Correlation of Serum Acylcarnitines with Clinical Presentation and Severity of Coronary Artery Disease.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies support that acylcarnitines exert a significant role in cardiovascular disease development and progression. The aim of this metabolomics-based study was to investigate the association of serum acylcarnitine levels with coronary artery disease (CAD) severity, as assessed via SYNTAX Score. Within the context of the prospective CorLipid trial (NCT04580173), the levels of 13 circulating acylcarnitines were accurately determined through a newly developed HILIC-MS/MS method in 958 patients undergoing coronary angiography in the AHEPA University Hospital of Thessaloniki, Greece. Patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome had significantly lower median acylcarnitine C8, C10, C16, C18:1 and C18:2 values, compared to patients with chronic coronary syndrome (p = 0.012, 0.007, 0.0
