Predictive Value of Gensini Score in the Long-Term Outcomes of Patients With Coronary Artery Disease Who Underwent PCI.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Gensini score is an effective tool used to evaluate the severity of coronary artery disease (CAD). Whether the Gensini score has predictive value for the clinical outcomes of patients with CAD after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has not been investigated.

Methods

All patients were from the Clinical Outcomes and Risk Factors of Patients with Coronary Heart Disease after PCI (CORFCHD-PCI), a retrospective cohort study involving 5,672 patients with CAD who underwent PCI, such as 2,110 patients with diabetes and 3,562 patients without diabetes, from January 2008 to December 2017. Patients were divided into three groups according to the tertile of Gensini score: first tertile (Gensini score <11 points), second tertile (Gensini score 11-38 points), and third t
