The study examined the efficacy of guided antiplatelet therapy in patients with stent-treated intracranial aneurysms through a cluster-randomized trial. It compared personalized antiplatelet regimens based on platelet function testing to standard fixed doses. Findings indicated that the guided therapy approach improved outcomes by reducing thromboembolic events. These results support the use of tailored antiplatelet strategies

Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and surgical resection are two treatment approaches for managing small late-recurrence hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TACE with RFA is a minimally invasive option that targets tumors by delivering chemotherapy directly and ablating them with heat, while surgical resection involves physically removing the tumor. The choice between these methods

The study compares microwave ablation (MWA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for treating predominantly solid benign thyroid nodules. Both methods aim to reduce nodule size and alleviate related symptoms. Results indicate that both MWA and RFA are effective and safe, though there may be differences in efficacy, procedure duration, and potential side effects. The trial highlights

The study evaluates the clinical effectiveness of using automated coronary CT-derived fractional flow reserve (FFR_CT) in diagnosing coronary artery disease. Conducted as a randomized controlled trial in China, the research compares FFR_CT with standard diagnostic methods. Results indicate that FFR_CT provides accurate assessment, improving decision-making for patient management. This approach could potentially optimize outcomes and
