Prognostic Value of Non-Traditional Lipid Indices for In-Hospital Mortality in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes by Rustem Yilmaz, Kenan Toprak, Ahmet Karagoz, Osman Can Yontar, Melisa Ucar, Halil Ibrahim Kokcu, Berkant Ozturk, Enes Kaya, Mustafa Yilmaz, Ersoy Öz

“…<i>Background and Objectives</i>: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a life-threatening cardiovascular condition with high mortality rates, necessitating accurate and early risk assessment to optimize patient outcomes. While traditional lipid markers, such as low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), are widely used, non-traditional lipid indices, including the lipoprotein combined index (LCI), atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), atherogenic index (AI), Castelli risk indices (CRI-I, CRI-II), and atherogenic combined index (ACI) may offer additional prognostic insights by reflecting the underlying atherogenic and inflammatory processes. …”

“…The treat and extend regimen, however, demonstrated superior effectiveness in improving visual acuity, particularly among treatment-na&amp;iuml;ve patients (number of injections: 7.89&amp;nbsp;&amp;plusmn;&amp;nbsp; 5.54 pre-treated; 9.54&amp;nbsp;&amp;plusmn;&amp;nbsp; 5.42 treatment-na&amp;iuml;ve patients).Conclusion: Over 2-year observational period, the treat and extend regimen emerged as a highly effective approach, particularly for those newly diagnosed, with a low risk of undertreatment. Despite its benefits, an unconscious shift to a observe-and-extend or &amp;ldquo;monitor-and-extend&amp;rdquo; approach occurred early in treatment, highlighting the need for tailored approaches to optimize patient outcomes in clinical practice.Keywords: anti-VEGF, visual acuity, treatment regimen, functional outcome, real-world results…”
