Usefulness of FT3 to FT4 Ratio to Predict Mortality in Euthyroid Patients With Prior Cardiovascular Events Undergoing PCI: Five-Year Findings From a Large Single-Center Cohort Study
ConclusionsIn euthyroid patients with prior cardiovascular events undergoing PCI, FT3/FT4 ratio might be a potential predictor of all-cause and cardiac mortality. Routine assessment of FT3/FT4 ratio might be a simple and effective tool for risk stratification in this specific patient population.
