Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) pose a serious threat to people's health, with extremely high global morbidity, mortality, and disability rates. This study aimed to review the literature that examined the relationship between blood groups and CVD. Many studies have reported that non-O blood groups are associated with an increased risk and severity of coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndromes. Non-O blood groups increase the risk and severity of these conditions by increasing von Willebrand factor and plasma cholesterol levels and inducing endothelial dysfunction and inflammation. They have also been linked with increased coronary artery calcification, coronary lesion complexity, and poor collateral circulation. Blood groups also affect the prognosis of coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndrome and can alter the rate of complications and mortality. Several cardiovascular complications have been described for coronavirus disease 2019, and blood groups can influence their occurrence. No studies have found a significant relationship between the Lewis blood group and CVD. In conclusion, people with non-O blood groups should be vigilantly monitored for cardiovascular risk factors as prevention and proper treatment of these risk factors may mitigate their risk of CVD and adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Blood group types are associated with coronary artery disease. However, data are scarce about the impact of blood group types on coronary collateral circulation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between the blood group types and coronary collateral circulation. Two hundred and twelve patients who underwent coronary angiography in our department and had a stenosis of ≥ 90% in at least one major epicardial vessel were included in our study. Collateral degree was graded according to Rentrop-Cohen classification. After grading, patients were divided into poor coronary collateral circulation (Rentrop grade 0 and 1) and good coronary collateral circulation (Rentrop 2 and 3) groups. The ABO blood type of all participants was determined. The incidence rates of O blood group type were significantly higher in the good coronary collateral group compared to the poor collateral group (37.9% vs 17.1%, P < .001). The O type blood group was an independent predictor of good coronary collateral circulation (odds ratio = 1.83, 95% confidence interval = 1.56-6.18, P = .015). Coronary collateral circulation is associated with blood group types. The O blood group predicts good coronary collateral development among patients with coronary artery disease.

Abstract
The platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) is an integrated reflection of 2 opposite thrombotic/inflammatory pathways that are easily calculated from a complete blood count. The PLR initially served as a systemic inflammatory biomarker to predict the prognosis of neoplastic diseases. In recent years, the PLR has been used as a prognostic marker in cardiovascular (CV) conditions. In this review, we consider the evidence regarding the association of the PLR with CV disease (CVD) and its possible use as a prognostic marker of CVD. The role of PLR has been investigated in CV conditions in several studies. We assessed clinical trials using PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science (up to April 18, 2018) to evaluate the association between PLR and mortality/major adverse cardiac events in these conditions. Most of these studies reported significant relationships between a high PLR and diverse outcomes. In conclusion, we suggest that PLR is a cheap and easily available systemic inflammatory marker that can predict distinct outcomes in different types of CVD.

Abstract
Introduction Recently, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) has emerged as a significant inflammatory marker and a novel predictor of major adverse consequences in cardiovascular disease. Aim In this study, we aimed to explore the relationship between PLR and coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). Material and methods Clinical and laboratory data of 386 patients who underwent coronary angiography were evaluated retrospectively. The patients were classified into 2 groups as follows: poor CCC (group 1: Rentrop grades 0–1) and good CCC (group 2: Rentrop grades 2–3). The PLR was calculated from the complete blood count. Results The PLR values of the patients with poor CCC were significantly higher than those of patients with good CCC (153.9 ±26.6 vs. 129.8 ±23.5, p < 0.001). In the multiple logistic regression tests, PLR (odds ratio: 1.51, 95% confidence interval: 1.27–1.74; p < 0.001) and hs-CRP (odds ratio: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.03–2.11; p < 0.001) were found to be independent predictors of poor CCC. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis yielded a cutoff value of 140.5 for PLR to predict poor CCC with 79% sensitivity and 71% specificity, with the area under the ROC curve being 0.792 (95% CI: 0.721–0.864). Conclusions Our study revealed that high PLR is independently associated with poor coronary collateral circulation in patients with NSTEMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the relationship between neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with coronary chronic total occlusion. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Our study population consisted of 275 consecutive patients with chronic total occlusion. One hundred and thirty-eight patients with chronic total occlusion were included in the study. They were classified into 2 groups as follows: impaired CCC (group 1: Rentrop grades 0-1) and good CCC (group 2: Rentrop grades 2-3). The NLR was calculated from the complete blood count. RESULTS The NLR values of the patients with impaired CCC (4.5 ± 0.7) were significantly higher than of those with good CCC (2.7 ± 0.6, p < 0.001). In the multivariate logistic regression test, NLR (OR 33.36, 95% CI 8.189-135.7, p < 0.001), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP; OR 2.152, 95% CI 1.226-3.777, p = 0.008), estimated glomerular filtration rate (OR 1.167, 95% CI 1.049-1.298, p = 0.004) and systolic blood pressure (OR 1.068, 95% CI 1.009-1.1310, p = 0.025) were independent predictors of impaired CCC. The NLR value >3.55 yielded an area under the curve value of 0.957 (95% CI 0.921-0.992, p < 0.001) and demonstrated a sensitivity of 95% and a specificity of 90% for the prediction of CCC. A moderate correlation between NLR and hs-CRP was observed (r = 0.443; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our findings reveal that NLR correlates with the impaired development of coronary collaterals.

