Why the study?
Patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder have an increased risk of coronary artery disease, but their long-term outcomes after CABG remain unclear.
Does schizophrenia spectrum disorder increase the risk of long-term mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting?
Does schizophrenia spectrum disorder increase the risk of long-term mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting?
Patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder have a significantly higher long-term risk of death and major adverse cardiovascular events after CABG, highlighting the need for intensive secondary prevention and risk factor optimization.
