Patients with NSTE-ACS and nonobstructive CAD remain at substantial risk for coronary events at 1 year, and the TIMI risk score can help identify high-risk individuals.
May support risk stratification with TIMI in NSTE-ACS with nonobstructive CAD; leaves open optimal management strategies.
Patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndromes with nonobstructive coronary artery disease detected by angiography have a substantial risk of subsequent coronary events within 1 year. The risk is not univariately high, and the TIMI risk score helps to reveal patients at high risk.
