Saphenous vein graft failure after coronary artery bypass surgery: insights from PREVENT IV.
BACKGROUND Coronary artery bypass grafting success is limited by vein graft failure (VGF). Understanding the factors associated with VGF may improve patient outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined 1828 participants in the Project of Ex Vivo Vein Graft Engineering via Transfection IV (PREVENT IV) trial undergoing protocol-mandated follow-up angiography 12 to 18 months post-coronary artery by...
متن کاملDisconnect between vein graft failure and clinical events after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

The authors reported that the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was found to be an independent predictor of saphenous vein graft disease (SVGD) in patients with stable angina pectoris. Kundi et al. (1) identified the significance of PLR in patients with stable angina...
