Drug eluting stent versus bare metal stent in saphenous vein graft lesions: a comprehensive meta-analysis of 14,000 patients

Tanboğa, İbrahim Halil; Topçu, Selim; Aksakal, Emrah; Kaya, Ahmet; Aksu, Uğur; Işık, Turgay; Oduncu, Vecih; Sevimli, Serdar (Oxford Univ Press, 2015)

Introduction: Drug eluting stents (DES) have been shown to significantly reduce the rate of target lesion revascularization in native coronary arteries compared to bare metal stents (BMS). However, there have been ...
The influence of remote ischemic post-conditioning on left ventricular mechanics

Kurt, Mustafa; Tanboğa, İbrahim Halil; Oduncu, Vecih; Işık, Turgay; Kaya, Ahmet; Ekinci, Metin; Aksakal, Emrah (Oxford Univ Press, 2012)

Background: It is well known that remote ischemic postconditioning (RIPC) decreases infarct size and prevents left ventricular (LV) remodeling in patients with myocardial infarction. However, there is no study that evaluates ...
The role of optical coherence tomography in prediction of coronary ischemia assessed by fractional flow reserve: meta-analysis of diagnostic test accuracy
