Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the relationship between the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (hsCRP/HDL-C) ratio (CHR) and long-term health outcomes in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) after undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
- - Researchers categorized 3,260 CAD patients who had PCI into three groups based on their CHR levels and found that higher CHR was linked with increased risks of all-cause mortality, cardiac mortality, and major adverse cardiac events.
- - The analysis indicated that patients in the highest CHR group faced significantly higher risks (2.127 times for all-cause mortality and 3.575 times for cardiac mortality) compared to those
Currently, the standard treatment for patients who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) following acute myocardial infarction (MI) involves dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with a combination of aspirin and a potent P2Y12 receptor inhibitor. However, the potential benefits of aspirin were partially constrained by the intolerance of some patients. The safety and efficacy of indobufen, an alternative antiplatelet agents to aspirin, in patients with AMI after PCI are yet to be thoroughly investigated.

- This study evaluated the prevalence and impact of newly diagnosed diabetes on elderly patients (≥65 years) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from 2004 to 2021, where 2456 patients were followed for an average of five years.
- It found that newly diagnosed diabetes affected 8.1% to 10.9% of these patients, significantly increasing their risk for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) compared to those with previously identified diabetes (25.28% vs. 19.15%).
- The research concluded that newly diagnosed diabetes is an independent predictor of increased risks for MACE, cardiac death, and repeat revascularization, highlighting the need for greater attention to this group of elderly patients post
