Trial Outcomes & Findings for Association Between SYNTAX Score and Leukoglycemic Index In Patients Wiht Acute Coronary Syndrome (NCT NCT07276256)

NCT ID: NCT07276256

Last Updated: 2026-02-25

Results Overview

The LGI is calculated as the product of blood glucose concentration (mg/dL) and leukocyte count (cells/mm³). This composite measure provides a single numerical value that reflects both metabolic status (via blood glucose) and hematological status (via white blood cell count). At baseline, LGI serves as an integrated indicator of participants' metabolic and immune activity. It is simple to compute and offers a practical way to capture two fundamental aspects of health in one measure. Higher values are considered worse outcomes because they reflect an increased metabolic and inflammatory burden

Participant milestones

Participant milestones
Measure
SYNTAX Score =<22
Participants with coronary artery disease and a SYNTAX score ≤ 22 will be allocated to this group. * SYNTAX score is an angiographic tool used to grade the complexity of coronary artery disease. * A score ≤ 22 indicates low anatomical complexity, typically associated with favorable outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). * This group will serve as the comparator for higher SYNTAX score arms, or as the primary treatment arm depending on study design. Eligibility Criteria for Assignment: * Patients undergoing coronary angiography with confirmed multivessel or left main coronary artery disease. * Calculated SYNTAX score ≤ 22 at baseline. * Meeting all other inclusion/exclusion criteria of the trial.
SYNTAX Score >22
Participants with coronary artery disease whose baseline SYNTAX score is greater than 22. This reflects moderate-to-high anatomical complexity and is commonly associated with increased procedural risk and event rates after revascularization. If relevant to the protocol, this arm can be sub-stratified into 23-32 (moderate) and ≥33 (high) complexity cohorts. * Eligibility criteria for assignment: * Confirmed CAD: Multivessel and/or left main disease on coronary angiography. * SYNTAX score: \> 22 calculated at baseline by two independent readers or core lab per protocol. * General trial criteria: Meets all inclusion/exclusion criteria (hemodynamic stability, renal function thresholds, etc.).
