Background: To investigate the impact of colchicine adjuvant therapy on disease control and serum levels of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor (NALP) 3, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule (sICAM)-1, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, and MMP13 in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) complicated by acute gout attacks.
Methods: Ninety-two patients with CHD and acute gout attacks admitted to our hospital from October 2021 to January 2023 were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 46 patients in each group. The control group received conventional treatment, while the observation group received colchicine adjuvant therapy on top of the control group's treatment for 7 days.

Moreover, the relationship between the pattern of coronary artery disease and risk factors in young patients with acute myocardial infarction is inconclusive.

Many studies have addressed the incidence, risk factors, and management of CAP in different countries except China. The aim of this study is to determine the risk factors and types of treatment for coronary perforation occurring in patients undergoing PCI and living in the Cangzhou Chinese population.
