Why the study?

Although abnormal PTFV1 is a suggested predictor of adverse cardiovascular events, its performance in patients with CAD remained unknown.

Does abnormal PTFV1 predict a composite of cardiac death and heart failure hospitalization in patients with CAD undergoing PCI?

Population

3,147 patients with CAD who underwent PCI

Comparison

Abnormal PTFV1 vs normal PTFV1

Design

Retrospective cohort study

Follow-up

Median of 5.2 years

Implication

PTFV1 may aid post-PCI risk stratification in CAD; leaves open incremental value and requires prospective validation.
