Abstract
Objective: In this study, we investigated the occurrence of no-reflow (NR) in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) and its relationship with a new systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) that determines inflammation. Methods: We studied 303 patients with acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation who underwent PCI for SVG disease. Results: NR formation during SVG PCI was significantly higher in patients with high SII (p < 0.001). NR occurrence was 12.8% when SII was ≤548 and 41.9% when SII was >548. Conclusion: Our study is the first to investigate SII as the state of inflammation and its effect on theSVG PCI. Patients with higher SII have a higher risk of NR duringanSVG for PCI.
