Abstract
BACKGROUND: Clinical efficacy of coronary sinus reducer (CSR) in refractory angina (RA) patients with ischemia due to the chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the right coronary artery (RCA) remains unknown. AIMS: To evaluate the efficacy of CSR implantation in RA patients with CTO RCA and compare them to CSR recipients with left coronary artery (LCA) ischemia. METHODS: Consecutive patients with CTO RCA from 2 centers were prospectively included and compared to patients with LCA ischemia. All patients underwent evaluation of angina severity and quality of life (QoL) at baseline and after 12 months. In a subgroup of CTO RCA patients, stress cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging was also performed. RESULTS: Twenty-two patients with CTO RCA and predominant inferior and/or inferoseptal wall ischemia (the CTO RCA group) were compared to 24 patients with predominant anterior, lateral, and/or anteroseptal wall ischemia (the LCA group). While the Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) anginascore mean (SD) improved in the CTO RCA group from 2.73 (0.46) to 1.82 (0.73) (P <0.001) and in the LCA group from 2.67 (0.57) to 1.92 (0.72) (P <0.001), there was no intergroup difference (P = 0.350). Significant improvement in all domains of the Seattle Angina Questionnaire was observed. Stress CMR did not show a significant reduction of ischemic inferior and/or inferoseptal segments, however, improvements in the transmurality index (P = 0.03) and the myocardial perfusion reserve index in segments with inducible ischemia (P = 0.03) were observed in the CTO RCA group. CONCLUSIONS: In CTO RCA patients, CSR implantation alleviated angina symptoms and improved QoL. The extent of improvement was comparable to that observed in patients with LCA ischemia.

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 it
