Abstract
BACKGROUND Direct coronary arterial evaluation via computed tomography (CT) angiography is the most accurate noninvasive test for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, diagnostic accuracy is limited in the setting of severe coronary calcification or stents. Ultra-high-resolution CT (UHR-CT) may overcome this limitation, but no rigorous study has tested this hypothesis. METHODS The CORE-PRECISION is an international, multicenter, prospective diagnostic accuracy study testing the non-inferiority of UHR-CT compared to invasive coronary angiography (ICA) for identifying patients with hemodynamically significant CAD. The study will enroll 150 patients with history of CAD, defined as prior documentation of lumen obstruction, stenting, or a calcium score ≥400, who will undergo UHR-CT before clinically prompted ICA. Assessment of hemodynamically significant CAD by UHR-CT and ICA will follow clinical standards. The reference standard will be the quantitative flow ratio (QFR) with <0.8 defined as abnormal. All data will be analyzed in independent core laboratories. RESULTS The primary outcome will be the comparative diagnostic accuracy of UHR-CT vs. ICA for detecting hemodynamically significant CAD on a patient level. Secondary analyses will focus on vessel level diagnostic accuracy, quantitative stenosis analysis, automated contour detection, in-depth plaque analysis, and others. CONCLUSION CORE-PRECISION aims to investigate if UHR-CT is non-inferior to ICA for detecting hemodynamically significant CAD in high-risk patients, including those with severe coronary calcification or stents. We anticipate this study to provide valuable insights into the utility of UHR-CT in this challenging population and for its potential to establish a new standard for CAD assessment.

Abstract
Pazopanib is a multi-kinase inhibitor used to treat advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma and advanced soft tissue tumors; however, side effects such as diarrhea and hypertension have been reported, and dosage adjustment based on drug concentration in the blood is necessary. However, measuring pazopanib concentrations in blood using the existing methods is time-consuming; and current dosage adjustments are made using the results of blood samples taken at the patient's previous hospital visit (approximately a month prior). If the concentration of pazopanib could be measured during the waiting period for a doctor's examination at the hospital (in approximately 30 min), the dosage could be adjusted according to the patient's condition on that day. Therefore, we aimed to develop a method for rapidly measuring blood pazopanib concentrations (in approximately 25 min) using common analytical devices (a tabletop centrifuge and a spectrometer). This method allowed for pazopanib quantification in the therapeutic concentration range (25-50 μg/mL). Additionally, eight popular concomitant medications taken simultaneously with pazopanib did not interfere with the measurements. We used the developed method to measure blood concentration in two patients and obtained similar results to those measured using the previously reported HPLC method. By integrating it with the point of care and sample collection by finger pick, this method can be used for measurements in pharmacies and patients' homes. This method can maximize the therapeutic effects of pazopanib by dose adjustment to control adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety and feasibility of using 1-month dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) followed by P2Y12inhibitor monotherapy for patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with thin-strut biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stents (BP-DES) in daily clinical practice remain uncertain.Methods and Results: The REIWA region-wide registry is a prospective study conducted in 1 PCI center and 9 local hospitals in northern Japan. A total of 1,202 patients who successfully underwent final PCI using BP-DES (Synergy: n=400; Ultimaster: n=401; Orsiro: n=401), were enrolled in the registry, and received 1-month DAPT followed by P2Y12inhibitor (prasugrel 3.75 mg/day or clopidogrel 75 mg/day) monotherapy. The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular and bleeding events at 12 months, including cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI), definite stent thrombosis (ST), ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, and Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) major or minor bleeding. Based on the results of a previous study, we set the performance goal at 5.0%. Over the 1-year follow-up, the primary endpoint occurred in 3.08% of patients, which was lower than the predefined performance goal (Pnon-inferiority<0.0001). Notably, definite ST occurred in only 1 patient (0.08%) within 1 year (at 258 days). No differences were observed in the primary endpoint between stent types. CONCLUSIONS The REIWA region-wide registry suggests that 1-month DAPT followed by P2Y12inhibitor monotherapy is safe and feasible for Japanese patients with BP-DES.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to explore an ideal method for hydrogel spacer insertion by analyzing the efficacy and safety of our originally developed apex expansion method. MATERIALS AND METHODS Overall, 100 patients with low- and intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy were included. A hydrogel spacer was inserted in 64 and 36 patients using the conventional and apex expansion methods, respectively. For dosimetry, we trisected the rectum into the upper rectum, middle rectum, and lower rectum on the sagittal section of magnetic resonance imaging. We compared the dose to each part of the rectum between the two methods using dose-volume histograms. Genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicity assessments were conducted until 3 months of follow-up. RESULTS The whole rectal dose in the apex expansion method group was lower than that in the conventional method group, which was significant in all dose regions (V5-V35). Similarly, in the apex expansion method group, the dose to the middle rectum was lower in the low- to high-dose region (V10-V35), and the dose to the lower rectum was lower in the middle- to high-dose region (V15-35). No Grade ≥ 3 toxicity or procedure-related complications were observed. Additionally, Grade 2 genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicities during the treatment showed no significant differences between the two methods. CONCLUSION The apex expansion method may be safe and effective in achieving a more efficient rectal dose reduction by expanding the anterior perirectal space in the prostatic apex area.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The geographical disparity in the pathophysiological pattern of coronary artery disease (CAD) among patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is unknown. OBJECTIVES To elucidate the geographical variance in the pathophysiological characteristics of CAD. METHODS Physiological indices derived from angiography-based fractional flow reserve pullbacks from patients with chronic coronary syndrome enrolled in the ASET Japan (n = 206) and ASET Brazil (n = 201) studies, which shared the same eligibility criteria, were analysed. The pathophysiological patterns of CAD were characterised using Murray law-based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR)-derived indices acquired from pre-PCI angiograms. The diffuseness of CAD was defined by the μQFR pullback pressure gradient index. RESULTS Significant functional stenoses pre-PCI (μQFR ≤0.80) were more frequent in ASET Japan compared to ASET Brazil (89.9% vs. 67.5%, p < 0.001), as were rates of a post-PCI μQFR <0.91 (22.1% vs. 12.9%, p = 0.013). In the multivariable analysis, pre-procedural μQFR and diffuse disease were independent factors for predicting a post-PCI μQFR <0.91, which contributed to the different rates of post-PCI μQFR ≥0.91 between the studies. Among vessels with a post-PCI μQFR <0.91, a consistent diffuse pattern of CAD pre- and post-PCI occurred in 78.3% and 76.7% of patients in ASET Japan and Brazil, respectively; only 6.3% (Japan) and 10.0% (Brazil) of vessels had a major residual gradient. Independent risk factors for diffuse disease were diabetes mellitus in ASET Japan, and age and male gender in Brazil. CONCLUSIONS There was geographic disparity in pre-procedural angiography-based pathophysiological characteristics. The combined pre-procedural physiological assessment of vessel μQFR and diffuseness of CAD may potentially identify patients who will benefit most from PCI.

