Prognostic Nutritional Index is Associated with the Degree of Coronary Collateral Circulation in Stable Angina Patients with Chronic Total Occlusion O Índice Nutricional Prognóstico está Associado ao Grau de Circulação Colateral Coronariana em Pacientes com Angina Estável e Oclusão Total Crônica
No full textBackground: Coronary collateral circulation (CCC) can effectively improve myocardial blood supply to the area of CTO (chronic total coronary occlusion) and can, thus, improve the prognosis of patients with stable coronary syndrome (SCS). The degree of inflammation and some inflammation markers were associated with the development of collaterals. Objective: To investigate whether prognostic nutritional index (PNI) has an association with the development of CCC in patients with SCS. Methods: A total of 400 SCS patients with the presence of CTO in at least one major epicardial coronary artery were included in this study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the Rentrop score. Scores of 0 to 1 were considered poor developed CCC, and scores of 2 to 3 were accepted as good developed CCC. Statistical significance was set as a p-value < 0.05 for all analyses. Results: The mean age of the study cohort was 63±10 years; 273 (68.3%) were males. The poor-developed CCC group had a significantly lower PNI level compared with the good-developed CCC group (38.29±5.58 vs 41.23±3.85, p< 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, the PNI (odds ratio 0.870; 95% confidence interval 0.822-0.922; p< 0.001) was an independent predictor of poorly developed CCC. Conclusion: The PNI can be used as one of the independent predictors of CCC formation. It was positively associated with the development of coronary collaterals in SCS patients with CTO

No full textAstronomical sites have to be selected according to many factors whereas the geographic location of the site and the quality of the atmosphere above the site play an important role in the decision process. The following factors were chosen to create layers 1907 northern and 235 southern observatories: CC (cloud coverage), PWV (precipitable water vapor), AOD (aerosol optical depth), VWV (vertical wind velocity), and HWV (horizontal wind velocity). To estimate the astronomical importance of the sites, DEM (digital elevation model) and LAT (latitude of observatory location) layers were also included. In addition to the variations or trends, a complete statistical analysis was carried out for all factors to investigate the potential correlations between the factors. There is a clear difference between the northern and southern hemispheres. The exchange of meteorological seasons between hemispheres is also compliant with factors. The geographical locations of most of the observatories were found to be “not suitable”. There seem to be no apparent long-term variations and/or patterns in all factors
