Pathological studies have shown that vessel shrinkage is accompanied by folding of the internal elastic membrane (IEM). A peri-medial high-echoic band (PHB) by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) may represent folding of the IEM and therefore detect chronically shrunken coronary segments that have potential to enlarge subsequently. METHODS AND RESULTS: IVUS imaging of the distal reference segments was performed in 27 patients after stenting. PHB was defined as a high-echoic band observed at the luminal side of the media. Serial (baseline and 9 months) changes in minimal lumen diameter (LD) were compared between those with (PHB group) and without PHB (non-PHB group). During follow-up, LD increased significantly in PHB group (1.2±0.3 vs. 1.7±0.5 mm, P=0.001) but not in the non-PHB group (2.0±0.7 vs. 2.1±0.7 mm, P=NS). Late lumen gain (LLG) was observed in 16 of the 27 (59%) lesions. Lesions with LLG showed a trend toward smaller baseline lumen cross-sectional area and significantly higher prevalence of PHB (88% vs. 18%, P=0.007). By multivariable logistic regression analysis, PHB was the only IVUS predictor of LLG. CONCLUSIONS: Presence of PHB on IVUS predicts chronic enlargement of the coronary segments distal to the stented lesion.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":2.4849066497880004,"endowment":2.4849066497880004,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"25746545","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2465801132","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":0.2843,"citation_percentile":0.65339515,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2018,"count":1},{"year":2019,"count":2},{"year":2020,"count":3},{"year":2022,"count":3},{"year":2023,"count":1},{"year":2025,"count":1}],"oa_status":"gold","license":null,"oa_locations":[{"url":"https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/circj/79/3/79_CJ-14-0917/_pdf","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/circj/79/3/79_CJ-14-0917/_pdf","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1253/circj.cj-14-0917","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25746545","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Coronary Interventions and Diagnostics","Ultrasound Imaging and Elastography","Cardiovascular Health and Disease Prevention","Aged","Coronary Angiography","Coronary Stenosis","Elasticity Imaging Techniques","Female","Humans","Male","Middle Aged","Percutaneous Coronary Intervention","Prohibitins","Stents","Ultrasonography, Interventional"],"mesh_terms":["Prohibitins","Aged","Female","Humans","Male","Middle Aged","Stents","Coronary Angiography","Ultrasonography, Interventional","Coronary Stenosis","Elasticity Imaging Techniques","Percutaneous Coronary Intervention"],"keywords":["Intravascular ultrasound","Lumen (anatomy)","Lesion","Cardiology","Internal elastic lamina","Medicine","Internal medicine","Artery","Pathology"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Good health and well-being"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-16T08:00:48.761726Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