Abstract
Objective We aimed to reveal detailed on-treatment lipid profiles, lipid-related surrogate markers, and factors predicting failure to achieve the guideline-recommended lipid management goal following guideline-recommended statin treatment in Japanese patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods and Results Sixty AMI patients who underwent coronary intervention and had received rosuvastatin 10 mg/day since the start of their hospitalization were assessed for on-treatment lipid-related profiles, including high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sd LDL-C), and lipoprotein (a), at the 12-week follow-up. Patients who failed to achieve the guideline-recommended lipid management at 12 weeks were defined as the "unachieved group." Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the predictors of inclusion in the unachieved group after high-dose statin treatment. Despite the use of high-dose rosuvastatin, 61.7% of the enrolled AMI patients were included in the unachieved group. In addition, the unachieved group had higher sd LDL-C and lipoprotein (a) levels than the achieved group. Logistic regression analyses demonstrated that low baseline high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and the absence of diabetes were predictors of inclusion in the unachieved group. Conclusion More than half of the Japanese AMI patients treated with rosuvastatin 10 mg/day did not achieve the guideline-recommended goal of lipid management and still had lipid-related residual risk at 12 weeks. Particular attention should be paid to patients with low baseline HDL-C levels and those without diabetes with regard to their on-treatment lipid profiles.

Abstract
Objectives We aim to evaluate the risk of recurrence after neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical cystectomy, particularly in ypT2 disease in patients with urothelial carcinoma, because it is not clear if all eligible patients with high-risk muscle-invasive urothelial carcinoma should be treated with adjuvant nivolumab. Materials and Methods We analysed the radiological and clinicopathological features, including cT and ypT stages, of 197 patients who had undergone two to four cycles of cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical cystectomy without adjuvant chemotherapy. We stratified the risk of postoperative recurrence by these factors. Results The median observation period was 29.6 (interquartile range, 11.4-71.7) months, and disease recurrence was observed in 58 patients. Multivariate analysis revealed that ypT stage (P = 0.019) and lymphovascular invasion (P = 0.015) were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence. The ypT2 group (n = 38) had significantly better recurrence-free survival than the ypT3 group (n = 41) (median recurrence-free survival: not reached vs. 13.4 months, respectively, P = 0.005). In ypT2 disease, the cT2 and ypT2 group (n = 15), which was diagnosed as cT2 preoperatively and then diagnosed as ypT2 postoperatively, had significantly better recurrence-free survival than the cT3/4 and ypT2 group (n = 23) (median recurrence-free survival: not reached vs. 63.1 months, respectively, P = 0.034). There was no significant difference in recurrence-free survival between the ypT ≤ 1 (n = 106) and the cT2 and ypT2 groups (median recurrence-free survival: not reached in both, P = 0.962). Conclusion Patients with cT2 and ypT2 stage have a relatively low risk of recurrence and thus have a lower need for adjuvant nivolumab, particularly those with ypT2.

Abstract
Objective This study examined variations in in-hospital mortality causes and identified independent mortality predictors among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) with and without diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods We examined factors influencing in-hospital mortality in a single-center retrospective observational study. Separate multivariate analyses were conducted for both groups to identify independent predictors of in-hospital mortality. Patients This study included consecutive patients admitted to Iwate Medical University Hospital between January 2012 and December 2017 with a diagnosis of AMI. Results Of 1,140 patients meeting the AMI criteria (average age: 68.2±12.8 years old, 75% men), 408 (35.8%) had diabetes. The DM group had a 1.87-times higher 30-day mortality rate, a lower prevalence of ST-elevated MI (56.6% vs. 65.3% in non-DM, p=0.004), and more frequent non-cardiac causes of death (32% vs. 14% in non-DM, p=0.046) than the non-DM group. Independent predictors of in-hospital mortality in both groups were cardiogenic shock (CS) [DM: hazard ratio (HR) 6.59, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.90-14.95; non-DM: HR 4.42, 95% CI 1.99-9.77] and renal dysfunction (DM: HR 5.64, 95% CI 1.59-20.04; non-DM: HR 5.92, 95% CI 1.79-19.53). Among patients with DM, a history of stroke was an additional independent predictor of in-hospital mortality (HR 2.59, 95% CI 1.07-6.31). Conclusion Notable disparities were identified in the causes of death and predictive factors of mortality between these two groups of patients with AMI. To further improve AMI outcomes, individualized management and prioritizing non-cardiac comorbidities during hospitalization may be crucial, particularly in patients with DM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Even with intracoronary imaging-guided stent optimisation, suboptimal haemodynamic outcomes post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) can be related to residual lesions in non-stented segments. Preprocedural assessment of pathophysiological coronary artery disease (CAD) patterns could help predict the physiological response to PCI. AIMS The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between preprocedural pathophysiological haemodynamic patterns and intracoronary imaging findings, as well as their association with physiological outcomes immediately post-PCI. METHODS Data from 206 patients with chronic coronary syndrome enrolled in the ASET-JAPAN study were analysed. Pathophysiological CAD patterns were characterised using Murray law-based quantitative flow ratio (μQFR)-derived indices acquired from pre-PCI angiograms. The diffuseness of CAD was defined by the pullback pressure gradient (PPG) index. Intracoronary imaging in stented segments after stent optimisation was also analysed. RESULTS In the multivariable analysis, diffuse disease - defined by the pre-PCI μQFR-PPG index - was an independent factor for predicting a post-PCI μQFR <0.91 (per 0.1 decrease of PPG index, odds ratio 1.57, 95% confidence interval: 1.07-2.34; p=0.022), whereas the stent expansion index (EI) was not associated with a suboptimal post-PCI μQFR. Among vessels with an EI ≥80% and post-PCI μQFR <0.91, 84.0% of those vessels had a diffuse pattern preprocedure. There was no significant difference in EI between vessels with diffuse disease and those with focal disease. The average plaque burden in the stented segment was significantly larger in vessels with a preprocedural diffuse CAD pattern. CONCLUSIONS A physiological diffuse pattern preprocedure was an independent factor in predicting unfavourable immediate haemodynamic outcomes post-PCI, even after stent optimisation using intracoronary imaging. Preprocedural assessment of CAD patterns could identify patients who are likely to exhibit superior immediate haemodynamic outcomes following PCI.

