Objectives: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against nuclear antigens and immune complex deposition. The pathogenesis of SLE is not fully understood; however, there are alterations in neutrophils and lymphocytes. Recent parameters assessing both neutrophil activations (Neut-RI, Neut-GI, IG) and activated lymphocytes (Re-Lymp, As-Lymp) can be used to assess the activation of immune cells.

Left main (LM) percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has expanded rapidly in the past decade, with up to fourfold increase annually. Recent trials found that intravascular imaging (IVI)-guided LM PCI resulted in lower risks of cardiac death and stent failure due to suboptimal PCI compared to angiography-guided PCI. IVI usage has increased in recent years; however, its utilization remains variable across regions and is still incredibly low in developing countries.
