Data are expressed as mean±SD, or median (25–75 percentiles), or number (percentage). BMI – body mass index; CK-MB – creatine kinase MB form; eGFR – estimated glomerular filtration rate; FAR – fibrinogen to albumin ratio; HbA1c – hemoglobin A1c; LDL-C – low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LVEF – left ventricular ejection fraction; NLR – neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; PC-AKI – post-contrast acute kidney injury.