Abstract
The region behind the coronary calcium could not be visualized by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) because of acoustic shadow. However, some pathological studies have shown that IVUS delineated the vessel border behind thin coronary calcium sheets. This study aimed to reveal whether recent IVUS can visualize the region behind thin coronary calcium sheets. Using 534 cross-sectional optical frequency domain images (OFDI), including severe calcified coronary lesions, calcium sheet thickness was measured by every 1°. Accordingly, the visibility of the vessel border behind the coronary calcium sheet was evaluated using 60-MHz IVUS images, which were longitudinally linked with OFDI ones. After carefully coordinating with the axial position, the association between the IVUS-derived permeability of the coronary calcium sheet and calcium thickness was evaluated. The maximum and mean calcium thickness by OFDI was 0.88 ± 0.39 and 0.62 ± 0.30 mm, respectively. By 60-MHz IVUS, 12.1% of the coronary calcium sheets had permeable segments. Comparing between OFDI and IVUS images, 48.6% of the coronary calcium sheets with maximum thickness ≤ 0.3 mm were sometimes permeable by 60-MHz IVUS, whereas most > 0.5 mm thick calcium sheets were impermeable. In the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the best cutoff values for the maximum and mean thickness of permeable calcium were 0.48 and 0.31 mm, respectively. Thus, 60-MHz IVUS can occasionally visualize the region behind a thin coronary calcium sheet. When using 60-MHz IVUS, this finding may be a predictive marker of calcium sheet with a thickness of < 0.5 mm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have demonstrated the benefit of intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for preventing longitudinal geographic miss (LGM). However, it is yet unclear whether IVUS guidance is useful for robotic-PCI (robotic-assisted perctaneous coronary intervention [R-PCI]). METHODS A total of 58 consecutive patients with stable angina who underwent IVUS-guided R-PCI were enrolled. The stent landing position was angiographically marked using a balloon marker before stenting, followed by measurements of the expected stent length using balloon pullback. Subsequently, prestenting IVUS was performed to determine stent landing. All pre-PCI IVUS images were assessed for lesion length and percent plaque volume (%PV) using both IVUS and angiographic marking. LGM was defined as a residual %PV >50% at either the distal or proximal stent edge, any stent edge dissection, or additional stent deployment immediately after stenting. RESULTS The included patients had an average age of 67.1 ± 10.1 years. IVUS guidance had significantly longer lesion lengths compared with angiographic marking. Based on IVUS-guided stent deployment, nine cases exhibited LGM immediately after stenting. IVUS-marked landing points had a significantly smaller %PV and significantly larger lumen area compared with those for angiography. CONCLUSION IVUS-guided R-PCI was well-tolerated and may be better at preventing LGM compared with angiography-guided R-PCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been reported that patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) transferred to low-volume primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) hospitals (<115/year) in low population density areas experience higher in-hospital mortality rates. This study compared in-hospital outcomes of patients admitted to high-volume primary PCI hospitals (≥115/year) with those for other regional general hospitals.Methods and Results: Retrospective analysis was conducted on data obtained from 2,453 patients with AMI admitted to hospitals in Iwate Prefecture (2014-2018). Multivariate analysis revealed that the in-hospital mortality rate of AMI among patients in regional general hospitals was significantly higher than among patients in high-volume hospitals. However, no significant difference in mortality rate was observed among patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI. Although no significant difference was found in the in-hospital mortality rate of patients with Killip class I STEMI, significantly lower in-hospital mortality rates were observed in patients admitted in high-volume hospitals for Killip classes II, III, and IV. CONCLUSIONS Although in-hospital outcomes for patients with STEMI undergoing primary PCI were similar, patients with heart failure or cardiogenic shock exhibited better in-hospital outcomes in high-volume primary PCI hospitals than those in regional general hospitals.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effectiveness of postoperative medication for the prevention of late graft failure is controversial. We conducted the present study to investigate whether cilostazol improved the mid-term outcomes after infrainguinal autologous vein bypass for chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI). METHODS From April 1994 to March 2022, we performed 590 de novo infrainguinal bypass procedures using autologous vein grafts (AVGs) in three hospitals. The bypass grafts were classified according to the postoperative prescription of cilostazol. The loss of graft patency and major adverse limb events (MALEs) were set as endpoints. Patients who died within 30 days and grafts that lost primary patency within 30 days after surgery were excluded. Data up to 3 years were analyzed. The cumulative primary patency (PP), assisted primary patency (AP), secondary patency (SP), and freedom from MALE (ffMALE) rates were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared between the cilostazol group and the non-cilostazol group. After a propensity score matching, same statistical analyses were performed. In addition, a Cox proportional hazards regression analysis that included preoperative factors, intraoperative factors, and postoperative medications was performed to identify whether cilostazol is an independent predictor for the outcomes. RESULTS A total of 523 AVGs met inclusion criteria. Kaplan-Meier curves showed that the cilostazol group was superior to the non-cilostazol group in all outcomes, while the cilostazol group was superior to the non-cilostazol group in AP and SP after a propensity score matching. A multivariable analysis showed that non-use of cilostazol was identified as an independent predictor for loss of AP, SP, and ffMALE. CONCLUSIONS Cilostazol improved the mid-term outcomes after infrainguinal autologous vein bypass.

