Data were presented as mean ± SD for normally distributed and continuous variables (Age, HR, SBP, DBP, APG, FPG, TC, HDL-C, and LDL-C) or median (IQR) for nonnormally distributed variables (CK, TG, creatinine, and reinfarction interval); categorical variables were reported as numbers and percentages.
AMI: acute myocardial infarction; HR: heart rate; SBP: systolic blood pressure; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; APG: admission plasma glucose; FPG: fasting plasma glucose; CK: creatinine kinase; TG: triglyceride; TC: total cholesterol; HDL-C: high-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; NSTEMI: non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; and PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention.
