    The study analyzed 1513 patients who underwent successful percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion.

    Elevated neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio is independently associated with increased long-term mortality and cardiovascular events.

  • 3

    Each 1-standard deviation increase in NPAR correlates with a 50% higher risk of all-cause mortality and a 59% higher risk of cardiovascular mortality.

  • 4

    Time-dependent ROC analyses showed that NPAR improves discrimination for predicting all-cause mortality over 1, 2, and 3 years.

  • 5

    The study suggests that NPAR may serve as a simple biomarker for post-intervention risk stratification in CTO PCI patients.