Abstract
Objectives: To estimate the effectiveness of balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) for severe aortic stenosis (SAS) in patients scheduled for open surgery for chronic limb-threatening ischemia. Materials and Methods: Clinical data of patients from 2012 to 2018 were retrieved and summarized. The early outcomes and survival after BAV and open bypass were retrospectively investigated. Results: BAV was performed on seven dialysis patients. One patient died of mesenteric infarction 3 days after BAV; however, six patients were able to undergo open bypass at an average of 10 days (7-19 days) after BAV. One patient died of hemorrhagic shock before the wound healed; five patients underwent limb salvage. Four of these five patients could not undergo surgical aortic open valve replacement owing to advanced age or poor cardiac function and died within 2 years. Only one patient who underwent radical surgery after a bypass survived more than 4 years. Conclusion: BAV enabled open surgery and limb salvage in patients with SAS. Although BAV alone cannot ensure long-term survival, the procedure will continue to be important as a bridge technique to radical surgery, such as transcatheter aortic valve implantation and aortic valve repair, which are often avoided owing to infection.

Abstract
A series of acylsulfenyl iodides (RCOSI) were synthesized by the reactions of carbothioic acid group 11-16 element derivatives with iodine or N-iodosuccinimides in moderate to good yields. The structure of the PhCOSI was nearly square planar based on the X-ray analysis, where the C[double bond, length as m-dash]O⋯I distance (3.153(5) Å) was significantly shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii of the atoms (Σr vdW), indicating close contact within the molecule. The distances between an iodine atom and the neighbouring two iodine atoms were also less than Σr vdW, perhaps due to the energy lowering effect of the interactions. The acylsulfenyl iodides readily reacted with alkenes and alkynes to give the expected addition products in moderate to good yields at approximately 0 °C. A new synthesis of acylated sulfines, sulfenamides and sulfenochalcogenides using acylsulfenyl iodides is also described. Theoretical calculations were performed on PhCOSI with the Sapporo-TZP(+1s1p) basis sets at the MP2 level, which perfectly reproduced the observed structures. Similar calculations were performed on the reactions, exemplified by those of MeCOSI and CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]CH2, together with those of MeSI and CH2[double bond, length as m-dash]CH2. Mechanisms for both reactions were proposed, which were very similar. The proposed mechanism for the former was understood based on that of the latter. For both mechanisms, the episulfuranes and episulfonium ions played an important role. The dynamic and static nature of the bonds in the COSI group of PhCOSI and MeCOSI were elucidated based on QTAIM dual functional analysis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of the intra-operative flow waveform and the flow volume with graft prognosis of the infra-inguinal vein bypass. METHODS This was a retrospective study of intra-operative flowmetry performed for infra-inguinal autologous vein bypass between 2011 and 2020. Flow waveforms were classified as type 0 - IV according to the Kyushu University (KU) classification. The patients (n = 340) were divided into three groups based on the flow waveform predicting the graft patency: type 0/I (long patency), type II (no early occlusion but late occlusion possible), and type III/IV (early occlusion). The graft occlusion rates of popliteal artery bypass (PAB) and infrapopliteal artery bypass (IPAB) within 30 days of surgery were compared between type 0/I + II and type III/IV groups, while the midterm graft patency rates were compared between type 0/I and type II groups. Additionally, a multivariate analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for early and late graft occlusion. RESULTS The early graft occlusion rates of type 0/I + II and type III/IV groups were 3.9% and 0%, respectively, (p = 1.0) for PAB, and 5.3% and 46.2%, respectively, (p < .001) for IPAB. The two year primary patency rates of type 0/I and type II groups were 91% and 75%, respectively, (p = .030) for PAB, and 58% and 63%, respectively, (p = .72) for IPAB. Independent risk factors for early occlusion were none in PAB and flow waveform (type IV) in IPAB. Independent risk factors for patency loss in PAB were flow waveform (type II), end stage renal disease, and dual antiplatelet use, and those in IPAB were older age, women, lower flow volume, and iterative bypass. CONCLUSION Intra-operative flowmetry is useful for predicting the graft prognosis in infra-inguinal vein bypass and this is dependent on the distal target artery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In cases of intermittent claudication (IC) where traditionally noninvasive management yields unsatisfactory results, revascularization strategy in IC patients is generally decided based on anatomical considerations and the availability of a saphenous vein graft. Life expectancy should also be considered. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the 11-item modified frailty index (mFI-11) and the overall survival (OS) in patients with IC who underwent vascular bypass surgery to facilitate revascularization strategy selection. METHODS We reviewed the records of 144 consecutive patients (153 lower limbs) who underwent infrainguinal bypass for IC between 2011 and 2020. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on their mFI-11 score: high frailty (H), mFI score >0.3; and low frailty (L), mFI score ≤0.3. The OS was compared among the 2 groups. Rates of graft patency and freedom from major adverse limb event (ffMALE) were also determined and compared. RESULTS Five-year OS in the L and H groups was 92% and 55% (P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that mFI, age, and end-stage renal disease were independent predictors of OS. Five-year rates of primary and secondary patency and ffMALE for vein grafts were 81%, 91%, and 94%, respectively; those for prosthetic grafts were 65%, 80%, and 84%, respectively; the differences were not significant. CONCLUSIONS The mFI-11 was a helpful tool in predicting OS for patients with IC who underwent vascular bypass surgery. Those with H should not undergo open revascularization; however, for IC patients who have either not responded to a regimen of exercise and medication, or have specifically requested a more aggressive approach, obtaining a good score in frailty assessment is useful in determining whether or not bypass surgery would be a viable option.

