Implication

May warrant prolonged surveillance after drug-eluting stenting; leaves open optimal healing timelines from human data.

Structured PICO

I
Intervention
Drug eluting stents

The prolonged healing response in humans compared to animal models highlights the need for long-term follow-up of patients receiving drug-eluting stents.
