Impact of remnant cholesterol on short-term and long-term prognosis in patients with prediabetes or diabetes undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting: a large-scale cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Remnant cholesterol (remnant-C) contributes to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), particularly in individuals with impaired glucose metabolism. Patients with impaired glucose metabolism and ASCVD remain at significant residual risk after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, the role of remnant-C in this population has not yet been investigated.

Methods

Adult patients with prediabetes or diabetes undergoing isolated CABG were consecutively enrolled in a longitudinal cohort between 2013 and 2018. The impact of remnant-C on short-term and long-term outcomes after CABG was evaluated. The short-term outcomes included major perioperative complications. The long-term outcomes were major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs).