Abstract
Cabozantinib is an oral small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has become a standard of care for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, cabozantinib is associated with a high rate of adverse events. Therefore, individualised cabozantinib administration and monitoring could help maximise its therapeutic efficacy and avoid serious adverse events. This study developed and validated a method to determine cabozantinib concentration in plasma using HPLC-UV. Sorafenib, an internal standard, was added to the plasma sample containing cabozantinib. A calibration curve for cabozantinib showed good linearity (R2 = 1.00), between 25 and 4,000 ng/ml. The recovery rate was above 92.1%, and the intra- and inter-day coefficients of variation were smaller than 5.2 and 6.8%, respectively. Then, we applied the method for monitoring cabozantinib blood levels in three patients with advanced RCC who were taking cabozantinib at a dose of 20, 40 or 60 mg/day. Grade 3 adverse events were more likely to occur in patients with high dosing and blood level of cabozantinib. Owing to its simplicity, the developed method can be used in general hospitals, and is expected to help maximise drug efficacy and minimise serious adverse events in many patients with RCC undergoing cabozantinib treatment.

Abstract
The early and mid-term arterial healing profile of biodegradable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting stents (BP-EES) is unclear, especially in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) culprit lesions. This study aimed to compare early- and mid-term arterial healing between durable polymer-coated everolimus-eluting stents (DP-EES) and BP-EES in STEMI patients. In a prospective, multicenter, non-inferiority trial, STEMI patients were randomized to receive BP-EES (n = 60) or DP-EES (n = 60). The primary endpoint of this study was the mean percentage of covered struts (%covered struts) on FD-OCT 2 weeks post-PCI. Key secondary endpoints included the percentage of uncovered struts, frequency of abnormal intra-stent tissue, and percentage of malapposed struts by FD-OCT 2 weeks and 12 months post-PCI. They underwent serial frequency-domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) evaluations immediately after percutaneous coronary intervention, and at 2 weeks and at 12 months after the procedure. The primary endpoint of %covered struts at 2 weeks was 71.4% in BP-EES and 72.3% in DP-EES [risk difference - 0.94%, lower limit of one-sided 95% confidence interval (CI) - 5.6; Pnon-inferiority = 0.0756]. At 12 months, the mean percentage of uncovered struts was significantly lower [1.73% (95% CI 0.28-3.17) vs. 4.81% (95% CI 3.52-6.09); p = 0.002], and the average malapposed volume was significantly smaller in the BP-EES group than in the DP-EES group (p = 0.002). At 12 months, BP-EES had a significantly larger average neointimal area with a significantly smaller average intra-stent tissue unevenness score than DP-EES, suggesting more uniform neointimal coverage with BP-EES. Strut coverage was comparable between BP-EES and DP-EES at 2 weeks. Non-inferiority could not be proven because of an insufficient sample size. The significantly better arterial healing with BP-EES at 12 months suggests a safer profile for STEMI culprit lesions.Trial registration: jRCTs022180024 https://jrct.niph.go.jp/en-latest-detail/jRCTs022180024.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The vessel healing process after implantation of biodegradable polymer (BP) and durable polymer (DP) everolimus-eluting stent (EES) in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) lesions remains unclear.Methods and Results: We conducted a multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial to compare early (2 weeks) and mid-term (12 months) vascular responses after implantation of BP-EES vs. DP-EES in STEMI patients. In this prespecified subanalysis, serial coronary angioscopy (CAS) analysis was performed in 15 stents in the BP-EES arm (n=10 patients) and 14 stents in the DP-EES arm (n=10 patients). At the 2-week follow-up, there was no significant difference in the estimated marginal means of the neointimal coverage grade (primary endpoint) between the 2 arms (mean [±SE] 0.00±0.00 in both arms; P>0.999). There were no significant differences between the BP-EES and DP-EES groups in the yellow color grade (1.046±0.106 vs. 0.844±0.114, respectively; P=0.201) or the presence of thrombus (77.8% vs. 88.8%, respectively; P=0.205). At 12 months, competent strut coverage, defined as yellow color grade ≤1, no thrombus, and a neointimal coverage grade ≥1 was achieved more frequently in the BP-EES than DP-EES arm (85.2% vs. 53.1%; adjusted odds ratio 2.11 [95% confidence interval 1.26-3.53]; P=0.023). CONCLUSIONS Neointimal coverage 2 weeks after implantation of BP-EES and DP-EES in STEMI lesions was comparable on CAS evaluation. However, at 1 year, BP-EES was independently associated with competent strut coverage.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The biological effects of low-dose radiation from cardiac imaging or intervention remain largely unknown. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of ionized radiation from cardiac catheterization on genomic DNA integrity and inflammatory cytokines in patients and operators.
Methods
Peripheral mononuclear cells (MNCs) were isolated from patients (n=52) and operators (n=35) before and after coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention. Expression of gammaH2AX, a marker for DNA double-strand breaks, was measured by immunofluorescence. Dicentric chromosomes (DICs), a form of chromosome aberrations, were assayed using a fluorescent in situ hybridization technique.
Results
In the patient MNCs, the numbers of gammaH2AX foci and DICs increased after cardiac catheterization by 101±75% and 28±99%, respectively (P<0.05 for both). The mRNA expressions of interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1β, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and caspase-1 were significantly increased by radiation exposure from cardiac catheterization. The increase in IL-1β was significantly correlated with that of gammaH2AX, but not with dose area product. In the operators, neither gammaH2AX foci nor DICs level was changed, but IL-1β mRNA was significantly increased. Protein expression of IkappaBα was significantly decreased in both groups.
