Eligible patients were those who met all of the following inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients with coronary artery disease who underwent PCI using OCT. 2. Patients from whom blood samples were collected during the hospitalization for PCI and in whom CUC could be measured using these samples. 3. Patients whose clinical information, including details of medical care, could be obtained from medical records. 4. Patients aged 20 years or older at the time of PCI.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients who underwent PCI for in-stent restenosis or stent occlusion. 2. Patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis at the time of PCI. 3. Patients who underwent balloon dilation with a diameter greater than 2.0 mm or atherectomy using a rotablator before OCT imaging. 4.
