Implication
SxSII may refine 1-year mortality stratification post-PCI in ACS; leaves open whether it improves decisions over GRACE or anatomical SxS.

SYNTAX score II provides superior prognostic discrimination for 1-year mortality compared to the anatomical SYNTAX score and GRACE score in ACS patients undergoing PCI.
