Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACSs) represent a critical spectrum of cardiovascular emergencies, encompassing unstable angina, non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This Special Issue highlights recent clinical advances in the diagnosis and management of ACS, focusing on precision medicine, rapid risk stratification, and evidence-based therapeutic strategies. Key topics include the role of high-sensitivity cardiac biomarkers (e.g., troponins), coronary imaging modalities (e.g., optical coherence tomography), and the integration of artificial intelligence in early diagnosis. The Special Issue also reviews contemporary treatment paradigms, such as tailored antiplatelet/anticoagulant regimens, early revascularization, and novel pharmacological agents (e.g., P2Y12 inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors). Additionally, it addresses disparities in care delivery and emerging technologies like telemedicine for post-ACS monitoring. By synthesizing cutting-edge research and expert consensus, this collection aims to optimize patient outcomes through timely, individualized care while underscoring gaps for future investigation.
