Relationship Between Immunoinflammation and Coronary Physiology Evaluated by Quantitative Flow Ratio in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease.

ABSTRACT: Background: The association between coronary physiology and immunoinflammation has not been investigated. We performed a retrospective study using quantitative flow ratio (QFR) to evaluate the interaction between immunoinflammatory biomarkers and coronary physiology. Methods: A total of 172 patients with CAD who underwent coronary arteriography (CAG) and QFR were continuously enrolled from May 2020 to February 2021. As a quantitative indicator of coronary physiology, QFR can reflect the functional severity of coronary artery stenosis. The target vessel measured by QFR was defined as that with the most severe lesions. Significant coronary anatomical stenosis was defined as 70% stenosis in the target vessel. Results: Compared with the QFR > 0.8 group, interleukin (IL)-6,