Conclusions
DNA damage was increased in the MNCs of patients, but not of operators, who underwent cardiac catheterization. Inflammatory cytokines were increased both in the patients and operators, presumably through activation of NF-kappaB. Further efforts to reduce radiation exposure from cardiac catheterization are necessary both for patients and operators.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate clinical and preintervention optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings to predict irregular protrusion (IRP) immediately after stent implantation.We evaluated 84 lesions treated with cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) from the MECHANISM Elective study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of IRP [IRP: n = 16, non-IRP: n = 68]. Optical coherence tomography images before intervention and immediately after stenting were evaluated with standard qualitative and quantitative OCT analyses.Total cholesterol and the prevalence of ruptured plaque before intervention were significantly higher in the IRP group than in the non-IRP group [199 ± 37 mg/dL versus 176 ± 41 mg/dL; P = 0.022, 31% versus 7%; P = 0.008]. Total lipid length tended to be longer in the IRP group than in the non-IRP group [19.6 ± 9.2 mm versus 15.5 ± 9.3 mm; P = 0.090]. The prevalence of ruptured plaque, and total cholesterol levels were independent predictors of IRP immediately after stenting by multivariate logistic regression analysis [OR: 4.6, 95% confidence interval: 1.01-21.23, P = 0.048, OR: 1.02, 95% confidence interval: 1.00-1.03, P = 0.046]. IRP post-CoCr-EES implantation was completely resolved at follow-up OCT.The prevalence of ruptured plaque before intervention and total cholesterol levels were independent predictors of IRP after CoCr-EES implantation in patients with stable coronary artery disease.

Abstract
While optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) can delineate calcium modification and fracture, the capability of high-definition intravascular ultrasound (HD-IVUS) for detecting these remains unclear. This study evaluated diagnostic accuracy of HD-IVUS for assessing calcium modification and fracture as compared to OFDI. HD-IVUS and OFDI were used during orbital or rotational atherectomy procedures conducted for 21 heavily calcified coronary lesions in 19 patients. With OFDI assessment used as the gold standard, diagnostic accuracies of HD-IVUS for calcium modification and fracture were compared every 1 mm to the matched pre-stenting images (n = 1129). Calcium modification, as assessed by OFDI, was defined as polished and concave-shaped calcium. For HD-IVUS, calcium modification was defined as the presence of reverberation with concave-shaped calcium. In both assessments, the definition of calcium fracture was defined as a slit or complete break in the calcium plate. Calcified plaque was found in 86.4% of analyzed OFDI images. Calcium modification and fracture were detected in 20.6% and 11.0% of detected calcified plaques. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of HD-IVUS detection for calcium modification and fracture were 54.4%, 97.8%, 86.7%, 89.1% and 86.0%, 94.5%, 58.2%, 96.8%, respectively. Discordance cases between both assessments demonstrated that heterogeneous calcium visualized by OFDI, separated calcium, and guide wire artifact can be misdiagnosed. Diagnostic accuracies of HD-IVUS for assessing calcium modification and fracture were acceptable as compared to OFDI. Such findings can be of utility during imaging guided interventional procedures with atherectomy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Primary or metastatic urethral tumors are extremely rare. However, treatment strategies differ between primary and metastatic tumors. Therefore, establishing an accurate diagnosis is critically needed for initiating timely and appropriate therapy. CASE PRESENTATION We describe the case of a 79-year-old man with prostate cancer treated with radiotherapy and androgen deprivation therapy. He presented with macroscopic hematuria as a symptom of anterior urethral tumor at follow-up. Endoscopic tumor resection was performed. Hematoxylin and eosin staining showed adenocarcinoma component. Immunohistochemical staining revealed presence of metastatic prostate cancer to the urethra. CONCLUSION Regarding urethral tumors diagnosis, urologists should consider the possibility of metastasis from prostate cancer and perform immunohistochemical examination for establishing accurate diagnosis. Furthermore, if androgen deprivation therapy fails to suppress symptoms, radiotherapy or urethrectomy might be considered.

Abstract
Aims The incidence and temporal change in coronary evagination (CE) after first-generation drug-eluting stent implantation is well established, whereas that after biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stent (BP-SES) implantation has not yet been evaluated. The aim of this study is to assess the incidence and natural history of CE after BP-SES implantation. Methods and results In this multicenter registry, stable coronary lesions treated by Ultimaster BP-SES were evaluated by serial optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) (at 0-1-12 or 0-3-12 months) and the incidence of CE was assessed. Coronary evagination was defined as the presence of an outward bulge in luminal vessel contour between apposed struts according to the following criteria: (i) evagination depth ≥10% of nominal stent diameter and (ii) evagination length ≥3.0 mm. Optical frequency domain imaging was obtained in 98, 47, 49, and 87 lesions at 0, 1, 3, and 12 months, respectively. Coronary evagination was observed in 20 (42.6%) and 12 (24.5%) lesions at 1 and 3 months, respectively, and all but one CE had resolved at 12 months. At 12 months, the mean CE area was almost zero and the mean malapposed stent area was also decreased. Comparison of the serial OFDI images indicated that CEs originated mostly from acute stent malapposition or coronary dissection behind the implanted stent. Conclusions In stable lesions, CE was occasionally observed with Ultimaster BP-SES at 1-3 months but mostly resolved within 12 months, without late-acquired stent malapposition. These findings suggest the safety and feasibility of biodegradable polymer coating on DES.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common complication of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Although previous studies have investigated mortality rates and the incidences of adverse events associated with new-onset AF (NOAF) in patients with AMI, the effects of emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on the incidence of NOAF in patients with AMI remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship of clinical characteristics, medical history, and the coronary flow disturbance phenomenon (TIMI < 3) following emergency PCI with NOAF in patients with AMI. Between 2012 and 2016, 731 patients with AMI underwent PCI at our facility. Among these, 52 had a history of chronic/paroxysmal AF before admission and were excluded. The remaining 679 patients (mean age 66.4 years, 532 males) were analyzed in this retrospective observational study.New-onset AF was observed in 45 patients (6.6%). In univariate analysis, the hazard ratios (HRs) for patient age (HR 1.04, 95%CI 1.02-1.07), Killip II-IV (HR 2.34, 95%CI 1.29-4.23), elevated D-dimer level (> 1.0 μg/mL; HR 3.32; 95%CI 1.77-6.23), and coronary flow disturbance phenomenon (HR 5.61; 95%CI 2.88-10.9) were significantly higher in the NOAF group. In multivariate analysis, an elevated D-dimer level (> 1.0 μg/mL; HR 2.44; 95%CI 1.17-5.11) and coronary flow disturbance phenomenon (HR 4.61; 95%CI 2.29-9.27) were found to be independent risk factors for NOAF. An elevated D-dimer level at admission and the presence of coronary flow disturbance phenomenon after PCI were risk factors for NOAF following emergency PCI in patients with AMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To report on our primary experience with the placement of a hydrogel spacer following stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in low- and intermediate-risk prostate cancer patients and assess its impact on dosimetry as well as acute toxicity. METHODS A total of 70 patients treated with SBRT (total dose of 36.25 Gy) in 5 fractions were included. Hydrogel spacers were inserted in 53 patients along with gold fiducial markers. For dosimetry, we trisected the rectum on the sagittal image of magnetic resonance imaging and defined it as the upper rectum (UR), middle rectum (MR), and lower rectum (LR). We compared the dose to each part of the rectum with and without hydrogel spacer using dose volume histograms. Genitourinary (GU) and gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity assessments were conducted until 6 months of follow-up visits. RESULTS The median volume of the hydrogel spacer was 12.3 mL. Overall, the hydrogel spacer could significantly reduce the rectal dose in the middle-to-high-dose region (V20-V35). The rectum doses at the UR and MR were significantly lower in the spacer group in the middle to high dose region (V20-V35); the dose at the LR was significantly lower in the spacer group in the high-dose region (V30-V35). There was no grade ≥ 3 toxicity observed, but grade 2 toxicity of GU and GI occurred in 17.1% and 1.4% of the patients, respectively. CONCLUSION Hydrogel spacers could contribute to rectal dose reduction, especially in high dose regions, by creating a prostate-rectum distance.

