The left atrial appendage: from embryology to prevention of thromboembolism.

abstract：AIMS:The optimal timing of intervention in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) remains uncertain. The aim of this multicentre trial was to assess whether an immediate invasive approach is superior to an early invasive or a selective invasive approach with respect to reduction of large infarction. METHODS A...
