Data are presented as means ± SD or n (%) or n/total n (%).

OCT, optical coherence tomography; STEMI, ST-elevation myocardial infarction.

dTwo-stent bifurcation was treatment with a stent at least 2.5 mm in diameter in both the main vessel and side-branch vessel.

eSevere calcification was defined as visible calcification on both sides of the vessel wall in the absence of cardiac motion.

fA chronic total occlusion could be a qualifying characteristic only after the occlusion had been successfully crossed with antegrade wire escalation and pre-dilatation.

gAdvanced lesion preparation includes treatment with a cutting or scoring balloon, atherectomy, lithotripsy, or laser before implantation of the stent.