Abstract
The major initial triaging decision in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is whether or not percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the primary treatment. Current guidelines recommend primary PCI in ST-elevation ACS (STEACS) and initial antithrombotic therapy in non-ST-elevation ACS (NSTEACS). This review probes the question whether this decision can indeed be based on the ECG. Genesis of STE/NSTE ECGs depends on the coronary anatomy, collateral circulation and site of the culprit lesion. Other causes than ischaemia may also result in ST-segment changes. It has been demonstrated that the area at risk cannot reliably be estimated by the magnitude of the ST change, that complete as well as incomplete occlusions can cause STE as well as NSTE ECGs, and that STE and NSTE patterns cannot differentiate between transmural and non-transmural ischaemia. Furthermore, unstable angina can occur with STE and NSTE ECGs. We conclude that the ECG can be used to assist in detecting ischaemia, but that electrocardiographic STE and NSTE patterns are not uniquely related to distinctly different pathophysiological mechanisms. Hence, in ACS, primary PCI might be considered regardless of the nature of the ST deviation, and it should be done with the shortest possible delay, because ‘time is muscle’.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical utility of the Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio in the risk stratification of ventricular arrhythmic events is controversial. Therefore, we investigated the impact of CCC on these electrocardiographic indexes in the course of stable CAD. METHODS Two hundred three consecutive patients with stable CAD who underwent coronary angiography and had documented total occlusion of one of the major coronary arteries were enrolled in this prospective cross-sectional study. The Tp-e interval and Tp-e/QT ratio were measured by 12-lead electrocardiogram. RESULTS The Tp-e interval, cTp-e interval, Tp-e/QT ratio, and cTp-e/QT ratio were lower in the grade 3 CCC group compared with the others in all leads. Multivariate linear regression analyses was performed to identify the clinical factors affecting the cTp-e interval and was indicated that age (β = 0.261, P < 0.001), male sex (β = 0.334, P < 0.001), poor Rentrop grade (β = -0.228, P < 0.001), and NLR (β = 0.137, P = 0.027) were independent predictors of a prolonged cTp-e interval. CONCLUSION It could be concluded that the decreased dispersion of ventricular repolarization might contribute to the lower incidence of ventricular arrhythmias and SCD in CAD patients with a good CCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether the presence of angiographic coronary collaterals is a predictor of long-term clinical outcomes in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). BACKGROUND The presence of coronary collaterals on angiography provides prognostic information in patients with STEMI, but it is unknown whether they provide prognostic information in patients with NSTEMI. METHODS This was a prospective cohort study of 931 consecutive patients undergoing coronary angiography of which 269 (29%) had a NSTEMI. Baseline characteristics, angiographic details, and long-term clinical outcomes including death, recurrent MI, coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), stroke, and congestive heart failure (CHF) were collected. Each clinical outcome as well as the combined endpoint of death, recurrent MI, CABG, PCI stroke and CHF was compared in subjects with and without collaterals. RESULTS At one year, individuals with collaterals had significantly increased rates of the combined endpoint compared with those without (25% vs. 16%, P = 0.0001). On multivariate analysis, the presence of collaterals was a strong predictor of the combined endpoint of death, recurrent MI, CABG, PCI, stroke and CHF (HR 1.95, CI 95% 1.08-3.52; P = 0.027). Similarly, in the subset of 115 patients (43%) in whom the culprit artery was identified, the presence of collaterals was a strong negative predictor (HR 3.71, CI 1.31-10.57, P = 0.014), driven by a 13-fold increase in subsequent CABG. CONCLUSIONS In patients with NSTEMI the presence of angiographic coronary collaterals is a predictor of long-term clinical outcomes primarily driven by increased rates of surgical revascularization.

Abstract
Coronary collaterals (CCs) serve as alternative conduits for blood flow in obstructive coronary artery disease. We investigated the association of various components of blood pressure (BP) parameters with the the degree of coronary collateralization. Patients (n = 245) who underwent coronary angiography were included. Intraarterial BP in the ascending aorta was determined using a standard fluid-filled system. Readings of the conventional peripheral pressure were measured using a manual sphygmomanometer. All blood samples were drawn at admission, before coronary angiography. A total of 65 patients were found to have adequate CC development. Central diastolic BP and peripheral diastolic BP were found to be lower in the group with adequate CC. In multivariate logistic regression model, central diastolic BP and Gensini score were found to be independent predictors of adequate CC. In conclusion, low central diastolic BP in the case of severe coronary stenosis may be an important stimulus for adequate CC development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate the relationship between red cell distribution width (RDW) value and coronary collateral circulation (CCC) in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). METHODS The study population consisted of 322 consecutive patients with NSTEMI. The patients were classified into impaired CCC (group 1, Rentrop grades 0-1) or good CCC (group 2, Rentrop grades 2-3). Baseline RDW was measured as part of the automated complete blood count. RESULTS The RDW values were significantly higher in patients with impaired CCC than in those with good CCC (17.2 ± 2.3 vs 14.5 ± 2.5, P < .001). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, RDW (odds ratio: 1.52, 95% confidence interval: 1.30-1.78, P < .001), baseline creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), and absence of preinfarction angina were found to be the independent predictors of impaired CCC. In receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis, the RDW value >15.5 yielded an area under curve value of 0.783, with 77% sensitivity and 73% specificity. CONCLUSIONS Our study results demonstrated that, high RDW, high CK-MB, and absence of preinfarction angina were found to be independent predictors of impaired CCC.
