Abstract
BackgroundSYNTAX score II (SSII) is an update of SYNTAX score that used clinical variables as age, sex, creatinine clearance, left ventricular ejection fraction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and peripheral arterial disease. Also, it is now already proven that SSII is a more powerful predictive tool than SS. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) is a widely used non-invasive evidence for subclinical or early atherosclerosis and it was proved to be an independent predictor for cardiovascular events. Most of the previously published articles studied the association between the CIMT with old cardiovascular scoring systems such as Syntax score I and Gensini score with debatable data about their correlation. we aimed to determine the relationship between SSII and CIMT in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD).MethodsA prospective study of 155 patients undergoing elective coronary angiography (CA) for chronic stable angina with thoughtful history taking, clinical examination, electrocardiography, echocardiography, CIMT measurement and SSII calculation. Patients with history of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), previous coronary revascularization either by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and pervious cerebrovascular stroke was excluded.ResultsMean age was 58.25±16.46 years with 79 males. Mean SSII score was 10.23 ±11.36, mean CIMT was 0.85±0.24. Correlation between SSII and CIMT using Spearman correlation showed a strong positive correlation (correlation coefficient r=0.752)ConclusionThere was a strong positive correlation between SSII and CIMT.
