Abstract
Pre-procedural high Hcy levels and low HTlase activity were associated with worse long-term mortality in Japanese patients undergoing PCI. Moreover, Hcy levels are strongly predictive for mortality, independent of traditional risk factors. This may have implications for risk stratification and the therapeutic approach in this PCI era.
