Similar Outcomes Between Patients with Native Coronary and Bypass Graft Disease Treated with Sirolimus-Eluting Stents in the SECURE TrialPresented by Marco Costa, MD
As part of the compassionate-use SECURE trial, the long-term results using sirolimus-eluting stents were compared in patients with native coronary disease vs. those with bypass graft disease.

The Superior Yield of the New Strategy of Enoxaparin, Revascularization and Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors (SYNERGY) Trial: Primary ResultsPresented by Kenneth W. Mahaffey, M.D., F.A.C.C.
James J. Ferguson, M.D., F.A.C.C.
Robert M. Califf, MD, F.A.C.C.
The purpose of the Superior Yield of the New Strategy of Enoxaparin, Revascularization, and Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Inhibitors (SYNERGY) trial was to compare enoxaparin to unfractionated heparin as primary antithrombotic therapy in high-risk non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) ACS patients managed with an early invasive treatment strategy and to determine the role of enoxaparin in this population.
Long-Term Follow-Up of Safety and Feasibility of Autologous Skeletal Myoblast Transplantation in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft SurgeryPresented by Nabil Dib, MD
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of autologous myoblast transplantation AMT into and around ischemic myocardium during coronary artery bypass (CABG) surgery in humans.
Long-term effects of statin therapy in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction and moderate or severe left ventricular dysfunction: Reduction of mortality but not of nonfatal major adverse coronary and cerebrovascular eventsPresented by Thomas Kleemann, MD
This trial was undertaken to evaluate the prognostic impact of early statin therapy in patients with moderate or severe left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction <40%) after acute ST-elevation MI.
Association of Triglyceride to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio With Heart Rate Recovery in Healthy AdultsPresented by Mehdi H. Shishehbor, DO
Michael S. Lauer, MD
Investigators have identified significant association between heart rate recovery and TG/HDL-C ratio. In a retrospective analysis, the two factors together identify patients with insulin resistance who are at increased risk of death. By performing simple lipid measures and an exercise test, clinicians can obtain information that may be prognostically important in clinical practice.
