Relationship between neutrophils to HDL-C ratio and severity of coronary stenosis

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
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.

Relationship between Coronary Artery Calcium Score and Coronary Stenosis

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2023
Background. The coronary artery calcium score (CACS) is commonly employed to quantify the degree of calcification in coronary atherosclerosis. Indeed, increased coronary stenosis severity is associated with a progressive increase in CACS.
