Why the study?
Do coronary CT angiography-derived perivascular fat attenuation index and triglyceride glucose-body mass index predict periprocedural myocardial infarction and major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with chronic coronary syndrome undergoing elective PCI?
Do coronary CT angiography-derived perivascular fat attenuation index and triglyceride glucose-body mass index predict periprocedural myocardial infarction and major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with chronic coronary syndrome undergoing elective PCI?
CT-derived perivascular fat attenuation index and triglyceride glucose-body mass index can independently predict periprocedural MI and MACE in patients with chronic coronary syndrome undergoing elective PCI.
May aid pre-PCI risk stratification in chronic coronary syndrome; leaves open whether targeting these markers improves outcomes.
In participants with chronic coronary syndrome undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention, coronary CT angiography–derived perivascular fat attenuation index and triglyceride glucose–body mass index independently predicted periprocedural myocardial infarction and major adverse cardiovascular events.
