Fox et al[ 17 ] published the joint results of the fast revascularization during instability in coronary artery disease (FRISC-II), randomized intervention trial of unstable angina 3 (RITA-3) and invasive vs conservative treatment in unstable coronary syndromes (ICTUS) at 5 years, demonstrating superiority of an invasive strategy for the combination of cardiovascular death and myocardial infarction (HR = 0.8, CI: 0.71-0.93, P = 0.002), which was driven for myocardial infarction occurrence (HR = 0.77; CI: 0.65-0.90, P = 0.001); the difference in cardiovascular mortality did not reach statistical significance (HR = 0.83, CI: 0.68-1.01, P = 0.068).
