To Study and Explore the Predictive Effect of Insulin Resistance-related Indicators on In-stent Restenosis After Coronary Stent Implantation

Coronary atherosclerotic heart disease, especially acute myocardial infarction, remains the leading cause of death worldwide. Despite the development and improvement of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and drug therapy, which have significantly improved survival rates and clinical outcomes, the unresolved problem of in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a key factor limiting the therapeutic effect. Therefore, identifying and studying the risk factors and formation mechanisms of in-stent restenosis is an important clinical step in preventing and treating in-stent restenosis. Moreover, an increasing number of studies have shown that IR may have a significant impact on the occurrence and progression of in-stent restenosis (ISR). The traditional quantitative techniques for assessing IR are limited by cost, time, and manpower, while new biomarkers overcome these limitations and become a clinically feasible alternative with cardiovascular disease prediction capabilities. However, there is currently no large amount of data to prove the relationship between metabolic syndrome-insulin resistance (METS-IR) and in-stent restenosis (ISR). Therefore, we designed a retrospective study on patients with recurrent chest pain after percutaneous coronary intervention to evaluate the potential association between subepithelial restenosis (ISR) and metabolic syndrome-insulin resistance (METS-IR), thereby providing a basis for evaluating METS-IR as a possible risk indicator for ISR in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention.
