according to IVUS-evaluated EEM diameter would be potentially beneficial in restenosis occurrence.
