The relative and combined ability of triglyceride-glucose index and stress hyperglycemia ratio to predict major adverse cardio-cerebral events in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease.

Background: Cardiovascular disease continues to be the leading cause of global mortality and disability, particularly posing elevated risks in patients diagnosed with multivessel disease (MVD). Efficient risk stratification in MVD patients is crucial for improving prognosis, prompting investigation into novel biomarkers such as the triglyceride-glucose index (TyG index) and the stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR).

Methods: This study enrolled a cohort comprising 679 patients diagnosed with MVD who underwent coronary angiography at Tianjin Chest Hospital.

Prediabetes is Associated with Worse Long-Term Outcomes in Young Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome.

Purpose: The incidence of prediabetes mellitus (pre-DM) is increasing among young individuals. Whether pre-DM can predict adverse cardiovascular events in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients remains controversial. This study aimed to investigate the impact of pre-DM on the long-term clinical outcomes of patients aged≤ 45 years with new-onset ACS.

Early versus late delayed percutaneous coronary intervention in elderly patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Background And Objective: There are a substantial proportion of elderly patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) miss the optimal time window (12 h from symptom onset) of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). For these patients, the ideal timing of delayed PCI remains undetermined. Therefore, this study compared the clinical outcomes of early versus late delayed PCI in elderly patients with STEMI.

Culprit vessel vs. immediate multivessel vs. out-of-hospital staged intervention for patients with non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and multivessel disease.

Background And Aims: The optimal interventional strategy remains undetermined in hemodynamically stable patients with NSTEMI and MVD. This study aimed to examine clinical prognosis among culprit vessel, immediate multivessel, and staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with NSTEMI and MVD.

Methods: This retrospective, observational, single-center study included 943 hemodynamically stable patients with NSTEMI and MVD who had undergone successful drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation from January 2014 to December 2019.

Staged revascularization vs. culprit-only percutaneous coronary intervention for multivessel disease in elderly patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Backgroundand Objective: Studies have highlighted the significant role of staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for a multivessel disease (MVD) among patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, the relative benefit of staged vs. culprit-only PCI for MVD in elderly patients with STEMI remains undetermined.
