Clopidogrel Versus Aspirin Monotherapy Following Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: An Updated Meta- Analysis Of 162,829 Patients, Mohammed A. Elbahloul, Ahmed Mansour, Amr Galal, Walaa M. Moawad, Manar Khaled, Ahmed Wahdan Kasem, Eman E. Labeeb, Islam Y. Elgendy

Gill Heart & Vascular Institute Faculty Publications

Background: Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains a cornerstone for preventing ischemic events; however, the optimal long-term single antiplatelet therapy after completion of DAPT remains unclear. We aimed to compare clopidogrel and aspirin monotherapy after completion of the standard duration of DAPT.

Methods: A systematic search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from inception to April 2025. We included randomized clinical trials and observational studies that compared aspirin versus clopidogrel monotherapy after completion of standard-duration DAPT. The primary and co-primary outcomes were major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and major bleeding, respectively. …

Introduction: Prior trials evaluating the benefit of colchicine in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have yielded mixed results. Hence, we conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate the role of colchicine after ACS.

Methods: We performed an electronic search of MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases through November 2024 for studies comparing colchicine with placebo after ACS. Our study’s primary outcome was major adverse cardiac events (MACE).

Results: Our final analysis included five RCTs with 12,979 patients with a mean follow-up of 26.6 months. The weighted mean age was 59.8 years. Colchicine was associated with a modest …

Mechanical-Medical Convergence In Heart Failure: Artificial Intelligence, Finite-Element Modeling, And 3d Printing For Diagnosis And Prognosis, Quazi Noor E. Sabrina, Quazi Md Zobaer Shah, Quazi Noor E. Sohela, Md Mahabub Hasan Mousum, Md. Moyeen Uddin Chisty, Quazi Md. Akbar Shah

Heart failure remains a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, yet routine clinical indices often miss the regional biomechanical disturbances that drive progression and shape treatment response. This State-of-the-Art review examines how finite-element (FE) modeling, additive manufacturing, and artificial intelligence (AI) are converging to improve the diagnosis, phenotyping, procedural planning, and prognostic assessment of heart failure (HF). Although these technologies have matured in structural heart disease and transcatheter intervention research, their greatest translational potential may lie in HF, where patient-specific ventricular remodeling, myocardial stress–strain heterogeneity, valve-ventricular coupling, and device-tissue interaction are incompletely captured by conventional clinical indices. We synthesize …
