Relationship between neutrophils to HDL-C ratio and severity of coronary stenosis
Background Lipid and inflammatory molecules play a key role in the development of inflammation. Neutrophil counts are used as markers of inflammation duration, and HDL-C is used as an anti-atherosclerosis component.

Deep learning analysis of the myocardium in coronary CT angiography for identification of patients with functionally significant coronary artery stenosis [PDF]
In patients with coronary artery stenoses of intermediate severity, the functional significance needs to be determined. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement, performed during invasive coronary angiography (ICA), is most often used in clinical ...

Uric Acid-to-Albumin Ratio as a Non-Invasive predictor for the Severity of Coronary Atherosclerosis
Background: Hyperuricemia is associated with coronary artery disease (CAD). Hypoalbuminemia is a prognostic marker of many cardiovascular diseases, including CAD. Objectives: This study investigates the value of the uric acid-to-serum albumin ratio (UAR)
