Predictive Factors of Restenosis After Coronary Stent Placement

Abstract: Diabetes, multiple stents and smaller final MLD are strong predictors of restenosis after coronary stent placement. Achieving an optimal result with a minimal number of stents during the procedure may significantly reduce this risk even in patients with adverse clinical characteristics such as diabetes.

“…Diabetes mellitus has been identified as an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis and is considered a coronary-heart-disease risk equivalent. It is also a recognized independent risk factor for poor outcome after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty for symptomatic coronary disease (Kip et al, 1996;Holmes et al, 1997;Kastrati et al, 1997;Mathew et al, 2004). TNF-is increased in arterial smooth muscle cells following injury and has multiple biological effects, such as promoting the migration of VSMCs and inflammatory cells by a mechanism dependent on the activation of NF-B (Wang et al, 2001).…”

“…In addition, predictors of clinical outcomes in both BMS- (16) and DES-treated (17) patients have been identified; although, for the large part, these studies were again limited to reporting restenosis at six months in patients enrolled in RCTs. With recent concerns raised regarding very late outcomes in patients enrolled in clinical trials, particularly in the context of DES use (18), it is important to examine the long-term outcomes of 'all-comers' who undergo PCI.…”
