ARTICLE HIGHLIGHTS
Research background
As a frequent complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the rate of perioperative myocardial infarction (PMI) remains high and patients suffering from PMI have poor outcomes.
Research motivation
To identify whether bilirubin could be a potential target for PMI avoidance.
Research objectives
To explore the impact of bilirubin levels on PMI and long-term prognosis in post-PMI patients.
Research methods
Logistic regression and Cox regression analyses were used to explore the association between bilirubin, PMI and its long-term prognosis.
Research results
Higher bilirubin was associated with a reduced rate of PMI and major adverse cardiovascular events.
Research conclusions
Bilirubin was a protective factor in PMI prediction and produced a better long-term prognosis in post-PMI patients.
Research perspectives
The study provides evidence of bilirubin as a therapeutic target in PMI prevention.
