Increased percutaneous coronary intervention rates were associated with decreased mortality among patients with cardiogenic shock and with decreased development of cardiogenic shock during hospitalization.

New-generation metallic DES (EES/BES) were not superior to BVS in terms of angiographic LLL and clinical outcomes. (Comparison of Everolimus- and Biolimus-Eluting Stents With Everolimus-Eluting Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffold Stents [EVERBIO II]; NCT01711931).

Our results confirm that the high success rate obtained with both stents in randomized trials can be replicated in routine clinical practice. In this small group of patients we were unable to show any advantage of one stent over the other.