Abstract
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate early- and long-term outcomes in patients who undergo muscle flap coverage (MFC) for prosthetic graft infections (PGIs) at the groin or thigh. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively retrieved and analyzed data on infected wound cures, recurrence, graft and limb salvage, and survival of patients who underwent MFC for PGI at the groin or thigh between 2000 and 2018. Results: There were eight patients in our cohort: six had groin PGIs and two had thigh PGIs. Moreover, of these patients, seven were treated from sartorius muscles and one from a gracilis muscle. The indicated wounds healed in all eight patients, but two patients died during hospitalization. Three patients suffered recurrence within 8 months, one of which overcame the infection and achieved wound cure without graft removal, with negative pressure wound therapy. No patients lost their limbs during the follow-up term (mean, 24 months; range, 1–60 months). Finally, four patients (50%) survived without removal of the infected graft for longer than 2 years. Conclusion: MFC can be a curative treatment for PGI, but there remains a possibility of a recurring infection thereafter.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Although rapid ventricular pacing (RVP) is commonly performed for preparation of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). It has been reported that multiple and / or prolonged RVP is associated with adverse clinical outcomes of TAVI. Retrograde Inoue-Balloon was designed for balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAV) without RVP to prevent slip of balloon by way of central waist during biphasic inflation.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and feasibility of Retrograde Inoue-Balloon for TAVI preparation.
Methods
From December 2013 to December 2019, 427 consecutive patients who performed TAVI for severe aortic valve stenosis, were retrospectively enrolled in Iwate Medical University. Of them, 227 (53%) patients (mean age 83±5 years, male 41%), underwent retrograde BAV before prosthetic valve implantation, comprised this study population. Retrograde BAV procedures were divided into two groups; patients used Inoue-Balloon without RVP and those did conventional balloon with RVP. The primary endpoint was defined as combined adverse events of 30-day mortality, cerebral infarction, and critical complications after BAV (aortic dissection, aortic rupture and cardiopulmonary arrest). The secondary endpoint was set as prolonged hypotension after BAV.
Result
Inoue-Balloon (IB) and conventional balloon (CB) were used for 73 patients (32%) and 154 (68%) patients, respectively. Both balloons were succeeded to through and expand of aortic valve in all cases. In the CB group, cardiopulmonary arrest occurred in 2.0% after BAV, cerebral infarction was observed in 3.9%, and 30-day death in 3.3%. On the other hand, no major complications were observed except one aortic dissection in the IB group. In logistic regression analysis adjusted by sex and age, the incidence of combined adverse events was significantly lower in the IB group (OR 0.17, 95% CI 0.009–0.917, P=0.037). Furthermore, the IB group had significantly a lower incidence of prolonged hypotension following BAV compared with CB group (4.1% vs 19.5%, p=0.002).
