Does renal insufficiency worsen long-term prognosis in Chinese patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome?
Renal insufficiency is a significant predictor of unfavorable long-term prognosis in Chinese patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Renal function aids ACS risk stratification in Chinese patients; extends prior observations but remains hypothesis-generating pending prospective trials.
In this study, among Chinese patients with ACS, renal insufficiency was associated with unfavorable long-term prognosis. Age, SBP, heart rate, eGFR, STEMI, and PCI could identify those at risk.
