Key result
The platelet/albumin ratio demonstrated a moderate discriminatory ability for predicting coronary slow flow with an area under the curve of 0.592.
Why the study?
The pathophysiology of coronary slow flow is not fully understood, prompting evaluation of the predictive value of the platelet/albumin ratio in these patients.
Does the platelet/albumin ratio predict the presence of coronary slow flow in patients undergoing coronary angiography?
Observational (n=209)
No

Yavuz et al. (2024) conducted an observational in Coronary slow flow (n=209). Platelet/albumin ratio (PAR) vs. Normal coronary arteries was evaluated on Discriminatory ability of Platelet/Albumin Ratio (PAR) for coronary slow flow (AUC 0.592, 95% CI 0.517-0.667, p=0.022). The platelet/albumin ratio demonstrated a moderate discriminatory ability for predicting coronary slow flow with an area under the curve of 0.592.
