DOI: 10.1002/clc.22942
Abstract: The treatment of coronary small vessel disease (SVD) remains an unresolved issue. Drug‐eluting stents (DES) have limited efficacy due to increased rates of instent‐restenosis, mainly caused by late lumen loss. Drug‐coated balloons (DCB) are a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)32165-3
Abstract: Small coronary artery (SCA) PCI has greater lesion failure and restenosis. Drug-eluting stents (DES) have shown efficacy whereas limited trials have explored the benefit of drug-coated balloons (DCB). We searched databases for RCTs comparing DCB… read more here.
