Impact of Modifiable Risk Factors on Long-Term Outcomes after Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery.

CONCLUSIONS: In patients undergoing CABG, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and smoking, as documented preoperatively, were potentially modifiable risk factors that were independently and cumulatively associated with long-term risk of ACS or coronary revascularization, highlighting the importance of early identification and risk factors control for improving cardiovascular health after CABG.