Conclusion
Balloon aortic valvuloplasty using retrograde Inoue-balloon without rapid ventricular pacing is safe and feasible, and may improve clinical outcomes of TAVI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Second-generation drug-eluting stents (DES) reduce the incidence of stent thrombosis, even in patients with ST-segment elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the early local vascular healing after DES implantation in STEMI lesions, which mainly concerns stent thrombosis, is still unclear.Methods and Results:We attempted to determine early local vascular healing 3 months after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation in STEMI lesions relative to stable coronary artery disease (CAD) lesions. This prospective, multicenter study analyzed 96 total lesions (STEMI=49, stable CAD=51) by frequency domain-optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) performed post-procedure and at the 3-month follow-up. Although CoCr-EES implanted in STEMI were almost entirely covered at 3 months, they had a relatively high incidence of uncovered struts compared with stable CAD (5.5% vs. 1.6%, P<0.001). Intrastent thrombus in the 2 groups was primarily resolved at the 3-month follow-up (STEMI: 91.7%→26.5%, stable CAD: 74.5%→11.8%). Regarding irregular protrusion, complete resolution was observed in stable CAD (21.6%→0%), while a few stents remained in STEMI (79.2%→8.2%). Although there were almost no changes for the serial change of average lumen area in STEMI, there were slight but significant decreases in stable CAD [STEMI 0.08 (-0.44, 0.55) mm2, stable CAD -0.35 (-0.55, 0.11) mm2; P=0.009]. CONCLUSIONS Although strut coverage after CoCr-EES implantation for STEMI lesions was slightly delayed, the healing process appeared to be acceptable in both STEMI and stable CAD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We sought to evaluate the severity and patterns of calcifications in the left main coronary artery (LMCA) and proximal segments of left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) and left circumflex artery (LCX) using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in patients with and without prior coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). BACKGROUND CABG may accelerate upstream calcium development. METHODS OCT images (n = 76) of the LMCA bifurcation from either the LAD or LCX in 76 patients with at least one patent left coronary graft, on average 7.0 ± 5.6 years post-CABG, were compared with 148 OCT images in propensity-score-matched non-CABG controls. RESULTS Minimum lumen areas in the LMCA, LAD, and LCX in post-CABG patients were smaller than non-CABG controls. Maximum calcium arc and thickness as well as calcium length were greater in the LMCA and LCX, but not in the LAD in post-CABG patients versus non-CABG controls. Calcium located at the carina of a bifurcation, calcified nodules (CN), thin intimal calcium, and lobulated calcium were more prevalent in post-CABG patients. After adjusting for multiple covariates, prior CABG was an independent predictor of calcification at the carina of a bifurcation (odds ratio [OR] 5.77 [95% confidence interval, CI: 1.5-21.6]), thin intimal calcium (4.7 [1.5-14.4]), and the presence of a CN (15.60 [3.2-76.2]). CONCLUSIONS Prior CABG is associated with greater amount of calcium in the LMCA and the proximal LCX, as well as higher prevalence of atypical calcium patterns, including CN, thin or lobulated calcium, and calcifications located at the carina of a bifurcation, compared with non-CABG controls.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent clinical trial demonstrated that optical frequency domain imaging (OFDI) guidance in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is noninferior to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance in patients with coronary artery disease with regard to target vessel failure (composed of cardiac death, myocardial infarction attributed to the target vessel, and clinically-driven target vessel revascularization) at 12 months. The impact of OFDI guidance in PCI for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains uncertain. METHODS OPINION ACS is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label, parallel group, non-inferiority trial in Japan. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to receive either OFDI- or IVUS-guided PCI. PCI is performed using the sirolimus-eluting stent in accordance with certain OFDI and IVUS criteria for optimal stent deployment. All patients will undergo follow-up angiography and OFDI imaging at 8 months. The primary endpoint is the minimum lumen area, as measured by OFDI at 8 months. CONCLUSION The OPINION ACS trial outcomes will provide insights regarding the impact of OFDI-guided PCI on in-stent restenosis at 8 months in patients with ACS.

Abstract
Several studies have demonstrated the safety and feasibility of short (3-6 months) and very short duration (< 2 months) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in patients with a durable-polymer drug-eluting stent (DP-DES). However, the clinical importance of using very short duration DAPT has yet to be established in patients with a biodegradable polymer drug-eluting stent (BP-DES). The aim of this REIWA registry (multicenter and prospective registry; investigation of clinical outcomes of patients treated with short duration dual antiplatelet therapy after implantation of biodresorbable-polymer drug-eluting stent: a multicenter, prospective registry from Iwate medical university affiliated hospitals) is to determine the safety and feasibility of using 1-month DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy in patients after BP-DES implantation. This study is an observational, prospective, multicenter registry encompassing the entire local medical region of Iwate Prefecture (northern area of mainland Japan). A total of 1200 patients who underwent successful PCI with a novel thin strut BP-DES (Synergy, Ultimaster or Orsiro) and are considered to be appropriate patients for very short DAPT, are registered and subsequently administered 1-month DAPT followed by P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy (clopidogrel 75 mg/day or prasugrel 3.75 mg/day). The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular and bleeding events, which included cardiovascular death, spontaneous myocardial infarction, definite stent thrombosis, ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, or TIMI major or minor bleeding at 12 months. The REIWA registry (UMIN000037321) will demonstrate both the safety and feasibility of using 1-month DAPT in patients with BP-DES. Furthermore, results of this study will also be able to provide supportive evidence for P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy after 1-month DAPT following BP-DES implantation.

Abstract
The Jehovah's Witnesses (JW) is well known for declining blood transfusions. Especially, cardiovascular surgery on JW poses unique challenges. We herein report 12 JW emergent cases of Stanford type A acute aortic dissection which underwent graft replacement between 2003 and 2019. Graft replacement of ascending aorta was performed in all cases. Operative time and anesthetic time were 344±100 and 396±109 minutes respectively. The mean intraoperative hemoglobin nadir was 4.9±1.2 g/dl. The postoperative hemoglobin nadir was 6.3 ±2.4 g/dl. There were 2 deaths within 24 hours after surgery. We did not transfuse any packed red blood cells, fresh frozen plasma or platelets for JW patients of Stanford type A acute aortic dissection surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to identify a cut-off value to predict the resolution of incomplete-stent-apposition (ISA) after cobalt-chromium everolimus-eluting stent (CoCr-EES) implantation at early follow-up. BACKGROUND To date, appropriate stent apposition at the acute period using intracoronary imaging has been recommended because persistent ISA is considered to be a risk factor for stent thrombosis. We examined the indices for resolving acute ISA. In particular, we determined the cut-off value for strut vessel distance (SV-distance) as visualized by optical coherence tomography (OCT) at 8 months after CoCr-EES implantation. However, the cut-off value of SV-distance for the earlier resolution of ISA is unclear. METHODS A total of 95 cases and 103 stents were registered in the MECHANISM Elective substudy. The SV-distance was measured at the deepest site of the target malapposition and every 1 mm from the proximal edge to the distal edge of the mal-apposed area using OCT. Cut-off values for ISA resolution at 1 and 3 months were estimated by SV-distance using receiver operating characteristic analysis. RESULTS The total number of analyzed struts was 14,418 at the 1-month follow-up and 11,986 at the 3-month follow-up. The optimal SV-distance cut-off values just after stent implantation to predict ISA resolution were 185 µm at the 1-month follow-up and 195 μm at the 3-month follow-up. CONCLUSION For resolution of ISA, SV-distance cut-off values of 185 µm at 1 month postimplantation and 195 μm at 3 months postimplantation can be used as the index of endpoint of the percutaneous coronary intervention.
