Prognostic value of pan immune-inflammation value in patients undergoing unprotected left main coronary artery stenting.

This study aimed long-term prognostic factors for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in left main coronary artery (LMCA) disease, focusing on inflammatory parameters like Pan Immune-Inflammation Value (PIV) and Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII). This retrospective, observational study involved 121 patients receiving unprotected LMCA PCI.The study's primary end point was MACE, including all-cause death, repeat revascularization and myocardial reinfarction.

The Relationship Between the Modified Glasgow Prognostic and SYNTAX Scores in Patients with Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction.

Objective: This study investigated the modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) to determine its predictive value and how it could be compared with various inflammatory markers, including C-reactive protein (CRP) to albumin ratio and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, for determining the extent and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) in patients with non-ST-elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI).

Methods: This study analyzed the cases of 295 patients with NSTEMI who had undergone coronary angiography. In an effort to determine the seriousness and scope of CAD in each patient, the Synergy between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score was calculated and then assessed.

Prognostic value of nutrition for contrast-induced nephropathy in patients undergoing peripheral vascular intervention.

The objective was to examine the predictive value of malnutrition, assessed via the Controlling Nutritional status (CONUT) and Prognostic Nutrition Index (PNI) scores, in the development of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) following peripheral vascular intervention (PVI). This retrospective cross-sectional observational study included the enrollment of 243 consecutive patients who underwent PVI. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the occurrence of CA-AKI.

Relationship of the modified Glasgow Prognostic Score with peripheral artery disease severity and procedure success in patients who had undergone endovascular treatment.

Objectives: The modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) is one type of inflammation-based index; it includes data on elevated C-reactive protein and reduced albumin content. The predictive value of mGPS for outcomes is investigated in various diseases such as cancer, heart failure, myocardial infarction, acute pulmonary embolism, and inflammatory bowel diseases. This study aimed to evaluate the link between mGPS and the severity and complexity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) as determined by the Transatlantic Intercommunal Consensus Document (TASC-II) classification and the prediction value of mGPS for procedural success in patients undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT).

Can catheter-based renal denervation reduce frequency of hospitalization in patients who have resistant hypertension and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction?

Hypertension is one of the most powerful and modifiable risk factors for the development, progression and even decompensation of heart failure. Uncontrolled hypertension increases to frequency of heart failure hospitalizations by increase sympathetic tone. Catheter-based renal denervation has been shown to reduce blood pressure in the treatment of multidrug-resistant hypertension.
