Acute and 6‐month clinical and angiographic outcome after implantation of the ACS Duet stent for single‐vessel coronary artery disease: Final results of the European and U.S. ACS Multi‐link Duet Registry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine the safety and efficacy of the second-generation ACS Multi-Link Duet coronary stent system for the treatment of single, symptomatic, de novo, native coronary artery lesions. Between February and June 1998, 427 patients (69.3% male, 51.5% class 3 or 4 angina, 20.1% diabetic, 43.6% hyperlipidemia) were included at 38 centers in this prospective observational study. All patients received ticlopidine 500 mg/day for 1 month and aspirin > or =100 mg/day. The Duet stent was available in 8, 18, and 28 mm length and 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 mm diameter. After adequate predilatation, stents were successfully implanted, at up to 16 atm, in 99.3% of patients. Mean vessel diameter by core laboratory quantitative coronary angiography was 3.0 +/- 0.53 mm and postprocedural minimum luminal diameter was 2.79 +/- 0.43 mm (12% +/- 9.3% diameter stenosis). At 30 days, 96.7% of patients were event-free and at 6 months 88.1% remained free of major adverse cardiac events. The restenosis rate was 18.1%. The ACS Duet stent was safely implanted in >99% of target lesions by a diverse group of international investigators. With late outcomes at least comparable to the best published results, this stent platform provides safe and effective percutaneous treatment of obstructive coronary artery disease.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
