    Left main coronary artery disease poses significant risks, making accurate bleeding risk assessment crucial for patients undergoing PCI.

  • 2

    The PRECISE-DAPT score is a validated tool for estimating bleeding risk in PCI patients, but its effectiveness in left main PCI is not well established.

  • 3

    This study analyzed patients who underwent their first left main PCI at a high-volume center in Taiwan from 2010 to 2023.

  • 4

    The primary outcome measured was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events at one-year follow-up, including all-cause death, MI, or stroke.

  • 5

    Statistical analyses included Cox proportional hazards models to evaluate the relationship between high bleeding risk and clinical outcomes.
